2. CONTRACT FORMATION
2.1 Any quotation given by the Supplier will be valid for 30 days from and including its date, and will constitute an invitation to treat and not an offer.
2.2 The Order constitutes an offer by the Customer to purchase Goods and Services from the Supplier on these Conditions. A contract for the supply of Goods and Services by the Supplier to the Customer on these Conditions will be formed when the Supplier accepts the Order by issuing an Order Acknowledgement to the Customer. The Supplier is under no obligation to accept the Order.
2.3 No Order which has been accepted in accordance with Condition 2.2 may be cancelled by Customer except with the agreement in writing of the Supplier and on terms that the Customer shall indemnify the Supplier in full against all loss (including loss of profit) costs (including the cost of all labour and materials used) damages charges and expenses incurred by the Supplier as a result of the cancellation.
2.4 These Conditions are the only terms and conditions on which the Supplier will supply goods and services to the Customer and will apply to the exclusion of all other terms and conditions including any terms and conditions which the Customer purports to apply under any purchase order, confirmation of order or similar document (whether or not such document is referred to in the Contract) and any terms and conditions which may otherwise be implied by trade, custom, practice or course of dealing.
2.5 Delivery or commencement of the performance of the Services will be deemed conclusive evidence of the Customer’s acceptance of these Conditions.
2.6 The Supplier will be entitled, at its discretion, to deliver Goods by separate instalments. The Supplier will be entitled to invoice the Price for each instalment separately in accordance with Condition 7.5. Each instalment will be deemed to be a separate contract and no cancellation or termination of any one contract relating to an instalment will give the Customer the right to cancel or terminate any other contract.

3. THE GOODS
3.1 The Supplier will obtain the Customer’s prior approval in order to:
3.1.1 vary the design, finish or Specification of Goods and/or their packaging; and/or
3.1.2 substitute any materials or parts which are used in Goods and which are unavailable for any reason with alternative materials or parts, unless the variation or substitution is necessary to comply with Applicable Law or does not materially affect quality or performance, in which case the Supplier will use reasonable endeavours to give the Customer prior written notice of any such variation or substitution.
3.2 With the exception of the Specification, all samples, drawings, descriptive and illustrative matter and advertising issued or published by the Supplier (or the manufacturer of the Goods) are for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the relevant Goods.
3.3 The Contract is not a sale by sample.
3.4 The Supplier is a registered producer under the UK WEEE Regulations WEE/HE0048TZ. Upon the sale of all Goods which are electrical and electronic equipment (“EEE”) the Customer agrees to accept the financial obligations for removal, collection, recovery and recycling of the EEE once it becomes waste and for any replaced EEE provided to the Customer.

4. DELIVERY
4.1 Unless otherwise specified in the Order Acknowledgement, the Goods will be Delivered Ex Works (as such term is defined in Incoterms 2020) at the location specified in the Order Acknowledgement. Delivery of the Goods will be deemed to occur when the Supplier completes its Delivery obligations under that Incoterm or as otherwise set out in the Order Acknowledgement. To the extent that the Order Acknowledgement sets out that the Goods will be Delivered pursuant to an Incoterm 2020, and where there is any conflict or inconsistency between Incoterms 2020 and these Conditions, Incoterms 2020 will take precedence.
4.2 The Supplier will use reasonable endeavours to Deliver the Goods on the estimated date set out in the Order Acknowledgement, but time for Delivery of the Goods will not be of the essence of the Contract. Any Delivery dates given by the Supplier are estimates only.
4.3 If the Goods have not been Delivered under Condition 4.1 within 10 Business Days from and including the estimated Delivery date set out in the Order Acknowledgement, the Customer will notify the Supplier in writing and, if the Supplier fails to Deliver the Goods within a further 5 Business Days of the Customer’s written notice, the Supplier will refund to the Customer any monies which the Customer has already paid to the Supplier under the Contract for the Goods. Subject to Condition 10.4, the Supplier’s sole Liability for its failure to Deliver the Goods will be limited to the price (exclusive of VAT) paid by the Customer in obtaining replacement goods of equivalent description and quality in the cheapest market available, less the Price of the Goods. The Customer will not otherwise be entitled to cancel the Contract or to reject any Goods by reason of a delay in Delivery or failure to Deliver.
4.4 If Delivery occurs but the Customer fails to accept delivery of, or to collect, the Goods, the Supplier will be entitled to:
4.4.1 store or arrange for storage of the Goods until the Customer accepts delivery of them or they are disposed of under Condition 4.4.2 (as applicable) and to take such action as it considers necessary to attempt to re-deliver the Goods to the address specified in the Order Acknowledgement;
4.4.2 treat the Contract as repudiated by the Customer and dispose of the Goods in any way it sees fit, including by sale to another person. If the Supplier sells any of the Goods under this Condition 4.4.2 at a price which is less than the relevant Price plus any relevant packaging, insurance, carriage and delivery costs, the Supplier will be entitled to charge the Customer for the shortfall; and
4.4.3 charge the Customer for all costs and expenses which the Supplier incurs under Conditions 4.4.1 and 4.4.2.
4.5 The Customer will ensure that any Goods and/or Services that the Customer purchases or receives from the Supplier under the Contract will not be received, imported, exported, re-exported, transferred, sold or used except in compliance with (i) all Applicable Laws, regulations, orders and requirements relating to import, export control and sanctions, as they may be amended from time to time, including without limitation those of the United States of America, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and the jurisdictions in which the Customer and the Supplier are established, conduct business or from which the Goods and/or Services may be supplied; and (ii) the requirements of any licences, authorisations or licence exceptions relating to the receipt, import, export, re-export, transfer use or sale of the Goods and/or Services.

5.2 If the Customer does not give notice to the Supplier under Condition 5.1 in respect of the Goods, the Customer will be deemed to have accepted the Goods on expiry of the 10 Business Day period from and including the date of Delivery.

6. PASSING OF RISK AND RETENTION OF TITLE
6.1 Risk of damage to or loss of the Goods will pass to the Customer on Delivery.
6.2 Subject to Conditions 6.3 and 6.4, legal and beneficial ownership of the Goods will not pass to the Customer until the Supplier has received in full in cleared funds:
6.2.1 all sums due to it in respect of the Goods; and
6.2.2 all other sums which are or which become due to the Supplier from the Customer on any account whatsoever.
6.3 The Customer may resell the Goods if that is in the ordinary course of its business and, if it does so, legal and beneficial ownership of Goods will pass to the Customer immediately prior to the Customer entering into a binding contract for the sale of those Goods.
6.4 The Supplier may, by giving written notice to the Customer, pass legal and beneficial ownership of the Goods (or any of them) to the Customer at any time before such ownership would otherwise have passed to the Customer.

6.5.1 hold the Goods on a fiduciary basis as the Supplier’s bailee;
6.5.2 store the Goods (at no cost to the Supplier) separately from all other goods of the Customer or any third party in such a way that they remain readily identifiable as the Supplier’s property;
6.5.3 not destroy, deface or obscure any identifying mark or packaging on or relating to the Goods;

6.8 The Customer grants, and will procure that the owner of any third party premises grants, the Supplier, its agents, employees and subcontractors an irrevocable licence at any time to enter any premises where the Goods are or may be stored in order to inspect them, or, where the Customer’s right to possession, use and resale has terminated, to recover them.
6.9 Where the Supplier is unable to determine whether any goods are the Goods in respect of which the Customer’s right to possession, use and resale has terminated, the Supplier will be deemed to have sold all goods of the kind sold by the Supplier to the Customer in the order in which they were invoiced to the Customer.
6.10 If the Customer’s right to possession, use and resale of the Goods terminates in accordance with Condition 6.6, the Supplier will be entitled to issue the Customer with a credit note for all or any part of the price of the Goods together with value added tax thereon.
