   2. Unless the Seller agrees otherwise, only the specifications referred to in the quotation shall form part of the Contract.
   3. The Seller reserves the right subject to giving prior written notice to the Buyer to modify the said specifications where the Goods cannot in the opinion of the Seller be manufactured according to the said specifications and the Buyer agrees to accept the Goods as manufactured according to the specifications so modified in satisfaction of the Seller's obligations as to manufacture of the Goods under the Contract.
   4. To the extent that the Goods are to be manufactured in accordance with a specification supplied by the Buyer, the Buyer shall indemnify the Seller against all liabilities, costs, expenses, damages and losses (including any direct, indirect or consequential losses, loss of profit, loss of reputation and all interest, penalties and legal and other reasonable professional costs and expenses) suffered or incurred by the Seller in connection with any claim made against the Seller for actual or alleged infringement of a third party's intellectual property rights arising out of or in connection with the Seller's use of such specification.

5. DELIVERY
   1. Unless otherwise agreed by the Seller in writing, the Seller will deliver the Goods to the Delivery Location.

   3. If the Seller fails to deliver the Goods (or any instalment thereof) the Seller's liability shall be limited to the excess (if any) of the cost to the Buyer (in the cheapest available market) of similar goods to replace those not delivered over the Price of the Goods. The Seller shall have no liability for any failure to deliver the Goods to the extent that such failure is caused by a Force Majeure Event, the Buyer's fault, or the Buyer's failure to provide the Seller with adequate instructions in relation to delivery or otherwise.
   4. The Buyer shall provide the Seller with clear delivery instructions and accept delivery on the Delivery Date and at the Delivery Location. Upon delivery the Buyer shall sign a delivery note which will be conclusive evidence that delivery of the Goods has been made.

The Buyer shall ensure that at least one representative is available to assist the Seller during the unloading of the Goods. Other than by reason of the Seller's fault, the Buyer shall be charged, as an Additional Charge, for wasted time at the Wasted Time Rate and any other expenses incurred by the Seller for:

   8. The Seller shall have the right to deliver any Goods ordered in instalments. Failure by the Seller to deliver any one or more of the instalments in accordance with these Conditions or any claim by the Buyer in respect of the Goods delivered in any one or more instalments shall not entitle the Buyer either to treat the Contract as a whole as repudiated or to reject or refuse to take delivery of any of the Goods delivered in any other instalment.
