(i) it is not Insolvent; and

(ii) there are no facts or circumstances that exist which would entitle any person or entity to institute any Insolvency Proceeding against it. “Insolvent” means if the Purchaser

(g) has a receiver, trustee or custodian appointed for any of its assets (with or without its consent);

(h) commences a self-liquidation of its assets,

(i) fails to make a payment in part or in whole under the Contract or any additional charges in respect of the Goods or Services and those payments remain unpaid after the date on which it became due,

(j) is or becomes in default of any of its obligations under the Contract, an Order, or Quotation, or

02. Until such time as the Purchaser has paid the Company in full the price of, and all additional charges in respect of, Goods supplied:

(a) will remain the sole and absolute property of the Company and the Company will reserve the right to dispose thereof;

(b) the Purchaser will be in possession of any Goods delivered to the Purchaser solely as bailee at will for the Company, and must use its best efforts to protect the Company’s interests in the Goods;

c) the Purchaser must cooperate fully with the Company in the delivery, assembly, and commissioning of the Goods at any facility used by the Purchaser, including, consenting to and facilitating the Company’s prompt access to those facilities;

(d) the Purchaser will maintain, use, and safeguard the Goods in a commercially reasonable manner at the Purchaser’s sole cost and expense. The Purchaser will comply with all of the Company’s instructions regarding the maintenance and use of the Goods. The Purchaser will maintain the Goods in compliance with all industry standards and all health and safety regulations, restrict the use and operation of the Goods to safe, careful and qualified personnel who are selected, employed and controlled by the Purchaser, and prohibit anyone other than authorized personnel of the Purchaser from making any repairs or adjustments to the Goods, in each case unless otherwise authorized in advance and in writing by the Company. Under no circumstances may the Purchaser alter or modify the Goods without the prior written consent of the Company.

(e) until the Goods have been resold or used (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is permitted in the context of the Purchaser’s normal business operations), the Purchaser will segregate the Goods on the Purchaser’s premises, separate from the Purchaser’s own Goods and those of any other person or entity in a manner which makes them readily identifiable as the Goods of the Company;

(f) The Purchaser assumes any and all risk of loss and damage to the Goods from any cause whatsoever; and

(g) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Purchaser will not allow any lien (consensual or otherwise), security interest, claim, charge, pledge, condition, equitable interest, option, mortgage, easement, encroachment, right of first refusal, restriction on use, transfer or exercise of any other attribute of ownership, or other encumbrance of any kind (collectively, “Encumbrances”) to be imposed on the Goods through the Purchaser or as a result of the Purchaser’s acts or omissions. If such an Encumbrance is imposed on the Goods, the Purchaser will immediately notify the Company, in writing, thereof and immediately take all actions necessary to promptly remove such Encumbrance. The Purchaser will not include the Goods as collateral with respect to any loan or other borrowings from lenders or otherwise hold itself out as the owner of the Goods. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the purchaser waives any encumbrance or other rights or interests that the purchaser might otherwise have or acquire in, or with respect to, the goods.

(h) The Purchaser will ensure that Goods that are the property of the Company but that are at the risk of loss of the Purchaser, are insured against all risks at all times.

Purchaser will provide to the Company a certificate of insurance evidencing compliance with the insurance requirements set forth above upon execution of any Contract. The Purchaser will provide the Company thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of any termination, lapse or material reduction in the amount or scope of coverage.

03. For all Goods sold on the Purchaser’s Account as provided in Section 5.1, the Purchaser is permitted by the Company to sell or to agree to sell to a sub-purchaser Goods supplied and delivered by the Company to the Purchaser, notwithstanding that ownership of the Goods has not passed to the Purchaser, on the express condition that such a sale or agreement to sell will, as between the Company and the Purchaser, be made by the Purchaser as principal and not as the Company’s agent, and ownership in the Goods will be deemed to pass from the Company to the Purchaser immediately before the time at which ownership in the Goods passes to the subpurchaser pursuant to the agreement to resell the Goods. Where this Section 5.3 applies, the Purchaser owes a fiduciary duty to the Company and will hold in trust for the Company such part of the proceeds that is equal to the price and additional charges at which the Goods resold were invoiced by the Company to the Purchaser, and such proceeds will not be combined with any other monies or paid into any overdrawn bank account and will at all times be identifiable as the Company’s monies and the Company will have the right to trace the said part of the proceeds.

04. Without prejudice to any other rights of the Company, if the Purchaser becomes Insolvent, at the Company’s sole option:

(a) the Purchaser’s right of possession of the Goods will cease;

(b) the Company may, by its agents, enter any premises where its Goods are stored or are reasonably believed to be stored and repossess the same without prejudice to the obligation of the Purchaser to purchase the Goods. The Purchaser will cooperate fully with the Company in the Company’s taking possession of the Goods;

(c) Subject to Sections 3.7 and 5, the Company may, with or without notice, terminate the Contract; and

(d) the Purchaser’s right of resale under Section 6.3 hereof will cease.

05. The Company may pursue any remedy available to the Company, at law or in equity, to recover amounts due to the Company for th e Goods and/or Services for which payment is due.

02. Delivery and the Purchaser’s acceptance of the Goods will be deemed to have occurred on the first of:

(a) the delivery of the Goods to the Purchaser’s carrier or his agent;

(c) the delivery of the Goods to such place as the Purchaser may reasonably specify in writing.

08. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any court having proper jurisdiction.

09. The tribunal will have the authority to enter interim, conservatory, injunctive, and declaratory relief, if appropriate under the applicable substantive law. The tribunal will have the authority to order discovery, but will also have the authority to limit the number of depositions, interrogatories and other means of discovery. The tribunal will also have the power to determine whether a dispute is arbitrable. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 16, each Party retains the right to apply for injunctive relief prior to or during the arbitration, and any such application will not be deemed to be an infringement or waiver of the ability to arbitrate under Section 15, and will not affect the relevant powers reserved to the tribunal.

10. Only damages allowed pursuant to the terms of these Conditions or any Contract entered into pursuant thereto may be awarded and, without limitation to the foregoing, the Parties are not entitled to claim, and the tribunal will have no jurisdiction to consider or award, any punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages arising under, arising out of or related to these Conditions or any Contract entered into pursuant thereto, regardless of the legal theory under which such damages may be sought and even if the Parties have been advised of the possibility of such damages or loss.

11. The Parties agree to arbitration on an individual basis. In any Dispute, neither party will be entitled to join or consolidate claims by or against a third party, or arbitrate or otherwise participate in any claim as a class representative, class member or in a private attorney general capacity. For Canada purchasers: If the foregoing dispute resolution and arbitration section is not binding upon you under the applicable law of your jurisdiction, you agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts located within Ontario, Canada for the purpose of litigating all Disputes arising out of or relating to these Conditions, which courts will have exclusive jurisdiction over all such Disputes.

18. GENERAL

01. Unless the Company expressly states or agrees otherwise, these Conditions apply to the following: (a) all Quotations issued by the Company (whether or not accepted by the Purchaser); (b) all Orders received by the Company (whether or not accepted by the Company); and (c) all Contracts made by the Company and the Purchaser for the purchase and sale of Goods or Services.

02. No alteration or addition to or exclusion of these Conditions or any part thereof will be effective unless expressly agreed in writing signed by an Authorized Representative. These Conditions supersede all previous oral or written representations made by or on behalf of the Company to the Purchaser which relate to the Goods, the Services (if any) and/or the subject matter of the Contract. Any additional terms and conditions attempted to be imposed by the Purchaser are rejected by Seller and will not be included in the Contract.

03. Except as provided herein, no representative, agent or employee of the Company has authority to modify, amend or exclude these Conditions or any part thereof, or to enter into an agreement to sell on any other terms, or to make any representation or warranty in relation to any Goods supplied or Services provided without the express authority in writing of an Authorized Representative.

04. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that an Order submitted by the Purchaser to the Company or an acceptance of a Quotation by the Purchaser will be deemed to be an offer by the Purchaser to buy the Goods or Services subject to these Conditions.

05. The Company may immediately terminate, in whole or in part, any Order, Quotation or any Contract, at any time and for any reason, without any liability to Purchaser, by giving the Purchaser written notice of termination. Any such termination by the Company will not relieve the Purchaser of its payment of its obligation to pay for any Goods delivered and/or Services provided to the Purchaser prior to the effective date of termination.

06. These Conditions will not be subject to waiver unless by written instrument duly executed by all Parties. Waiver of a right or remedy under these Conditions will not be deemed a waiver of any other right or remedy. Forbearance, temporary waiver, or other failure to enforce any right or remedy under these Conditions will not constitute a permanent waiver.

07. If the Company is prevented, hindered or delayed, whether directly or indirectly, from making delivery of the Goods or providing Services or any part thereof in accordance with the terms of any Contract or from otherwise performing such agreement or any part thereof by reason of an act or acts of God, war, embargo, riot, strike, lock-out, trade dispute, fire, breakdown, inclement weather, interruption of transport, government action, delay in delivery or non-delivery to the Company of any Goods or materials or by any cause whatsoever (whether or not of like nature to those specified above) outside its control, the Company will be under no liability thereto whatsoever, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, to the Purchaser and will be entitled at its option, by written notice to the Company, to either cancel the contract or to extend the time for performance of the Contract by a period at least equivalent to that during which performance has been prevented, hindered or delayed.

08. Except as expressly set forth herein, these Conditions are intended solely for the benefit of the Parties, both of which expressly disclaim any intent to create any rights in any third party as a third-party beneficiary to these Conditions or any Contract entered into pursuant to these Conditions. No person other than a party to a Contract which incorporates these Conditions may enforce any of these terms.
