[schedule of computers specifying item, type, model, warranty category, description, quantity, price, and total price]

2. Additional Price Terms. Prices of the machines are FOB Seller's plant. Buyer will pay all transportation, rigging, and draying charges. All taxes, except those based on Seller's net income, will be added to the price of the machines. Buyer will pay any personal property taxes assessable on the machines after delivery to the carrier.

3. Changes in Prices.

a. Increases. Prices of the machines will not be affected by any price increase that takes effect during the three months before the date of shipment of the machines. However, Buyer is subject to all other price increases. If the price of any machine is increased, Buyer may elect to cancel this Agreement, either as it relates to that machine or in its entirety. This cancellation must be made by written notice to Seller sent within [number] days of notification of the price increase. Absent such written cancellation, the higher prices shall be effective.

Such filing, however, does not constitute acceptance of this Agreement by Seller.

This includes damage caused by Buyer's negligence, except for loss or damage caused by nuclear reaction, nuclear radiation, or radioactive contamination caused by Buyer.

Buyer must promptly notify Seller of any change in location of a machine during its period of warranty.
