1. The Company only does business upon, and subject to, the terms and conditions printed below. Any statements whether oral or in writing otherwise capable of being treated as representations made by, or on behalf of, the Company prior to the issue of this Sale Note are withdrawn and superseded by these Conditions; and these Conditions shall prevail in the event of any conflict between any provision herein contained and any terms contained in any document of the Buyer (whether received by the Company before or after the issue of this Sale Note) unless the Company specifically confirms in writing to the Buyer any variation to these conditions.

2. (A) Any descriptions and illustrations in Rumraisin Limited’s catalogues, lists, other advertising matter or by way of samples are intended merely to present a general idea of the goods described therein, and : neither shall they form part of any description of the Goods, nor shall they be constituted thereby a sale by sample nor shall they constitute representations made by the Company prior to the conclusion of the Contract.

(B) All specifications overleaf are subject to the normal tolerance margins. The company reserves the right to correct any typographical or clerical errors appearing overleaf.

(C) Unless expressly stated otherwise prices relate to unassembled goods.

3. Without prejudice to its liability hereunder, the Company reserves the right to transfer any order accepted by itself to any of its subsidiary and/or associated companies.

4. The Company shall not be responsible for any loss or damage, caused to the Buyer by a delay in or non-performance of the Contract arising whether directly or indirectly from circumstances outside the control of the Company, including but not limited to accidents to machinery, fire flood, drought, force majeure, strikes, lock-outs, shortage of labour or materials, governmental action, or war, or other civil accommodation; and the Company’s obligations hereunder shall be suspended for the duration of any such factor.

(D) Time for payment for the Goods shall be of the essence and failure to make any payment on the due date shall entitle the Company to treat the Contract as repudiated and act accordingly. Without prejudice to the foregoing, failure by the Buyer to pay for any goods (whether under this or any other Contract with either the Company or any of its subsidiary or associated companies) on the due date applicable thereto shall entitle the Company at its option to cancel the order of any undelivered Goods whether under this or any other contract.

(E) If the Buyer shall not have taken delivery of the Goods within seven days of the agreed delivery date, the Company shall (without prejudice to its other rights) be entitled to store the Goods either at its own premises or elsewhere and be paid the costs of and incidental to such storage by the Buyer.

(iv) Any defect is not due to wear and tear, neglect, abnormal use or misuse.

(B) No undertaking is given by the Company under the foregoing paragraph (A) in respect of any defects which were or ought to have been discovered by the Buyer on a reasonable examination of the Goods prior to the conclusion of the Contract provided that the Buyer was given the opportunity of making such an examination at that time.
