16. UNDERSTANDING OF PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS AND RISKS

Buyer agrees to obtain a full understanding of the risks and hazards associated with the use, handling, and transportation of the products sold hereunder prior to using, handling, transporting or distributing these products. Seller provides information to its customers about the hazards presented by magnetic material. This information should not be construed as complete and exhaustive information on the hazards presented by magnetic materials. Buyer is responsible for checking the accuracy, completeness, currency and/or suitability of all information themselves. Seller does not represent, guarantee or warranty the accuracy, completeness, currency, or suitability of hazard information it presents to buyers. Seller specifically disclaims any and all liability for any claims or damages that may result from providing this information. RARE-EARTH MAGNETS HAVE INHERENT HIGH MAGNETIC FIELD STRENGTH. THIS HIGH FIELD STRENGTH IN CERTAIN APPLICATIONS CAN BE A HAZARD TO HEALTH, LIFE AND PROPERTY. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THIS AND IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING THE APPROPRIATE USE OF THESE MAGNETIC PRODUCTS IN THEIR APPLICATION. RARE-EARTH MAGNETS SHOULD NOT BE INGESTED OR INHALED. IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION IS REQUIRED IF MAGNETS ARE INGESTED OR INHALED. BUYER ACKNOWLEDGES THIS AND IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT CHILDREN WILL NOT HANDLE OR HAVE ACCESS TO THE MAGNETS SOLD BY SELLER. Rare-earth magnets sold by Seller are primarily composed of neodymium, dysprosium, samarium, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper and boron. The chemical, physical and toxicological properties of neodymium, samarium and dysprosium have not been thoroughly investigated and recorded. Buyer acknowledges this and is solely responsible for determining the appropriate use of these magnetic products in their application. The current Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) should be consulted by Buyer to obtain current procedures for handling or working with these substances in a safe manner. Neodymium-iron-boron rare-earth magnets are susceptible to oxidation. These magnets are plated to reduce their oxidation susceptibility but will oxidize in many environments. Most rare earth elements (neodymium, dysprosium, samarium, etc.) absorb hydrogen into their material structure resulting in expansion and cracking of the material which is referred to as decrepitation. Therefore, rare-earth magnets are not recommended where exposure to hydrogen is likely. Buyer acknowledges this and is solely responsible for determining if these magnets are fit for a particular environment. Pull force information provided to the buyer are estimates based on ideal conditions and should not be used in application design. Variations in iron content, thickness, and surface finish and condition will all reduce these ratings. Buyer acknowledges this and is solely responsible for determining the holding force of the magnets purchased for their particular application.

17. RETURNS

In Seller's sole discretion, credit may be granted with respect to returned products depending on the reason for the return and the condition of the product. Any returned products must be shipped to Seller, freight prepaid, at Buyer's risk.

18. INDEMNIFICATION

Buyer agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Seller (and its employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, suppliers and agents) from and against any and all judgments, liabilities, damages, losses, expenses and costs (including, but not limited to, court costs and attorneys' fees) incurred or suffered by Seller, which relate to or arise out of (a) Buyer's use, handling, transportation, sale or distribution/sale of the products sold hereunder; (b) Buyer's breach of any representation, warranty or obligation hereunder; and/or (c) the infringement or violation of any third party's intellectual property or other rights arising out of or in connection with Seller's use of specifications, materials or other items provided to Seller by Buyer.

19. WAIVER

Seller shall not be deemed to have waived any provision hereof, or any breach by Buyer of any provision hereof, unless such waiver is specifically set forth in writing and executed by an authorized officer of Seller. No waiver by Seller of any provision hereof or any breach by Buyer hereunder shall constitute a waiver of such provision on any other occasion or a waiver of any other breach by the Buyer.

20. FORCE MAJEURE

In no event shall Seller have any liability to Buyer for any delayed performance or nonperformance by Seller which results, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, from any cause beyond the reasonable control of Seller. Such causes shall include (but shall not be limited to) acts of God, wars, riots, civil disturbances, strikes, labor disputes, fires, storms, floods, earthquakes, natural disasters, inability to obtain or use raw or component material or parts, labor, equipments, facilities, or transportation, and acts of any government or agency thereof. Buyer's order will be deemed suspended for so long as any such cause prevents or delays Seller's performance. In the event of any such suspension, Seller shall have the right, at its option, upon notice to Buyer, (a) to terminate its obligation to sell any or all of the products ordered hereunder or (b) to resume performance as soon as practicable after the suspension, and reschedule delivery of the products ordered hereunder to one or more deferred dates to be mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Seller, subject to Buyer's payment of any additional charge for any increase in Seller's direct or indirect costs occasioned by the suspension of its performance.
