2 Sales

1. All orders are subject to review and acceptance by Acante by SOA and those specific terms shall prevail over any terms

or conditions which the Purchaser may seek or have sought to impose. No conditions in the Purchaser’s Order will be

binding unless expressly accepted in writing by Acante in the SOA and by an authorised representative.

2. Prices confirmed in the SOA exclude any applicable sales or value added or similar tax payable by the Purchaser and are

net of any and all withholding taxes that Purchaser may be required to retain at source.

3. Prices confirmed in the SOA are Ex-Works (“EXW”) under Incoterms 2020 and therefore exclude shipping and handling

charges, insurance, import or export duties or similar unless otherwise indicated.

4. Prices confirmed in the SOA are valid solely for the period specified in the SOA and are subject to revision without

notice as follows

– clerical errors may be corrected by Acante at any time including during the validity of the SOA.

– periodic amendments in published prices lists, whether due to changes in costs of components (e.g. due to currency

fluctuations or import or export taxes or duties or tariffs) or labour (e.g. due to salary increases or overtime demands)

may be made after expiry of the SOA

5. Purchasers may request Quotations for bespoke (one off and or customised products) with non-standard Specifications.

While reasonable care is taken to ensure accuracy, any non-standard Specifications produced as part of the Quotations

or SOA are intended to present a general idea of the Products described therein and shall not form part of the

applicable terms explicitly agreed by Acante in the SOA.

6. Acante reserves the right to incorporate new features and to supply Products which may not be strictly in accordance

with the specification agreed upon, provided that any changes in specification shall not materially prejudice the

performance of the Products.

7. Acante manufactures Products for each Purchaser to order on issuance of SOA, and has limited opportunities to resell

or switch Products ordered by one Purchaser to another. Cancellation after issue of SOA shall therefore result in

Purchaser being liable for the full order value without reduction.

3 Payment

1. Prompt settlement in cleared funds in full is the essence of the Contract.

2. Payment terms are confirmed in the SOA are subject to change at Acante’s discretion if the Purchaser’s financial

condition or payment record or other conduct merits such change.

as permitted in law. Only statutory notice shall be provided.

4. New Purchasers may be required to settle in cleared funds fifty percent (50%) of the total order value (including VAT) in

advance on submission of Order and issue of SOA, with the balance due before despatch. Existing Purchasers may be

offered additional credit terms based on past conduct.

the same.

2. If the Products being the property of Acante are mixed with goods being the property of any other person other than

the Purchaser or incorporated therein the product thereof shall become or shall be deemed to be owned in common

with that other person in proportion to the value of the constituent parts therein. The Purchaser is licensed by Acante

to agree to sell on the said Products subject to the express condition herein before mentioned in relation to the

proceeds of sale thereof.

the manufacture of other goods provided that if the Products being the property of Acante are mixed with goods being

the property of the Purchaser or are processed with or incorporated therein the product shall be deemed to be the sole

and exclusive property of Acante.

each Product unit (typically a kiosk) for internal purposes, and subject to documentation provided with the Software (if

any). Third party license terms (if any are included with such documentation) will take precedence over these license

terms.

7 Default

– commence recovery possession of the relevant Products to which the default relates and Purchaser shall allow free

access to Acante or designed agents to do the same.

2. No waiver or delay by Acante to exercise any rights under this clause shall imply acceptance of the default or

subsequent default.

3. In the event that Purchaser shall enter bankruptcy, liquidation, administration, receivership or similar, Acante may

terminate the Contract with immediate effect by written notice to the Purchaser or relevant authority and again

recover possession of all Product for which full payment has not been received. Any Software licence may be

terminated with immediate effect at Acante’s discretion.

labour, delays in delivery or material by suppliers, prohibition of export or import, confiscation of any other

occurrences (whether or not of a similar nature to those specified) beyond the control of Acante. No consequences of

incapable of performance.
