All sales of products in this invoice ("Products") by Seller are subject to the following terms and conditions:

RICE INTEGRATION LIMITED WARRANTY.

Seller warrants that each Product sold under this invoice will, at the time of initial shipment, be in conformity with the manufacturer specifications for the Product and free from defects in material and workmanship (the "RICE INTEGRATION Limited Warranty"). Seller will, at Seller's option, repair or replace any Product that does not conform to this warranty or issue a merchandise credit for the purchase price of such Product, provided Seller is notified of the nonconforming Product in accordance with the Return Merchandise Procedures set forth below. Any covered repair or replacement shall be made within a reasonable time at no cost to Buyer, and the length of the RICE INTEGRATION Limited Warranty on any repaired or replaced Product shall be the remaining term of the original Product RICE INTEGRATION Limited Warranty. The RICE INTEGRATION Limited Warranty shall be void in the event that the Product fails, malfunctions or is damaged as a result of improper handling, installation, maintenance, removal, modification or repair, or is accidentally damaged, subjected to abuse or improper use, or is altered or damaged such that Seller is unable to verify the defect with its normal test equipment.

Except as specifically set forth in the paragraph above, THERE ARE NO REPRESENTATIONS OF WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND BY SELLER OR ANY PERSON WHO IS OR IS NOT AN AGENT, EMPLOYEE OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE OR AFFILIATE OF SELLER, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE CONDITION OR PERFORMANCE OF ANY PRODUCTS OR WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO ANY PRODUCT. THE BUYER UNDERSTANDS THAT THERE IS NO IMPLIED WARRANTY THAT THE GOODS SHALL BE MERCHANTABLE OR FIT FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Buyer acknowledges that except as set forth in the paragraph above, neither Seller nor any other such person has made, and Buyer has not relied upon any express or other warranty or representation (including without limitation, advertising materials, brochures or other descriptive literature) concerning any Products. Buyer acknowledges that he is not relying on Seller's skill or judgment to select or furnish goods suitable for any particular purpose.

EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY.

SELLER'S OBLIGATION TO INDEMNIFY FOR PATENT OR TRADEMARK INFRINGEMENT IS EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO ANY INDEMNIFICATION WHICH SELLER'S VENDOR HAS AGREED IN WRITING TO PROVIDE (OR BY OPERATION OF LAW HAS BEEN DEEMED TO PROVIDE) TO SELLER IN THE EVENT OF PATENT OR TRADEMARK INFRINGEMENT ALLEGATIONS MADE AGAINST SUCH VENDOR'S PRODUCTS.

Except for Buyer's sole and exclusive remedies set forth in the RICE INTEGRATION Limited Warranty set forth above and in the foregoing paragraph, Seller shall have no liability or obligation to Buyer or any other person for any claim, loss, damage or expense of any kind caused in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by the inadequacy of any Products for any purpose, any deficiency or defect in any Product whether or not covered by any warranty, the use or performance of any Product, or any interruption or loss of service, use or performance of any Products.

Seller shall not be liable for the following types of damages, whether or not Buyer shall have informed Seller of the possibility or likelihood of any such damages: (1) incidental damages, (2) special or consequential damages, including without limitation, personal injury or loss of business or profits, savings or revenues of any kind, or (3) other damages in excess of the purchase price for the Products. This paragraph shall survive the failure of any exclusive remedy.

PAYMENT AND SHIPMENT

FINANCIAL. All orders placed are shipped C.O.D. cash instrument (C.O.D. company check for Buyers with prior approval only). In order to save C.O.D. charges on an order Buyer may wire transfer funds to Seller. Please call for transfer instructions. Credit terms may be established upon approval. Seller must receive a completed and approved credit application and financial statement to commence credit approval process.

LATE PAYMENT. Invoices not paid within the specified terms above will carry a service charge of 1.5% per month, and Seller shall have the right to suspend or cancel performance under any or all invoices or purchase orders.

SHIPPING/INSURANCE. While orders are usually sent within 24 hours from the time orders are received by Seller's Sales Department, delivery dates are subject to Seller's availability schedule and represent Seller's best estimate of when the Products will be shipped. Seller shall not be liable for any failure to meet such delivery dates. Unless otherwise specified, Seller will choose the mode of transportation of the Products and will select a carrier who is not an agent for Seller. All orders are F.O.B. Seller's plant in Irvine, California. All Products are shipped at Buyer's risk and upon Seller's delivery of the Products to the carrier, "delivery" to Buyer is deemed to have been made, and the carrier shall be deemed to be an agent of Buyer and all risk of loss, damage, liability and responsibility for Products shall thereafter be on the Buyer. Freight and insurance charges are the responsibility of Buyer, and Buyer will be billed for such charges on the invoice. Should Buyer wish to be covered by his own insurance, Seller requires a written statement stating that Buyer will carry the insurance or will self-insure.

BACK ORDER. Back ordered items shall be subject to continuing availability of the Product. In the event of shortages, lack of supplies or a substantial price increase beyond the reasonable control of Seller, Seller reserves the right to renegotiate price and delivery schedules.

TAXES. All prices are exclusive of federal, state or local sales, use, excise or similar taxes applicable to the sale or to the Products sold. Such taxes, if any, shall be itemized on the invoice and paid by the Buyer.
