19. Licences and Consents

If a licence or consent of any third party (including without limitation any governmental or other authority) is required in connection with the Customer’s purchase or use of the Products or Services, the Customer shall obtain the licence or consent at its own expense and produce evidence of it to the Supplier on demand. Failure to obtain any licence or consent does not entitle the Customer to withhold or delay payment of the Price. Any additional expenses or charges incurred by the Supplier resulting from such failure shall be paid by the Customer.

20. Export Regulation

20.1. The Products are subject to foreign trade restrictions, including dual-use trade controls. Both parties will comply with all applicable Sanction and Trade Control Laws in connection with these GTC. “Sanctions and Trade Control Laws” include any applicable laws, regulations, administrative or regulatory decisions or guidelines (including any future amendments to these provisions), or any other laws, regulations, administrative or regulatory decisions, or guidelines adopted, maintained, or enforced by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, the United Nations Security Council, the European Union or other relevant sanctions authority where the parties operate (“Sanctions Agency”) on or after the date of the Order Confirmation that sanction, prohibit or restrict certain activities including, but not limited to: (i) import, export, re-export, transfer, or trans-shipment of goods, services, technology, or software; or (ii) financing of, investment in, or direct or indirect transactions or dealings with certain countries, territories, regions, governments, projects, or specifically designated persons or entities (collectively, “Trade Control Laws”).

20.2. Both parties confirm that they have not violated, shall not violate, and shall not cause the other party to violate, any applicable Trade Control Laws. Each party represents and warrants that, to the best of its knowledge, at the date of the Order Confirmation neither it, nor any of their respective directors or officers are a Restricted Person. Each party agrees that it shall promptly notify the other party if it becomes a Restricted Person. “Restricted Person” means a person that is, directly or indirectly owned or controlled by, or acting on behalf of, one or more restricted persons on any list (including any future amendments to such list) published by a Sanctions Agency.

20.3. If, as a result of (i) Trade Control Laws are issued or amended after the date of the Order Confirmation, (ii) the Customer or the end-user is/becomes a Restricted Person, or (iii) any necessary export license or authorization from a Sanctions Agency is not granted, the performance by Supplier or by any affiliates becomes illegal or impracticable, Supplier shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, give written notice to the Customer of its inability to perform or fulfil such obligations. Supplier shall be entitled to either immediately suspend the performance of the affected obligation under the Order Confirmation until such time as Supplier may lawfully discharge such obligation or unilaterally terminate the Contract in whole or in part from the date specified in the said written notice or from any subsequent date thereafter. Supplier will not be liable to the Customer for any costs, expenses or damages associated with such suspension or termination of the Contract.

20.4. The Supplier and Customer undertake to obtain all the necessary licenses and/or permits from the competent authorities for the import or export of Products. In particular, Products that are subject to the U.S. Export Administration Regulations (“EAR”) must not be exported without obtaining the valid licenses/authorizations of the competent US authorities, including non-US items with controlled US content above the permitted de-minimis level and non-US items with controlled US content for which there is no de-minimis level.

20.5. The Customer represents and warrants that it will not directly or indirectly sell, export, re-export, release, transmit or otherwise transfer any Products received from Suppler to any third party or country in violation of Trade Control Laws.

20.6. If the Customer notices that it has acted in infringement of applicable Trade Control Laws in connection with the Contract, Customer must notify Supplier thereof within 14 days.

Customer will be liable for any costs, expenses or damages associated with such termination of the Contract.

22. General

22.1. Entire Agreement. The Quotation (if accepted by the Customer) or the Order (if accepted by the Supplier) together with these GTC constitu¬te the entire agreement between the par-ties in relation to its subject matter.

22.2. Compliance. Each party shall comply with all applicable laws including, but not limited to applicable export control laws. Customer shall not export or re-export any Products without the appropriate licenses, and Customer shall defend, indemnify, and hold the Supplier and all of its suppliers harmless from any claims arising out of Customer’s violation of applicable export control laws.

22.3. Written Form. Any notices and/or any modifications of, or amendments to, the Contract shall be invalid, unless (i) notices are in writing and sent by email or by registered mail, postage prepaid; and (ii) modifications and amendments are in writing and signed by duly authorised officers of both parties. Representations made by sales or technical personnel of the Supplier shall have no legal effect, unless confirmed by a duly authorised officer of the Supplier in writing. Furthermore, notices to the Supplier are invalid, unless and until received at the registered office or principal place of business or such other address specified by the Supplier to Customer in writing as the appropriate address for notices.

22.4. No Waiver. The failure or delay of either party to exercise or enforce any right or claim does not constitute a waiver of such right or claim and shall in no way affect that party’s right to later enforce or exercise it, unless such party issues an express written waiver, signed by a duly authorised representative. No single or partial exercise of a right or remedy provided by these GTC or by law by a party prevents further exercise of the right or remedy or the exercise of another right or remedy.

22.5. Assignment. Customer may not assign any of its rights under the Contract unless the Supplier has given its prior written consent. Any warranties extended by the Supplier (i) are non-transferable and for Customer’s benefit only; and (ii) shall expire effective immediately if Customer resells or otherwise transfers the warranted Product or Services to any third party. The Supplier has the right at any time to assign all or any of its rights under the Contract or sub-contract all or any of its obligations for the sale of the Products and/or Services to any other associated or connected company or subsidiary or holding company as it may from time to time decide without giving notice of the same to the Customer.

22.6. Severability. If and to the extent any provision of the Contract in writing is held illegal, invalid, or unenforceable in whole or in part under applicable law, such provision or such portion thereof shall be ineffective as to the jurisdiction in which it is illegal, invalid, or unenforceable to the extent of its illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability and shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law so as to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties. The illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability of such provision in that jurisdiction shall not in any way affect the legality, validity, or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction or of any other provision in any jurisdiction.

22.7. Governing Law and Jurisdiction. These GTC shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Singapore law (excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods). Any dispute arising out of or in connection with these GTC, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination, shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration in Singapore in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (“SIAC”) for the time being in force, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Section. The Tribunal shall consist of a sole arbitrator, who shall be appointed by the Chairman of the SIAC. The language of the arbitration shall be English. The award of the arbitrator shalt be final and binding upon the Parties.
