the defect is caused by you through accident, negligence or misuse. SEI Ltd
shall provide you with such information as is required to claim under the
manufacturer's warranties. In the event of a claim, you should in the first

6% above Barclays Plc's base rate from time to time in force, and shall
accrue at such a rate after, as well as before, any court judgment. This clause
does not affect our statutory rights.

warrants and represents that such design does not infringe any design rights or
other intellectual property rights of any third party and hereby agrees to
indemnify SEI Ltd against any loss or damage which SEI Ltd may suffer as a
result of any claim brought against it by a third party alleging infringement of
its design or other intellectual property rights.

terms and conditions will be to make good any shortage or non-delivery, or to
replace or repair any goods which are received by you in a damaged or defective
state or, if appropriate and in accordance with these terms and conditions, to
refund to you any sums actually paid by you for the goods in question. SEI Ltd
total liability to you (save for death or personal injury) for any one claim or

you notify to us. Examples of indirect or consequential loss include but are not
limited to loss of profits, loss of time, loss of contracts, or damage to
property of the Buyer.
7.6 Where the goods are to be delivered in instalments, each delivery shall
constitute a separate contract and failure by SEI Ltd to deliver one or more
instalment in accordance with these terms and conditions shall not entitle the
Buyer to treat the contract as a whole or in part as repudiated. SEI Ltd shall
use its reasonable endeavours to meet any date agreed for delivery, but in any
event time of delivery shall not be of the essence. SEI Ltd reserves the right
to sub-contract all or part of work arising form an order as it deems necessary.
7.7 Unless otherwise stated, the price of the goods includes one delivery in the
UK (mainland). If an agreed delivery is refused or not completed, through the
fault of the Buyer, and has to be re-delivered, a surcharge will be made
amounting to 10% of the price for the goods, subject to a minimum of £50.

the right to cancel or suspend an order or contract and the Buyer shall be
liable for the costs of work completed and expenses incurred by or on behalf of
SEI Ltd . Furthermore, the Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold SEI Ltd
harmless, on demand, from and against all claims, liability, damages, losses,
costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of any breach
of these terms and conditions by the Buyer.

delivery, or if the Buyer or his nominee wrongfully fails to take delivery of

pass to the Buyer until SEI Ltd has received in cash or cleared funds payment in

payment is then due.
8.3 Until such time as title in the goods passes to the Buyer, the Buyer shall
hold the goods as SEI Ltd fiduciary agent and bailee and shall keep the goods
separate from those of the Buyer and third parties, and properly stored,
protected and insured and identified as SEI Ltd property. Until such time
as title in the goods passes to the Buyer, SEI Ltd shall be entitled at any time
to require the Buyer to deliver up the goods to SEI Ltd and, if the Buyer fails
to do so forthwith, to enter upon any premises of the Buyer or third party where
the goods are stored and repossess the goods.

security for any indebtedness any of the goods which remain the property of SEI
