Softline s responsibility for damaged, defective, or non-conforming goods is limited to replacement of goods. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL A CLAIM FOR DAMAGED, DEFECTIVE OR NON-CONFORMING GOODS BE HONORED IF THE GOODS HAVE BEEN CUT. When shipments are made direct to workrooms, it is your responsibility to send a cutting to the workroom to enable them to verify the goods are correct before processing. All authorized returns for damaged fabric will be subject to inspection. Softline will not reimburse customer for any dispute on labor charges once the merchandise has been sent to an outside contractor or sewing facility. Standard to our industry, panel lengths may vary +/-1. Panels that fall within the tolerance will not be accepted for return. ORDER CANCELLATION POLICY ON DRAPERIES. All orders are automatically processed once a Purchase Order is placed and upon confirmation. Purchaser must notify Softline in writing if Purchaser cancels all or part of any order. Although, we understand that orders might need alteration, once orders are placed in production, they incur irreversible fees. Therefore, the Purchaser MAY NOT CANCEL any order if: (1) Softline has started production of goods; (2) If goods have been cut or (3) goods specified in Purchase Order has been shipped. READY-MADE CURTAINS. Be tolerant of small fluctuations in length. No fabric is completely stable. It is reasonable to expect a 3% variance in any drapery length depending on the fabric involved. Drapery fabrics, due to yarn contents, construction, humidity, etc., will expand or contract under certain atmospheric conditions. HANDLOOMED AND NATURAL FIBER FABRICS. Hand-woven and natural fabrics may have slight variations in weave and color that are not to be considered flaws. These variations are inherent to handloom textiles and natural fiber fabrics and are part of their unique character. The characteristic slubs enhance its natural beauty and texture. This texture is produced through a natural processing in carding, spinning and weaving. In many cases, the color is natural and not dyed. Because of variations in dye lots, yarns and weaves, the fabric in stock may vary from shipment to shipment. No guarantees are made regarding colorfastness, fading or exact matching. All measurements quoted for repeats are approximate. Side matching of repeats on ikats, stripes, checks, plaids and ribbed patterns will not be exact. FADING. Our fabrics are not guaranteed against color fading through exposure to the sun or atmospheric conditions. Some colors are more fugitive than others. Colors can fade by oxidation, gas fading, if fabrics are kept in storage for too long a period without airing. Impurities in the air may cause as much fading as the direct rays of the sun. CAUTION. Due to the possibility of differences in dye lots, we recommend that all fabrics required for the project/job be in your procession before any work is started. We do not guarantee to match color. If an exact match is required, a cutting of current stock should be requested. It is understood and accepted by the undersigned applicant that: 1. All open account charges are due and payable Net 30 days. All open accounts shall be deemed delinquent unless paid within thirty days after the open account charge is made. 2. A late charge of 2% per month will be assessed on all invoices not paid according to the specified terms. 3.

Purchaser expressly consents to exclusive venue and jurisdiction of the state courts in or for Los Angeles County, California for any litigation related to this invoice. 4.
