government members of National Purchasing Partners, LLC. In the event the terms of this Agreement

way impair the right of Purchaser to reject nonconforming Products, or to avail itself of any other remedies to
which it may be entitled.
8.2 If any of the Products are found at any time to be defective in material or workmanship,
damaged, or otherwise not in conformity with the requirements of this Agreement or any applicable Purchase

either to (i) return any damaged, non -conforming or defective Products to Vendor for correction or

or defective Products with conforming Products. If Purchaser elects option (ii) in the preceding sentence and
Vendor fails promptly to make the necessary inspection, removal and replacement, Purchaser, at its option,

not constitute acceptance of the Products covered by such invoice, and acceptance by Purchaser shall not
relieve Vendor of its warranties or other obligations under this Agreement.
8.3 The provisions of this Article shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE 9 — SUBSTITUTIONS
Except as otherwise permitted hereunder, Vendor may not make any substitutions of Products, or any
portion thereof, of any kind without the prior written consent of Purchaser.

explicitly rejected. Such other general terms and conditions shall only apply if and insofar as explicitly confirmed by Seller in a separate document. These terms and conditions supersede
any prior or contemporaneous agreement or correspondence between the parties. Acceptance of these General Terms (including all provisions hereto), is a key stipulation of Seller, and

period of thirty (30) days, unless explicitly stated otherwise in the offer.
c. The agreement is contracted as soon as Buyer's full and unconditional acceptance of the offer has been received by Seller. This acceptance implies that the Buyer consents to the
applicability of these General Terms and, insofar as necessary, waives the declaration of applicability of the Buyer's own general terms and conditions of purchase (or of whatever kind).
d. Seller is only bound by offers and contracts produced and/or concluded by representatives, commercial agents or intermediaries after a written order confirmation by Seller.
