Buyer's right to accept any offer from Seller, or acceptance by Seller of any offer from Buyer is made expressly conditional on Buyer's assent to any of Seller's Terms which are additional to and/or different from any terms contained in Buyer's request for proposal, Buyer's purchase order, or any other communication from Buyer to Seller. Acceptance by Buyer of any offer from Seller is also expressly limited to Seller's Terms, and Seller hereby objects to and shall not be bound by any additional, different or conflicting terms, whether printed or otherwise, in Buyer's request for proposal, Buyer's purchase order, or in any other communication from Buyer to Seller, it being understood that Seller's Terms shall prevail notwithstanding any such additional, different or conflicting terms. In the event of any conflict between the terms appearing herein and the terms appearing in Seller's proposal or acknowledgment, the terms appearing in the latter shall prevail. In the event of any conflict between the terms appearing in Seller's proposal and the terms appearing in Seller's acknowledgment, the latter shall prevail. No modification or waiver of Seller's Terms is valid, unless confirmed in writing by an authorized representative of Seller. The Sales Contract shall only be for the benefit of Buyer and Seller, and not for the benefit of any other person, except as otherwise provided herein with respect to Seller's subcontractors.
2. CANCELLATION
Buyer may not cancel this order, or any portion thereof, except upon written notice to Seller and upon payment to Seller of the cancellation charges specified below.

Such cancellation charges are as follows:

Cancellation Charges (Percentage of Sales Price of Goods and/or Services) |
Less than 60 days 60 days or more |

Pro rata payments shall become due as shipments are made. Seller may require, in advance of shipment, full or partial payment or payment guarantee, whenever, in its opinion, the financial condition of Buyer so warrants.
