(c) will indemnify the Seller against any claim arising from its use.

8.4 The Seller may terminate such bailment at any time by giving written notice to the Buyer.

9.2 If possession of the Goods is transferred to the Buyer in the circumstances described in clause 8 of these Terms and Conditions and the Seller has not received full payment for the Goods, the Buyer grants to the Seller at the time the Buyer takes possession, a purchase money security interest (“PMSI”) (pursuant to the PPSA) in the Goods and any proceeds from the Goods.

9.3 The Seller will register a financing statement under the PPSA for its PMSI and the Buyer agrees to execute any documents, provide all necessary information and do anything else required to ensure the Seller obtains and maintains a perfected security interest as that term is defined by the PPSA, which will have priority over all other security interests in the Goods.

9.4 The Buyer agrees to pay all costs and expenses incurred by the Seller in connection with the registration of the Seller’s security interest and any enforcement or attempted enforcement and removal of that interest, or preservation of any right or interest under these Terms and Conditions or otherwise conferred on the Seller by the PPSA.

11.2 The Seller warrants that all of its employees, agents and contractors involved in the performance of the Services and/or Goods will adhere to the Buyer’s workplace health and safety policies and procedures as advised to the Seller from time to time. However, the Buyer indemnifies the Seller and its employees, agents and contractors from any death, personal injury or loss suffered (consequential and non-consequential) as a result of any breach of the Buyer’s obligations under clause 11.1 or any negligent act by any of the Buyer’s employees, agents or contractors.

11.3 The Buyer must immediately inform the Seller of any incident arising out of the performance of the Services or the performance of the Goods which is required to be notified to an authority under applicable workplace health and safety legislation.
