These General Terms and Conditions of Sale (“Terms and Conditions”) govern the agreement (“Agreement” – As described in the following paragraph) regarding the sale, licensing, resale and distribution, as applicable, made by the TD SYNNNEX Entities specified in Exhibit I (“TD SYNNNEX”) to a customer (“BUYER”) of hardware, software and services from third party providers (each a “Manufacturer”) other than the TD SYNNEX Entity (collectively “Manufacturer Products”), as well as services performed by TD SYNNEX (“TD SYNNEX Services”); (TD SYNNEX Services and Manufacturer Products, collectively referred to as “Goods”).
The Agreement shall include all terms and conditions agreed between the parties, as well as these Terms and Conditions and any documents referenced herein. BUYER’s Terms and Conditions are expressly rejected and shall not apply, even if BUYER refers to its own terms and conditions in its offer, purchase order, acceptance or otherwise and TD SYNNEX does not object to them. No other agreement, representation or promise modifies these Terms and Conditions unless mutually agreed to in writing or electronically via electronic signatures, email or TD SYNNEX portals.
In the event of any inconsistency between any individual agreement entered between TD SYNNEX and BUYER and these Terms and Conditions or any other terms and conditions referenced herein, the individual agreements shall prevail.
2. MANUFACTURER’S PASS-THROUGH TERMS
Certain Manufacturers require TD SYNNEX to transfer particular terms and conditions applicable to the Manufacturer’s Goods to BUYERS and/or their End Users. By purchasing or licensing, as applicable, the Manufacturer’s Goods from TD SYNNEX, BUYER agrees to the Manufacturer’s Pass-Through Terms, which shall form part of the Agreement between TD SYNNEX and BUYER. To the extent required by the Manufacturer’s Pass-Through Terms, BUYER shall pass through such terms to its End User in its contract with the End User.
The Manufacturers may modify, at any time, the respective Manufacturer’s Pass-Through Terms in connection with Manufacturer’s Products. In the event of any conflict between the Manufacturer’s Pass-Through Terms and these Terms and Conditions, the Manufacturer’s Pass-Through Terms shall prevail.
3. BILLING TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Business transacted in U.S. dollars, which is legal tender in the United States of America (USD); nevertheless, it may be paid in local currency, subject to prior authorization by TD SYNNEX. For such purposes and unless otherwise provided, all amounts in U.S. dollars shall be converted into local currency of the country, according to the quotation of the U.S. dollar calculated on the day prior to the respective invoicing. For the aforementioned conversion, the exchange rate (sale) established by the Central Bank corresponding to the day prior to the date of invoicing shall be used.
The Equipment shall be invoiced on the date of shipment of the goods by TD SYNNEX to the BUYER. Services and Licenses shall be invoiced at the time defined and agreed upon in the Sales Quotation and/or Services Offer issued by TD SYNNEX (hereinafter referred to as the Proposal) and the purchase order confirmation.
4. TERMS OF PAYMENT (subject to credit analysis)
The existence of any type of agreement or contractual relationship of the BUYER with third parties does not affect the payment terms set forth in the Proposal.
BUYER is obliged to keep its registration in TD SYNNEX duly updated, to instrumentalize the respective collection. Any imprecision or inaccuracy in the registration and the eventual damage resulting therefrom may not be invoked by BUYER to eliminate or mitigate its obligation to make payment on the due date. For sales for which payments are to be made to a foreign TD SYNNEX Entity, all taxes to be withheld/collected at the time of remittance of the respective payments (gross up) must be added to the total price of the Proposal to guarantee TD SYNNNEX payment of the full amount provided for in the Proposal. Any payment terms other than those stated in the Proposal must be expressly stated in a written document sent by TD SYNNEX, and any other payment terms provided for in any other instrument not issued by TD SYNNEX shall be null and ineffective. BUYER authorizes TD SYNNEX to obtain credit information and documentation that will enable it to analyze BUYER’s creditworthiness in accordance with TD SYNNEX’s normal practices and policies, including, but not limited to, financial statements, credit references, business references, credit bureau reports, and the like. TD SYNNEX will make its own independent determination as to the creditworthiness of BUYER for the eventual granting of a line of credit.
5. DELIVERY
The delivery forecast reported in a Proposal is an estimate based on historical data, to be counted from the date of issuance of the sales order (SO) by TD SYNNEX, which will be made after analysis and confirmation that all mandatory data have been reported by the BUYER. BUYER is aware and therefore accepts that the delivery of the goods may occur before or after the date(s) specified in the Proposal, due to external factors such as delays in manufacturing or availability on the part of the Manufacturer, operational, commercial, or customs issues, acts of God, or force majeure. In such cases, TD SYNNEX shall not be liable in any way for any loss or damage caused to the BUYER. TD SYNNEX shall only be liable for delays attributable exclusively to its direct actions. The generation of the OV, and not BUYER’s purchase order, is the starting point for counting the estimated days for delivery of the Goods, which shall be updated after each movement of the product from its origin. BUYER shall immediately notify TD SYNNEX, within up to three (3) days of receipt of the Goods, if it finds that there is any non-apparent damage to the Goods, except for deliveries revealing external and apparent damage, which shall be rejected immediately upon delivery by the carrier. Such notification shall be made in writing and shall be reasonably detailed, stating the reasons for such rejection. Failure to give notice within the aforesaid period shall be deemed an acceptance of delivery and without objection of the Goods.
Goods in stock are not reserved for a Proposal and are subject to confirmation of availability upon acceptance of a purchase order. Delivery of Goods may be evidenced by any effective means, including certifications issued by the respective Manufacturer.
6. TD SYNNEX SERVICES

The list of goods presented in a Proposal must be technically validated by BUYER and TD SYNNEX is exempt from liability for possible configuration or design errors.
BUYER is solely responsible for the specifications of the Goods listed in the Proposal, and TD SYNNEX has not provided, in this act or at any time, counseling or advice that imports liability for the suitability or efficiency of the Goods purchased against BUYER’s interests, in isolation or in the context of a project.

The warranty of the Goods is the sole responsibility of the respective Manufacturers/Providers and must be requested from them. The term, conditions and processing of the warranty are stipulated by the policy defined by the respective Manufacturers/Providers for each of their Goods, which BUYER declares to know and accept. Eventual defects verified in the execution of the contractual obligations of the Manufacturer of the Goods shall not be considered by BUYER as a reason to suspend or deviate from its duty to pay the price fixed in this instrument.
8. PRICES AND TAXES
Prices are valid only for the purchase of the total quantities described in the Proposal.
All taxes, calculated in accordance with the law in effect at the time of issuance of the Proposal, shall be included in the values submitted.
BUYER shall not deduct any amount from any invoice from TD SYNNEX, without the prior express approval of TD SYNNNEX, which in turn shall be contingent upon the provision of all supporting documentation for this deduction as required by TD SYNNNEX.
The prices indicated may undergo changes, even after having being accepted by BUYER, due to the incidence rules (applicable tax rate, calculation basis, etc.) of taxes levied on them, due to the creation of new taxes or the modification of the Manufacturer’s price list, provided that this is duly proven. It is understood, for all purposes, that the increase in the tax burden shall be measured on the basis of the effective application of the new tax rules in force at the time of the respective invoicing.
TD SYNNEX is not responsible for maintaining the same prices for new Goods that eventually replace the products discontinued by the Manufacturer, leaving it to the discretion of BUYER to request a new proposal with the products updated with their market price.
9. CONDITIONS OF SALE
Upon acceptance of the Proposal, no change in the quality and quantity of the Goods sold, which have already been accepted, shall be accepted, unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties.
Payment terms are subject to credit analysis up to the time of invoicing. TD SYNNEX will or will not extend credit to BUYER in accordance with its credit policy and may require the purchase price to be paid prior to shipment (“prepayment”). TD SYNNEX may, from time to time, without notice, change or revoke BUYER’s credit limit based on changes in TD SYNNEX’s credit policies or BUYER’s financial condition and/or BUYER’s payment history. In the event that BUYER is late in making any payment for which it is responsible, TD SYNNNEX may apply, from the day after the due date until the date of actual payment, default interest at the Monthly Interest Rate detailed in Exhibit II -A that corresponds to the TD SYNNNEX entity, as well as a late penalty for the late payment at the rate of 10% (ten percent) from the fifth day after its due date, without prejudice to the exercise of any other actions to which TD SYNNNEX is entitled.
In case the judicial collection of debts is necessary, the BUYER shall pay 20% (twenty percent) of the total amount of the debt for legal fees.
BUYERS’ requests for substitution/alteration of tax documents may only be honored if they are formally sent, with due justification, to TD SYNNEX within the term established in the applicable tax legislation and provided that the commercial conditions of the respective business do not change. Even if the request for substitution/alteration is submitted within the deadline, it is up to TD SYNNEX whether or not to comply with the request submitted.
- LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Subject to the limitations set forth in the following paragraph and in these Terms and Conditions, TD SYNNEX’s liability arising under these Terms and Conditions, or in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be limited to actual, proven and direct damages.

11. DIRECT BILLING
In the event, invoicing is made directly to the End User, because of the business/project brokered by BUYER, to whom the Proposal is addressed, the latter (BUYER, capturer of the business/project) assumes the following obligations vis-à-vis TD SYNNEX: (a) to ensure that End User has full knowledge of the contents of this instrument, obtaining its acceptance of these terms and conditions; (b) to keep the End User’s registration with TD SYNNEX duly completed and updated; (c) to be jointly and severally liable to TD SYNNNEX for the End User’s default, in the following cases: c.1) in case it does not obtain from the End User, to whom the goods are destined, the express and irrevocable acceptance of the contents of this instrument and of the respective invoicing; c.2) if it does not keep the End User’s registration correctly updated in TD SYNNEX’s database; and c.3) if the End User refuses to pay for the supply because of an act or omission attributable to BUYER. Failure to comply with any of the obligations set forth in this Section shall entitle TD SYNNEX to make, regardless of prior notice or acceptance, compensation for the amount corresponding to the verified damage or loss of profit, including in respect of charges (correction, interest and penalty) not received by reason of the End User’s delay, in any payment that BUYER is entitled to receive from TD SYNNNEX.
The commission shall be due to BUYER only after TD SYNNEX receives total payment of the adjusted amounts for the brokered supply, there being no right or claim of BUYER before such payment has occurred. If partial payments occur, the commission shall be paid pro rata, based on the partial payments. Unless otherwise stated, payment of the commission shall be made to BUYER, no later than (15) fifteen calendar days after TD SYNNEX actually receives from End User the amounts due to it. BUYER shall issue the corresponding invoices for the commission service or commercial intermediation after confirmation that TD SYNNEX has received the adjusted amounts for the sale.
The description of the services linked to the invoice must include the details of the fees that make up the total amount invoiced. The respective payment schedule shall follow the internal rules of TD SYNNEX. The calculation of the commissions will always be made on the basis of the calculation formula determined by TD SYNNEX and using the same exchange rate used by TD SYNNEX in its invoicing, regardless of the exchange rate eventually used by the BUYER in its business. BUYER agrees to reimburse TD SYNNEX for any sales commission paid in error at the time prior to actual receipt of the adjusted amounts for the sale.
BUYER expressly authorizes the withholding and offsetting of commissions owed to it in the event it is indebted to TD SYNNEX, regardless of prior consent or communication. Due to TD SYNNEX’s operating circumstances, BUYER acknowledges and agrees that: (i) it must send TD SYNNEX invoices for payment of commissions no later than 120 (one hundred and twenty) days from the date on which payments are made to TD SYNNEX by the respective End Users, under penalty of forfeiture of the respective commission; and (ii) if there is a delay of more than 180 (one hundred and eighty) days in relation to the total payment due to TD SYNNEX by the respective End Users, the loss of the respective commission will occur, even if the End Users make the payment of the debt after such period.
12. ACCEPTANCE OF THE PROPOSAL
Approval of the Proposal shall be made upon acceptance by the BUYER. Such acceptance may be formalized by e-mail, by electronic means or any written document sent by an authorized person of the purchasing company, or even by the simple receipt of the respective Goods, constituting, from this acceptance, an agreement between the parties, irrevocably and not subject to cancellation or withdrawal for any reason whatsoever (including issues related to the Goods purchased, dollar variation, unlawful acts attributable to third parties and facts linked to the respective Manufacturer), which shall comply with all the clauses and conditions herein provided, with BUYER having no right/possibility of withdrawal or repentance after accepting the Proposal.
In case of submission of a purchase order under the format of BUYER in response to the submission of a Proposal, the placement of a purchase order shall be deemed as full and unrestricted acceptance to the terms and conditions of such Proposal. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of BUYER’s purchase order and a Proposal, the terms and conditions of the Proposal shall prevail, unless TD SYNNEX expressly states in writing that any provision of the Proposal is inapplicable. The purchase order must contain all information necessary for invoicing, delivery and collection, as well as documentation required by Manufacturer for acceptance and processing of the order. The processing of the sales order is the signal that the purchase order received by TD SYNNEX is complete and accepted.
13. NO CANCELLATION
After its acceptance, no cancellation or withdrawal shall be allowed for any reason (including the variation of the dollar, acts related to the Goods purchased, acts or conduct related to the Manufacturer of the Goods, commercial issues related to BUYER, among others), so that BUYER shall purchase and pay the total amount for the Goods in the manner and term provided herein.
In the event that BUYER acquires the supply of Software Licenses and their respective related services, BUYER accepts that the acquisition shall be made for the total amount of price established in the Proposal, which corresponds to the total term of the respective subscription, therefore any fractional payment of the price and/or of the respective invoicing does not grant BUYER the right to cancel the periods not yet used of the subscription period, which shall be paid in full, in any hypothesis.
