LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
PPI’s Performance of Services. If you are a Commercial Customer, Commercial Customer will hold harmless, defend and indemnify PPI, its officers, directors, employees, agents, subcontractors or representatives from and against any and all claims, including bodily injury, death, or damage to personal property, and all other losses, liabilities, obligations, demands, actions and expenses, whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, absolute or contingent, incurred by PPI or its designated agents related to the performance of Services for Commercial Customer (including without limitation, settlement costs, legal fees, and any and all other expenses for defending any actions or threatened actions) arising out of, in whole or in part, any act or omission of Customer, its employees, agents, subcontractors or representatives.
PPI and Customer are independent contractors and not principal and agent. Nothing contained in these Terms and Conditions shall be construed to create a franchise, partnership, dealership, reseller, agency, employment or joint venture relationship. Customer will not have the right to bind or otherwise obligate PPI in any manner, nor will Customer represent to anyone that it has the right to do so.
As a condition of, and in consideration of PPI accepting any order pursuant to these Terms and Conditions, all Commercial Customers (whether in India or otherwise) purchasing for export, or for resale within India acknowledge and accept the applicability of these Terms and Conditions. Absent a specific contrary written agreement, all Commercial Customers further agree that by PPI accepting any order that no agency, franchise, dealer or other similar commercial relationship is established. All orders shall thus be individual trade orders.
Events Outside Our Control. PPI shall not be liable for any delay in, or impairment of, performance resulting in whole or in part from any event outside our control, including but not limited to, acts of God, labour disruptions, acts of war, acts of terrorism (whether actual or threatened), epidemics, shortages, communication or power failures, fire, accident, explosion, inability to procure or ship product or obtain permits and licences, inability to procure supplies or raw materials, severe weather conditions, catastrophic events, or any other circumstance or cause beyond the reasonable control of PPI in the conduct of its business. If PPI’s supply is delayed by an event outside our control, PPI will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and PPI will take steps to minimise the effect of the
delay. PPI shall not be liable for any such failure or delay in manufacture or delivery of Product and/or the provision of Services as a result of any such matter or occurrence wholly or partially beyond its control. In the event of shortage, PPI may allocate sales and deliveries in its sole discretion.
Other Liability Conditions; Indemnification; Disclaimer. If you are a Commercial Customer, Commercial Customer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless PPI, its successors, assigns, affiliates, agents and contractors, and the officers, managers, directors and employees of each of them (each a “PPI Indemnified Party”), from and against any damage, loss, claim, judgment or other liability or expense (including but not limited to reasonable legal fees) that may in any way relate to or arise
out of any act or omission in connection with (i) Commercial Customer’s use of this Website and,
(ii) except to the extent caused by PPI, the purchase, resale, use or misuse of Product by Commercial Customer, any third party or Customer’s successors, assigns, affiliates, agents and contractors, or the officers, managers, directors or employees of any of them. PPI reserves the right, without being required to do so, and without waiver of any indemnity hereunder, to defend any claim, action or lawsuit coming within the scope of this indemnity provision.
PPI will not be liable for personal injury or property damage arising out of (i) the Customer’s neglect, alteration or improper use, including failure to follow installation, operating and maintenance conditions prescribed in the Product’s installation manual; (ii) repairs performed by anyone other than authorised PPI service representatives; or (iii) use of supplies or parts that do not meet PPI’s specifications. If you are a Commercial Customer, Commercial Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each PPI Indemnified Party against any damage, loss, claims, liabilities, costs, expenses, legal fees arising out of any or all of (i), (ii) or (iii) in the preceding sentence.
Nothing in these Terms and Conditions exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury resulting from our negligence or from any fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation nor any other liability which cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
If we fail to comply with these Terms and Conditions, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable or not our fault. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious
that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the process.
We are not liable for loss or damage that results from our failure to comply with these Terms and Conditions that fall into the following categories (whether direct or indirect):
- loss of income or revenue;
- loss of business;
- loss of profits;
- loss of anticipated savings;
- loss of data;
- loss of expected returns;
- losses that were not caused by our breach; and
- waste of management or office time.
However, this will not prevent claims for loss of or damage to your tangible property that are foreseeable or any other claims for direct loss that are not excluded in the former categories. In respect of Services we provide, we are not responsible for the cost of repairing any pre-existing faults or damage to your property that we discover while providing the Services.
Subject to the above, our maximum aggregate liability under or connection with these Terms and Conditions whether in contract, tort (including negligence), shall in all circumstances be limited to the greater of (i) a sum equal to 100% of the price paid for the Product.
OTHER IMPORTANT TERMS
Assignment. Commercial Customer shall not assign any order, or any interest therein or in these Terms and Conditions, without the prior written consent of PPI. Any actual or attempted assignment without PPI’s prior written consent shall be void and shall entitle PPI to cancel such order upon notice to Commercial Customer.
Transfer of Rights. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation. We will always tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract.
Amendments. These Terms and Conditions may not be altered, supplemented or amended by the use of any other document unless otherwise agreed in writing by both PPI and Customer.
No Third Party Benefit. Except as expressly set out elsewhere, the provisions stated herein are for the sole benefit of the parties hereto, and confer no rights, benefits or claims upon any person or entity under the Contracts.
Waivers. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you, but we continue to provide the Products, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
If a Court finds part of this Contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of these terms operates separately. If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable then the remaining provisions of these Terms and Conditions remain in full force.
Complete Agreement. If you are a Commercial Customer, the terms and conditions in: (i) PPI’s forms; (ii) acknowledgments, (iii) quotations; (iv) invoices; (v) websites; (vi) catalogues or brochures; (vii) extension of credit and (viii) any other documents or terms referred to within are incorporated herein by reference, and constitute the final, entire and exclusive agreement between Commercial Customer and PPI. Any attempt by a Commercial Customer to supplement or amend these Terms and Conditions or to enter an order for Product pursuant to terms that are subject to additional or altered terms and conditions shall be null and void. If you are a Commercial Customer, the provisions of these Terms and Conditions may not be explained, supplemented or qualified through evidence of trade usage or a prior course of dealings. In the event that a customer’s relationship is governed by a written agreement, reseller or licence agreement then that respective agreement to the extent applicable shall take precedence over the terms stated in (g) herein.
Headings. The section headings used are for convenience or reference only and do not form a part of these Terms and Conditions, and no construction or inference shall be derived from them.
Rights and Remedies Cumulative. If you are a Commercial Customer, please note any enumeration of PPI’s rights and remedies set forth in these Terms and Conditions is not intended to be exhaustive. PPI’s exercise of any right or remedy under these Terms and Conditions does not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy. All of PPI’s rights and remedies are cumulative and are in addition to any other right or remedy stated in these Terms and Conditions or that may now or subsequently exist at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise.
