The Company has a formal cancellation policy and generally does not accept returns on these units. As a result, many of the Company&#8217;s products do not have an alternative use and therefore, for these products we recognize revenue over the time it takes to produce the unit. For all other products that are part sales or standardized units, we satisfy the performance obligation when the control is passed to the customer, generally at time of shipment.

Representatives are national companies that are in the business of providing HVAC units and other related products and services to customers. The end user customer orders a bundled group of products and services from the Representative and expects the Representative to fulfill the order. These additional products and services may include controls purchased from another manufacturer to operate the unit, start-up services, and curbs for supporting the unit (&#8220;Third Party Products&#8221;).   All are associated with the purchase of a HVAC unit but may be provided by the Representative or another third party. Only after the specifications are agreed to by the Representative and the customer, and the decision is made to use an AAON HVAC unit, will we receive notice of the order. We establish the amount we must receive for our HVAC unit (&#8220;minimum sales price&#8221;), but do not control the total order price that is negotiated by the Representative with the end user customer.  The Representatives submit the total order price to us for invoicing and collection. The total order price includes our minimum sales price and an additional amount which may include both the Representatives&#8217; fee and amounts due for additional products and services required by the customer.  </font><font style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255, 0.0);color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;text-decoration: underline;">The Company is considered the principal for the equipment we design and manufacture and records that revenue gross.

Our Representatives are not individuals.  Rather, they are independent national companies that are in the business of providing HVAC units and other related services either to Customers who are replacing their HVAC unit or to Customers who are newly constructing commercial buildings.  The Representatives operate under their own trade names and may sell multiple brands of HVAC units.  Representatives are generally assigned a geographic territory and are used to generate sales of the Company&#8217;s HVAC equipment.  </font></div><div><font><br></font></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;"><font style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255, 0.0);color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;">The Representatives are responsible for initiating sales orders with end users of the Company&#8217;s products (the &#8220;Customers&#8221;).  When a Customer needs a HVAC unit installed at the construction site, they will contact their local HVAC business (our Representatives) to determine what HVAC product they need and any additional product or installation services required.  Once the order specifications are agreed to between the Representatives and the Customer, and the decision is made by the Representative to use an AAON HVAC unit, the Company receives notice of the order.  The order information includes information regarding the specifications of the actual HVAC unit the Company is expected to manufacture and deliver directly to the Customer&#8217;s construction site, as well as information regarding the total order price.  The total order price represents the final negotiated price of the entire order, which includes the Company&#8217;s HVAC unit and generally </font></div><div style="position:relative;width:100%;height:45pt;"><div style="position:absolute;bottom:0;width:100%;"><div style="text-align:center;"><font style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255, 0.0);color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;">2</font></div></div></div><hr style="page-break-after:always"><div style="min-height:63pt;width:100%;"><div style="text-align:right;"><font style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255, 0.0);color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;">2425 S.

The structure of our arrangements with our Representatives allows us to reduce our credit risk, which would increase if we allowed our Representatives to be responsible for collecting the sales proceeds from the Customer.  We would then be exposed to credit risk at both the Customer level and at the Representative level.  In addition, our structure allows us to be in a position of placing liens on the Customer&#8217;s project if payment is not received, which creates significant incentive for Customers to pay our invoices.  Lastly, the Company&#8217;s HVAC unit is almost always the largest component of the entire order, and this allows us to be in a position to control the billings and collections from the Customer.</font></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;"><font><br></font></div><div style="padding-left:36pt;text-align:justify;"><font style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255, 0.0);color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:12pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%;">All billings and collections are the responsibility of the Company.  The Company owes the excess of the final total order price over the minimum sales price to the Representative, which is a &#8220;pass through&#8221; amount, upon receipt of payment from the Customer.  The final total order price may include Third Party Products that are associated with the purchase of a HVAC product but are provided by the Representative or another third party.  The Company does not obtain a break-down of the Third Party Product amounts included in the excess of the final total order price over the minimum sales price.
