part number, quantity
of each product ordered,
the requested shipping
date and destinations
and invoice address. Buyer's
submission of a purchase
order referring to the

such orders. Any substitutions
offered or submitted are
subject to approval unless
otherwise noted.
PRICE
POLICY: Unless
otherwise indicated, the

attached quotation are

the quotation and apply
only to products scheduled

of Buyer's purchase order.
Prices specified as preliminary
are issued for the convenience
of the Buyer and represent
a best estimate, based
on initial analysis of
the Buyer's requirements.
If, after first shipment,
the price appears inappropriate,
STB reserves the right
to issue a new quotation
