7. TITLE AND RISK
7.1 Gordon Brothers retains title to the Goods, and title to the Goods does not pass to the Buyer, until the Buyer pays in full the price for the Goods and all other amounts that are payable, owing but not payable, or that otherwise remain unpaid by the Buyer to Gordon Brothers on any account at any time. This is so even if the Buyer has taken possession of the Goods, or has enhanced or changed the Goods or performed work on them. Payment by cheque or other bill of exchange is not made until the cheque or bill is honoured in full.
7.2 The Goods and any proceeds from any dealing with the Goods are referred to in this clause collectively as the Collateral.
7.3 If the Buyer is permitted to remove the Goods before paying the price for the Goods and all other amounts payable, then until the Buyer pays in full the price for the Goods and all other amounts that are payable, the Buyer must:
7.3.1 store the Collateral properly and separately and mark the Collateral to identify it as being subject to Gordon Brothers’ security interest; and
7.3.2 fully insure the Collateral against loss or damage, ensuring that Gordon Brothers’ interest as a secured party is noted on the policy, and promptly give Gordon Brothers upon request a copy of the policy and evidence of its currency.
7.4 The Buyer undertakes, if it disposes of any Collateral, that it will receive proceeds at least equal to the market value of the Collateral, and that it will not allow any other security interest to exist over those proceeds if that security interest could rank ahead of Gordon Brothers’ security interest. If such a security interest does arise despite the previous sentence, the Buyer must ensure that it receives cash proceeds for the Collateral at least equal to the market value of the Collateral, and must immediately pay those proceeds to Gordon Brothers in reduction of the amount owing.
7.5 Gordon Brothers can apply amounts it receives from the Buyer towards amounts owing to it in such order as Gordon Brothers chooses.
7.6 Gordon Brothers and the Buyer agree not to disclose information of the kind mentioned in section 275(1) of the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (Cth) (PPSA), except in the circumstances required by sections 275(7)(b) to (e) of the PPSA. The Buyer agrees not to exercise its rights to make any request of Gordon Brothers under section 275 of the PPSA, to authorise the disclosure of any information under that section or to waive any duty of confidence that would otherwise permit non-disclosure under that section (but this does not limit the Buyer’s rights to request information other than under section 275).
7.7 To the extent the law permits:
7.7.1 for the purposes of sections 115(1) and 115(7) of the PPSA:
7.7.1.1 Gordon Brothers need not comply with sections 95, 118, 121(4), 125, 130, 132(3)(d) or 132(4); and
7.7.1.2 sections 142 and 143 are excluded;
7.7.2 for the purposes of section 115(7) of the PPSA, Gordon Brothers need not comply with sections 132 and 137(3); and
7.7.3 if the PPSA is amended to permit the Buyer and Gordon Brothers to agree to exclude other provisions of the PPSA, Gordon Brothers may notify the Buyer that Gordon Brothers need not comply with any of those provisions as notified to the Buyer by Gordon Brothers.
7.8 To the extent the law permits, the Buyer waives:
7.8.1 its rights to receive any notice that is required by:
7.8.1.1 any provision of the PPSA (including a notice of a verification statement) ; or
7.8.1.2 any other law before Gordon Brothers exercises a power, right, discretion or remedy; and
7.8.2 any time period that must otherwise lapse under any law before Gordon Brothers exercises a power, right, discretion or remedy.
7.9 If the law which requires a period of notice or a lapse of time cannot be excluded, but the law provides that the period of notice or lapse of time may be agreed, that period or lapse is one day or the minimum period the law allows to be agreed (whichever is the longer).
7.10 However, nothing in this clause prohibits Gordon Brothers from giving a notice under the PPSA or any other law.
7.11 If Gordon Brothers exercises a power, right, discretion or remedy in connection with these Terms, that exercise is taken not to be an exercise of a power, right, discretion or remedy under the PPSA unless Gordon Brothers states otherwise at the time of exercise. However, this clause does not apply to a power, right, discretion or remedy which can only be exercised under the PPSA.
7.12 The Buyer must promptly do anything Gordon Brothers requires to ensure that Gordon Brothers’ security interest in the Collateral is a perfected security interest and has priority over all other security interests.
7.13 Title to any intellectual property rights which may subsist in the Goods shall not transfer to the Buyer. Any use by the Buyer of the Goods (including without limitation computer software) shall be subject to the terms of any existing licence or other intellectual property rights in and to such Goods.
7.14 All risk in the Goods shall pass to the Buyer from and including the date the contract is formed under clause 2 or clause 3. The Buyer should obtain adequate insurance cover for the Goods from the relevant date as Gordon Brothers shall have no responsibility for the loss or theft of, or damage to, the Goods after this time.
7.15 If after the contract is formed the Buyer or Gordon Brothers discovers that Gordon Brothers does not have title or unencumbered title to the Goods, then either the Buyer and Gordon Brothers shall be entitled to rescind the contract. If the contract is rescinded in such circumstances, then Gordon Brothers shall refund any sums paid by the Buyer and, to the extent permitted by law, Gordon Brothers shall not have any further liability to the Buyer.
7.16 If prior to the removal of the Goods a third party claims title to or possession of the Goods, Gordon Brothers shall be entitled to rescind the contract and refund any sums paid by the Buyer and, to the extent permitted by law, Gordon Brothers shall not have any further liability to the Buyer.

8. HEALTH AND SAFETY
8.1 The Buyer acknowledges the Goods may require specialist handling or treatment prior to their removal from the Premises and during their subsequent transfer and use.
8.2 The Buyer shall be solely responsible for ensuring at its own expense and risk that it is aware of any relevant health and safety legislation or codes of conduct relating to the Goods and that such legislation or codes (as amended) are complied with in full both during the removal, transfer and subsequent use of the Goods as well as in connection with the disposal of any hazardous materials, substances or other waste from the Goods. The Buyer shall produce evidence of its compliance if requested by Gordon Brothers.

9.2 The Buyer shall contact Gordon Brothers to make arrangements for the removal of the Goods and shall effect such removal under the supervision of Gordon Brothers during normal operating hours, or as reasonably specified by Gordon Brothers, by no later than the due date for payment for the Goods. However, Gordon Brothers shall be under no obligation to release the Goods to the Buyer until it has been able to confirm to its satisfaction that it has received full payment for the Goods in cleared funds. Gordon Brothers shall release the Goods only to the Buyer or its authorised agent and not to any third party.
9.3 Prior to the removal of the Goods, the Buyer shall at its own expense and where reasonably necessary carry out, or procure the carrying out of, a full risk assessment to assess the risk of disconnecting, detaching, dismantling and/or removing the Goods from the Premises. The Buyer shall make the results of such assessment available to Gordon Brothers on request.
9.4 The Buyer must comply with any site access requirements, policies or rules (including, without limitation, requirements imposed by law, by Gordon Brothers or by a third party that owns, operates or occupies the site) and shall ensure that the Premises (including any electrical, gas, water, steam, waste or other supply or utility) are left in a safe condition following the removal of the Goods and shall make good any damage caused by it or its employees, representatives, agents or subcontractors in effecting the removal of the Goods.
9.5 The Buyer shall not use flame cutters, explosives or any other dangerous equipment, substance or process in connection with the removal of the Goods without the prior written permission of Gordon Brothers.
9.6 Where the Goods comprise buildings or plant housings, the Buyer shall at its own expense obtain any necessary planning permissions prior to the removal of the Goods. It is the sole responsibility of the Buyer to investigate whether any planning permission is required in relation to the Goods.
9.7 If Gordon Brothers has reasonable grounds to believe that damage is likely to be caused to the Premises as a result of the removal of the Goods, the Buyer may be required to deposit such sum by way of deposit as Gordon Brothers in its absolute discretion considers reasonable. If the Buyer refuses to deposit the sum requested, Gordon Brothers shall be entitled to refuse to allow the Buyer to remove the Goods and the Buyer shall be deemed to be in default under clause 10.
9.8 The Buyer shall ensure that it engages appropriately licensed and certified tradespeople to disconnect, detach or dismantle the Goods to the extent that is necessary to remove the Goods from the Premises (solely at the Buyer’s own cost).
9.9 The Buyer shall indemnify and keep indemnified Gordon Brothers against all liabilities, costs, claims, expenses, damages and losses (including but not limited to any direct, indirect or consequential losses, loss of profit, loss of reputation and all interest, penalties and legal costs (calculated on a full indemnity basis) and all other reasonable professional costs and expenses) (Liabilities) suffered, incurred or paid by Gordon Brothers arising out of or in connection with the Buyer’s inspection or removal of the Goods except to the extent that the Liabilities are caused or contributed to by Gordon Brothers.

The Buyer must pay interest together with any overdue amount on demand.
10.2 In the event that the Goods are not removed from the Premises by the due date for removal (whether by agreement or otherwise), then without prejudice to any other rights Gordon Brothers may have Gordon Brothers reserves the right to charge the Buyer for its reasonable storage and administration costs (including any relocation costs should these be necessary) until the earlier of the date the Goods are removed by the Buyer or the date Gordon Brothers rescinds the contract.
