The additional amount:
      1. is equal to the price payable by the Customer for the relevant supply multiplied by the prevailing GST rate; and
      2. is payable at the same time and in the same manner as the price for the supply to which the additional amount relates.
    5. The Customer must pay to JELD-WEN all charges, duties, imposts, taxes (including any goods and services taxes and sales taxes) and similar amounts payable in relation to the sale or supply of any products or services by JELD-WEN to the Customer.

To secure repayment of all amounts the Customer owes to JELD-WEN on any account from time to time, the Customer charges, as beneficial owner and trustee of any trust, in favour of JELD-WEN all of the Customer’s right, title and interest in land held now or in the future wherever located. Pursuant to this charge, the Customer acknowledges JELD-WEN’s caveatable interest and consents to JELD-WEN lodging a caveat over the Customer’s land at any time. Immediately on JELD-WEN’s request the Customer agrees to execute a mortgage in registrable form in JELD-WEN’s favour over any of the Customer’s land and by reason of this agreement to execute a mortgage in JELD-WEN’s favour the Customer acknowledges that JELD-WEN is an equitable mortgagee in respect of the Customer’s land.

    2. Upon the signing of a delivery docket unless the contrary is noted in that docket, the Goods shall be deemed to have been delivered in good order and condition and if no person is present to sign the delivery docket then the Goods will be deemed to have been delivered in good order and condition. To the extent permitted by law, the Customer may only return Goods if a shortage, damage or other fault at the time of delivery is reported by the Customer to JELD-WEN within 24 hours of delivery and confirmed in writing within 7 days of such report.
    3. The Customer agrees to accept delivery of the Goods or to make alternative delivery arrangements within 7 days of JELD-WEN notifying the Customer that the Goods are available for delivery.

    4. Where the parties have agreed that the Customer will advise JELD-WEN of a “load date” (being a date for delivery), the Customer must:
      1. give sufficient notice of the load date (being not less than the standard published lead time for the Goods to be manufactured and delivered; and
      2. ensure that the load date is not more than 90 days after the date of the Order.
    5. To the extent permitted by law, the Customer shall be responsible to JELD-WEN for any extra costs (which term shall include actual costs and imputed costs for storage, handling or demurrage) incurred by JELD-WEN as a result of failure of the Customer to take delivery of the Goods at the time and place specified. JELD-WEN will be entitled to a lien over the Goods until such costs have been paid in full.
    6. If the Customer is required to give JELD-WEN notice of a load date under clause 6.4, and fails to do so within within 90 days after placing the Order, JELD-WEN reserves the right to:
      1. review and vary the price payable by the Customer under the Quotation to the extent permitted by law, if JELD-WEN considers it reasonable to increase those prices to reflect JELD-WEN’s then current prices for such Goods (or equivalent Goods), in which case the Customer must pay the difference on demand; and/or
      2. supply to the Customer equivalent Goods to those described in the Quotation but which may contain slight variations in design. Such variations will not materially affect the dimensions, operation or appearance of the Goods. JELD-WEN must inform the Customer of such variations at the time of delivery of the Goods.
    7. If the Customer fails to accept any part of the Goods which JELD-WEN has dispatched in conformity with the Contract and such part of the Goods is returned to JELD-WEN and re-dispatched subsequently, then JELD-WEN may, to the extent permitted by law, require the Customer to pay on demand a charge equal to double the current delivery charge.
    8. It is the Customer’s responsibility on delivery to ensure that all products conform to its specification and requirements and no claims will be accepted for defects ascertainable on delivery in respect of products not confirming to the Customer’s written specifications and requirements, unless made in writing within 14 days after delivery.
    9. Any claim by the Customer that any products or services invoiced by JELD-WEN have not been delivered to or received by the Customer must be communicated in writing by the Customer to JELD-WEN within 14 days that the products or services were invoiced, failing which the Customer will be deemed to have received delivery of the products or services.
  7. TITLE
    1. Products are at the Customer’s risk from delivery and property in the Goods supplied by JELD-WEN to the Customer will not pass to the Customer until the money owing for those Goods and any other money owing by the Customer to JELD-WEN has been paid. The Customer in the meantime takes custody of the Goods as the fiduciary agent and bailee of JELD-WEN.
    2. Where the Customer does not make payment in respect of specific Goods, payment must be treated as having been made first in respect of Goods which have passed out of the possession of the Customer, and then in respect of whatever Goods still in the possession of the Customer JELD-WEN elects.
    3. Until the Goods have been paid for in full:
      1. the Customer must store the Goods in such a manner as to show clearly that they are the property of JELD-WEN;
      2. the Customer may sell the Goods, in the ordinary course of its business, but only as fiduciary agent of JELD-WEN. Any right to bind JELD-WEN to any liability to a third party by contract or otherwise is expressly negatived. The Customer receives all proceeds, whether tangible or intangible, direct or indirect, of any dealing with the Goods (including any proceeds from insurance claims) in trust for JELD-WEN and must keep the proceeds in a separate bank account until the liability to JELD-WEN is discharged;
      3. Must keep all products insured against theft, damage, and destruction (and if the Customer fails to insure the products, JELD-WEN may do so and invoice the Customer for the cost of insurance) and
      4. the Customer agrees not to sell, assign, charge or otherwise encumber or grant any interest over any obligations which any third party may owe to the Customer as a result of the use, manufacture or resale of the Goods.
    4. The Customer irrevocably authorises JELD-WEN at any time, to enter any premises:
      1. upon which the Goods are stored to enable JELD-WEN to:
        1. inspect the Goods; and/or
        2. if the Customer has breached these terms and conditions, reclaim possession of the Goods.
      2. upon which the Customer’s records pertaining to the Goods are held to inspect and copy such records.
    5. The provisions of this clause apply notwithstanding any arrangement between the parties under which JELD-WEN or a related body corporate grants the Customer credit.
    6. The right to on-sell, deal or otherwise dispose of the goods in the normal course of trade may be revoked at any time by JELD-WEN and shall automatically cease if the Customer does not pay JELD-WEN, the Customer is unable to pay its debts as they fall due, the Customer ceases or suspends the Conduct of its business or threatens to, execution is levied on any of the Customer’s assets, a Receiver is appointed over any of the assets on the undertaking of the Customer or if a winding up order is made against the Customer or if the Customer goes into voluntary liquidation (otherwise than for the purpose of reconstruction or amalgamation) or administration or calls a meeting of, or makes any arrangement or composition with, creditors or commits any act of bankruptcy, or where the Customer is in default of any of its obligations to JELD-WEN, and all amounts immediately become due and payable.

Such suspension and/or termination shall be without prejudice to and shall not affect any rights of JELD-WEN against the Customer prior thereto.
    3.
