Purchase Order – Terms & Conditions – U.S.

  1. ACCEPTANCE: By signing or accepting a TelevisaUnivision, Inc. or any of its affiliates’ (“TU”) Purchase Order, the Seller agrees to these Purchase Order Terms and Conditions and the schedule of items (collectively referred to as the “Order”). Seller’s performance under this Order, even without written acknowledgment, constitutes acceptance. For ongoing services beyond product delivery and installation, Seller acknowledges the need for a separate written agreement with TU. This Order does not constitute acceptance of any offer, quotation, or proposal from the Seller. Any provisions on Seller’s website or other documents have no effect and are governed by this Order. Modifications to this Order require written agreement between authorized representatives of TU and Seller.
  2. DEFAULT: Time is of the essence. TU has the right to terminate all or part of the Order under the following circumstances: (i) Seller’s failure to perform within the specified time or agreed extensions, or (ii) Seller’s failure to perform under any provision or make sufficient progress that jeopardizes Order fulfillment. If Seller fails to rectify the failure within five days or as authorized by TU, Seller will be liable for excess costs to replace or supplement the Order. Alternatively, TU may, at its discretion, extend the delivery schedule or waive deficiencies in performance, resulting in a negotiated price reduction. Seller must promptly notify TU in writing and provide suitable alternatives if difficulties in delivery or meeting requirements arise. Failure to comply with the agreed delivery schedule may require the Seller to cover charges for expedited delivery. The remedies provided by TU in this section are not exclusive and additional rights and remedies under the Uniform Commercial Code, law, equity, or this Order may apply.
  3. PRICE AND PAYMENT: If no price is specified in the Order, the products will be billed at the lower of the last quoted price or the prevailing market price, whichever is lower. Payment terms, including invoicing and payment due dates, will be as outlined in the Order or, if not outlined in the Order, will be made no later than 90 calendar days after TU receives an undisputed invoice. Payment is subject to satisfactory delivery and acceptance of the goods or completion of the services. TU reserves the right to offset any amounts owed by Seller against any payments due to Seller. Seller must obtain written agreement from TU for any additional charges.
  4. TAXES: All payments under this Order are exclusive of taxes. Each party is responsible for paying applicable taxes, duties, and governmental charges separately. If a party is required to collect and remit sales taxes, VAT, or other applicable taxes, they will fulfill those obligations. If a party is required to deduct or withhold taxes, they will do so and provide the remaining net amount after tax deduction to the other party. Both parties will cooperate in providing necessary tax documentation for payment processing.
  5. INSPECTION: Products are subject to inspection and testing by TU, including prior to final acceptance. Prompt acceptance or rejection will be conducted following delivery, unless otherwise specified. TU’s failure to inspect or detect defects does not release Seller from responsibility or impose additional obligations on TU. Seller must maintain an acceptable inspection and process control system for the ordered products. Inspection records must be kept and accessible to TU during and after completion of the Order. If any products are found defective or non-conforming, TU may reject and return them at Seller’s expense, request inspection and removal of non-conforming products, or require their replacement. If Seller fails to comply, TU may conduct inspection and sorting, with related costs payable by Seller.
  6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES: Seller represents and warrants that all products are free from third-party claims, and clear title will be conveyed to TU. Seller further warrants that the products are merchantable, fit for their intended purposes, and comply with approved requirements. Any attempt to limit or disclaim these warranties without TU’s written consent is null and void. Seller must take reasonable precautions to prevent accidents and is fully responsible for any injuries, damages, or losses incurred. Seller’s insurance carriers waive subrogation rights for the mentioned properties.
  7. TU’S PROPERTY: Tangible or intangible Property provided by TU remains the exclusive property of TU and should be used solely for TU-related purposes. Seller must clearly mark or identify each item as “Property of TelevisaUnivision” whenever possible. Seller must not substitute TU’s property or take actions conflicting with TU’s ownership. Seller is responsible for the safekeeping and insurance of TU’s property at its own cost. TU may request the return of its property, and Seller must prepare and return it in the same condition, except for reasonable wear and tear, at Seller’s expense.
  8. CHANGES: TU has the right to modify this Order, including configurations, specifications, quantities, shipment methods, packing, delivery schedules, and locations, before Seller’s delivery. If such changes affect the cost or time of delivery, an equitable adjustment will be made to the fee or delivery schedule. Seller must proceed with the changed Order and submit any adjustment claims in writing within five days of receiving notification of the change. Seller’s notification of personnel conduct changes must be promptly communicated to TU’s Procurement Department, subject to this section. Technical information or guidance provided by TU representatives does not constitute a change under this section.
  9. COMPLIANCE: Seller represents, warrants, and covenants that:
    1. It acknowledges and agrees that it has read and understood, and will comply with, the TU Code of Conduct for Sellers and Business Partners available at https://corporate.televisaunivision.com/suppliers/.

TU may, in addition to its other rights and remedies, immediately terminate this Order if TU receives any information which it in good faith determines, in its sole discretion, to be evidence of an actual, alleged, possible or potential breach by Seller of any representation, warranty, or covenant in this paragraph.  In the event of such termination, TU will have no liability to Seller for any charges, fees, reimbursements, or other compensation or claims under this Agreement, including for services previously performed. “Anti-Corruption Laws” means: (i) the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; (ii) the Mexican Federal and State Criminal Codes, the General Law of Administrative Responsibility, the 2019 Agreement; and (iii) any other applicable anti-corruption, anti-money laundering, or financial crime prevention laws.
