(Applicable to all non-Catella products and to Catella products, where not in conflict with Catella Terms and Conditions of Sale.)

Acceptance of Orders: All orders are subject to acceptance by AMD Technologies, Inc. (AMD), in Los Angeles, CA.  AMD will accept verbal orders. However, the customer agrees that AMD will not be liable for errors of changes made verbally or on Internet submitted purchase orders unless written confirmation is received by AMD from the purchaser prior to shipment of the order of stocked items, or prior to start of production of non-stocked or custom items. All confirmations should be clearly marked: “CONFIRMATION ONLY – DO NOT DUPLICATE”. Orders should include a complete description of the desired items along with the AMD item number. Grid product orders and custom production orders may be accepted via telephone but will not be processed until written confirmation is received.

Terms: AMD accepts payment pursuant to terms agreed to by AMD at time of sale. A finance charge of 1 1/2% per month (18% annual rate) not to exceed the maximum legal rate, will be charged on past due accounts. In any dispute over payment for goods purchased from AMD where it becomes necessary to seek collections, the customer agrees to pay normal and customary collection fees, all reasonable attorney fees and costs, and court costs, together with all attorneys’ fees, costs, and court costs on any appeal. Unless specified in writing, price does not include, 1) freight charges, 2) insurance, and 3) applicable taxes (state, city, county, federal, foreign, etc.), duties and customs charges and expenses, all of which are the responsibility of the customer, whenever charged.

Shipping Dates: Shipping dates are approximate and are based on prompt receipt at the factory of all necessary information from the customer. In case of delay in furnishing complete information, dates of shipment may be extended for a reasonable time based on conditions at the factory or in the supply chain. AMD shall not be liable for loss damage, detention or delay resulting from causes beyond its reasonable control or caused by fire, strike, civil or military authority, insurrection or riot, embargoes, shortages, wrecks, or delays in transportation or because of any priority or preference rating established by any federal, state, or other governmental authority.

Returning Merchandise: If you wish to return merchandise, we must first be contacted in writing. If the return is authorized, we will send you a “RETURN AUTHORIZATION FORM” or ‘RETURN AUTHORIZATION NUMBER” for items on each invoice in question. Except for warranty issues, returns must be made within 30 calendar days of date of the AMD invoice, unless otherwise agreed by AMD. For stock items returned due to no fault of AMD or the manufacturer, a 30% restocking charge or $30.00, whichever is higher, will be made on merchandise returned in saleable condition in its original carton. For non-stock items, AMD will only authorize returns in its sole and absolute discretion, and if it elects to do so, upon such terms as it may decide. It is the customer’s responsibility to clarify at the time of order, which items are stock, non-stock or custom. AMD cannot be responsible for damage that occurs because of poor repackaging by the customer. If an item is returned damaged and, if AMD elects to accept the return, appropriate charges for repairs will be added. AMD reserves the right to refuse any merchandise returned for credit, and any merchandise received by AMD without written authorization will be refused and returned to the sender. No returns will be accepted freight collect. Custom items and grid products are not returnable.

Freight Charges: All prices are FOB origin location and include domestic packaging, unless otherwise stated. Unless detailed shipping instructions are received with each order, AMD will use its discretion as to the shipment method used. Unless otherwise specified on the order and the customer has open credit status with AMD, AMD reserves the right to have shipments made freight charges collect, except for drop shipments or USPS shipments. Prepaid shipping charges will be charged to the customer’s account. Whenever possible, AMD reserves the right to have freight charges billed directly to the customer from the company handling the freight services.

Freight Damage Procedure: AMD products are tested and inspected before final packaging. All shipments leave the factory in good condition. Title to all merchandise passes to the customer at time of shipment and, therefore, any claim of damage in transit must be made promptly by the receiver to the shipper. Liability for merchandise lost or damaged during shipment rests with the purchaser. To expedite and protect yourself, refuse any damaged shipment until the shipper’s representative has inspected the package. Make sure that the damage is recorded on the bill of lading and that the representative signs that document. This procedure will help in obtaining quick reimbursement. Concealed damage must be reported to AMD in writing within 5 days of receipt of goods, with accompanying photos of the product and its packaging. Products accepted by the customer and then returned due to claimed freight damage must be accompanied by the freight company’s inspection report. Without a report that clearly indicates that damage occurred on the outgoing freight trip, credit for freight damage cannot be guaranteed by AMD.

Minimum Invoice: A minimum order of $35.00 is required for processing.

Cancellation: As most items are placed in production and/or shipped within a very short period from the time an order is placed, any cancellation must be made quickly and in writing. Custom and non-stocked orders shipped and/or placed in production are not cancelable. These items are returnable only upon the terms and conditions set forth in the section titled “Returning Merchandise”.

Title: Customer agrees that title and right of possession to any equipment and material covered by this order shall remain with AMD and such equipment and material shall remain the personal property of AMD until all payments hereunder (including deferred payment, whether evidenced by notes and otherwise) shall have been made in full. Customer agrees to do all acts necessary to perfect and maintain such right and title in AMD, consistent with these provisions.

Export Orders: Export orders will be shipped upon receipt of a wire transfer, which is payable in US. dollars through AMD’s designated domestic bank. All orders will be shipped ExW AMD in AMD’ s normal domestic packaging unless otherwise specified and agreed upon in writing by AMD. Export packing, inland trucking, insurance, customs fees, taxes, forwarding and other documentation charges are the responsibility of the customer.

Governing Law and Legal Venue:  The customer agrees that California law, excluding its conflict of laws provisions, governs the sale of any goods or services by AMD and any action arising out of same. The customer further consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in the Southern District of California.

Arbitration: In the event of any disagreement between the parties arising out of this Agreement, if the amount in dispute exceeds the jurisdiction of the Small Claims Court, such disagreement shall be determined by arbitration in accordance with the rules, then pertaining, of the American Arbitration Association and such arbitration ruling shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. Any arbitration will be conducted within the county of Los Angeles in the State of California. In the event either of the parties must resort to legal action or arbitration to enforce or defend the provisions of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of reasonable costs and attorney’s fees.

Customer agrees to do all acts necessary to perfect and maintain such right and title in AMD, consistent with these provisions.

The Software Product includes computer software, the associated media, any printed materials, and any “online” or electronic documentation. By installing, copying, or otherwise using the Software Product, customer and user agree to be bound by the terms of the End-User License Agreement of the software’s manufacturer.

The Software Product is protected by copyright laws and international copyright treaties, as well as other intellectual property laws and treaties. The Software Product is licensed, not sold. This Grant of License grants user the right to use one copy of the Software Product on one computer.  If the computer is connected to a network, this license does not allow user to use the Software Product on other computers on the network. The one exception is the Software Product Component known as Catella Web Viewer which allows image viewing via the Internet. This software can be installed on more than one computer, but access to the images is governed by user certificates. All title and copyrights in and to the Software Product (including but not limited to any images, photographs, animations, video, audio, music, or text incorporated in the Software Product), any accompanying printed or electronic materials, and any copies of the Software Product, are owned by AMD or its suppliers. The user may not copy the instructional materials accompanying the Software Product.

Customer and user may not reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software Product, except and only to the extent that such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law notwithstanding this limitation. Except as noted above, the Software Product is licensed as a single product. Its component parts may not be separated for use on more than one computer. User may permanently transfer all user’s rights under this license only as part of a sale or transfer of the entire product described in this offer, provided user retains no copies, user transfers all the Software Product (including all component parts, the media and printed materials, any upgrades, a copy of this Agreement, and copies of any Catella Web Viewer Product Components installed on other computers, and the recipient agrees to the terms of this Agreement). If the Software Product is an upgrade, any transfer must include all prior versions of the Software Product. Any transferee who receives the Software Product in this manner will not be covered by any warranty or service contract and may be subject to fees for transfer of licenses, configuration, and the like.

Without prejudice to any other rights, AMD may terminate this license if customer or user fails to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In such event, customer and user must destroy all copies of the Software Product and all of its component parts. Network Security: Network and data security, and compliance with all government regulations relating thereto, are the customer’s sole responsibility. Failure to maintain a virus free environment may void all warranties. AMD is not responsible for any damage, loss, or compromise of files or programs due to access of the customer’s network by unauthorized persons or programs. In addition, the customer is solely responsible for keeping the network free of software viruses. Catella systems are not installed with means of detecting or remedying software viruses. AMD recommends that virus protection software be installed and constantly upgraded on all computers and networks running Catella programs. PACS equipment should only be used for purposes for which it was purchased. No equipment should have dual purposes, such as Internet connection for other business or personal use. This kind of dual use opens up the entire network to virus attacks. Along with vigorous virus systems protection, firewalls and other related specific hardware and software, strong business policies that restrict use of this equipment solely for its intended purposes add an important level of protection.

Site Planning and Preparation: Careful pre-planning and the communication regarding customer’s and end user’s workflow with AMD will help assure a smooth installation, training period and transition. Please remember that AMD staff is available to help with this planning and can offer advice in each of the areas listed below. Prior to and during installation, the customer is responsible for the following items:

  • Prepare a site map.
  • Procure proper and protected electrical service for all equipment and equipment locations. (Dedicated circuits may be appropriate.)
  • Select and procure specified battery back-up and surge protection for each piece of equipment.
  • Complete all cabling and wiring.
  • Procure and install all communication services (if applicable).
  • Complete proper network setup, if AMD items are to be added to a network, including TCP/IP addresses and other such items.
  • Complete a list of other equipment that will be connected to Catella products.
  • Clear work areas and areas where equipment will be installed. Furniture, equipment, or other physical items must be moved prior to any equipment installation date. AMD installers will not move customer’s property. A security area should be provided to hold equipment delivered to the customer that has not yet been installed.

Maps and lists of specific items completed on this list should be sent to AMD at least 30 days prior to installation.

Catella Workstations are DICOM 3.0 compliant products and should be able to connect with other DICOM 3.0 compatible devices. However, since there are many different implementations of DICOM, it is likely that a small amount of “tweaking” will be required to connect to a device. If all devices are available during installation, interconnection should be able to be completed during this time. If new devices are added later or some devices are not available for testing during installation, then additional, chargeable installation service may be required. Any additional charges due to the need to upgrade or adjust customer’s or user’s equipment to connect to Catella products requiring non-AMD personnel are the sole responsibility of the customer.

During Installation: There shall be 24 hour a day physical access to installation sites and/or 24 hour a day electronic access via the Internet to the network during installation periods. Key customer decision making personnel should be available between 8:00AM and 6:00PM during installation days to test, make decisions and problem solve.

Modifications: Any unauthorized hardware/software modifications may cause problems that will be corrected (if possible) at customer’s expense. Specifically, most Windows compatible programs cannot be run at the same time as some Catella software without significantly degrading the image quality and response time.

Once installation begins, change orders for the plan may result in additional charges. Installers will consult with the customer, and AMD managers, and will require a signed change order from the customer prior to commencing any new work. In addition to material and programming charges, housing, travel, and meal charges may be incurred. Change orders may also affect the completion date of the installation.Please Note: Prices & Specifications subject to change without notice.
