EFFECTIVE June 1, 2018 GENERAL - The following information herein set forth is directed to Distributors and Dealers of LEE DAN products only and is in lieu of any other terms and conditions of sale, either expressed or implied. No person is authorized to assume for LEE DAN any other liability in addition to those set forth herein, without the written consent of an officer of LEE DAN. Approval will be withdrawn if the Distributor or Dealer is not producing sales volume satisfactory in the judgment of LEE DAN, or is otherwise in breach of the terms and conditions of sale as set forth below. ACCEPTANCE OF ORDERS - Orders are subject to acceptance by our sales and credit departments. LEE DAN will not be responsible for any errors caused by verbal orders. Claims for errors can only be made on written purchase orders. TERMS - Firms wishing to establish open terms, must submit a properly completed credit application form Y-101. Please allow 2-4 weeks for processing. Until credit is established, all orders are strictly C.O.D. C.O.D. payment by cash, certified check, or money order, may be required of businesses without a favorable credit rating or history. All credit card orders must be prepaid in full. Once credit is established, standard open terms are 1%-10, NET 30 DAYS. All shipments are invoiced as of the date of shipment. A discount of 1% of the value of goods (excluding freight and tax) may be taken off payments made within 10 days of the date of invoice. Payment is due within 30 calendar days of invoice date. Post-dated checks will not be accepted at any time. A service charge of $40.00 will be debited to any customer whose check is returned to us by the customer’s bank. Any customer with two (2) returned checks in any 12 month period may be converted to a check with order account, with funds to be cleared before shipment. A finance charge of 1.5% percent per month (18% yearly), will be imposed on past-due balances over 30 days old. All shipments will be withheld from any customer with a balance over 45 days old, until payment is made in full, and credit is re-established. All orders for custom-made, or special order merchandise are subject to a binding non-refundable deposit, regardless of customer’s regular terms with us. All customer’s terms are subject to review and revision, at any time, by our credit department. All customers submitting a credit application (Y-101) for approval, accept liability for all legal and/or collection fees incurred by LEE DAN in any legal suit or collection activity, undertaken for the purpose of collecting any sum due past 90 days. This liability shall not exceed 30% of unpaid balances, including finance charges. MINIMUM ORDERS - There are no minimum order requirements, however, due to the cost of handling small orders, there is a $5.00 handling charge on orders under $35.00 (excluding tax and freight). All lobby panels and custom made items carry a minimum production charge. See custom panel price list for more information. FREIGHT POLICY- Open terms shipments totaling $1,200 or more (except horizontal, 4C and pedestal mailboxes, and parcel lockers) to one destination, at one time, will be shipped freight paid within the 48 continental United States.

Inspect shipments for damage upon arrival. Damage should be noted on packing slip by freight or express agent to press claim. Short shipment claims must be made within seven days of receipt. Failure to do so nullifies any claim against us.
