2 GENERAL.

2.1 These Conditions shall apply to all contracts for the supply of Services by the Company to the Customer.

2.2 Following the receipt of the Customer’s order but before the commencement of supply of the Services, the Company will submit to the Customer a Quotation which shall specify the services to be performed and the fees which shall be payable for those services and a Contract based upon that Quotation and subject to these Conditions will arise between the Company and the Customer, unless the Customer notifies the Company within 48 hours that the Customer does not agree with the contents of the Quotation. All Quotations shall be subject to these Conditions.

2.3 Without limiting the generality of Condition 8.5, where any Services are to be performed by the Company in accordance with any Input Material and/or any specification submitted by the Customer, the Customer shall hold the Company harmless and shall fully indemnify the Company against any and all loss, damage, costs and expenses awarded against or incurred by the Company in connection with, or paid or agreed to be paid by, the Company, in settlement of any claim for infringement of any Intellectual Property Rights of any other person resulting from the Company’s use of any Input Material and/or any specification so submitted.

2.4 The Company shall use all reasonable endeavours to deliver and complete the performance of the Services within any estimated time frames but time shall not be of the essence in the performance of the Services.

3 FEES AND PAYMENT.

3.1 Unless otherwise agreed in writing, full payment to the Company for the Services shall be due upon receipt of order and any and all applicable fees shall be similarly payable at such time together with value added tax at prevailing rates. Where the Company agrees to accept payment or part-payment at any time after receipt of order, payment shall be due within 30 days of the date of the relevant invoice, time for payment shall be of the essence and:

i. Failure by the Customer to make any payment by its due date shall entitle the Company to: a) at its option, to charge interest at the rate of four percent (4%) per annum above National Westminster Bank’s base lending rate from time to time calculated on a daily basis, until payment in full is made (a part of a month being treated as a full month for the purpose of calculating interest); b) to charge the Customer with any costs incurred by the Company in the course of collecting outstanding monies due to the Company from the Customer; c) suspend any warranty for the Services, whether or not they have been paid for; and d) set off any amount owed by the Company to the Customer against any amount owed by the Customer to the Company on any account whatsoever. The Company reserves the right to claim interest under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998;

ii. No payment shall be deemed to have been received until the Company has received cleared funds. In the event that the Customer tenders payment by cheque and said cheque is returned unpaid to the Company, the Customer shall reimburse the Company for any bank charges incurred by the Company;

iii. All payments payable to the Company under the Contract shall become due immediately on its termination despite any other provision; and iv. The Customer shall make all payments due under the Contract in full without any deduction whether by way of set-off, counterclaim, discount, abatement or otherwise unless the Customer has a valid court order requiring an amount equal to such deduction to be paid by the Company to the Customer.

3.2 The price for the Services will be confirmed in the Quotation which is valid for a period of 30 days.

3.3 The Company reserves the right to change the prices payable for the Services in future quotations.

3.4 Unpaid fees may result in the termination or suspension of the Services to the Customer.

4 CUSTOMER’S OBLIGATIONS.

4.1 To enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Contract the Customer shall:

4.1.1 promptly and fully co-operate with the Company;

4.1.2 provide the Company with any information reasonably required by the Company (including but not limited to any Input Material so required);

4.1.3 obtain all necessary permissions and consents which may be required before the commencement of performance of the Services and

4.1.4 comply with such other requirements as may be set out in the Quotation or otherwise agreed between the parties.

4.2 The Customer shall be liable to fully and promptly compensate the Company for any costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Company as a result of the Customer’s failure to comply with Condition 4.1.

4.3 Without prejudice to any other right or remedy to which the Company may be entitled, in the event that the Customer unlawfully terminates or cancels the services agreed to in the Quotation, the Customer shall be promptly required to pay to the Company as agreed damages and not as a penalty the full amount of any costs, charges or expenses which the Company has incurred or agreed to incur in relation to those services and in respect of cancellations on less than five working days’ written notice the full amount of the services contracted for as set out in the Quotation, and in either event the Customer acknowledges and agrees this is a genuine pre-estimate of the Company’s losses in such a case. For the avoidance of doubt, the Customer’s failure to comply with any obligation under Condition 4.1 shall be deemed to amount to a cancellation of the Services pursuant to this Condition 4.3 and without limiting any other right or remedy of the Company as aforesaid, shall give rise to the payment of the damages set out in this Condition.

4.4 In the event that the Customer or any third party, not being a sub-contractor of the Company, shall omit or commit anything which prevents or delays the Company from undertaking or complying with any of its obligations under this Contract, then the Company shall notify the Customer as soon as practicable and:

4.4.1 the Company shall have no liability with respect to any failure or delay in the performance of any obligations hereunder ;

4.4.2 any applicable timetable for the performance of any of the Company’s obligations will be modified appropriately;
