EOS has the right to charge late payment interest from the due date until payment is received. In addition to legal remedies, EOS may suspend future deliveries or services until all late payments are received. All payments will be made without any deductions, set-off, counter-claims, or withholding except as required by law.

Prices: EOS has the right to increase the price of Deliverables due to (i) any factor beyond EOS’s control (e.g. foreign exchange fluctuations, increases in taxes or duties, increases in labour, materials, or other costs, or increases due to the third parties; (ii) any request by Customer to change the delivery date(s), quantities or types of Deliverables ordered, or Customer’s specification for Deliverables (if any); or (iii) any delay caused by Customer’s instructions in respect of Deliverables or Customer’s failure to perform Customer’s obligations under this Agreement. Prices and currency will be as per the quote.

All sums payable under this Agreement are exclusive of VAT and any other sales or similar taxes, custom duties, withholding taxes or similar charges, for which Customer will be responsible.
4. Shipping: If Customer has any special shipping or handling requirements, the Customer will notify EOS promptly before EOS arranges any shipping or handling. Customer will be responsible for any increase in the price to ship and pack the purchase order.
5. Delivery: EOS’s quoted delivery schedule is its best estimate. EOS will have no liability for delay or any damages or losses sustained by Customer due to such schedule not being met. Partial deliveries will be permitted. Time will not be of the essence regarding deliveries. Title of any goods will not pass to Customer until EOS has received payment for them; payment will be regarded as being received when it is made in full and cleared in EOS’s bank account. Until the title in the goods passes to the Customer, Customer will hold the goods as the EOS’s fiduciary agent and bailee and will keep the goods properly stored, protected, insured, and identified as EOS’s property. After delivery of any goods, Customer must give EOS notice, (i) in the case of a defect (including any fault, misdescription or damage) that is apparent on normal visual inspection, within five (5) days of delivery; (ii) in the case of a latent defect, within a reasonable time of the latent defect having become apparent. software product licences will be deemed effective under the terms provided in the relevant third-party terms.
6. Warranty: EOS warrants that any goods will be free, and will remain free until title to the goods is to pass to Customer, from any third party rights or encumbrances not disclosed to Customer before purchase order is received, and that Customer may enjoy quiet possession of such goods except insofar as Customer may be disturbed by any person entitled to the benefit of any third party rights or encumbrances so disclosed or known. Customer acknowledges that it has assessed the Deliverables’ suitability for its requirements. EOS does not warrant that the Deliverables will be suitable for such requirements, or that any use of the Deliverables will be uninterrupted or error-free. EOS may, during the supply of the Deliverables, make statements about or recommendations of third-party goods or services, or supply third-party manufactured goods to Customer. EOS gives no warranty concerning such goods or services, and Customer will rely solely on the warranties and remedies provided by any such third party with whom Customer may contract or given by the relevant third-party manufacturer from whom EOS may procure the goods or services in question. Subject to Clause 8, the express terms in this Agreement will apply in place of all warranties, conditions, terms, representations, statements, undertakings and obligations whether expressed or implied by statute, common law, custom, usage or otherwise, all of which are excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law.
7. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution: The construction, validity and performance of this Agreement will be governed by the laws of Northern Ireland and the parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Northern Ireland.
8. Limitation of Liability: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, and regardless of the number of claims or the form or cause of action, whether in contract, equity, statute, tort, negligence (active or passive) or otherwise, EOS will not be liable for any special, indirect, incidental, punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages of any kind, and will not be liable to Customer for losses of use, data, profit, revenue, income, business, anticipated savings, reputation, and more generally, any losses of an economic or financial nature, regardless of whether such losses may be deemed as consequential or arising directly and naturally from the incident giving rise to the claim, and irrespective of whether such losses are foreseeable or whether a party has been advised of the possibility of such losses. Excluding gross negligence or willful misconduct, EOS’s total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with this Agreement will in no event exceed actual, direct, and proven damages of the price of the Deliverables directly purchased by Customer under the purchase order giving rise to the claim. This limitation of liability will apply notwithstanding any failure of the essential purpose of any limited or exclusive remedy. To the extent this Agreement contains any specific remedies provided by EOS to Customer, regardless of form, such remedies will be provided by EOS on a sole and exclusive basis instead of any other remedies, damages, or losses.
