 TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PURCHASE BY TV ONE AV EUROPE LIMITED

1. Applicability.

(a)         The purchase order (“Purchase Order”) together with these terms and conditions, which are hyperlinked from the Purchase Order or otherwise provided to Seller, collectively constitute an offer by the Buyer for the purchase of the goods (“Goods”) or services (“Services” and together with the Goods, the “Ordered Items”) specified from the Seller in accordance with these terms and conditions and the Purchase Order. Upon acceptance of this offer by Seller, these terms and conditions and the Purchase Order shall constitute a binding agreement (the “Agreement”) between the Buyer and the Seller, and apply to all purchases of the Ordered Items by Buyer from Seller, as such Ordered Items may be described on the face of the Purchase Order. This offer will be deemed accepted by the Seller upon the first of the following to occur: (a) Seller making, signing or delivering to Buyer any letter, form or other writing or instrument acknowledging acceptance, (b) any performance by Seller under the offer, or (c) the passage of three (3) days after Seller’s receipt of a Purchase Order without written notice to Buyer that Seller does not accept such Purchase Order. In the event of any conflict between the Agreement and any other document or instrument submitted by Seller, the Agreement will prevail. The Agreement, together with any documents incorporated herein by reference, constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the parties with respect to the Ordered Items and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, negotiations, representations and warranties, and communications, both oral and written, with respect to the Ordered Items unless a separate overriding written contract has been entered into and signed by both parties. Buyer expressly limits acceptance of the Agreement to the terms stated herein and in the Purchase Order. Such terms expressly exclude any of Seller’s terms and conditions of sale or any other document issued by Seller in connection with the Ordered Items. Any additional, different, or inconsistent terms or conditions contained in any form, acknowledgement, acceptance, or confirmation used by Seller in connection with the implementation of the Purchase Order are hereby objected to and rejected by Buyer, however such proposal does not operate as a rejection of the Agreement (unless such variances are in the terms of the description, quantity, price or delivery schedule of the Ordered Items), but will be deemed a material alteration thereof, and the Agreement shall be deemed accepted by the Seller without any additional, different or inconsistent terms.

2. Shipment and Delivery; Alternate Source.       

(a)           All Goods must be (i) suitably packed or otherwise prepared by Seller for shipment to prevent damage, to obtain the lowest transportation and insurance rates, and to meet the carrier’s requirements, and (ii) shipped in accordance with the instructions on the Purchase Order. Expenses incurred due to failure to comply with these terms are the responsibility of Seller.  Seller’s name, complete ship to address and Purchase Order number must appear on all invoices, bills of lading, packing slips, cartons and correspondence.  Bills of lading must be attached to invoices submitted, showing carrier, number of cartons and weight and date of shipment. Packing slips must accompany all shipments listing contents of shipment in detail. Title to and all risk of loss or damage to Goods remains with Seller until written receipt by Buyer of conforming Goods at the required destination.  Terms of shipping are F.O.B. the Buyer’s delivery location unless otherwise noted on the Purchase Order. Time is of the essence. Deliveries are to be made only in the quantities and at the times specified in the Purchase Order.  Until delivery takes place, Seller must keep the Goods separately stored and identified as Buyer's property. Seller's right to possession shall terminate immediately in the event an Agreement is terminated by the Buyer pursuant to an event of insolvency as set out in Section 8. Seller grants and shall procure an irrevocable right to Buyer or its agents to enter any premises where the Goods are kept or may be stored in order to inspect them, or where Seller's right to possession has terminated, to recover them.

(b)            If delivery is not expected to be made on time, Seller must immediately notify Buyer and take reasonable steps, at its cost, to expedite delivery. The Seller shall not deliver an order more than five business days in advance of an agreed delivery date without the prior written consent of the Buyer. Buyer may cancel any order if delivery is not made on time or if notice is given that a delivery is expected to be late.

(c)           Buyer may reject any delivery or cancel all or any part of any Purchase Order if Seller fails to make delivery in conformity with the terms and conditions of the Agreement including, without limitation, any failure of Goods to conform to the specifications (“Specifications”) and performance criteria published by Seller for Goods. All Goods shall be free from material defects in design, material and workmanship and shall be of satisfactory quality (within the meaning of the Sales of Goods and Supply of Services Act 1980). Buyer’s acceptance of any non-conforming delivery shall not constitute a waiver of its right to reject future deliveries. If Seller (i) fails to supply Goods, (ii) fails to supply Goods meeting Specifications, or (iii) fails to meet Buyer’s delivery schedules and delivery requirements, and Seller does not provide a comparable quality substitute (for which substitution Seller must assume any expense and price differential), then Buyer may, in its sole discretion, purchase Goods from another supplier as an alternate source as Seller, in its sole discretion, deems necessary. In such event, Seller shall reimburse Buyer for any additional costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in purchasing Goods from such other supplier as an alternate source. Upon identification and notification of defective Goods or nonconforming shipments, Buyer shall receive full credit either for scrap or return, which credit will include full costs paid to Seller, together with shipping, processing and related costs, if applicable.  Within 5 business days of notification of the defective Goods, Seller shall submit to Buyer a written explanation of the root cause and corrective actions implemented to prevent reoccurrence. This Section 2 shall apply equally to any repaired or replacement Goods.

(d)           Buyer may, without liability, at least 14 days prior to the scheduled delivery date defer delivery on any or every Ordered Item by giving oral notice to Seller of any necessary rescheduling (which oral notice is to be confirmed in writing within 10 days of the oral notice). In addition, where Ordered Items are delivered by Seller in instalments, Buyer may, without liability, cancel any order (or part order) for the Ordered Items not yet delivered upon giving 15 days’ written notice to Seller.

3. Supply of Services

(a)           Seller shall supply the Services to Buyer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement including, without limitation all specification and performance criteria set out in the Purchase Order (“Service Specification”) and the Seller’s published criteria. Seller shall meet all performance dates for Services. Time is of the essence. In providing the Services, Seller shall: (i) co-operate with Buyer in all matters relating to the Services and comply with all Buyer’s instructions; (ii) perform all Services with the best care, skill and diligence in accordance with best practice in the Seller’s industry, profession or trade; (iii) use personnel who are suitably skilled and experienced to perform tasks assigned to them, and in sufficient number to ensure Seller’s obligations are fulfilled in accordance with the Agreement; and (iv) ensure that the Services (and any deliverables) conform with all descriptions and specifications set out in the Service Specification.   

(b)           If Seller fails to perform the Services by the applicable date, Buyer shall, without limiting or affecting other rights or remedies available to it, have one or more of the following rights: (i) to terminate the Agreement with immediate effect by giving written notice; (ii) refuse to accept any subsequent performance of the Services; (iii) recover from Seller any costs incurred in obtaining substitute services from a third-party; (iv) to require a refund from Seller of sums paid in advance for Services that Seller has not provided; and (v) claim damages for any additional costs, loss or expenses incurred by Buyer which are in any way attributable to Seller’s failure to meet such dates. 

4. Prices; Payment.

Prices for all Ordered Items will be as stated in the Purchase Order, and include all applicable taxes; provided, however, that in no event will the price charged by Seller under the Agreement be less favourable than the lowest price charged by Seller to other customers purchasing similar or lesser quantities of the Ordered Items. Payment terms for all Ordered Items will be as stated in the Purchase Order. Buyer shall be entitled to set off any amounts owing at any time from Seller to Buyer or any of its affiliated companies against any amount payable at any time by Buyer or such affiliates in connection with the Agreement.

5. Inspection/Testing.

Payment for the Ordered Items does not constitute acceptance thereof. Buyer has the right to inspect all Ordered Items and to reject any or all Ordered Items that are in Buyer's judgment defective or nonconforming. The Buyer shall not be deemed to have accepted any Goods or Services until it has had a reasonable time to inspect them following delivery or performance (as the case may be), or, in the case of a latent defect in the Goods, until a reasonable time after the latent defect has become apparent Buyer may request, at its option, repair or replacement of rejected Ordered Items or a refund of the purchase price. Ordered Items supplied in excess of the quantities specified in the Purchase Order may be returned to Seller at Seller's expense. Buyer reserves the right to use rejected materials, as it believes advisable or necessary to meet its contractual obligations to customers, without waiving any rights against Seller. Nothing contained in the Agreement relieves Seller from the obligation of testing, inspection and quality control.

6. Confidentiality and Proprietary Rights.

Each party shall hold the other's Confidential Information in confidence and not make the other's Confidential Information available to any third party or use the other's Confidential Information for any purpose other than as expressly permitted under this Agreement.
