THE FOREGOING WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE AND IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES WHETHER WRITTEN, ORAL, OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ALL OF WHICH ARE DISCLAIMED BY SELLER AND EXCLUDED FROM THIS AGREEMENT. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller assumes no responsibility for the results obtained by the use of the material whether singularly or in combination with other products or for the carpeting or other product to which the material is affixed or with which it is combined or for any reaction or effect of the material on any such product.

No claim of any kind, whether as to goods delivered or for non-delivery of goods, shall be greater in amount than the purchase price of the goods in respect of which such damages are claimed; and failure to give written notice of claim within ninety (90) days from the date of delivery, shall constitute a waiver by Buyer of all claims in respect of such goods. No charges or expenses incident to any claims will be allowed unless approved by an authorized representative of Seller. Seller shall have an opportunity to inspect any materials which are claimed to be defective prior to return of the materials by Buyer to Seller. No claim will be allowable after the goods have been treated or processed in any manner.

4. SELLER’S LIABILITY. Seller shall not be liable for prospective profits or special, indirect or consequential damages, nor shall recovery of any kind against Seller be greater than the amount of the purchase price of the specific material sold and causing the alleged damage. Buyer assumes all risk and liability of damage after the materials are delivered by Seller to the carrier.

5. CREDIT. The terms of payment applicable to this order are Seller’s regular terms or those specifically quoted to Buyer. In the event Buyer fails to fulfill the terms of payment, or in case Seller shall have any doubt at any time as to Buyer’s financial responsibility, Seller may decline to make further deliveries except upon receipt of cash or satisfactory security.

7. TAXES. Buyer shall reimburse Seller for all taxes, excises or other charges which Seller may be required to pay to any government (national, state or local) upon the sale, production or transportation of the commodities sold hereunder.

8. BUYER’S FAILURE TO TAKE QUANTITY ORDERED. Any portion of this order not taken by customer in the month originally specified may be postponed or cancelled at Seller’s option without tender or notice to the customer. Such postponement or cancellation shall not affect any remaining portion on the order.

9. FORCE MAJEURE. Seller shall not be liable, and the Buyer shall have no right in respect of any delay in delivery or failure to deliver any material named herein, or of the nonperformance or delay in performance of any term or condition of this agreement, directly or indirectly, resulting from fire, explosion, accident, flood, labor trouble or shortage, war, any act of or authorized by any governmental agency, inability to obtain suitable material, equipment, fuel, power or transportation, or Act of God, or arising from any and all contingencies, happenings or causes beyond the control of Seller.

10. FREIGHT CHARGES.
