IDEX Standard Sales Terms and Conditions

THESE SALES TERMS AND CONDITIONS (the “Terms”) apply to all sales of products (“Products”) by IDEX Biometrics ASA, a company duly organized and existing under the laws of the country of Norway, and maintaining its principal place of business at Dronning Eufemias gate 16, NO-0191 Oslo, Norway ( “IDEX”) to the entity purchasing Products (“Buyer”), unless authorized representatives of both IDEX and Buyer have executed and delivered to each other a separate written agreement governing the sale of Products by IDEX to Buyer.

1. APPLICABILITY AND SCOPE

The Terms shall apply to any written quotation of IDEX which is accepted by Buyer, or any written order of Buyer which is accepted by IDEX, in each case to the extent signed by both parties (each an “Order”). These Terms are subject to the Order and any special conditions set out therein, which may deviate from or supplement these Terms explicitly.

IDEX objects to any additional or different terms proposed by Buyer, and such terms will not apply unless accepted and signed in writing by IDEX’s authorized representative.

2. SALE AND DELIVERY

Deliveries shall take place according to the delivery schedule agreed in an Order.

All Products shall be delivered EX-WORKS point of manufacture according to the current applicable Incoterms, if not otherwise as agreed in the Order, at the address as agreed in the Order. Buyer shall provide IDEX with all information necessary for IDEX to ship the Products. In the absence of specific written instructions from Buyer, IDEX will select the carrier, but such carrier will not be the agent of IDEX. IDEX will pack all Products shipped in accordance with standard commercial practices.

If IDEX becomes aware of a delay or possible delay, Buyer shall be notified promptly. The delivery schedule shall be revised accordingly.

Buyer shall notify IDEX within 10 days after delivery of any visible defects, quantity shortages or incorrect product shipments. Failure to so notify IDEX within 10 days will be deemed a waiver of the right to return Products based on visible defects, quantity shortages or incorrect product shipments. Title and risk of loss shall pass to Buyer at the time of delivery in accordance with the applicable delivery terms.

3. CANCELLATION

IDEX reserves the right to cancel any placed Orders or to refuse or delay shipment thereof, if (a) Buyer fails to make any payment agreed to by IDEX and Buyer; (b) Buyer fails to meet reasonable credit or financial requirements established by IDEX, including any limitations on allowable credit; or (c) Buyer fails to comply with the terms and conditions of these Terms. No such cancellation, refusal or delay will be deemed a termination (unless IDEX so advises Buyer) or breach of these Terms by IDEX.

IDEX reserves the right to discontinue the manufacture, sale or supply of Products at any time. If, however, at any time during the term of these Terms, Buyer purchases certain Products from IDEX on a regular basis, and such Products are to be discontinued (“Discontinued Products”), IDEX shall give Buyer prior written notice of such discontinuance and accept last-time-buy orders for such Discontinued Products in accordance with IDEX’s last-time-buy procedure in place at the time of such notice.

4. PRICING AND PAYMENT TERMS

The prices are stated in the relevant Order.

Prices are subject to change on 30 (thirty) days’ notice to Buyer. All prices are exclusive of any sales tax, excise tax, value added tax, import duty or other tax applicable to the sale of any product. Such taxes, when applicable, shall be paid by Buyer unless Buyer provides a proper tax exemption certificate.

Buyer shall not set off against IDEX’s invoices any amounts that Buyer claims are due to it. Buyer will bring any claims or causes of action it may have in a separate action and waives all rights it may have to set off or withhold payment for Products delivered by IDEX.

IDEX shall issue invoices for supply of Products on delivery. All invoices shall be payable within 30 (thirty) days of issue. Buyer pays the banking fees to its bank and intermediary banks, while IDEX pays the banking fees to its bank. If payments by Buyer are more than 30 (thirty) days overdue, IDEX is entitled to interest at a rate of 8.5 (eight point five) per cent per annum or, if less, the maximum amount allowed by applicable law, on the overdue balance, by issue from time to time of a separate invoice. In no event shall the amount of interest (or any late charge if treated as interest) paid or agreed to be paid by Buyer under the Terms exceed the highest lawful rate. If such interest (or late charge) is treated as involving payment in excess of that permitted, then the obligations of Buyer shall be reduced to the limits so permitted by law and if, from any circumstance, IDEX should ever receive any such excess, such sum shall not be deemed a payment of interest but shall instead be applied to reduce the principal obligations of Buyer to IDEX.

In the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of Buyer, or in the event any proceeding is brought by or against Buyer under bankruptcy or insolvency laws, IDEX shall be entitled to cancel any Order then outstanding and Buyer shall reimburse IDEX for any associated cancellation charges and damages.
