(b) any act by the Supplier consistent with fulfilling the Order,
at which point and on which date the Contract shall come into existence (Commencement Date).
2.3 These Conditions apply to the Contract to the exclusion of any other terms that the Supplier seeks to impose or incorporate, or which are
implied by trade, custom, practice or course of dealing.
2.4 All of these Conditions shall apply to the supply of both Goods and Services except where the application to one or the other is specified.
3. SUPPLY OF GOODS
3.1 The Supplier shall ensure that the Goods shall:
(a) correspond with their description and any applicable Goods Specification;
(b) be of satisfactory quality (within the meaning of the Sale of Goods Act 1979) and fit for any purpose held out by the
Supplier or made known to the Supplier by Joloda, expressly or by implication, and in this respect Joloda relies on the
Supplier’s skill and judgment;
(c) where applicable, be free from defects in design, materials and workmanship and remain so for 24 months after the date
on which they are first put into commercial use or are incorporated into another product, or as otherwise agreed between
the parties; and
(d) comply with all applicable statutory and regulatory requirements relating to the manufacture, labelling, packaging,
storage, handling and delivery of the Goods.
3.2 The Supplier shall ensure that at all times it has and maintains all the licences, permissions, authorisations, consents and permits that it
needs to carry out its obligations under the Contract in respect of the Goods.
3.3 Joloda shall have the right to inspect and test the Goods at any time before delivery.
3.4 If following such inspection or testing Joloda considers that the Goods do not conform or are unlikely to comply with the Supplier’s
undertakings at clause 3.1, Joloda shall inform the Supplier and the Supplier shall immediately take such remedial action as is necessary to
ensure compliance.
3.5 Notwithstanding any such inspection or testing, the Supplier shall remain fully responsible for the Goods and any such inspection or testing
shall not reduce or otherwise affect the Supplier’s obligations under the Contract, and Joloda shall have the right to conduct further
inspections and tests after the Supplier has carried out its remedial actions.
4. DELIVERY OF GOODS
4.1 The Supplier shall ensure that:
(a) the Goods are properly packed and secured in such manner as to enable them to reach their destination in good
condition;
(b) each delivery of the Goods is accompanied by a delivery note which shows the date of the Order, the Order number (if
any), the type and quantity of the Goods (including the code number of the Goods (where applicable)), special storage
instructions (if any) and, if the Goods are being delivered by instalments, the outstanding balance of Goods remaining to
be delivered; and
(c) if the Supplier requires Joloda to return any packaging material for the Goods to the Supplier, that fact is clearly stated on
the delivery note. Any such packaging material shall only be returned to the Supplier at the cost of the Supplier.

the excess Goods,
and any rejected Goods shall be returnable at the Supplier’s risk and expense. If the Supplier delivers more or less than the quantity of
Goods ordered, and Joloda accepts the delivery, a pro rata adjustment shall be made to the invoice for the Goods.
4.5 The Supplier shall not deliver the Goods in instalments without Joloda’s prior written consent. Where it is agreed that the Goods are
delivered by instalments, they may be invoiced and paid for separately. However, failure by the Supplier to deliver any one instalment on
time or at all or any defect in an instalment shall entitle Joloda to the remedies set out in clause 6.1.

Delivery Location.
