4.1.4 provide the Supplier with such information and materials as the Supplier may reasonably require in order to supply the Services, and ensure that such information is complete and accurate in all material respects;

4.1.5 prepare the Customer’s premises for the supply of the Services;

4.1.6 obtain and maintain all necessary licences, permissions and consents which may be required for the Services before the date on which the Services are to start;

4.1.7 keep all materials, equipment, documents and other property of the Supplier (Supplier Materials) at the Customer’s premises in safe custody at its own risk, maintain the Supplier Materials in good condition until returned to the Supplier, and not dispose of or use the Supplier Materials other than in accordance with the Supplier’s written instructions or authorisation; and

4.1.8 comply with any additional obligations as set out in the Specification.

4.2 If the Supplier’s performance of any of its obligations under the Contract is prevented or delayed by any act or omission by the Customer or failure by the Customer to perform any relevant obligation (Customer Default):

5.1 The Charges for the Services shall be calculated on a time and materials basis:

5.1.1 the Charges shall be calculated in accordance with the Supplier’s daily fee rates, as set out in the Order;

5.1.2 the Supplier’s daily fee rates for each individual are calculated on the basis of an eight-hour day from 8.00 am to 5.00 pm worked on Business Days;

5.1.3 the Supplier shall be entitled to charge an overtime rate of [5]% of the daily fee rate on a pro-rata basis for each part day or for any time worked by individuals whom it engages on the Services outside the hours referred to in clause 5.1.2; and

5.1.4 the Supplier shall be entitled to charge the Customer for any expenses reasonably incurred by the individuals whom the Supplier engages in connection with the Services including travelling expenses, hotel costs, subsistence and any associated expenses, and for the cost of services provided by third parties and required by the Supplier for the performance of the Services, and for the cost of any materials.

5.2 A deposit of 30% of the Charges for the Services will be payable on completion of the booking. If you cancel the booking 5 days before the Services are being performed, the deposit will not be refunded.

5.3 The Supplier shall invoice the Customer on completion of the Services.

5.4 The Customer shall pay each invoice submitted by the Supplier:

5.4.1 within 30 days of the date of the invoice or in accordance with any credit terms agreed by the Supplier and confirmed in writing to the Customer; and

5.4.2 in full and in cleared funds to a bank account nominated in writing by the Supplier, and
time for payment shall be of the essence of the Contract.

5.5 All amounts payable by the Customer under the Contract are exclusive of amounts in respect of value added tax chargeable from time to time (VAT). Where any taxable supply for VAT purposes is made under the Contract by the Supplier to the Customer, the Customer shall, on receipt of a valid VAT invoice from the Supplier, pay to the Supplier such additional amounts in respect of VAT as are chargeable on the supply of the Services at the same time as payment is due for the supply of the Services.

5.6 If the Customer fails to make a payment due to the Supplier under the Contract by the due date, then, without limiting the Supplier’s remedies under clause 9, the Customer shall pay interest on the overdue sum from the due date until payment of the overdue sum, whether before or after judgment. Interest under this clause 5.6 will accrue each day at 8% a year above the Bank of England’s base rate from time to time, but at 4% a year for any period when that base rate is below 0%.

5.7 All amounts due under the Contract shall be paid in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).

6. REPAIRS

The rights, for the Supplier and any third party authorised by the Supplier to enter the Property at any time to repair, maintain or replace any services, structures or facilities in any part of the Property.

7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

7.1 All Intellectual Property Rights in or arising out of or in connection with the Services (other than Intellectual Property Rights in any materials provided by the Customer) shall be owned by the Supplier.

7.2 The Supplier grants to the Customer, or shall procure the direct grant to the Customer of, a fully paid-up, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence during the term of the Contract to copy the Deliverables (excluding materials provided by the Customer) solely for the purpose of receiving and using the Services and the Deliverables in its business.

7.3 The Customer shall not sub-license, assign or otherwise transfer the rights granted in clause 7.2.

8. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: THE CUSTOMER’S ATTENTION IS PARTICULARLY DRAWN TO THIS CLAUSE.

8.1 The Supplier has obtained insurance cover in respect of its own legal liability for individual claims not exceeding £[1,000,000] per claim. The limits and exclusions in this clause reflect the insurance cover the Supplier has been able to arrange and the Customer is responsible for making its own arrangements for the insurance of any excess loss.

8.2 References to liability in this clause 8 include every kind of liability arising under or in connection with the Contract including liability in contract, tort (including negligence), misrepresentation, restitution or otherwise.

8.3 Neither party may benefit from the limitations and exclusions set out in this clause in respect of any liability arising from its deliberate default.

8.4 Nothing in this clause 8 shall limit the Customer’s payment obligations under the Contract.

8.5 Nothing in the Contract limits any liability which cannot legally be limited, including, but not limited to, liability for:

8.5.1 death or personal injury caused by negligence;

8.5.2 fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; and

8.5.3 breach of the terms implied by section 2 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982 (title and quiet possession).

8.6 Subject to clause 8.3 (No limitation in respect of deliberate default), and clause 8.5 (Liabilities which cannot legally be limited), the Supplier’s total liability to the Customer for all loss or damage shall not exceed an amount equal to 100% of the charges levied by the Supplier in the 12 months preceding a claim.

8.7 The caps on the Supplier’s liabilities shall be reduced by:

8.7.1 payment of an uncapped liability; and

8.7.2 amounts awarded by a court or arbitrator, using their procedural or statutory powers in respect of costs of proceedings or interest for late payment.

8.8 Subject clause 8.3 (No limitation in respect of deliberate default), clause 8.4 (No limitation of customer’s payment obligations) and clause 8.5 (Liabilities which cannot legally be limited), this clause 8.8 sets out the types of loss that are wholly excluded:

8.8.1 loss of profits.

8.8.2 loss of sales or business.

8.8.3 loss of agreements or contracts.

8.8.4 loss of anticipated savings.

8.8.5 loss of use or corruption of software, data or information.

8.8.6 loss of or damage to goodwill; and

8.8.7 indirect or consequential loss.

8.9 The Supplier has given commitments as to compliance of the Services with relevant specifications in clause 3. In view of these commitments, the terms implied by sections 3, 4 and 5 of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982 are, to the fullest extent permitted by law, excluded from the Contract.

8.10 Unless the Customer notifies the Supplier that it intends to make a claim in respect of an event within the notice period, the Supplier shall have no liability for that event. The notice period for an event shall start on the day on which the Customer became, or ought reasonably to have become, aware of the event having occurred and shall expire three months from that date. The notice must be in writing and must identify the event and the grounds for the claim in reasonable detail.

8.11 This clause 8 shall survive termination of the Contract.

9. TERMINATION

9.1 Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, either party may terminate the Contract by giving the other party [6] months’ written notice.

9.2 Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, either party may terminate the Contract with immediate effect by giving written notice to the other party if:

9.2.1 the other party commits a material breach of any term of the Contract and (if such a breach is remediable) fails to remedy that breach within [14] days of that party being notified in writing to do so;

9.2.2 the other party takes any step or action in connection with its entering administration, provisional liquidation or any composition or arrangement with its creditors (other than in relation to a solvent restructuring), applying to court for or obtaining a moratorium under Part A1 of the Insolvency Act 1986, being wound up (whether voluntarily or by order of the court, unless for the purpose of a solvent restructuring), having a receiver appointed to any of its assets or ceasing to carry on business or, if the step or action is taken in another jurisdiction, in connection with any analogous procedure in the relevant jurisdiction;

9.2.3 the other party suspends, or threatens to suspend, or ceases or threatens to cease to carry on all or a substantial part of its business; or

9.2.4 the other party’s financial position deteriorates to such an extent that in the terminating party’s opinion the other party’s capability to adequately fulfil its obligations under the Contract has been placed in jeopardy.

9.3 Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, the Supplier may terminate the Contract with immediate effect by giving written notice to the Customer if:

9.3.1 the Customer fails to pay any amount due under the Contract on the due date for payment; or

9.4 Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, the Supplier may suspend the supply of Services under the Contract or any other contract between the Customer and the Supplier if:

9.4.3 the Supplier reasonably believes that the Customer is about to become subject to any of the events listed in clause 9.2.2.

10. CONSEQUENCES OF TERMINATION

10.1.2 the Customer shall return all of the Supplier Materials and any Deliverables which have not been fully paid for. If the Customer fails to do so, then the Supplier may enter the Customer’s premises and take possession of them. Until they have been returned, the Customer shall be solely responsible for their safe keeping and will not use them for any purpose not connected with the Contract.

10.2 Termination of the Contract shall not affect any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities of the parties that have accrued up to the date of termination, including the right to claim damages in respect of any breach of the Contract which existed at or before the date of termination.

10.3 Any provision of the Contract that expressly or by implication is intended to come into or continue in force on or after termination of the Contract shall remain in full force and effect.

11. GENERAL

11.1 Force majeure. Neither party shall be in breach of the Contract nor liable for delay in performing, or failure to perform, any of its obligations under the Contract if such delay or failure result from events, circumstances or causes beyond its reasonable control.

11.2 Assignment and other dealings.

11.2.1 The Supplier may at any time assign, mortgage, charge, subcontract, delegate, declare a trust over or deal in any other manner with any or all of its rights and obligations under the Contract.

11.2.2 The Customer shall not assign, transfer, mortgage, charge, subcontract, delegate, declare a trust over or deal in any other manner with any of its rights and obligations under the Contract.

11.3 Confidentiality.

11.3.1 Each party undertakes that it shall not at any time disclose to any person any confidential information concerning the business, affairs, customers, clients or suppliers of the other party, except as permitted by clause 11.3.2.

11.3.2 Each party may disclose the other party’s confidential information:

(a) to its employees, officers, representatives, contractors, subcontractors or advisers who need to know such information for the purposes of carrying out the party’s obligations under the Contract. Each party shall ensure that its employees, officers, representatives, contractors, subcontractors or advisers to whom it discloses the other party’s confidential information comply with this clause 11.3; and

(b) as may be required by law, a court of competent jurisdiction or any governmental or regulatory authority.

11.3.3 Neither party shall use the other party’s confidential information for any purpose other than to perform its obligations under the Contract.

11.4 Entire agreement.

11.4.1 The Contract constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes and extinguishes all previous agreements, promises, assurances, warranties, representations and understandings between them, whether written or oral, relating to its subject matter.

11.4.2 Each party acknowledges that in entering into the Contract it does not rely on, and shall have no remedies in respect of any statement, representation, assurance or warranty (whether made innocently or negligently) that is not set out in the Contract. Each party agrees that it shall have no claim for innocent or negligent misrepresentation or negligent misstatement based on any statement in the Contract.

11.4.3 Nothing in this clause shall limit or exclude any liability for fraud.

11.5 Variation. Except as set out in these Conditions, no variation of the Contract shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the parties (or their authorised representatives).

11.6 Waiver. A waiver of any right or remedy under the Contract or by law is only effective if given in writing and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent right or remedy. A failure or delay by a party to exercise any right or remedy provided under the Contract or by law shall not constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall it prevent or restrict any further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy provided under the Contract or by law shall prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.

11.7 Severance. If any provision or part-provision of the Contract is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall be deemed deleted, but that shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the rest of this Agreement. If any provision or part-provision of this Contract deleted under this clause 11.7 the parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree a replacement provision that, to the greatest extent possible, achieves the intended commercial result of the original provision.

11.8 Notices.

11.8.1 Any notice or other communication given to a party under or in connection with the Contract shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or by pre-paid first-class post or other next working day delivery service at its registered office (if a company) or its principal place of business (in any other case).

11.8.2 Any notice or communication shall be deemed to have been received:

(a) if delivered by hand, at the time the notice is left at the proper address; or

(b) if sent by pre-paid first-class post or other next working day delivery service, at 9.00 am on the second Business Day after posting.

11.8.3 This clause 11.8 does not apply to the service of any proceedings or other documents in any legal action or, where applicable, any other method of dispute resolution.

11.9 Third party rights.

11.9.1 Unless it expressly states otherwise, the Contract does not give rise to any rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of the Contract.

11.9.2 The rights of the parties to rescind or vary the Contract are not subject to the consent of any other person.

11.10 Governing law. The Contract, and any dispute or claim (including non-contractual disputes or claims) arising out of or in connection with it or its subject matter or formation shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with the law of England and Wales.

11.11 Jurisdiction. Each party irrevocably agrees that the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim (including non-contractual disputes or claims) arising out of or in connection with the Contract or its subject matter or formation.
