6.2 - Goods in Transit

The Supplier is not responsible for any loss or damage to the Goods in transit. The Supplier shall render to the Customer such assistance as may be necessary to make claims on carriers provided the Customer notified the Supplier and the carriers in writing immediately such loss or damage is discovered.

6.3 - Surplus Goods

The Supplier may supply surplus materials as a precaution against damage or loss. On completion of the Contract any surplus materials will remain the property of the Supplier and will be promptly removed from Site. In the event that any surplus materials owned, rented or furnished by the Supplier (and left on Site) are damaged or destroyed then the Customer shall indemnify the Supplier for any costs, losses or damages (whether direct or indirect) suffered by the Supplier as a result of such damage or destruction, except to the extent that such damage or destruction was directly caused by the Supplier or its Personnel.

6.4 - Unloading of Goods

The provision of labour and a suitable forklift for the unloading and handling of the Supplier materials on Site and provision of a covered storage area when required by Supplier is the responsibility of the Customer, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Any charges arising from delay in unloading, for which the Supplier is not responsible, will be to the Customer’s account.

6.5 - Storage

Where the Supplier’s materials are stored on Site for any reason whatsoever between the time of delivery and the start of installation, the care and protection of such materials is the sole responsibility of the Customer. Where the storage is at a location remote from the Site where installation is to occur, transfer of the Supplier’s materials to Site is the responsibility of the Customer. Charges arising out of delay to installation due to materials not being on Site will be to the Customer’s account.

6.6 - Time for Delivery

Subject to clause 6.1, any times quoted for completion or delivery are effective from the date of receipt by the Supplier of a Goods and Services Order, or the date of receipt of all information and particulars the Supplier requires to proceed with the manufacture, whichever is the later. All such times are to be treated as estimates only and the Supplier shall not be liable for failure to dispatch, install, or otherwise perform within such times unless otherwise agreed in writing. In all cases, the time allowed for completion or delivery shall be extended by reasonable periods to allow for delays caused by the Customer, or by any other cause whatsoever beyond the Supplier’s reasonable control.

6.7 - Goods Supplied by Third Party

Where the Supplier supplies in connection with the supply of Goods and Services any goods or services supplied by a third party, then the Supplier does not give any warranty, guarantee or other term as to the quality, fitness for purpose or otherwise, but shall, where possible, assign to the Customer the benefit of any warranty, guarantee or indemnity given by the party supplying the goods or services to the Supplier.

6.10 - Packing

If the Customer requires special packing in relation to the Goods it must be agreed to in writing between the Customer and the Supplier, and the cost of the same is to the Customer’s account and accordingly will be included in the Contract Price.

7. Acceptance of Claims

7.1 - Time for Acceptance

The Customer must inspect the Goods immediately upon delivery, or in the event of delivery and installation of the Goods, then upon completion of installation, and must within 7 days after date of inspection give written notice to the Supplier, with particulars, of any claim that the Goods are not in accordance with the Contract. If the Customer fails to give that notice, then to the extent permitted by statute the Goods (and, where applicable, the Services) are deemed to have been accepted by the Customer and the Customer must pay for the Goods and Services in accordance with the provisions of these terms of trade. For the purpose of this clause no account shall be taken of additions, minor omissions or defects which do not materially affect the commercial use of Goods.

7.2 - Claims subject to the Supplier’s Inspection

All claims will be subject to inspection of the Goods by the Supplier and accordingly acceptance of the return of the Goods by the Supplier or its agent will not constitute acceptance of a claim in respect of those Goods.

8. Return of Goods

8.1 - Terms Applying to all Returns

The Customer must not return any Goods including Goods which the Customer claims are not in accordance with the Contract unless the Supplier has first given its written approval to their return. Their return must then be with freight prepaid by the Customer and the shipping documents must quote the sales order number.

8.2 - Returns where Goods in accordance with Contract

If the Supplier has given its approval to the return of Goods deemed to be accepted under clause 8.1, the Supplier may charge a handling charge equivalent to 20% of the price of the Goods returned, unless the Customer is a “consumer” for the purposes of the Australian Consumer Law.

8.3 - Returns where Goods not in accordance with Contract

If the Supplier has given its approval to the return of Goods which are not deemed to have been accepted by the Customer under clause 8.1, the Supplier must refund the freight to the Customer if the Customer’s claim that the Goods are not in accordance with the Contract is found to be valid.

8.4 - The Supplier’s Nominated Carrier

(1) Returns must be via the Supplier’s nominated carrier, at normal rates, except that where it is impractical to use the Supplier’s carrier the cheapest alternative service may be used.

(iii) freight with carriers not authorized under sub-clause 8.4(1).

8.5 - Returns without Authorisation

Goods returned to the Supplier without authorisation will be at the risk of the Customer.

9. Risk and Insurance

9.1 Goods supplied by the Supplier to the Customer are at the Customer’s risk immediately upon delivery to the Customer or into the Customer’s custody (whichever is the sooner). The Customer must insure the Goods at its cost from delivery of the Goods until they are paid for in full against fire, theft and other usual risks and produce a certificate to this effect to the Supplier on request. Without limitation of any other form of delivery considered to be effective at law, the Goods will be deemed to have been delivered to the Customer immediately upon arrival at the Customer’s site, notwithstanding that the Supplier may not yet have completed Services to be carried out in respect of the Goods on the site.

10. Retention of Title

10.1 - When Property Passes

Property in the Goods sold under any particular invoice (“the Goods”) will not pass from the Supplier to the Customer until all monies which are or become due to the Supplier by the Customer for the sale of the Goods or any other Goods supplied by the Supplier to the Customer have been paid in full.

The relationship between the Supplier and the Customer in respect of the Goods will be that of bailor and bailee until property in the Goods passes to the Customer.

10.4 - Customer’s Right to Resell

The Customer will be entitled in the course of its business to resell the Goods before property in the Goods passes to the Customer in which event the Customer will contract as a principal but must hold the proceeds of sale on separate account for the Supplier as a fiduciary obligation.

10.5 - Notification and Indemnity

The Customer will be entitled in the course of its business to resell the Goods before property in the Goods passes to the Customer in which event the Customer will contract as a principal but must hold the proceeds of sale on separate account for the Supplier as a fiduciary obligation.

The Customer irrevocably authorises the Supplier at any time, to enter any premises:

(1) upon which the Goods are stored to enable the Supplier to inspect the Goods; and

(2) upon which the Customer’s records pertaining to the Goods are held to inspect and copy the records.

10.7 - The Supplier’s Right to Reclaim

Subject to provisions of the PPSA, if any monies owing by the Customer to the Supplier are overdue the Supplier’s Personnel may enter upon the Customer’s premises and recover and resell the Goods in which event the Supplier’s only obligation to the Customer will be to credit the Customer with the Contract Price stated in the invoice (excluding any delivery charges or other charges included in the invoice not directly related to the price of the Goods) and less, firstly, the Supplier’s costs incurred in exercising its rights pursuant to this clause 10.7 and, secondly, the Supplier’s reasonable estimate of any diminution in the value of the Goods below the Contract Price arising from their possession by the Customer.

11. Insolvency of Customer

11.1 - When Breach Occurs

If before property in the Goods passes, the Customer becomes insolvent for the purposes of the Bankruptcy Act or the Corporations Act 2001 or a receiver or manager of the whole or any part of the Customer’s business or property is appointed, the Contract for the sale of the Goods shall be deemed to be repudiated by the Customer and the repudiation to be accepted by the Supplier, subject at all times to the provisions of Part 5.3A of the Corporations Act 2001.

11.2 - Right of Set-Off

Notwithstanding that a Customer may become insolvent, if the Supplier is at any time indebted to the Customer for any reason, the Supplier will be entitled to set-off the sum of that debt against any monies owed by the Customer under a contract.

12. Personal Properties Securities Act (“PPSA”)

12.1 Defined terms in this clause have the same meaning as given to them in the PPSA.

12.2 The Customer and Supplier agree that the terms of trade and Contract constitute a security agreement and may give rise to a Purchase Money Security Interest (“PMSI”) in favour of the Supplier over the Goods supplied or to be supplied to the Customer, as grantor, pursuant to the terms of trade.

12.3 The Customer acknowledges and agrees that by assenting to these terms of trade the Customer grants a security interest (by virtue of clause 10 (Retention of Title)) to the Supplier over all Goods supplied by the Supplier to the Customer (if any) and all after acquired Goods supplied by the Supplier to the Customer (or for the Customer’s account) and this grant of security interest will be effective notwithstanding anything express or implied to the contrary contained in the Customer’s purchase order.

12.4 The Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Supplier may apply to register a security interest in the Goods at any time before or after delivery of the goods.

12.5 The Customer agrees to do anything required by the Supplier for the purposes of:

(2) enabling the Supplier to apply for any registration, complete any financing statement or financing change statement or give any notification, in connection with the security interest; and/or

(3) enabling the Supplier to exercise rights in connection with the security interest; and/or

(4) ensuring that the Supplier has priority over all other security interests in the Goods.

12.9 The Supplier and the Customer agree not to disclose information of the kind mentioned in section 275(1) of the PPSA and the Customer will not authorise, and will ensure that no other party authorises, the disclosure of such information. This clause 12.9 does not prevent disclosure where such disclosure is required under section 275 of the PPSA because of the operation of section 275(7) of the PPSA.

12.10 The Customer must not create any security interest in the Goods to any person other than the Supplier.

12.11 For the purposes of section 125 of the PPSA the Customer agrees that a ‘reasonable period’ shall not mean less than 12 months regardless of the circumstances.

12.12 The Customer agrees to pay the Supplier, on demand all of the Supplier’s reasonable legal fees, disbursements, costs and expenses associated with:

(1) registration, amendment, or discharge of any financing statement registered by or on behalf of the Supplier; and

21.3 - Delay

The Supplier shall not be liable to the Customer or be deemed to be in breach of the Contract by reason of any delay in performing, or any failure to perform, any of the Supplier’s obligations in relation to the Services, if the delay or failure was due to any cause beyond the Supplier’s reasonable control.

22. Installation Requirements

22.1 - Installation

(1) Where installation of the Goods is included in the Contract the provision of a Site with a clear working area and adequate access will be the responsibility of the Customer. It is the Supplier’s normal practice to notify delivery in advance in order to facilitate the clearance of the working area for the Supplier. The Supplier reserves the right to make an inspection of the working area, and to delay moving on to Site at no penalty to the Supplier if inadequate access or facilities exist. Installation work will require a reasonable standard of lighting and access to power supply within 30 meters of the work area. In the case of structures which require on-site welding a three phase supply with sole access and adequately maintained voltage is also to be provided by the Customer. A representative of the Supplier will be happy to discuss any difficulties in the provision of these requirements and make alternative provisions if necessary, but unless otherwise agreed in writing, any additional costs will be to the Customer’s account.

(2) The Customer acknowledges that it is normal procedure to bolt racking structures to the floor, and unless specified in writing otherwise, the price in the Quotation makes allowance for this. However, if the floor slab is reinforced with grid steel mesh or similar materials to a level less than 70 mm below the surface, special drilling equipment will be required and any additional costs incurred will be to the Customer’s account.

(3) Unless specified in writing otherwise the price in the Quotation presumes that the condition of the floor of the Site is reasonably flat. Flatness tolerance should be within 3 mm inside a 9 metre radius. Additional installation costs incurred to cater for a faulty or uneven floor will be payable by the Customer.

(1) the breach by the Customer or its Personnel of any of the Customer’s obligations (including any warranty) under the Contract;

(2) any negligent act or omission or willful misconduct by the Customer or its Personnel.

23.2 - Limited Indemnity

The Customer will not be liable under clause 23.1 to the extent that the liability was caused, or contributed to, by (as the case requires) the Supplier’s negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct.

Each indemnity in the Contract is a continuing obligation separate and independent from the Customer’s other obligations and survives termination of the Contract.

23.4 - Enforcement of Indemnity
