3. DESPATCH. Despatch dates are quoted without engagement although every endeavour will be made to adhere to the date or dates
      quoted. In no circumstances shall we be liable for any loss arising from delay in despatch, howsoever caused. Time shall not be the
      essence of the contract.

4. CARRIAGE. All goods ordered for despatch within the UK region will be despatched carriage paid unless otherwise stated in our
      acceptance of order. We shall have the sole choice as to the method/methods and carrier/carriers employed unless otherwise

      within 48 hours after delivery. (ii) In the case of non-delivery we accept no liability of any sort unless written notice of non-delivery is
      given to us within 7 days after the date of our advice of despatch of the goods. (iii) Our liability for damage in transit or non-delivery of
      goods duly notified to us in accordance with the above shall in any event be limited to the replacement of the goods within
      reasonable time whether non-delivery or damage is due to negligence or otherwise.

6. DEFECTS AFTER DELIVERY. Subject to the provisions of condition 5, if you, upon delivery, any of the goods shall be found to be
      defective and providing that within thirty days after delivery we are notified in writing and the goods returned to us if we so require, or
      alternatively made available for inspection by us, and we are satisfied as to the defects, we shall at our option either replace the
      defective goods within a reasonable time or credit you with their contract price. All defective goods returned to us shall be our
      property.

7. PAYMENT. Payment Terms will be strictly Net Monthly.

8. TITLE OF GOODS.
(i). The goods shall remain our property as legal and equitable owner and no property or title to the goods shall pass to you until their full

      price has been duly paid to us together with the full price of any goods the subject of any other contract with us.
(ii). While the ownership of the goods remains with us, you shall store them at your premises separately from you own goods or those of

      any other person and in a manner which makes them readily identifiable as our goods.
(iii). Risk in the goods passes to you as soon as the goods leave our premises save where we undertake transportation to your premises

      or nominated delivery point in which case risk passes to you immediately on arrival at your said premises or delivery point.
(iv). If any payments due hereunder are overdue in whole or in part we may (without prejudice to our other rights) recover or resell the

      goods or any part of them and may enter upon your premises (or such other premises where the goods are stored) by our servants
      or agents for that purpose.
(v). You shall not be at liberty to sell on the goods before effecting payment thereof to us unless such on-sale is at a price not less than the
      price agreed between us. Without prejudice and subject to our rights in law and equity, if any of the goods shall be sold by you before
      payment for them has been made that part of the proceeds of sale which represents or is equivalent to the amount owed by you to us
      shall be paid into a separate bank account designated for that purpose. We shall be entitled to trace the proceeds of any such sales
      into said bank account (or wherever such proceeds may in fact be located) and you hereby authorise us to make enquiries of your
      bankers (or otherwise as appropriate) relating to such proceeds.
(vi). You shall ensure that the goods are not incorporated in or mixed with or used as part of other goods (“New Goods”) before payment
      for the goods has been made to us although if such incorporation or mixing shall take place the property in those goods which remain
      identifiable and/or severable from such New Goods shall be and remain with us until payment has been made of the New Goods
      have been sold as aforesaid and all our rights hereunder in the goods shall extend to such part of the New Goods and to the
      proceeds of sale thereof, which shall be held by you in accordance with sub-condition 10.5 hereof.
(vii). Any failure by us to require a separate account under sub-condition 108 and/or 10.6 above shall not constitute a waiver or variation of
      its rights under this condition.
(viii). Each of the foregoing sub-conditions shall so far as the context permits be read and construed independently of the other sub-
      conditions so that if one or more should be held to be invalid for any reason whatsoever then the remaining sub-conditions shall be
      valid to the extent that they are not held to be so invalid.
