日本語    

Effective Date: February 1, 2017

Except as otherwise agreed in a written supply agreement signed by both parties, these Terms and Conditions of Purchase (hereinafter, the "Terms and Conditions") will govern each purchase order issued by Panduit Corp. and/or its subsidiaries and affiliates (hereinafter, collectively, "Panduit"). If Supplier is a party to a separately signed written agreement with Panduit governing Panduit’s purchases of Supplier's products and/or services, then such signed agreement will have precedence over these Terms and Conditions to the extent they conflict with these Terms and Conditions. No additions or modifications to these Terms and Conditions will be binding on Panduit unless agreed to in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Panduit. Panduit specifically rejects all pre-printed, non-negotiated terms in Supplier's quotation, proposal, purchase order acknowledgement, standard terms and conditions of sale, or similar documents. Panduit's failure to object to any term or condition in any communication from Supplier will not be construed as an agreement with such terms and conditions. Supplier's acceptance and/or fulfilment of a Panduit purchase order constitutes Supplier's acceptance of these Terms and Conditions. These Terms and Conditions are in effect as of the time of publication and may change at any time.

Supplier represents and warrants that the prices that Supplier charges to Panduit for the products and services shall not be less favorable than prices Supplier charges to Supplier's similarly situated customers purchasing similar products or services in similar quantities, If, at any time, Supplier extends to any other such customer more favorable prices, Supplier shall then offer to sell to Panduit at equivalent prices.
