full specifications identifying the material being ordered have been
provided to us.
- A buyer may not, except with our written consent, cancel any order for
material which we have special ordered from the mill.
- We will, at a buyer?s request, provide our best estimate of the
anticipated time of delivery of any order, but we will have no liability
for any non-timely delivery.

loss to the material shall pass to the buyer upon delivery at the buyer?s

note any shortage or damage on both buyer?s copy and the carrier?s copy of
the carrier?s receipt, freight bill or delivery memo, and cause both
copies to be signed by the carrier?s driver or representative. If buyer
does not do so, we
will be responsible for any shortage or damage only (i) in the case of a
carrier that is owned or operated by or affiliated with us, if we
establish to our reasonable satisfaction that there was in fact a shortage
in the delivery or that the damage occurred prior to receipt of the
material by buyer, as applicable, or (ii) in the case of any carrier that
is not owned or operated by or affiliated with us, if we are able to
recover for the shortage or damage from such carrier.

advice given or the results obtained, all such advice being given and
accepted at buyer?s risk.
- WARRANTY
- We warrant that all material, at the time of shipment by us, shall conform

such non-conformity results from damage, misuse, abrasion,corrosion,
negligence, accident, tampering, faulty installation, improper storage,
inadequate maintenance, or any other cause affecting the material after
the shipment of the material.
- We disclaim all other warranties with respect to material sold or services
rendered, whether express or implied, including the warranties of
merchantability and fitness of the material or services for any particular
purpose. By placing an order with us, a buyer affirms that the buyer has
not relied upon the skill or judgment of us or any of our agents,
employees or representatives to select or furnish material for any
particular purpose, and the sale is made without any warranty by us that
the material is suitable for any particular purpose.

replace defective material or refund the purchase price within the time
specified.

than one year after the cause of action accrues.
- ACCEPTANCE
- Our sales are made pursuant to our terms and conditions. If we receive a
purchase order or other document from a buyer that limits acceptance to
its terms or states that our acknowledgement, shipping of material,
commencing work, or other act or failure to act constitutes acceptance of
an offer on the terms of the purchase order or other document, no
responding document sent by us shall be a definite and seasonable
expression of acceptance of the buyer?s offer. In that event, our
responding documents are intended as a counteroffer, accepted when the
buyer accepts shipment of any of the material described. We hereby object
to any term contained in a buyer?s purchase order or other document if the
term is different from or in addition to the terms herein.
