These Conditions override and exclude any terms or conditions in or referred to in any negotiations or course of dealing between the Company and the Customer or set out in the Customer’s standard terms and conditions to the fullest extent permitted by law. If there is any conflict between

1. the other provisions of this Catalogue and these Conditions; or

these Conditions will prevail unless the Company agrees otherwise in writing. Together with any terms accepted in writing by the Company in connection with an order, these Conditions constitute the entire agreement between the Company and the Customer in relation to the Supplies ordered. No variation to these Conditions is permitted unless expressly authorised in writing by a director of the Company.

3. PRICES AND GST

Prices stated in the Catalogue for Supplies are in Australian dollars, inclusive of GST, other duties or taxes and any applicable transport and handling charges, which will be added at the time of despatch. The Company has used all reasonable endeavours to ensure that prices for the Supplies are accurately set out in the Catalogue but these prices are not binding and the Company reserves the right to change its prices without notice at any time. Prices charged will be those prevailing when an order is accepted. Where Supplies are to be made in instalments (‘Scheduled Delivery’) the price payable for them will be that applicable at the time of despatch of the first batch of Supplies but, where Scheduled Delivery may continue for a period of 90 days or more, the Company reserves the right to charge the Customer further amounts if the price of the Supplies increases before the end of that period.

The Company will issue a tax invoice to the Customer in relation to any supply that is subject to GST.

The amount of GST payable will be calculated by multiplying the sum of the price for the supplies plus any additional freight or other charges by the rate of GST applicable at the time of the supply. The words “supply” and “tax invoice” in this Condition 3 have the same meaning as that given to them in the A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999 (Cth).

4. PAYMENT

Where credit terms have been approved, payment is due not later than 30 days from the date of statement, without any deductions, withholding or set off. Time for payment is of the essence.

1. cancel the order or suspend any further deliveries or performance;
2. appropriate any payment made by the Customer to such of the Supplies (or the Supplies made under any other contract) as the Company may think fit; and
3. charge interest (both before and after any judgment) on the amount unpaid at the rate of 2% per annum above the Reserve Bank of Australia’s published official interest rate until payment is made in full  (a part of the month being treated as a full month for the purpose of calculating interest).

The Company reserves the right to charge for copy invoices or credit notes where the original has been lost or misplaced by the Customer. If legal action is taken to recover monies due to the Company, then the Company reserves the right to charge the Customer an amount to cover all and any costs (including legal costs) incurred by the Company.

and may be registered on the Register as a Purchase Money Security Interest.

The Customer undertakes to promptly execute any further documents and to provide any further information and to do such further acts and things as may be required by the Company to:

1. register a financing statement or financing change statement in relation to a Security Interest on the Register;

If the Description of any Goods differs from the manufacturer’s description, the latter shall be deemed to be correct. The Company shall take all reasonable steps to ensure the accuracy of Descriptions but relies on such information, if any, as may have been provided to it by its suppliers and to the fullest extent possible by law excludes all liability in contract or tort or under statute or otherwise for any error in or omission from such Descriptions whether caused by the Company’s negligence or otherwise.

Until ownership passes to the Customer, the Customer must hold the Goods on a fiduciary basis as the Company’s bailee, insure the Goods against all usual risks to full replacement value, not pledge or allow any lien, charge or other interest to arise over Goods, and store each delivery of Goods separately, clearly identified as the Company’s property and in a manner to enable them to be identified and cross referenced to particular invoices where reasonably possible. The Customer may use or sell Goods in the ordinary course of business, provided that the Customer will be agent for the Company in any sale if Goods are sold. However any such agency will only extend to the obligation to account for proceeds. The Customer will not be bound by any contract between the Customer and the Customer’s purchaser. The Customer must account to the Company for that part of the proceeds of any such sale which equates to the price of the Goods and shall hold that amount in a separate bank account on trust for the Company. The Customer will hold on trust for the Company in a separate bank account any insurance monies received by the Customer for Goods owned by the Company.

The Company’s rights as an unpaid seller will not be affected by the Company retaining title to Goods under this Condition 12.

If any payment for Supplies is not received in full by the due date, or the Customer becomes bankrupt, passes a resolution for winding up or a court shall make an order to that effect, or a receiver or administrator is appointed over any assets or the undertaking of the Customer or an execution or distress is levied against the Customer, the Customer shall not sell, use or part with possession of the Goods, and the Company shall be entitled, without previous notice and without prejudice to the Company’s other remedies, to retake possession of the Goods and for that purpose to enter upon any premises occupied or owned by the Customer.  The Customer waives the right receive any PPSA notice in connection with the Company taking possession of the Goods.
