the Buyer in U.S. dollars.

PAYMENT TERMS

:  Full payment for the goods shall be due within 30 days

any late payment from the due date at the highest rate permitted by law.

Buyer shall repay ESPEC all attorney’s fees ESPEC incurs collecting late
payments or unpaid accounts.

LIMITED WARRANTY

:  A limited warranty is given by ESPEC to the original

buyer of new ESPEC equipment.  Subject to the conditions and limitations
below, ESPEC warrants that the equipment manufactured by ESPEC is free
from defects in material and workmanship which would render the equipment
unfit for normal and recommended use.

This limited warranty is effective only for the 360 days after the date of
shipment..  During this period, ESPEC will provide repaired or replacement parts 
without charge.  This warranty covers all components, labor, installation and
associated expenses for the replacement parts, subject to the exceptions below.

This limited warranty does not cover:

1)

Parts, labor and installation for the following components:  light
bulbs, port plugs, fuses, deionizer cartridges, wiper blades, plug-in
relays, wick socks, water filters, plug-in timers, fasteners, recorder 
pens, chart paper, nor water level, flow regulated or height level
adjustments.

2)

Defects or damages arising as the result of shipment by common 
carriers or private transportation unless ESPEC contractually
assumes the risk of damage to the equipment during shipment.

3)

Defects, damages or malfunctions caused by parties other than
ESPEC, including but not limited to defects, damages or
malfunctions arising as the result of improper utilities, mishandling, 
modification, abuse, misuse, neglect, intentional damage, improper 
repair, loss of refrigerant or improper maintenance, start-up or
installation of the equipment.

4)

Defects or damages arising as the result of accident, flood, fire,
earthquake or other act of God.

This is the EXCLUSIVE remedy as between you and the Company with respect 
to the equipment provided to you, and ESPEC SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR
LOSS OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY INCLUDING LOSS OR DAMAGE
CAUSED BY FIRE OR EXPLOSION OR FOR ANY ASSOCIATED INCIDENTAL 
OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS OR EXPENSE, due directly or indirectly to the
use of the equipment.

America and a 150 mile radius from the following Canadian cities; Vancouver,

INDEMNIFICATION

:  Buyer shall defend, indemnify and hold seller harmless

from and against all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, settlement expenses,
and/or attorney’s fees, for injury or death of any person and/or the damage or
loss of any property allegedly or actually resulting from or arising out of the use 
or failure of the equipment unless such losses are solely and completely the
result of ESPEC’s negligence.  Without limiting the foregoing in any respect,
Buyer’s indemnification duty shall arise out of any misuse of the equipment or
any other negligent or wrongful act or omission of the Buyer or its employees, 
agents, and/or subcontractors, or any person or entity who purchases or gains 
access to the equipment through the Buyer whether or not ESPEC or any other 
person or entity is jointly negligent in the design, manufacture, instruction,
training, provision of warnings, selection, delivery, repair, maintenance,
possession, use, operation or return of the equipment.

DELIVERY/RISK OR LOSS

:  The risk of loss with respect to the goods to be

sold will pass to the Buyer at ESPEC’s plant upon the delivery of the goods
alongside the designated carrier; and all shipping costs, losses, liabilities and
damages and all insurance and delivery obligations with respect to the goods
once delivered by ESPEC alongside the carrier at ESPEC’s plant, are the
Buyer’s risk and responsibility, although ESPEC will give reasonable assistance 
to the Buyer in tendering claims to the carrier.

GOVERNING LAW

:  Any offer made by ESPEC or any contract entered into by 

ESPEC and the Buyer shall be construed and interpreted only according to the 
laws of the State of Michigan, U.S.A., including without limitation, the Uniform
Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Michigan, U.S.A. In that regard,
Buyer and Seller specifically agree and acknowledge that the provisions of the
United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall 
not apply to the rights and obligations of the parties under the Contract.
