may at its option, in addition to any other remedies, cancel any unshipped portion of this order, Buyer
to remain liable for all unpaid accounts. In the event BUYER fails to make payment in accordance
with the terms of this agreement, the account shall be deemed to be delinquent and a service

Buyer agrees to pay all collection costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred
by Seller in collecting or attempting to collect such account.

products purchased by Buyer from Seller, and the proceeds thereof, to secure the payment of the
purchase price by Buyer to Seller.
Freight and Handling. Unless otherwise provided in writing, freight charges on all shipments, and

shipments from Seller to Buyer shall be borne by Buyer. Any difference in the amount of freight from
that shown on the face hereof as being included is for Buyer’s account. Seller reserves the right to
designate origin and intermediate carriers. If a specific delivering carrier is required, Buyer must
designate such carrier in writing to Seller prior to shipment.
