Any times or dates given for completion or delivery of goods shall be binding on RCS, insofar as RCS undertake to carry out additional work for the purchaser to the value of the print element of any goods not supplied on time. Such liability shall not extend to delays beyond the control of RCS including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing defects in files or omissions of information delays in approval of proofs and non-performance of carriers.

The liability of RCS to the purchaser for any loss or damage of whatsoever nature and howsoever caused shall be limited to and in no circumstances exceed the price of the goods.
If the purchaser shall be in breach of any of their obligations under the contract RCS may (without prejudice to RCSs rights subsequently to determine the contract for the same cause should it so decide) suspend further deliveries of goods without notice until any defaults by the purchaser are remedied.
No statement, description, information, warranty or recommendation contained in any catalogue, price list, advertisement or communication or made verbally by any of the agents or employees of RCS shall be construed to enlarge, vary or override in any way these conditions.
Any concessions made or latitude allowed by RCS to the purchaser shall not affect the strict rights of RCS under the contract. If in any particular case any of these conditions shall be held to be invalid or shall not apply to the contract the other conditions shall continue in full force and effect.
Upon sight of artwork and at its sole discretion RCS reserve the right to decline to print any item it deems to be inappropriate. Any payments made for work rejected by reason of this clause will be refunded in full.
The contract shall in all respects be governed by English law and shall be deemed to have been made in England and the purchaser and RCS agree to submit to nonexclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.
