which are implied by trade, custom, practice or course of dealing. These Terms and Conditions of sale shall be considered accepted and acknowledged by the signing of this application form, the placing of an Order, the signing and returning of a pro-forma invoice or the acceptance of a delivered Product and/or Services, whichever occurs first.

3.4 Any samples, drawings, descriptive matter or advertising issued by Logicom and any descriptions of the Products or illustrations or descriptions of the Services contained in Logicom’s or Vendor’s catalogues or brochures are issued or published for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Services and/or Products described therein.

INCENTIVES ADDENDUM
INCENTIVE TERMS SHEET
The General Terms of Logicom are incorporated by reference to this terms sheet. Terms not otherwise defined in this terms sheet shall have the meaning attributed to them in the General Terms.
1 Incentives
1.1 Logicom may process with the Vendor a request for a rebate, fee, discount, price or other benefit or compensation on a specific End User transaction (the “Incentive”) on the request of a Reseller (the “Incentive Request”). The Incentive will be processed by Logicom based on the information provided by the Reseller. An Incentive, and the terms applicable to an Incentive, is/are confidential information. If the Incentive is approved, then the price provided by Logicom to the Reseller shall only be valid for the applicable Incentive, and its validity shall be subject to the dedicated terms stated in the Incentive Addendum.
1.2 If the information provided in the Incentive Request changes, Reseller must immediately notify Logicom. In such event, Logicom reserves the right to modify the terms of, or cancel any Incentive authorization it may have provided to the manufacturer. If the Reseller fails to provide truthful and accurate information on the Incentive Request, then Logicom shall be entitled to recover from the Reseller (and the Reseller shall be obliged to repay forthwith) the amount of any discounts Logicom provided through the Incentive and take any other actions it may deem necessary.
1.3 Reseller accepts the terms of the Incentive by: (a) submitting a request for an Incentive; (b) accepting the Products or Services for which Reseller is receiving an Incentive; (c) providing the Products or Services to the Reseller’s customers; or (d) paying for the Products or Services.
1.4 The Incentive for eligible Products or Services is subject to the following: (a) no other discounts, incentive offerings, rebates, or promotions apply, unless Logicom specifies otherwise in writing; (b) availability of the Products or Services; (c) Reseller’s acceptance of the additional terms and conditions applicable to the Incentive (which occurs upon Reseller’s acceptance of the Incentive, as set forth above) (the “Incentive Addendum”); (d) Reseller advising the local Logicom financing entity/organization of any Incentive pricing for any Products or Services for which Reseller arranges financing; and (e) resale of the Products or Services to the End User associated with the Incentive by the date indicated in the Incentive Request.
1.5 Reseller may only market the Products and Services to the person (End User or reseller) the Reseller has identified in, and for the End User transaction specified in, the Incentive Request. Where applicable, the Reseller shall be responsible to require resellers who do not have a contract with Logicom to market Product or Services subject to the Incentive in compliance with these terms. If the Reseller is requesting a specific End User price or discount in the Incentive, Reseller shall ensure that the intended End User receives the financial benefit of such price or discount.
1.6 For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Incentive Addendum shall restrict or preclude the Reseller in offering any other or further incentives, discounts or rebates as per its own commercial policy on top of the Incentives received from the Vendor.
2 Audit of Incentives
2.1 The Reseller shall keep and maintain all records necessary to establish its compliance with the Incentive for at least three years after the Incentive’s end date. Logicom (or its auditor, or the Vendor or its auditor) may periodically audit any Incentive transactions remotely, or on site the Resellers premises during normal business hours, or a combination thereof. Logicom may reproduce and retain copies of such records and system tools output.
2.2 In connection with any such review, Reseller agrees to promptly provide Logicom (or it’s auditor, or the Vendor or its auditor) with relevant records, documentation and system tools output to enable Logicom to verify that all information provided in support of an Incentive request was truthful and accurate and that the Products and Services have been or will be supplied to the End User in accordance with the terms of the Incentive and the Incentive Request, including, but not limited to: (i) documentation that identifies the dates of sale and delivery and End User prices for Logicom Products and Services, such as invoices, delivery orders, contracts and purchase orders by and between Reseller and an End User and (b) documentation that demonstrates that the Reseller, own and use the Incentive Products for at least the Service Period to provide the service offering described in the terms of the Incentive to End Users (the “Documentation”).
2.3 In any case where Reseller is unable to provide the Documentation because of confidentiality obligations owed to an End User, whether arising by written contract or applicable law, Reseller will promptly provide Logicom with written evidence of, and any Documentation not subject to, those obligations. In addition, Reseller will promptly and in writing seek the End User’s consent to waive confidentiality restrictions to permit Logicom to conduct its audit as intended. Should the End User refuse to grant that consent, Reseller will i) provide Logicom with a copy of the waiver request and written proof of that refusal and ii) identify appropriate contacts at the End User with whom Logicom may elect to discuss the refusal.
2.4 Reseller hereby waives any objection to (i) Logicom or the Vendor sharing Incentive information directly with the End User, notwithstanding the terms of any agreement that would prohibit Logicom or the Vendor from doing so, and otherwise communicating (both orally and in writing) with the End User, as Logicom deems necessary and appropriate to complete its desired compliance review and (ii) the End User sharing Incentive information directly with Logicom or the Vendor. Incentive information includes, but is not limited to, the types and quantity of Products and anticipated End User prices which shall not exceed maximum indicated price as determined by Vendor and delivery dates set forth in an Incentive.
2.5 If, during any such review, it is determined that the Reseller has failed to comply with any material term of the Incentive, in addition to any other rights and remedies Logicom may have, Logicom or the Vendor may decide to implement one or more of the following remedies, with immediate effect or with advance notice: (a) terminate the Incentive; (b) exclude the Reseller from the Incentive and any future Incentives (c) for transactions that are the subject of the breach, request the immediate refund (and the Reseller is obligated to refund) of an amount equal to the discount or fees, if any, that Logicom provided to the Reseller for the applicable Products or Services through the Incentive.
3 Liability
3.1 Logicom’s entire liability for all claims related to the Incentive will not exceed the amount of any actual direct damages incurred by the Reseller up to the amounts paid for the Product or Service that is/are the subject to the Incentive, regardless of the basis of the claim. This limit applies collectively to Logicom, its subsidiaries, contractors, and suppliers. Logicom will not be liable for special, incidental, exemplary, indirect, or economic consequential damages, or lost profits, business, value, revenue, goodwill, or anticipated savings.
3.2 In addition to damages for which the Reseller may be liable under applicable law or the Incentive, Reseller will defend, indemnify and hold Logicom harmless against, and with respect to, all third-party claims, including any government fines or penalties, arising from the Reseller’s (a) conduct under, or noncompliance with, the Incentive, or the Incentive Request or the Incentive Addendum; (b) relationship with any third party, (c) representations, statements, claims or warranties not authorized by Logicom.
