1. AGREEMENT: These terms and conditions constitute a sale Agreement between Life Fitness, Brunswick Billiards, Cybex, SCIFIT or Indoor Cycling Group (ICG) (hereinafter collectively referred to as "LF") and Buyer for all products provided by LF to Buyer. No other terms and conditions nor modifications hereof shall be binding upon the parties unless accepted in writing by LF.

2. DELIVERY: LF shall use its best efforts in the ordinary course of business to affect deliveries to Buyer as specified. Depending on the product, lead times may be up to sixteen (16) weeks.  In no event shall LF be liable for any damages, consequential, incidental, liquidated or otherwise, arising from LF’s failure to meet any delivery date. 

3. PARTIAL SHIPMENT: As products ordered by Buyer become available, LF may make partial shipments and each shipment shall be invoiced separately.  Partial shipments shall not relieve Buyer from its obligation to accept shipment of the remainder of the order.

4. RISK OF LOSS: Risk of loss of the products passes to Buyer at the time the products are delivered to the shipping address. 

5. PAYMENT: LF shall invoice Buyer for the purchase price of each of the products shipped and/or services rendered pursuant to this Agreement. The invoice shall be in USD and shall include charges (as applicable) for freight, handling, taxes and other amounts payable to LF. All amounts specified on the invoice shall be paid by Buyer to LF within thirty (30) days from the date of the invoice or pursuant to such other terms as LF may agree.  LF may require payment in advance of all or any part of the purchase price of any product. Payment terms and credit lines are subject to LF’s credit approval. Until LF receives payment in full for the products, Buyer grants LF a security interest in and a lien on all products and, upon request, Buyer may be required to execute UCC statements evidencing LF’s security interest/ lien. Payments not made by Buyer on or before the due date shall bear interest at one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less.  Such interest shall be in addition to and without limitation of any other rights or remedies which LF may have under this Agreement or at law or in equity.  Buyer agrees to pay any attorney's fees and costs incurred by LF in enforcing its rights under this Agreement. Buyer is responsible for all applicable sales, use and/ or excise taxes for the purchase of products.  Taxes are in addition to the sales price.

14. FORCE MAJEURE:  Delay in or failure to carry out the duties imposed upon LF under this Agreement shall not constitute default hereunder or give rise to any claim for damages if such delay or failure results directly or indirectly from acts of God, pandemic or epidemic, diseases, quarantines, unavoidable casualties, concealed conditions, acts of any civil or military authority; riot, insurrections, and civil disturbances; war, invasion, act of foreign enemies, hostilities (regardless of whether or not war is declared), rebellion, revolution,  terrorist activities; strikes, lockouts or other labor disputes; government sanction; embargoes; shortage or unavailability of labor, supplies, materials, equipment or systems; fire, transportation contingencies; laws, statutes, regulations, and other legal requirements, orders or judgments; acts or order of any government or agency or official thereof, other catastrophes or any other similar occurrences beyond such party’s reasonable control, all of the aforesaid being herein for convenience referred to as “events of force majeure.” In the event that LF’s work is delayed or impeded by an event of force majeure, the estimate delivery date shall be extended.  In the event that the product, including shipping, is rendered costlier by an event of force majeure, LF shall provide Buyer with at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice advising Buyer of any price increase and Buyer has the option to terminate this Agreement.  Force majeure delays shall also extend the estimated delivery date on a day by day basis.
