SILKROAD EXCLUSIVE INC STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS (V3.3)


All sales are subject to Standard Terms and Conditions ("Terms") set forth below:

1) DELIVERY: Silkroad Exclusive Inc. (the "Seller") will make a good faith effort to complete delivery of the products as indicated by Seller in writing, but Seller assumes no responsibility or liability and will accept no back charge for loss or damage due to delay or inability to deliver, whether or not such loss or damage was made known to Seller, including but not limited to, liability for Seller's non-performance caused by acts of God, war, labor difficulties, accidents, inability to obtain materials, delays of carriers, contractors or suppliers or any other causes of any kind whatsoever. Under no circumstances shall Seller be liable for any special, consequential, incidental, indirect, or liquidated damages, losses, or expense (whether or not based on negligence) arising directly or indirectly from delays or failure to give notice of delay.

2) SHIPMENTS: All orders shall be F.O.B. Origin, with risk of loss transferring to Buyer upon transfer of the goods to a common carrier, Buyer or Buyer's Representative. Seller cannot be held responsible for any shipment damage and/or shortage that occur in transit. The cost of any special packing or special handling caused by Buyer's requirements or requests shall be added to the amount of the order. If Buyer or its consignee causes or requests a shipment delay, additional wait time or additional services, or if Seller ships or delivers the products erroneously as a result of inaccurate, incomplete or misleading information supplied by Buyer or its agents or employees, storage fee and all other additional costs and risks shall be borne solely by Buyer. Any such incurred fee will be automatically charged to Buyer.

2.1) SHIPMENT CLAIMS: Claims for products damaged or lost in transit should be made by Buyer to the carrier, where Buyer arranged for shipment, and by Buyer to Seller, where Seller arranged for shipment. Upon receipt of such claim from Buyer, Seller will assist, to the best of its ability, to file a claim with the carrier and pass on any claim settlement back to the Buyer upon receipt. If Buyer wants a replacement, a new purchase order shall be submitted and the Buyer is financially responsible for the entire payment of that new order. Seller should never be responsible for the cost of a replacement or the freight incurred in the event of damage and/or shortage that occur in transit.

All shipment claims are subject to carrier's approval. Buyer is responsible to instruct its consignee to comply with carrier regulations, including but not limited to these instructions at the time of delivery in the purpose of protecting Buyer and its consignee in case of damage/ shortage that occur in transit.
1. Inspect the shipment carton(s) immediately upon arrival while the carrier is still on site
2. Inspect the actual products in case of damages found on carton(s)
3. Make notation of any shortage, any minor or major imperfection of the packaging, any product damage and any delivery/inspection problem on the delivery document (driver's copy) before signing. Otherwise, any problem reported afterward may be voided or reduce the liability of carrier by 70% or more
4. Provide description of the damage/shortage and supporting photos within 24 hours of delivery
5. Retain all original packaging in case of any damages until further notice
In the event that any of these instructions are not followed, claim process would be delayed and possibly be denied by carrier. If Buyer or consignee waives the delivery signature requirement, Buyer will assume all risks and any liability will be released from both carrier and Seller.

3) INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE: Within 7 calendar days of delivery, Buyer shall report in writing with description of any problem and supporting photos that the products are non-conformed and/or rejected, whether due to damage, shortages, not shipped as ordered, missing parts or otherwise. Any carrier related problem, at Seller's discretion, will be treated as carrier claim, as defined in Section 2, and subject to carrier's approval. After such 7-day period, Buyers shall be deemed to have irrevocably accepted any products not previously rejected or accepted by Seller. Any attempt to use a non-conformed product will be deemed as an acceptance. After acceptance, Buyer shall have no right to charge back to Seller or reject the products for any reason whatsoever or to revoke acceptance. Buyer hereby agrees that such 7-day period is reasonable amounts of time for such inspection, acceptance or rejection.

4) CANCELLATION: Buyer may request to cancel an order in writing that has not been shipped. Seller will either confirm the cancellation or stating that the order has already been shipped, and therefore it cannot be cancelled. Buyer hereby agrees to be responsible for any delivery refusal of non-damaged products, as defined in Section 5. A delivery refusal may also result in the damage or loss of the product on its way back, which would void any possibility of a refund.

5) RETURNS: All returns must have Seller's prior written consent. Returns must be within 30 calendar days of delivery in new condition (un-damaged, un-used, un-installed) and in original packaging for a refund. Buyer shall pay a restocking fee equal to 20% of the purchase price plus all shipping related cost. Shipping costs, handling fees and duty & taxes are non-refundable. If, at Seller's sole discretion, shipping cost is deemed refundable, Buyer shall pay a processing fee equal to 20% of the shipping cost. Specially fabricated or ordered items may not be cancelled or returned, and no refund will be made. Merchandise alleged to be defective in workmanship or material will be subject to the Seller's inspection and warranty. In the event that any return is found damaged, Seller will inform Buyer that the item was received damaged and will hold the product for up to 14 calendar days. It is Buyer's responsibility to file a claim with the shipping carrier and pick up the damaged item from Seller within the 14 days. Otherwise, the item will be donated or destroyed. Any unauthorized return will not be refunded and storage fee will be charged at $25 per calendar day.

6) REFUNDS AND CREDITS: At Seller's discretion, refunds are issued either back to the original form of payment or as store credit. Any store credit issued by Seller to Buyer for any reason must be used within two (2) years from the date that the credit was issued and may only be used for future purchases of products. Any credit or portion thereof not used within the two (2) year period will automatically expire.

Buyer does hereby grant Seller a purchase money security interest in the products until such time as Seller is fully paid.

No products furnished by the Seller shall become a fixture by reason of being attached to real estate.
