The number of hours for Service shall be those set forth in the Quote.

2. Purchase Price/Payment. The price for the Products and Services (“Purchase Price”) is stated in the Quote, absent typographic or other errors, which are subject to correction. Applicable sales tax, shipping costs, and handling fees will be added to final invoice.

Unless otherwise provided, payment is due in US dollars within 30 days from invoice date. Payment shall be made by ACH or bank wire or as otherwise agreed. Where applicable, when Products are placed at the disposal of the Buyer or the end-user of the Products (“Owner”) ready for unloading, delivery shall be deemed to have occurred, and invoices “due upon delivery” of Products shall be due 30 days thereafter. Any undisputed amounts not paid when due will be subject to interest computed at a rate equal to 1.5% per month or the highest rate permissible under law. Undisputed invoices shall be paid regardless of disputes relating to other invoices.

3. Force Majeure. Wigen shall not be liable or in breach of this Agreement or the Quote for any delay or failure of delivery or of any other performance caused in whole or part by any contingency beyond Wigen’s reasonable control, including, without limitation, hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, acts/threats of terrorism, acts/omissions of any government or governmental agency, and/or any shortage of or inability to secure labor, fuel, energy, raw materials, supplies or machinery at reasonable prices. In such event, the time for Wigen’s performance shall be extended by the amount of time lost, plus additional time, if any, as reasonably necessary.

4. Buyer’s Delay. Wigen shall not be liable or considered in breach of this Agreement or the Quote for any delay or failure of delivery or of any other performance caused in whole or part by acts/omissions of Buyer or Buyer’s agents.

Buyer shall be liable for additional expenses reasonably incurred by Wigen, if any, due to Buyer’s delays.

5. Termination. Should Buyer wish to terminate the Quote for convenience, Buyer shall pay Wigen for all materials and Products (whether procured, in progress, or completed, if any) and for all Services performed, if any; in addition, at Wigen’s sole discretion, Buyer shall pay Wigen an additional fee of 50% of a scheduled Field Service Appointment should Buyer provide notice of termination within 3 to 5 calendar days of such Field Service Appointment OR 100% of a scheduled Field Service appointment should Buyer provide notice of termination within 1 to 2 calendar days of such Field Service Appointment.
