These terms of sale (“Terms of Sale”) apply to all product and/or service (“Product”) purchases made by you (“Customer”). The term “Customer” as used herein shall mean any entity purchasing products from Seller, including but not limited to, any Customer Facilities or locations. Customer agrees to pay for all purchases of Products, fees, and other charges incurred by Customer or any authorized agent on behalf of Customer, including purchases shipped and/or billed to a third-party agent on behalf of Customer. Customer cannot modify these Terms of Sale without our (Bluecana LLC, herein “Seller”) written consent and these Terms of Sale supersede the terms and conditions on any purchase order or other business form. Prior courses of dealing between us will have no effect on these Terms of Sale and would be inadmissible to explain, modify, or contradict these Terms of Sale. The term “Facility” means any facility with respect to which Customer exercises control over the selection of wholesale medical-surgical distributor, whether by ownership, contract or otherwise. The term “Supplier” as used in these Terms of Sale means a manufacturer, vendor, or other supplier of a Product that is purchased by Seller for distribution.
1. Invoice, Payment, and Finance
1.1 Standard Credit and Payment Terms. All invoiced amounts are due within thirty (30) days of the date of the invoice, unless stated otherwise on the invoice. If any of the specified payment term due dates fall on a weekend day or holiday, payment is due and payable on the preceding business day. Any invoiced amount remaining unpaid after the due date will be “Past Due.” Past Due balances are subject to service or finance charges at the highest rate permitted by law, or one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month, whichever is higher. Any interest charged and collected in excess of applicable state law will be returned. Any payment made after the due date shall result in the loss of any prompt cash payment discount specified on the related invoice or statement and Customer shall pay the gross amount plus any applicable service or finance charges. If Customer fails to pay any or all of the invoiced amount when due or if Customer’s credit or financial status erodes or otherwise renders Seller insecure, Seller may, in its sole discretion: (i) immediately suspend Seller’s performance or cancel all or any part of an order hereunder, (ii) change any payment term to a payment term determined by Seller (including imposing the requirement of cash payment upon delivery); (iii) pay any incentives, rebates, fees, or other discount arrangements net of (a) any amounts due hereunder from Customer, or (b) unauthorized deductions and service charges (iv) terminate and/or declare Customer ineligible for any incentives, rebates, fees, or other discount arrangements; (v) declare immediately due and payable all other amounts invoiced by Seller to Customer regardless of when such payments would otherwise be due from Customer, and/or (vi) increase the prices for Products and/or services. A credit program, if any, offered by Seller is intended for commercial purposes only, and not as a ‘consumer’ credit program used primarily for personal, family or household purposes.
1.2 Customer agrees to render payment in full to Seller on the applicable due date without making any deductions or adjustments to such payment obligation; or seeking to condition such remittance on any demand for or receipt of proofs of delivery.
1.3 In the event Customer files or is involved in any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar case or proceeding, Seller shall apply any amounts owed by Seller to Customer, first to any pre-bankruptcy, non 11 U.S.C. § 503(b)(9) claims, and then to the 11 U.S.C. § 503(b)(9) claims.
1.4 Seller may set off any amount owing at any time from Customer (and with respect to any Customer account) to Seller (including its subsidiaries and affiliates) against any amount payable at any time by Seller to Customer, whether arising under these Terms of Sale or otherwise.
1.5 Any account opened in favor of Customer is subject to credit approval by Seller.

Seller is authorized to retain information obtained as part of the application process whether or not the requested account and/or credit is granted. Customer hereby unconditionally guarantees the performance of all obligations of any of its facilities under these Terms of Sale, including the prompt payment of the purchase price and any applicable service or finance charges and other charges for all Products shipped to the facilities, and agrees to pay any outstanding past due amounts to Seller immediately upon demand by Seller.
1.7 Customer agrees to pay all reasonable attorney fees and expenses or cost incurred by Seller in enforcing its rights to collect amounts due from Customer.
1.8 Taxes. All amounts payable under these Terms of Sale are exclusive of sales, use, value-added, gross receipts, and other transaction taxes (“Transaction Taxes”). Customer will promptly pay and indemnify Seller against all such Transaction Taxes legally imposed upon and payable by Customer, unless Customer provides Seller satisfactory evidence of a valid tax exemption within applicable statutory requirements. Seller shall be fully responsible for and not entitled to any reimbursement for any taxes imposed upon Seller’s net income, unemployment insurance or social insurance or pensions, maintained pursuant to any laws, ordinances, codes or regulations.
1.9 Federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act. The Federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act prohibits creditors from discriminating due to race, color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status, age; or because all or part of the Customer’s income is from any public assistance program; or the Customer, in good faith, exercises any right under the Consumer Credit Protection Act. The Federal Trade Commission, Equal Credit Opportunity, Washington, DC 20580 administers compliance with this law. Customer represents and warrants that all Customer information included on its invoice is complete and correct. Customer agrees that Seller will be relying on such information and will notify Seller of any material changes to such information.
2. Discrepancies. Seller will have no obligation to resolve and Customer will hold Seller harmless and waive any rights to any discrepancy or to issue any credit or refund, or to replace any goods if such claim is not made within the applicable period below. All requests for proof of delivery must be made within sixty (60) days of Seller’s invoice date.
2.1 Shipment Discrepancies. Any discrepancy between any order placed by Customer and Seller’s corresponding shipment(s) must be reported to Seller for resolution within ten (10) days of Seller’s invoice date.
2.2 Price or Payment Discrepancies. Any price or payment discrepancies or any claims for reimbursement must be reported to Seller for resolution before the applicable invoice is due.
3. Non-Disposable Products. Non-disposable Products, such as furniture and equipment, sold by Seller may be refurbished or reconditioned.

For orders less than Seller’s minimum order requirement, Seller may add to the invoice a handling charge determined by Seller and disclosed to Customer prior to or at the time of order. A fuel surcharge, if applicable, may be added to the invoice. Detailed information on the fuel surcharge can be obtained by request. Seller has the right to ship Products at all times via its own vehicle or a carrier selected by Seller. For delivery directly to an end-user patient/consumer’s place of residence made at the direction of Customer (“Patient Home Delivery”), in addition to Patient Home Delivery shipping and handling fees, Seller may charge Customer additional surcharges, including, but not limited to, signature fees, address or billing information correction fees, delivery area surcharges, and other accessorial fees.
5. Title and Risk of Loss. For delivery without any patient/consumer designation or segregation ( e.g., bulk delivery), title and risk of loss for the Products will pass to Customer at the time the Products reach their designated destination, except that drop shipments directly from a Supplier will be shipped in accordance with the Supplier’s shipping policies. For Patient Home Delivery, ownership of the Products will transfer to Customer at the time Customer places the Product order with Seller but risk of loss will remain with Seller until the Products reach their designated destination.
6. Third-Party Logistics Provider Services. If Seller is providing third-party logistics provider services to Customer or otherwise providing direct patient/consumer shipment services for Customer, Customer represents and warrants that (i) it has all required permits, licenses and prescriptions/physician orders necessary to dispense or administer Products to its patients, including, without limitation, all required licenses to dispense or administer the Products into the states in which Customer dispenses, administers or sells Products and (ii) it has verified that all recipients of the Products are appropriately registered or otherwise authorized to receive delivery of the Products.

8. AED Devices. Customer acknowledges that Customer may purchase automated external defibrillator (“AED”) devices from Seller; however, AED compliance and/or training programs, if any, will only be offered and performed by a third party, not Seller.
9. Security Interest. Customer hereby grants to Bluecana LLC, for itself and as collateral agent for each of its affiliates, including but not limited to, Bluecana LLC. (“Bluecana”), a security interest in and lien on all of Customer’s right, title, and interest in and to any inventory and/or equipment purchased from Seller and all products and proceeds thereof, as security for Customer’s payment obligations hereunder. Customer hereby authorizes Bluecana to file any UCC financing statement or amendment that Bluecana considers necessary to perfect or protect such security interest. If Customer defaults under these Terms of Sale or under any payment obligations to Bluecana and its affiliates, Seller has all rights and remedies under applicable law for enforcement of its security interest, which may include the right to self-help repossession of such equipment.
10. Chargebacks. In consideration of Seller allowing Customer to purchase Products at discounted prices, Customer agrees that Seller will be paid the difference between Seller’s acquisition cost and the discounted cost of the Product from the applicable Supplier (“Chargeback(s)”). In the event Seller is denied any Chargeback from a Supplier as a result of Customer providing incomplete, inaccurate, or incorrect information to Seller or Supplier, Customer will be liable to Seller for such Chargeback amount. In the event Supplier: (i) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, files a petition in bankruptcy, is adjudicated insolvent or bankrupt, or if a receiver or trustee is appointed with respect to a substantial part of Supplier’s property or a proceeding is commenced against it which will substantially impair its ability to pay on Chargebacks; or (ii) otherwise defaults in the payment of Chargebacks to Seller, Customer will be invoiced and become liable for the unpaid Chargebacks allocable to its purchases from Supplier.
11. Force Majeure. Except for the obligation to pay money, a party will not be liable to the other party for any failure or delay caused by a Force Majeure Event, whether or not such matters were foreseeable, and such failure or delay will not constitute a material breach of these Terms of Sale. “Force Majeure Event” means any cause beyond the reasonable control of a party including but not limited to natural disasters or acts of God; destruction of production facilities; acts of war; terrorism; riots; embargoes; acts of civil or military authorities; voluntary or involuntary compliance with any regulation, law or order of any government; labor disputes or stoppages; denial of or delays in processing of export license applications; transportation delays; epidemics, pandemics or outbreak of communicable disease; quarantines; national or regional emergencies; unavailability of materials, energy or machinery; or internet system encountering hacker’s invasion. Furthermore, Seller is not a manufacturer of items and therefore is not able to prevent and is not liable for industry-standard supply chain issues such as manufacturer backorders, discontinuations, or allocations due to high demand or short supply.
12. Product Recommendations. Seller may make available to Customer certain recommendations concerning products that are comparable, functionally equivalent, clinically equivalent, or equivalent to other products used or identified by Customer (“Equivalency Recommendations”).
Customer agrees and stipulates that, in making any Equivalency Recommendation, Seller is relying solely on the independent skill, knowledge and judgment of its Suppliers or others in the industry and is not independently providing medical product information upon which Customer can rely in order to make its product selection decision. Customer agrees and stipulates that in making product decisions Customer is relying on its independent professional judgment. Customer hereby agrees to waive, release, indemnify and hold Seller and its affiliates harmless from any claim arising from an Equivalency Recommendation. Customer agrees and stipulates that it is a sophisticated user of medical products and it agrees and stipulates that it is a learned intermediary between Seller and the end user/patient.
THESE EQUIVALENCY RECOMMENDATIONS MAY BE MADE VERBALLY, IN WRITING OR VIA A DATABASE. THE EQUIVALENCY RECOMMENDATIONS ARE RECOMMENDATIONS ONLY AND ARE NOT REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES CONCERNING ANY PRODUCT PERFORMANCE OR EQUIVALENCY AND ANY SUCH REPRESENTATIONS OF WARRANTY ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED. THESE EQUIVALENCY RECOMMENDATIONS ARE BASED UPON MATERIALS SUPPLIED BY SELLER’S SUPPLIER AND OTHER INDUSTRY–AVAILABLE INFORMATION.
The Switch & Save program is an automated tool that shows Customer’s savings available by switching from products in Customer’s current purchasing history to alternative products from the Customer’s current purchasing history. Alternative products are not necessarily the lowest priced items available.

CUSTOMER WILL LOOK TO THE MANUFACTURER OF PRODUCTS AND THE PROVIDER OF SERVICES (IF OTHER THAN SELLER) FOR ANY WARRANTY THEREON. NO AGENT, EMPLOYEE, OR REPRESENTATIVE OF SELLER HAS ANY AUTHORITY TO MAKE ANY AFFIRMATION, REPRESENTATION, OR WARRANTY CONCERNING PRODUCTS NOT SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS OF SALE.
CUSTOMER SHALL NOT HOLD SELLER LIABLE FOR ANY DEFECT IN PRODUCTS OR DEFECT IN SERVICES NOT PROVIDED BY SELLER, REGARDLESS OF KIND. CUSTOMER AGREES TO FILE SOLELY WITH THE MANUFACTURER OF THE PRODUCTS OR PROVIDER OF SERVICES (IF OTHER THAN SELLER) ANY CLAIM OR LAWSUIT ALLEGING LOSS, INJURY, DAMAGE, OR DEATH ARISING OUT OF OR CAUSED BY THE USE, SALE, DISTRIBUTION, OR POSSESSION OF PRODUCTS OR SERVICES.
14. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT WILL SELLER BE LIABLE IN CONNECTION WITH, OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF SALE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER BASED ON BREACH OF CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT, PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS) FROM ANY CAUSE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES RESULTING FROM ANY UNAVAILABILITY OF, DEFECT IN, OR MISSHIPMENT OF PRODUCTS OR THE PROVISION OF SERVICES, AND WHETHER OR NOT SELLER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

In the event Customer fails to timely purchase such Customer-Specific Inventory as described above, Seller may, but is not required to, dispose of such Customer-Specific Inventory in a manner of its choosing and invoice Customer for any and all fees or costs incurred for such disposal.
