The term of the contractual agreement between the parties, which shall at least include the duration of the project as well as the duration of any lease of Goods (including but not limited to the lease of a PowerBuoy®) shall be specified in the Purchase Order. The parties agreed that term of the lease of a PowerBuoy® shall commence FOB USA PORT to Japan, and shall end FOB USA PORT. Any changes to the lease will need to be by amendment to the Purchase Order and agreed upon in writing by both parties.

The Purchase Order shall become a binding contractual agreement between the Seller and the Buyer upon the execution of the Purchaser Order by the Buyer and Seller.

The Purchase Order, together with these General Terms and Conditions and the Specifications and other relevant documents referred therein, shall by this reference be all made a part hereof and shall constitute one element of the entire contractual agreement between the parties. All prior negotiations, proposals, and writings pertaining to any Purchase Order or the subject matter thereof will be superseded and supplanted once the Purchase Order is executed by Buyer and Seller.

The Buyer and Seller agree that these General Terms and Conditions shall apply and shall govern to the Purchase Order, and that in the face of any conflict between these General Terms and Condition and any other specific terms and conditions in a Purchaser Order, that these General Terms and Conditions apply to the exclusion of all others.

Before dispatching the Goods, the Seller shall carefully inspect and test the Goods in compliance with the Specifications.

The Buyer shall be entitled to attend such inspection and / or test at all reasonable times and places before, during and / or after the manufacture of the Goods.

The Seller shall inform the Buyer of the anticipated date of inspection and / or test that may be specified in the Purchase Order and/or other related documents referred thereto, and the Seller shall inform the Buyer as soon as reasonable prior to the actual date of inspections and/or test in order to allow Buyer and its designated inspection agent to attend the same.

If, as a result of such inspection or test, the Buyer is of the reasonable opinion that the Goods do not comply with or conform to the Purchase Order, the Buyer shall inform the Seller accordingly in writing and the Seller shall take such reasonable steps as may be necessary to ensure such compliance.

The Buyer's attendance at such inspection and / or test shall not be interpreted in any way to imply acceptance of such Goods, and shall not relieve the Seller from any responsibility for supplying the Goods in strict conformity with the Purchase Order and any agreed Specifications referred to therein and for correcting any defects which may be found during the guarantee period.

The Buyer is not obliged to pay for any Goods supplied in error or in excess of the amount ordered in the Purchase Order. Such erroneous or excess Goods shall be returned to the Seller upon the Seller's payment of all shipping and return freight costs.

The Seller shall provide the Buyer with a progress report showing the manufacturing status of the Goods as agreed in the Purchase Order or at any other reasonable time upon the Buyer's reasonable requests without any additional cost to the Buyer, and the Seller shall inform the Buyer of the estimated time of shipment.

The Buyer shall have the right, by written supplement mutually agreed in advance by Buyer and Seller, to make changes in the Specifications and drawings for the Goods covered by the Purchase Order.

If such change, which is beyond the scope of the Specifications in the Purchase Order agreed on by the Parties would affect the price or delivery date for the Goods, the Seller shall so notify the Buyer within ten (10) days of the instruction from the Buyer of such change and then both parties shall mutually agree in writing upon commercially reasonable adjustment in the price and / or delivery date to reflect the effect of such change.

While the Buyer and the Seller are in the process of making such adjustment, if mutually agreed and released in writing by both parties, the Seller shall comply with and perform such change in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Order during such time.

No substitutions by the Seller shall be made in the Purchase Order without a prior written permission of the Buyer.

The Goods shall be packed in a reasonable manner so as to ensure adequate protection until they reach their ultimate destination and in compliance with the Buyer's packing requirements as set forth in the Purchase Order.

The cost of all packing, boxing and / or crating, carriage, etc., for the delivery of the Goods from Seller to Buyer is to be included in the price specified in the Purchase Order. The cost of all packing, boxing and/or crating, carriage etc., for delivery of leased Goods from Buyer to Seller is the sole responsibility of the Buyer.

The Buyer's count will be accepted as final and conclusive on shipments not accompanied by the Seller's itemized packing list.

The Seller shall deliver the Goods in accordance with these General Terms and Conditions as well as any other specific terms and conditions in the Purchase Order.

These General Terms and Conditions as well as any other specific terms and conditions   in the Purchase Order that address matters of delivery shall be interpreted in accordance with "lncoterms 2010" (as amended) .

Upon mutual agreement that said defect is with Seller’s scope, the Seller shall then at its own expense and as quickly as possible, make such alterations, repairs and replacements as may be reasonably necessary per Seller’s Warranty. Buyer shall refer to the Seller’s Warranty document which will be referenced   in the Purchase Order.

However, in no circumstances shall Seller be liable to Buyer nor shall Seller be required to reimburse Buyer for any indirect, special, reliance, incidental or consequential losses, damages or expenses under this contract or any Purchase Order.

A new guarantee shall be applied under the same terms and conditions as those applicable to the original Goods, to parts supplied in replacement of defective parts or to parts renewed in pursuance of this clause for six (06) months after replacement or renewal thereof.

The payment due date shall be in accordance with the payment schedule document referenced in the Purchase Order.
