Conditions (and, where applicable, any other terms and conditions pursuant to
Clause 1.3 and/or Clause 1.4) to the exclusion of any other terms and conditions
not accepted in writing by an Authorised Representative of CL, including without
limit any terms on or referred to in any Customer purchase order. In the case of
orders placed by Electronic Means which refer to any terms and conditions of the
Customer CL's automatic taking on to its system of such order shall amount to a
rejection of the Customer's terms and conditions and an offer to supply the
Products ordered on the basis of these Conditions. No variation to these
Conditions shall be binding unless agreed by letter signed by an Authorised
Representative of CL. It is the Customer's responsibility to be aware of the
Conditions as current from time to time but CL will use best efforts to notify
Customer of any material changes to the Conditions before they become
applicable. In addition to any acceptance of these Conditions by signing CL's
account application form, the Customer's acceptance of these Conditions shall
also be made (in respect of the first Contract and all subsequent Contracts)
either by (1) Customer providing a purchase order to CL or (2) Customer
accepting Products or Services from CL, whichever occurs first.
2.2 No employee or agent of CL other than an Authorised Representative
has any authority to make any representation at all concerning Products or
Services and an Authorised Representative has no authority to make such
representation other than by letter (an "authorised representation") and
accordingly Customer agrees that in entering into any Contract it does not rely
on any unauthorised representation and Customer agrees it shall have no remedy
in respect of any unauthorised representation (unless made fraudulently) .
3. CUSTOMER IDENTIFICATION
3.1 In placing an order including by Electronic Means Customer may
utilise one or a combination of account name, account number and other forms of
identification including password or other code issued to Customer (together and
individually "Customer's Identification" or "Customer Identification").
3.2 It is the Customer's responsibility to keep the Customer's
Identification confidential. Customer has the sole responsibility for its
Customer Identification. Customer shall immediately inform CL in case of loss of
password or in case of any abuse or attempted abuse of Customer password or
other Customer Identification. Customer agrees that Customer is entirely
responsible for use of Customer's Identification and that it is Customer's
responsibility to have in place security measures and procedures to ensure use
of its Customer Identification only by authorised personnel for authorised
purposes.
3.3 Customer agrees that CL is entitled to rely absolutely on any orders
placed on CL which have utilised Customer's Identification and to deliver as
directed by such orders and to invoice and be paid in respect of such orders.
3.4 Customer agrees that any order placed on CL including by Electronic
Means mentioning or utilising Customer's Identification is a valid and binding
purchase order.

nonetheless entitled to rely on data transmitted in the form it is received at

4. CABLESERVE INFORMATION
4.1 All Product pricing, description, availability and related
information ("Information") provided by CL, in any form, is the property of CL
or its suppliers. CL hereby grants Customer a limited, non-exclusive,
non-transferable license to use the Information for its internal use only for
the purpose of Customer's purchases and sales of Products sold by CL to it. CL
shall be entitled to stop the provision of Information at any time without
notice. Customer agrees to hold in confidence and not to directly or indirectly
use, reveal, report, publish, disclose or transfer to any other person or entity
any of the Information or utilise the Information for any purpose except as
permitted herein. CL makes no warranty, either express or implied on the
Information or its accuracy. All Information is provided to Customer "as is." If
CL provides Information to Customer by Electronic Means, Customer agrees to
update such Information regularly to ensure its accuracy. Customer agrees to
hold in confidence and not to directly or indirectly use, reveal, report,
publish, disclose or transfer to any other person or entity any of the
Information or utilise the Information for any purpose except as permitted
herein. Specifically but without limitation Customer is not entitled to utilise
Information for any purpose other than in the normal course of business of a
reseller and is not entitled to use, reproduce or display the Information in any
way, which in CL's opinion; (1) would enable it to be identified as information
obtained from CL (2) would enable comparison of the Information with other
suppliers' information relating to products or (3) could be damaging to CL's
business interests.
4.2 CL agrees to hold in confidence and not to directly or indirectly
use, reveal, report, publish, disclose or transfer to any other person or entity
any Customer sensitive information or utilise such information for any purpose
if Customer has notified CL in writing that it is confidential.

CL's discretion and conditions.

cancellation of a Contract which has been accepted by CL. If CL agrees to accept

by an Authorised Representative of CL.
5.4 Notwithstanding any other terms of these Conditions it is agreed that
the provision or display of Product pricing and other Information (as defined in
Clause 4.1) by CL to Customer does not amount to an offer by CL to sell such
Product at that price or on any other terms. Supply of such Information is only
an invitation to treat. An order by the Customer for Product or Services shall
be the offer.
5.5 In the case of orders placed by Electronic Means only,
notwithstanding any acceptance by CL of any offer for any Product, if there has
been a material or obvious pricing error by CL, CL shall be entitled within 30
days of its acceptance of such offer to either invoice the Customer for the
Customer's true list price (not exceeding the prevailing market price at
wholesale level) of the Product at the date of order or, if the Customer shall
prefer, collect the Product at CL's expense and credit the Customer for any
charges (e.g. price and freight) invoiced by CL.
5.6 Orders for direct shipment to Customer's customers or Special Order
Products may require prepayment and will be subject to additional fees.
