any other terms or conditions without the prior written consent of NETLab.
2.2 Any written quotation provided by NETLab to the Customer concerning
the proposed supply of goods or services is valid for 30 days and is an
invitation only to the Customer to place an order based upon that
quotation. These Conditions may be supplemented by additional terms in
NETLab's quotation which are not inconsistent with these Conditions.
3.0 Charges and Payment
3.1 Payment for goods and services must be made by credit card on or prior
to the completion of the provision of goods or services unless the
Customer has a credit account with NETLab.
3.2 All NETLab visits are non chargeable and are charged in half hour
units after the first hour. Any part thereof is chargeable at the same
rate as a full half hour.
3.3 All goods supplied by NETLab are charged separately from the services.

to the goods or services, NETLab may vary its price for goods or services
on order to take account of any such change, without giving notice to the
Customer.

suburb.
4.0 Payment Default
4.1 If the Customer defaults in payment by the due date of any amount
payable to NETLab, or if any cheque drawn by the Customer is dishonored,
then all money which is then due as well as all monies that are payable by
the Customer to NETLab at a later date on any account, shall be due and
payable immediately without the requirement of any notice to the Customer,
and NETLab may, without prejudice to any other right or remedy available
to it:-
(a) charge the Customer interest on any sum due at the rate of 2% above
the corporate reference rate of NETLab’s principal banker. This interest
shall be calculated daily and compounded every 30 days for the period from
the due date until the date of payment in full; and
(b) charge the Customer for all expenses and costs (including debt
collection commission and fees, legal costs on a full indemnity basis and
dishonored cheque fees) suffered or incurred by NETLab resulting from the
default and in NETLab taking whatever action it deems appropriate to
recover any amounts due (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include
engaging Dun & Bradstreet or other debt collection agency to seek to
recover the amounts due); and
(c) cease or suspend for such period as NETLab thinks fit, supply of any
further goods or services to the Customer; and
(d) by notice in writing to the Customer, terminate any contract with the

arrangement or any assignment or composition with or for the benefit of

and manager appointed, or any action is taken for, or with the view to,
the liquidation (including provisional liquidation), winding up or
dissolution without winding up of the Customer.

5.1 Until full payment in cleared funds is received by NETLab for all
goods supplied by it to the Customer, as well as all other amounts owing
to NETLab by the Customer:
(a) title and property in all goods remain vested in NETLab and do not
pass to the Customer;
(b) the Customer must hold the goods as fiduciary bailee and agent for
NETLab;
(c) the Customer must keep the goods separate from its goods and maintain
the labeling and packaging of the goods; the Customer is required to hold
the proceeds of any sale of the goods on trust for NETLab in a separate
account however failure to do so will not affect the Customer's obligation
to deal with the proceeds as trustee;
(d) NETLab may without notice, enter any premises where it suspects the
goods may be and remove them, notwithstanding that they may have been
attached to other goods not the property of NETLab, and for this purpose

indemnifies NETLab from and against all costs, claims, demands or actions
by any party arising from such action.

or otherwise in respect of the goods shall pass to the Customer
immediately upon delivery of the goods to the premises nominated by the
Customer.

by NETLab is intended as an estimate only and is not a contractual
commitment. NETLab will use its reasonable endeavors to meet any estimated
dates for delivery of the goods or completion of the services.
8.0 NETLab Warranties

materials and workmanship for a period of 10 days from the date of
delivery.

products supplied by NETLab (including any software) will be uninterrupted
or error free. Customer understands and accepts that all such goods and
products (and information technology and communications products
generally), may have errors (or "bugs") and may encounter unexpected
problems, and accordingly Customer may experience downtime and errors in
the use of the goods and products. Without limiting the obligations set
out in clause 9, Customer will put in place reasonable internal procedures
and processes to enable it to minimize any inconvenience and any adverse
impact of any such downtime or error.
8.4 NETLab will comply with its obligations under the Privacy Act 1988 and
