These terms and conditions govern the sale of Products (Product or Products) and provisions of services (Services) by LEDdynamics, Inc. (LDI) and its affiliates. These terms and conditions (Agreement) take precedence over Buyer’s supplemental or conflicting terms and conditions to which notice of objection is hereby given. Neither Seller’s commencement of performance or delivery shall be deemed or construed as acceptance of Buyer’s supplemental or conflicting terms and conditions.

LDI’s failure to object to conflicting or additional terms will not change or add to the terms of this agreement. Buyer’s acceptance of the Products and/or Services from Seller shall be deemed to constitute acceptance of the terms and conditions contained herein. Their terms and conditions may only be waived or amended in a written agreement signed by an authorized representative of the Seller.

1.) Orders:

All orders placed by Buyer are subject to acceptance by Seller. Orders may not be canceled or rescheduled without Seller’s written consent. All orders must identify the products, unit quantities, part numbers, applicable prices and requested delivery dates of the Products being purchased. Seller may in its sole discretion allocate Product among its Customers. Seller may designate certain Products and Services as non-cancelable, non-returnable (NCNR) and the sale of such Products shall be subject to the special terms and conditions contained in Seller’s Customer Acknowledgment, which shall prevail and supersede any inconsistent terms and conditions contained herein or elsewhere.

2.) Prices:
a.) The prices of the Products are those prices specified on the front of the invoice. Pricing for undelivered Products may be increased in the event of an increase in Seller’s cost, change in market conditions, or any other causes beyond the Seller’s reasonable control.

In the event of default by Buyer, Seller shall be entitled to costs, fees, and expenses, including but not limited to recovery of attorney fees, court costs and fees, and collections costs.

d) Seller reserves the right to establish and/or change credit and payment terms extended to Buyer when, in Seller’s sole opinion, Buyer’s financial condition or previous payment record warrants such action. Further, on delinquent accounts, Seller shall not be obligated to continue performance under any agreement with Buyer.

e) Any payment received from Buyer may be applied by Seller against any obligation owing from Buyer to Seller, regardless of any statement appearing on or referring to such payment, without discharging Buyer’s liability from any additional amounts owing from Buyer to Seller, and the acceptance by Seller of such payment shall not constitute a waiver of Seller’s right to pursue the collection of any remaining balance.
