Purchase Order Terms and Conditions

Effective Date: 21 May 2026 | Version: Rev 1

  1. Agreement.
    Any purchase order (“Order”) placed by SOMOS IWT, Inc. (“SOMOS IWT”) is an offer that is deemed to incorporate these Terms and Conditions – Purchase Orders (“T&C”). Supplier’s acceptance is limited to the terms and conditions of the Order and these T&C. Supplier accepts the Order by (a) shipping the goods or providing the services specified in this Order or (b) returning a signed copy of these T&C. Any additional or different terms proposed by Supplier are rejected by SOMOS IWT unless expressly agreed to in writing.
  2. Assignment.
    The Order shall not be assigned by Supplier in whole or in part without prior written consent of SOMOS IWT, any such attempted assignment being null and void.
  3. Changes.
    1. Generally. SOMOS IWT may request changes to the Order by submitting a written request. In the event that the change in terms will result in a change in the cost to Supplier, then Supplier’s sole remedy shall be either (a) to request a change to the price of the goods or services required to fulfill the remainder of the Order or (b) to cancel the remainder of the Order. Supplier is required to provide notice to SOMOS IWT of any resulting change in price or intention to terminate the Order. SOMOS IWT has the right to terminate the Order if Supplier’s request for a change in pricing is not acceptable.
    2. Tariffs. Supplier’s quoted prices are fixed as of the Order date and shall not be adjusted to reflect tariff increases, duties, or trade-related charges enacted after Order confirmation, unless agreed in writing by SOMOS IWT. Any tariff-related price adjustment requires SOMOS IWT’s prior written approval.
  4. Change Notices.
    Supplier shall not modify the quality, quantity, nature, or delivery or performance schedule, nor shall Supplier increase the price, of goods or services to be delivered or performed hereunder except by written change order expressly agreed to in writing by SOMOS IWT.
  5. Delays; Penalties.
    Time is of the essence for this Order. The delivery date on the Order is arrival at SOMOS IWT. SOMOS IWT reserves the right to withhold payment on early shipments until after the specified delivery dates. In the event of delay, SOMOS IWT may, without waiving any other legal rights, withhold payment, deduct 5 percent per day beyond the delivery date, terminate for cause in accordance with Article 7a below, or postpone delivery of goods or services that are not shipped or provided in time to reasonably meet specified delivery dates. In the event Supplier suffers a Force Majeure Event (hereafter defined), the delivery date shall be extended for the period such event remains in effect.
  6. Cancellation.
    SOMOS IWT may cancel any portion of the Order that has not been fulfilled by Supplier by providing written notice to the Supplier.
  7. Termination.
    1. For Cause. SOMOS IWT may terminate the Order in whole or in part and reject delivery of goods or services if such delivery or performance is not undertaken and completed within the time specified in the Order and within the specifications, and SOMOS IWT may charge Supplier for losses sustained due to such delay or failure. If SOMOS IWT provided a deposit with the Order, Supplier shall return to SOMOS IWT an amount equal to the unfulfilled portion of the Order and losses sustained by SOMOS IWT due to delay or failure. Return of the deposit is not SOMOS IWT’s exclusive remedy.
    2. For Convenience. SOMOS IWT may terminate the Order for convenience, in which case Supplier may submit in writing within fifteen (15) days of termination a list of non-standard parts, products, or services purchased by Supplier specifically to fulfill the requirements of this Order and request reimbursement at cost. If requested by SOMOS IWT, Supplier shall provide supporting documentation for any reimbursement requested. SOMOS IWT shall pay Supplier the reimbursement payment not later than forty-five (45) days after receipt of Supplier’s list or supporting documentation, whichever comes later.
  8. Inspection.
    Goods or services purchased hereunder shall be subject to SOMOS IWT’s count, inspection, and testing at any reasonable time and from time to time before, during, or after manufacture or delivery. Notwithstanding any payment that may be made, no goods or services are to be deemed accepted until SOMOS IWT has had a reasonable opportunity to inspect and test them. If any inspection or test is to be made on the Supplier’s premises, Supplier without additional charge shall provide all reasonable facilities and assistance for the safety and convenience of the inspectors in the performance of their duties. Supplier’s inspection shall never constitute a waiver of the right to subsequent rejection by reason of any undiscovered patent or latent defect. 
  9. Payment Terms.
    Unless otherwise specified in the Order, SOMOS IWT will pay invoiced amounts within forty-five (45) days of receipt of Supplier’s invoice. SOMOS IWT has the right to offset from any payment any amount owed by Supplier to SOMOS IWT, whether pursuant to this Order or another agreement or Order with Supplier.
  10. Supplier’s Intellectual Property Warranty.
    Supplier warrants that it is the owner or permissible licensor of all right, title, and interest in and to any intellectual property rights contained or reflected in the goods and services to be delivered or performed under the Order, including without limitation copyright, patent, trade secrets, designs, and source code. Supplier further warrants that no part of the goods or services infringes upon the intellectual property rights of any third party. Supplier shall pay all royalties and license fees associated with the goods or services. Supplier shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless SOMOS IWT from and against any claims, proceedings, losses, and liabilities (including reasonable attorney fees and court costs) arising out of Supplier’s breach of this paragraph.
