TRYTEN TECHNOLOGIES INC. PURCHASE ORDER TERMS AND CONDITIONS

In these Purchase Order Terms & Conditions (the “Purchase Order Terms”),“Tryten” means Tryten Technologies Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates, and “Vendor” means the person selling and supplying goods (“Goods”) or services (the “Services”), or both, to Tryten pursuant to a purchase order or scope of work (each, a “Purchase Order”) issued by Tryten to the Vendor.

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

The offer by Tryten to purchase Goods or Services from the Vendor pursuant to a Purchase Order is subject to these Purchase Order Terms. The Vendor will be deemed to have reviewed and accepted these Purchase Order Terms and agreed with Tryten to be bound hereunder upon the earlier of (a) the Vendor delivering to Tryten any letter, form, or other written or electronic document, instrument or communication acknowledging acceptance of the Purchase Order, (b) shipment of Goods or commencement of Services to be supplied pursuant to a Purchase Order, as the case may be, and (c) the passage of FIVE (5) days after the Vendor’s receipt of the Purchase Order without written notice to Tryten that the Vendor does not accept these Purchase Order Terms. If the Vendor does not agree to these Purchase Order Terms, the Vendor must notify Tryten immediately and refund to Tryten any payment received pursuant to a Purchase Order within FIVE (5) days of the date of the Purchase Order. If the Vendor fails to refund full payment to Tryten within 5 days of receipt of the Purchase Order the Vendor will be deemed to have accepted these Purchase Order Terms.

These Purchase Order Terms may not be added to, modified, superseded or otherwise altered unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of Tryten. The Vendor acknowledges and agrees that only an authorized member of Tryten’s management has the authority to modify, amend, or otherwise alter these Purchase Order Terms or enter into a new agreement with the Vendor with respect to the Goods or Services to be purchased. These Purchase Order Terms expressly exclude any of Vendor’s terms and conditions of sale or any other document issued by the Vendor in connection with the Purchase Order.

To the extent that these Purchase Order Terms may be treated as an acceptance of the Vendor’s prior offer, such acceptance is expressly made on condition of assent by Vendor to these Purchase Order Terms and shipment of the Goods or performance of any Services by the Vendor shall constitute such assent. Any translation of these Terms of Use is done for local requirements and in the event of a dispute between English and the non-English version of these Purchase Order Terms, the English version will govern to the extent not prohibited by applicable law.

2. RIGHT OF CANCELLATION

Tryten hereby reserves the right to reschedule any delivery or cancel any Purchase Order issued at any time prior to shipment of the Goods or commencement of any Services, as the case may be. Tryten shall not be subject to any charges, penalties or other fees as a result of cancelling a Purchase Order in accordance with this section 2.

3. DELIVERY

4. RISK OF DESTRUCTION

Unless otherwise specified on a Purchase Order from Tryten, risk of loss of the Goods remains with the Vendor and title to the Goods shall pass to Tryten upon receipt by it of the Goods at the designated Delivery Location. If the Goods ordered are lost, damaged or destroyed prior to title passing to Tryten, Tryten may at its option cancel the Purchase Order or require delivery of substitute Goods of equal quantity and quality. Such delivery will be made as soon as commercially practicable. If loss of Goods is partial, Tryten shall have the right to require delivery of the Goods not destroyed. In the event any of the Goods are damaged, destroyed or lost, any amount owed by Tryten shall be cancelled for those Goods and Vendor shall promptly refund any amount already paid by Tryten for those Goods.

5. PAYMENT

As full consideration for the performance of the Services, delivery of the Goods and the assignment of rights to Tryten as provided herein, Tryten shall pay to the Vendor (i) the amount agreed upon and specified in the Purchase Order, or (ii) Vendor’s quoted price on date of shipment (for Goods) or the date performance of the Services commenced (for Services), whichever is lower, plus applicable taxes and such other charges such as shipping costs, duties, customs, tariffs, imposts and government imposed surcharges set out on the Vendor’s invoice approved by Tryten. All taxes assessable upon the Goods prior to receipt of such Goods by Tryten shall be borne by the Vendor.

The Vendor shall invoice Tryten for all Goods delivered and all Services actually performed. Each invoice submitted by Vendor must be provided to Tryten within ninety (90) days of delivery of Goods or completion of Services, as the case may be, and must reference the applicable Purchase Order, and Tryten reserves the right to return all incorrect invoices. Tryten will receive a 2% discount of the invoiced amount for all invoices that are received by Tryten more than ninety (90) days after completion of the delivery of the Goods or completion of the Services, as the case may be. Unless otherwise specified on the face of a Purchase Order, Tryten shall pay the invoiced amount within sixty (60) days after receipt of an invoice from the Vendor. The Vendor acknowledges and agrees that, other than the amounts set out in the Purchase Order and the corresponding Vendor’s invoice approved by Tryten, the Vendor will receive no payment, royalty or other remuneration from the production or distribution of any products developed or marketed by Tryten in connection with or based on the Goods or Services provided.
