If order is not released by customer within this 60-day period, it will be priced at discount prevailing at time of shipment.

TAXES:
Any sales, or manufactures’ tax imposed under existing or future statues shall be added to the price herewith effective and shall be paid by the Buyer unless proper exemption certificates are filed with Lighthouse Industries.
