or to require a cash payment before shipment is made. New accounts are required to provide a signed
credit application with credit references. Terms and open account status are subject to change for failure
to pay outstanding accounts on a timely basis or if customer’s financial strength is impaired. Late invoices
are subject to finance charges equal to 1.5% of the account balance per month (or the highest amount
allowable by law). Assessed finance charges are considered unpaid invoices.

or similar taxes applicable to the sale, purchase, shipment or use of goods sold to the customer, duties
