govern
all
Contracts to the exclusion of all other terms and conditions.
2.2 Without prejudice to Clause 2.1, any reference to any of the Customer's terms and conditions in any
document
forming part of or evidencing a Contract will not have the effect of incorporating any such terms and
conditions
into the Contract, nor of forming any other contract between the parties for the purchase of the
Products.
3. Contracts
3.1 The advertising of Products on www.Molport.com, and any quotation given by Molport for the supply of
Products,
constitutes an "invitation to treat" and not a contractual offer.
3.2 No contract will come into force between Molport and the Customer for the sale and supply of
Products
except in
accordance with this Clause 3.
3.3 There are two distinct procedures for entering into Contracts with Molport for the sale and supply
of
Products:
- (a) Contracts may be entered into using the shopping cart and checkout procedure on www.Molport.com
detailed in
Clause 3.4; or
- (b) Contracts may be entered into using the quotation procedure detailed in Clause 3.5.
3.4 In order to enter into a Contract to purchase products from Molport using the shopping cart and
checkout
procedure, the Customer will need to take the following steps:
- (a) the Customer must add the products the Customer wishes to purchase to the shopping cart, and
then
proceed to
the checkout;
- (b) if the Customer is a new customer, the Customer may then create an account with Molport and log
in;
if the
Customer is an existing customer, the Customer may enter its login details; Customers may also
proceed
to make a
purchase without registering;
- (c) the Customer must next select the preferred method of delivery and confirm the order and the
Customer's
consent to these terms of sale and supply;
- (d) unless the Customer is a Molport account holder and opts to pay using its account, the Customer
will
be
transferred to the website of Molport's payment services provider, who will process the Customer's
payment; the
Customer must also send to Molport using the website contact form details of any specific version of
a
Product
that may be required, such as specific salt form, stereo or nuclear isomer, and details of any
specific
packaging required;
- (e) Molport will next send to the Customer an initial acknowledgement (including confirmation of the
price of
the relevant Products);
- (f) once Molport has checked whether it is able to meet the order, Molport will either send to the
Customer an
order confirmation (at which point the order will become a binding Contract) or Molport will confirm
by
email
that it is unable to meet the order; and
- (g) before an order is placed, the Customer will have the opportunity of identifying whether any
input
errors
have been made, and or correcting such input errors.
3.5 This Clause 3.5 sets out the procedure by which a Contract may be entered into between Molport and
the
Customer
where Molport issues a quotation to the Customer:
- (a) in order to request a quotation for the supply of Products, the Customer must: (i) identify the
Products
required using the website search and browse facilities; and (ii) contact Molport to request a
quotation,
providing full details of the Products required (including details of any specific version of a
Product
that may
be required, such as specific salt form, stereo or nuclear isomer, and details of any specific
packaging
required), the address for delivery, and any specific date for delivery;
- (b) Molport may then provide a written quotation to the Customer, which will be valid for 30 days or
such other
period as Molport may specify in the quotation;
- (c) the Customer may indicate that the terms of the quotation are acceptable by giving to Molport
written notice
that that is the case (for the purposes of contract law, this shall be deemed to be an offer by the
Customer to
Molport to enter into the Contract); and
- (d) a Contract between Molport and the Customer for the sale and purchase of the relevant Products
will
come
into force (unless Molport and the Customer expressly agree otherwise) if and only if Molport: (i)
notifies the
Customer that the order will be fulfilled; and (ii) receives in cleared funds from the Customer all
amounts due
in respect of the Products (unless the Customer has a Molport account, in which case the Contract
will
come into
force when Molport notfies the Customer that the order will be fulfilled).
3.6 Molport may cancel a Contract insofar as it relates to particular Products, by giving to the
Customer
written
notice of cancellation at any time before delivery of those Products, if:
- (a) a Force Majeure Event prevents the sourcing or delivery of the Products; or
- (b) the Products in question are or become out of stock,
in which cases any amounts paid to Molport under the Contract will (at the option of the Customer) be
refunded to
the Customer or a credit note will be issued to the Customer.
3.7 Molport may increase and otherwise amend:
- (a) the price of Products under a Contract; and/or
- (b) the other charges and costs payable under a Contract,
by giving to the Customer written notice of the increase at any time before the shipping of those
Products,
if there
is a material increase in the cost to Molport of obtaining the Products or of paying the other charges
and
costs,
providing that any increase under this Clause must not exceed the amount of the increase in cost to
Molport.
4. Delivery
4.1 Unless otherwise agreed in writing:
- (a) all Products will be delivered to the address specified by the Customer;
- (b) Molport will be responsible for arranging loading, carriage, transport, unloading and for
clearing
the
Products for export;
- (c) Molport will be responsible for paying all costs relating to loading, carriage, transport,
unloading
and
export of the Products (subject to reimbursement in accordance with Clause 7); and
- (d) risk in the Products will pass from Molport to the Customer when the Products are dispatched to
the
Customer
(whether dispatched by Molport or by a third party).
4.2 Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Customer will be responsible for clearing the Products for
import into
the destination jurisdiction, and for paying (directly to the relevant authorities) any applicable
import
taxes and
duties.
4.3 If the parties agree, or if Product availability means that a single delivery is in Molport's
opinion
impractical or undesirable, the delivery of the Products under a Contract will be by instalments. In
these
circumstances, each instalment will constitute part of a single Contract, and not separate contracts. A
delay in the
delivery of any part of a Contract's Products will not relieve the Customer of its obligation to accept
each
delivery.
4.4 Molport shall aim to delivery Products to the Customer on or around the estimated delivery date or
dates
specified by Molport during the checkout process or quotation process, but does not guarantee that the
Products will
be delivered on that date or those dates.
5. Title
5.1 Legal and equitable title to the Products will pass from Molport to the Customer upon the later of:
- (a) delivery of the Products; and
- (b) receipt by Molport of all amounts due from the Customer to Molport under the relevant Contract.
5.2 Until title to the Products has passed to the Customer:
- (a) the Customer will hold the Products as fiduciary agent and bailee of Molport;
- (b) the Customer will: (i) store the Products at its own premises in a secure, safe, dry and clean
environment
separately from other products and goods; (ii) ensure that the Products are easily identifiable as
belonging to
Molport; (iii) not deface, destroy, alter or obscure any identifying mark on the Products or their
packaging;
(iv) ensure that no charge, lien or other encumbrance is created over the Products; and (v) deliver
up
the
Products to Molport upon demand.
5.3 Molport may bring an action for the price of Products, and any other amounts due under a Contract,
notwithstanding that title to the Products has not passed to Customer.
6. Customers acknowledgements and obligations
6.1 The Customer acknowledges that the Products may be hazardous, and undertakes to properly and fully
investigate
and verify such hazards before purchasing Products and also before using the Products for any particular
purpose.
6.2 The Customer acknowledges that the Products are intended primarily for laboratory use and, unless

6.3 The Customer acknowledges that Molport does not test Products purchased for safety or efficacy as a
food, drug,

7.4 Unless the Customer has a Molport account, payment must be made upon the submission of the

amount
due under

credit
limits as Molport may notify to the Customer from time to time. Where a partial dispatch is made under a

Molport will issue an invoice for the dispatched Products only. The Customer must not delay the payment
of
any
invoice on the grounds of a partial dispatch or delivery.
