TI TERMS OF SALE

1. Applicability, Offer and Acceptance.?

The terms in this contract are the sole terms governing TI’s sale or provision of Items to Buyer. TI’s acceptance of Buyer’s offer is expressly conditioned upon Buyer’s acceptance of these terms and limited to these terms.? TI hereby objects to and rejects any additional or different term proposed by Buyer, including those contained in Buyer’s purchase order, unless TI expressly agrees to such terms in writing. Buyer accepts and agrees to these terms as well as TI's?Terms of Use,?Privacy Policy?and?Cookie Policy?and any associated terms, notices or disclaimers that accompany Items or related materials.

Buyer may offer to buy Items and, in the case of Evaluation Items, may offer to buy and/or take delivery, under these terms by submitting an order to TI. TI may accept or reject any order at TI’s sole discretion.

TI’s order confirmation is for informational purposes only and does not constitute TI’s acceptance of Buyer’s order or confirmation of an offer to sell and/or deliver an Item. Acceptance takes place only when TI either (i) sends a confirmation that the Item has shipped or (ii) provides a documented ESD. Such acceptance only relates to those Items for which shipment have been confirmed or that TI has identified in an express confirmation of acceptance.

TI may, at any time prior to accepting Buyer’s offer, decline, reject, cancel, or limit Buyer’s order for any reason, including, without limitation: if an Item is not available; if TI determines an Item has an issue requiring repair; in the event of errors in item or pricing information; or if TI (or its authorized business partners) identify issues relating to credit and fraud avoidance. Should this occur, Buyer will be informed and any payments Buyer has made with respect to such Items will be refunded to Buyer, provided that Buyer provides to TI such information as may be required to effectuate such refund unless prohibited by law.

Items are for commercial use only, e.g. manufacturing, and not intended for personal or consumer use. ??Buyer confirms that Items are not purchased for personal use and that Buyer is not a “consumer” as defined by applicable consumer protection laws and regulations.? Buyer authorizes TI to declare and provide a declaration to any governmental authority on behalf of the Buyer stating the aforesaid purpose of the Items ordered by the Buyer.

Capitalized words have the meaning set forth in the Defined Terms located at the end of this contract.

2. Prices; Additional Fees; Invoices.

Where applicable, TI communicates pricing to customers in various ways (such as quotes) and confirms transaction prices with its order confirmations or acknowledgements. Prior to shipment, TI’s price for Items may change due to adjustments in specifications, quantities, shipment arrangements, requested delivery dates, currency exchange rates, changes to economic conditions, or any other changes to conditions. The final price in effect on the date of shipment as stated in TI’s invoice applies. Unless otherwise agreed in writing between TI and Buyer, prices are in U.S. Dollars and Payment must be in U.S. Dollars.

Prices are for Items only and do not include transaction taxes described in Section 6, shipping charges, freight, duties, and other charges or fees (such as fees for special packaging and labeling of Items, permits, certificates, customs declarations and registration) (collectively, "Additional Fees"). Buyer is responsible for any Additional Fees.

Items information, price, and availability on ti.com are subject to change at any time without prior notice.? Final pricing of Items, Additional Fees and delivery and shipping details will appear on the financial invoice, which will be available either immediately after shipment from TI or after customs clearance, depending upon the jurisdictional requirements. Buyer may access the applicable invoice via TI’s electronic portal.? If applicable, Buyer’s credit issuer may provide an invoice or a remittance information.? Buyer agrees to receive invoices from TI or credit issuer, if applicable, via email or electronic portal.??

3. Delivery.?

Except as otherwise offered by TI in writing to Buyer, shipments will be delivered FCA (Incoterms 2020) TI’s point of shipment.? With regard to international shipments that transit through international waters or airspace, title transfers to Buyer immediately after Items leave the jurisdictional territory of TI’s point of shipment. With regard to domestic shipments and international shipments that do not transit through international waters or airspace, title transfers upon delivery to Buyer’s carrier or nominee at TI’s point of shipment.? Risk of loss or damage will pass to Buyer upon TI’s delivery to the TI designated shipping point. Any subsequent loss or damage will not relieve Buyer from its obligations. Buyer is solely responsible for costs of freight and insurance after delivery to the TI designated shipping point. If TI incurs freight or insurance costs on Buyer’s behalf, Buyer must promptly reimburse TI for such freight or insurance costs.? Buyer is importer of record and is expressly responsible for all customs formalities, import duties, taxes and any other expenses incurred.? TI will not be liable for any damage, loss, fines or expenses resulting from shipments being held, delayed, or confiscated by customs or other relevant authorities.

Unless TI notifies Buyer otherwise, shipments will be delivered to the named place of destination indicated in Buyer’s order in accordance with the shipping terms indicated in the shipping instructions of Buyer’s order, as accepted by TI. ?Buyer agrees that TI or its vendors are authorized to pay import duties and taxes on Buyer’s behalf, as applicable. ?In certain cases, import duties and taxes may be charged directly to Buyer.? If the person at the named place of destination is not the same person placing the order (e.g., the person placing the order is a domestic corporation, and the person at the named place of destination is a foreign affiliate of the person placing the order), unless notified otherwise by Buyer in writing, TI will assume that the person at the named place of destination (and not the person placing the order) is the ultimate recipient of the Items.?

Where applicable, TI will communicate to Buyer an Estimated Ship Date. TI will not be liable for any damage, loss, or expense incurred by Buyer if TI fails to meet the Estimated Ship Date.? TI may deliver Items in installments.?

4. Cancellations, Rescheduling and Modifications; No Returns.

For Products, Wafer Products and Die Products,

• TI will publish the change order window for the Product, Wafer Product and/or Die Product by the TI part number;
• Inside the change order window, cancellation is generally not permitted; and
• In any event, Buyer should work with TI’s customer support center to support requests to cancel or change Buyer’s order.
• Requests to change Buyer’s order may result in such order being rescheduled at lead times.
• TI reserves the right to charge for cancellation and rescheduling of orders.

Orders for Evaluation Items (excluding Engineering Evaluation Units), and orders for Obsolete Products may not be cancelled or rescheduled.

Additionally, certain Items are subject to special cancellation and reschedule terms that TI will communicate to Buyer prior to order acceptance.

Except and to the extent expressly required by applicable law, or as expressly provide herein, TI does not offer any refunds, returns, or exchanges.

5. Payment Terms.?

Payment is due thirty (30) Days after TI’s invoice date. TI may change or withdraw credit amounts or payment terms at any time for any reason. Buyer may be charged at the time Buyer’s order is submitted depending on the payment method selected, in which case, Payment is due prior to the time of shipment of Items.

Buyer represents and warrants that Buyer has the right to use any credit card, bank account, or other payment methods that Buyer provides and that all billing information Buyer provides to TI is truthful and accurate and is not intended to conceal, disguise or misrepresent any third party whose involvement in the transaction would otherwise be prohibited under applicable law. TI may require additional information or verifications prior to shipping any order.

If Buyer or its affiliate(s) fails to make Payment when due, TI and its affiliates may suspend or cancel performance under any agreements, including delay or cancellation of shipment on any open orders. TI will not be liable for, and Buyer will hold TI harmless from, any costs or losses resulting from suspension or cancellation on account of Buyer’s failure to make Payment. Buyer may not deduct, withhold or set-off any Payment amounts on account of unresolved disputes. TI may charge Buyer 1.5% per month on overdue accounts (18% per year) to the extent permitted by law.? Buyer understands and authorizes TI to allocate or apply overpayments towards paying Buyer’s future orders or open invoices.

6. Taxes.?

Prices do not include any taxes including, without limitation, sales tax, value-added tax, goods and services tax, harmonized sales tax, or similar taxes. TI will add taxes to the sales price on its invoices (or provide information to enable local tax authorities to provide a separate tax invoice to Buyer) where required by applicable law and Buyer will pay such taxes unless Buyer provides TI with a duly executed sales tax exemption certificate prior to an order being placed. If Buyer is required by law to withhold any amount of tax from its Payment to TI, Buyer will take all reasonable steps to minimize such withholding tax, provide TI with a receipt or certificate as evidence the tax has been paid, and reimburse TI for the amount of withholding so that TI receives Payment for the full value of the invoice.

7. Contingencies.?

TI will not be in breach of this contract and will not be liable for any non-performance or delay in performance if such non-performance or delay is due to a force majeure event or other circumstances beyond TI’s reasonable control, whether foreseeable or unforeseeable. In the event of a shortage of components, TI may, at its sole discretion, allocate Item production and deliveries.

8. Warranties and Related Remedies.

8.1 Subject to Sections 8.2 through 8.4, 9 and 11 below, TI warrants to Buyer that each (i) Product conforms to TI’s published Specifications for such Product for a period of twelve (12) months after the date TI or a TI-authorized distributor delivers such Product, (ii) Wafer Product and Die Product conforms to TI’s published Specifications for such products for a period of thirty (30) Days after the date TI or a TI-authorized distributor delivers such product and (iii) Evaluation Kit will be free of defects in material and workmanship for a period of ninety (90) Days after the date TI or a TI-authorized distributor delivers such product.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, TI will not be liable for a nonconforming Item if:

(a) the nonconformity was caused by neglect, misuse, or mistreatment by an entity other than TI, including improper storage, installation or testing, usage of Items outside of the instructions set forth in the User Guide or for any Items that were altered or modified in any way by an entity other than TI;?

(b) the nonconformity resulted from Buyer’s design, specifications, software or instructions for such Items or improper system design;

(c)?where applicable, the nonconformity resulted from Buyer’s failure to timely update firmware associated with Items, as recommended by TI; or

(d) where applicable, Buyer has not paid on time.?

Testing and other quality control techniques are used to the extent TI deems necessary. TI does not necessarily test all parameters of each Item.

Buyer’s claims against TI under this Section 8 are void if Buyer fails to notify TI of any apparent defects in the Item within ten (10) business days after delivery, or of any hidden defects within ten (10) business days after the defect has been detected.?

8.2 TI’s sole liability will be at its option to repair or replace Items that fail to conform to the warranty set forth above, or credit Buyer’s account for such Items. TI’s liability under this warranty will be limited to Items that are returned during the warranty period to the address designated by TI and that are determined by TI not to conform to such warranty. If TI elects to repair or replace such Items, TI will have a reasonable time to complete such actions. Repaired Items will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period. Replaced Items will be warranted for a new full warranty period.

8.3 EXCEPT AS SET FORTH ABOVE, ITEMS, WAFER MAPS (AS DEFINED IN THIS CONTRACT) AND ALL RELATED DOCUMENTATION ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS.” TI DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING SUCH PRODUCTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY EPIDEMIC FAILURE WARRANTY, OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND FOR EVALUATION ITEMS AND OBSOLETE PRODUCTS ANY NONINFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.

8.4 TI may provide Buyer technical, applications, or design advice (including reference designs), quality characterization, reliability data, specialized flows, or other services or items. Buyer agrees that providing these services or items does not expand or otherwise alter TI’s warranties as set forth above and no additional obligations or liabilities arise from TI providing such services or items. TI PROVIDES ALL SERVICES AND ITEMS TO BUYER (OTHER THAN “ITEMS” DEFINED IN THIS CONTRACT) “AS IS” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS.” TI DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING SUCH SERVICES AND ITEMS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY EPIDEMIC FAILURE WARRANTY, OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND FOR ANY NONINFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.
