1.3           Where the words “include(s)”, “including”or “in particular”are used in these Conditions, they are deemed to have the words “without limitation”following them and where the context permits, the words “other”and “otherwise”are illustrative and shall not limit the sense of the words preceding them.

2.  THE CONTRACT

2.1           The Quote may be accepted by the Customer at any time during its period of validity by signing and returning a copy to the Supplier. By accepting the Quote the Customer appoints the Supplier to supply the Services to it in consideration of the Contract Price and subject to the terms of the Contract Documents. If the Customer does not sign and/or return a copy of the Quote, it will nevertheless be deemed to have accepted the Quote if, after receipt of the Quote, it accepts the provision of any (or any part of) the Services by the Supplier.

2.2           These Conditions shall:

(a)        apply to and be incorporated into the Contract; and

(b)        prevail over any inconsistent terms or conditions contained, or referred to, in the Customer’s purchase order, confirmation of order, acceptance of a quotation or specification, or implied by law, trade custom, practice or course of dealing.

2.3           Quotes are given by the Supplier on the basis that no Contract shall come into existence except in accordance with clause 2.1. Any Quote is valid for a period of 30 days from its date, provided that the Supplier has not previously withdrawn it. The appointment of the Supplier will commence upon receipt by the Supplier of a Quote signed by the Customer (or alternatively upon commencement of the Services) and will last until completion of the Services unless terminated in accordance with these Conditions.

2.4           In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of these Conditions and the Quote, the terms of the Quote will prevail.

3. SERVICES

3.1           Time for completion of the Services shall not be of the essence of the Contract.

3.2           The Customer acknowledges that submission of transmission paperwork is ultimately the Customer’s responsibility.  Subject to the remaining provisions of these Conditions, the Supplier will not be responsible for any fines or other penalties payable to either a broadcaster or OFCOM arising out of the provision of the Services.

3.3           The Supplier will send all transmission paperwork to the Customer.  The Supplier will subsequently submit the transmission paperwork to the relevant broadcaster if so agreed between the parties, upon the Customer giving its approval to the transmission paperwork and instructing the Supplier to submit the same to the broadcaster.  The Customer can give such approval either in writing (including email).

4. SUPPLIERS OBLIGATIONS

4.1           The Supplier shall use reasonable endeavours to provide the Services, and to deliver the Deliverables to the Customer, in accordance in all material respects with the Quote. The Supplier will perform the Services with reasonable care and skill.

4.2           The Supplier shall use all reasonable endeavours to observe all health and safety rules and regulations and any other reasonable security requirements that apply at the Customer’s premises and that have been communicated to it by the Customer, provided that it shall not be liable if, as a result of such observation, it is in breach of any of its obligations under this Contract.

5.  CUSTOMER OBLIGATIONS

(f)        ensure that any In-put Material to be used in performing the Services does not infringe any applicable law or third party Intellectual Property Rights.

5.2           If the Supplier’s performance of its obligations under the Contract is prevented or delayed by any act or omission of the Customer, its agents, sub-contractors or employees, or by any failure to comply with its obligations in clause 5.1 above, the Supplier shall not be liable for any costs, charges or losses sustained or incurred by the Customer arising directly or indirectly from such prevention, delay or failure.  Without prejudice to any other clause in these Conditions, the Supplier will be entitled to invoice (and be paid by the Customer) for Services supplied up to the date of the invoice, where the Supplier has been unable to deliver the full extent of the Services/complete the Deliverables due to any of the circumstances set out in this clause 5.2.

5.3           The Customer shall be liable to pay to the Supplier, on demand, all reasonable costs, charges or losses sustained or incurred by the Supplier (including any direct, indirect or consequential losses) arising directly or indirectly from the Customer’s fraud, negligence, failure to perform or delay in the performance of any of its obligations under the Contract subject to the Supplier confirming such costs, charges and losses to the Customer in writing.
