PURCHASE ORDER TERMS AND CONDITIONS

St. Lawrence University (“St. Lawrence”) purchases goods and services (“Deliverables”) only on the terms and conditions set forth herein, which constitute the entire agreement between it and a vendor/seller (“Seller”).

  1. Offer and Acceptance; Terms Exclusive. Seller’s commencement of work on, or Seller’s shipment of Deliverables in response to, St. Lawrence’s purchase order (“Purchase Order”) shall be deemed an acceptance of the Purchase Order and these terms and conditions. St. Lawrence expressly objects to any and all different or additional terms and conditions of sale which Seller may set forth on its website, order acknowledgement form, or on any other document or communication of Seller related to St. Lawrence’s purchase of the Deliverables. St. Lawrence will recognize no modifications or additions to these terms and conditions unless it specifically agrees to them in writing. THIS OFFER IS EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. IF THE PURCHASE ORDER IS DEEMED AN ACCEPTANCE OF A PRIOR OFFER BY SELLER, ST. LAWRENCE’S ACCEPTANCE IS EXPRESSLY CONDITIONAL ON SELLER’S ASSENT TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
  2. Deliverables Being Purchased. The Deliverables being purchased shall be as specified in the Purchase Order and as may be further specified pursuant to such written specifications and/or drawings as may be referred to on the Purchase Order (collectively “Specifications”).
  3. Time of Performance. Performance of the Purchase Order at the date(s) specified for delivery of the Deliverables is an integral part hereof. Failure of Seller to make delivery of the Deliverables within the time specified on the Purchase Order, or within any extension agreed to in writing by St. Lawrence, shall constitute a breach. Seller shall immediately notify St. Lawrence in writing of any circumstance, event or occurrence which Seller believes or has reason to believe may result in the inability of Seller to deliver the Deliverables set forth in the Purchase Order on time. St. Lawrence, at its option, may accept delivery at an earlier or later date or dates, but such acceptance shall not be deemed to waive any right or remedy available to St. Lawrence under the Purchase Order. In the event of a breach, St. Lawrence may, in addition to its other rights and remedies, reject any Deliverables and/or terminate its order in whole or in part, and purchase substitute goods and/or services elsewhere and

charge Seller with any Loss incurred. The term “Loss” means every loss, liability, cost, damage and expense, including attorney’s fees and court costs. The term “Deliverables” means all goods and services to be delivered or provided as specified in St. Lawrence’s Purchase Order. If no time is specified in an order, St. Lawrence may, by reasonable advance notification to Seller, terminate an order in whole or in part if Seller fails to make delivery of the Deliverables within a reasonable time after the date of the Purchase Order.

  1. Delivery and Transportation. Unless otherwise provided in the Purchase Order, Seller shall have title and bear the risk of any loss or damage to any Deliverables purchased hereunder until they are received by St. Lawrence at the destination specified in the Purchase Order, or if no destination is specified, at St. Lawrence’s principal location. Upon such receipt, title shall pass from Seller and Seller’s responsibility for loss or damage shall cease except for loss or damage resulting from Seller’s negligence. Passing of this title upon such receipt shall not constitute acceptance of any Deliverable by St. Lawrence. All Deliverables shall be suitably packaged and prepared for shipment to secure the lowest transportation rates and compliance with standard carrier regulations.
  2. Price, Invoicing, and Payment. The price and terms of payment for the Deliverables shall be as set forth on the face of the Purchase Order.

A proper invoice includes a Purchase Order number or responsible University official and pre-approved departmental budget code. Invoices may be submitted to the St. Lawrence department contact for the order or accountspayable@stlawu.edu.

  4. Changes. St. Lawrence may, at any time, by written notice to Seller, make changes to the Deliverables being purchased, or to the Specifications relating thereto, or to the method of shipment or packing, place of delivery, or delivery schedule. If any such change results in an increase or decrease in the cost of, or time required for, Seller’s performance of the Purchase Order, an equitable adjustment shall be made to the purchase price of the goods or services being purchased. Any claim by Seller for such an adjustment to the purchase price for the applicable Deliverables must be made in writing to St. Lawrence within seven (7) days from the date of Seller’s receipt of the written change order.
  1. Quality. All Deliverables shall conform strictly to all Specifications. Unless otherwise expressly stated, all Deliverables and all workmanship related thereto shall be the best of their respective kind.

Seller shall, upon St. Lawrence’s request, assume and pay for the defense of St. Lawrence, against any such allegation, claim, or charge. St. Lawrence shall promptly notify Seller of any action or proceeding commenced against St. Lawrence with respect thereto. St. Lawrence shall have the right to be represented in such matters by additional counsel of St. Lawrence’s choice, acting at St. Lawrence’s expense. Seller, at its expense, shall also use its best efforts to enable St. Lawrence to continue to use such goods (a) by altering the Deliverables to make them non-infringing, provided such altered non-infringing Deliverables will fulfill the same function and perform the same as prior to such alteration or (b) by obtaining for St. Lawrence non-infringing Deliverables which will fulfill the same function and perform the same as the infringing Deliverables or (c) by obtaining a settlement or license agreement permitting St. Lawrence’s use of any infringing Deliverables.

St. Lawrence reserves the right to repair, alter or modify, at Seller’s cost, items which fail to conform with the terms, conditions, and Specifications of the Purchase Order when the same can be done by St. Lawrence at a lesser cost than by returning the items to Seller.

In such event, all work completed by Seller before the giving of such notice, shall be paid for on a percentage of completion basis, relative to the pricing for the Deliverables set forth in the Purchase Order.

Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless St. Lawrence and its current and former Trustees, Officers, employees, students, agents and volunteers from and against all liability, claims, and demands, on account of injury, loss, damage, or expense, including defense costs, court costs and attorney fees, arising out of or in connection with any act or omission of Seller, its employees, agents, or representatives or the failure of Seller to comply with any obligation, term, condition, or warranty set forth in the Purchase Order or in these terms and conditions.
  1. Entire Agreement. A Purchase Order, including the Specifications and these terms and conditions, constitutes the entire agreement between St. Lawrence and Seller with respect to the Deliverables which are the subject matter thereof, and all prior or contemporaneous understandings or agreements, oral or written, are merged therein. No subsequent changes or modifications of the Purchase Order are binding upon St. Lawrence unless accepted by it in writing. Seller expressly waives all provisions contained in correspondence, forms, or other writings relating to the sale of the Deliverables covered by the Purchase Order which negate, limit, extend, or conflict with the provisions thereof. In the event any term or provision hereof shall be deemed unenforceable, the remaining terms and conditions shall remain in effect to the fullest extent possible.
  1. Financial Responsibility. Seller warrants that it has and will at all times maintain and, upon request by St. Lawrence, show that it has sufficient working capital and financial ability to perform and complete the Purchase Order.
