PAYMENT POLICY

 

1.0 PURPOSE AND APPLICABILITY

1.1 Generally. This Payment Policy (“Policy”) governs payment for goods (“Goods”) or services (“Services”) provided by Centranz, Inc., a Missouri corporation or Centranz Parts and Manufacturing Company, a Missouri corporation (each, “Centranz”) to you, the purchaser of such goods or services (“Customer” or “you” and together with Centranz, the “Parties” and each, a “Party”). This Policy shall be binding on you, the Customer, any time you purchase Goods or Services. Therefore, you should read this Policy carefully. This Policy is subject, in all legal respects, to [Centranz’s General Terms and Conditions for the Sale of Goods and Services], located at centranz.com (the “Terms”). Capitalized terms used within this Policy but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Terms.

1.2 Applicability. This Policy prevails over any Customer payment policy even if Customer has submitted its purchase order or such terms. Fulfillment of Customer’s order does not constitute acceptance of any Customer terms or conditions and does not modify or amend this Policy.

2.0 GENERAL PROVISIONS

2.1 Invoicing Procedure. For each sale of Goods or Services Centranz will prepare and deliver an invoice to Customer. The invoice will include such information as Centranz deems reasonably necessary to identify the Goods and/or Services, including quantity, description, price, payment terms, applicable taxes, and freight. Centranz will deliver the invoice to Customer within a reasonable time after Customer has executed a Confirmation of Sale or, at the discretion of Centranz, within a reasonable time after Customer has given Centranz written or oral confirmation of the sale.

2.2 Payment. Customer shall pay all invoiced amounts to Centranz in advance of Centranz shipping Goods or providing Services unless and only if other payment terms have been accepted by Centranz in writing. Customer shall make all payments to Centranz by wire transfer, certified check, or by credit card (subject to Section 3.1). All payments shall be made in immediately available funds of U.S. Dollars.

2.3 Late Payments. If Customer does not pay any amount when due, then Customer shall pay interest on all such past-due amounts at a rate equal to the lesser of (a) 1.5% per month; or (b) the highest monthly rate permissible under applicable law, in each case calculated daily and compounded monthly. Customer shall promptly reimburse and indemnify Centranz for all costs and expenses incurred in collecting any late payments, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and collection costs. In addition to all other remedies available to Centranz by law, contract, or equity (which Centranz does not waive by the exercise of any rights hereunder and expressly reserves), Centranz shall be entitled to suspend the delivery of any Goods or performance of any Services if Customer fails to pay any amounts when due and such failure continues for twenty (20) days following Centranz’s written notice thereof.

2.4 Set-off not Permitted. Customer shall not withhold payment of any amounts due and payable by reason of any set-off, offset, or dispute with Centranz, whether relating to Centranz’s breach, bankruptcy, or otherwise.
