Sales Terms & Conditions

RIMAGE CORPORATION SALES TERMS AND CONDITIONS

  1. By purchasing products from Rimage Corporation (“Rimage”), Buyer confirms that the following terms and conditions apply to Buyer’s purchase of Rimage’s products. Buyer agrees to be bound by and accept these terms and conditions unless Buyer and Rimage have signed a separate agreement, in which case the separate agreement will govern. Absent such separate agreement, no different, inconsistent, conflicting or additional terms or conditions Buyer may provide in the course of the sale from Rimage to Buyer or attempting to vary the pre-printed form of these Terms and Conditions shall be valid or binding upon Rimage unless a Vice President or higher level officer of Rimage expressly accepts such terms or conditions in writing. If Buyer has previously ordered Rimage’s product(s), Rimage accepts Buyer’s order only on the condition that Buyer agrees to all the terms and conditions set forth hereon that may be in addition or different from the terms and conditions of such previous order.
  2. CONDITIONS OF SALE. Any products Buyer purchases from Rimage by electronic, phone, paper or any other form of transmission are sold subject to the following:
    • a. If Buyer has a fully signed sales agreement currently in effect with Rimage, then any term in that agreement that conflicts with these terms and conditions will be applied to Buyer’s purchase; the rest of these terms and conditions will otherwise apply.
    • b. If Buyer does not have a fully signed sales agreement with Rimage, then Buyer agrees these Sales Terms and Conditions constitute the complete contract between Rimage and Buyer with regard to the products sold by Rimage to Buyer. Any changes to such contract must be in a writing signed by Rimage.
    • c. Unless otherwise expressly agreed in a governing sales agreement or other contract between Buyer and Rimage, in order to promote the safe and effective use of Rimage’s equipment, all equipment sold by Rimage is provided solely for use by the original purchaser of such equipment from Rimage, and any resale or similar transfer of such equipment without Rimage’s knowledge and consent is prohibited and shall constitute a material breach of the governing sales agreement.
  3. PRICE AND TERMS.
    • a. Product prices are determined by the signed sales agreement to which these Sales Terms and Conditions are attached or, in the absence of such sales agreement, by Rimage’s list prices current at the time of shipment.
    • b. Buyer is solely responsible for all taxes, fees and permits relating to the sale, use or installation of the products and upon notice (whether on a document to which this Sales Terms and Conditions document is attached or a future invoice) shall promptly reimburse Rimage therefore.
    • c. If Rimage pays freight or other charges Buyer has agreed to pay, explicitly or pursuant to these Sales Terms and Conditions, but fails to include such charges on the original invoice for the products, including but not limited to the charges for the items listed in Section 3.b. above, Rimage shall invoice Buyer and Buyer shall promptly pay such charges. Rimage will work with Buyer to have the invoicing for such charges conform to Buyer’s accounts payable system, but Buyer shall in any case be responsible for all such charges.
    • d. Typographic or other errors in stated prices are subject to correction.
    • e. Unless otherwise agreed, payment is due within 30 days of the invoice date. Amounts not paid when due may be subject to a late payment fee computed daily at the lesser of 1 ½ % per month or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. Buyer also agrees to reimburse Rimage for Rimage’s costs of collection should Buyer fail to pay Rimage in a timely manner. Late payments on maintenance contracts constitute a default of the contract and full payment will be required before any further service work can be performed.
    • f. If Buyer chooses to purchase products from Rimage by means of a Rimage provided electronic purchase and/or payment system, Rimage will use reasonable care to protect the confidentiality of Buyer’s credit card or other financial information. Buyer is solely responsible for controlling the use or dissemination of any such information within its organization should an employee of Buyer obtain any such information because of authorized or unauthorized use of any Rimage provided electronic purchase and/or payment system.

    • b.
