- charge default interest at the rate of 12% per annum on all overdue amounts (including late payment charges and amounts other than the price) calculated daily on and from the due date for payment and the parties agree that any amount so calculated is not a penalty but rather an accurate pre-estimate of the damage to be incurred by the Company. Payments received from the Customer will be credited first against any default interest, then in payment of services and then against payment of any goods, and all such charges will be payable on demand;
- claim from the Customer, all costs relating to any action taken by the Company to recover money due from the Customer including any legal costs and disbursements on a solicitor-client basis;
- cease all work remaining to be performed by the Company under the quotation and terminate any agreement in relation to delivery of products that have not been delivered prior to the Customer’s default; and
- require the payment in advance for any further products.
Delivery & Inspection
-
Any date or time quoted by the Company is an estimate only and the Company will endeavour to meet that estimate, but failure to do so will not confer on the Customer any right of cancellation on the Customer’s part or render the Company liable for any loss or damages directly or indirectly sustained by the Customer as a result thereof.
-
If the Company is required to deliver any products or materials to the site, the Company’s obligation to deliver will be discharged on arrival of the products at the Customers nominated delivery destination, nominated transport company, nominated agent or the address appearing on the quotation.
-
The Customer will examine the products or materials immediately after delivery and the Company will not be liable for any mis-delivery, shortage, defect or damage unless the Company receives details in writing from the Customer within 3 calendar days of the date of delivery of the products.
Property and Risk
-
Subject to "Property and Risk," Clause 3, notwithstanding delivery of products, title in any products supplied and/or installed will remain with the Company until the Customer has paid and discharged any and all indebtedness to the Company on any account whatsoever including all applicable sales taxes and other taxes, levies and duties. Any payment made by or on behalf of a Customer that is later avoided by the application of any Statutory Provision will be deemed not to discharge the Customer’s indebtedness and in such an event the parties are to be restored to rights each respectively would have had if the payment had not been made.
-
The risk in any products supplied and/or installed will pass to the Customer upon delivery (actual or constructive) to the Customer.
-
The Customer acknowledges that if he is in possession of any products supplied and/or installed, he holds such, solely as a fiduciary bailee for the Company until payment has been made in full to the Company.

To the extent permitted at law, the Company will not be liable to the Customer or any third party for liquidated damages in any form, any delay costs, consequential loss including (without limitation) any loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of production, loss of business opportunity, loss of goodwill, loss of business reputation, economic loss or any indirect, remote and/or unforeseeable loss. The aggregate liability of the Company in damages (however arising) in respect of any act or omission of the Company’s in connection with its obligations under these Terms and Conditions will not exceed the amount of one hundred dollars (AUD$100), even if the Company has been advised by the Customer as to the possibility of such loss being incurred.
-
As security for payment, the Customer (and where applicable each Guarantor) grants the Company a Security Interest (as defined in the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (Cth) (“PPSA”) in the outstanding payments and all after acquired property and an irrevocable right to register this interest against it or its property (as the case may be) on the Personal Property Securities Register established under Chapter 5 of the PPSA (“Register”) including (without limitation) where applicable, as a purchase money security interest. The Customer grants the Company an irrevocable right to search the Register from time to time in relation to it or its property. The Customer agrees for the purposes of the PPSA and to the extent permitted by law, Sections 95, 121(4) 128, 129, 130, 132(3)(d), 132(4), 135 and 143 of the PPSA have no application to these arrangements and the Company is not required to give notice under section 135 of the PPSA. If the Company receives any notice in relation to the Customer under section 64 of the PPSA, all outstanding payments will become immediately due and payable. The Customer agrees to pass such resolutions, execute and sign any documents or forms, as required from time to time to formalise, affirm or perfect the said Security Interest.
