Federal, State or Municipal taxes now or hereafter imposed in respect to all sales and the production, treatment, manufacture, sale, delivery, transportation or proceeds of the products specified against such sales (except income taxes) shall be for account of the Buyer, and if paid or required to be paid by the Seller the amount thereof shall be added to and become a part of the price payable by the Buyer.

There will be no additional charge for upkeep or replacement, but if, at any time, a period of one year has lapsed since the receipt of any order from Buyer requiring the use of such tools and fixtures, Seller may thereafter make any use or disposition of such tools and fixtures as Seller desires, without any accounting to Buyer for such use or disposition or the proceeds thereof.
- Cancellation: Orders accepted by Seller can be cancelled or specifications changed only with Seller's written consent and upon the condition that Buyer pay Seller reasonable cancellation charges, as determined by Seller.

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, SELLER MAKES NO OTHER REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO THE MATERIALS FURNISHED, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND HEREBY EXPRESSLY EXCLUDES ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. All materials made by us are inspected before shipment, and should any of the same prove defective due to faults in manufacture, or fail to meet Seller's written specifications, Buyer shall not return the goods, but shall notify Seller immediately, stating full particulars in support of his claim, and Seller will either replace goods upon return of the defective or unsatisfactory material or adjust the matter fairly and promptly. Under no circumstances shall Seller be obligated for any incidental or consequential damages or other expenses incurred by Buyer related to or arising out of the use of the materials provided hereunder. The advice of the Technical Staff of the Seller is available to the trade, but Seller, not controlling or supervising the subsequent manufacture, fabrication or installation of its products or their use after sales, does not warrant or guarantee such advice. Seller shall not be liable for any incidental or consequential or other damages, losses or expenses in connection with or by reason of such advice. Seller takes no responsibility for the suitability of Buyer's designs or installation procedures. If any material shall be manufactured or sold by Seller to meet Buyer's particular specifications or requirements and is not part of Seller's standard line offered by it to the trade generally in the course of Seller's business, Buyer agrees to indemnify, protect and save harmless Seller, including its affiliates, employees, officers and agents, against all suits at law or in equity (including arbitration) and from all damage, claims, threats, settlements and demands for actual or alleged infringement of any United States or foreign Letters Patent, and Buyer shall promptly and fully reimburse Seller for all defense expenses (including attorneys fees, costs, damages and settlement) incurred by Seller to defend any suit or action (including arbitration) which may be brought or threatened against Seller, including its affiliates, employees, officers and agents, for any alleged infringement because of the manufacture, use, sale, offering for sale or importation of the material covered hereby.
- Wages and Hours: Material manufactured by the Seller for delivery will be manufactured in conformity with applicable State and Federal laws in regard to wages and hours.
- Patents and Indicia: By accepting this order we assert that to the best of our knowledge the articles purchased are free from direct infringement of any valid U.S. Letters Patent and we agree to defend and/or settle (at our discretion) any suit for any alleged infringement, provided all papers thereon are delivered promptly to us within ten days of Buyer's receipt of same, and with Buyer's full cooperation in the defense and settlement. We hereby disclaim any representation, warranty, indemnification or defense of Buyer with regard to any alleged inducing or contributory patent infringement, or any other intellectual property violations since we are not responsible or fully knowledgeable of Buyer's end use.

We shall not be responsible for any such penalties which may be incurred, and hereby EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY LIABILITY RELATED THERETO. You are solely responsible for determining the finish you purchase and as a result agree to hold Seller harmless from any penalties, fees, expenses, costs or damages incurred in connection therewith.
