Unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing and provided with respect to a particular sale, all sales are made in accordance with and subject to the following Terms and Conditions of Sale:
1. PRICES.
All prices are firm for 30 calendar days from the date of quotation. After 30 calendar days from the date of
quotation, all quoted prices are subject to change by Seller without prior notice. In any event, all prices are subject to
adjustment on account of any errors or omissions by Seller or for specifications, quantities, materials, installation,
shipment arrangements or other terms and conditions which are not part of the original price quotation. Unless explicitly
stated otherwise, prices are exclusive of all taxes and other charges imposed by federal, state, municipal or other
governmental authority upon production, severance, manufacture, delivery, storage, consumption, sale, use or shipment
of the Products, all of which taxes and other charges will be charged to and paid by Buyer. Buyer is responsible for
obtaining and providing to Seller any certificate of exemption or similar document required to exempt any sale from sales,
use or similar tax liability.
2. DELIVERY AND INSPECTION.
Unless otherwise specified, prices are F.O.B. Seller’s factory, with freight allowed to
Buyer’s job site or other pre-designated location. The time of delivery shall be the approximate time when the Products
are ready for pickup at that location by Buyer or by a carrier for delivery to the Buyer. Seller cannot project delivery on
items quoted until credit is approved and Seller is in receipt of final approved Quotation, and for commercial projects the
Window / Door Submittal Package (i.e. Specification Checklist and Shop Drawings). Thereafter, all ship dates provided
by Seller are approximate dates when the Product is expected to be shipped. No absolute assurances can be given as to
the exact date of shipment and/or time of arrival of Product. Buyer assumes all risks of loss or damage upon Seller’s
delivery of the Products to the initial carrier. Seller has no obligation to deliver Products against any order by Buyer,
unless and until the Quotation, and for commercial projects the Window / Door Submittal Package (i.e. Specification
Checklist and Shop Drawings), have been accepted. In any event, Seller shall not be liable for any delay or failure in
delivery. Buyer shall reimburse Seller for any cost to Seller resulting from delays caused by Buyer. Products on which
delivery is delayed due to any cause within the Buyer’s control, may be placed in storage by Seller at the Buyer’s risk and
for its account. Buyer shall be liable for all costs and expenses incurred by Seller in holding or storing Products by Buyer
or at Buyer’s request. Seller has no obligation to deliver Product to Buyer if Buyer has any amount past due. Buyer shall
make an inspection of Products shipped by Seller immediately upon receipt at Buyer’s destination and failure of Buyer to
give Seller written notice of any claim for damages, shortages or otherwise within 72 hours after such receipt shall
constitute an unqualified acceptance of such Products.
3. CANCELLATION AND RETURNS.
Orders may be modified by Buyer only on Seller’s written consent and will be
considered a new order. If Buyer causes changes to be made, or delays or interrupts the progress of work, or fails to
provide necessary information, Buyer will on demand reimburse Seller for all charges and expenses caused by such
changes or delays including costs of raw materials, supplies, and labor cost for work in progress, plus overhead and
reasonable profit. Orders which have been accepted may be canceled by Buyer only upon: (a) Written notice to Seller
subsequently accepted in writing by Seller and; (b) Payment to Seller of reasonable cancellation charges. Products are
not in any event to be returned to Seller without prior written authorization. Units are not returnable unless damaged
beyond repair prior to delivery or ordered incorrectly by Seller.
4. PAYMENT TERMS.
All orders by Buyer are subject to credit investigation and approval prior to acceptance by Seller.
If credit is approved and extended to Buyer, Seller’s payment terms are net thirty (30) days from date of invoice. Seller
may, in its sole judgment, require such other payment terms as it deems appropriate (including full or partial payment in
advance of shipment, or at the time of order) or revoke any credit previously extended. A deposit is required from Buyer
on any order where RAM’s supplier also requires a deposit. Amounts owed by Buyer shall be paid without holding any
retainage and/or set-off for any amounts, which Buyer may claim are owed by Seller and regardless of any other
controversies which may exist. Payment shall be made at Seller’s office as designated on its invoice or at such other
location as Seller may designate in writing from time to time.
5. PAST DUE ACCOUNTS.
A finance charge of the lesser of 1.5% per month (18% APR) or the highest contract rate
permitted by law will be assessed on all of Buyer’s past due accounts. An invoice is past due if the net amount is not paid
within 30 days from date of invoice. Interest charged on past due invoices will be assessed from the date on which that
invoice was written. The above charges will be billed on the date that the invoice becomes past due on each monthly
period thereafter. Seller reserves the right to pursue any lien options available.
6. WARRANTIES.
Seller warrants that the Products will be free from defects in material and workmanship under the
conditions of normal use and service and after proper installation for a period of ten (10) years from the date of original
delivery for single family residential properties and for a period of two (2) years from the date of delivery for commercial
properties (non-single family residential properties) including schools, churches, hotels, apartments, townhomes and
rental properties. With respect to insulated glass products, the warranties apply to Cardinal IG insulated glass only and

and for a period of one (1) year from the date of delivery for commercial properties. Non-Cardinal IG insulated glass units
and special glazing products have a warranty period of one (1) year from date of delivery. Buyer’s sole and exclusive
remedy under Seller’s warranty is limited to repair or replacement by Seller, at its option, free of charge, F.O.B. Seller’s

workmanship. Seller will not be responsible for any costs incurred in making replacements under this warranty, including
but not limited to costs of removal, installation or reinstallation of any part and/or parts. Seller reserves the right to
discontinue or change any Product as manufactured. In the event warranty remedy is required, and if the part or
component of the window originally installed is not available, Seller may, at its option, substitute a part of equal quality.
Enforceability of this warranty is limited to the original Buyer. The provisions of this warranty shall not apply and no
warranty of whatever kind shall exist with respect (I) to any Product or part thereof which as been subject to misuse,

part thereof that has deteriorated due to normal wear, usage or exposure to saltwater and/or harsh environment, and
Seller shall have no responsibility for the performance of any Product it has sold when the Product has been subjected to
conditions which vary materially from the conditions which such Products are usually tested under pursuant to industry
standards. In addition, Seller is not responsible for damages of whatever nature resulting from improper measuring,
installation or operations beyond design capability, intentional or accidental. Any substitution of parts not manufactured or
authorized by Seller or any modification of or tampering with Seller’s Product shall void the warranty. The provisions of
this warranty are valid only when the Product’s installation instructions are properly followed. All warranties are void and
Seller shall have no liability to Buyer or any other person, if, pursuant to Buyer’s request, either written or oral, (I) any
Product is provided to Buyer in an unglazed or less than final or complete state or (II) a Product is manufactured pursuant
to specifications provided by Buyer or its representatives which are inconsistent or different from industry standards (e.g.,
non-tested sizes or field glazed). Except as otherwise provided by law, Seller shall have no warranty obligations until
goods have been paid for in full. Seller does not assume or authorize other persons to assume on its behalf any other
obligations or liability beyond this warranty. SELLER MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

permitted by law, recover from Buyer all expenses incurred by Seller in the collection of said payment, including
reasonable attorney’s fees.
