1 SALE AND PURCHASE

1.1 This Addendum applies where an Order includes Hardware and sets out the additional terms on which Customer agrees to purchase the Hardware and Eptura agrees to sell the Hardware.

1.2 Terms defined in this Addendum shall have the same meaning as those in the Terms of Service.

1.3 Any samples, drawings, descriptive matter, or advertising produced by Eptura and any descriptions or illustrations contained in Eptura’s catalogues or brochures are produced for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Hardware described in them and are not legally binding. Delivery of the Hardware shall be made by Eptura at the location on the delivery date. Customer shall procure that a duly authorised representative of Customer shall be present at the location on delivery of the Hardware.

1.4 Customer shall at its sole expense provide all requisite assistance to enable delivery to be carried out safely and expeditiously.

1.5 Eptura shall ensure that each delivery of the Hardware is accompanied by a delivery note setting out the relevant Customer and Eptura reference numbers and the type and quantity of the Hardware.

1.6 Any dates quoted for delivery are approximate only and the time of delivery is not of the essence. Eptura shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of the Hardware that is caused by an event outside of Eptura’s reasonable control or Customer’s failure to provide adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of the Hardware.

1.7 If Customer fails to take delivery of the Hardware on the delivery date then, except where such failure or delay is caused by Eptura’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Addendum: (i) delivery of the Hardware shall be deemed to have been completed on the delivery date; and (ii) Eptura may store the Hardware until delivery takes place and charge Customer for all related costs and expenses (including insurance).

1.8 If Customer does not take delivery of the Hardware within 10 working days of the delivery date then Eptura may resell or otherwise dispose of part or all of the Hardware.

1.9 Eptura may deliver the Hardware by instalments, which shall be invoiced and paid for separately. Any delay in delivery or defect in an instalment shall not entitle Customer to cancel any other instalment.

1.10 Eptura warrants that on delivery the Hardware shall comply with its then applicable specification and be of satisfactory quality and fit for any purpose held out by Eptura. Eptura shall use all commercially reasonable endeavours to remedy any material defect in the Hardware which manifests itself within 12 months from delivery, in accordance with paragraph 1.13, provided that:

1.10.1 Customer notifies Eptura of any defect in writing within 10 working days of the defect occurring or of Customer becoming aware of the defect;

1.10.2 Eptura is permitted to make a full examination of the alleged defect;

1.10.3 the defect did not materialise as a result of misuse, neglect, alteration, mishandling, accident or unauthorised manipulation by any person other than Eptura’s authorised personnel;

1.10.4 the defect did not arise out of any information, design or any other assistance supplied or furnished by Customer or on its behalf;

1.10.5 the defect is directly attributable to defective material, workmanship or design;

1.10.6 insofar as the Hardware comprises or contains equipment or components which were not manufactured or produced by Eptura, Customer shall be entitled only to such warranty or other benefit as Eptura has received from the manufacturer;

1.10.7 Eptura shall not be liable for Hardware’s failure to comply with the warranty set out in this paragraph 1.12 if Customer makes any further use of such Hardware after giving notice in accordance with paragraph 1.12.1; and

1.10.8 these conditions shall apply to any repaired or replacement Hardware supplied by Eptura.

1.11 Eptura shall, at its option, repair or replace the defective Hardware, or refund the price of the defective Hardware in full. Except as provided in this paragraph 1.11, Eptura shall have no liability to Customer in respect of the Hardware’s failure to comply with the warranty set out in paragraph 1.10.

2 RISK AND TITLE

Risk and title in the Hardware shall pass to Customer once shipped. For the avoidance of doubt, this does not extinguish the obligation on Customer to make payment for Hardware.

2.2 Subject to paragraph 2.3, if Customer resells the Hardware before Eptura receives payment for the Hardware:

2.2.1 it does so as principal and not as Eptura’s agent; and

2.2.2 title to the Hardware shall pass from Eptura to Customer immediately before the time at which resale by the Customer occurs

and Eptura shall have the right to bring an action against Customer for any unpaid amount owing to Eptura by Customer.

2.3 If Customer becomes subject to an event giving Eptura a right to terminate the Order and/or the Terms of Service with immediate effect prior to title to the Hardware passing to Customer, then, without limiting any other right or remedy Eptura may have:

2.3.1 Customer’s right to resell the Hardware or use it in the ordinary course of its business ceases immediately; and

2.3.2 Eptura may at any time (i) require Customer to deliver up all Hardware in its possession which has not been resold, or irrevocably incorporated into another product; and (ii) if Customer fails to do so promptly, enter any premises of Customer or of any third party where the Hardware is stored to recover them.

3 PRICE

3.1 The price of the Hardware shall be the price set out in the Order and is exclusive of the costs and charges of packaging, insurance and transport of the Hardware, which shall be invoiced to Customer in addition to the price.

4.2.1 advising the Customer of defects and providing fixes and providing remote assistance to Customer in the analysis and correction of Hardware incidents;

4.2.3 the support on the software (firmware) used to operate and control the Hardware will be provided using remote diagnostic support; and

4.2.4 during the triage of a Hardware incident it may be necessary for a suitably proficient local Customer resource to remove screens and reset, replace or power-cycle the affected unit(s) or provide other local assistance. A workaround of a high-priority Hardware incident may involve relocating less impacted Hardware devices to alternative locations to provide a temporary solution.

4.3.1 Eptura will dispatch a replacement to the location of the faulty Hardware as soon as reasonably practicable following diagnosis of the fault;

4.3.3 Customer will return the faulty Hardware item to the Eptura within five working days of receipt of the replacement Hardware, re-using the packaging provided. Tracking details of returned item must also be provided. Failure to return the Hardware by Customer shall render Customer liable to pay the full replacement cost of the Hardware; and

4.3.4 failure to return the faulty Hardware or Hardware in the required time will result in Eptura invoicing Customer at the then current Hardware list price for the replacement Hardware, Customer will be liable for payment of the invoice within 30 days of invoice date.

4.4 Eptura shall not provide replacements for the Hardware, support or have any liability for anything caused by:

4.4.1 the improper use, operation or neglect of the Hardware;
