pre-estimate of Supplier’s loss resulting from Customer’s failure to make payment when it is due. The daily charge
(including GST) is the overdue amount multiplied by the Daily Rate. The Daily Rateis the rate determined by

exceeds the credit limit set by Supplier for Customer, Supplier may in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time
and without notifying Customer, suspend or cancel those orders or all or any part of any delivery under such
orders, for as long as Customer’s credit limit is exceeded, including any order which Supplier has already
confirmed.

the Product from Supplier’s premises or the Product is otherwise collected from Supplier’s premises on
Customer’s behalf.
(e) Supplier may deliver the Product in installments. Each installment will be treated as a sale under this Agreement.
If Supplier fails to deliver any installment, Customer must still accept and pay for the remaining installments. If

(ii) Supplier will have a PMSI in any Proceeds of the Product.

acknowledges that a fiduciary relationship exists between Customer and Supplier. Customer must store the

purposes of inspecting the Product or to repossess the Product in the event of any Customer default under these

manufacturing, mixing or other value adding process (Value Adding Process). If Customer chooses to do so:

destroy the essential identity or character of the Product, even if benefit accrues to Supplier as a result;
(ii)
where the essential identity or character of the Product is destroyed, Customer will hold such part of the
product of the Value Adding Process as relates to the price of the product which form part of, or a
constituent ingredient of, the product on trust for Supplier (“Value Added Goods).
(g) Customer acknowledges that, if any Product or Value Added Goods are sold before Customer has paid for all
Product in full, Customer is selling as a fiduciary agent of Supplier, provided that such sales will not give rise to
any obligations on Supplier’s part. Customer will hold the price of the Product, or the part of the Proceeds that
relate to the Product, on trust for Supplier. Customer must hold these Proceeds in a separate account that clearly
identifies the Proceeds as monies held on trust for and on behalf of Supplier.
