In addition, Morningside reserves the right to amend any specification of Goods if required by any applicable statutory or regulatory requirements. 2.8.

Unless specified otherwise by Morningside in writing, payment shall be made by the Buyer in the currency specified in any acknowledgement of order or quotation or invoice issued by Morningside. 3.2. Unless agreed otherwise in writing Morningside shall be entitled to increase its prices at any time prior to despatch to take account of any increase in the cost to Morningside of purchasing or supplying the Goods (including but not limited to any increase arising from any changes to the Buyer’s order requested by the Buyer or any change in carriage charges, insurance premiums, exchange rates, taxes or customs duties, and increases in labour, materials and other manufacturing costs) and such increased prices ruling at the date of despatch by Morningside shall be substituted for the previous Contract price. 3.3.

If Morningside have agreed with the Buyer that Morningside shall be responsible for the delivery the Goods to the Buyer, Morningside shall arrange for delivery of such Goods to the location set out in the Contract. Please note that due to regulatory requirements, Morningside may not be able to alter the location of delivery from an approved delivery location after a Contract has formed. 4.3. If the Contract is an International Supply Contract, Morningside and the Buyer shall agree as part of the order process which of the Incoterms shall apply to the Contract and this shall be specified in any pro-forma invoice by Morningside. In the event that an Incoterm is not specified, Morningside shall deliver all Goods EXW (Exworks). All claims for international sales should be sent by email to intl@morningsidepharm.com 4.4. In the event of any inconsistency between Incoterms and any express term of the Contract the latter shall prevail. Morningside shall be under no obligation to give the Buyer the notice specified in section 32(3) of the Sale of Goods Act 1979. 4.5. If the Buyer fails or refuses to take delivery of the Goods at the time and place stated for delivery, or the Buyer fails to give Morningside adequate delivery instructions then, without prejudice to any other rights Morningside may have, Morningside may: 4.5.1 store the Goods until actual delivery and charge the Buyer for the reasonable costs (including but not limited to insurance) of storage and abortive delivery costs and associated costs; and/or 4.5.2. sell the Goods at the best price reasonably obtainable and (after deducting all reasonable storage and selling and other expenses of Morningside) account to the Buyer for the excess over the price under the Contract after deducting Morningside’s costs and expenses or charge the Buyer for any shortfall below the price under the Contract. 4.6. All delivery and performance dates quoted by Morningside or included in the Contract are given in good faith but are estimates only. Morningside reserves the right to change delivery dates and shall notify the Buyer as soon as reasonably practicable. Time for delivery and/or performance shall not be of the essence of the Contract and Morningside shall have no liability for late delivery or performance. Morningside shall also be entitled to defer delivery until all monies due from the Buyer (whether under the Contract or otherwise) have been received. 4.7. Morningside may at its discretion deliver the Goods by instalments and invoice the Buyer for each instalment individually. Failure by Morningside to deliver any one or more of the instalments or any claim by the Buyer in respect of one or more of the instalments shall not entitle the Buyer to refuse to accept delivery of any other instalment. 4.8. If Morningside delivers a quantity of Goods up to ten per cent more or less than the quantity stated in the Contract the Buyer shall not be entitled to object to or reject the Goods or any of them by reason of the surplus or shortfall, and the Contract price shall be adjusted on a pro rata basis to take account of such surplus or shortfall. 4.9. Unless specified otherwise by Morningside or unless the Contract is an International Supply Contract, in which case the Incoterms shall apply (such relevant Incoterm having been specified in any Contract or proforma invoice, or otherwise being EXW (Exworks) if unspecified), delivery shall take place immediately prior to the offloading of the Goods at the Buyer’s premises or at such other premises as the Buyer and Morningside may agree. 4.10.

Title and Risk 5.1. Except where the Contract is an International Supply Contract, in which case the latest edition of Incoterms current at the date of the Contract shall apply, risk in the Goods will pass to the Buyer on the earlier of:- 5.1.1. completion of delivery in accordance with clause 4 above; 5.1.2. when the Goods are ready for delivery but delivery is postponed at the Buyer’s request; or 5.1.3. the date on which the Buyer fails to take delivery in accordance with the Contract. 5.2.
