General conditions for the supply of goods and/or services
- Introduction
1.1 The General Conditions for the Supply of Goods and/or Services (“CGF”) apply to the purchases, contracting and/or transactions of goods and/or services (“Supply”) from a supplying party (“Supplier”) to the company AGRIVALLE BRASIL INDUSTRIA E COMERCIO DE PRODUTOS AGRÍCOLAS S.A. (“Agrivalle”) and/or any other company, fund or company that, directly or indirectly, control, is controlled by it or is under common control with it, including affiliates and affiliates (“Affiliates”) and constitute an integral and inseparable part of the respective purchase order (“Purchase Order”), superseding any prior understandings between the Parties and any other conditions presented by the Supplier. Only these GTC, the provisions contained in the respective Purchase Order and any other documents referenced in the Purchase Order are binding on Agrivalle. Agrivalle and the Supplier are, for the purposes of the GTC, hereinafter jointly referred to as the “Parties” and individually the “Party”. The provisions of this GTF shall prevail over any others that conflict with or are incompatible with them, including those of the Purchase Order and the Proposal. In the event of a divergence between the provisions contained in the Purchase Order and the Proposal, the provisions of the Purchase Order shall prevail. The applicability of the CGF is excepted in the event of a specific contract entered into between the Parties, in which the latter will prevail.
1.2. This GTF establishes the clauses and conditions that must be observed by the Parties when (and if) they actually contract a Supply. Thus, once a Supply has been agreed, the clauses and conditions of these GTC will govern the respective legal relationship established between the Parties, regardless of any other formality. For this reason, and as a condition for the execution of these GTC, it is hereby established that it does not ensure any exclusive right to the Supplier, as well as does not generate a right or even expectation of right to any of the Parties, of any kind and nature, as a result of which, if a Purchase Order is not formalized and accepted, nothing shall be due from one Party to the other in any capacity.
- Accepted
2.1. Acceptance of these GTC by the Supplier shall take place by agreement to the respective written Purchase Order to Agrivalle or shall be deemed tacitly accepted by the Supplier in the event of commencement of the Supply, whichever occurs first. Partial acceptance is prohibited.
2.1.1. The Supplier may not commence the Supply prior to its acceptance of the Purchase Order.
2.1.2. Tacit acceptance of a Supply in which there is Agrivalle’s authorization to advance the Price to the Supplier.
2.1.3. In the event of tacit acceptance by the Supplier, Agrivalle may cancel the Purchase Order at any time, provided that the Supply has not commenced, without any burden or penalty to Agrivalle for this act.
2.2. If the Supplier disputes these GTC, it shall not initiate the Supply. If you start the Supply, the Purchase Order and these GTC will be deemed accepted and the dispute retracted.
2.3. The Purchase Order, its acceptance, these GTC and the performance of the Supply constitute the entire contract between Agrivalle and the Supplier.
- Validity and Amendment of the GTCs
3.1. These GTC come into force upon and upon their acceptance by the Supplier, as per item 2 above, and will be in force until full compliance with the obligations assumed by the Parties in the respective Purchase Order.
3.2. Agrivalle may amend, at any time, these GTC, aiming at their improvement and to comply with the legislation and its internal policies. In this case, the new CGF will be registered in a notary’s office and/or published on Agrivalle’s website: www.agrivalle.com.br.
- Price and Payment
4.1. The prices of the products and/or services specified in the Purchase Order are fixed, certain, determined and comprise all direct and indirect expenses and charges of any nature, including, without limitation, those related to their transportation, costs, storage, fees, taxes, contributions, tariffs, emoluments (“Price”), unless otherwise agreed in the respective Purchase Order. Any adjustment or increase in the Prices may only be made with the prior, express and written approval of Agrivalle.</span’s Purchasing area>
4.1.1. In the event that the Purchase Order establishes unit prices and only a global estimate of the value of the Supply (for reference only), any additional services requested by Agrivalle or any variation up or down in relation to the estimated global value shall not change the unit price provided for in the Purchase Order.
4.1.2. When authorized by the Purchasing area, the exception of what is provided for in caput, regarding the possibility of passing on any expenses with travel, tolls, lodging, food, parking, among others, such expenses will still depend on prior written authorization from the manager of the area responsible for the contract at Agrivalle.
4.2. If any error and/or disagreement of the invoices/invoices with the provisions of these GTC and the Purchase Order is found, the invoices will be refused and the respective payments will be suspended until their effective correction, without this implying the interruption of the Supply. Delay in the delivery of regular invoices by the Supplier may result in an equivalent delay in payment of the Price, without this implying any additional charge for Agrivalle.
4.2.1. If Agrivalle finds any irregularity in the payment already made, it may choose to deduct this amount from the next payment or notify the Supplier so that it can refund the amounts overpaid, which the Supplier must do within three (3) business days from the date of receipt of the notification in question.
4.3.The partial or total payment of the Price, as the case may be, will only be made by deposit/bank transfer in a current account held by the Supplier and/or bank slip (the latter, only when authorized by Agrivalle), after the following requirements have been met, cumulatively: (a) the verification and acceptance by Agrivalle of the Supply and in the case of authorized advance, the Supplier’s written acceptance of the Purchase Order; (b) Supplier’s performance of all obligations; and (c) issuance and sending of the regular Invoices/Invoices related to the Supply, which must be issued within the due month and sent to Agrivalle, at least 15 days prior to the due date, to the e-mail addresses: nfe@agrivalle.com.br and the manager of Agrivalle’s requesting area, detailing the type of Supply, the number of the Purchase Order, the date and location where the Supply was performed and/or delivered. If none of the above requirements are met, Agrivalle’s obligation to pay the Price will be suspended proportionally until all requirements are met by the Supplier, in which case Agrivalle will not incur in default and/or default in any way.
4.3.1. Without prejudice to other specifications, the billing documents issued by the Supplier as a result of the Supply shall contain the following information: (i) the Purchase Order number; (ii) the discounts and their calculation basis, the net amount payable and the taxes levied; and in the case of Supply of services (iii) the indication of Agrivalle as the service taker, the place where the services are performed, and, if applicable, the CEI registration number of the work (in the case of civil construction).
4.3.2. If the Parties adjust the payment of the Provision Price in installments by means of measurement, event or otherwise, the corresponding installment will be paid after confirmation of the fulfillment of the event, in writing, by Agrivalle, being certain, moreover, that the payment of the installment does not imply the definitive acceptance of the paid portion, and Agrivalle is only obliged to give acceptance in the Supply after it has been completed and found to be compliant.
4.3.3. In the case of the Provision of Services, the Supplier must present along with the regular invoice/invoice a copy of the receipts of FGTS and INSS payments and other documents that are requested by Agrivalle.
4.3.4.In the event of unjustified delay in the payment of the Price, according to the conditions and deadlines established in the Purchase Order, Agrivalle will pay default interest of 1% (one percent) per month and monetary correction for the variation of the IPCA on the amount due, without any other penalty and/or indemnity being due by Agrivalle to the Supplier as a result of the delay. The Supplier may authorize the payment, without the penalties provided herein. If such authorization given is not formalized in writing, with Agrivalle having paid the principal amount, the non-claim of the default charges provided for by the Supplier within 5 days from the payment, will imply tacit forgiveness.
4.3.5. The bank receipt will serve as a receipt for the payment of the Price.
4.4.The taxes that are due as a direct or indirect result of the Supply, or its execution, constitute a burden of responsibility of the Supplier, including those of a tax, labor, insurance and social security nature, including the Service Tax. Without prejudice to this, the Supplier shall highlight and indicate in the collection document the taxes that may be subject to withholding, so that Agrivalle can withhold and make its payment directly to the taxing entity.
4.4.1. In the case of the Supply of Services in which there is assignment of labor or contract, the Supplier undertakes to submit to Agrivalle, until the issuance of the Purchase Order, the part of the Price corresponding to the labor applied and that corresponding to the equipment and materials, for retention purposes, in accordance with the social security legislation in force.
4.4.1.1. Also in compliance with the legislation in force, the Supplier undertakes to (i) highlight on the invoice/invoice the amount of the withholding with the title of “Withholding for Social Security”; (ii) itemize in the body of the invoice/invoice the value of the services and the value of the materials and/or equipment applied; and (iii) to keep in its possession, to submit to the Federal Revenue Service, when necessary, the tax documents for the acquisition of materials or the equipment rental agreement, as the case may be, related to the materials or equipment whose values were itemized in the invoice/invoice and/or in the Proposal.
4.4.1.2. Failure by the Supplier to comply with the obligations indicated in the items above will result in the withholding and payment, by Agrivalle, of the social security contribution, in the amount corresponding to 11% (eleven percent) of the total amount of the invoice/invoice, under the terms of the legislation in force.
4.5.It is hereby established that Agrivalle will withhold the amount of taxes levied on the transaction as a tax officer and deduct them from the payment to be made to the Supplier, provided that they are due under the terms of applicable law or regulation.
4.6.If it is found by the competent inspection body that there was an inferior and/or incorrect payment, due to an error attributed to the Supplier, which causes the application of a fine and/or assessment subject to complementary payments of taxes, contributions or labor/social charges by Agrivalle, Agrivalle will have the right to immediately collect and receive from the Supplier or its successors, and the Supplier, by itself and its successors, undertakes to pay the total amount ascertained by Agrivalle.Agrivalle shall be entitled to offset the amounts ascertained against any and all amounts due by the Supplier to Agrivalle, pursuant to this or any other Supplies, including, but not limited to, the Price.
4.7.If, during the term of these CGF, there is the creation, entry into force or effectiveness of new taxes, an increase in the tax burden, whether by rate, calculation basis and other methods of effective increase of the burden, which demonstrably increases the acquisition cost or any other burden of Agrivalle within the scope of the CGF, the Parties undertake to conduct a new negotiation to define the Price.
4.8. It is expressly forbidden for the Supplier to issue any credit instrument against Agrivalle due to the Supply, as well as to assign, negotiate, guarantee or discount any securities with banks or third parties, to present its right of receipt as collateral to obtain a credit line and/or advance on receivables. Furthermore, the extraction of duplicates from the invoices that will be issued within the scope of the Supply, as well as the issuance, by the Supplier, of any other document capable of giving rise to a protest against Agrivalle, is prohibited. Any exception will only be made with written authorization from Agrivalle.</span’s Legal Department>
4.8.1. It is forbidden to issue Invoices/Invoices and/or any other documents from third parties directly to Agrivalle, unless otherwise authorized in writing by the Purchasing area.
4.9.

4.10. Price adjustment will only be allowed in Supply that exceeds the period of 12 (twelve) months. If there is no provision for readjustment in the Supplier’s Commercial Proposal, the contracting will be without price adjustment. If there is a provision for readjustment in the commercial proposal presented by the Supplier and if it is higher than the IPCA, the prevalence of the IPCA, or another that in its absence may replace it, is stipulated, regardless of the index or metric provided for in the Commercial Proposal.
