MYONEX ApS
Standard Terms & Conditions

1. Acceptance of Orders; Basis of Contract. All quotes issued by Myonex ApS (the “Company”) shall be non-binding invitations for offers by the Customer and shall only remain valid for a period of 14 days. Any and all documents and information related to the quote or any advertising produced by Company (including, without limitation any pictures, drawings and product specifications) are for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Products referred to in them. They shall not form part of the Agreement (as defined below) nor have any contractual force. Any purchase order constitutes an offer by the Customer to purchase the Products in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions herein (referred to herein as the “Conditions”). The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the terms of any such order and any applicable specification submitted by the Customer are complete and accurate. A binding contract, on and subject to these Conditions, shall be concluded upon the earlier of: (i) the Company’s written acceptance of the relevant purchase order; or (ii) dispatch of the ordered Products by the Company. The Company’s acceptance of any purchase order of Customer is expressly conditioned on the Customer’s assent to these Conditions and any and all other terms and conditions which the customer seeks to impose or incorporate, or which are implied by trade, custom, practice or course of dealing are hereby excluded to the maximum extent permitted by law. For the avoidance of doubt, the Customer’s acceptance of Products and/or services from the Company shall constitute the Customer’s acceptance of, and willingness to be bound by, these Conditions. The contract formed pursuant to the terms of this paragraph shall consist of: (i) the purchase order; (ii) these Conditions; and (iii) quote, and shall be referred to herein as the “Agreement.” Services requested following finalization of this Agreement, or necessitated by a requested change in Products and/or services after finalization of this Agreement, will be billed at Company’s then standard rates, unless a lower price is set forth in this Agreement, or the Parties otherwise mutually agree to alternative pricing in writing. Insofar as Company has agreed with the Customer to deliver the Products by instalments, each instalment shall be deemed to be a separate contract between the parties. Any delay in delivery or defect in an instalment shall not entitle the customer to cancel any other instalment.

2. Payment Terms; Late Payments. Payment shall be net thirty (30) days from the date of invoice unless otherwise specified by the Company in writing. The Customer’s payment obligations are absolute, unconditional, and not subject to reduction, set-off, counterclaim, or delay. The Company reserves the right to demand full or partial payment in advance if the Company reasonably determines that the Customer’s ability to pay debts as they become due in the ordinary course of business has become materially impaired. If the Customer fails to make a payment due to the Company under the Agreement by the due date, then, without limiting any of the Company’s other rights or remedies, the Customer shall pay interest on the overdue sum from the due date until payment of the overdue sum, whether before or after judgment. Interest will accrue each day at 6% per annum above the Bank of England’s base rate from time to time (but at 6% per annum for any period when that base rate is below 0%).

3. Delivery and Tender. Shipment terms will be EXW (Incoterms 2020), unless the Company expressly agrees to alternative terms in signed writing. The Customer shall be responsible for all shipping costs, insurance costs, customs and import/export duties and fees, value-added taxes, sales and use taxes, and/or other assessments on the delivery of products and/or goods (collectively referred to as “Products”). If Company consents in writing to Customer arranging for payment of insurance costs directly, as between the Parties, Company shall have no responsibility for any risk to Product that relate to transportation of such Products or insurance on such Products, and Customer assumes all risk with respect to transportation of such Products. Customer waives any and all claims of any type against Company, its employees, representatives and agents, including without limitation any insurance carrier of Company, relating to transportation of such Products. Unless definite shipping instructions are set forth in an accepted purchase order, the method of shipment and routing will be at the Company’s discretion. Risk in the Products shall transfer to the Customer at the time the Products leave the Company’s possession. The Customer shall bear the cost of any loss, deterioration or damage of the Products as may occur after risk in the Products has been transferred. Title to Products shall not pass to the Customer until the Company receives payment in full (in cash or cleared funds) for the Products. Until title to Products has passed to the Customer, the Customer shall: (i) store the Products separately from all other goods held by the Customer so that they remain readily identifiable as the Supplier’s property; (ii) not remove, deface or obscure any identifying mark or packaging on or relating to the Products; (iii) maintain the Products in satisfactory condition and keep them insured on the Supplier’s behalf for their full price against all risks; (iv) on request the Customer shall allow the Supplier to inspect the Products. Shipping dates, where stated, are approximate and not guaranteed.

4. Customer’s Acceptance of Goods. The Customer shall promptly inspect all Products purchased hereunder for damages, defects, and/or non-compliance with any applicable specifications. The Customer shall be deemed to unconditionally accept all Products purchased hereunder and waive every claim from any cause, including without limitation claims under the limited warranties contained herein, unless the Customer provides notice of such claim in writing to the Company within fourteen (14) days of delivery. Company shall have thirty (30) days from the date of such notice to cure any damages, defects, or non-conformities. Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy for Company’s failure to cure such damages, defects, or nonconformities with specifications within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice shall be, at Company’s sole discretion: (a) replacement of any non-conforming Products; or (b) refund of the purchase price in respect of such non-conforming Products. Customer shall in good faith consider any request by Company for a reasonable extension of the thirty (30) day time period if Company provides good reason for same, such as, by way of example only, time periods necessary to clear imports into some countries that are outside of Europe. In the event of any disagreement regarding specifications of Products, the Parties will be guided by the Product manufacturer’s label and other supporting information provided by the manufacturer.

5. Customer Right to Terminate. Customer will have the right to terminate this Agreement without cause subject to Customer paying: (a) the purchase price for any Products shipped by Company at the time of cancellation, (b) as to any Products that have not been shipped by Company at the time of cancellation, the sum of: (i) Company’s anticipated profit on such Products, which shall be considered a lost-volume sale, (ii) any restocking fees and other out of pocket costs incurred by Company from third parties relating to the return or resale of any Products, (iii) a fee representing Company’s reasonable costs incurred relating to the return or resale of any Products purchased in reliance on the Purchase Order, and (iv) Company’s acquisition cost for any Products purchased in reliance on this Agreement that Company cannot return or resell through reasonable efforts; and, (c) with respect to any services, (i) the price for any services provided prior to the effective date of termination, (ii) any costs incurred by Company in reliance on this Agreement, which cannot be avoided through reasonable efforts, (iii) reasonable compensation for Company’s efforts to wind up and/or transition any services pending at the time of termination.

In the event of a Default, the Company shall be entitled, in addition to any other rights or remedies permitted under the Agreement and by applicable law, to: withhold shipments, in whole or part; to recall Products in transit and retake same; to repossess all Products which may be stored by the Company for the Customer’s account; and to immediately terminate any services in process, in each case without the necessity of instituting any proceedings. The Customer consents that all Products that the Company elects, in the exercise of its discretion, to recall, retake, or repossess shall become the Company’s absolute property, provided that the Customer is given full credit therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Customer fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder, the Customer shall pay the Company all reasonably-incurred litigation and collection costs, including, but not limited to, payment of the Company’s attorneys’ fees.
