    (a) there is any movement in the cost of supplying the Goods and/or Services specified in the Order (including, without limitation, any actual increase in the costs to the Supplier in manufacturing, procuring or transporting the Goods, currency fluctuations, and/or actual increases in the materials and/or labour in connection with the supply of the Goods and/or Services);
    (b) the Goods and/or Services specified in the Order are varied from the Goods and/or Services specified in the Supplier’s quotation; or

Cancellation of Orders

17. Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties, the Customer may not cancel an Order (or any part of an Order), delivery of the Goods cannot be deferred and Goods ordered cannot be returned except with the prior written consent of the Supplier and then (subject to clause 30(b)) only upon terms that the Customer reimburse and indemnify the Supplier against all losses it has incurred or may incur as a result of the cancellation, deferral or return, including, without limitation, cartage, bank charges, other incidental expenses incurred on any part of the Order and loss of profits.
18. Notwithstanding any other rights the Supplier may have under this agreement, the Supplier may, in its sole discretion, cancel any Order or delivery of any Order, by providing written notice to the Customer if the Customer:
    (a) defaults in payment of any invoice by the due date;
    (b) enters into liquidation or, where the Customer is an individual, becomes bankrupt; or
    (c) breaches an essential term of this agreement.
19. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Supplier accepts no liability for any loss whatsoever incurred by the Customer or any third party as a result of the Supplier exercising its rights under clause 18.

Delivery

20. The Customer shall be liable for all costs associated with delivery, including freight, insurance, handling and other charges, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
21. The Customer acknowledges and accepts that any period or date for delivery stated by the Supplier is intended as an estimate only and is not a contractual commitment. The Supplier will not in any circumstances be liable for any loss or damage suffered by the Customer or any third party for failure to meet any estimated delivery.
22. Delivery will be made within normal business hours between Monday to Friday, 8.00am to 5.00pm only (unless otherwise agreed to in writing).
23. Delivery is deemed to occur at the earlier of:
    (a) the collection of Goods from the Supplier by the Customer or any third party on behalf of the Customer;
    (b) the time of loading of Goods at the Supplier’s premises for the purpose of delivery to the Customer;
    (c) the Customer’s nominated carrier takes possession of the Goods in which event the carrier shall be deemed to be the Customer’s agent.
24. The Supplier is entitled to charge a reasonable fee for storage and/or redelivery charges in the event the Customer does not, or is unable to, accept delivery of the Goods.
25. The Customer accepts that the Supplier may deliver Goods by instalments and require payment for each separate instalment in accordance with these terms and conditions.
26. The Customer acknowledges and accepts that it is not relieved from any obligation arising under these terms and conditions by reason of any delay in delivery.

Returns

28. The Customer must inspect the Goods immediately upon delivery and must within seven (7) days after the date of inspection give written notice to the Supplier with particulars, of any claim that the Goods are not in accordance with this agreement. Further, the Customer must, upon request from the Supplier, allow the Supplier to enter upon any premises occupied by the Customer to inspect the Goods that are subject of the claim. If the Customer fails to give notice or refuses to allow the Supplier to inspect the Goods, then to the extent permitted by law, the Goods must be treated as having been accepted by the Customer (and the Customer shall have no claim against the Supplier for damage or non-conformity of the Goods with these terms and conditions or any agreement between them) and the Customer must pay for the Goods in accordance with these terms and conditions.
29. The Customer cannot return Goods to the Supplier without the written agreement of the Supplier.
30. After inspection has taken place as provided for by clause 28 (but subject to clause 29):
    (a) if the Supplier reasonably determines that:
    (i) the Goods are not damaged; or
    (ii) the Goods were damaged by the Customer or the Customer failed to take reasonable steps to prevent the Goods from becoming damaged; and
    (iii) the Goods are otherwise in conformity with these terms and conditions,
    the Customer is deemed to have accepted the Goods and the Supplier is entitled to the Price.
    (b) if the Supplier reasonably determines that:
    (i) the Goods are damaged; and
    (ii) the Goods were not damaged by the Customer and the Customer did not fail to take reasonable steps to prevent the Goods from becoming damaged; or
    (iii) the Goods are otherwise not in conformity with these terms and conditions,
    the Customer is entitled to any one or more, at the option of the Supplier:
    (i) the replacement of the Goods or the supply of equivalent Goods;
    (ii) the repair of the Goods;
    (iii) the payment of the cost of replacing the Goods or acquiring equivalent Goods;
    (iv) the payment of the cost of having the Goods repaired.
31. Where Goods are the subject of a notice under clause 28:
    (a) the Customer must leave the Goods in the state and condition in which they were delivered until such time as the Supplier or its duly authorised agent has inspected the Goods; and
    (b) such inspection must be carried out within a reasonable time after notification by the Customer.
32. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that any return, other than a return due to a default by the Supplier under this agreement or as otherwise permitted by law, will incur a handling and administration charge of ten (10) percent of the purchase price of the returned Goods.
33. Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties, the Customer must pay all costs associated with the return of any Goods (either to the Supplier or from the Supplier to the Customer or any third party) including freight, insurance, handling and other charges. Goods to be returned to the Supplier must be packed and wrapped appropriately and must include all original packaging and documentation. The Supplier accepts no liability for any damage that occurs to any Goods in return transit.

Risk

34. Risk of damage to or loss of the Goods passes to the Customer on delivery and the Customer must insure the Goods on or before delivery against all losses which may be sustained as a result of the loss, damage or destruction of the Goods or any part thereof by accident, theft, fire, flood, negligence and such other insurable causes as may be available and shall include the Supplier as co-insured.
35. If any of the Goods are damaged or destroyed following delivery but prior to ownership passing to the Customer, the Supplier is entitled to receive all insurance proceeds payable for the Goods to the extent of the indebtedness of the Customer to the Supplier. The production of these terms and conditions by the Supplier is sufficient evidence of the Supplier’s rights to receive the insurance proceeds without the need for any person dealing with the Supplier to make further enquires.
36. If the Customer requests that Goods are delivered either to an unattended location, left outside, or are left outside the Supplier’s premises for collection, the Customer acknowledges that the Supplier will deliver the Goods as requested at the Customer’s sole risk.

Retention of title

37. Until such time as the Customer has made payment in full for the Goods and until such time as the Customer has made payment in full of all other money owing by the Customer to the Supplier (whether in respect of money payable under a specific Contract or on any other account whatsoever):
    (a) title in the Goods does not pass to the Customer;
    (b) the Customer agrees that property and title in the Goods will not pass to the Customer and the Supplier retains the legal and equitable title in those Goods supplied and not yet sold;
    (c) the Customer will hold the Goods in a fiduciary capacity for the Supplier and agrees to store the Goods in such a manner that they can be identified as the property of the Supplier, and will not mix the Goods with other similar goods; and
    (d) the Customer will be entitled to sell the Goods in the ordinary course of its business but will sell as agent and bailee for the Supplier and the proceeds of sale of the Goods will be held by the Customer on trust for the Supplier absolutely.
38. The Customer’s liability to the Supplier under these terms and conditions will not be discharged by the operation of clause 37(d) (but its levels of indebtedness will be reduced by the extent of the funds so remitted to the Supplier).
39. The Customer agrees that whilst property and title in the Goods remains with the Supplier, the Supplier has the right, with prior notice to the Customer, to enter upon any premises occupied by the Customer (or any receiver, receiver and manager, administrator, liquidator or trustee in bankruptcy of the Customer) to inspect the Goods of the Supplier and, when payment is overdue, to immediately enter the premises (as the Customer’s invitee) to repossess the Goods which may be in the Customer’s possession, custody or control when payment is overdue.
40. The Customer will be responsible for the Supplier’s reasonable costs and expenses in exercising its rights under clause 39 where the Customer is otherwise in default of the terms of this agreement. Where the Supplier exercises any power to enter the premises, that entry will not give rise to any action of trespass or similar action on the part of the Customer against the Supplier, its employees, servants or agents.
41. The Customer agrees that where the Goods have been retaken into the possession of the Supplier, the Supplier has the absolute right to sell or deal with the Goods, and if necessary, sell the Goods with the trademark or name of the Customer on those Goods, and the Customer hereby grants an irrevocable licence to the Supplier to do all things necessary to sell the Goods bearing the name or trademark of the Customer.
42. For the avoidance of doubt, the Supplier’s interest constitutes a ‘purchase money security interest’ pursuant to the PPSA.

Personal Property Securities Act

43. The Customer acknowledges that by assenting to these terms and conditions, the Customer grants a security interest to the Supplier in all Goods (and their proceeds) now or in the future supplied by the Supplier to the Customer (or to its account).
44. The Customer undertakes to do anything that is required by the Supplier:
    (a) so that the Supplier can acquire and maintain one or more perfected security interests under the PPSA in respect of the Goods and their proceeds;
    (b) to register a financing statement or financing change statement; and
    (c) to ensure that the Supplier’s security position, and rights and obligations, are not adversely affected by the PPSA.
45. Unless the Customer has obtained the Supplier’s prior written consent, the Customer undertakes not to:
    (a) register a financing change statement in respect of a security interest contemplated or constituted by these terms and conditions; and
    (b) create or purport to create any security interest in the Goods, nor register, or permit to be registered, a financing statement or a financing change statement in relation to the Goods in favour of a third party.
46. The Customer:
    (a) waives its right under section 157 of the PPSA to receive a copy of the verification statement relating to a security interest created under these terms and conditions;
    (b) agrees that to the extent permitted by the PPSA, the following provisions of the PPSA will not apply and are contracted out of: section 95 (to the extent that it requires the secured party to give notices to the grantor); section 96; section 118 (to the extent that it allows a secured party to give notices to the grantor); section 121(4); section 125; section 130; section 132(3)(d); section 132(4); section 135; section 142 and section 143; and
    (c) agrees that the following provisions of the PPSA will not apply and the Customer will have no rights under them: section 127; section 129(2) and (3); section 130(1); section 132; section 134(2); section 135; section 136(3), (4) and (5) and section 137.
47. The Customer agrees that it will, if requested by the Supplier, sign any documents, provide any information or do anything else the Supplier requests, to ensure that any security interest created in the Supplier’s favour by these terms and conditions is, to the fullest extent possible under the PPSA, perfected in accordance with Part 2.2 of the PPSA.
48. Notwithstanding section 275 of the PPSA, the parties agree to keep confidential all information of the kind referred to in section 275 of the PPSA, unless compelled by law to disclose such information.
49. The Customer irrevocably grants to the Supplier the right to enter upon the Customer’s property or premises, with notice, and without being in any way liable to the Customer or to any third party, if the Supplier has cause to exercise any of its rights under sections 123 and/or 128 of the PPSA, and the Customer shall reasonably indemnify the Supplier from any claims made by any third party as a result of such exercise.
50. The Customer will be responsible for the Supplier’s reasonable costs and expenses in exercising its rights under clause 49 where the Customer is otherwise in default of these terms and conditions. Where the Supplier exercises any power to enter the premises, that entry will not give rise to any action of trespass or similar action on the part of the Customer against the Supplier, its employees, servants or agents.
51. The Customer agrees to accept service of any document required to be served, including any notice under this agreement or the PPSA or any originating process, by prepaid post at any address nominated in this application or any other address later notified to the Supplier by the Customer or the Customer’s authorised representative.
52. The Customer further agrees that where the Supplier has rights in addition to those under part 4 of the PPSA, those rights will continue to apply.

Security/charges

53. The Customer charges in favour of the Supplier all of its estate and interest in any real property, whether held in its own right or as capacity as trustee, the Customer owns at present and in the future with payment of all monies which are now or in the future become owing to the Supplier whether pursuant to these terms and conditions or otherwise until all such monies are paid in full by the Customer.
54. The Customer charges in favour of the Supplier all of its estate and interest in any personal property, whether held in its own right or as capacity as trustee, the Customer owns at present and in the future with payment of all monies which are now or in the future become owing to the Supplier whether pursuant to these terms and conditions or otherwise until all such monies are paid in full by the Customer.
55. As security for the payment of the amount of its indebtedness to the Supplier from time to time, the Customer irrevocably appoints as its duly constituted attorney the Supplier’s company secretary from time to time to execute in the Customer’s name and as the Customer’s act and deed any real property mortgage, bill of sale or consent to any caveat the Supplier may choose to lodge against real property that the Customer may own in any Land Titles Office in any state or territory of Australia, even though the Customer may not have defaulted in carrying out its obligations hereunder upon written notice and demand to the Customer (in the event that there is no default by the Customer in carrying out its obligations hereunder).
56. Where the Customer has previously entered into an agreement with the Supplier by which the Customer has granted a charge, mortgage or other security interest (including a security interest as defined in the PPSA) over or in respect of real or personal property, those charges, mortgages or other security interests and the terms which directly or indirectly create rights, powers or obligations in respect thereto will continue and co-exist with the obligations and security interests created in this agreement and will secure all indebtedness and obligations of the Customer under this agreement. The Supplier may, at its election and upon the provision of written notice, vary the terms of such previous charges, mortgages or other securities to reflect the terms herein.

Cancellation of terms of credit

57. The Supplier reserves the right to withdraw credit at any time upon provision of 48 hours’ written notice.

    (b) the rights and/or obligations pursuant to this agreement which by their nature are intended to survive termination of this agreement.

Provision of further information

61. The Customer undertakes to comply with any reasonable written requests by the Supplier to provide further information for the purpose of assessing the Customer’s creditworthiness, including an updated credit application.
62.

In the case of a change of directors or shareholders the Supplier may ask for its directors to sign a guarantee and indemnity.

Corporations

63. If the Customer is a corporation, the Customer warrants that all of its directors have signed this agreement and acknowledges that all of its directors may be required to enter into a guarantee and indemnity with the Supplier in relation to the Customer’s obligations to the Supplier.

Insolvency

68. If the Customer becomes insolvent, to the extent permitted by law, the Customer remains liable under this agreement for payment of all liabilities incurred hereunder.

Indemnity

    (a) damage to property or death of, or injury to, any person caused directly or indirectly by the Goods;

    (b) these terms and conditions make the Supplier specifically liable for any cost or expense or rectifying or repairing any defect in, malfunction of or damage to the Goods.
71. The Customer’s liability to indemnify the Supplier is a continuing obligation separate and independent from the Customer’s other obligations and survives termination of this agreement or any Order.

77. Payments allocated (and/or reallocated) under clause 75 and/or 76 will be treated as though they were allocated (and/or reallocated) in the manner determined by the Supplier on the date of receipt of payment.

79. If as a result of:
    (a) any legislation becoming applicable to the subject matter of this agreement; or
    (b) any changes in legislation or its interpretation by a court of competent jurisdiction or by any authority charged with its administration;
    the Supplier becomes liable to pay any tax, duty, excise or levy in respect of the amounts received from the Customer, then the Customer must pay the Supplier these additional amounts on 48 hours’ written demand.

Waiver

84. A waiver of any provision or breach of this agreement by the Supplier shall only be effective if made by an authorised officer of the Supplier in writing. A waiver of any provision or breach of this agreement by the Customer shall only be effective if made by the Customer’s authorised officer in writing. If the Supplier or the Customer elect not to enforce its rights arising as a result of a breach of these terms and conditions, that will not constitute a waiver of any rights relating to any subsequent or other breach.
