Contract.
4.6 The exclusions from, and limitations of, liability set out in this paragraph 4 will be considered severally. The invalidity or unenforceability of any one

this Contract.
4.8 Notwithstanding any other term of this Contract we will not be in breach of this Contract to the extent our failure to perform or delay or defect in
performance of our obligations under this Contract arises as a result of:

4.8.1 any breach by you of your obligations contained in this Contract;
4.8.2 us relying on any incomplete or inaccurate data provided by a third party; or
4.8.3 us complying with any instruction or request by you or one of your employees or agents.

4.9 Subject to paragraph 4.3, we will not have any liability for any breach unless you give us written notice of that breach prior to the expiry of the warranty
period specified in the Order and within a) 5 days of that breach occurring or, if later, b) the date on which you became aware (or should reasonably
have become aware) of the breach specifying in reasonable detail (to the extent such information is available at the time such notice is given) the
nature and extent of the breach and the amount claimed by you arising from the breach.
4.10 We are not responsible for the cost of repairing any pre-existing faults or damage to the Site (as defined in paragraph 10.4.2) and/or your property that
we discover in the course of installation and/or performance by us or caused by improper use of or unauthorised interference with the Products.
4.11 We will not be responsible for any loss or damage caused by an unexpected surge of electricity during our performance of the Services or to the

5.1 We will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of, any of our obligations under a Contract that is caused by an
Event Outside Our Control.
5.2 An Event Outside Our Control means any act or event beyond our reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God, flood, earthquake,
storm, subsidence or other natural (or epidemic) disaster, any law or any action taken by a government or public authority, collapse of buildings, fire,
explosion or accident, strikes, lock-outs or other industrial action by third parties, civil commotion, riot, invasion, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist

5.3.2 our obligations under a Contract will be suspended and the time for performance of our obligations will be extended for the duration of the
Event Outside Our Control. Where the Event Outside Our Control affects our delivery of Products to you, we will arrange a new delivery date
with you after the Event Outside Our Control is over.

5.4 For the avoidance of doubt, you will continue to pay the invoices in accordance with paragraph 3.1 in respect of any Products and Services which we
continue to supply notwithstanding the occurrence of an Event Outside Our Control.

6. Other important terms

6.1 We may transfer our rights and obligations under a Contract to another organisation.
6.2 You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these Terms to another person if we agree in writing.
6.3 The Contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms, whether under the Contracts (Rights of Third
Parties Act) 1999 or otherwise.
6.4 Each of the paragraphs of these Terms and Conditions of Sale operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are
unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
6.5 If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so,
that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive
a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.
6.6 These Terms are governed by English law. This means a Contract for the purchase of Products and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection
with it will be governed by English law. You and we both agree to that the courts of England will have exclusive jurisdiction.

7. Our Products

7.1 The Products are identified in the Order.
7.2 The images of the Products on our Website and in our catalogue or brochure are for illustrative purposes only. Although every care has been taken to
ensure that the photographic representation, description and specification of each Product is accurate, we cannot guarantee that the printed pictures
accurately reflect the colour of the Products, and your Products may vary slightly from those images.

8. Delivery

8.1 Your order will be fulfilled within the delivery period detailed on the Order, unless there is an Event Outside Our Control (see paragraph 5), provided
always that time for delivery shall not be of the essence. If we are unable to meet the delivery date because of an Event Outside Our Control, we will
contact you to agree a revised delivery date.
8.2 Please ensure that you check that the address contained in the Order is correct. We cannot be held responsible for items which go missing or are
delayed due to inaccurate or incomplete delivery address information that you provide to us.
8.3 Delivery will be completed, and risk in the Products will pass to you, when we deliver the Products to the address you gave us for delivery (the Delivery
Address) and you will be responsible for the Products when they are delivered to you. In circumstances where we are also providing Services to you,
you will ensure that there is a secure room on Delivery Address for storage of the Products prior to completion of the Services and neither we, nor any
of our agents or sub-contractors, may be held liable for any loss or damage to the Products (unless such loss or damage is caused solely by our act or
omission).
8.4 You own the Products once we have received payment in full for the Products. We may withhold the Products and/or cancel the Contract between us
if payment is not received from you in full in cleared funds.
8.5 If you fail to accept delivery of the Products, we will be entitled to charge you for all related costs and expenses (including insurance) associated with
storing the Products until delivery takes place.
8.6 If 14 calendar days after the date on which we notified you that the Products were ready for delivery you have not accepted delivery of the Products,
we may resell or otherwise dispose of part or all of the Products and, after deducting reasonable storage and selling costs, account to you for any excess
over the price of the Products or charge you for any shortfall below the price of the Products.

9. Risk and property

9.1 Risk of damage to, or loss of, the Products shall pass to you when we deliver the Products to the Delivery Address (and, if the Delivery Address is our
premises, this will be at the time when we notify you that the Products are available for collection).
9.2 Notwithstanding delivery and the passing of risk in the Products, legal title in the Products shall not pass to you until we have received in cash or cleared
funds payment in full of: (i) the price of the Products (plus VAT); and (ii) all other sums which are or which become due to us from you on any account.
9.3 Until such time as legal title in the Products passes to you, you shall:
9.4 hold the Products as our fiduciary agent and bailee and shall accordingly remain liable to account to us for the Products;
9.5 identify the Products as our property;
9.6 not remove, alter, destroy, deface or obscure any identifying mark or packaging on or relating to the Products; and
9.7 protect and maintain the Products in satisfactory condition and keep them insured on our behalf for their full price against all risks to our reasonable
satisfaction.
9.8 Subject to paragraph 9.2, you shall be entitled to resell or use the Products in the ordinary course of your business but such right shall terminate
immediately if: (i) you fail to make payment of any sum whatsoever due to us on the relevant due date; (ii) we, acting reasonably, notify you in writing
that we have bona fide doubts as to your solvency; and/or (iii) you are subject to, or suffer, any event of insolvency.
9.9 Where we are unable to determine whether any Products are the goods in respect of which your right to possession has terminated, you shall be
deemed to have sold all goods in the order in which they were invoiced to you.
9.10 Until such time as title in the Products passes to you (and provided the Products are still in existence and have not been resold), we shall be entitled at
any time to require you to deliver-up the Products to us and, if you fail to do so, we, our agents and/or employees, may forthwith enter upon any of
the Site and/or your property/premises and/ or the property/premises of any third party where the Products are and repossess the Products. If the
Products have been incorporated into any property within your control, we may dismantle the Products or detach them from any items and you shall
be liable to us for all costs incurred in so doing and for any diminution in the value of the Products suffered by us, or loss of profit on the resale of the
Products.
9.11 You shall not be entitled to encumber or in any way charge any of the Products in which legal title remains vested in us. If you do so, all monies owing
by you to us shall (without prejudice to any other right or remedy of ours) forthwith become due and payable.
