Terms and Conditions of Service

These contractual conditions apply to the Services provided by VoxGroup trading as

VoxLogistics. These Trading Conditions contain exclusions of liability and indemnities in

favour of VoxGroup trading as VoxLogistics. You should read these Trading Conditions

carefully.

While you should read the whole document, we draw your attention to the following clauses:

Subcontracting – We may subcontract the performance of the services and our subcontractors will

have the benefit of these terms and conditions. When subcontracting we will select the liability level

that produces the lowest rates.

Liability Exclusions – Carriage of Goods –In respect of international carriage of goods, under

clause 10 liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted under international conventions. It is

likely that if goods are damaged, the liability limits will not fully cover the loss. It is strongly

recommended that you obtain insurance to cover loss or damage to the goods.

Liability Exclusions – General – Clause 10 contains a number of clauses that limit our liability

more generally in respect of the services.

Time limit for claims – Clauses 10.11 – 10.12 set out strict time limits on making claims against us.

You should notify us immediately if you wish to make a claim against us.

Indemnities – Clause 11 sets out a number of instances where you are required to pay us for loss

or damage that we incur in providing the services. Sometimes these costs will not be your fault, such

as if a Government inspection delays the release of the goods and storage charges are incurred.

Lien – Clause 13 gives us the right to hold your goods and sell them if you do not pay our fees.

Security Interest – Under clause 14 you grant us a registerable security interest in the goods for

payment of all amounts you owe us under this contract.

Fee increases – Under clause 6 we can increase our fees if the amount charged by subcontractors

or other third parties changes and we did not know of, or could not have prevented, that cost

increase.

Disposal of goods – Clause 15 sets out where we can dispose of uncollected goods. In most

instances we have to notify you before disposing of any goods.

included in the Quote or were not of a nature which the Customer would have

expected to be incurred.

11.5 The indemnities in this clause 11 continue whether or not the Goods are pillaged,

constitute a waiver of any rights held by the Customer.

or the transfer of the Goods to a Subcontractor. The Company is entitled to retain the

proceeds of sale of the Goods in respect of all sums due and owing from the Customer.

14.1 Terms used in clause 14 that are defined in the PPSA have the same meaning as in the

PPSA.

14.2 Without limitation to other rights of the Company, from the time the Goods are in the
