4.3 Except where the Delivery Point is the Supplier’s Premises, the price of the Goods is exclusive of the costs of carriage and insurance to the Delivery Point, which shall be payable by the Buyer and the Buyer shall be responsible for off-loading the Goods at the Delivery Point.
4.4 Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing by the Supplier, the Delivery Point shall be within the United Kingdom. If it is agreed that the Delivery Point is to be outside the United Kingdom, then the price shall be exclusive of all local taxes and/or import duties and tariffs which shall be payable by the Buyer and, if incurred by the Supplier, the Buyer shall reimburse the Supplier in respect thereof within 14 days of receipt of an invoice in respect of the same.
4.5 Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing the Supplier may invoice the Buyer for the Goods and any costs in respect of carriage or insurance payable by the Buyer on or at any time following acceptances of the Buyer’s Order for the Goods. The Buyer shall pay the invoice in full within 2 (two) days of the date of the invoice date (but no later than the date of the dispatch), or a partial payment in accordance with the credit limit assigned or a full advance payment. Time of payment shall be of the essence.

5. DELIVERY
 
5.1 The Supplier shall deliver the Goods to the location set out in the Order or such other location as is agreed in writing between the Supplier and the Buyer. In the absence of any location specified in the Order or otherwise agreed between the parties, delivery shall take place at the Supplier’s Premises.
5.2 Delivery of the Goods shall be completed:
 
5.2.1 where the Supplier is arranging for the carriage of the Goods, when the Goods arrive at the Delivery Point (subject to the Buyer’s right to refuse delivery in accordance with condition 5.5).
5.3 Any dates quoted or accepted by the Supplier for delivery of the Goods are approximate only, and the time of delivery is not of the essence. The Supplier shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of the Goods, especially if that is caused by a Force Majeure Event or the Buyer’s failure to provide the Supplier with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions which are relevant to the supply of the Goods.
5.4 If the Goods have not been delivered by the date or, if relevant, by the end the time period given by the Supplier as the approximate date/period for delivery then, unless the delay is caused by a Force Majeure Event or the Buyer’s failure to provide the Supplier with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions which are relevant to the supply of the Goods or the Goods have not been collected by the Buyer in accordance with condition 5.6, then the Buyer shall be entitled to give written notice to the Supplier requiring the Supplier to deliver the Goods or, if relevant, make them available for collection from the Supplier’s Premises, within not less than 5 days following receipt of such notice, whereupon, if the Supplier fails to comply, the Buyer may terminate the Contract forthwith on written notice to the Supplier.
5.5 Where the Delivery Point is other than at the Supplier’s Premises, the Supplier shall use its reasonable endeavours to keep the Buyer reasonably informed of the anticipated time and date of delivery and the Buyer shall accept delivery of the Goods at the Delivery Point provided that it has received not less than 24 hours notice of such delivery. If it has received less than 24 hours notice then, unless the delivery is being made on the delivery date or within the delivery period specified in the Order or otherwise agreed between the parties, then the Buyer may refuse to accept delivery if it not reasonable to expect the Buyer to accept delivery on that date taking into account the Buyer’s ability to grant access to the Delivery Point on that date and any material inconvenience to the Buyer in complying.
5.6 If the Buyer either fails to take delivery of the Goods within the time limit specified in condition 5.6 or, where the Delivery Point in other than the Supplier’s Premises, if the Buyer fails to accept delivery of any of the Goods at the Delivery Point (except in circumstances where it is reasonable for the Buyer to refuse to accept delivery as set out in condition 5.5), then the Supplier may store the Goods until delivery is effected and the Buyer shall be liable for all reasonable costs, expenses and loss incurred by the Buyer in connection with such failure including, without limitation, additional transport costs, storage costs and insurance costs.
5.7 The Supplier may deliver the Goods by instalments. Each instalment shall be invoiced and paid for in accordance with the provisions of the Contract and shall be a separate Contract. No cancellation or termination of any one Contract relating to an instalment shall entitle the Buyer to repudiate or cancel any other Contract or instalment.
