2. if a variation to the Works originally scheduled (including any applicable plans or specifications) is requested; or

3. if during the course of the Works the Materials are not or cease to be available from Beattie Air’s third party suppliers, then Beattie Air reserves the right to provide alternate Materials (or components of the Materials); or

4. where additional Works are required due to the discovery of hidden or unidentifiable difficulties (including, but not limited to, poor weather, limitations to accessing the Worksite or insufficient crawl space, obscured building defects and damages which requires remedial work, safety considerations and/or health hazards (such as the discovery of asbestos or other hazardous materials), fluctuations in refrigerants, existing wiring not up to current code standards, prerequisite work by any third party not being completed, underground locations (as per clause 13), or further faults found on disassembly and/or further inspection etc.) which are only discovered on commencement of the Works; or

Failure to do so will entitle Beattie Air to add the cost of the variation to the Price. Payment for all variations must be made in full at the time of their completion.

At Beattie Air’s sole discretion a non-refundable deposit may be required.

Time for payment for the Works being of the essence, the Price will be payable by the Client on the date/s determined by Beattie Air, which may be:

1. on completion of the Works; or

2. on or before delivery of the Materials; or

3. by way of progress payments in accordance with Beattie Air’s specified progress payment schedule. Such progress payment claims may include the reasonable value of authorised variations and the value of any Materials delivered to the Worksite but not yet installed;

4. for certain approved Clients, due twenty (20) days following the end of the month in which a statement is posted to the Client’s address

   or address for notices;

5. the date specified on any invoice or other form as being the date for payment; or

6. failing any notice to the contrary, the date which is seven (7) days following the date of any invoice given to the Client by Beattie Air.

At the agreement of both parties, payment of the Price may be subject to retention by the Client of an amount (hereafter called the “Retention Money”), being a set amount or equal to a percentage of the Price. The Client shall hold the Retention Money for the agreed period following completion of the Works during which time all Works are to be completed and/or all defects are to be remedied. Any Retention Money applicable to this Contract is to be dealt with in accordance with Subpart 2A – sections 18(a) to 18(i) of the Construction Contracts Amendment Act 2015.

Payment may be made by cash, cheque, bank cheque, electronic/on-line banking, credit card (a surcharge may apply per transaction), or by any other method as agreed to between the Client and Beattie Air.

Beattie Air may in its discretion allocate any payment received from the Client towards any invoice that Beattie Air determines and may do so at the time of receipt or at any time afterwards. On any default by the Client Beattie Air may re-allocate any payments previously received and allocated. In the absence of any payment allocation by Beattie Air, payment will be deemed to be allocated in such manner as preserves the maximum value of Beattie Air’s Purchase Money Security Interest (as defined in the PPSA) in the Materials.

The Client shall not be entitled to set off against, or deduct from the Price, any sums owed or claimed to be owed to the Client by Beattie Air nor to withhold payment of any invoice because part of that invoice is in dispute, unless the request for payment by Beattie Air is a claim made under the Construction Contracts Act 2002.

Unless otherwise stated the Price does not include GST. In addition to the Price, the Client must pay to Beattie Air an amount equal to any GST Beattie Air must pay for any supply by Beattie Air under this or any other agreement for the sale of the Materials. The Client must pay GST, without deduction or set off of any other amounts, at the same time and on the same basis as the Client pays the Price. In addition, the Client must pay any other taxes and duties that may be applicable in addition to the Price except where they are expressly included in the Price.

Beattie Air will:

1. keep the Client’s personal details, including credit card details for only as long as is deemed necessary by Beattie Air;

2. not disclose the Client’s credit card details to any third party;

3. not unnecessarily disclose any of the Client’s personal information, except is accordance with the Privacy Act (clause 21) or where required by law.

The Client expressly agrees that, if pursuant to this Contract, there are:

1. any unpaid Charges;

2. other amounts due and outstanding by the Client;

3. any equipment (or any part of them) supplied on loan that are lost or damaged.

Beattie Air is entitled to immediately charge the Client’s nominated credit card for these amounts, and is irrevocably authorised to complete any documentation and take any action to recover from the credit card issuer any and all amounts which may be due by the Client pursuant to the terms of this Contract.

The commencement date shall be the date of the first delivery of the Works, or from the date of signing, whichever, is the earlier. The Maintenance Contract shall be for the period (‘initial term”) as agreed between both parties and shall revert to a monthly roll over basis automatically, thereafter, unless agreed otherwise until terminated by either party by giving at least thirty (30) days required notice as defined in the Maintenance Contract prior to the expiration date of the initial term or any additional term.

The Client acknowledges and accepts that the Price stated will remain fixed for an initial period of twelve (12) months from the date of the Maintenance Contract and will then be subject to revision on the basis of the movement in the Consumer Price Index (CPI).

Subject to clause 9.2 it is Beattie Air’s responsibility to ensure that the Works start as soon as it is reasonably possible.

The Works’ commencement date will be put back and the completion date extended by whatever time is reasonable in the event that Beattie Air claims an extension of time (by giving the Client written notice) where completion is delayed by an event beyond Beattie Air’s control, including but not limited to any failure by the Client to:

1. make a selection; or

2. have the Worksite ready for the Works; or

3. notify Beattie Air that the Worksite is ready.

At Beattie Air’s sole discretion, the cost of delivery is either included in the Price or is in addition to the Price.

Beattie Air may deliver the Works by separate instalments. Each separate instalment shall be invoiced and paid in accordance with the provisions in these terms and conditions.

Any time specified by Beattie Air for delivery of the Works is an estimate only and Beattie Air will not be liable for any loss or damage incurred by the Client as a result of delivery being late. However both parties agree that they shall make every endeavour to enable the Works to be supplied at the time and place as was arranged between both parties. In the event that Beattie Air is unable to supply the Works as agreed solely due to any action or inaction of the Client, then Beattie Air shall be entitled to charge a reasonable fee for re-supplying the Works at a later time and date, and/or for storage of the Materials.

If Beattie Air retains ownership of the Materials under clause 14.2 then:

1. where Beattie Air is supplying Materials only, all risk for the Materials shall immediately pass to the Client on delivery and the Client must insure the Materials on or before delivery. Delivery of the Materials shall be deemed to have taken place immediately at the time that either:

   1. the Client or the Client’s nominated carrier takes possession of the Materials at Beattie Air’s address; or

   2. the Materials are delivered by Beattie Air or Beattie Air’s nominated carrier to the Client’s nominated delivery address (even if the

      Client is not present at the address).

2. where Beattie Air is to both supply and install Materials then Beattie Air shall maintain a contract works insurance policy until the Works are completed. Upon completion of the Works all risk for the Works shall immediately pass to the Client.

Notwithstanding the provisions of clause 10.1 if the Client specifically requests Beattie Air to leave Materials outside Beattie Air’s premises for collection or to deliver the Materials to an unattended location then such materials shall always be left at sole risk of the Client and it shall be the Client’s responsibility to ensure the Materials are insured adequately or at all. In the event that such Materials are lost, damaged or destroyed then replacement of the Materials shall be at the Client’s expense.

The Client acknowledges and agrees that where Beattie Air has performed temporary repairs on the equipment that:

1. Beattie Air offers no guarantee against the reoccurrence of the initial fault, or any further damage caused; and

2. Beattie Air will immediately advise the Client of the fault and shall provide the Client with an estimate for the full repair of the damaged equipment.

Any advice, recommendation, information, assistance or service provided by Beattie Air in relation to the Works and/or Materials supplied is given in good faith, is based on Beattie Air‘s own knowledge and experience and shall be accepted without liability on the part of Beattie Air, and it shall be the responsibility of the Client to confirm the accuracy and reliability of the same in light of the use to which the Client makes or intends to make of the Works and/or Materials.

The Client warrants that any structures to which the Materials are to be affixed are able to withstand the installation of the Materials and that any electrical connections (including, but not limited to, meter boxes, main switches, circuit breakers, and electrical cable) are of suitable capacity to handle the Materials once installed. If, for any reason (including the discovery of asbestos, defective or unsafe wiring, or dangerous access to crawl spaces and/or roofing), Beattie Air reasonably forms the opinion that the Client’s premises is not safe for the installation of Materials to proceed then Beattie Air shall be entitled to delay installation of the Materials (in accordance with clause 9.2) until Beattie Air is satisfied that it is safe for the installation to proceed.

In the event asbestos or any other toxic substances are discovered at the property, that it is the Client’s responsibility to ensure the safe removal of the same. The Client further agrees to indemnify Beattie Air against any costs incurred by Beattie Air as a consequence of such discovery. Under no circumstances will Beattie Air handle removal of asbestos product.

All work will be tested to ensure that it is electrically safe and is in accordance with the wiring rules and other standards applying to the electrical installation under the Electrical Safety Regulations. All of the cabling work will comply with the Australian and New Zealand Wiring standards.

Where the Client has supplied materials for Beattie Air to complete the Works, the Client acknowledges that they accepts responsibility for the suitability of purpose, quality and any faults inherent in the materials. Beattie Air shall not be responsible for any defects in the Works, any loss or damage to the Materials (or any part thereof), howsoever arising from the use of materials supplied by the Client.

If, for any reason, the Client specifically requires the Materials to be installed in any way which goes against Beattie Air’s recommendations and/or falls below industry standards; a request detailing that requirement must be made in writing to Beattie Air. Accordingly, Beattie Air offers no warranty in regards to the aforementioned;

2. shall be entitled to rely on the accuracy of any plans, specifications and other information provided by the Client.

The Client agrees to be present at the Worksite when and as reasonably requested by Beattie Air and its employees, contractors and/or agents.

Worksite Inductions

1. in the event the Client requires an employee or sub-contractor of Beattie Air to undertake a Worksite induction during working hours, the Client will be liable to pay the hourly charges for that period. If any induction needs to be undertaken prior to the commencement date then the Client shall be liable to pay Beattie Air’s standard (and/or overtime, if applicable) hourly labour rate; or

2. where Beattie Air is in control of the Worksite, the Client and/or the Client’s third-party contractors must initially carry out Beattie Air’s Health & Safety induction course before access to the Worksite will be granted. Inspection of the Worksite during the course of the Works will be by appointment only and unless otherwise agreed, in such an event the Client and/or third party acting on behalf of the Client must at all times be accompanied by Beattie Air.

   
   

Whilst the final location of the condensing unit is at the discretion of the Client, a charge will apply as a variation as per clause 6.2, if the Client requests the unit to not be located adjacent to the external wall, due to the underground piping required.

The final location of the wall, window or floor unit will be as described in the quotation.

Beattie Air shall upon installation ensure that all installed equipment meet current industry standards applicable to noise levels, however Beattie Air cannot guarantee that noise levels will remain constant post installation as the equipment may be impacted by many factors such as the weather, lack of maintenance, tampering etc.

In the event that any of the equipment needs to be relocated due to complaints from neighbours or local authorities, then the Client shall be responsible for any and all costs involved.

The Client acknowledges and agrees that it is their responsibility to insure any equipment partly or completely installed on site, against theft or damage.

In the event that the electrical wiring is required to be re-positioned at the request of any third party contracted by the Client then the Client agrees to notify Beattie Air immediately upon any proposed changes. The Client agrees to indemnify Beattie Air against any additional costs incurred with such a relocation of electrical wiring. All such variances shall be invoiced in accordance with clause 6.2.

Prior to Beattie Air commencing any work the Client must advise Beattie Air of the precise location of all underground services on the Worksite and clearly mark the same. The underground mains and services the Client must identify include, but are not limited to, electrical services, gas services, sewer services, pumping services, sewer connections, sewer sludge mains, water mains, irrigation pipes, telephone cables, fibre optic cables, oil pumping mains, and any other services that may be on the Worksite.

If during the course of installation when the Works are being conducted within and around switchboards that if the same is found defective or deemed to be unsafe by Beattie Air, then Beattie Air shall notify the Client immediately. The power, if isolated, will not be re-energised until such time as the existing condition has been rectified and made safe in accordance to the Electrical Safety Regulations. The Client accepts and agrees that any costs associated with the rectification Works including any Materials and labour shall be the responsibility of the Client and will be shown as a variation on the invoice.

Any live services or Works undertaken near live conductors where it is safe to do so shall be dealt with in accordance with Australian and New Zealand Wiring standards being “Safe working on Low Voltage Electrical Installations, relevant Commonwealth and Statutory Acts and Work Place Regulations”. Beattie Air’s live services procedures are designed to eliminate risk of injury to Beattie Air’s employees, damage to the Client’s installations and unexpected power disconnections. It may in some cases require disconnection and isolation of the installation to undertake such Works for which additional charges may be applicable. This shall be invoiced in accordance with clause 6.2.

Beattie Air and the Client agree that where it is intended that the ownership of Materials is to pass to the Client that such ownership shall not pass until:

1. the Client has paid Beattie Air all amounts owing for the Works; and

2. the Client has met all other obligations due by the Client to Beattie Air in respect of all contracts between Beattie Air and the Client.

Upon assenting to these terms and conditions in writing the Client acknowledges and agrees that:

1. these terms and conditions constitute a security agreement for the purposes of the PPSA; and

2. a security interest is taken in all Materials and/or collateral (account) – being a monetary obligation of the Client to Beattie Air for Works –

   that have previously been supplied and that will be supplied in the future by Beattie Air to the Client.

The Client undertakes to:

1. sign any further documents and/or provide any further information (such information to be complete, accurate and up-to-date in all respects) which Beattie Air may reasonably require to register a financing statement or financing change statement on the Personal Property Securities Register;

2. indemnify, and upon demand reimburse, Beattie Air for all expenses incurred in registering a financing statement or financing change statement on the Personal Property Securities Register or releasing any Materials charged thereby;

The Client waives its rights as a debtor under sections 116, 120(2), 121, 125, 126, 127, 129, and 131 of the PPSA.

Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Beattie Air, the Client waives its right to receive a verification statement in accordance with section 148 of the PPSA.

The Client shall unconditionally ratify any actions taken by Beattie Air under clauses 16.1 to 16.5.

Subject to any express provisions to the contrary (including those contained in this clause 16), nothing in these terms and conditions is intended to have the effect of contracting out of any of the provisions of the PPSA.

In consideration of Beattie Air agreeing to supply the Works, the Client charges all of its rights, title and interest (whether joint or several) in any land, realty or other assets capable of being charged, owned by the Client either now or in the future, to secure the performance by the Client of its obligations under these terms and conditions (including, but not limited to, the payment of any money).

The Client shall afford Beattie Air an opportunity to inspect the Services within a reasonable time following delivery if the Client believes the Services are defective in any way. If the Client shall fail to comply with these provisions the Services shall be presumed to be free from any defect or damage.

For defective Services, which Beattie Air has agreed in writing that the Client is entitled to reject, Beattie Air’s liability is limited to either (at Beattie Air’s discretion) replacing the Services or rectifying the Services provided that the Client has complied with the provisions of clause 18.1.

Subject to the conditions of warranty set out in clause 19.2 Beattie Air warrants that if any defect in any workmanship of Beattie Air becomes apparent and is reported to Beattie Air within twelve (12) months of the date of delivery of services (time being of the essence) then Beattie Air will either (at Beattie Air’s sole discretion) replace or remedy the workmanship.

The Client agrees that Beattie Air may (at no cost) use for the purposes of marketing or entry into any competition, any documents, designs, drawings, plans or products which Beattie Air has created for the Client.

Interest on overdue invoices shall accrue daily from the date when payment becomes due, until the date of payment, at a rate of two and a half percent (2.5%) per calendar month (and at Beattie Air’s sole discretion such interest shall compound monthly at such a rate) after as well as before any judgment.

If the Client owes Beattie Air any money the Client shall indemnify Beattie Air from and against all costs and disbursements incurred by Beattie Air in recovering the debt (including but not limited to internal administration fees, legal costs on a solicitor and own client basis, Beattie Air’s collection agency costs, and bank dishonour fees).

Further to any other rights or remedies Beattie Air may have under this Contract, if a Client has made payment to Beattie Air, and the transaction is subsequently reversed, the Client shall be liable for the amount of the reversed transaction, in addition to any further costs incurred by Beattie Air under this clause 22, where it can be proven that such reversal is found to be illegal, fraudulent or in contravention to the Client’s obligations under this Contract.

Without prejudice to Beattie Air’s other remedies at law Beattie Air shall be entitled to cancel all or any part of any order of the Client which remains unfulfilled and all amounts owing to Beattie Air shall, whether or not due for payment, become immediately payable if:

Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies Beattie Air may have, if at any time the Client is in breach of any obligation (including those relating to payment and/or failure to remedy any breach in respect of this Contract within ten (10) working days of receipt by the Client of such notice/s) then Beattie Air may suspend or terminate the supply of the Works. Beattie Air will not be liable to the Client for any loss or damage the Client suffers because Beattie Air has exercised its rights under this clause.

Beattie Air may cancel any contract to which these terms and conditions apply or cancel delivery of Works at any time before the Works are commenced by giving written notice to the Client. On giving such notice Beattie Air shall repay to the Client any sums paid in respect of the Price, less any amounts owing by the Client to Beattie Air for Works already performed. Beattie Air shall not be liable for any loss or damage whatsoever arising from such cancellation.

1. cancels the delivery of Works the Client shall be liable for any and all loss incurred (whether direct or indirect) by Beattie Air as a direct result of the cancellation (including, but not limited to, any loss of profits);

2. cancels the provision of Works prior to the expiry of any specified contract term, then the Client shall be liable to pay for the provision of the Works until the expiration of the contact term;

Where the Contract is subject to section 24A of the Construction Contracts Amendment Act 2015, the Client hereby expressly acknowledges that:

   3. the Client has not complied with an adjudicator’s notice that the Client must pay an amount to Beattie Air by a particular date; and

   4. Beattie Air has given written notice to the Client of its intention to suspend the carrying out of construction work under the construction Contract.

   3. is entitled to an extension of time to complete the Contract; and

   4. keeps its rights under the Contract including the right to terminate the Contract; and may at any time lift the suspension, even if the

      amount has not been paid or an adjudicator’s determination has not been complied with.

3. if Beattie Air exercises the right to suspend work, the exercise of that right does not:

   1. affect any rights that would otherwise have been available to Beattie Air under the Contract and Commercial Law Act 2017; or

All costs and expenses incurred by Beattie Air as a result of such suspension and recommencement shall be payable by the Client as if they were a variation.

If pursuant to any right conferred by this Contract, Beattie Air suspends the Works and the default that led to that suspension continues un- remedied subject to clause 23.1 for at least ten (10) working days, Beattie Air shall be entitled to terminate the Contract, in accordance with clause 23.

1. the Contract extends to all rights of indemnity which the Client now or subsequently may have against the Trust and the trust fund;

2. the Client has full and complete power and authority under the Trust to enter into the Contract and the provisions of the Trust do not purport to exclude or take away the right of indemnity of the Client against the Trust or the trust fund. The Client will not release the right of indemnity or commit any breach of trust or be a party to any other action which might prejudice that right of indemnity;

The failure by either party to enforce any provision of these terms and conditions shall not be treated as a waiver of that provision, nor shall it affect that party’s right to subsequently enforce that provision.

These terms and conditions and any contract to which they apply shall be governed by the laws of New Zealand and are subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of Christchurch, New Zealand.

Except to the extent permitted by law “ CGA”, Beattie Air shall be under no liability whatsoever to the Client for any indirect and/or consequential loss and/or expense (including loss of profit) suffered by the Client arising out of a breach by Beattie Air of these terms and conditions (alternatively Beattie Air’s liability shall be limited to damages which under no circumstances shall exceed the Price of the Works).

Beattie Air may licence and/or assign all or any part of its rights and/or obligations under this Contract without the Client’s consent.

The Client cannot licence or assign without the written approval of Beattie Air.

Beattie Air may elect to subcontract out any part of the Works but shall not be relieved from any liability or obligation under this Contract by so doing. Furthermore, the Client agrees and understands that they have no authority to give any instruction to any of Beattie Air’s sub- contractors without the authority of Beattie Air.

The Client agrees that Beattie Air may amend their general terms and conditions for subsequent future contracts with the Client by disclosing such to the Client in writing. These changes shall be deemed to take effect from the date on which the Client accepts such changes, or otherwise at such time as the Client makes a further request for Beattie Air to provide Works to the Client.
