PRICES
Quoted prices remain valid for 48 hours from the time the quote is issued, unless otherwise stated in writing. In the event prices to ASAP Semiconductor increase, or in the event of cost increases due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control, ASAP Semiconductor may increase prices quoted to cover additional costs of Orders or cancel Orders at its discretion. ASAP Semiconductor will notify Customer of any such price increases and Customer will have 48 hours to accept revised price of Articles. Failure by Customer to respond to price increases within 48 hours will be deemed an Order cancellation. Orders canceled or deemed canceled as a result of price increases will be issued a full refund within 10 business days of provision by Customer to ASAP Semiconductor of necessary banking information to issue refund.
Prices are for Articles only and do not include taxes, impositions, or any other charges, fees, shipping costs or duties imposed by any intermediary or government authority, which shall be the responsibility of Customer.
Quoted prices are non-transferable. Any purchase order placed by a party other than the recipient of the quote is non-binding on ASAP Semiconductor and subject to requote.
LEAD TIMES
Quoted lead times are based on information provided to ASAP Semiconductor by its supplier sources. Quoted lead times are provided as an estimate only. ASAP Semiconductor will make every effort to provide Articles within the quoted lead times, however, lead times are subject to change without notice. All lead times shall be subject to the LIMITATION OF LIABILITY provisions of these Terms & Conditions.
Lead times quoted as “immediate” availability mean the item is immediately available to begin the shipping quality assurance process and other outbound compliance process requirements.

DELIVERY AND TITLE
All shipments are Ex Works EXW (Incoterms 2020) ASAP Semiconductor’s warehouse. Risk of Loss shall pass to Customer when the Article is delivered to the carrier who will be responsible for carriage from ASAP Semiconductor to the Customer, or when the Article is claimed by the Customer in the event the Article is picked up at ASAP Semiconductor by the Customer or the Customer’s agent. Carrier and method of payment to carrier shall be determined by ASAP Semiconductor and Customer during negotiation of Order.
DELIVERY DATES ARE ESTIMATES ONLY. ASAP Semiconductor is not liable for delays in delivery as a result of export compliance processes, quality protocols, shipping delays or interruptions, or circumstances beyond ASAP Semiconductor’s control. ASAP Semiconductor reserves the right to make partial shipments in fulfilment of an Order, and Customer will accept delivery and pay for the Articles delivered on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Order and these Terms and Conditions. ASAP Semiconductor is entitled to complete shipment of a full Order, regardless of any delays in whole or in part of the Order. A delayed delivery of any part of an Order does not entitle Customer to cancel or delay other deliveries arising out of the same Order unless authorized by ASAP Semiconductor in writing.
In the event that an Article is lost, stolen or destroyed before Risk of Loss has passed, the Customer must notify ASAP Semiconductor, in writing, within 5 days of the loss or else the Customer waives any right to compensation and remains responsible for the purchase price. In the event that Customer provides proper notice of loss, ASAP Semiconductor shall (1) provide to Customer a replacement Article meeting the same standards as the original Article (excluding contract terms related to expected arrival), or (2) make a prompt refund to Customer of the purchase price with respect to the lost or stolen Article. The choice of remedy will be at ASAP Semiconductor’s discretion; if ASAP Semiconductor notifies the customer that ASAP Semiconductor will provide to Customer a replacement Article, then Customer shall have 30 days from the date on which notification is sent to place a purchase order for the replacement article or else this right to a remedy shall be waived. In all events, Customer is expected to insure its articles against loss and if Customer fails to insure articles against loss then Customer does so at its own peril.
INSPECTION, ACCEPTANCE, AND RETURN OF ARTICLES
Customer shall have 7 calendar days after delivery in which to inspect the Article. Customer must notify ASAP Semiconductor of any discrepancies found during this inspection period. In the event that Customer discovers discrepancies during inspection, Customer must notify ASAP Semiconductor in writing during the inspection period. After the 7th day, Customer is deemed to have accepted the Articles and may not revoke acceptance.
In the event that a discrepancy is identified in writing to ASAP Semiconductor, ASAP Semiconductor will review the discrepancy and may issue a return material authorization (“RMA”). Customer cannot return Articles without an RMA number issued by ASAP Semiconductor. RMAs are only issued in cases in which Articles do not meet the condition identified in the documentation. Under no circumstances will an RMA issue for reasons related to price of Articles or due to Customer error in ordering Articles.
RMAs shall remain valid only for the time specified on the RMA—in no case to exceed 30 days—and Articles must be returned to ASAP Semiconductor within the specified time. After the specified time period the RMA will expire and returns will not be accepted. Articles will remain the property of the Customer if not received in the time specified in the RMA or if Articles are not in the same condition as sold by ASAP Semiconductor.
In response to a written notification of discrepancy under the inspection provisions of these Terms and Conditions, ASAP Semiconductor may either reject the claim if the claim is not authorized under the inspection provisions of these Terms and Conditions, or issue an RMA and accept the return of the Article (in such an event, cost of return shipping shall be borne by Customer). For low-cost Articles, ASAP Semiconductor may, at its discretion, issue a material mutilation authorization (“MMA”). Customers issued an MMA must provide to ASAP Semiconductor within 30 days of issuance a written certification certifying mutilation or destruction of discrepant Articles.
Returned Articles must be in the original shipping packaging or equivalent thereof and must be returned in original manufacturer’s packaging if shipped in the same. Returned Articles must be accompanied by all provided documentation, including but not limited to manufacturers Certificates of Conformity (“C of C”), FAA Form 8130-3 or equivalent, and all traceability documentation. Shipping charges and fees, including insurance as specified in the RMA will be paid by Customer. Customer bears Risk of Loss of the Article until received by ASAP Semiconductor. Returned Articles must be shipped signature upon delivery. In the event Returned Articles are shipped without signature upon delivery, ASAP Semiconductor reserves the right to cancel the RMA. ASAP Semiconductor bears no responsibility for returned Articles delivered to ASAP Semiconductor without signature of receipt. ASAP Semiconductor bears no responsibility for returned Articles shipped without a valid RMA.
Customer must pay any restocking charges. Articles without a valid RMA will be returned to Customer at Customer’s expense. In the event Articles cannot be returned to Customer, Customer will have 90 days to arrange for recovery of the Articles. If Customer does not arrange for recovery of the Articles within 90 days, the Articles will be deemed to be forfeited and returned to ASAP Semiconductor stock and Customer will not be entitled to a refund.
RESTOCKING FEES
Customers will be subject to a restocking fee for all returned Articles. The restocking fee is inclusive of ASAP Semiconductor’s costs, including but not limited to time, resource and human capital allocation, and use. Restocking fees will be determined in ASAP Semiconductor’s discretion and shall be a minimum of 25% of the total cost of the Order unless otherwise determined by ASAP Semiconductor. Restocking fees may exceed 25% of the total cost of the Order depending upon costs incurred by ASAP Semiconductor. Returns resulting from failure to provide accurate end user information or providing misleading information on Orders for Articles destined outside of the United States will result in a restocking fee of 50% of the total cost of the Order. Articles returned as a result of Customer identifying and contacting ASAP Semiconductor’s suppliers will be subject to a 100% restocking fee.
ASAP Semiconductor may deduct the restocking fee as determined by this section from any deposit or other monies paid to ASAP Semiconductor by Customer.
