Compuage Infocom Ltd.’s silence or failure to respond to any such subsequent or different term, condition or proposal shall not be deemed to be Compuage Infocom Ltd.’s acceptance thereof. Buyer may not change, cancel or reschedule orders for Products without Compuage Infocom Ltd.’s prior written consent.
Quotations: Quotes from Compuage Infocom Ltd. shall be applicable for the period specified in the quote. Compuage Infocom Ltd. reserves the right to allocate the sale of Products among its buyers.

Buyer shall notify Compuage Infocom Ltd., no later than five (5) business days after delivery, of any claimed shortages or rejection as to any delivery and must meet all other Compuage Infocom Ltd. Buyer shall provide such notice in writing and with reasonable detail, stating the grounds for any such rejection. Buyer’s failure to give such notice within the time specified is deemed an acceptance in full of any such delivery
3. PRICE AND PAYMENT
Buyer shall bear all Additional Fees (except as otherwise provided in Compuage Infocom Ltd. shipping policy in above link). Compuage Infocom Ltd.’s prices set forth on invoice do not include Additional Fees. All information relating Compuage Infocom Ltd. pricing is Compuage Infocom Ltd. proprietary and confidential and Buyer will keep such information confidential. Buyer must present exemption certificates to Compuage Infocom Ltd. prior to shipment if they are to be honored. Compuage Infocom Ltd. shall invoice Buyer for all taxes applicable to sales of the Products, itemized by type and jurisdiction, which Compuage Infocom Ltd. is required by law to collect from Buyer. Upon Buyer’s request, Compuage Infocom Ltd. will provide Buyer with sufficient documentation to enable Buyer to complete any necessary tax filings or claim any applicable tax credits for amounts paid to Compuage Infocom Ltd. If applicable law requires Buyer to deduct any amount from the amounts to be paid to Compuage Infocom Ltd. due to withholding taxes or any other taxes or levies of any kind, Buyer shall pay all such additional amounts so that the net amounts received by Compuage Infocom Ltd. are the amounts specified on the invoice. To the extent that any withholding tax is payable, Compuage Infocom Ltd. and Buyer shall mutually collaborate and provide any and all assistance reasonably requested to obtain the benefits of any applicable tax treaty between the country where the Compuage Infocom Ltd. entity that accepted Buyer Order is located and the applicable jurisdiction where the withholding tax applied.
Payment Terms: Payment is due as stated on Compuage Infocom Ltd.’s invoice without offset or any deduction for withholding taxes or other fees. Compuage Infocom Ltd., at its discretion, may require reasonable advance assurances of payment through irrevocable bank letters of credit or otherwise. All unpaid invoices will bear interest at an amount equal to 1-1/2% of the outstanding balance per month (or the maximum rate of interest allowed to be contracted for by law, whichever is less), starting on the date payment is due. Buyer’s failure to make timely payment may result in such action as the commencement of proceedings for collection, revocation of credit, cancellation of Orders, stoppage of shipment, delay or cessation of future deliveries, repossession of unpaid delivered goods, and termination of any one or more sales agreements. At any time, Compuage Infocom Ltd. may change the terms of Buyer’s credit. Compuage Infocom Ltd. may apply payments to any of Buyer’s accounts. Notwithstanding any “net” payment provisions specified on the invoice, Compuage Infocom Ltd. shall have no continuing obligation to deliver Products on credit, and any credit approval may be withdrawn by Compuage Infocom Ltd. at any time and without prior notice. Prior to accepting an Order, Compuage Infocom Ltd. may require Buyer to grant Compuage Infocom Ltd. a security interest in the Product, plus all accounts resulting therefrom as a condition of accepting an Order. Buyer agrees to execute a Security Agreement in a form acceptable to Compuage Infocom Ltd., and Buyer authorizes Compuage Infocom Ltd. to file such financing statements as Compuage Infocom Ltd. deems appropriate to perfect and/or continue Compuage Infocom Ltd.’s purchase money security interest therein.
Collections: If Compuage Infocom Ltd. engages an attorney or collection agency for the purpose of collection or enforcing Compuage Infocom Ltd.’s security interest in the Products, with or without litigation, Buyer shall pay any and all associated costs, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and costs (whether incurred prior to, during, or subsequent to trial), collection, bankruptcy, or other creditor’s rights proceedings. Compuage Infocom Ltd. reserves the right to effect recoupment, to set off of any funds due at any time to Buyer from Compuage Infocom Ltd., and to set off any amounts against amounts owed by Buyer to Compuage Infocom Ltd.
Currency: If a sale is to occur (or the Product is to be shipped) outside of the United States, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the amount due Compuage Infocom Ltd. is contracted in U.S. Dollars and that payment in U.S. Dollars is of the essence. Any payment by Buyer in local currency or the receipt by Compuage Infocom Ltd. of local currency as a consequence of enforcement procedures against Buyer will be deemed (a) an authorization for Compuage Infocom Ltd. to use that local currency to purchase U.S. Dollars or, (b) if such purchase is prohibited by local law, an authorization to purchase appropriate bonds or other instruments and export them from the Buyer’s country in order to convert the currency into U.S. Dollars and apply the proceeds to the payment of any amounts owed to Compuage Infocom Ltd. by Buyer. Buyer is responsible for any deficiency as a result of the conversion of payment into U.S. Dollars.
4. RETURNS
Compuage Infocom Ltd.’s Product Return policies in effect on the date of the invoice, or as otherwise provided by Compuage Infocom Ltd. to Buyer in writing, will control any return of Products. All Orders for Products that Compuage Infocom Ltd. identifies as non-standard or “NCNR” are non-cancelable and non-returnable. Compuage Infocom Ltd. may identify Products as NCNR by various means including, but not limited to, quotes and product lists. Compuage Infocom Ltd. reserves the right to modify or eliminate such policies at any time. The right to return defective Products as set forth herein shall constitute Compuage Infocom Ltd.’s sole liability and Reseller’s exclusive remedy in connection with any claim of any kind relating to the quality, condition, or performance of any Product, whether such claim is based upon breach of contract, warranty, negligence or other torts, breach of any statutory duty, indemnity or contribution, the failure of any limited or exclusive remedy to achieve its essential purpose, or otherwise. If Compuage Infocom Ltd. issues a return authorization to Buyer allowing Buyer to return Product to Compuage Infocom Ltd., Buyer will deliver the Product to Compuage Infocom Ltd.’s specified address in the United States and Buyer shall bear Additional Fees designated or levied, on any replacement Product to be shipped by Compuage Infocom Ltd. to Buyer. If Compuage Infocom Ltd. determines such Products are not eligible for return, Compuage Infocom Ltd. will, at its sole discretion, send such Products back to Buyer on freight collect basis, or hold such Products (at Buyer’s expense) for Buyer’s collection and on Buyer’s account.
