specified. Typographical, product description, pricing and other errors are subject to correction by Alternative
Security Systems, LTD even after orders and/or payments are accepted. Additionally, Alternative Security Systems, LTD

order, and Customer may either accept Alternative Security Systems, LTD's proposed revision to the order or rescind
the order if such proposed revision is unacceptable. In the event an order is rescinded due to Alternative Security
Systems, LTD's error or pricing adjustment, Alternative Security Systems, LTD will bear all shipping costs and
Customer will receive a full refund for products returned in new condition. Although Internet orders generate an

description or specification after any order confirmation or response e-mail but prior to shipment due to errors,
changing market conditions, product discontinuation or typographical errors.
Customer's Responsibility for Certain Shipping Charges.

company, and Customer refuses the shipment or refuses to pay the applicable shipping charges, Alternative Security
Systems, LTD may bill Customer, and Customer agrees to pay Alternative Security Systems, LTD, for all resulting
charges incurred by Alternative Security Systems, LTD either directly or through its supplier.

delivered to the transportation carrier, and Alternative Security Systems, LTD is not responsible for any loss or
damages to the equipment during shipment. Alternative Security Systems, LTD strongly recommends that Customer obtain
insurance for shipments, as neither Alternative Security Systems, LTD nor its suppliers will insure such shipments.
Alternative Security Systems, LTD will use its best efforts to meet the delivery time stated but does not, under any
circumstances, guarantee delivery by the stated time and is not responsible for any damages caused by the failure to
meet the stated delivery time.

implementation and production schedules. Any requests for modifications shall be subject to Alternative Security
Systems, LTD's acceptance, at prices and scheduling mutually agreeable to the parties.
