Unless otherwise specified, prices exclude all sales, use, excise, value-added, and other taxes, and all duties, customs, import charges, and fees imposed with respect to the sale, shipment, delivery, or use of any products or services provided by Seller; and all such taxes, duties, and fees, where applicable, must be paid by Buyer.
