CONNECTICUT CENTER FOR ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY, INC. (CCAT)
Purchase Order Standard Terms & Conditions
1. AGREEMENT
This Agreement between the parties shall take effect upon either (a) Seller’s written approval of CCAT’s Purchase Order or (b) Seller’s performance of CCAT’s Purchase Order. This writing does not constitute a firm offer and may be revoked at any time prior to agreement. Any terms or conditions contained in any acknowledgement, invoice or other communication of Seller, which are inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement are rejected.
To the extent that this Agreement might be treated as an approval of Seller’s prior offer, approval is expressly made on condition of assent by Seller to these terms and shipment of the Goods or beginning performance of any Services by Seller shall constitute assent.
Upon acceptance of a purchase order, shipment of Goods or commencement of a Service, Seller shall be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as between merchants, including all provisions set forth on the face of any applicable purchase order, whether Seller acknowledges or otherwise signs this Agreement or the purchase order, unless Seller objects to such terms in writing prior to shipping Goods or commencing Services.
2. DEFINITIONS
As used throughout this Agreement, the following definitions apply as between merchants unless otherwise specifically stated:
“Acceptance” occurs when CCAT (a) after a reasonable opportunity to inspect the goods signifies to the Seller that the goods are conforming or that he will take or retain them in spite of their nonconformity; or (b) fails to make an effective rejection within a reasonable time after delivery or tender, but such acceptance does not occur until the Buyer has had a reasonable opportunity to inspect them; or (c) does any act inconsistent with the Seller’s ownership; but if such act is wrongful as against the Seller it is an acceptance only if ratified by him.
“Buyer” means Connecticut Center for Advanced Technology, Inc. (“CCAT”), the non-profit legal entity issuing this Agreement.
“Purchase Order”, “Order”, or “Agreement” means this agreement, including change notices, supplements, amendments, or modifications, except were the context indicates that a particular Purchase Order document or other particular document is being referred to.
“Goods” means goods, supplies, Service deliverables, items, computer software or hardware (including any software, firmware, or other hardwired logic embedded within the hardware), intellectual property, technical information, or programs furnished by Seller in connection with the principal equipment purchased by CCAT (whether or not owned by Seller and whether or not deemed a part of those goods), that are described in any purchase order, request for proposal or request for quote.
“Services” means any effort supplied by Seller incidental to the sale of Goods by Seller under this Agreement including, without limitation, installation, repair and maintenance Services. The term “Services” shall also include, without limitation, any effort specifically required by the Agreement, including all associated efforts such as design, engineering, repair, maintenance, technical, construction, consulting, professional, or other services.
“Sale” consists of passing of title from the Seller to CCAT for a price.
“Seller” means the legal entity who sells or contracts to sell Goods or Services or otherwise performs work pursuant to this Agreement.
“Intellectual Property” means all patents, copyrights, mask works, trademarks, trade secrets and other rights and information of a similar nature worldwide to the extent that such rights o r information are created or made possible by Seller alone (or acting with CCAT or others) and result from Seller’s performance under this Agreement or any Goods or Services provided to CCAT. Such information includes, without limitation, designs, unique processes, drawings, prints, unique specifications, reports, data, and other technical information, regardless of form, and all unique equipment, tools, gauges, patterns, process sheets or work instructions related to such Goods or Services.
[“Work Product” shall include, without limitation, all designs, discoveries, creations, works, devices, masks, models, work in progress, Service deliverables, inventions, products, computer programs, procedures, improvements, developments, drawings, notes, documents, business processes, information and materials made, conceived or developed by Seller alone or with others which result from or relate to the Services performed. Standard Goods manufactured by Seller and sold to CCAT without having been designed, customized or modified for CCAT do not constitute Work Product.]
3. DELIVERY.
Time is of the essence regarding all aspects of Seller’s performance of this agreement. Without limitation, the delivery schedule specified in this Agreement must be strictly observed by Seller both as to time and quantity, via the carrier and to the place specified on the face of the applicable purchase order. CCAT reserves the right to return, and collect all shipping charges for all Goods received outside the delivery schedule. If no delivery schedule is specified, the order shall be filled promptly via land transportation. If no method of shipment is specified in the purchase order, Seller shall use the least expensive carrier. In the event Seller fails to deliver the Goods within the time specified, CCAT may, at its option, (i) decline to accept the Goods and terminate the Agreement, (ii) demand its allocable fair share of Seller’s available Goods and terminate the balance of the Agreement, or (iii) require Seller, at Seller’s sole cost and expense, to ship all of the items covered by this Agreement by air or railway express or by such other means as may be designated by CCAT. Seller shall package all items in suitable containers to permit safe transportation and handling. Each delivered container must be labeled and marked to identify contents without opening and all boxes and packages must contain packing sheets listing contents. CCAT’s purchase order number must appear on all shipping containers, packing sheets, delivery tickets and bills of lading.
CCAT reserves the right to reschedule any delivery or cancel any purchase order issued at any time prior to shipment of the Goods or prior to commencement of any Services. CCAT shall not be subject to any charges or other fees as a result of such cancellation.
Acceptance by CCAT of all or part of the items shall not constitute a waiver by CCAT of its claims arising from delays in delivery.
4. SHIPPING INSTRUCTIONS
Shipments Originating and Terminating in the United States – Unless otherwise specified by CCAT, all shipments that originate and terminate in the United States shall be FOB destination.
Shipments Originating or Terminating Outside the United States – Unless otherwise specified in the Agreement, all shipments (a) which originate outside the United States and terminate in the United States shall be delivered DDU, United States port of entry; and (b) which originate and terminate outside the United States shall be delivered DDU at the point designated in the Agreement (or if there is no designation of any DDU point in the Agreement, DDU at CCAT’s facility). Except as otherwise specified in the Agreement, the term “DDU” and the rights and obligations of CCAT and Seller will be as defined by Incoterms 2000, the ICC Official Rules for the Interpretation of Trade Terms.
5. IDENTIFICATION, RISK OF LOSS & DESTRUCTION OF GOODS.
Seller assumes all risk of loss until receipt by CCAT. Title to the Goods shall pass to CCAT upon receipt by it of the Goods at the designated destination. If the Goods ordered are destroyed prior to title passing to CCAT, CCAT may at its option cancel the Agreement 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, CCAT shall have the right to require delivery of the Goods not destroyed.
6. INSPECTION; REJECTION.
All materials and workmanship entering into the performance of this Agreement may be inspected and tested at all times and places by representatives of CCAT, including during the period of manufacture or performance. If made on the premises of Seller or its supplier, such tests and inspections shall be made in a manner that will not unduly delay work under this Agreement, and Seller shall furnish without additional charge all reasonable facilities and assistance for the safety and convenience of CCAT’s representatives in the performance of their duties. Seller shall tender to CCAT for acceptance only goods that have been manufactured under, and inspected by, appropriate quality control and inspection systems maintained by Seller and have been found to be in conformity with the requirements of this Agreement. As part of these systems, Seller shall prepare records evidencing all inspections made under this Agreement and their outcome, which records shall be complete and available to CCAT upon request during the performance of this Agreement and for two years after final payment.
Unless agreed to otherwise CCAT shall have forty-five (45) days, unless under the circumstances a longer period of time is required, to inspect the Goods or Services before payment, for conformity. However, CCAT’s right of review, whether or not exercised, does not relieve Seller of any of its obligations for inspection, testing, performance, or associated documentation. Use of a portion of the Goods for the purpose of testing shall not constitute an acceptance of the Goods. If Goods tendered do not wholly conform to these provisions, CCAT shall have the right to reject such Goods.
7. PAYMENT.
The parties agree that, upon signing this Agreement, CCAT obtains a special property and insurable interest in the Goods or Services that are the subject of this Agreement. Any deposit or partial payment made by CCAT is refundable upon breach by the Seller, subject to the remedies provided for in this Agreement. As full consideration for the performance of the Services, delivery of the Goods and the assignment of rights to CCAT as provided, CCAT shall pay Seller (i) the amount agreed upon and specified in the applicable purchase order, or (ii) Seller’s quoted price on date of shipment (for Goods), or the date Services were started (for Services), whichever is lower. Seller acknowledges that no sales, use or other taxes will be due upon the sale because CCAT is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt corporation. At Seller’s request, CCAT shall provide appropriate documentation of its tax-exempt status. Other charges such as shipping costs, duties, customs, tariffs, imposts and government-imposed surcharges shall be stated separately on Seller’s invoice. Payment is made when CCAT’s check is mailed. Payment shall not constitute acceptance. All personal property taxes assessable upon the Goods prior to receipt by CCAT of Goods conforming to the purchase order shall be borne by Seller. Seller shall invoice CCAT for all Goods delivered and all Services actually performed. Each invoice submitted by Seller must be provided to CCAT within ninety (90) days of completion of the Services or delivery of Goods and must reference the applicable purchase order, and CCAT reserves the right to return all incorrect invoices. CCAT will receive a 2% discount of the invoiced amount for all invoices that are submitted more than ninety (90) days after completion of the Services or delivery of the Goods. Unless otherwise specified on the face of a purchase order, CCAT shall pay the invoiced amount within forty-five (45) days after receipt of a correct invoice. Seller will receive no royalty or other remuneration on the production or distribution of any products developed by CCAT or Seller in connection with or based on the Goods or Services provided.
8. WARRANTIES.
8.1 Services: Seller represents and warrants that all Services shall be completed in a professional and workmanlike manner, with the degree of skill and care that is required by current, good, sound, and generally accepted professional procedures, by appropriately licensed personnel who are trained and experienced in the appropriate fields. Further, Seller represents and warrants that the Services shall be completed in accordance with applicable specifications and shall be correct and appropriate for the purposes contemplated in this Agreement. Seller warrants that the Services to be provided by Seller shall be performed in a timely and professional manner that enables the goods to perform in the manner contemplated by the parties. Seller represents and warrants that the performance of Services under this Agreement will not conflict with, or be prohibited in any way by, any other agreement or statutory restriction to which Seller is bound.
8.2 Goods: Seller warrants to CCAT, its successors, assigns, customers, and users of Goods sold by CCAT that all Goods provided shall be: (i) merchantable, (ii) new (unless specifically agreed to in writing), (iii) free from defects in material and workmanship, (iv) with regard to Goods designed by Supplier, free from defects in design, (v) suitable for the particular purposes intended whether expressed or reasonably implied, (vi) free from any security interest or other lien or encumbrance of which CCAT at the time of contracting has no knowledge, (vii) of good title and (viii) in compliance with all applicable specifications, drawings, and performance requirements which may be attached to this Agreement. Seller agrees that it will make spare parts available to CCAT for a period of five (5) years from the date of shipment at Sellers then current price, less applicable discounts.
The warranty period shall begin as of when the Goods or Services are placed in use and shall extend for a period of fifteen (15) months or for a period provided in the Seller’s standard warranty, whichever is longer. Replacement and repaired Goods shall be warranted for the remainder of the warranty period or six (6) months, whichever is longer. All warranties shall be construed as conditions as well as warranties and shall not be exclusive. Seller shall furnish to CCAT Seller’s standard warranty and service guaranty applicable to the Goods.
These warranty provisions survive any inspection, delivery, acceptance, payment, expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement and such warranties shall run to CCAT, its successors, assigns, employees, students, and users of the material.
8.3 Price: Seller warrants that the prices for the Goods sold or Services provided to CCAT are not more than those currently extended to any other customer for the same or similar Goods or Services in similar quantities. In the event Seller reduces its price for such Goods or Services during the term of this Agreement Seller agrees to reduce the prices of this Agreement correspondingly. No additional charges or rates of any type shall be added without CCAT’s prior written consent.
9. REMEDIES.
If Seller breaches this Agreement, CCAT shall have all remedies available by law and at equity, including but not limited to, cancellation, rescission, rejection, revocation of acceptance, substitute goods, specific performance, and recovery of all damages and deduction of damages from the price.
Without limiting the forgoing remedies, with respect to any Goods or Services not conforming to Seller’s warranties under this Agreement, CCAT may, by written notice to Seller: (a) rescind this Agreement as to such non-conforming material; (b) accept such material at an equitable reduction in price; (c) reject such nonconforming material and require repair or the delivery of suitable replacements; (d) credit CCAT’s account for the same or (e) elect to repair at Seller’s expense. Repair shall be performed solely by Seller or its authorized agents. Cost of replacement, rework, inspection, repackaging and transportation of such corrected material shall be at the Seller’s expense. Deliveries of corrected or replaced Goods or Services shall be accomplished promptly and shall be accompanied by written notice specifying that such Goods or Services are corrected or replaced. If Seller fails to deliver suitable replacements promptly or if re-performance does not remedy Seller’s unsatisfactory performance, CCAT reserves the right to procure substitute services from another source or sources and to charge Seller with the costs or terminate this Agreement for default.
The rejected goods returned to Seller shall not be repaired or replaced by Seller except upon written instructions from CCAT. Rejected goods shall not again be tendered to CCAT for acceptance without disclosure of former rejection. Seller shall not use any Goods purchased for the performance of this Agreement for any other Agreement. Should CCAT elect to repair the nonconforming goods, all terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as to the goods furnished by Seller. Acceptance shall be conclusive except as regards latent defects, fraud, or such gross mistakes as amount to fraud. CCAT’s rights under this section shall be in addition to and shall not be deemed to diminish its rights under the warranties section of this Agreement.
In the event that CCAT incurs additional costs or CCAT’s customer charges CCAT for additional costs related to a breach of Seller’s warranties or a breach of delivery terms by Seller, Seller agrees that CCAT shall have the right to: (i) reduce the amount payable under this Agreement; including, without limitation, deduction or setoff pursuant to this Agreement; and (ii) charge Seller for additional costs or customer charges greater than the amount of this Agreement or otherwise not deductible against this Agreement.
Seller acknowledges that CCAT may recover all damages or costs it incurs as a result of or relating to Seller’s breach of any warranties of the failure of Seller to correct defects in or replace nonconforming Goods promptly. While CCAT may have available to it contractual or other limitations with respect to its own customers, CCAT may in some instances decide to provide corrective Goods or Services, or reimburse such customers for quality issues, losses and for damages beyond CCAT’s strict contractual or legal obligations. Where such corrective action payments or expenses by CCAT result from or are related to defects or failures by Seller in Seller’s Goods or Services, CCAT may recover for such corrective action, payment and expenses from Seller.
10. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS,
CCAT is licensed to copy, embed and use all software provided under this Agreement onto a computer memory device and to make back-up copies of such software. Unless otherwise provided for in this Agreement, or in a prior written Agreement directed to the software provided here, CCAT’s sole obligation with respect to software provided under this Agreement shall be to use the software in compliance with applicable U.S. copyright laws and regulations, irrespective of any other license agreement including, but not limited to, any license agreement packaged with such software.
Seller agrees that, for any works of authorship created by Seller or any employees or subcontractors of Seller in the course of this Agreement, those works that come under one of the categories of “Works Made for Hire” in 17 U.S.C. 101 shall be considered Works Made for Hire. For any works of authorship that do not come under such categories, Seller warrants that it has right to do so, hereby assigns and agrees to assign all right, title, and interest it has to any copyright in such works and will execute or cause to be executed at Seller’s expense any documents required to establish CCAT’s ownership of such copyright.
11. CHANGES
CCAT, at any time, shall have the right to make changes within the general scope of this Agreement, including, but not limited to any one or more of the following: (i) shipping or packing instructions, (ii) place of delivery or delivery schedule, (iii) any changes in the quantities, drawings, designs or specifications, (iv) services, or (v) the method or manner of performance of the services. If any change under this section causes an increase or decrease in the cost of or the time required for performance, an equitable adjustment shall be made in price or delivery schedule or both, and the Agreement shall be modified in writing accordingly.
Information, such as technical direction or guidance provided to Seller by representatives of CCAT in connection with the Seller’s performance of this Agreement, shall not be constructed either as a change within the meaning of this section, or as direction to proceed outside the scope of this purchase order. No change will be binding on CCAT unless issued in writing by an authorized representative of CCAT’s purchasing department.
Notwithstanding the pendency of any claim for an adjustment submitted by Seller under this Agreement, Seller shall diligently proceed with the performance of the Agreement, as directed by CCAT, and nothing in this agreement shall be construed as relieving Seller of its obligations to perform including without limitation the failure of the parties to agree upon Seller’s entitlement to, or the amount or nature of, any such adjustment.
12. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR.
CCAT is interested only in the results obtained under this Agreement; the manner and means of achieving the results are subject to Seller’s sole control. Seller is an independent contractor for all purposes, without express or implied authority to bind CCAT by contract or otherwise. Neither Seller nor its employees, agents or subcontractors (“Seller’s Assistants”) are agents or employees of CCAT, and therefore are not entitled to any employee benefits of CCAT, including but not limited to, any type of insurance. Seller shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incident to performing its obligations under this Agreement and shall provide Seller’s own supplies and equipment.
13. SELLER RESPONSIBLE FOR TAXES AND RECORDS.
Seller shall be solely responsible for filing the appropriate federal, state and local tax forms, including, without limitation, a Schedule C or a Form 1020, and paying all such taxes or fees, including estimated taxes and employment taxes, due with respect to Seller’s receipt of payment under this Agreement. Seller further agrees to provide CCAT with reasonable assistance if there is a government audit. CCAT shall have no responsibility to pay or withhold from any payment to Seller under this Agreement, any federal, state or local taxes or fees. CCAT will regularly report amounts paid to Seller by filing Form 1099-MISC with the Internal Revenue Service.
14. INSURANCE.
Seller shall maintain and require Seller’s Assistants to maintain such adequate health, auto, workers’ compensation, unemployment compensation, disability, liability, and other insurance as CCAT specifically requires or as is required by law or as is the common practice in Seller’s and Seller’s Assistants’ trades or businesses whichever affords greater coverage. Upon request, Seller shall provide CCAT with certificates of insurance or evidence of coverage before commencing performance under this Agreement. Seller shall provide adequate coverage for any CCAT property under the care, custody or control of Seller or Seller’s Assistants.
15. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
IN NO EVENT SHALL CCAT BE LIABLE TO SELLER OR SELLER’S ASSISTANTS, OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER OR NOT CCAT WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.
16. INDEMNIFICATION.
Seller shall indemnify, hold harmless, and at CCAT’s request, defend CCAT, its officers, directors, customers, agents and employees, against all claims, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and cost of suit arising out of or in any way connected with the Goods or Services provided under this Agreement, including, without limitation, (i) any claim based on the death or bodily injury to any person, destruction or damage to property, or contamination of the environment and any associated clean up costs, (ii) Seller failing to satisfy the Internal Revenue Service’s guidelines for an independent contractor, (iii) any claim based on the negligence, omissions or willful misconduct of Seller or any Seller’s Assistants, and (iv) any claim by a third party against CCAT alleging that the Goods or Services, the results of such Services, or any other products or processes provided under this Agreement, infringe a patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret or other proprietary right of a third party, whether such are provided alone or in combination with other products, software or processes. Seller shall not settle any such suit or claim without CCAT’s prior written approval. Seller agrees to pay or reimburse all costs that may be incurred by CCAT in enforcing this indemnity, including attorneys’ fees.
Should CCAT’s use, or use by its distributors, subcontractors or customers, of any Goods or Services purchased from Seller be enjoined, be threatened by injunction, or be the subject of any legal proceeding, Seller shall, at is sole cost and expense, either (a) substitute fully equivalent non-infringing Goods or Services; (b) modify the Goods or Services so that they no longer infringe but remain fully equivalent in functionality; (c) obtain for CCAT, its distributors, subcontractors or customers the right to continue using the Goods or Services; or (d) if none of the foregoing is possible, refund all amounts paid for the infringing Goods or Services.
17. CONFIDENTIALITY.
Technical and business information and ideas disclosed to Seller by CCAT (“CCAT Confidential Information”) in connection with this Agreement, includes but is not limited to all information, whether written or oral, in any form, including without limitation, HIPPA-protected information, information relating to the research, development, products, methods of manufacture, trade secrets, business plans, customers, vendors, finances, personnel data, Work Product and other material or information considered proprietary by CCAT relating to the current or anticipated business or affairs of CCAT which is disclosed directly or indirectly to Seller and are entrusted to Seller only for use on behalf of CCAT. In addition, CCAT Confidential Information means any third party’s proprietary or confidential information disclosed to Seller in the course of providing Services or Goods to CCAT. Seller shall keep proprietary information in confidence and shall neither use (other than in performance under this Agreement or other Agreements from CCAT) nor disclose such proprietary information except as authorized in writing by CCAT. On completion of this or all subsequent related orders (as appropriate), Seller shall deliver to CCAT or destroy to CCAT’s satisfaction all material embodying proprietary information, including all reproductions, unless otherwise instructed by CCAT.
CCAT Confidential Information does not include, and Seller shall not be liable for use or disclosure of any proprietary information (i) which Seller lawfully knew without restriction on disclosure before CCAT disclosed it to Seller, (ii) which is now or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act or failure to act of Seller, (iii) which Seller developed independently without use of the CCAT Confidential Information, as evidenced by appropriate documentation, or (iv) which is lawfully furnished to Seller by a third party as a matter of right and without restriction on disclosure. In addition, Seller may disclose Confidential Information which is required to be disclosed pursuant to a requirement of a government agency or law so long as Seller provides prompt notice to CCAT of such requirement prior to disclosure.
Seller agrees not to copy, alter or directly or indirectly disclose any CCAT Confidential Information. Additionally, Seller agrees to limit its internal distribution of CCAT Confidential Information to Seller’s Assistants who have a need to know, and to take steps to ensure that the dissemination is so limited, including the execution by Seller’s Assistants of nondisclosure agreements with provisions substantially similar to those set forth in this Agreement. In no event will Seller use less than the degree of care and means that it uses to protect its own information of like kind, but not less than reasonable care to prevent the unauthorized use of CCAT Confidential Information.
Seller further agrees not to use the CCAT Confidential Information except in the course of performing this Agreement and will not use such CCAT Confidential Information for its own benefit or for the benefit of any third party. The mingling of the CCAT Confidential Information with information of Seller shall not affect the confidential nature or ownership of the same. Seller agrees not to design or manufacture any products that incorporate CCAT Confidential Information. All CCAT Confidential Information is and shall remain the property of CCAT. Upon CCAT’s written request or the termination of this Agreement, Seller shall return, transfer or assign to CCAT all CCAT Confidential Information, including all Work Product and all copies.
18. OWNERSHIP OF WORK PRODUCT.
All Work Product shall at all times be and remain the sole and exclusive property of CCAT. Seller agrees to irrevocably assign and transfer to CCAT and does assign and transfer to CCAT all of its worldwide right, title and interest in and to the Work Product including all associated intellectual property rights. CCAT will have the sole right to determine the treatment of any Work Product, including the right to keep it as trade secret, execute and file patent applications on it, to use and disclose it without prior patent application, to file registrations for copyright or trademark in its own name or to follow any other procedure that CCAT deems appropriate. Seller agrees: (a) to disclose promptly in writing to CCAT all Work Product in its possession; (b) to assist CCAT in every reasonable way, at CCAT’s expense, to secure, perfect, register, apply for, maintain, and defend for CCAT’s benefit all copyrights, patent rights, mask work rights, trade secret rights, and all other proprietary rights or statutory protections in and to the Work Product in CCAT’s name as it deems appropriate; and (c) to otherwise treat all Work Product as CCAT Confidential Information as described above. These obligations to disclose, assist, execute and keep confidential survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement. All tools and equipment supplied by CCAT to Seller shall remain the sole property of CCAT.
Seller will ensure that Seller’s Assistants appropriately waive any and all claims and assign to CCAT any and all rights or any interests in any Work Product or original works created in connection with this Agreement. Seller irrevocably agrees not to assert against CCAT or its direct or indirect customers, assignees or licensees any claim of any intellectual property rights of Seller affecting the Work Product.
CCAT will not have rights to any works conceived or reduced to practice by Seller which were developed entirely on Seller’s own time without using equipment, supplies, facilities or trade secret or CCAT Confidential Information, unless (i) such works relate to CCAT’s business, or CCAT’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, or (ii) such works result from any Services performed by Seller for CCAT.
19. SUSPENSION AND DEBARMENT
Seller shall promptly notify CCAT if Seller is suspended, debarred, or proposed for suspension or debarment. If Seller fails to so notify CCAT within a reasonable time, Seller shall indemnify and hold CCAT harmless against any loss or damage suffered by CCAT as a result of its issuing any subcontracts to Seller after such notice should have been given.
20. NONINTERFERENCE WITH BUSINESS.
During and for a period of two years immediately after the termination or expiration of this Agreement, Seller agrees not to unlawfully interfere with the business of CCAT in any manner, and further agrees not to solicit or induce any employee or independent contractor to terminate or breach an employment, contractual or other relationship with CCAT.
21. TERMINATION.

If this Agreement is entirely or partially terminated by CCAT for Default, CCAT may procure, upon such terms and in such manner as CCAT may deem appropriate, Goods or Services similar to those terminated, and Seller shall be liable to CCAT for all reprocurement costs, including any price for such similar Goods or Services that is higher than this Agreement, provided however, that Seller shall continue the performance of this Agreement to the extent not terminated. Seller shall not be liable for such additional costs if Seller’s failure to perform arises out of causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of Seller as described in the section entitled “Force Majeure”.
If this Agreement is entirely or partially terminated under this section, CCAT, in addition to any other rights, may require Seller to: (i) transfer title and deliver to CCAT in the manner and to the extent directed by CCAT any completed Goods and any partially completed Goods and materials, parts, components, tools, dies, jigs, fixtures, plans, drawings, information, and contract rights (“contract materials”) as the Seller has specifically produced or specifically acquired for the performance of such part of this Agreement as has been terminated; or (ii) protect and preserve property in the possession of Seller in which CCAT has an interest.
Payment for completed Goods delivered or rendered to and accepted by CCAT, and for the protection and preservation of property, shall be in an amount agreed upon by Seller and CCAT.

21.2 Termination for Convenience: The performance of work under this Agreement may be terminated, in whole or in part, or from time to time in part, by CCAT for its convenience by delivery to Seller of a notice of termination specifying the extent to which performance of work under the Agreement is terminated, and the date which such termination becomes effective. After receipt of a notice of termination and except as otherwise directed by CCAT, Seller shall immediately: (i) Stop work on the date and to the extent specified in the notice of termination; (ii) Place no further orders or suborders for materials, services, or facilities except as may be necessary for completion of such portions of the work under the Agreement that is not terminated; (iii) Terminate all orders and suborders to the extent that they relate to the performance of any work terminated by the notice of termination; (iv) Assign to CCAT, in the manner, and to the extent directed by CCAT all of the right, title and interest of Seller under the Agreements or subcontracts terminated; (v) Settle all outstanding liabilities and all claims arising out of such termination of Agreements and subcontracts subject to the approval or ratification of CCAT to the extent CCAT may require, which approval or ratification shall be final for all the purposes of this section; and (vi) Transfer title and deliver in the manner, to the extent, and at the times directed by CCAT (a) the fabricated or unfabricated parts, work in process, completed work, supplies, and other material produced as a part of, or acquired in connection with the performance of, the work terminated by the notice of termination, and (b) the completed or partially completed plans, drawings, information, and other property which, if the Agreement had been completed, would be required to be furnished to CCAT.
CCAT shall pay Seller for the portion of the Services satisfactorily performed or those conforming Goods delivered to and accepted by CCAT through the date of termination, less appropriate offsets, including any additional costs to be incurred by CCAT in completing the Services.
22. FORCE MAJEURE.
CCAT shall not be liable for any failure to perform including failure to accept performance of Services or, take delivery of the Goods as provided, and Seller shall not be liable for delays or defaults in delivery caused by circumstances beyond their control which make such performance commercially impractical including, but not limited to, acts of God, fire, flood, acts of war, acts of terrorism, government action, accident, labor difficulties or shortage, inability to obtain materials, equipment or transportation. Either party’s performance shall be suspended for the duration of the event rendering proper performance impractical or impossible provided, however, that if such suspension shall continue in excess of thirty (30) days, the parties shall meet to effect a mutually acceptable compromise, failing which, either party may terminate this Agreement in respect of the affected goods upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the other party.
23. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AGREEMENT IN WRITING.
These Standard Terms and Conditions, together with CCAT’s purchase order, request for proposal or request for quote and Seller’s work proposal or quote for Goods and Services constitutes the complete, final and exclusive agreement of purchase and sale between the parties and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous negotiations and agreements, whether oral or written, between them relating to the subject matter contained in this Agreement. Any terms and conditions proposed in Seller’s acceptance or in any acknowledgment, invoice, or other form of Seller that add to, vary from, or conflict with these terms are rejected.
24. SEVERABILITY.
If any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired.
25. ASSIGNMENT; WAIVER.
Seller may not assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, or any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of CCAT. Any assignment or transfer without such written consent shall be null and void and shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement.
