2. Interpretation

(a) The headings used do not form part of the Conditions and are for convenience only.

(b) Where the context admits or requires words importing the singular number will include the plural number, those denoting a given gender will include all other genders and those denoting natural persons will include corporations.

(c)“Including" is not a term of limitation.

3. Contracts and Quotes

(a) The contract between the Customer and the Supplier is constituted by: (i) these Conditions; (ii) the terms of any credit agreement between the Customer and the Supplier (“Credit Terms”); and (iii) the extent to which the Supplier accepts an order in accordance with clause 3(b) (each a “Contract”).  The Conditions, the Credit Terms and the extent to which the Supplier accepts the order govern all contracts for the supply of goods by the Supplier to the Customer and constitute the entire agreement in connection with the supply of goods between the Supplier and the Customer.  To the extent of any inconsistency, the order or precedence set out in clauses 3(a)(i) to (iii) applies. All prior representations, trade custom or previous dealings between the Supplier and the Customer are excluded and are not applicable in the interpretation of the Contract.  No modification or variation to the Conditions or the Credit Terms, any additional terms or conditions or any terms inconsistent with the Conditions or the Credit Terms provided by the Customer (whether put forward in the order, the Customer’s specification or otherwise) will bind the Supplier, unless expressly and specifically agreed to in writing by the Supplier.  The Conditions and the Credit Terms supersede any terms and conditions which have previously governed a contract for the sale of goods by the Supplier to the Customer.  The Conditions and Credit Terms will prevail to the extent of any inconsistency between them and any quotation, order or other documents from the Customer.  The Conditions and Credit Terms bind the Customer even if the Supplier or the Customer does not sign them promptly or at all.

(b) A quotation will not constitute an offer to sell goods to the Customer. The prices in a quotation shall be valid for a period of 30 days from the date of issue unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Supplier. No contract for the supply of goods will exist between the Supplier and the Customer until a Customer's order for goods has been accepted by the Supplier (such acceptance of the Customer's orders may be made and communicated by the Supplier in writing or by overt act of acceptance). The Customer will be under no obligation to place an order with the Supplier. The Supplier may accept or refuse any order for goods in its absolute discretion, on terms required by the Supplier (and the Customer may reject those terms in writing within five days of receipt otherwise they are deemed accepted by the Customer) and may make its acceptance of an order conditional upon it receiving a satisfactory credit assessment of the Customer.

(c) Subject to clause 4, the Supplier may vary the Conditions or Credit Terms by notice in writing to the Customer. If the Contract is a Consumer Contract or a Small Business Contract, then the Customer may consider the variation and, if not acceptable, may elect not to proceed with the purchase of the goods ordered before the date of the variation but which are intended to be subject to the variation. If the Contract is not a Consumer Contract or a Small Business Contract, the Customer agrees that goods delivered and/or ordered after the date of the notice of the variation will be subject to the variation and acceptance of the goods or the placing of the order will be deemed to be an acceptance of such varied terms and conditions.

(d) Should there be any variation to any of the information supplied by the Customer to the Supplier in any credit application or there has been a change of control of the Customer or in the structure or nature of the Customer's business (such as a conversion to or from a company or trust) the Customer will notify the Supplier in writing within 28 days of the variation occurring.

(e) The Conditions and all obligations under any Contract will be binding on the Customer's personal representatives, successors and permitted assigns and will be for the benefit of the Supplier's successors and assigns.

4. Pricing/Payment

(a) Notwithstanding any prior acknowledgment by the Supplier of the price of goods, except where expressly agreed otherwise, the prices specified for goods may at the Supplier's option be subject to alteration to reflect the Supplier’s prices and charges in effect at the time of delivery or performance. Any such price change will only be applicable to Customer orders not yet accepted by the Supplier, provided the Customer is given 30 days prior notice of the price change. The Customer may consider any variation referred to in this clause 4(a) and, if not acceptable, may elect not to proceed with the purchase of the goods which are intended to be subject to the variation.

(b) The Customer must not assert any right of set off against the Supplier and will pay all amounts owing to the Supplier without deduction.

(c) Where credit is extended to the Customer, all account invoices and statements will be submitted by the Supplier electronically ("E-invoice") to the Customer via the Customer's nominated email address.

(d) The Supplier will not, generally, send a paper copy of the invoice or statement unless the Customer requests it. The Customer can obtain a paper copy of the invoice or statement by sending a written request to the Supplier. The Customer acknowledges that the Supplier will charge a $5 service fee for the delivery of paper copies of invoices or statements ("Service Fee") and agrees to pay such fee on demand. The Supplier may vary the Service Fee to reflect changes in administration costs from time to time by written notice to the Customer.

(e) Where the Supplier submits an E-invoice to the Customer's nominated email address, the E-invoice will be deemed to have been received by the Customer on the date it was sent unless the Supplier receives a notification that the email did not reach its intended recipient and the records of the Supplier will be conclusive in this regard.

(f) It is the Customer's responsibility to ensure that the contact information provided to the Supplier is current and accurate including the Customer's nominated email address, which the Supplier will use to submit the E-invoice. The Customer agrees to promptly notify the Supplier of any changes to the Customer's contact information.

(g) Unless otherwise agreed to by the Supplier, the only accepted means of paying accounts will be by cash, bank cheque, BPAY, Visa, Mastercard, American Express, COD or electronic funds transfer.

(h) A payment surcharge is payable by the Customer if accounts are paid using Visa, Mastercard or American Express credit accounts or accounts using contactless payments (ie: PayWave, PayPass).  The payment surcharge is a percentage of the amount being paid and varies depending on the payment method used.  The current surcharge rate will be notified by the Supplier in the Monthly Payment Statement, E-Invoice or otherwise.

(i) Subject to clause 4(a), unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing, the amount payable for goods will be the price on the Supplier’s invoice.  The price is exclusive of any freight charges, payment surcharges, customs duty and GST or similar taxes, which the Customer will pay in addition to the price at the same time and in the same manner as the price. The payment surcharge is payable at the same time as the account to which it relates is due.

(j) Payments received by the Supplier will be applied first in payment of interest and any costs of and incidental to debt recovery and any amounts payable pursuant to clause 4(i) and then in reduction of the principal.

(k) Payments received without remittance advice will be applied first to the oldest balance owing by the Customer.

(l) The Supplier reserves the right to cancel all trade discounts or rebates in the event that the Customer fails to comply with these Conditions.

5. Account Terms

(a) Until the Supplier confirms that a credit facility has been granted to the Customer, all goods must be paid for on a cash on delivery or performance basis.  If a credit facility has been granted, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Supplier, the Supplier will issue a tax invoice for the goods and the Customer will pay for all goods delivered or collected in any calendar month on or before the last trading day in the following month.

(b) Credit extended to the Customer for all goods sold will be made in accordance with the Credit Terms. In all other respects, the Conditions will apply.

(c) If the Customer does not pay the Supplier by the due date, the Customer will pay interest on monies due, charged on a daily basis at the Interest Rate from the due date for payment until the actual date of payment. If the Customer has an account with the Supplier, the Supplier may debit the Customer's account monthly or at such other times it chooses for such interest and it will be payable together with the overdue amount. 

(d) If the Customer is in default of any payment, the Customer will pay any legal costs (on a full indemnity basis), stamp duties, any bank charges or merchant fees or like charges levied on the Supplier by any banker or other credit provider whose banking or credit card facilities are utilised by the Customer for paying the Supplier any amounts on any account and any other expenses payable of and incidental to the performance or enforcement of or any litigation on the Contract or any credit application or any security documents signed by the Customer or any Guarantor together with any other collection costs and dishonoured cheque fees.

(e) Despite any other clause in the Contract, the Supplier may without notice alter the Customer's credit limit or withdraw credit completely for any reason at its discretion. The Supplier will notify the Customer of any alteration in the credit limit by notice to that effect in the following monthly account statement. Any credit approval limit noted in this form, any monthly statement or otherwise is for the Supplier's convenience only and does not reflect what may actually be the credit limit of the account at any one time.

(f) The Customer is liable for all purchases made under its account number and/or account name. It is not the responsibility of the Supplier to confirm authority for the purposes of supplying goods to the Customer, its agent(s) or those who the Supplier deems to be its agents. It is the sole responsibility of the Customer to ensure there is no unauthorised use of their account number or name.

(g) If the Customer is in default of a payment, the Supplier may in its absolute discretion charge a late payment administration fee ("Late Payment Fee").   The Late Payment Fee will be $10 per month or such lesser amount as determined by the Supplier. The Supplier may debit the Late Payment Fee to the Customer's account annually in advance or at such other times as the Supplier determines.

(h) If the Contract is not a Consumer Contract or a Small Business Contract, a statement in writing signed by the Supplier’s Credit Manager stating the monies payable by the Customer to the Supplier shall be prima facie evidence of the amounts so payable.

6. Personal Property Securities Act

(a) The Customer agrees that the Conditions may create a PMSI in the goods (and their proceeds) supplied presently and in the future by the Supplier to the Customer and a security interest in the personal property of the Customer.

(b) The Customer agrees to do all things necessary and execute all documents reasonably required to register the security interests granted by the Customer under the Conditions and to ensure that the Supplier acquires perfected security interests under the PPSA.

(c) The Customer will, upon demand, pay all of the Supplier's expenses and legal costs (on a solicitor/agent/client basis) in relation to or in connection with the registration of the Supplier's security interests and all other costs associated with protection and enforcement of the Supplier's security interests created by the Conditions or by undertaking an audit under the provisions of the PPSA which the Supplier considers reasonably necessary in order to protect its legitimate interests under the Contract, or the repossession of the goods the subject of the Conditions or the exercise, enforcement or preservation of any right or interest under the Conditions or any contract that the Supplier has with the Customer.

(d) This PMSI does not lose its priority as a result of the renewal, refinance, consolidation or restructure of the subject matter of the Conditions and any purchase money obligations.

(x) redeem the goods (Australia: s142); (NZ: s132, 133);

(xi) reinstate the security agreement (Australia: s143); (NZ: s133); and

(xii) receive a notice of any verification statement (Australia: s157(1) and 157(3)); (NZ s145);

(f) If the Customer goes into bankruptcy or is wound up, they agree and provide authority for the Supplier to enforce this security agreement against the third party for payment or collection of the goods in accordance with section 20 of the PPSA (NZ equivalent s109).

(g) To the extent permitted by the PPSA, the Conditions exclude any provisions of the PPSA which may be excluded in the Supplier's discretion and which would otherwise confer rights on the Customer.

(h) The Customer further agrees that where the Supplier has rights in addition to those under Part 4 of the PPSA (NZ equivalent Part 9), those rights will continue to apply.

The Customer (its successors and assigns, including any external manager or administrator) will not object to the Supplier, or its agents, entering any premises for the purpose of this clause and agrees to indemnify and keep the Supplier indemnified in respect of any claims, actions and costs that may arise against the Supplier in relation to the removal, repossession and sale of the goods pursuant to the Conditions including any claims brought by third parties.

(k) The Customer agrees that repossession and retention of the goods pursuant to the PPSA will only satisfy so much of the monies which may become payable to the Supplier by the Customer as is equivalent to the Supplier's estimation of the market value of the goods as it is at the date of repossession and the repossession and retention will immediately extinguish any rights for interest the Supplier has on the value of the goods recovered.

(ii) the goods must be stored separately and in a manner enabling them to be identified as goods of the Supplier and cross-referenced to particular invoices and the Customer acknowledges that if it should process or mix the goods with other products or items such that the goods are no longer separately identifiable then the Customer and the Supplier will be owners in common of the new product; and

(iii) the Customer may sell the goods in the ordinary course of its business as bailee for the Supplier and will hold the proceeds of sale in a separate account on trust for the Supplier and account to the Supplier for those proceeds.

(c) The Customer will insure the goods against theft or any damage until such goods have been paid for or until they are sold by the Customer whichever occurs first and the Supplier will be entitled to call for details of the insurance policy.

10. Special Orders and Specifications in General

The Customer warrants to the Supplier that all drawings and specifications and other design information provided to the Supplier for the manufacture of special orders or tooling are accurate and correct in all respects and do not infringe upon the intellectual property rights of any third party including any copyright, patents, designs or trademarks of a third party.

(a) Subject to clause 11(e), unless agreed in writing by the Supplier, the Supplier will not accept the return of goods.

(e) If the Customer believes the goods do not comply with the statutory guarantees, they must contact the Supplier and the parties may make arrangements for the return of the goods.

If the Supplier agrees that the goods do not comply with the statutory guarantee the Supplier will refund the costs of returning the goods to the Supplier and, in all other respects, act in accordance with its obligations under the Australian Consumer Law.

(f) Subject to clause 11(d), all other terms, representations, warranties, guarantees and conditions that might otherwise be granted or implied by Law are expressly excluded to the maximum extent permitted by Law, unless agreed by the Supplier in writing.  The Supplier does not exclude, restrict or modify any liability that cannot be excluded, restricted or modified except to a limited extent, as between the Supplier and the Customer by Law.

12. Return of Goods (Non Consumers)

If the Customer is not a Consumer, the provisions of this clause 12 apply:

(a) Unless agreed in writing by the Supplier, the Supplier will not accept the return of goods. Goods accepted for return by the Supplier may attract a charge to recover restocking and repackaging charges. The amount of this charge will be determined by the Supplier and debited to the credit account of the Customer.

(b) The proof of purchase from the Customer must accompany all goods returned to the Supplier.

(c) All claims for the Supplier's failure to comply with the Customer’s order whether due to shortfall, defect, incorrect delivery or otherwise must be made by giving written notice to the Supplier within fourteen (14) days from the date of delivery of goods. If the Customer fails to provide such notice then the Customer will be deemed to have accepted the goods.

(d) All terms, representations, warranties and conditions that might otherwise be granted or implied by Law are expressly excluded to the maximum extent permitted by Law, unless the Supplier agrees in writing.  The Supplier does not exclude, restrict or modify any liability that cannot be excluded, restricted or modified except to a limited extent, as between the Supplier and the Customer by Law.

(e) The Supplier’s liability for breach of a non-excludable condition or warranty is limited at the Supplier's option, to any one of the following:

(i) the replacement of the goods or the supply of equivalent goods;

(iii) the payment of the cost of providing replacement goods or of acquiring equivalent goods;

(iv) the payment of the cost of having the goods repaired; or

13. Indemnity

(a) If the Customer defaults in the performance or observance of its obligations under any Contract of which these Conditions form part, then:

(i) the Supplier will give the Customer notice of such default and request that the Customer remedies any breach within the time stipulated in these Conditions or, if no time is stipulated, a reasonable time; and

(ii) if that breach is not remedied within the time stipulated in the notice, then the Customer will indemnify the Supplier in respect of loss, damage, costs (including collection costs, bank dishonour fees, and legal costs on an indemnity basis) that the Supplier has suffered arising therefrom.

(c) The Customer’s liability to indemnify the Supplier under a provision of the Contract (including these Conditions) will be reduced proportionally to the extent that any fraud, negligence, or wilful misconduct by the Supplier or a breach of the Supplier’s obligations under Contract or the Supplier’s breach of Law has contributed to the claim, loss, damage, or cost which is the subject of the indemnity.

(d) Each indemnity in a Contract is a continuing obligation separate and independent from the Customer’s other obligations and survives the termination or performance of any Contract of which these Conditions form part.

(e) For each indemnity in a Contract, the Supplier will take steps to mitigate its loss and damage and act reasonably in relation to the applicable default by the Customer.

(f) Without limiting clauses 13(a), the Customer indemnifies the Supplier for any loss, cost, damage or expense suffered by the Supplier arising from any failure to install the goods in accordance with their applicable installation instructions and manuals provided with the goods or to operate the goods in accordance with their applicable operation instructions and manuals provided with the goods, or in connection with the negligence of the Customer including in relation to the installation or operation of the goods.

(g) To the extent permitted by law, neither the Customer or Supplier are liable to the other for:

(i) any loss, cost, damage or expense to the extent that it is for indirect, special, economic or consequential loss, where consequential loss means any loss, cost, damage or expense beyond the normal measure and beyond that which every plaintiff in a like situation would suffer; and

(ii) any loss of revenue, business or profits of any nature whatsoever, loss of expected savings, loss of chance or business opportunity, business interruption, loss or reduction of goodwill or damage to reputation or any loss of value of intellectual property.
