APPLICATION AND SCOPE:
The terms and conditions here apply to proposals made and to purchase orders received by Modular Devices, Inc. No conditions stated by the Buyer in its purchase order or orders shall be binding upon the Seller if in conflict with, inconsistent with, or in addition to the terms here and conditions contained here, unless expressly accepted in writing by Seller. Seller's failure to object to any provision contained in any communication or purchase order from Buyer shall not be deemed a waiver of these terms and conditions. All orders or contracts are subject to approval and acceptance by Seller at its main office in SHIRLEY, NEW YORK 11967. Unless otherwise explicitly stated in the quotation, all orders are non-cancelable.
QUOTATIONS AND F.O.B. POINT:
For Domestic orders, prices are quoted and all sales are made F.O.B. Shirley, New York. For International orders, see MDI quotation. Prices and delivery are based solely on the requirements as set forth in request for quotation. Prices are subject to change without notice. Minimum factory order value $100.00.
TERMS OF PAYMENT:
(In case of conflict, the terms outlined on the MDI quotation will take precedence)

Products held for Buyer because of Buyer's delay in acceptance shall be at the risk and expense of Buyer. If in the judgment of Seller, the financial condition of Buyer at any time does not justify continuation or production or shipment on the terms of payment originally specified.
