amendment to an order must be approved by Seller in writing and may be subject to restocking charges and other charges. Seller reserves the right to cancel
an order upon breach thereof by the Purchaser, failure by the Purchaser to make payment required by an order or any other agreement, or the insolvency or

Purchaser, its agents, servants, employees or customers.

waiver or relinquishment of its rights to such performance or the future performance of such term or terms and Purchaser’s obligation with respect thereto
shall continue in full force and effect. Any notice or other communication from Purchaser required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing by
registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to Seller at its business address. The invalidity, in whole or in part, of any provision of these terms and
