The Company will notify the Customer in writing of any material alterations to any specifications relating to the Goods and/or Services and the Customer shall be deemed to have accepted such alterations unless notice in writing to the contrary shall be received by the Company within 14 days of the Company’s notice to the Customer.

   out in the Company’s price list published on the date of delivery, or deemed date of delivery, of the Goods or
   date or performance, or deemed date of performance, of the Services.

   any other tax or duty, and all costs or charges in relation to packaging, labelling, loading, unloading, delivery,

   it is due to pay the Price.
3. The Company reserves the right to increase the Price by giving notice to the Customer, to reflect any increase in
   the Goods and/or Services to the Company that is due to:
   1. any factor beyond the Company’s control (including foreign exchange fluctuations, tax or duty increases,
      increase in supplier costs, increase in labour, materials or other manufacturing costs, or changes in any
      relevant laws);

7. The Company may at any time at its sole discretion require that payment is to be made by letter of credit. Where the Company specifies that payment is to be made by letter of credit, the Customer must establish and maintain in favour of the Company an irrevocable and unconditional letter of credit in a form satisfactory to the Company and issued and/or confirmed by a bank in England which is acceptable to the Company. No delivery of the Goods or performance of the Services will take place until such a letter of credit has been issued and where appropriate confirmed and the Company is satisfied with all related arrangements. If for any reason payment is due under any letter of credit established for that purpose but not made, the Customer shall nevertheless remain liable to pay the Price.
8. No indulgence granted by the Company to the Customer concerning the Customer’s obligations under this Condition 3 shall be or be deemed to be a credit facility, but if any such facility is granted to the Customer by the Company, the Company may withdraw it at its sole discretion at any time.
9. If any sum due from the Customer to the Company under the Contract or any other contract is not paid on or before the due date for payment then all sums then owing by the Customer to the Company shall become due and payable immediately and, without prejudice to any other right or remedy available to the Company, the Company shall be entitled to:
   1. cancel or suspend its performance of the Contract or any Order including suspending deliveries of the Goods and suspending delivery of any other goods to the Customer and suspending provision of the Services or other services until arrangements as to payment or credit have been established which are
      satisfactory to the Company;
   2. require the Customer to pay for Goods prior to their despatch or collection from the Company’s place of business;
   3. suspend performance of Services remaining to be carried out; and/or
   4. charge the Customer:
      1. interest on the overdue amount from the due date until payment is made in full both before and after any judgment, at the prevailing rate under Section 6 of the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998 (accruing on a daily basis and compounded monthly); and
      2. the cost of obtaining judgment, all reasonable professional costs (including legal fees) and other costs of issuing proceedings or otherwise pursuing a debt recovery procedure.
   5. Where the Company suspends delivery of the Goods and/or performance of the Services pursuant to Conditions 3(i)(i) and (iii), any agreed time schedules shall be extended by a period equal to the period of such suspension without prejudice to any other remedy available to the Company.
   6. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, payment shall be made by the Customer in pounds sterling. No payment shall be deemed to have been received until the Company has received cleared funds.

2. If the Customer fails to take delivery of the Goods, then:

      costs and expenses (including insurance).
3. If the Customer fails to collect or accept delivery of the Goods or any part thereof within 28 days of written notification from the Company that the Goods are ready for collection or delivery, the Company shall be entitled (without prejudice to its other remedies under the Contract for such breach) to sell, or at its option destroy, such Goods and to apply the proceeds of their sale and/or their scrap value if destroyed towards payment of all sums due to the Company under the Contract.
4. Any times specified by the Company for delivery of the Goods or performance of the Services are intended to be an estimate only and time for delivery shall not be of the essence.
5. If the Company fails to dispatch or deliver the Goods or perform the Services by any specified times, such failure shall not constitute a breach of the Contract and the Company’s liability shall be limited to the costs and expenses incurred by the Customer in obtaining replacement goods or services of similar description and quality in the cheapest market available, less the Price.
6. The Company shall have no liability for any failure to deliver the Goods or Services to the extent that such failure is caused due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control, the Customer’s failure to provide the Company with adequate delivery or site or other instructions for the Goods or Services or any relevant instruction related to the supply of the Goods or Services.
7. Goods, once delivered, cannot be returned unless their return is agreed in advance in writing by the Company.

9. The Company shall be entitled at its discretion to make delivery of Goods or supply Services by instalments and to invoice the Customer for each instalment individually. Where Goods are delivered or Services are supplied by instalments each such instalment shall be deemed to be sold or supplied under a separate contract to which these Conditions shall apply. Any delay in delivery or defect in an instalment shall not entitle the Customer to cancel any other instalment.
10. The Company shall be under no obligation to give notice under Section 32(3) of the Sale of Goods Act 1979.
11. The Customer agrees to comply fully, at its own expense, with all applicable import and export laws, restrictions, national security controls and regulations of the United Kingdom and any other applicable local law or regulation.

2. If for any reason the Customer does not accept delivery of any of the Goods or materials for the Services when they are ready for delivery, or the Company is unable to deliver the Goods or materials for the Services on time because the Customer has not provided appropriate instructions, documents, licences or authorisations:
   1. the Goods or materials for the Services will be deemed to have been delivered, risk passing to the Customer (including for loss or damage caused by the Company’s negligence); and
   2. the Company may store the Goods or materials for the Services until actual delivery whereupon the Customer shall be liable for all related costs and expenses (including storage and insurance).

The Company shall (subject to giving reasonable notice) be entitled to examine the Goods
      in storage at any time during normal business hours; and
   4. the Company shall be entitled to maintain an action against the Customer for the Price, notwithstanding that legal, equitable and beneficial title to and property in the Goods has not passed to the Customer.
5. The Company may sell the Goods in the ordinary course of its business, but the Customer’s right of re-sale shall automatically cease upon the occurrence of any of the events referred to in Condition 17 below and/or if any sum owed by the Customer to the Company under any Contract is not paid on the due date for payment.
6. Upon the re-sale of the Goods by the Customer the proceeds of sale thereof shall be received and held by the Customer in trust for the Company (and if so requested by the Company in writing, in a separate bank account in the names of the Company and the Customer) but the Customer shall be entitled to retain any excess over the amount then outstanding under this or any other Contract.
