  • Termination Not Exclusive Remedy.  Any remedy provided to Presidential Oils shall not be construed to be an exclusive remedy and shall not deprive Presidential Oils of its ability to pursue other available remedies. The parties agree that Presidential Oils’ damages in the event of termination would be difficult or impossible to ascertain and, therefore, any early cancellation or termination charges invoiced to User by Presidential Oils are intended to serve as liquidated damages rather than penalties.
  • Force Majeure. Presidential Oils shall not be liable for any loss, damage, delays, changes in shipment schedules or failure to deliver caused by any event beyond its control, including, without limitation, acts or omissions of any manufacturer, accident, fire, actual or threatened strike or riot, explosion, mechanical breakdown (including technological or information systems), plant shutdown, unavailability of or interference with necessary transportation, any raw material or power shortage, compliance with any law, regulation or order, acts of God or public enemy, prior orders from others, or limitations on Presidential Oils’ or a manufacturer’s products or marketing activities or any other cause or contingency beyond Presidential Oils’ direct control. The time for performance shall be extended for a period equivalent to the delay. If, by reason of any of the foregoing events, Presidential Oils’ supply of the Goods shall be insufficient to meet all requirements, including its own, Presidential Oils shall have the right, at its option, and without liability, to allocate its available supply of Goods among its present and future Users in such a manner as Presidential Oils deems equitable.  
  • Assignment.  The rights under these Terms and Conditions are not assignable nor are the duties delegable by User without the written consent of Presidential Oils first having been obtained, and any attempted assignment or delegation without such consent will be null and void.  Nothing contained in these Terms and Conditions is intended to convey upon any person or entity, other than the parties and their successors in interest and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of these Terms and Conditions unless expressly stated.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties of the parties contained in these Terms and Conditions are binding on and will inure to the benefit of User and Presidential Oils, respectively, and their respective successors and permitted assigns.   
  • Captions and Section Headings.  Captions and section headings are for convenience only, are not a part of these Terms and Conditions and may not be used in construing them.
  • Waiver of Terms and Conditions. The failure of Presidential Oils in any one or more instances to insist upon performance of any of the terms and conditions contained herein, or to exercise any right or privilege hereunder, shall not be construed as a waiver of any Presidential Oils’ rights or privileges hereunder.
  • Governing Law; Venue. These Terms and Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, including its provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, without regard to choice or conflicts of law principles.  These Terms and Conditions shall be deemed to have been entered into at Cleveland, Ohio, U.S.A., regardless of the place or places of business of the User.  
  • Exclusive Jurisdiction.  THE USER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY OHIO STATE COURT OR FEDERAL COURT SITTING IN CUYAHOGA COUNTY, OHIO, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SITE AND THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS.  THE USER AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event User’s primary place of business is located within the People’s Republic of China (each, a “Chinese Customer”), all disputes, controversies, or differences which may arise between Presidential Oils and a Chinese Customer, out of or in relation to or in connection with these Terms and Conditions or for the breach of the foregoing, shall be finally settled under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce by one (1) arbitrator appointed in accordance with the said Rules. The language of the arbitration shall be English.  The situs for such arbitration shall be Hong Kong, China.  The arbitrator shall apply the laws of the State of Ohio, USA to the merits of the dispute.  The award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon both Presidential Oils and Chinese Customer and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.  The parties hereby exclude the application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
  • International Transactions.  All payments, including for any international transactions, will be made in U.S. dollars unless otherwise agreed to by Presidential Oils, and User will be responsible for any currency conversion charges. User will, at User’s expense, obtain all export and import licenses, permits and clearances required by applicable laws, regulations, ordinances, and the like in respect of the Products.
  • Limitation on Time to File Claims.  ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM USER MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OR THE SITE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

For purposes of this section, “government official” means any official, officer, representative, or employee of any non-U.S. government department, agency or instrumentality (including any government-owned or controlled commercial enterprise), or any official of a public international organization or political party or candidate for political office.  User represents and warrants that, in the performance of these Terms and Conditions and in connection with any Transaction, (i) neither it nor any of its representatives are governmental employees or officials or candidates for political office and User will advise Presidential Oils of any change in such representation; (ii) User and its representatives have not and will not make, offer, or agree to offer anything of value to any government official, political party, or candidate for office; (iii) User will comply with all provisions of the FCPA and the regulations thereunder as amended from time to time; and (iv) User agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold Presidential Oils harmless for damages and expenses resulting from a violation of the foregoing by User or its representatives.
