Transfer Flow Terms of Sale

Transfer Flow is a manufacturer of various automotive products, including but not limited to fuel tanks (the “Goods”); and Buyer desires to purchase Goods from Transfer Flow, and Transfer Flow is willing to sell Goods to Buyer, pursuant to the terms of this Contract.

Transfer Flow and Buyer hereby agree as follows:

Sale of Goods:

This Contract is understood and agreed to be a contract for the sale of goods under Division 2 of the California Commercial Code (the “Code”). The provisions of the Code shall, as modified by this Contract, apply to the purchase by Buyer, and the sale by Transfer Flow, of the Goods. It is further agreed that this Contract is not an “output contract”, a “requirements contract”, or an “exclusive dealing contract”. Transfer Flow expressly reserves the right to sell any of its Goods to any other parties. It is further agreed that this Contract is not a “sale on approval” or a “sale or return”. It is also agreed that both Transfer Flow and Buyer are “merchants” (as defined in the Code) and that the sale of Goods is not a retail sale, a consumer sale, or a sale for the Buyer’s personal, family or household purpose.

Terms of Purchase:

  1. Orders: All orders for Goods placed by Buyer shall be in writing, fax, email, or from the official Transfer Flow website. All orders shall be subject to written acceptance by Transfer Flow.

  2. Minimum Order Size: The minimum order amount for Transfer Flow is $30. Orders for items totaling less than this amount will be increased to $30.

  3. Prices: Buyer shall purchase Goods at the prices in effect at the time of order. Transfer Flow may implement price changes at any time during the term of this Contract.

  4. Delivery: All Goods shall be shipped FOB shipping point. Buyer shall be responsible for all shipping charges from the Transfer Flow factory.

  5. Risk of Loss: All risk of loss for the Goods shall pass to the Buyer upon Seller putting the Goods into the possession of the carrier. Buyer (and not Seller) shall bear the risk of any loss during shipment.

  6. Payment: Transfer Flow shall invoice Buyer for the Goods at the time of shipment and Buyer shall, unless otherwise approved by Transfer Flow prior to shipment, pay such invoices by (1) credit card or (2) on approved terms basis.

  7. Change Fees: Transfer Flow will reserve the right to assess a Change Fee of up to 5% of the order’s value, if the buyer requests a modification to the original order’s delivery date.

  8. Rush Fees: Rush typically fall between 10% and 20% of the order value. Rush fees will carry a minimum charge of $200. These charges must be agreed upon by both Transfer Flow and the Buyer in writing and in advance of any accelerated timelines.

  9. Storage Fees: Storage fees are assessed at Transfer Flow’s discretion when ordered product is ready, and this is communicated to the Buyer, but shipment is delayed by the Buyer. A 2% fee will be assessed per week on the value of that order, and these fees will be assessed on the first day of each two-week period (e.g., day 16, day 30 and so on). These charges will have a $200.00 minimum per instance.

  10. Late Fees: Invoices paid after the Buyer’s specific payment terms have expired are subject to a late fee. A 2% late fee will be assessed monthly, beginning with the first day the account has become past dues (and then again on day 31, 61 and so on). Charges are not prorated for partial months.

Warranty:

  1. Certificate of Limited Warranty: Transfer Flow’s Certificate of Limited Warranty, as it may be revised by Transfer Flow from time-to-time, is herein incorporated by reference.

  2. Limited Warranty: The terms of Transfer Flow’s Certificate of Limited Warranty specify the only warranties provided by Transfer Flow; all other warranties (of any type or kind – express, implied, or otherwise) are hereby excluded, disclaimed, and negated.

  3. Restocking Fees: When product is returned in sellable condition with previous notice and an issued RMA number, restocking fees will be first applied before credit or refund is issued. These fees will be $200 for a fuel system and $50 for a less expensive part.

Relationship of Parties and Indemnification of Transfer Flow:

Buyer and Seller: The relationship of the parties established by this Contract is solely that of a “Buyer” and “Seller”, as defined in the Code.

  1. No Authority to Bind Transfer Flow: Nothing in this Contract, or otherwise, shall be construed as constituting an appointment of the Buyer as an agent, legal representative, joint venturer, partner, employee, or servant of Transfer Flow for any purpose whatsoever. The Buyer is not authorized to transact business, incur obligations, sell goods, solicit orders, or assign or create any obligation of any kind (express or implied), on behalf of Transfer Flow, or to bind Transfer Flow in any way whatsoever, or to make any contract, promise, warranty, or representation on Transfer Flow’s behalf with respect to the Goods or any other matter, or to accept any service of process upon Transfer Flow or receive any notice of any nature whatsoever on Transfer Flow’s behalf.

  2. Indemnification: Under no circumstances shall Transfer Flow be liable for any act, omission, contract, debt, or other obligation of any kind of the Buyer or any salesman, employee, agent, or other person acting for or on behalf of the Buyer. The Buyer shall protect, defend (by attorneys acceptable to Transfer Flow), indemnify, and hold Transfer Flow harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, or expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs) arising directly or indirectly from, as a result of, or in connection with, the Buyer ‘s operations of the Buyer’s business. The terms of this indemnity shall survive any termination of this Contract.

Duties of the Buyer:

  1. Sales Activities: The Buyer agrees to use Buyer’s best efforts to vigorously and actively promote the sale of the Goods.

  2. Staff Training: The Buyer shall use its best efforts to train Buyer’s employees and agents as to the proper usage and application of the Goods in accordance with Transfer Flow instruction sheets, as supplied by Transfer Flow to the Buyer. All instruction sheets provided must be followed for each installation as instructions may change at any time.

  3. Reputation: The Buyer shall continually maintain (to the satisfaction of Transfer Flow) a general reputation for honesty, integrity, and good credit standing and shall maintain the highest quality standards.

Force Majeure:
Transfer Flow shall be excused from any delay or non-performance in the delivery of an order, and the Buyer shall have no claim for damage, if and to the extent such delay or failure is caused by occurrences beyond the control of Transfer Flow, including, but not limited to, market conditions; acts of God; war, acts of terrorism, riots, and civil disturbances; expropriation or confiscation of facilities or compliance with any order or request of governmental authority; strikes, labor or employment difficulties whether direct or indirect; or any cause whatsoever which is not within the reasonable control of Transfer Flow. Transfer Flow shall, upon the occurrence of any such event, promptly notify the Buyer of the existence of any such force majeure condition and the anticipated extent of the delay or non-delivery.

Limitation of Buyer’s Remedies:
If Transfer Flow, for any reason whatsoever, fails or is unable to deliver any Goods ordered by the Buyer, the Buyer’s SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE remedy shall be the recovery of the purchase price, if any, paid by the Buyer to Transfer Flow for such Goods. Transfer Flow shall not incur any liability whatsoever for any delay in the delivery to the designated delivery location of any Goods. In no event shall Transfer Flow be liable for any incidental, consequential or other damages arising out of any failure by Transfer Flow to deliver any Goods to the Buyer, or for any delay in the delivery thereof.
