loss and shipping charges for Products returned remain the obligation of Buyer.

and may assess a re-stocking fee. Refunds are at the discretion of TurpCo, and
any shipping costs originating from shipments to the customer paid by TurpCo
will be deducted from any refund granted. Any refund granted by TurpCo applies

circumstances.

preparation for manufacture. Once an order is shipped a cancellation cannot be
enforced. See Returns for orders that have shipped.
9. FORCE MAJEURE. Seller will not be liable for any
delay in the performance of orders or in the delivery of Products, or for any
damages incurred by Buyer by reason of such delay, if caused, directly or
indirectly, by fire, flood, accident, civil unrest, act of God, war,
governmental interference, strike, labor difficulty, shortage of labor, fuel;
material or supplies, transportation delays or any other causes (whether or not
similar in nature to the foregoing), or arising from other contingencies or
events beyond Seller's control.
10. SUSPENSION OF PERFORMANCE. Seller reserves the
right at any time to suspend credit or change credit-terms when, in Seller's

satisfactory security may be required by Seller before shipment. Seller may
withhold all subsequent deliveries upon failure by Buyer to pay invoices when
due. Buyer shall be liable for all costs and expenses of collection incurred by
Seller.

this order, in whole or in part, shall be void, absent Seller's prior written
consent.

deform the clam shell packaging. This also applies to Products stored by Seller
at Buyers request.
13. ASSISTANCE AND ADVICE. Upon request, Seller at its discretion
will furnish, as an accommodation to the Buyer, such technical advice or
assistance as is available in reference to the products. The Seller assumes no
obligation or liability for the advice or assistance given or results obtained,
all such being accepted at the Buyer's risk.

products supplied were produced in compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act
as amended and the regulations and orders of the United States Department of
