Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in these Conditions, Seller shall not be under any obligation to fix or replace the Goods, or refund the price of such Goods, unless (i) it was notified of the defect in the quality or condition of the Goods or their failure to meet their specification, and (ii) it had the opportunity to inspect the Goods within a reasonable time after it was notified of the defect/non-conformity of the Goods. Except in respect of death or personal injury caused by the Seller’s gross negligence, the Seller shall not be liable to the Buyer by reason of any representation (unless fraudulent), or any implied warranty, condition or other term, or any duty at common law, or under the express terms of the Contract, for loss of profit or for any indirect, special or consequential loss or damage, costs, expenses or other claims for compensation whatsoever (whether caused by the negligence of the Seller, its employees or agents or otherwise) which arise out of or in connection with the supply of the Goods.
9.3 Any claim (including any relating to the quality of the Goods) by Buyer arising out of this Contract shall be provided to Seller by written notice setting forth fully the facts on which it is based immediately after the date when the facts were discovered or reasonably should have been discovered, but in any event no later than 90 days after the date the Goods were delivered by Seller.
