These Terms prevail over any of Customer’s terms and conditions of purchase.  Fulfillment of Customer’s order does not constitute acceptance of any of Customer’s terms and conditions and does not serve to modify or amend these Terms.  The amount set forth in the Terms is (the “Purchase Price”).  Purchase Orders may be accepted at MTI’s discretion, provided that a valid Purchase Order is issued upon acceptance of the Terms.
  2. Payment Terms. Upon acceptance of the Terms, MTI may but is not obligated to sell Products to Customer on credit.  If Customer desires credit, the Customer must apply for credit through MTI’s credit application process.  In the event that MTI sells Products on credit then payment in full shall be due and payable thirty (30) days from the date of invoice except for specific amounts disputed in good faith by Customer.  Otherwise, MTI will sell Products to Customer on prepaid Payment Terms.  All payments must be paid by an acceptable Payment Method.  MTI shall issue an invoice to Customer upon shipment of Product (whether a complete or partial fulfillment of the order).  The invoice shall state the amount to be paid by the Customer for all such shipped Product, as well as the taxes, duties, excises or shipping, handling, and transportation charges paid by MTI to be reimbursed by Customer.
