4.1 Delivery of the Goods shall take place at the Delivery Point. Acceptance of any change to the Delivery Point

requested by the Buyer shall be at Adelphi’s sole discretion and the Buyer shall be liable for any additional

expenses incurred by Adelphi as a result of such change. Adelphi shall arrange for suitable transport to the

Adelphi is unable to deliver the Goods on time because the Buyer has not provided appropriate instructions,

number.

5. Non-delivery

business shall be conclusive evidence of the description of Goods received by the Buyer on delivery unless

the Buyer can provide conclusive evidence proving the contrary.

5.2 Adelphi shall not be liable for any non-delivery of Goods (even if caused by Adelphi’s negligence) unless the

Buyer gives written notice to Adelphi of the non-delivery within 3 Business Days of the date when the Goods

would in the ordinary course of events have been received.

5.3 Any liability of Adelphi for non-delivery of the Goods shall be limited to replacing the Goods within a

reasonable time or issuing a credit note at the pro rata Contract rate against any invoice raised for such

Goods.

6.1 Risk in and responsibility for the Goods shall pass to the Buyer once they have been delivered to the carrier

appointed to deliver the Goods to the Delivery Point, subject always to Condition 4.5.1.

6.2 Ownership of the Goods shall not pass to the Buyer until Adelphi has received in full (in cash or cleared

funds) payment of all monies owed by the Buyer to Adelphi. Adelphi shall be entitled to recover payment for

the Goods notwithstanding that ownership of any of the Goods has not passed from Adelphi.

6.3 Until ownership of the Goods has passed to the Buyer, the Buyer shall:

6.3.1 hold the Goods on a fiduciary basis as Adelphi’s bailee;

the Goods remain readily identifiable as Adelphi’s property;

6.3.3 not destroy, deface or obscure any identifying mark or packaging on or relating to the Goods; and

6.3.4 maintain the Goods in satisfactory condition and keep them insured on Adelphi’s behalf for their full price

against all risks to the reasonable satisfaction of Adelphi and any proceeds of the insurance policy shall be

held on trust for Adelphi in a separate account in the joint names of Adelphi and the Buyer. The Buyer shall

not mix the insurance proceeds with any other money nor pay the proceeds into an overdrawn bank account.

The Buyer shall account to Adelphi for the proceeds accordingly and make good any shortfall in the amount

due to Adelphi. On request, the Buyer shall produce the policy of insurance to Adelphi.

6.4.2 the Buyer makes any voluntary arrangement with its creditors or becomes subject to an administration order;

6.4.5 any analogous proceeding, event or action occurs in any jurisdiction.

irrevocable licence at any time to enter any premises where the Goods are or may be stored in order to

inspect or recover them.

6.6 On termination of the Contract, howsoever caused, Adelphi’s (but not the Buyer’s) rights contained in this

condition 6 shall remain in effect.

7. Import and export licences

The Buyer is responsible for obtaining, at its own cost, such import licences and other consents in relation to

the Goods as are required from time to time and, if required by Adelphi, the Buyer shall make those licences

and consents available to Adelphi prior to the relevant shipment.

value added tax, any similar sales tax or any tax that replaces such sales taxes (all of such additional

amounts the Buyer shall pay when it is due to pay for the Goods). If the Buyer is required under any a

applicable law to withhold or deduct any amount from the payments due to Adelphi, the Buyer shall increase

the sum it pays to Adelphi by the amount necessary to leave Adelphi with an amount equal to the sum it

would have received if no such withholdings or deductions had been made.

8.4 Except as otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, Adelphi shall invoice the Buyer and the Buyer shall pay

all such invoices within 28 calendar days of the date of the invoice notwithstanding that delivery may not have

taken place and that property in the Goods may not have passed to the Buyer.

Adelphi has received payment in cleared funds.

8.6 If the Buyer does not make payment on or before the date on which it is due, interest shall be payable on the

overdue amount at the rate which is 4% above the Bank of England base rate from time to time accruing on a

daily basis until payment is made, whether before or after any judgment.

8.7 The Buyer shall make all payments due under the Contract without any deduction by way of set-off,

counterclaim, discount or otherwise.

The Buyer shall be liable to pay a cancellation fee to Adelphi equal to 50% of the total price payable for the Goods if it

cancels the Contract within 10 Business Days of creation. The Buyer shall be liable to pay a cancellation fee to Adelphi

equal to the full amount of the price payable for the Goods if it cancels the Contract more than 10 Business Days after

10.5 Subject to conditions 10.3 and 10.4, if any of the Goods do not conform with the warranties in condition 10.2 Adelphi

shall at its option repair or replace such Goods (or the defective part) or refund the price of such Goods at the pro rata

Contract rate provided that, if Adelphi so requests, the Buyer shall, at the Buyer’s expense, return the Goods or the part

of such Goods which is defective to Adelphi.
