SALES TERMS AND CONDITIONS
- Contract Terms. These terms and conditions apply to all goods and services ordered by you (“Customer”) from Kyle Enterprises, LLC d/b/a Millennium (“Company”). By ordering any goods or services from Company, Customer agrees to these terms and conditions. These terms and conditions and any documentation Customer receives from Company relating to Customer’s order of goods or services are the only terms and conditions that apply to Customer’s purchase of goods or services from Company; they supersede all provisions contained in any document or other communication issued by Customer, and they also supersede all other prior oral and written agreements between Company and Customer. Customer may not amend or modify these terms and conditions without our written permission. Any additional or different terms proposed by Customer are objected to and they will have no force or effect unless accepted by Company in writing. Customer consents to transact business using electronic communications, to receive notices and disclosures electronically, and to use electronic signatures in lieu of using paper documents. Customer is not required to receive notices and disclosures or sign documents electronically. If Customer prefers not to do so, Customer may request to receive paper copies and withdraw its consent to transact business electronically at any time. Documents between Customer and Company may be electronically signed, and Customer agrees that the electronic signatures are the same as handwritten signatures for the purposes of validity, enforceability, and admissibility.
- Cancellation of or Change to Orders. Orders may not be cancelled or changed unless Company provides prior written consent, which may be withheld in its sole discretion. In the event Company consents to a requested cancellation or change of any one or more of Customer’s orders to Company, Customer shall reimburse and indemnify Company for and from all liabilities, claims, damages, debts, fees, costs, penalties and expenses (collectively, the “Cancellation/Change Damages”) Company incurs due to or arising from such cancellation or change, including, without limitation: (a) Cancellation/Change Damages Company incurs due to the cancellation of any change to Company’s own purchase order(s) to the manufacturer of the goods that are the subject of or affected by Customer’s cancellation or change, (b) Cancellation/Change Damages Company incurs due to the cancellation of or change to contracted for shipping services, (c) Cancellation/Change Damages Company incurs to store or warehouse goods that are the subject of or affected by Customer’s cancellation or change. Company’s consent to any requested cancellation or change of any one or more of Customer’s orders is conditional upon Customer’s delivery of timely payment to Company for all Cancellation/Change Damages within 5 days of Company’s written demand to Customer. Thus, notwithstanding any prior agreement on Company’s part to consent to a cancellation of or change to any one or more of Customer’s orders, if Customer fails to deliver to Company payment for identified Cancellation/Change Damages within 5 days of Company’s written demand to Customer, any prior consent or agreement to consent to Customer’s requested cancellation or change shall be void and of no effect, and in such event any cancellation of or change to the order (whether in whole or in part) shall be deemed a breach for which Company shall retain and reserve all of its rights to damages and losses arising therefrom, including (without limitation) our lost profit and other consequential damages. Company may, from time to time, change the services without Customer’s consent provided that such changes do not materially affect the nature or scope of the services, or the fees or any performance dates of the services. Notwithstanding any term or condition to the contrary herein, Customer may not, under any event or circumstance, cancel or change any purchase order placed with Company for goods that are custom in nature.
- Quoted Prices.
(a) Company’s quoted prices are based on the price for the ordered good and service on the day it accepts Customer’s order. However, Company may adjust the prices of certain commodities, including copper, steel, plastic and other resins, if the price of such commodity increases or decreases by 5% or more from the price initially quoted.
(b) If Customer requests that an order be expedited and Company agrees to expedite it, Customer will be responsible for the increased costs incurred by Company in expediting the order.

- Taxes. Sales, use, excise, property or similar taxes arising out of or relating to Customer’s order are not included in the price. Customer is responsible for paying all taxes arising out of or related to its order.
- Inspection and Rejection. Customer has the right to inspect and test all goods before accepting them. However, as long as the delivered quantity is within 5% of the ordered quantity, Customer may not reject the goods on the basis of such 5% fluctuation. Customer will be deemed to have accepted the goods unless it provides Company with written notice, within 24 hours of receiving the goods, of any defects, damages, failure to meet specifications, or of any shortage (outside the above mentioned 5% fluctuation) in the goods delivered. Such notice shall be deemed a rejection of the goods and such notice must include an explanation for the rejection and any applicable photographs of the damages or defects to the goods. Failure to give such notice within the prescribed period shall constitute acceptance of the goods. If Customer rejects the goods within the prescribed period, Company will have the option, at its discretion, to replace the goods or have Customer return the goods to Company. If Company replaces the goods, Company will be responsible only for providing Customer with the replacement goods. If Company has Customer return the goods to Company, Company will pay the shipping costs associated with returning the goods and Company will include the shipping costs in the damage claim after such damage or defect is validated by Company. All returned goods must be delivered by Customer to the F.O.B. shipping point to Company’s designated carrier. All replacement goods will be subject to these terms and conditions.
- Force Majeure. Company and Customer shall be excused from performance and compliance with these terms and conditions if their performance or compliance is prevented by acts of God, strikes, labor disputes, war, terrorism, civil disorders, vandalism, failures or delays in transportation, acts, orders or regulations of government, judicial action, shortage of labor, fuel, raw materials, machinery, parts or supplies, or any other cause beyond their control. However, Customer will not be excused from its payment obligations for any of the above reasons.
- Storage of Goods. Company shall not be liable for any loss or damage to the goods tendered, stored, or handled, however caused, unless such loss or damage resulted from a failure by Company to exercise the level of care with regard to the goods that a reasonably careful person would have exercised under the circumstances. Company will not liable for damages which could not have been avoided by the exercise of such care. Customer shall, at its own expense, maintain and carry insurance in full force and effect on the goods against fire or other casualty.

If Customer breaches these terms and conditions or breaches any other agreement or contract with Company, or if Company terminates Customer’s order for one of the reasons above, Company shall have all rights and remedies permitted by law or in equity against Customer. No matter what, no act or omission by Company will constitute a waiver of any of its rights or remedies, and Company’s rights and remedies, whether hereunder or under applicable law, are cumulative, such that if Company exercises or pursues one right or remedy, such pursuit will not be deemed to constitute an election or waiver of the other rights and remedies that Company is entitled to.
