| In essence,
the Master Lease agreement determines a particular set of terms and
conditions which are negotiated with you at the outset - very similar
to the conditions on the reverse of our current documentation. As and
when you wish to order a piece of equipment, you will complete the
tailor made order form which gives reference to the Master Lease agreement
and details of the equipment with their agreed costs. This may be facilitated
on your own purchase orders. The Master Lease
agreement makes the process of ordering equipment far more convenient
and will shorten the purchasing cycle. For
a guideline the Master Lease is applicable to those customers who are
interested in acquiring approximately £50,000 - £1,000,000
worth of equipment, and also warrants this amount of credit. I have
summarised below the main points of the Master Lease agreement, an
example of which is attached: Firstly the
terms of the agreement are pre-negotiated with you. The details that
are confirmed at this stage and form part of the agreement include: -
An Order Form (see schedule A) which details all the information that
must be included to instigate a separate lease for each order. -
Details of all types of equipment available and the payments in respect
of their rental and any maintenance (schedule to be attached to Master
Lease agreement). - The Terms & Conditions
of Hire are specified at this point and the Order Form gives reference
to the Master Lease agreement. - Each time
a purchase unit of your company wishes to lease as an additional piece
of equipment, an order form is completed and signed, and a separate
lease will be instigated in the normal way. This includes the ability
to upgrade equipment in the usual way and add to existing equipment
on a Co-terminus basis. - The benefits of convenience
of order, ease of supply and the assurance of using an approved computer
supplier will produce time and cost savings for you.
