The PO will be deemed accepted by Supplier upon the first of the following to occur: (a) Supplier making, signing or delivering to Company any letter, form or other writing or instrument acknowledging acceptance; (b) any performance by Supplier under the PO; or (c) the passage of ten (10) days after Supplier’s receipt of the PO without written notice to Company that Supplier does not accept. Company reserves the right to revoke or withdraw the PO, in whole or in part, prior to Supplier’s acceptance. By accepting the PO, Supplier agrees to comply with the terms and conditions contained herein and any other attachments noted in the PO and to sell the products (“Products”) and/or provide the services (“Services”) as described herein for the prices indicated therein. Acceptance of the PO is expressly limited to the terms and conditions contained herein (including attachments to the PO). No terms or conditions submitted by either party that are in addition to, different from or inconsistent with those contained herein or in the PO, including, without limitation, Supplier’s standard printed terms and conditions, and any terms and conditions contained in any Supplier quotation, invoice, order acknowledgment, confirmation, acceptance, bill of lading or other instrument, shall be binding upon either party unless specifically and expressly agreed to in a writing signed by duly authorized representatives of both parties.

Supplier will supply the Products and/or Services to Company at the delivery point identified on the PO (“Delivery Point”) and by the date specified therein or, if no date is so specified, within a reasonable time after Supplier receives the PO.
