S3D is offering for sale products and services (collectively and individually, the "Product(s)") that are subject to the following terms and conditions (the "Terms and Conditions"). The Terms and Conditions set forth the legally binding terms with respect to the purchase of the Product(s).
The Customer, as identified by Customers of the Product(s) and/or services offered by S3D ("Customer"), are in consideration of the mutual covenants, agreements and provisions set forth herein and hereon, hereby agrees that the purchase of the Product(s) offered by S3D shall be subject to and in accordance with the following Terms and Conditions:
1. Orders for Product(s), Applicability
All Customer order(s) for Product(s) shall be subject to these Terms and Conditions and, if applicable, an authorized quotation issued by S3D. Such order(s), if accepted by S3D, shall have significance as a reference document only. The parties hereby agree that these Terms and Conditions shall govern and control the relationship between S3D and the Customer, that the terms and conditions contained herein shall supersede the terms and conditions contained in a Customer issued purchase order, and that any deviation from these Terms and Conditions needs to be expressly agreed upon in writing by S3D and the Customer. S3D reserves the right to refuse orders in its sole discretion, or to accept such orders on a separate contract form, or to limit the types and amounts of the Product(s) ordered. Acceptance of or payment for any of the Products constitutes Customer’s agreement to these Terms and Conditions.
2. Prices
Prices for the Product(s) shall be the then current prices for such Product(s) in effect at the time of acceptance of an order by S3D or in accordance with an authorized and valid S3D quotation. Prices are exclusive of all charges or levies of any nature including all federal, state, municipal or other governmental excise, sales, use, occupational or like taxes now in force or enacted in the future and, therefore, are subject to an increase in amount equal to any tax S3D may be required to collect or pay upon the sale or delivery of Product(s) purchased. If a certificate of exemption or similar document is required in order to exempt the sale from sales or use tax liability, Customer will obtain and furnish evidence of such exemption at time of placement of order. All prices are subject to adjustment on account of changes in specifications, quantities, shipment arrangements, and the like or the inclusion of terms and conditions which had not been part of any valid price quotation issued by S3D.
3. Payment
Unless otherwise specified by S3D in writing, the purchase price shall be paid exclusively into the bank account stated on the S3D invoice. A discount may only be deducted if it has expressly been agreed upon in writing. Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing, the purchase price shall be settled in accordance to the payment terms in the official and approved quote. In the case of late payments, S3D shall be entitled to charge interest as follows: two and a half percent (2.5 %) or the legal statutory rate, whichever is higher, on all amounts due more than forty-five (45) days. The obligation of S3D to deliver the Product(s) or otherwise perform hereunder shall be subject to the then current credit terms and policies as established by S3D from time to time, unless fixed prices have been agreed upon.
4. Shipment
The risk of loss, title in and right of possession of the Product(s) and responsibility for all transportation expenses shall pass to the Customer upon delivery to the carrier. Subject to S3D right to stop shipment of Products already in transit, such carrier shall thereafter be deemed to be acting for Customer regardless of the carrier used or the freight
terms. Shipment will be made "best way," either prepaid or collect, as requested by Customer. If Customer requests prepaid shipment, actual charges incurred shall be billed and shall be due and payable to S3D in accordance with S3D regular payment terms. S3D will not assume any liability in connection with such shipment, nor shall any carrier be its agent. All shipping dates quoted or otherwise agreed to by S3D are estimate only. S3D will use its reasonable efforts to meet scheduled dates, but assumes no liability for failure to do so. In the event that an order remains in S3D's warehouse for more than 14 days, S3D has the right at its sole discretion to either: (i) deliver product to Customer and invoice Customer, or (ii) charge a restocking fee of 25% of the invoiced price and sell the Product(s) to third parties. Any extension beyond the fourteen (14) day period specified herein shall require the express written consent of S3D. Deliveries are always made under retention of title. S3D retain the right of possession of the goods until Customer makes full payment of all claims arising from the business relation with Customer.

S3D shall not be responsible for delays or non-performance directly or indirectly caused by governmental regulations or requirements, acts of God, unavailability of materials, work stoppages, slowdowns, boycotts or other causes beyond S3D's reasonable control. In the event of delay due to any such cause, time for delivery shall be extended for a period of time equal to the duration of the delay, and Customer shall not be entitled to refuse delivery or otherwise be relieved of any obligations hereunder, or have any claims against S3D.
