Customer hereby agrees that it will be bound by these Terms and be responsible for orders placed on its behalf by an event coordinator, planner, representative, or agent of Customer, for which such Customer is identified on the Contract, as if such Customer placed such order directly with Party Rental Ltd.

Any and all terms, conditions, or provisions specified in any quotation or otherwise (whether oral, typed, written, or printed) that in any way change, modify, amplify, differ from, or add to these Terms or Party Rental Ltd.’s Contract, are null and void and of no effect, even if (i) Party Rental Ltd. does not expressly object to such terms, conditions, or provisions, or (ii) such terms, conditions, or provisions are specified subsequent to such other documents. Customer hereby agrees that no terms additional to or deviating from these Terms shall become part of the Contract unless and until written acceptance of such additional or deviating terms, signed by an authorized officer of Party Rental Ltd., has been issued to Customer. Customer’s acceptance of any Goods supplied by, or on behalf of, Party Rental Ltd. shall, without limitation, also constitute acceptance of these Terms.

4. Acceptance of Goods, Delivery, and Transportation
