Until the date of actual payment in full the Customer shall hold the Goods clearly identified as the property of Tekmos, properly insured and unmixed with other Goods.
Notwithstanding the foregoing and pending actual payment for the Goods the Customer shall be entitled to sell the Goods to a third party on the basis of Tekmos conditions of sale as agent for Tekmos and the Customer shall hold such proceeds of sale on trust for Tekmos and shall keep all proceeds (including the proceeds of any insurance claim) separate from any monies or property of the Customer or third parties. Until such time as the title in the Goods passes to the Customer (and provided the Goods are still in existence and have not been resold) Tekmos shall be entitled at any time to require the Customer to deliver up the Goods to Tekmos and if the Customer fails to do so forthwith to enter upon the premises of the Customer or any third party where the Goods are stored and reposess the Goods.

8. Defective Goods and Consequential Loss
If the Goods shall prove defective or otherwise not of a merchantable quality Tekmos will replace them or at Tekmos absolute discretion refund the purchase price.
It is in every instance for the Customer to satisfy himself that the Goods are fit and suitable for the purpose for which they are required. Save as set out in above all warranties and conditions expressed or implied, statutory or otherwise, as to the quality or fitness of any purpose of the Goods are expressly excluded and no warranty, condition, description on representation is to be taken as having been given or implied by anything said or written by or on behalf of Tekmos on or prior to the Goods being ordered.
Without prejudice to the generality of the first paragraph of Section 8 it is expressly agreed and understood by the Customer that Tekmos liability in respect of defective or otherwise un merchantable Goods shall under no circumstances whatsoever extend beyond the price paid for such Goods; in particular Tekmos shall not be liable for any damage to property nor any consequential loss of whatsoever nature, howsoever caused, arising out of any defect in the Goods, or from their failure to correspond to any description or representation or from the unsuitability for any purpose.
Defects in or damage to Goods delivered or loss of Goods in transit shall entitle Customer to cancel the remainder of any order or Contract. If the Customer alleges that Goods supplied are defective under terms of the first paragraph of Section 8 the Customer will return them carriage paid to Tekmos premises. If after examination by Tekmos, it is established that the Goods are defective then Tekmos will refund to the Customer the reasonable cost of carriage.

the Customer makes any voluntary arrangement with its creditors or becomes subject to an administration order or (being an individual or firm) becomes basker or (being a company) goes into liquidation (otherwise than for the purpose of amalgamation or reconstruction) or an encumbrance takes possesion, or a receiver is appointed for any of the property or assets of the Customer; or the Customer ceases, or threatens to cease, to carry on business; or Tekmos reasonably apprehends that any of the events mentioned above is about to occur in relation to the Customer and notifies the Customer accordingly.
If the first paragraph of Section 10 applies, then without prejudice to any other right or remedy available to Tekmos, Tekmos shall be entitled to cancel the Contract or suspend any further deliveries under the Contract without any liability to the Customer, and if the Goods have been delivered but not paid for the price shall become immediately due and payable notwithstanding any previous agreement or arrangement to the contrary.
11. Waiver
