“the Terms and Conditions” means these terms and conditions for the sale of Products by MREL to the Customers.

3. Characteristics of the Products
Any information relating to the Products and their use, such as weights, dimensions, capacities, prices, colours and other data contained in the Catalogue or prospectuses, circulars, advertisements, illustrations, price-lists of MREL, shall not take effect as terms of the Contract.

4. Orders
Orders are initiated by the Customer’s purchase order received by MREL either in writing, by telephone, Internet, e-mail or fax. Purchase orders shall identify the Products, unit quantities, part numbers, descriptions, applicable prices and designate if delivery shall be made by
- Postal parcel
- DPD
- Courier

Purchase orders are subject to MREL’s written acceptance and to these Terms and Conditions.
Irrespective of means of communication, it is the sole responsibility of the Customer to verify that MREL has received the purchase order or any other kind of message sent by the Customer to MREL. MREL does not assume any responsibility whatsoever for any loss or damages caused by breakdowns in communication beyond MREL’s reasonable control.

5. Delivery
Delivery shall be “Ex Works” (EXW) (Incoterms 2000, International Chamber of Commerce). Selection of the carrier and delivery route will be made by MREL. On the Customer’s request MREL may provide the Customer with an estimated delivery date. The Customer acknowledges that any such delivery dates provided by MREL are estimates only and that MREL shall not be liable for failure to deliver on such dates.

The amount of all transportation charges from MREL’s facility shall be paid to MREL by the Customer in addition to the purchase price of the Products. Delivery to a carrier shall constitute delivery to the Customer, and risk of loss and delay shall thereupon pass to the Customer. Products invoiced and held by MREL at the Customer’s request shall be held at the Customer’s risk and expense.

6. Passing of Title
Notwithstanding that the Customer obtains possession of the Products, ownership of the Products shall remain with MREL until such time as MREL has received payment in full for all sums due to it from the Customer. If any sum is overdue for payment in whole or in part MREL may (without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to it) recover and re-sell the Products or any of them.

The Customer may not sell the Products to a third party before MREL has received payment in full. If such a sale is made the Customer shall account to MREL for the proceeds of sale received up to the total amount outstanding in respect of the Products.

7. Claims
The Customer shall examine the Products as soon as possible after their arrival at destination. Claims for shortages and damage must immediately be made to carrier.

If delivery (as defined in Article 5 above) has been made prior to MREL’s receipt of such cancellation, the Customer’s right to cancel shall be subject to the Customer’s return of the Products at his own risk and expense.
