(May, 2018; rev.3)
Unless they are superseded by an executed agreement, these sale terms and conditions (the “Terms”) shall govern the sale of all radio products and accessories (the “Products”) sold by SAF Tehnika and SAF North America, LLC (collectively “SAF”). These Terms shall further govern the licensing of all software products related to or incorporated into SAF’s Products (the “Software”). Should you have any questions regarding the application of these Terms, please contact SAF at info@saftehnika.com
PRICING
Given the competitive nature of SAF’s business, the price of its Products is kept confidential. Pricing for any Product or project may be obtained at any time by transmitting a request for quote to SAF at salesna@saftehnika.com for U.S. customers and info@saftehnika.com for all other customers. Unless they are superseded by a written agreement, these Terms shall apply to and be incorporated into all Quotes SAF transmits to its customers. All Quotes shall expire 30 days after they are sent.
ORDERING
After receiving a Quote, a customer may use the Quote’s prices to submit a formal purchase order to SAF at salesna@saftehnika.com for U.S. customers and info@saftehnika.com for all other customers (the “Purchase Order”). Once submitted, a Purchase Order shall be considered a formal offer for sale and shall be deemed accepted when the customer receives a written order confirmation from SAF (the “Confirmation”). Together, the Quote, which incorporates these Terms, the Purchase Order and the Confirmation shall constitute a binding agreement to buy and deliver the Product(s) described in the Purchase Order.
PAYMENTS
Unless the parties execute a formal credit agreement, all Purchase Orders shall be paid in full no later than five business days after SAF transmits a Confirmation and issues Pro-forma Invoice to the customer. A failure to pay within this period shall, at SAF’s sole discretion, be grounds for suspending or canceling the relevant Purchase Order. All terms for making a payment (wiring information, etc.) shall be outlined in SAF’s Quote. Payment questions may be directed to financena@saftehnika.com.
SAF’s customers shall be responsible for paying all banking fees and commissions associated with their purchase and all costs associated with shipping SAF’s Products from SAF’s facilities to a site of the customer’s choosing, including all carrier costs and any pertinent export or customs taxes. Should SAF pay any of these costs, it shall invoice them to the customer.
Each party shall be responsible for determining and paying their own taxes.
DELIVERY
All Purchase Orders shall be filled as soon as practicable and delivered Ex Works, as that term is defined in the International Commercial Terms 2010, at a facility of SAF’s choosing for pick up by a customer nominated carrier. All Products shall be invoiced at the time of their delivery (the “Invoice Date”). For purposes of construing these Terms, the Invoice Date shall constitute the date of delivery for each Product.
Title to each Product and all risks of loss associated therewith shall pass from SAF to the customer when the Product is picked up by the customer’s carrier at SAF’s facilities. As a courtesy, SAF may assist the customer in locating and hiring a suitable carrier to deliver the Products at the customer’s cost. In no event, however, shall SAF’s efforts to procure a currier be construed as altering the Ex Works delivery terms described herein.
CANCELLATIONS
SAF shall have the right to cancel any Purchase Order submitted pursuant to these Terms for any reason whatsoever by sending a written notice to the applicable customer. In the event of an SAF cancellation, SAF’s sole responsibility shall be a refund of the customer’s payment no later 30 days after transmitting its notice of cancellation. A customer may withdraw its Purchase Order any time before SAF issues its Confirmation. After SAF issues its Confirmation, however, all cancellations are subject to a cancellation fee equal to 20% of the Purchase Order’s value or, in the event of a partial cancelation, 20% of the purchase price for all Products cancelled. All pre-delivery Product changes, modifications or replacements shall similarly be subject to a fee equal to 20% of the original Product’s purchase price. Any post-delivery changes, modifications or replacements shall be handled as a return and new purchase.
By submitting the Purchase Order, each customer acknowledges the cancellation fees described above are reasonably based on the damages SAF will experience in the event of a cancelation, which may be difficult to otherwise ascertain, and further agrees such fee represents fair compensation under the circumstances and is not a penalty.
SAF’S LIMITED WARRANTY
SAF warrants all of its Products shall be free from defects in material and workmanship and will function in accordance with their specifications for a minimum of one year so long as they are used and stored in accordance with industry standards and any unique handling instructions provided by SAF (the “Warranty”).

LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY
In no event shall saf be liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages arising out of or relating to the sale or use of its products, whether or not saf has advance notice of the possibility of such damages. Saf’s sole and exclusive maximum liability for any legal claim associated with a sale completed pursuant to these terms or the warranty, regardless of whether such claim sounds in contract or tort, law or equity, shall not exceed the price of the product(s) sold to a given customer. By submitting their purchase order, each customer knowingly waives any and all claims and damages precluded by the foregoing limitations including, but not limited to, all claims associated with personal injuries (including any claims based in product or strict liability), lost revenue and profits, loss of technology, loss of rights of services, unfair competition and commercial losses of any kind.

Such Confidential Information shall be handled by each customer with the same care as the customer would exercise in handling its own Confidential Information, but not less than reasonable care under the circumstances. SAF’s Confidential Information shall not be disclosed to any third-party without SAF’s prior written consent unless disclosure is necessary to enforce these Terms or comply with a valid legal request, such as a subpoena, but then only to extent necessary to uphold these terms or comply with the law.
