TERMS OF PURCHASE

Product Selection and Suitability

Most products offered by Fastenal are obtained from multiple supply sources, located throughout the United States and internationally. Many states and localities have codes and regulations governing sales, construction, installation, and/or use of products for certain purposes, which may vary from those in neighboring areas. While Fastenal attempts to assure that its products comply with such codes, it cannot guarantee compliance, and cannot be responsible for how the product is installed or used. Fastenal makes every reasonable attempt to ensure the quality of these supply sources and the products they offer. As these products are dynamic and versatile, Fastenal shall not be responsible for how products are used or installed and the product's conformance to local or regional codes or regulations. Review the product materials and application, and relevant code, regulations or ordinances, to be certain that the product, its installation, and use will satisfy these requirements. In no event will Fastenal be responsible for any loss or damage arising out of Purchaser's improper selection, misapplication or misuse of a product.

Limited Warranty

Fastenal warrants, for a period of one (1) year after delivery, that all Products delivered to Purchaser hereunder shall be free from any defects in material or workmanship and in conformity with any applicable specifications. Such warranty only extends to Purchaser. Purchaser shall inspect Products within a reasonable time after receipt, and shall promptly notify Fastenal of any claimed defect or nonconformity. Any Products determined to be defective in material or workmanship must be returned, with an invoice and/or control number to a Fastenal branch or authorized location, shipping costs to be prepaid by Purchaser, within the one-year warranty period. Correction shall be made or replacement products shall be delivered by Fastenal, unless prevented by conditions not subject to Fastenal's control. This warranty shall not be applicable in the event of the misapplication or misuse of the Product by Purchaser. Fastenal makes no warranties to those defined as consumers in the Magnuson-Moss Warranty-Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act. THE FOREGOING WARRANTIES ARE IN PLACE OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED AND FASTENAL COMPANY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Disclaimer

NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IS MADE BY FASTENAL, OTHER THAN WHAT IS PROVIDED IN THE ABOVE WARRANTY SECTION. FASTENAL DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR PRODUCT DEFECT CLAIMS THAT ARE DUE TO THE MISUSE, IMPROPER SELECTION OR MISAPPLICATION OF THE PRODUCT.

Limitation of Liability

IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR INJURIES TO PERSONS OR TO PROPERTY OR LOSS OF PROFITS OR LOSS OF FUTURE BUSINESS OR REPUTATION, WHETHER BASED ON TORT OR BREACH OF CONTRACT OR OTHER BASIS, EVEN IF IT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL FASTENAL'S DIRECT DAMAGES EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT.

Cancellation and Returns

Fastenal must approve cancellation of any order prior to shipment. Orders for Special or Non-standard Products (not in the catalogue) may not be cancelled or returned. Any returns for shipping errors, damage or loss upon delivery must be reported within 10 days of the delivery date. Except as otherwise agreed, Products will not be accepted for return after 30 days from the date of delivery to the Purchaser. Any cancellation or returns accepted after 30 days may be subject to a restocking fee and other charges, for which the Purchaser shall be responsible. All returns should be made to a Fastenal branch or as otherwise designated by Fastenal, and must be in resalable condition and accompanied with an Invoice.

Security Interest

Purchaser grants to Fastenal a priority lien, purchase money security interest in the products and any accounts receivable or cash from the resale of the products until full payment is received, with respect to any sales on open account. Purchaser shall complete and cooperate with the submission of any documents necessary to validate or enforce Fastenal's rights hereunder.

Published Product Information

Fastenal reasonably attempts to maintain up-to-date and accurate pricing, availability and usage information about the products contained in its catalogs. However, this information is dependent upon information distributed by and obtained from a manufacturer or supplier and is subject to change at any time. Fastenal reserves the right to revise catalog information at any time, without notice, and Fastenal will not be responsible for any pricing errors contained therein. FASTENAL MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, CONCERNING THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN ITS CATALOGS.

California Proposition 65 and OSHA Hazardous Substance Information

Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for OSHA defining hazardous substances and a list of products known by the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm are available at your local Fastenal branch store, or by contacting Fastenal's product support division at msdsinfo@fastenal.com. The information and recommendations contained on the MSDS supplied by the manufacturer is considered to be accurate and reliable. Fastenal does not, however, make any warranty concerning the accuracy of the information or the suitability of the recommendations. Fastenal disclaims any and all liability to Purchaser and/or any other user.

Force Majeure

Fastenal will not be liable or held responsible for any delays or losses resulting, directly or indirectly from Acts of God, severe weather conditions, labor disputes, governmental actions, inability to obtain permits, licenses, raw materials or shipments of product, war, riots, shortages and any other circumstances or causes beyond our reasonable control.

Governing Law

These Terms and Conditions shall be construed, interpreted and performed according to the laws, excluding conflict of law rules, of the State of Minnesota, United States of America. Any legal action must be filed and commenced within one year after it arises. The failure of either party to assert a right hereunder or to insist upon compliance with any term or condition will not constitute a waiver of that right or excuse any subsequent nonperformance of any such term or condition by the other party. The Uniform Commercial Code as adopted by the State of Minnesota will be applied, without application of any similar state or international law or treaty.

Miscellaneous

The relationship between Fastenal and Purchaser shall be that of an independent contractor.

Any credit applied to the account of Purchaser must be used within one (1) year and any credits remaining after this time period will be subject to cancellation if not used or requested.

Fastenal reserves the right to charge interest at the rate of 18% per annum (1.5% monthly) or at the highest rate available under applicable law, to any account balance exceeding the terms set forth herein.

Unless otherwise stated with the order, Purchaser will pre-pay for any freight costs associated with the delivery of product to its destination. Any extra or additional charges or services rendered in transit or at the destination will be the responsibility of Purchaser. Title and risk of loss will pass to Purchaser upon delivery to the common carrier.

International Orders (Outside United States)

In addition to the forgoing Order terms, Purchaser represents that it is purchasing the products to be exported from the United States and importing them to the country specified in the purchase order. Purchaser agrees that the products will be shipped to that destination in compliance with the laws of such country. No re-export or diversion will occur. Purchaser will be responsible for obtaining and paying for all licenses, permits or similar governmental authorizations necessary for the exportation and importation of the product. All costs associated with exportation and importation of the product, including the selection and use of freight forwarders, will be the sole responsibility of Purchaser. At the time of Order, Purchaser agrees to inform Fastenal of any NAFTA or other certificates of origin or other special documentation, packaging or product marking or labeling, but Fastenal shall not be responsible for providing any such documentation, packaging, marking or labeling, unless expressly agreed by Fastenal.
