I. CONTRACT FORMATION

A. Controlling Effect 
These standard terms and conditions of sale (the “Terms and Conditions of Sale”), together with the proposal/quotation (the “Quotation” and collectively with the Terms and Conditions of Sale, the “Contract”), shall govern the sale of products by Robinson Fans, Inc. (“Robinson”). The Contract shall be controlling and no differing or additional provisions or conditions shall be binding upon Robinson unless accepted in a writing signed by Robinson expressly stating that these Terms and Condition of Sale do not apply. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between these Terms and Conditions of Sale and the Quotation, the Purchase Order will prevail.

B. Additional or Differing Terms 
Absent such a signed writing as described in the last sentence of I.A. immediately above, signing or initialing by Robinson of any Purchase Order, Work Order, or other Purchaser documentation, or performance and/or delivery by Robinson, shall constitute assent and acceptance by Robinson solely of those terms and conditions of Purchaser which are consistent with and not contrary to the Terms and Conditions of Sale. The Terms and Conditions of Sale are and shall be deemed a notice of objection to all additional or different terms of Purchaser and a rejection thereof. Should the Terms and Conditions of Sale be deemed an acceptance (in terms of chronological sequence of document deliveries), it is expressly made conditional on Purchaser’s assent to all additional and different terms contained herein, irrespective of any correspondence, document or other writing issued by Purchaser stating that Robinson’s performance constitutes acceptance of Purchaser’s terms.

C. Written Approval Required 
All agreements, understandings, terms and conditionals must be confirmed and approved in writing signed by an authorized representative or Robinson.

D. Purchaser’s Acceptance 
This Quotation and the Terms and Conditions of Sale shall be deemed accepted by Purchaser in their entirety upon or by acknowledgement of the price for the Products set forth therein: (i) by means of oral confirmation; (ii) by the course of conduct of Purchaser; or (iii) by the return or delivery by Purchaser, wither prior or subsequent hereto, of a signed purchase order or work order.

E. Purchaser Authorized Representatives
Purchaser represents and warrants that each Purchaser Authorized Representative has sufficient powers of attorney to execute, and to bind Purchaser. No modification or revocation of such powers of attorney will be effective for purposes of the Contract until Purchaser notifies Robinson in writing.

II. SERVICES AND PRODUCTS

A. Products
Services and products (the “Products”) shall be defined and limited solely to the specific description of (i) the goods, equipment, parts and associated accessories and components to be designed, manufactured, assembled and/or delivered by Robinson, and/or (ii) the services to be performed by Robinson, all as expressly outlined in Robinson’s Quotation, or any modifications thereto agreed by Robinson and Purchaser in writing.

B. Supervisory Services 
In the event any services to be performed by Robinson as part of its obligations consist of supervising and/or inspecting the work of others, Robinson’s responsibilities shall consist solely of, and shall not extend beyond, the following:

  1. Robinson shall use its best efforts to ensure such work is performed within the agreed upon time parameters;
  2. Robinson shall be present at the work site while such work is being performed;
  3. Robinson shall take reasonable steps to correct or direct the correction of those incidences of poor workmanship which are or become readily apparent or obvious solely from visual observances which would naturally occur just by being present in the same location as such work;
  4. Robinson shall conduct a visual inspection of all completed work and perform such operational tests upon the completed work as are expressly provided for in the Scope of Work, and take reasonable steps to correct or direct the correction of those defects in material or workmanship which are readily apparent or obvious from such visual inspection or tests;
  5. Robinson shall not under any circumstances be responsible for supervising, inspecting or correcting every detail, method, material or other aspects of the work and shall not be a guarantor of the work of others or the methods or materials used in such work, but shall only be responsible for the limited undertakings as expressly described in sub-paragraphs (1.) through (5.) immediately above; and
  6. Robinson shall not under any circumstances incur any monetary obligation or be financially responsible for the correction of the work of others.

III. SHIPMENT TERMS

A. Risk of Loss 
All shipments are made f.o.b. Robinson’s designated plant or facility (unless otherwise specified in the Quotation or in a separate writing signed by an authorized representative of Robinson) and risk of loss shall pass to Purchaser once the items to be shipped are duly delivered to the carrier.

B. Delivery and Installation Cost

C. Packaging and Shipment
Robinson shall package all products in suitable containers in accordance with its standard commercial practices. Purchaser must notify Robinson in writing of any special or additional packaging requirements, which will be at Purchaser’s expense.

D. Delivery Equipment 
Purchaser shall return delivery equipment furnished by Robinson to the carrier within 48 hours after arrival. Purchaser shall pay all demurrage or detention charges on Purchaser’s delivery equipment and shall pay Robinson for the full cost of any delivery equipment that is not timely returned.

IV. SALES TAX

The purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) is stated in the Purchase Order and will be based on U.S. Dollars. The Purchase Price shall not include shipping charges and local or state sales and/or use taxes, if any. The burden of payment and the collection of applicable state sales and/or use taxes, if any, is on the Purchaser. Robinson as the seller, has not taken the collection of these taxes in to account in calculating the price reflected in its Quotation or any invoice. Robinson may change prices, by written notice, due to changes in customs duties, taxes, vendor prices, foreign exchange fluctuations, currency regulations, or other factors beyond Robinson’s control including Force Majeure, until the moment of Delivery.

V. DELAYS

The performance of all work and delivery of all equipment and other goods hereunder is subject to delay or impossibilities resulting from strikes, accidents, governmental actions or regulations, delays or stoppages in transportation, inability to obtain necessary services, materials or products from usual sources, or any other causes beyond Robinson’s control.

Any delays caused by or at the request of the Purchaser will be documented, invoices and charged to Purchaser as additional labor, overhead and material in accordance with Robinson’s then current standard rates. Purchaser shall, in the event of any such delays, pay interest to Robinson on all amounts which would otherwise be due to Robinson for the entire period of such delay, with interest of such amounts to accrue at the highest non-usurious rate. Purchaser shall also pay a storage cost to Robinson for such period of delay in accordance with Robinson’s then current standard rate.

VI. CREDIT APPROVAL

All orders entered upon or books are subject to approval of credit by Robinson. If Purchaser fails to pay for any one or more shipments when due, then Robinson shall have the right, in addition to other remedies, either

a. to suspend further deliveries,
b. to require cash payment on further deliveries, or
c. to cancel this Contract.

Should Purchaser’s financial responsibility become unsatisfactory to Robinson, cash payment or satisfactory security may be required by Robinson before proceeding with further deliveries. Such election by Robinson shall not relieve Purchaser from ordering, accepting and paying for the contracted quantity.

Should Purchaser’s credit request be rejected or reasonably revoked at any time prior to performance or delivery, payment of the quoted price for all work and equipment/goods shall be paid in full prior to performance of services and/or shipment of any goods or equipment.

VII. CANCELLATION POLICY

The Terms and Conditions of Sale and the Quotation are not subject to cancellation except with written consent of Robinson and upon terms that will indemnify Robinson against all Loss by said cancellation.

VIII. WARRANTY:  WARRANTY CLAIMS

A. Express Warranty 
Robinson warrants all equipment and other goods it manufactures in accordance with the Products defined in the Quotation to which the Terms and Conditions of Sale relate to be free of defects in materials and workmanship for a period of either ONE (1) YEAR from the date of installation (or, if applicable, start-up) of said goods and equipment at the customer’s/end user’s plant or facility; or EIGHTEEN (18) MONTHS from the date Robinson ships said items of goods and equipment per the applicable shipment terms set forth herein (the “Original Warranty Period”), whichever period expires first (or for such other period of warranty as expressly set forth in said Quotation or per separate written agreement signed by an authorized representative of Robinson). If any of the Products is subject to repair or replacement during the Original Warranty Period, such Product shall be replaced and the Original Warranty Period shall be extended for ONE (1) YEAR (the “Extended Warranty Period”); provided that, the aggregate warranty period, including the Original Warranty and the Extended Warranty Period shall, in no event exceed TWO (2) YEARS as of the date on which the goods and equipment were Delivered by Robinson hereunder.

B. Warranty Disclaimer 
There are no warranties, express or implied, which extend beyond the description on the face hereof and the quotation to which the Terms and Conditions of Sale relate. This proposal is made subject to the condition that no implied warranties shall apply, including warranty of merchantability, warranty of fitness for any particular purposes whatsoever, or any other implied warranty. Robinson shall not be bound by any representation or warranties not expressly set forth in this warranty provision of the Terms and Conditions of Sale.

C. Voiding of Warranty – Operation Limits 
The express warranty on the equipment does not guarantee against abrasion, erosion and wear, nor does the express warranty guarantee against failure due to operation under conditions which are in excess of design limits or operational standards and limitations reflected on the Quotation or, to the extent different, in the particular owner’s/operational manual or in any approval drawings. Purchaser shall operate the equipment in strict compliance with all operational standards and limitations specified within the particular owners/operational manual provided to Purchaser with such equipment. Any warranty claims forwarded to or otherwise made against Robinson must be accompanied by appropriate documentation demonstrating that limitations. Under no circumstances shall Robinson be held responsible or liable for Purchaser’s selection of, or failure to select, materials of construction which need to be incorporated into the manufacture and construction of any of the parts, equipment linings or other components forming a part of the Products in order for the finished goods or products to properly function in and endure any special, peculiar or extraordinary conditions, in or under which Purchaser will be using or operating such finished goods or products. Purchaser shall be solely responsible for making certain that any such special material and construction needs are made known to Robinson and adequately incorporated into Robinson’s design and manufacture of the subject goods and products.

D. Voiding of Warranty – Alterations, Improper Use and Failure to Follow Robinson Recommendations 
Any of the following will void the express warranty made by Robinson: (1) any alterations to the equipment or other goods sold by Robinson without its express written authorization, whether any such actions occur in the transportation, erection, use, maintenance or monitoring of the equipment or goods sold, (2) the failure of the Purchaser or its successors to observe operational and safety standards and limitations and design limits established by Robinson in the Quotation, the applicable owners/operational manual, or any approval drawings, whether any such actions occur in the transportation, erection, use, maintenance or monitoring of the equipment or goods sold, or (3) the failure of Purchaser to purchase the items recommended by Robinson for use with its product whether the recommendation was oral or in the Quotation. Purchaser represents and warrants that none of the goods or equipment sold by Robinson as part of its Products will be operated under conditions which exceed or violate any of the operational standards and limitations or design limits specified or established by Robinson (the existence of any of these prohibited operating conditions voids the express warranty made by Robinson).

E. Warranty Exclusions 
All items of equipment, parts and other materials specified, required or ordered by the Purchaser which, although intended to be included in, attached to or operated in conjunction with the equipment to be manufactured by Robinson under this Quotation, are manufactured and/or incorporated into Robinson’s work by someone other than Robison, shall carry only the guarantee and warranty as supplied by that separate manufacturer and shall carry no guarantee or warranty, express or implied, of Robinson, nor shall Robinson be liable in any way whatsoever for any such third party goods, or any failure thereof. EXCEPT FOR THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ROBINSON CONTAINED IN THE CONTRACT, IT IS EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED THAT ROBINSON MAKES NO OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES AND ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, FOR THE CONDITION, PERFORMANCE, MAINTENANCE, MANUFACTURE, OR DESIGN OF THE PRODUCTS. Purchaser agrees that its only recourse and recovery under these circumstances will be against a said outside manufacturer.

F. Remedy

  1. Goods:  1. Goods: Robinson agrees to replace any defective parts or equipment which are in breach of its express warranty, shipping as described in Section III.(A.), free of charge subject, however, to the dollar limitations set forth below, and provided Robinson has received written notice from Purchaser of such warranty claim within the warranty period specified hereinabove. In the event Robinson determines, in connection with its performance of any warranty work, that field service assistance is required at the particular operational location of the applicable goods or equipment reflected in the Quotation, Robinson agrees to provide such field service assistance at such location for the maximum time period of ten (10) days (weekends, holidays and travel days to be included in the calculation of this period); provided, however, Purchaser shall be solely responsible to pay the costs of all travel, meals, lodging and related out of pocket expenses incurred by Robinson in connection with it performance of said field service assistance. Should the required field service assistance continue for a period of excess of ten (10) days, all time and labor for the extra days will be billed to Purchaser in accordance with Robinson’s then existing standard daily rate.. 
  2. Services:  Robinson’s liability for any and all damages associated with the performance of the specific services, if any, included in the description of the Products separate and distinct from the design and manufacture of goods or equipment to be delivered by Robinson under the Quotation, shall end and terminate upon the inspection, testing and/or acceptance by Purchaser of Robinson’s services. Upon Purchaser signing an acceptance of the services, or upon Purchaser failing to sign such acceptance without submitting written objections to the services performed prior to Robinson’s departure from the work site, Robinson shall have no liability whatsoever with respect to the performance of services included in its description of the Products or in connection with damage or injuries to property or person, or death resulting there from, including any incidental and/or consequential damages, or occurring after such acceptance (or deemed acceptance). In the event Robinson is unable, through no fault of its own, to perform fan testing, as described in the Products, Purchaser, at its option, shall either pay Robinson labor, overhead and material charges, based upon Robinson’s then current standard rates, for the additional time Robinson must remain on site to complete such testing, or accept the Products as it is then completed.

G. Exclusivity of Remedy 
The remedies provided herein constitute the sole and exclusive remedies available to Purchaser upon occurrence of any breach of warranty or other default of Robinson.

H. Damage Limitation

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL ROBINSON BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS PROFITS, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES AND ANY OTHER INDIRECT DAMAGES OF PURCHASER OR END USER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT BEING LIMITED TO, DAMAGES IN THE NATURE OF LOSS OF USE OR PRODUCTION AND LOST PROFITS. UPON EXPIRATION OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD (PARAGRAPH 8A AS TO GOODS/EQUIPMENT) OR INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE (PARAGRAPH 8F(II) AS TO SERVICES) SPECIFIED HEREINABOVE, ROBINSON SHALL HAVE NO FURTHER LIABILITY TO PURCHASER WHATSOEVER FOR ANY DAMAGES, CLAIMS OR LOSSES OF ANY TYPE, AMOUNT OR NATURE RESULTING FROM OR ARISING OUT OF THE PRODUCTS OR ANY GOODS OR SERVICES, AS THE CASE MAY BE, FORMING A PART THEREOF.

Purchaser hereby waives any and all causes of action and rights to sue under theories of recovery in tort and strict/absolute liability.

J. Warranty for Third Party Work

Purchaser shall, with respect to Robinson’s performance of services, have those inspection rights set forth in Paragraph VIII.F.(2) hereinabove. Failure to so timely inspect or failure to timely notify Robinson of any claimed defects as required herein shall constitute acceptance of the services, equipment and good by Purchaser, precluding any subsequent effort by Purchaser to reject said items or work.
