Vendor’s failure to comply with the terms and conditions set forth in this Section or in Buyer’s shipping regulations (including chargeback program) (“Regulations”) or in any applicable standards provided by Buyer to Vendor (“Standards”), in effect as of the date of this Order, and which are incorporated herein by reference, may, at Buyer’s option, result in the imposition of charges as set forth in such documents. Any such charges assessed may be deducted from any amounts due or which may become due to Vendor. Copies of the Regulations and Standards are available to Vendor upon written request to Buyer.
7. Merchandise furnished hereunder which is not in compliance with this Order, the Regulations or the Standards, which is returned by any of Buyer’s customers for any reason, which fails to meet Buyer’s quality control tests, which fails to meet Buyer’s carrier’s quality, drop or other tests, or which is or may be used in conjunction with merchandise furnished and rejected (or acceptance thereof revoked) under this Order or another order, may be rejected (or acceptance thereof by Buyer revoked) at Buyer’s option and returned to Vendor.

In the event that Buyer shall opt to receive a credit, Buyer may apply such credit toward any amounts due or which may become due to Vendor. Vendor agrees that Merchandise rejected or returned for any reason pursuant to the terms of this Order, whether or not such rejection is disputed by Vendor, will not be resold or otherwise distributed by Vendor unless all labels or other characteristics identifying Buyer and/or displaying any trade name or trademark of Buyer have been first removed. Authorization is expressly granted to Buyer to return Merchandise without additional authorization, and Vendor hereby agrees to accept such returns even without Buyer’s request for return authorization labels. Merchandise returned or rejected by Buyer is not to be replaced by Vendor without the prior written approval of Buyer. Vendor acknowledges that the Buyer does not inspect each item at receipt of Merchandise and that defects, imperfections, nonconformity with any representations, warranties or covenants set forth herein may not be discovered by Buyer until Merchandise shall have been purchased by its customers and returned to Buyer. Buyer’s inspection, discovery of a breach of warranty, failure to make an inspection or failure to discover a breach of warranty shall not constitute a waiver of any of Buyer’s rights or remedies whatsoever.
8. For all items ordered herein, Vendor will supply upon request and within seven days, samples of paper, design materials, CAD drawings, sketches, dimensions and all product information, of the ordered items to Buyer.
9. For all ordered items, Buyer is the exclusive and sole owner of any moulds, CADs or graphic designs used to create and/or build out/customise items listed in this purchase order.

11. Unless specified otherwise on the face hereof, the time for payment shall begin to accrue upon receipt of Merchandise at the Buyer’s Warehouse or receipt of a final invoice, whichever occurs later. Buyer agrees to not unreasonably hold Merchandise at first point of entry or clearance in the designated country of importation listed on the face hereof or communicated to Vendor, to prevent timely arrival at Buyer’s prescribed Warehouse. If EOM pay terms are set forth on the face hereof and the Merchandise or invoice, as applicable, is received on or after the twenty-fifth day of the month, End of Month terms begin on the first (1 st) day of the immediately succeeding month. If pay terms are set forth in both the “Initial Payment” and “Subsequent Payment” designations on the face hereof, then (a) the “Initial Payment” designation sets forth the terms of Buyer’s initial payment to Vendor for the Merchandise received which payment will be the aggregate purchase price for such Merchandise less the Reserve (as 1 defined in Section 9) and adjusted for any credits, debits, customer returns, refunds, allowances and unsold Merchandise (where applicable) as of the time of such payment (collectively, “Adjustments”), and (b) the “Subsequent Payment” designation sets forth the terms of any subsequent payment due from Buyer to Vendor which payment will be the Receive after Adjustments. If no payment terms are set forth in the “Subsequent Payment” designation, then the “Initial Payment” will be the aggregate purchase price for such Merchandise after Adjustments. Payment of all or any portion of the invoice does not constitute acceptance of any merchandise covered by this Order and is without prejudice to any and all rights, remedies, claims or defenses of Buyer against Vendor and/or any third party.
12. Until date of shipment or delivery to Buyer, Vendor shall meet its lower prices and the lower prices of legitimate competition or accept cancellation at Buyer’s option. Buyer, in its sole discretion, shall determine the price at which Merchandise shall be offered for sale to its customers and shall retain all handling and shipping charges collected from its customers.

Confidential Information shall not include any information of Buyer that is lawfully required to be disclosed by Vendor to any governmental agency or is otherwise required to be disclosed by law, provided that before making such disclosure Vendor shall give Buyer an adequate opportunity to interpose an objection or take action to assure confidential handling of such information. Vendor shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any person or entity except employees of Vendor as required in the performance of their employment-related duties in connection with this Order, nor will Vendor use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than those purposes expressly contemplated herein. Vendor shall not use any information obtained from Buyer’s customers (e.g., through warranty cards or otherwise) to offer for sale to such customers any goods or services. Vendor shall not include with any Merchandise, any information that would enable Buyer’s customers to acquire, either directly or indirectly, any additional merchandise from persons other than Buyer without first obtaining Buyer’s written consent. In the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Section by Vendor, Buyer shall be entitled to obtain from any court of competent jurisdiction, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, including, but not limited to temporary restraining orders, which remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies to which Buyer may be entitled. Vendor agrees that the Confidential Information referred to in this Section is valuable and unique and that disclosure or use thereof in breach of this Section will result in immediate irreparable injury to Buyer. Vendor shall inform those persons or entities having access or exposure to Confidential Information hereunder, of Vendor’s obligations under this Section.

The arbitration shall be conducted at the Riga International Arbitration Court in accordance with its Arbitration Rules in effect at the time of the arbitration, except as they may be modified herein or by mutual agreement of the parties. The Parties agree to carry out any award without delay and waive their right to any form of recourse based on ground other than those contained in the United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards of 1958 insofar as such waiver can validly be made. The number of arbitrators shall be one (1); the arbitrator shall be selected and appointed Riga International Arbitration Association. The seat, or legal place, of arbitration shall be Riga, Latvia and the language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. Provided that either party may submit testimony or documentary evidence in any language if it so furnishes, upon the request of the other party, a translation into English of any such testimony or documentary evidence. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the Parties. Judgement upon the award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof or having jurisdiction over the relevant party or its assets. The costs of the arbitrator and arbitral hearings shall be borne by the losing party or as the arbitrator otherwise directs. The parties hereby waive any jurisdictional or venue defenses available to them and further consent to service of process by e-mail at the email addresses listed on the face of this agreement. Should the email address no longer be valid or cease to receive communications, the Parties agree to retain such proof of rejection of the electronic communication and agree to service of process by mail. Contractor acknowledges that Manager will have no adequate remedy at law in the event Contractor ceases work due to any dispute and hereby agrees that Manager shall be entitled to equitable relief by way of temporary and permanent injunction, and such other and further relief at law or equity as any arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction may deem just and proper, in addition to any and all other remedies provided for herein.
15. No waiver by Buyer of any term, provision or condition hereof shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any other term, provision or condition of this Order, or a waiver of the same or of any other term, provision or condition with regard to subsequent transactions or subsequent parts of the same transaction, including without limitation, subsequent shipments under this Order.
16. If any provision contained in this Order shall be determined to be unenforceable or prohibited by law, then such provision shall be void, and the remaining provisions herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
17. Vendor shall not issue any publicity or press release regarding Buyer or Buyer’s activities hereunder without first obtaining Buyer’s prior written approval and consent to such release.
18. This Order and any other written warranties and specifications, the Regulations and Standards, and the terms, conditions and agreements herein and therein,
constitute the full understanding of the parties hereto and a complete and exclusive statement of the terms of the parties’ agreement concerning the Merchandise
furnished hereunder. Vendor hereby irrevocably cancels any and all terms and conditions set forth and presented to Buyer and acknowledges that this set of terms and conditions shall at all costs prevail.
