IMO INDUSTRIES (hereinafter referred to as "IMO Industries") proposes to furnish the Purchaser the products (hereinafter terms "Products"), subject to the following terms and conditions:
1. DELIVERY: Unless otherwise agreed, Imo Industries will furnish its Products f.o.b. its factory. Delivery to the transporting carrier shall constitute delivery to the purchaser, and transfer of title subject to the provision of paragraph 2, below.
If shipment or any other act or condition affecting payment shall be delayed on account of Purchaser, payment shall become due when Purchaser is notified that Imo Industries is ready to ship, and the product shall thereafter be held at Purchaser's risk and expense. If partial shipments are made, proportionate payments shall become due and payable on the partial shipments.
The specified shipment is subject to any delay on the part of the Purchaser in supplying IMO Industries with necessary data, or approved drawings as may be required, or any changes therein at the Purchaser's instance, and to delays due to causes beyond Imo Industries' reasonable control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, or acts of Purchaser, fires, floods, strikes, accidents, wrecks, delays in transportation, embargoes, car shortages, acts of civil or military authority, compliance with priority orders or preferred ratings issued by the U.S. Government, delay by supplier of material, shortages of material, unusually severe weather, or any inability to obtain necessary labor, materials or manufacturing facilities due to any such causes; and in the event of delay due to any such cause, the time specified for shipment or completion shall be extended during the continuation of such delay and a reasonable time therafter to allow for shipment or completion. If changes in specifications or drawings are made at the instance of the Purchaser, and accepted by IMO Industries, IMO Industries shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment in the price, delivery date, or both.
Delivery dates are approximate. Delivery dates and prices are based on prompt receipt by IMO Industries of order and all information necessary to permit Imo Industries to proceed with work immediately and without interruption; satisfactory assurance of compliance with the terms of payment agreed upon; and if applicable such evidence as Imo Industries may request that any required export or import license has been issued. Prices will be subject to adjustment in accordance with the provisions of the annexed price adjustment clause, if any.
2. TITLE: Without relieving the Purchaser from obligation to make payment as provided for and without reference to the form of invoice that may be used by Imo Industries, it is agreed that title, to the extent of a security interest in the Products furnished, is reserved in IMO Industries until the purchase price (including any extensions of payment whether evidenced by note or otherwise) shall have been fully paid in cash, and the Products shall remain personal property whatever may be the mode of its attachment to realty or other property, until fully paid for in cash; and the Purchaser agrees to perform all acts which may be necessary to perfect and assure retention of title in Imo Industries as aforesaid. In case of failure by the Purchaser to make any payment when due, it is expressly understood that it shall be optional with IMO Industries to take exclusive possession of the Products wherever found and remove same without legal process, all at the expense of the Purchaser. In the event of default by Purchaser, the amount of damage to Imo Industries being substantial and difficult or impossible to ascertain, it is hereby agreed that any payments which may have been made to Imo Industries shall be retained by it as liquidated damages without prejudice to its right of recovery for further damage it may suffer from any cause arising out of such default.
3. STANDARD WARRANTY: IMO Industries warrants that the Products will be free from defects in title, and so far as of its own manufacture, will conform, in the manner herein provided, to the applicable specifications which are made a part hereof, and will be free from defects in material and workmanship, and should any part of it be found, when properly installed, maintained and used under specified service conditions, within one year after date of notification of completion at Imo Industries' plant or shipment by Imo Industries, whichever is the earlier, to have been defective or nonconforming with the specifications, Imo Industries will repair or replace said part f.o.b. its factory, provided the original part is returned to its factory transportation prepaid and Imo Industries inspection reveals it to have been defective or nonconforming within the terms of this warranty. No device or part shall be returned without giving prompt notice of nonconformance or defect to Imo Industries and obtaining its prior written authorization. IMO Industries shall in no event be held liable for damage or delay caused by nonconformance or a defect in material or workmanship, and no allowance will be made for repairs or alterations unless made with its written approval. Purchaser, or any user claiming through Purchaser, assumes all liability for the consequences of the use of misuse thereof by itself, or its employees, or by other.
Equipment and accessories not of our manufacture are warranted to only the extent of the original manufacturer. Imo Industries shall not be liable for damage of any kind resulting from erosive, corrosive, or other harmful action of any gases, liquids, or any other substance handled by the Products. The foregoing is in lieu of all other warranties by, and obligations or liabilities of, IMO Industries, or its representatives, whether express, implied or statutory; and SINCE THE PRODUCTS ARE THE SUBJECT OF SPECIFICATIONS, AS AFORESAID, NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR THE PURPOSE IS APPLICABLE.
IMO Industries assumes no responsibility for damages due to deterioration during periods of storage by the Purchaser prior to installation and operation. If provided for in the proposal, for an extra charge, Imo will, if notified prior to shipment that the Equipment is to be stored, apply preservatives to minimize the deterioration.
4. INSURANCE: Fire and extended coverage insurance in an amount sufficient to protect IMO Industries' interest in the Products is to be obtained from and maintained with an insurer satisfactory to Imo Industries by and at the expense of the Purchaser from the time of delivery until the Products have been fully paid for in cash. The Purchaser shall assume all losses resulting from any cause that may not be covered by insurance.
5. TAXES: The Purchaser shall pay to Imo Industries in addition to the purchase price, the amount of any excise, sales, privilege, use or any other local, state or federal tax which is payable by Imo Industries because of the acceptance of any order, or the sale, delivery, installation, or use of the Products covered hereby.
6. SPECIFICATIONS: Any IMO Industries' specifications referred to herein, or annexed hereto, are a standard form covering products substantially identical in type and character to that purchased but there may be variations therefrom in the details of design and construction of any particular Product. The provisions in the specifications are descriptive and are not to be construed as warranties. Imo Industries reserves the right to make such changes in details of design and construction as shall, in its judgment, constitute an improvement over such former practice as may be shown or described in the specifications. IMO Industries does not supply detailed or shop working drawings of its Products.
7. PATENTS: Imo Industries shall indemnify the Purchaser for any liability the Purchaser may incur because of claims of infringement of United states apparatus patents by the Products manufactured by IMO Industries. The Purchaser shall indemnify Imo Industries for any liability IMO Industries may incur because of claims of infringement of United States process patents in the use of the Products furnished hereunder.

9. EMERGENCIES: For contracts or orders with a price of $200,000 or more and/or for development contracts of a special nature, where Imo Industries' performance or completion of such contracts or orders is delayed or suspended for a protracted period, directly or indirectly, as the result of war, national emergency, federal or state statute of government rules or regulation, priority controls, defense efforts, or any like cause (as distinguished from the normal delays in manufacturing caused by factors beyond the control of the Manufacturer, such as strikes, fires, traffic embargoes, etc.) either STANDARD CONDITIONS OF SALE
