(2) L4B reserves the right, by giving notice to the Buyer at any time before delivery, to increase the price of the Goods to reflect any increase in the cost to L4B which is due to any factor beyond the control of L4B (such as, without limitation, any foreign exchange fluctuation, currency regulation, alteration of duties, significant increase in the costs of labour, materials or other costs to manufacture, any change in delivery dates, quantities or specifications for the Goods which is requested by the Buyer to give L4B adequate information or instructions).

(5) L4B shall be entitled to invoice the Buyer for the price of the Goods on or at any time after delivery or collection of the Goods unless the Buyer wrongfully fails to take delivery of the Goods, in which event L4B shall be entitled to invoice the Buyer for the price at any time after L4B has notified the Buyer that the Goods are ready for collection or (as the case may be) L4B has tendered delivery of the Goods.
(6) The Buyer shall pay L4B’s invoices hereunder within 7 days of the date of invoice. Time shall be of the essence in respect of the payment of all sums due hereunder.

(1) Delivery of the Goods shall be made by the Buyer collecting the Goods at L4B’s premises at any time after L4B has notified the Buyer that the Goods are ready for collection or, if some other place for delivery is agreed by L4B, by L4B delivering the Goods to that place.

(3) If the Buyer fails to take delivery of the Goods or fails to give L4B adequate delivery instructions at the time stated for delivery otherwise than any reason of any cause beyond the Buyer’s reasonable control or by reason of L4B’s fault then, without prejudice to any other right or remedy available to L4B, L4B may
(3.1) Store the Goods until actual delivery and charge the Buyer of the reasonable costs (including insurance) of storage; or
(3.2) sell the Goods at the best price readily obtainable and (after deducting all reasonable storage and selling expenses) account to the Buyer for the excess over the price under the Contract or charge the Buyer for any shortfall below the price under the Contract.
§5 Property and Risk transfer
(1) Risk of damage to or loss of the Goods shall pass to the Buyer:
(1.1) In the case of Goods to be delivered at L4B’s premises, at the time of delivery when L4B notifies the Buyer that the Goods are available for collection; or
(1.2) In the case of Goods to be delivered otherwise than at L4B’s premises, at the time of delivery or, if the Buyer wrongfully fails to take delivery of the Goods, the time when L4B has tendered delivery of the Goods.
(2) Notwithstanding delivery and the passing of risk in the Goods, or any other provision of these Conditions, the property of the Goods shall not pass to the Buyer until L4B has received in cash or cleared funds payment in full of the price of the Goods and all other goods agreed to be sold by L4B to the Buyer for which payment is then due.
(3) Until such times as the property of the Goods passes to the Buyer, the Buyer shall hold the Goods as L4B’s fiduciary agent and bailee, and shall keep the Goods separate from those of the Buyer and third parties and properly stored, protected and insured and identified as L4B’s property. Until that time the Buyer shall be entitled to resell or use the Goods in the ordinary course of its business, but shall account to L4B for the proceeds of the sale or otherwise of the Goods, whether tangible or intangible, including insurance proceeds, and shall keep all such proceeds separate from any moneys or property of the Buyer and third parties and, in the case of tangible proceeds, properly stored, protected and insured.
(4) Until such time as the property of the Goods is passed to the Buyer (and provided the Goods are still in existence and have not been resold), L4B shall be entitled at any time to require the Buyer to deliver up the Goods to L4B and, if the Buyer fails to do so forthwith, to enter upon the premises of the Buyer of any third party where the Goods are stored and repossess the Goods.
(5) The Buyer shall not be entitled to pledge or in any way charge by way of security for any indebtedness any of the Goods which remain the property of L4B, but if the Buyer does so all moneys owing by the Buyer to L4B shall (without prejudice to any other right or remedy of L4B) forthwith become due and payable.
§6 Warranties and Liability
(1) L4B only warrants that the Goods will be free from defects in materials and workmanship to the extent that the Goods carry a manufacturer’s warranty. The Buyer shall be entitled to the benefit of such manufacturer’s warranty insofar as L4B has the power to transfer it.

(2.1) L4B shall be under no liability in respect of any defect in the Goods arising from any drawing, design or specification supplied by the Buyer;
(2.2) L4B shall be under no liability in respect of any defect arising from fair wear and tear, willful damage, negligence, abnormal working conditions, failure to follow L4B’s instructions (whether oral or in writing), misuse or alteration or repair of the Goods without L4B’s approval.
(3) Subject as expressly provided in these Conditions, and except where the Goods are sold under a consumer sale (as defined by the Sale of Goods Act 1979), all warranties, conditions or other terms implied by statute or common law are excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law.
(4) Any claim by the Buyer which is based on any defect in the quality or conditions of the Goods shall (whether or not delivery is refused by the Buyer) be notified to L4B within 7 days from the date of delivery or (where the defect or failure was not apparent on reasonable inspection) within a reasonable time after discovery of the defect or failure. If delivery is not refused, and the Buyer does not notify L4B accordingly, the Buyer shall not be entitled to reject the Goods and L4B shall have no liability for such defect or failure.
(5) Except in respect of death or personal injury caused by L4B’s negligence, L4B shall not be liable to the Buyer by reason of any representation, or any implied warranty, condition or other term, or any duty at common law, or under the express terms of the Contract, for any consequential loss or damage (whether for loss of profit or otherwise), costs, expenses or other claims for consequential compensation whatsoever (and whether caused by the negligence of L4B, its employees or agents or otherwise) which arise out of or in connection with the supply of the Goods of their use or resale by the Buyer, except as expressly provided in these Conditions.

(1.3) Shall enter into liquidation whether compulsorily or voluntarily otherwise than for the purposes of amalgamation or reconstruction without insolvency or shall compound or make any arrangement with its creditors or shall be the subject of an application for an administration order or shall be subject of any proposal under Part 1 of the Insolvency Act 1986 for a composition in satisfaction of its debts.
(2) No order which has been accepted by L4B may be cancelled by the Buyer except with the agreement in writing, of L4B and on the terms that the Buyer shall indemnify L4B in full against all loss (including loss of profit), costs (including the cost of all labour and materials used), damages, charges and expenses incurred by L4B.
(3) Any termination of a Contract (howsoever occasioned) shall not affect any accrued rights or liabilities of either party.

(2) The Buyer shall be responsible for complying with any legislation or regulations governing the importation of the Goods into the country of destination and for the payment of any duties thereon.
