The following terms and conditions apply to orders transmitted through Seller’s worldwide web site at AARCORP.COM.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
The terms and conditions set forth herein are referred to as the "Agreement."
1. Purpose.
A. Buyer and Seller desire to facilitate the purchase and sale of goods and services from Seller to Buyer by permitting Buyer to electronically transmit orders through the Seller’s worldwide web site at AARCORP.COM (the "Website") as a substitute for conventional paper-based documents. Buyer and Seller intend that contracts formed pursuant to this Agreement shall be as enforceable as contracts formed by exchanging paper documents.
B. Nothing in this Agreement precludes Buyer and Seller from entering into contracts by exchanging conventional paper-based documents other than through Seller’s Website, and this Agreement will not apply to any such transactions.
2. System Operations and Transmission.
A. Each party, at its own expense will provide and maintain the equipment, software, services and testing necessary to reliably and efficiently transmit and receive orders.
B. Each party will be individually responsible for the costs of any communication or internet service providers with which they contract for purposes of accessing and transmitting communications through the worldwide web.
3. Registration, Activation, Signatures and Passwords.
A. To enroll as a recognized AAR online services customer, Buyer must (1) complete the registration information requested by Seller, (2) agree to the terms of this Agreement, and (3) receive registration approval from the Seller. Enrollment is a one-time process and need not be repeated when orders are placed through Seller’s Website.
B. As part of the registration information, Buyer will provide Seller with a user name that Buyer will use to log-in to the Website (the "User Name"). Buyer will maintain sole control of its User Name. Neither Buyer nor Seller will disclose the User Name to any unauthorized person. Buyer will notify Seller in the event Buyer desires to change its User Name so that Seller may update its records.
C. Upon Seller’s confirmation of Buyer’s eligibility to become a recognized AAR online services customer and Buyer’s acceptance of the terms of this Agreement by clicking the "I Agree" icon below, each of Buyer’s employees authorized to issue orders through the Website on Buyer’s behalf pursuant to this Agreement will be issued a password (the "Password"). For security reasons, Seller will issue Passwords upon request of Buyer’s designated company account manager via telephone only. No Passwords will be issued directly to Buyer’s employees who may request them.
D. Buyer will immediately notify Seller in the event its User Name or employees’ Passwords are lost or disclosed to any unauthorized person or in the event any employee who possesses a Password leaves Buyer’s employment. If Buyer fails to so notify Seller, and subsequent order transactions occur through the Website in which Seller accepts such order and relies on the authenticity of Buyer’s User Name or employees’ Passwords, such transaction shall be binding on Buyer in all regards and Buyer shall accept and pay for the goods and services stated in such order.
E. To place an order through the Website, Buyer must log-in to the Website using its User Name and Password. The User Name and Password used to log-in to the Website and an order placed following such log-in is deemed for all purposes to constitute Buyer’s signature on the order, and will be sufficient to verify that Buyer originated the order.
4. Transaction Security. Each party will employ their respective company’s standard security procedures to ensure the authorized transmission of orders and to protect their data and business records from unauthorized access. Buyer and Seller will use reasonable care and guard the confidentiality of the electronic order transactions in the same manner and degree they guard the confidentiality of their paper documents.
5. Document Receipt and Acceptance. No order placed through the Website will give rise to any obligation until it is accessible by Seller’s computer and accepted by Seller. Upon receipt of Buyer’s order, Seller will promptly transmit to Buyer a functional acknowledgment of the order. The acknowledgment will be conclusive evidence that Seller properly received Buyer’s order, but will not be deemed Seller’s acceptance of the order. Seller’s acceptance of Buyer’s order will be evidenced in a separate transmission to Buyer entitled, "Confirmation." Upon shipment of the goods and services, Seller will also transmit to Buyer a notice of shipment. Seller will transmit any acknowledgments, confirmations and notice of shipment to Buyer via e-mail or fax.
6. Terms and Conditions. All orders placed through the Website will be subject to the terms and conditions contained herein. The parties agree that this Agreement shall govern orders placed through the Website, and any conflict or dispute that arises between the parties in connection with any such order will be resolved as if such transaction had been effected through the use of this Agreement.
7. Enforceability and Admissibility.
A. This Agreement evidences Buyer’s and Seller’s mutual intent to create binding purchase and sale obligations through the Website and receipt of order forms specifying certain of the applicable terms.
B. Any order placed through the Website will be deemed for all purposes: (1) to be a "writing" or "in writing", (2) to have been "signed" by Buyer and (3) to constitute an "original" when printed from electronic records established and maintained in the ordinary course of business.
C. Any order placed through the Website will be as legally sufficient as a written, signed, paper document exchanged between the parties, notwithstanding any legal requirement that the document be in writing or signed. Documents introduced as evidence in any judicial or administrative proceeding shall be as admissible to the same extent as business records maintained in written form. The parties agree not to contest the validity or enforceability of any transactions under the provisions of any applicable law relating to whether certain agreements are to be in writing or signed by the party to be bound thereby. Electronic records, if introduced as evidence on paper in any judicial, arbitration, mediation or administrative proceedings, will be admissible as between the parties to the same extent and under the same conditions as other business records originated and maintained in documentary form. Neither party shall contest the admissibility of copies of such documents under either the business records exception to the hearsay rule or the best evidence rule on the basis that the documents were not originated or maintained in documentary form.
D. The conduct of the parties with respect to orders placed through the Website will, for all legal purposes, evidence a course of dealing and a course of performance accepted by the Buyer and Seller in furtherance of this Agreement.
8. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois. Buyer hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of the State and Federal Courts in the State of Illinois for any matters of dispute relating to this Agreement or transaction electronically effected hereunder.
9. Severability. Any provision(s) of this Agreement that is adjudged invalid or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the limited extent of such ruling, and in no way effects the validity of the remaining provisions, which shall continue in full force and effect.
10. Notices. Notices and other communications under the terms of this Agreement will be, in English, in writing and sent by prepaid certified mail, return receipt requested, or by e-mail or fax, to the following addresses:

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement will govern such Orders. Any other terms of an Order or Seller's acknowledgments, invoices or shipping documents, whether printed, stamped, typed or written or otherwise attached to or on the reverse thereof will not apply to an Order. Buyer will place its Orders for Products quoted by Seller in accordance with Seller's Website instructions.
13. Prices. The prices for Products will be the prices as quoted on Seller’s Website, or if not quoted on the Website, as Seller communicates to Buyer via telephone, fax, e-mail or other means. In the event of a conflict between the price quoted by Seller and the price set forth in an Order, the price quoted by Seller shall control. Unless otherwise specified, price includes packaging and crating charges, and transportation to the specified FOB point. Buyer will pay any additional transportation charges. Prices do not include federal, state or local sales, use, excise or similar taxes or assessments or import duties applicable to the sale, production, transportation or use of goods sold. Any such tax or duties shall be separately itemized on Seller’s invoice and paid by Buyer or in lieu thereof, the Buyer shall furnish Seller a valid Tax Exemption Certificate. In the event Seller is required to pay any such tax or assessments, the Buyer shall reimburse Seller upon demand. Seller shall be under no obligation to contest the validity of any such tax or assessment or to prosecute any claims for refunds or returns.
14. Warranty. Seller warrants to the original Buyer that its new goods, excluding components not made by Seller, are free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service. Seller’s obligation under this warranty is limited to repair or at Seller’s option, replacement of any part or parts which are within ninety (90) days after delivery to the original Buyer returned to Seller’s place of manufacture and which after examination appears to Seller’s satisfaction to be defective under the above warranty. All costs of shipping any defective goods to Seller and returning them to the Buyer shall be borne entirely by the Buyer. Seller shall use its good faith efforts to obtain, in its subcontract with each supplier of components not made by Seller, a provision that the subcontractor’s standard warranty, if any, shall survive Seller’s inspection, acceptance and payment and shall run to Seller, its successors, assigns and customers. SELLER MAKES NO IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR ANY SPECIAL USE OR FUNCTION OR LIFE AFTER SALE TO BUYER AND/OR TO SUBSEQUENT BUYERS OR USERS OF THE PRODUCTS BEYOND THE EXPRESSED TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OR USAGE OF TRADE, WHICH EXTEND BEYOND THE FACE OF THIS AGREEMENT. Seller neither assumes nor authorized any person to assume for it any other liability in connection with the sale of its goods.
15.Modifications. Seller may change, modify or amend the terms of this Agreement from time to time upon notice to Buyer, via telephone, fax, e-mail, or upon the publishing of such change, modification or amendment on Seller’s Website. Such change, modification or amendment shall apply to any Order transmitted subsequent to said notice or publishing on the Seller’s Website.
16.Shipments and Packaging. Unless agreed in writing, all shipments shall be FOB Seller’s plant or plants, and title and risk of loss or damage pass to Buyer upon delivery to carrier at such point. Unless agreed in writing, packaging will be accomplished in accordance with Seller’s standard commercial practice for domestic shipments. Seller may ship Products to be delivered under this Agreement to the Buyer’s place of business by such means as Seller shall select if adequate shipping instructions are not received from Buyer within thirty (30) days before the shipment date.
17.Payments. Buyer shall pay Seller for Products using an authorized American Express, Mastercard or VISA credit card at time of order. No sale will occur if credit card authorization and approval is denied. Seller will bill the credit card at the time the Products are shipped to Buyer.
18.Acceptance. The Buyer shall inspect all Products immediately upon receipt and shall within ten (10) days give written notice to Seller of any claim that said Products do not conform with the terms of this Agreement. If the Buyer shall fail to give such notice, the Products shall be deemed accepted, and to conform with the terms of this Agreement.
19.Excusable Delays. Seller shall not be held in default for failure to deliver or for delay in delivery arising out of causes beyond its control and without its fault or negligence, including, but not limited to acts of God or of the public enemy; acts of the Government in either its sovereign or contractual capacity; fires; floods; epidemics; quarantine restrictions; strikes; labor disputes; freight embargoes; and unusually severe weather. If the delay or failure to deliver is caused by such delay or failure of a subcontractor of Seller and if such delay or failure arises out of causes beyond the control of both Seller and the subcontractor, and without the fault of negligence of either of them, Seller shall not be liable to Buyer for any such delay unless the materials or services to be furnished by the subcontractor were obtainable from other sources in sufficient time to permit Seller to meet the required delivery schedule. Any of the above excusable delays shall not terminate this Agreement, and Seller shall deliver the Products as promptly as practical thereafter.
20.Patent Indemnity. If the Products furnished hereunder are specified in this Agreement as being "standard commercial supplies", then Seller will indemnify Buyer, its successors, assigns, agents and users of its products against loss, damage or liability, including cost and expenses, which may be incurred on account of any suit, claim, judgment or demand involving infringement or alleged infringement of any patent rights in the manufacture, use or disposition of such Products supplied hereunder, provided Buyer shall promptly notify Seller of any such suit instituted against it and, to the full extent of its ability to do so, shall permit Seller to defend the same or make settlement in respect thereto. In the event the goods furnished hereunder are produced under specifications not customarily followed by Seller, then no liability shall arise under this paragraph. In like manner, Buyer agrees to save Seller harmless from patent infringements resulting from Seller’s compliance with designs and or specifications furnished by Buyer and now or hereafter forming a part of this Agreement or with specific written instructions given by Buyer for the purpose of directing the manner in which Seller shall perform this Agreement.
21.Use of Products. Seller grants no license or right, expressly or by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, beyond the right of Buyer to use the specified Products in the form delivered. Further, Products are offered for sale and are sold hereunder subject in every case to the condition that such sale does not convey any license, expressly or by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, under any patent claim with respect to which Seller could grant a license covering any other product or any completed equipment, or any assembly combination, method or process in which, or in the manufacturing or testing of which, any such Seller products are used (notwithstanding that such Seller products may have been designed only for use in, or may only be useful in, such other patented products or such patented equipment assembly, combination, method of process, or in the manufacturing or testing thereof, and that Seller products may have been purchased and sold for such use) Seller expressly reserves all its rights under such patented claims.
22.Proprietary Rights. Any prints, drawings or specifications of Seller attached hereto or heretofore or hereafter furnished by Seller to Buyer in connection with this purchase order are the property of Seller and represent a proprietary article with respect to which Seller retains all United States or foreign letters, patents, trademarks or copyrights, or other intellectual property rights, including exclusive rights of use, manufacture and sale. Possession by Buyer of such prints, drawing or specifications does not convey any permission to manufacture, use or sell any goods shown thereon.
23.Termination. If Buyer fails to comply with any of the provisions hereof, or in the event the Buyer becomes the subject of a proceeding under state or federal law for relief of debtors, or if Buyer makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, Seller shall have the right to hold Buyer in default and, in addition to any other rights it may have, may cancel this Agreement in whole or in part.
24.Indemnification. Buyer hereby releases and agrees to defend, indemnify and hold Seller, its directors, officers, employees and agents harmless from and against any and all liabilities, claims, demands, suits, damages and losses (including, without limitation, all attorney’s fees, costs and expenses in connection therewith or incident thereto) for deaths of or injuries to any persons whomsoever (including without limitation Buyer’s employees) and for loss of, damage to, destruction of, or delay in the delivery of any property whatsoever in any manner arising out of or in any way connected with the Products provided by Seller hereunder regardless of the negligence, active or passive, of Seller, its directors, officers, employees or agents. Buyer will, at the request of Seller, negotiate any claim or defend any action or suit brought against Seller or in which Seller is joined as a party defendant based upon any matters for which Buyer has released and indemnified Seller hereunder.
25.DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL SELLER BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST REVENUE, LOST PROFIT OR LOSS OF PROSPECTIVE EXONOMIC ADVANTAGE, RESULTING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, FROM THIS TRANSACTION, OR THE PRODUCTS, OR THE USE OR OWNERSHIP OF THE PRODUCTS SHIPPED HEREUNDER. IN NO EVENT WILL SELLER’S LIABILITY HEREUNDER, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY LIABILITY, EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE ACTUALLY PAID FOR THE PRODUCTS.
26.Effect of Invalidity. The invalidity in whole or in part of any provision hereto shall not affect the validity of any other provision.
27.Credit. Seller reserves the right at any time to alter or suspend credit, or to change credit terms provided herein, when in its sole opinion the financial condition of the Buyer so warrants. In such case, in addition to any other remedies provided herein or by law, Seller may require cash payment or satisfactory security from the Buyer before shipment. Failure to pay invoices when due makes all subsequent invoices immediately due and payable, irrespective of terms, and Seller, in addition to these rights and remedies, but not in limitation thereof, may, at its option, defer further shipments until Buyer re-establishes satisfactory credit, cancel the unshipped portion of the order without any liability for failure to ship, or make shipments to Buyer on a C.O.D. basis. Acceptance by Seller of less than full payment shall not be a waiver of any of its rights. No cash discount will be allowed on payments made by trade acceptances, notes, securities, postdated checks, etc., and such method of payment must first be approved in writing by Seller.
28.Remedies. The rights and remedies provided hereunder are cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies provided by law. No failure of Seller to insist upon strict performance of these terms and conditions shall be a waiver of any right or remedy of Seller. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of Michigan. Buyer and Seller hereby expressly reject the 1980 United Nations Convention of Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
29.Assignment. Buyer may not assign this Agreement, or any portions hereof without the express prior written consent of Seller. Subject always to the foregoing, this Agreement inures to the benefit of, and is binding upon, the heirs, legatees, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
30.Compliance with Statutes and Regulations. In the performance of this Agreement, Seller will comply with all applicable statutes, rules, regulations and orders of the United States and of any states or political subdivision thereof, including laws and regulations pertaining to labor, wages, hours and other conditions of employment, applicable price ceilings. The articles delivered hereunder shall be produced in accordance with the Fair Labor Standards Act and the provisions of Executive Orders and the rules and regulations of the President’s Committee on Equal Employment Opportunity. Seller will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment for reason of race, creed, color, or national origin.
31.Government Contracts. No contract or provision thereof made by the Buyer with any other party, for any purpose whatever shall be binding upon Seller or affect Seller’s agreement with Buyer unless said contract shall be first submitted to Seller and such contract or any specific provisions thereof deemed applicable be first accepted and agreed to by Seller in writing. Seller’s books and plants are not and will not at anytime be available for inspection by anyone other than a properly authorized official of a United States Government Department or Agency.
