3. The Company reserves the right to amend any accidental error or omission on quotations, order acknowledgements, invoices or credit notes.
4. Although all delivery dates stated by the Company are given in good faith and all reasonable efforts will be made to adhere to them, the Company accepts no liability for any failure to comply with such dates by reason of any cause beyond the Company's reasonable control. Time of delivery shall not be of the essence.
5. The Company shall be entitled to make partial deliveries and failure to deliver part only of any order shall not entitle the customer to reject the Goods.
6. If the customer fails to take delivery of the Goods on the date of delivery, the Company shall, without prejudice to its other rights, be entitled to store the Goods at the customer's risk and the customer shall pay all storage and additional carriage costs incurred.

On returns that require repackaging or reboxing, an appropriate charge will be made.
20. Goods which the Company has agreed to sell to the customer shall be at the customer's risk as soon as they are delivered to the customer's UK premises or other agreed destination.

(d) without prejudice to the equitable rules as to tracing, in the event of failure to pay any and all the payments for the Goods in accordance with these Conditions the Company shall have power to re-sell the Goods, such power being additional to (and not in substitution for) any other power of sale arising by operation of law or implication or otherwise and for such purpose the Company and its servants and agents may forthwith enter upon any premises or land occupied or owned by the customer to remove the Goods, and;
(e) pending payment of any and all payments due hereunder for the Goods the customer shall at all times keep the Goods comprehensively insured against loss or damage by accident, fire, theft and other risks usually covered by insurance in the type of business carried on by the customer in an amount at least equal to the balance of thepayments due hereunder for the same from time to time remaining outstanding. The policy shall bear an endorsement recording the Company's interest.

By placing any order with the Company the customer shall be deemed to have agreed to and accepted these Terms. In these Terms "Contract" means the contract for the supply of Goods formed by the Company's acceptance of the customer's order.
1.No order will be binding upon the Company unless and until accepted by the Company in writing or by delivery of any goods the subject of the order ("Goods").
2.Orders are accepted only on the basis that these Terms (or varied as aforesaid) apply to the order. Accordingly any terms endorsed on or referred to in any customer's order or confirmation or otherwise communicated to the Company which are inconsistent with these Terms and are not specifically agreed to in writing by the Company, shall be deemed to be superseded and nullified by these Terms.
3.The Company reserves the right to amend any accidental error or omission on quotations, order acknowledgements, invoices or credit notes.
4.Although all delivery dates stated by the Company are given in good faith and all reasonable efforts will be made to adhere to them, the Company accepts no liability for any failure to comply with such dates by reason of any cause beyond the Company's reasonable control. Time of delivery shall not be of the essence.
5.The Company shall be entitled to make partial deliveries and failure to deliver part only of any order shall not entitle the customer to reject the Goods.
6.If the customer fails to take delivery of the Goods on the date of delivery, the Company shall, without prejudice to its other rights, be entitled to store the Goods at the customer's risk and the customer shall pay all storage and additional carriage costs incurred.
7.Whilst every effort will be made to supply Goods in accordance with samples and/or agreed specifications the Company reserves the right to modify specifications, designs and materials where such modifications do not materially affect the quality or fitness for purpose of the Goods or to comply with any applicable standards or legal requirements.
8.The Company will identify on its official order forms, specific surcharges that may be applied on orders placed. Such surcharges will be detailed and confirmed in the official Order Confirmation.
9.Unless otherwise notified to the customer, Goods will be invoiced at the price stipulated in the Company's published price list current at the date of the acceptance of the order. Such prices are exclusive of VAT. Payment of all sums shall be made in US Dollars by Confirmed, Irrevocable Letter Of Credit payable at Sight, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company.
10.Unless otherwise agreed, the Company shall invoice the Goods on or after despatch of the Goods.

Such prices are exclusive of VAT. The Company shall be entitled to invoice each instalment as and when each instalment is despatched.
12.If any payment is not made in full by the due date then, without affecting any other right which it may have, the Company may deduct any outstanding amounts from any monies owed to the customer on any account whatsoever.
13.Interest on any outstanding amounts may be charged, which shall accrue from the due payment date until the date of payment at a rate of three percent (3%) above the National Westminster Bank plc's base lending rate from time to time in force.

14.The customer may not withhold or make any deduction from or set off against any payment due to the Company for any reason.
15.The Company may sue for any monies outstanding, even if property in any of the relevant Goods has not passed to the customer.

17.The Company will (at the Company's option) either replace or refund the price of any Goods which are shown to the Company's reasonable satisfaction to be defective in materials or workmanship at the time of delivery, or to be a shortfall in quantity delivered, provided that:
