Monarch Power Terms and Conditions of Sales and Services

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALES AND SERVICE

1. Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed in a written document signed by an authorized signer of Monarch Power Supply, these Terms and Conditions of Sales and Service (“Terms”) govern the purchase of goods (including, but not limited to, new and used equipment, trucks, engines, attachments, components, technology, and parts) (“Goods”) and services (“Services”) from Monarch Power Supply by any individual or entity that purchases such Goods or Services from Monarch Power Supply (“Client”). The placing of an order with Monarch Power Supply, the completion of an online transaction with Monarch Power Supply, Client’s acceptance of any quote, proposal, or other document issued by Monarch Power Supply with respect to the Goods or Services, or the receipt or acceptance of Goods or Services by Client, constitutes Client’s acceptance of these Terms exactly as written. Monarch Power Supply hereby rejects the terms of any purchase order or other document submitted by Client unless the document is signed by an authorized signer of Monarch Power Supply. The supply of Goods or Services by Monarch Power Supply to Client shall not constitute acceptance by Monarch Power Supply of the terms of any purchase order or other document submitted by Client.
2. Order and Delivery of Goods or Services. All orders for Goods and/or Services are subject to credit approval and final acceptance by Monarch Power Supply (through the issuance of an Order Confirmation) in its sole discretion. After Monarch Power Supply receives Client’s order, Client will receive an email that confirms receipt of Client’s order and includes details relating to Client’s order (the “Order Confirmation”). Final acceptance of Client’s order will not take place unless and until Client has received the Order Confirmation. Client shall have no right to cancel purchase orders for Goods once a purchase order is issued to Monarch Power Supply, nor shall Client have the right to cancel an online purchase once the order is placed. Some parts may be returnable to Monarch Power Supply in accordance with Monarch Power Supply’s then current parts return policy (https://www.monarchpowersupply.com/legal-notices/, Parts Return Policy link). Client acknowledges that estimated delivery dates for Goods are estimates only; actual delivery dates depend on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the production schedules of manufacturers. Monarch Power Supply will use commercially reasonable efforts to meet estimated delivery dates and shall keep Client advised of the status of its delivery, but Monarch Power Supply shall have no liability for any loss associated with delay in the delivery of Goods. In addition, Monarch Power Supply shall have no liability for any delay in performance of Services or delivery of Goods caused by any circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, but not limited to, delays caused by acts of God, acts of war or terrorism, fire or other casualty, storms or adverse weather, epidemics, strikes, labor shortages or disturbances, shortages of materials, restraints or delays affecting carriers, manufacturer delays, theft or vandalism, transport and handling accidents, or revisions to laws, regulations, or government requirements.
3. Pricing. Unless otherwise specified by Monarch Power Supply, the price for new parts shall be Monarch Power Supply’s list price for such parts on the date the parts are ordered as shown on the website; the price for a new engine shall be Monarch Power Supply’s list price for such engine on the date the engine ships from the factory; and the labor rates for Services shall be Monarch Power Supply’s standard labor rates for the applicable type of Service in effect at the time the Services are performed. Pricing for future orders is subject to change without notice. Client will promptly pay the Monarch Power Supply any taxes that Monarch Power Supply is required to collect with respect to the purchase of Goods and/or Services, including, but not limited to, value added, personal property, sales, use and similar taxes (“Taxes”). For any Taxes from which Client claims exemption, Client shall provide Monarch Power Supply with properly completed exemption certificates and any documentation needed to validate the exemption prior to the purchase of the applicable Goods and/or Services. If Client fails to provide an appropriate exemption certificate and support documentation, as determined by Monarch Power Supply, Client will remain liable for all such Taxes and will indemnify Monarch Power Supply for any liability related to the same. Title to purchased Goods shall pass to Client upon payment in full for the Goods. Risk of loss for purchased Goods is FOB Monarch Power Supply’s site, unless purchased Goods are shipped to Client directly from the manufacturer, in which case risk of loss is FOB factory. Any claims for shortages, damages, or delays in shipping must be made by Client directly to the carrier.
4. Payment Terms. For Client with an open credit account with Monarch Power Supply who are purchasing pursuant to such open credit account, engine sales payments are due Net 30 (Unless otherwise specified by Monarch). For Clients who do not have an open credit account with Monarch Power Supply, payment is due either in advance or upon delivery of Goods or completion of Services. For Clients who are purchasing Goods or Services online, payment may be made by credit card at the time of purchase or as otherwise specified by Monarch Power Supply from time to time. Monarch Power Supply may, in its sole discretion, at any time: (a) revoke credit; (b) modify terms and conditions of credit; (c) require payment in advance; and/or (d) withhold Goods, completed Services, or scheduled Services until receipt of payment. If Client fails to pay for Goods and/or Services as and when due, Client shall pay a late charge of 1.5% of the invoice balance each month until charges are paid in full, and Client shall pay Monarch Power Supply all reasonable attorneys’ fees and collection costs incurred by Monarch Power Supply. In addition to any other right of set-off or recoupment Monarch Power Supply has under applicable law, Client agrees that, with respect to any amounts due from Client or Client’s affiliates to Monarch Power Supply or Monarch Power Supply’s affiliates, Monarch Power Supply and its affiliates may set-off such amounts against any amounts owing to Client or Client’s affiliates. If Client requests customization of equipment, Client agrees to pay all parts and labor costs Monarch Power Supply incurs in customizing the engine, regardless of whether Client completes the purchase of the customized engine. Client must pick up its equipment from Monarch Power Supply’s facility within two (2) business days after notification from Monarch Power Supply of completion of Services. If Client’s equipment is not picked up within two (2) business days after such notification, Client will be liable for storage charges of up to $300.00 per day from the date of completion of Services until Client’s equipment is picked up. To the extent permitted by applicable law, including, but not limited to California Civil Code § 3052, Monarch Power Supply may sell Client’s equipment if such equipment remains in Client’s possession after thirty (30) days and any amounts owed remain unpaid.
5. Warranties.
   a. New Goods. If Client is purchasing new Goods from Monarch Power Supply, Client acknowledges that (i) Monarch Power Supply is not the manufacturer of the Goods; (ii) if the Goods include a manufacturer’s warranty, Monarch Power Supply will pass through to Client the manufacturer’s warranty to the extent permitted by the terms of such warranty; and (iii) the manufacturer’s warranty will be subject to all conditions, exclusions, and exclusive remedies set forth therein.

If Monarch Power Supply performs a repair pursuant to its service warranty, the warranty period remains ninety (90) days from completion of the original Services; the ninety (90) day service warranty period does not start over with the repair. If the replacement parts used by Monarch Power Supply in connection with the provision of Services include a manufacturer’s warranty, Monarch Power Supply will pass such warranty through to Client to the extent permitted by the terms of the manufacturer’s warranty.

   d. WARRANTY DISCLAIMER. Except for the express warranties set forth in this Section 5, Monarch Power Supply makes no warranty, express or implied, oral or written, with respect to any Goods or Services, including, but not limited to, any warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or title, whether arising by law, course of dealing, usage or trade, or otherwise. To the maximum extent permitted by law, all such warranties are hereby disclaimed by Monarch Power Supply and waived by Client.
6. Indemnification. Each party agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the other party for, from, and against any third party claims related to the Goods or Services to the extent such third party claims (including, but not limited to, claims related to the death or injury of any person(s) or damage to or destruction of any real or personal property) are caused by the indemnifying party’s grossly negligent or more culpable acts or omissions, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 7 below.
7. Liability Limitation: In no event shall either party be liable, whether based in contract, warranty, indemnity, tort, strict liability, or any other theory of law or equity, for any special, incidental, indirect, punitive, exemplary or consequential damages, including, but not limited to, lost profits, loss of use of property or equipment, downtime, loss of third-party contracts, or lost production, regardless of whether or not such party was advised of the possibility of such damages. In addition, Monarch Power Supply’s maximum aggregate liability (whether in contract, warranty, indemnity, tort, strict liability, or any other theory of law or equity) for damages or loss, howsoever arising or caused, shall in no event exceed the amount Client paid to Monarch Power Supply for the Goods or Services to which the liability relates. The parties recognize that the pricing associated with Goods and Services reflects this allocation of risk and is the basis of the bargain between the parties. The foregoing limitations shall be valid and enforceable, notwithstanding any alleged failure of essential purpose of the limited remedies set forth herein.
