GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS <br />This Agreement (the “Agreement”), between Brady Trane Service, Inc. (“Brady”) and the Customer (“Customer”), individually referred to as <br />a “Party” and collectively referred to as the “Parties,” is made on these terms and conditions. This Agreement shall not include any <br />additional or conflicting terms and conditions that may be contained in the Customer’s purchase order or other form, all of which additional <br />or conflicting terms and conditions are hereby rejected by Brady. If there is a conflict in the terms and conditions of this Agreement and <br />another agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Further, the Customer acknowledges and agrees that any <br />purchase order issued by the Customer, in accordance with this Agreement, will only establish payment authority for the Customer’s <br />internal accounting purposes. Any such purchase order will not be considered a counteroffer, amendment, modification, or other revision to <br />the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No waiver, alteration or modification of this Agreement shall be valid, unless made in writing <br />and signed by an authorized representative of Brady. <br />1. Acceptance, Pricing, Taxes, and Tariffs <br />This Agreement is subject to acceptance by the Customer within ten (10) days from the date of the proposal. If acceptance of this <br />Agreement is delayed or modified, prices are subject to adjustment. <br />The price stated herein is based on current known and applicable import duties, fees, charges, surcharges, taxes, or tariffs being imposed <br />on affected parts/equipment included in the quoted price as of the date of this proposal. In the event of any change or addition in any <br />applicable import duties, fees, charges, surcharges, taxes, or tariffs which occur after this proposal is submitted by Brady, the pricing shall <br />be adjusted accordingly, calculated on the percentage on increase or decrease in the applicable rates of such duties, fees, charges, <br />surcharges, taxes, or tariffs being imposed on affected parts/equipment. Customer shall be notified of any such price adjustment within ten <br />(10) business days of Brady’s knowledge of the change in such rates. Customer may request that Brady attempt to source parts/equipment <br />which are not subject to import duties/tariffs adjustments, and Brady will endeavor to do so if possible, subject to availability of such <br />parts/equipment, Brady’s contractual obligations and applicable law. If such alternative source of parts/equipment are available for use, <br />pricing and any delays or time for performance shall be adjusted to compensate for any price differences and delays incurred between <br />sourcing the original parts/equipment and using the newly sourced ones. <br />2. Payment <br />Terms of payment are subject at all times to prior approval by Brady’s financial department, and payment is due thirty (30) days from the <br />date of the invoice. Brady reserves the right to add interest at a rate of 1½% per month, or the highest rate allowable by law, to any <br />delinquent account balances after ten (10) days. If Customer has not made a payment on time, Brady may at its option, and upon five days <br />written notice to Customer, suspend or terminate service until all overdue payments are made. <br />In the event of default in payment, the Customer agrees to pay all costs of collection incurred by Brady, including but not limited to, <br />collection agency fees, reasonable attorney’s fees and court costs. <br />If the Customer terminates this Agreement prior to the end of the term, the contract amount will be pro-rated based on services completed. <br />Any payments will become due and payable at that time. <br />3.
