We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order at any time for reasons including but not limited to product unavailability, errors in pricing or product descriptions, or concerns related to export compliance or end-use verification.

All pricing is quoted in U.S. dollars and is subject to change without notice. Prices do not include federal, state, or local sales, use, excise, or similar taxes, duties, or assessments applicable to the sale, production, transportation, or use of products sold.

All accounts are subject to stop-shipment action should past-due balances or balances in excess of credit limits arise. Heli-UP reserves the right at any time to alter or suspend credit, or to change credit terms, when in its sole opinion the financial condition of the purchaser so warrants. Where payments are made by wire transfer, the purchaser is responsible for any bank fees charged by intermediary banks.

If the purchaser fails to give such notice, the goods shall be deemed accepted and in conformity with these Terms.

The purchaser will, at the request of Heli-UP, negotiate any claim or defend any action or suit brought against Heli-UP or in which Heli-UP is joined as a party defendant based upon any matters for which the purchaser has indemnified Heli-UP hereunder.
15. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Heli-UP shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, lost profits, or commercial losses arising out of or related to the purchase, handling, storage, transportation, resale, or use of any product or service, whether or not based upon Heli-UP’s negligence, breach of warranty, or strict liability. Heli-UP shall not be liable for any loss, damage, or injury to persons or property resulting from the handling, storage, transportation, resale, or use of its products in manufacturing processes, in combination with other substances, or otherwise. Heli-UP makes no warranty and disclaims all liability with respect to work performed by third parties at the purchaser’s request. Heli-UP's total liability for any claim shall not exceed the amount paid for the specific product or service giving rise to the claim.
16. Force Majeure
Heli-UP shall not be held in default for failure to deliver or for delay in delivery arising out of causes beyond its control and without its fault or negligence, including but not limited to acts of God or of the public enemy, acts of the government in either its sovereign or contractual capacity, fires, floods, epidemics, pandemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, labor disputes, freight embargoes, and unusually severe weather. If a delay or failure to deliver is caused by the delay or failure of a subcontractor, and if such delay arises out of causes beyond the control of both Heli-UP and the subcontractor without the fault or negligence of either, Heli-UP shall not be liable for any such delay unless the materials or services were obtainable from other sources in sufficient time to permit Heli-UP to meet the required delivery schedule. Any excusable delay shall not terminate these Terms, and Heli-UP shall deliver the goods as promptly as practicable thereafter.

19. Remedies and Waiver

20. Government Contracts
No contract or provision thereof made by the purchaser with any other party shall be binding upon Heli-UP or affect Heli-UP’s agreement with the purchaser unless such contract is first submitted to Heli-UP and any applicable provisions are accepted and agreed to by Heli-UP in writing.
