1. Applicability. These Terms and Conditions of Sale (“Terms”), apply to all sales of product and related services (“Goods”) by KYADTA Building Supplies, LLC, (“Seller”) to the buyer of such Goods (“Buyer”) who has notice of these terms, however gained, including the use of Seller’s website, with these Terms being set forth at https://kyadta.com/terms-and-conditions/. These Terms,
together with those contained in any quotation, estimate or sales contract of Seller (“Sale Contract”), constitute the entire agreement (the “Agreement”) between the parties regarding the Goods, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, negotiations, representations and warranties, and communications, both written and oral. To the extent Buyer’s purchase order or any other statement of Buyer contains any terms or conditions in addition to or different from the terms of this Agreement, such terms and conditions are hereby rejected by Seller and hereby waived by Buyer and such terms and conditions shall not affect this Agreement nor be binding upon Seller absent an express written statement by Seller to the contrary. This Agreement may only be amended or modified in a writing which specifically states that it amends this Agreement and is signed by an authorized representative of each party. Seller’s fulfillment of Buyer’s order does not constitute acceptance of any of Buyer’s terms and conditions and does not serve to modify or amend these Terms. Buyer’s written acknowledgment of a Sale Contract or commencement of performance, including Buyer’s use of or payment for any Goods provided by Seller, will constitute acceptance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
2. Noncancellable. All Sale Contracts are noncancellable by Buyer and any payments made thereunder are nonrefundable.
3. Shipping and Delivery. (a) The Goods will be delivered within a reasonable time after Seller’s receipt of Buyer’s signed or approved Sale Contract, subject to availability of finished Goods. Any delivery date set forth in the Sale Contract is an estimate only and is not guaranteed by Seller. Seller shall not be liable for any damage or losses due to delayed delivery. (b) Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties, Seller shall, using Seller’s standard methods for packaging and shipping of such Goods, deliver the Goods to Buyer’s address listed in the Sale Contract (the “Delivery Point”), with delivery being Free on Board (FOB) at the Delivery Point, and Buyer shall take delivery of the Goods immediately upon delivery of the Goods to the Delivery Point. Buyer shall be responsible for all loading and unloading of the Goods at the Delivery Point, for all loading and unloading costs, and for providing equipment and labor reasonably suited for receipt of the Goods at the Delivery Point. (c) Seller may, in its sole discretion, without liability or penalty, make partial shipments of Goods to Buyer. Each shipment will constitute a separate sale, and Buyer shall pay for the Goods shipped whether such shipment is in whole or partial fulfillment of the Sale Contract. (d) If for any reason Buyer fails to accept delivery of any of the Goods on the date fixed pursuant to Seller’s notice that the Goods have been delivered at the Delivery Point, or if Seller is unable to deliver the Goods at the Delivery Point on such date because Buyer has not provided appropriate instructions, documents, licenses or authorizations,the (i) risk of loss to the Goods shall pass to Buyer; (ii) the Goods shall be deemed to have been delivered; and (iii) Seller, at its option, may store the Goods until Buyer picks them up, whereupon Buyer shall be liable for all related costs and expenses (including, without limitation, storage, and insurance).
4. Title and Risk of Loss. Title and risk of loss pass to Buyer upon delivery of the Goods at the Delivery Point. As collateral security for the payment of the Price (defined below) of the Goods, Buyer hereby grants to Seller a lien on and security interest in and to all of the right, title and interest of Buyer in, to, and under the Goods, wherever located, and whether now existing or hereafter arising or acquired from time to time, and in all accessions thereto and replacements or modifications thereof, as well as all proceeds (including insurance proceeds) of the foregoing. The security interest granted under this provision constitutes a purchase money security interest under the Iowa Uniform Commercial Code.
5. Inspection and Acceptance. (a) Buyer shall promptly inspect the Goods upon delivery at the Delivery Point and notify Seller within a reasonable time, which shall be no more than two (2) hours after delivery of the Goods (“Inspection Period”), of any discrepancies in quantity or other failures to conform to this Agreement. Buyer will be deemed to have irrevocably accepted the Goods unless it notifies Seller in writing of any failure to delivery or Nonconforming Goods during the Inspection Period and furnishes such written evidence or other documentation as reasonably required by Seller.
(b) If Seller delivers to Buyer a quantity of Goods of up to twenty percent (20%) more or less than the quantity set forth in the Sale Contract, Buyer shall not be entitled to object to or reject the Goods or any portion of them by reason of the surplus or shortfall and shall pay for such Goods at the Prices set forth in the Sale Contract, adjusted pro rata. The quantity of any installment of Goods as recorded by Seller on dispatch from Seller’s place of business is conclusive evidence of the quantity received by Buyer on delivery unless Buyer can provide conclusive evidence proving the contrary. Seller shall not be liable for any non-delivery of Goods (even if caused by Seller’s negligence) unless Buyer gives written notice to Seller of the non-delivery within the Inspection Period. Any liability of Seller for nondelivery of the Goods shall be limited to replacing the Goods within a reasonable time or adjusting the invoice regarding such Goods to reflect the actual quantity delivered. The remedies set forth in this paragraph are Buyer’s exclusive remedies for non-delivery of the Goods.
(c) “Nonconforming Goods” means only the following: (i) the product shipped is different than the Goods identified in the Sale Contract; or (ii) the label or packaging of the Goods incorrectly identifies its contents. If Buyer timely notifies Seller of any Nonconforming Goods, Seller shall, in its sole discretion, replace such Nonconforming Goods with conforming Goods, or credit or Page 2 (Rev. 8-2025) refund the Price for such Nonconforming Goods, together with any reasonable shipping and handling expenses incurred by Buyer in connection therewith. Buyer shall ship, at its expense and risk of loss, the Nonconforming Goods to Seller at the address to be provided by Seller upon request. If Seller exercises its option to replace Nonconforming Goods, Seller shall, after receiving Buyer’s shipment ofNonconforming Goods, ship to Buyer, at Buyer’s expense and risk of loss, the replaced Goods to the Delivery Point. The remedies set forth in this Section 5(c) are Buyer’s exclusive remedies for the delivery of Nonconforming Goods. Except

Buyer shall provideSeller with a currently valid exemption for all sales claimed tax exempt. (c) Except as otherwise expressly noted in the Sale Contract, all Prices include freight and shipping/transportation costs. (d) Prices, including quoted prices and accepted orders, are subject to revision by Seller at any time to adjust for increases in Seller’s costs, including due to the costs of raw material, costs to purchase the Goods, transportation costs, changes in laws or regulations, and changes in governmental fees and taxes (including duties and tariffs).
7. Payment Terms. (a) Unless provided otherwise in the Sale Contract, payment of the Price, and any other amounts incurred by Seller on behalf of Buyer, shall be due in full on receipt of Seller’s invoice. (b) Buyer shall not withhold payment of any amounts due and payable by reason of any set-off of any claim or dispute with Seller, whether relating to Seller’s breach, bankruptcy, or otherwise. (c) Buyer shall pay interest on all late payments at the lesser of the rate of 1.5% per month (18% per annum) or the highest rate permissible under applicable law, calculated daily and compounded monthly. Buyer shall reimburse Seller for all costs incurred in collecting any late payments or in otherwise enforcing this Agreement, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, court costs, and expert/consultant costs and including all attorney fees and costs incurred pre-litigation/arbitration, on appeal, and in post-judgment execution efforts. In addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement or at law (which Seller does not waive by the exercise of any rights hereunder), if in Seller’s sole judgment, Buyer’s financial condition or any other circumstance causes Seller to be insecure with respect to Buyer’s performance of any obligation under this Agreement, Seller may accelerate and demand immediate payment of any amounts owed Seller, suspend performance, cancel a Sale Contract, or require cash payment or satisfactory security before shipment

11. Waiver. No waiver by Seller of any of the provisions of this Agreement is effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by Seller. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement operates or may be construed, as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder precludes any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.
12. Confidential Information. All non-public, confidential or proprietary information of Seller, including but not limited to specifications, samples, patterns, designs, plans, drawings, documents, data, business operations, customer lists, pricing, discounts, or rebates, disclosed by Seller to Buyer, whether disclosed orally or disclosed or accessed in written, electronic or other form or media, and whether or not marked, designated or otherwise identified as “confidential” in connection with this Agreement is confidential, solely for the use of performing this Agreement and may not be disclosed or copied unless authorized in advance by Seller in writing.

For avoidance of doubt, this restriction shall not apply to general advertising not specifically directed at any Restricted Employee. Buyer acknowledges by accepting this Agreement that, by way of this provision, Seller has informed Buyer that Restricted Employees may have certain restrictive covenant or other obligations to Seller. This provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent allowed by law. Therefore, if a final, non-appealable judgment of a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction (“Judicial Authority”) determines that any part of this restriction is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree that: (i) such provisions shall be rendered invalid, unenforceable, or void only to the extent that such final, non-appealable determination of such Judicial Authority finds such provision unreasonable or otherwise unenforceable; and (ii) the court or tribunal (or arbitrator) making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability will have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or geographic area or the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision. This Agreement will be deemed amended and enforceable within the jurisdiction of such Judicial Authority as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed and this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, as originally drafted, in all other jurisdictions. This Section is reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve Seller’s legitimate business interests and to prevent any unfair advantage conferred on Buyer.
15. Indemnification. Buyer shall indemnify, protect, defend (at Buyer’s expense and with counsel reasonably acceptable to Seller), and hold harmless the Seller and its respective affiliate companies, officers, employees, subcontractors, suppliers, and other agents (“Indemnified Parties”), from and against all claims, losses, causes of actions, judgments, attorneys’ fees, costs, compensatory damages, punitive damages, and other damages regarding any personal injury, death, or property damage (hereinafter referred to together as “Claims”), to the extent the Claims arise from any negligent or intentional/willful act, misconduct or inaction/omission; any breach or default of this Agreement; any breach of any other duty or obligation; or any other violation of law by Buyer and/or its agents and to the extent the Claims are not the sole result of the negligence of Seller.
16. Assignment. Buyer shall not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Seller. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section is null and void. No assignment or delegation relieves Buyer of any of its obligations under this Agreement.
17. Relationship of the Parties. The relationship between the parties is that of independent contractors. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as creating any agency, partnership, joint venture, or other form of joint enterprise, employment or fiduciary relationship between the parties, and neither party shall have authority to contract for or bind the other party in any manner whatsoever

The Parties agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) do not apply to this Agreement.
20. Submission to Jurisdiction. All claims, controversies, and disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Goods shall be subject to arbitration in Des Moines, Iowa. The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Construction Industry Arbitration Rules in effect on the Effective Date. The award rendered by the arbitrator(s) shall be final, and judgment may be entered upon it in accordance with applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller, in its sole discretion, may bring its claim(s), including third-party claims or claims for enforcement of Buyer’s non-solicitation/non-recruitment obligations under Section 13, against Buyer in the Iowa district court located in Polk County, with a judge, and not a jury, presiding over such claim. Both parties knowingly and voluntarily waive all right to trial by jury in any action relating to the Agreement or Goods.
