TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INCORPORATED (“TI”) TERMS OF SALE & SERVICE
Education Technology Products
United States and Canada
1. Applicability, Offer and Acceptance.
Orders for Products placed through either (1) Online Platforms, or (2) 1-800-TI-CARES shall be subject to additional terms set forth below in Appendix A: Supplemental Terms for Online Platforms and 1-800-TI-CARES Transactions. Orders for Services shall be subject to additional terms set forth in Appendix B: Supplemental Terms for TI Educational and Professional Development Services.
Buyer may offer to buy Products under these terms by submitting an order to TI. TI may accept or reject any order at TI’s sole discretion.
Where Buyer submits its order through an Online Platform or 1-800-TI-CARES, TI’s order confirmation is for informational purposes only and does not constitute TI’s acceptance of Buyer’s order or confirmation of an offer to sell and/or deliver a Product or Service. For Products, acceptance takes place only when TI either (i) sends a confirmation that a Product has shipped or (ii) sends an express confirmation of acceptance. For Services, acceptance takes place as set forth in Appendix B Supplemental Terms for TI Educational and Professional Development Services.
The terms in this contract and any applicable TI quotation are the sole terms governing TI’s sale or provision of Products and/or Services to Buyer. TI’s acceptance of Buyer’s offer is expressly limited to these terms. TI hereby objects to and rejects any additional or different terms proposed by Buyer, including those contained in Buyer’s purchase order, unless TI expressly agrees to such terms in writing. Capitalized words will have the meaning described in the Glossary of Defined Terms located at the end of this contract.
TI may, at any time prior to accepting Buyer’s offer, decline, reject, cancel, or limit Buyer’s order for any reason, including, without limitation: if a Product or Service is not available; if TI determines a Product has an issue requiring repair; in the event of errors in Product or Service pricing information; or if TI (or its authorized business partners) identify issues relating to credit and fraud avoidance. Should this occur, Buyer will be informed and any payments Buyer has made with respect to such Products or Services, if any, will be refunded to Buyer.
2. Prices.
Where applicable, TI communicates pricing to customers in various ways (e.g., quotes) and confirms transaction prices with its order acknowledgements. Prior to shipment of Product, TI’s price may change due to adjustments in Product features, quantities, shipment arrangements, requested delivery dates, or other changes to conditions. The final price in effect on the date of shipment as stated in TI’s invoice applies. Unless otherwise agreed, prices are in U.S. Dollars and Payment must be in U.S. Dollars.
3. Delivery.
TI will notify Buyer of costs or fees for shipment. Unless TI notifies Buyer otherwise, Product shipments will be delivered FCA (Incoterms 2020) TI’s point of shipment. Risk of loss or damage to Product will pass to Buyer upon TI’s delivery to the TI designated shipping point. Any subsequent loss or damage will not relieve Buyer from its obligations. Buyer is solely responsible for costs of Product freight and insurance after delivery to the TI designated shipping point. If TI incurs freight or insurance costs on Buyer’s behalf, Buyer must promptly reimburse TI for such freight or insurance costs.
Unless TI notifies Buyer otherwise, Buyer is importer of record and is responsible for all import duties, taxes and any other expenses incurred or licenses or clearances required. TI may deliver Products in installments.
Where applicable, TI will communicate to Buyer an Estimated Ship Date. TI will not be liable for any damage, loss, or expense incurred by Buyer if TI fails to meet the Estimated Ship Date.
Unless TI notifies Buyer otherwise, with regard to international shipments that transit through international waters or airspace, title transfers to Buyer immediately after Products leave the jurisdictional territory of TI’s point of shipment. Unless TI notifies Buyer otherwise, with regard to domestic shipments and international shipments that do not transit through international waters or airspace, title transfers upon delivery to Buyer’s carrier or nominee at TI’s point of shipment.
Delivery of Services will be scheduled as set forth by TI in the applicable TI Service quote.
4. Cancellations and Rescheduling.
Orders for Products are non-cancellable and non-reschedulable, unless TI notifies Buyer otherwise.
For Services, Buyer may request to cancel or reschedule orders. TI may permit or reject such request on a case-by-case basis at TI’s sole discretion. Fees for cancelled or rescheduled Services orders will be communicated by TI, if applicable.
5. Payment Terms.
Unless otherwise communicated by TI, Payment is due thirty (30) Days after TI’s invoice date. TI may change or withdraw credit amounts or payment terms at any time for any reason. If Buyer or its affiliate(s) fails to make Payment when due, TI and its affiliates may suspend or cancel performance under any agreements, including delay or cancellation of shipment on any open orders. TI will not be liable for, and Buyer will hold TI harmless from, any costs or losses resulting from suspension or cancellation on account of Buyer’s failure to make Payment. Buyer may not deduct any Payment amounts on account of unresolved disputes. TI may charge Buyer 1.5% per month on overdue accounts (18% per year) to the extent permitted by law.
6. Taxes.
Prices do not include any taxes including, without limitation, sale, value-added tax, goods and services tax or similar taxes. TI will add taxes to the sales price on its invoices where required by applicable law and Buyer will pay such taxes unless Buyer provides TI with a duly executed sales tax exemption certificate before invoicing. If Buyer is required by law to withhold any amount of tax from its Payment to TI, Buyer will take all reasonable steps to minimize such withholding tax, provide TI with a receipt or certificate as evidence the tax has been paid, and reimburse TI for the amount of withholding so that TI receives Payment for the full value of the invoice.
7. Contingencies.
TI will not be in breach of this contract and will not be liable for any non-performance or delay in performance if such non-performance or delay is due to a force majeure event or other circumstances beyond TI’s reasonable control, whether foreseeable or unforeseeable, including but not limited to, shortages of labor, energy, fuel, machinery or materials, technical or yield failures, war, civil unrest, epidemic, pandemic any government act, law or regulation, including any judicial order or decree, any communication or power failure, labor dispute, natural disaster, fire, flood, earthquake, explosion, terrorist act, or Act of God. In the event of a shortage of components, TI may, at its sole discretion, allocate Product production and deliveries.
8. Warranties and Related Remedies.
8.1 TI offers the applicable Product warranty to consumers set forth at the following link:
https://education.ti.com/en/select-country/warranty
8.2 EXCEPT AS SET FORTH ABOVE, PRODUCTS, SERVICES, AND ALL RELATED DOCUMENTATION ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS.” TI DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING SUCH PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
9. Buyer’s Responsibilities.
Buyer assumes all risks related to its use of Products or Services.
10. Intellectual Property Indemnification.
10.1 Subject to Sections 8, 9, 10.2 through 10.5, and 11, TI will defend Buyer against any claim, suit, or proceeding brought against Buyer, insofar as such claim, suit, or proceeding is based on an allegation that Products manufactured and supplied by TI to Buyer directly infringe any United States, Canadian, Japanese, or European Union member country patent (excluding utility models), copyright, or trade secret (“Covered Claim”), and TI will pay any damages, losses, or costs (excluding consequential and exemplary damages) finally awarded against Buyer for a Covered Claim, or agreed to by TI as settlement or compromise of a Covered Claim.
TI has no obligation to defend or indemnify Buyer unless Buyer:
(a) promptly informs TI of the Covered Claim and furnishes TI a copy of the claim, suit, or proceeding,
(b) gives all evidence in Buyer’s possession, custody, or control to TI, and
(c) gives TI reasonable assistance in and sole control of the defense thereof and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise. Buyer agrees to make available to TI the benefit of any defense available to Buyer to any Covered Claim hereunder, including, but not limited to, any license or option to license or sub-license any intellectual property right that is the subject of such Covered Claim. Buyer will be entitled to participate in its defense at its own expense with counsel of its own choosing.
This Section 10.1 does not apply to Services.
10.2 If TI is obligated to defend Buyer pursuant to Section 10, TI may, but has no obligation to:
(a) obtain a license that allows Buyer to continue the use of the Products,
(b) replace or modify the Products so as to be non-infringing, but in a manner that does not materially affect the functionality of such Products, or
(c) if neither (a) nor (b) is available to TI at a commercially reasonable expense, then TI may stop selling the Products to Buyer without being in breach of this contract.
If TI elects to provide either of the options set forth in clauses (a) and (b) above, TI’s obligation pursuant to Section 10.1 will be entirely fulfilled as to that Covered Claim, except for any damages, losses, or costs (excluding consequential and exemplary damages) incurred by Buyer prior to TI taking such action. If TI elects the option set forth in clause (c) above, TI’s indemnity obligation under this contract will be entirely fulfilled, regardless of any additional claims, and Buyer will return to TI any and all Products remaining in Buyer’s possession, custody, or control.
10.3 TI will have no liability or obligation under Sections 10.1 or 10.2:
(a) if Buyer has not purchased the Products subject to the Covered Claim within the thirty-six (36) months preceding the date Buyer informed TI of the Covered Claim,
(b) if Buyer has not fully and promptly paid in full for the Products subject to the Covered Claim,
(c) if the Covered Claim arose because Buyer or Buyer’s customer brought a claim, suit, or proceeding against a third party,
(d) for any costs, losses, or damages resulting from Buyer’s willful acts, or any settlement or compromise incurred or made by Buyer without TI’s prior written consent, and
(e) to the extent that a Covered Claim is based upon:
i. Buyer’s modifications to the Products,
ii. TI’s compliance with Buyer’s particular design, instructions, or specifications, or
iii. TI’s compliance with any industry or proprietary standard.
10.5 THE FOREGOING STATES THE SOLE LIABILITY OF TI FOR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS INFRINGEMENT AND IS IN LIEU OF ALL WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, IN REGARD THERETO.

If TI elects to continue to make shipments of Products or perform Services, TI’s action will not be a waiver of any such default or affect TI’s legal remedies for any such default. Each shipment made under any order will be treated as a separate sale and transaction.
