Terms & Conditions

All products furnished to the entity stated on the quote (hereinafter “Buyer”) shall be in accordance with the following terms and conditions unless otherwise stated in writing:

ACCEPTANCE AND COMPLETE AGREEMENT

Buyer’s order is binding only when accepted in writing by Seller, which shall be “AG Corporation FZE” for products to be delivered outside and Inside the United Arab Emirates,(hereinafter “Seller”).

The terms and conditions of sale are only those stated herein, which shall constitute the complete agreement between the parties and may not be altered or modified except in writing duly executed by each party. The parties agree there are no agreements, representations or warranties between the parties, oral or written, with respect to the products sold hereunder (including any made or implied from past dealings) except as expressed herein or as specifically agreed upon in separate written communication. No terms and conditions stated in or attached to Buyer’s communications to Seller, including but not limited to Buyer’s purchase orders the terms of which are hereby rejected, are applicable to these terms and conditions in any way and in no event shall such Buyer’s or any other terms and conditions be considered valid exceptions to the provisions of these terms and conditions. Trade custom, trade usage and past performance are superseded by these terms and conditions and shall not be used to interpret these term and conditions.

SHIPPING

Shipping dates are estimates only and are not guaranteed. Seller will use every effort to make shipments as scheduled and may make partial shipments. Seller shall not be liable for any loss or damage ensuing from late delivery.

EXPORTATION

If the products ordered are to be exported from the country of Seller, the quoted shipping dates are subject to receipt of all export documents and authorizations. Regardless of ultimate destination, the prices quoted are based on packing for domestic shipment unless otherwise stated in writing. Buyer agrees to provide Seller in writing with the ultimate destination and identity of the end-user prior to shipment if the products are to be exported. In the event that the shipment of the products would violate US export control laws or if the Buyer fails to provide destination and end-user information upon the request of the Seller, Seller shall be entitled to immediately terminate the contract without any compensation due to Buyer as a result of such termination and in accordance with the termination provision set out below..

PRICES

Prices quoted, unless otherwise stated in writing, are ex works and do not include sales, use, excise, value added or similar taxes or duties. Buyer shall pay these taxes directly if the law permits or will reimburse Seller if it is required to pay them. Buyer will provide tax exemption certificates or evidence of tax payment on request. The price quoted is based on the cost of raw materials, wage rates, shipping charges, freight, insurance premiums, landing charges and duties, railage and cartage applicable on the date on which a contract, acceptance, confirmation, tender or quotation is issued. Accordingly, any increase in such costs after such date and prior to the fulfillment of the contract shall be for the account of Buyer.

PAYMENT

Standard payment terms are net thirty (30) days from date of invoice. In the event credit has not been established, Seller reserves the right to require payment, or the issuance of an irrevocable letter of credit satisfactory to Seller and at Buyer’s cost, in advance of shipment. Any amounts not paid when due shall bear interest on a daily basis at the rate of 24% per annum or at the highest rate permitted by law (whichever is less), from the date of shipment until paid. Should there be any dispute as to whether the products conform to contract or whether any obligation has been properly performed by Seller, Buyer undertakes that, notwithstanding such dispute, it shall not withhold any payment due, but shall pay any such amount to Seller on the due date therefor. The remedy of Buyer in such circumstances shall be limited to an action against Seller for the repayment of all or any relevant portion of any payment effected by Buyer.

SOLVENCY

Buyer’s order will be deemed a representation that Buyer is solvent and able to pay for the products ordered. If Buyer fails to make payments when due or if bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings (including judicial composition proceedings) are instituted by or against Buyer, or if Buyer makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, Buyer will be deemed to be in default and Seller will have the right to terminate forthwith its obligations by written notice to Buyer, in which case the termination provisions set out below shall apply.

CANCELLATION

No products may be returned without prior written approval of Seller. Orders placed with and accepted by Seller may not be cancelled except upon Seller’s written consent prior to shipment and Buyer’s acceptance of Seller’s cancellation charges which shall protect Seller against all costs and losses. Seller reserves the right to cancel any sale hereunder without liability to Buyer (except for refund of monies already paid) if the manufacture or sale of the products is or becomes technically or economically impractical.

MANUFACTURE

Seller reserves the right to discontinue the manufacture of, or change or modify the design and/or construction of the products sold pursuant to these terms and conditions, without incurring any obligation to Buyer.

JURISDICTION AND DISPUTES

These terms and conditions shall be governed in accordance with the laws of the United Arab Emirates. All disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the United Arab Emirates.

INSPECTION

A full report of the damage or hidden defect must be forwarded to Seller so that it can arrange for repair or replacement. Failure to comply with this provision precludes Buyer from making any claim against Seller in respect of any damage to the products.

TITLE AND RISK

The title in the products shall not pass until payment has been received in full by Seller and in the meantime title is expressly reserved in favour of Seller.
Pending receipt of payment in full by Seller, Buyer shall store the products in such a way to ensure that they are preserved in the same condition as they were received, that they can at all times be identified as Seller’s property and are separate from any other goods in Buyer’s possession. Notwithstanding the foregoing risk in the products shall pass to Buyer upon delivery.

If any fault arises, the following steps must be taken:
Notify Seller of the product model number, serial number and details of the difficulty. On receipt of this information, Buyer will be given service data or shipping instructions.
On receipt of Seller’s shipping instructions, forward the product prepaid. If the product or the fault is not covered by warranty, an estimate of charges will be furnished before work begins.

WAIVER

VALIDITY OF PROVISIONS

In the event any provision or any part or portion of any provision of these Terms and Conditions shall be held to be invalid, void or otherwise unenforceable, such holding shall not affect the remaining part or portions of that provision, or any other provision hereof.

If performance is delayed for more than 120 days by any cause referred to above and the parties have not agreed upon a revised basis for continuing the contract at the end of the delay, then either party may after that period and while the cause of the non-performance still exists terminate the contract by giving not less than 30 days© notice in writing to the other party, in which event the termination provisions set out below shall apply.

This obligation shall not, however, apply in respect of deficient or delayed products and in respect of which Buyer has terminated the contract by reason of the Seller’s continual failure to remedy the deficiency or delay.
