Title to Goods

Notwithstanding the following retention of title provision, all goods shall be at the risk of the Buyer from the moment of delivery to the Buyer or its agent.

The ownership of the goods shall remain with the Supplier and not pass to the Buyer until such time as payment has been received in full by the Supplier in respect of all goods supplied to the Buyer. Until ownership of the goods has passed to the Buyer, the Buyer shall hold the goods on a fiduciary basis as the Supplier’s bailee.

Without prejudice to the Buyer’s continuing fiduciary obligations to the Supplier as agent and bailee of the goods, until otherwise notified by the Seller in writing or until the happening of anything that terminates the Buyer’s right to possession of the goods, the Buyer may resell the goods before ownership has passed to it solely on the following conditions:

· Any sale shall be effected in the ordinary course of the Buyer’s business at full market value: and

· Any such sale shall be a sale of the Supplier’s property on the Buyer’s behalf and the Buyer shall deal as principal when making such a sale.

The Buyer’s right to possession of the goods shall terminate immediately if:

·

The Buyer has a bankruptcy, winding up or administration order made against it or makes an arrangement or composition with it’s creditors, passes a resolution or enter into liquidation or has a receiver and/or manager, provisional liquidator, administrator or administrative (or equivalent officer) appointed over it’s undertaking or any part thereof; or

· The Buyer suffers or allows any execution, whether legal or equitable, to be levied on it’s property or obtained against it, or fails to observe or perform any of it’s obligations under these conditions or other contract between the Supplier and the Buyer, or is unable to pay its debts within the meaning of section 123 of the Insolvency Act 1986 or the Buyer ceases to trade;

The Supplier shall be entitled to recover payment for the goods notwithstanding that ownership of any of the goods has not passed from the Supplier.

The Buyer grants the Supplier, its agents and employees an irrevocable licence at any time to enter any premises where the goods are or may be stored in order to inspect them, or, where the Buyer’s right to possession has terminated, to recover them.

On termination of the Contract, however caused, the Supplier’s (but not the Buyer’s) rights contained in this condition shall remain in effect.

Orders

Delivery

The Supplier shall not be responsible or liable in any way for any delay in delivery of goods.

Pallets/Cages/Crates

The Buyer obtains no right or title to any of the pallets accompanying the goods that the Supplier sells to it. The Buyer will not dispose of them, and will return them to the Supplier in substantially the same conditions as when delivered either as a one for one exchange at the time of delivery or in strict accordance with any mutually agreed pallet pool system in operation at the time.

Cages will be charged out and will be credited when returned.

All Crates remain the property of O’Reilly’s Wholesale Ltd at all times.

The Supplier shall not in any circumstance be liable to the Buyer for any claim, whether arising in contract, tort (including negligence), misrepresentation or otherwise for:

· Any loss of profit, revenue, anticipated savings, business or contract: and

· Any sub sequential, economic or other indirect loss.

The Buyer accepts that the limitations and exclusions set out in these terms are reasonable having regards to all the circumstances.
