Terms of purchase

Entire agreement

The purchase order covering the procurement of the hardware, software, software as a service or other cloud computing offerings (the “Cloud Offering”), and/or any services and support, (and all applicable documentation) (collectively, “Products”), together with these terms and conditions, and any exhibits or other documents attached or incorporated by reference (collectively the “Purchase Order” or “PO”), constitutes the entire agreement between En Pointe IT Solutions, LLC (”En Pointe ITS”) and the supplier identified in the PO (“Supplier”). Any additional or different terms or conditions contained in any other documents are considered material alterations to this PO, expressly rejected and will not be binding upon En Pointe ITS. However, if a master agreement exists between Supplier and En Pointe ITS, the terms of the master agreement will prevail over any inconsistent terms of this PO. Supplier’s electronic acceptance or acknowledgement of this PO, or commencement of performance constitutes Supplier’s acceptance of these terms and conditions.

Scope

Supplier grants En Pointe ITS non-exclusive and royalty-free right to market, promote, resell and distribute the Supplier’s Products purchased under this PO to En Pointe ITS customers and end users (“Clients”). En Pointe ITS resells licenses or subscriptions to Supplier’s software and Cloud Offering Products and does not itself take license to any such Product. Supplier and its licensors own and retain all title and intellectual property rights to all software and Cloud Offering Products. Clients’ use of any software and Cloud Offering Product is governed by Supplier’s End User License Agreement, End User Terms or Authorized Use Policy (or other licensing or use documentation) (“EULA”) prevailing at the time of the sale. En Pointe ITS passes through to its Clients all Product warranties and representations made by Supplier. Supplier agrees that all its Product warranties are for the benefit of the Client (or En Pointe ITS as the Client’s agent).

Delivery

Time is of the essence in Supplier’s performance of its obligations under the PO. Supplier will immediately notify En Pointe ITS if Supplier’s performance under the PO is delayed or is likely to be delayed. En Pointe ITS may reschedule, terminate, or cancel any PO prior to shipment by Supplier, with the exception of custom orders where terms will be specifically agreed upon with the Supplier prior to the PO being generated. Supplier is responsible for all shipping and delivery charges including, without limitation; customs, duties, costs, taxes, and insurance, unless otherwise expressly indicated at the time of sale. Supplier is responsible for packaging or providing access to the EULA with all software and Cloud Offering Products. Supplier will include with each delivery of Products a packing list identifying the PO number, the part number for each of the Products (if applicable), a description and the quantity of each of the Products, and the date of shipment. Title and risk of loss for tangible Products shall pass to En Pointe ITS (or where applicable to En Pointe ITS’s Client) upon delivery to En Pointe ITS or for drop shipments, to En Pointe ITS’s Client’s point of delivery.

Price and payment

En Pointe ITS will not be responsible for payment of any invoices for which En Pointe ITS has not placed a purchase order, including, but not limited to, renewal of maintenance support or related services charges. Product pricing is exclusive of state and local use, sales and property taxes. As between En Pointe ITS and Supplier, En Pointe ITS is responsible for all taxes incurred as a result of the purchase of Products from Supplier. Supplier will break out from the price all such taxes and other charges in its invoices. Supplier will invoice En Pointe ITS on the date of shipment. Each invoice must include the PO number. All payments will be in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated on the PO. Payment is deemed to be made on the date of En Pointe’s transmittal.

Returns

En Pointe ITS may return to Supplier for full credit (including all freight charges) any Product found to be defective or returned by a Client pursuant to a Supplier warranty. Supplier will issue a Return Materials Authorization (“RMA”) to En Pointe ITS within 1 business day of Supplier’s receipt of notice of such rejection. Supplier will bear all return shipping charges, including insurance charges, that En Pointe incurs as a result of such returns.

Confidentiality

Supplier agrees to maintain in confidence and safeguard the terms and conditions of this PO, and certain information that En Pointe ITS considers proprietary and/or confidential, including but not limited to: trade secrets, know-how, techniques, business plans/opportunities, personal data, Client data, financial information, products, services, methods or procedures, customer lists, equipment or systems, and other confidential information (“Confidential Information”), in whatever form, furnished by En Pointe ITS orally or in writing. Supplier will use Confidential Information only for the purpose of conducting business in the manner contemplated by this PO.

Governing law

This PO will be construed in accordance with, and all disputes will be governed by, the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. The parties irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in and for Maricopa County, Arizona, and irrevocably waive any claim it may have that any proceedings brought in such courts have been brought in an inconvenient forum.

General

Supplier may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under the PO without En Pointe ITS’s prior written consent, which En Pointe ITS will not unreasonably withhold. En Pointe ITS may, at its option, void any attempted assignment or delegation undertaken without En Pointe ITS’s prior written consent.

If any part of this PO is for any reason found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, all other parts will still remain in effect. Failure of either party to enforce rights under this PO is not a waiver of such rights and will not operate or be construed to waive any other provision of the PO.
