Post CT shall have the right to use the Client’s name for Post CT publicity and marketing purposes limited in reference to the Services supplied by Post CT.
  1. RIGHT TO REFUSE PERFORMANCE

Without placing any obligation on Post CT to monitor such materials, Post CT may, without liability, refuse or cease to perform the Services if Post CT, in its sole discretion:

    1. deems an Element to be unlawful, infringing, pornographic or degrading or otherwise objectionable, defamatory, libellous, or offensive with respect to applicable standards, customs, or practices;

    1. deems that the Client is in material breach of any of these Terms and Conditions; or
    1. deems that the Client is unable to pay its debts as and when they become due.
  1. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
    1. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN, (A) POST CT GIVES NO WARRANTY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED AS TO MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, DESCRIPTION, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, QUALITY OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO THE DEVELOPMENT, PRINTING, DUBBING, TRANSFERRING, AND PROCESSING OF THE ELEMENT OR ANY OTHER SERVICES PROVIDED BY POST CT; AND (B) POST CT MAKES NO WARRANTY AND ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE CHARACTER OR QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL, FILM PROCESSING, DUBBING, LOSS OF QUALITY ATTRIBUTABLE TO ANY PROCESS CARRIED OUT DURING THE PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES, OR SERVICES PROVIDED BY IT HEREUNDER. In addition, Post CT makes no representation, warranty or covenant with respect to (i) the Elements or the exploitation of the Deliverables, (ii) claims resulting from Post CT’s compliance with the direction or artistic and/or technical specifications of the Client, or (iii) any third party’s IP Rights relating to disc structure, disc or content format (including the codecs/output formats), content protection (including DRM, Macrovision or watermarking), disc or content replication, the reading or playback of discs or content by playback machines/software, disc or content-related connectivity or disc manufacturing, including, but not limited to, anything required or described in standards or format guidelines for disc or content formats with which the Deliverables are intended to be used.
    1. The Elements and Deliverables are received, processed and stored solely at the risk of the Client. Post CT reserves the right to assign or sub-contract all or any part of the work ordered. Post CT may hold Elements at any place(s) that Post CT deems appropriate, there being no promise or representation, expressed or implied, that the Elements and Deliverables will be retained or stored at any particular location or under particular conditions.
    1. In the event that the Elements are lost, destroyed or damaged for any reason, including through negligence of Post CT, its employees, sub-contractors or agents, Post CT’s liability shall be limited to the replacement of unexposed/unrecorded raw stock. If such Elements contain time coding, the Client agrees to test such time coding for accuracy before relying on such time coding, the Client agrees to notify Post CT of any inaccuracies in such time coding, and Post CT agrees to correct such inaccuracies at the Client’s expense. Post CT’s obligation shall be limited to correcting any such inaccuracies in time coding, and Post CT shall not be liable for any loss, injury, or damage, direct, indirect or consequential, that may be incurred as a result of any inaccuracies in any time coding.
    1. If any Deliverable is defective or is erroneously labelled or shipped or if non-conforming Services or materials are furnished by Post CT, Post CT’s liability therefore shall be limited to replacement or repair of such defective Deliverable (at the option of Post CT), and the correction of such errors in shipment or labelling or the providing of conforming Post CT Services or material at Post CT’s expense; provided that the defective Deliverable is returned and written notice of such imperfection or error in labelling or shipment is received by Post CT within 90 (ninety) days after shipment.
    1. Post CT shall use reasonable efforts to deliver the Deliverables in accordance with delivery dates, but Post CT is not liable for any loss or damages caused by Post CT’s failure to meet any delivery date or times, or failure to give notice of delay.
    1. Limitations for Absence of Data Backups
      1. On-Set Back-ups for Dailies Services. For “dailies” services provided by Post CT, best practices require that the Client adhere to an “on-set” back-up solution, whereby original camera and sound Elements are safely copied to an “on-set back-up” before such Elements leave the production location. In the event that the Client elects not to implement any type of on-set back up for a project, (a) Client accepts all risks associated with the resulting lack of data redundancy, and (b) in the event any data is degraded or corrupt upon delivery to Post CT, then (x) Client shall be solely responsible for recovery of any data contained on such Elements, (y) Post CT’s obligation shall be limited to returning the Elements to the Client (such that the Client, at its sole cost, may attempt data recovery), and (z) Post CT shall not be liable for any loss, injury, or damage, direct, indirect or consequential, that may be incurred as a result of such degradation of corruption of the Elements.
      1. Full Back-ups for Finishing Services. For creative post production “finishing” services provided by Post CT, best practices require that the Client utilise and maintain, during the duration of the Post CT’s services, a full data back-up, either on spinning disk or tape (“Full Back-up”). In the event that the Client (a) declines to purchase a Full Back-up service from Post CT, (b) elects to provide its own Full Back-up solution (separate and apart from the service offered by Post CT), or (c) elects not to implement any type of Full Back-up in the project workflow, then (x) the Client accepts all risks associated with the resulting lack of data redundancy, and (y) Post CT shall not be liable for any loss, injury, or damage, direct, indirect or consequential, that may be incurred due to any resulting loss of data.
    1. Post CT’s total liability for any and all loss or damage arising out of or in connection with any contract for Services shall be limited to the total sums paid by the Client to Post CT under such contract. IN NO EVENT AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL POST CT BE LIABLE TO ANY PARTY FOR ANY LOST PROFITS OR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES RESULTING FROM: (a) ANY DEFECTIVE ELEMENT, DELIVERABLES, SERVICES, PRODUCTS OR EQUIPMENT; OR (b) DAMAGES TO, OR DESTRUCTION OF ELEMENTS OR DELIVERABLE BY POST CT, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH DAMAGES ARE CAUSED BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF POST CT, ITS EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR SUB-CONTRACTORS; OR (c) ANY NEGLIGENCE OR BREACH OF DUTY (CONTRACTUAL OR OTHERWISE) BY POST CT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPROPER STORAGE OR RETENTION, PROCESSING, PACKING, DELAY IN DELIVERY OR SHIPMENT, OR ERRORS IN SHIPMENT, OR LABELING.
  1. FORCE MAJEURE

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Post CT shall not be liable for any delay or loss due to delays or failures in performance caused directly or indirectly by the Element; acts of God; Client, civil or military authorities; terrorism; civil unrest; fires; floods; epidemics; quarantine restrictions; wars; riots; strikes; lock outs; labour difficulties; failures of equipment or transportation; whole or partial satellite malfunctions, uplink failures, internet outages, communications line failures or power failures; inability to obtain, or the failure of others to deliver, Element, machinery, equipment or qualified personnel; or any other cause beyond Post CT’s reasonable control. In the event of a delay, the delivery or shipping date, as appropriate, shall be deemed extended for a period equal to the delay.

  1. PROPRIETARY RIGHTS
    1. Client Ownership. As between Client and Post CT and subject to these Terms and Conditions, Client owns and shall retain all right, title and interest, including, without limitation, all IP Rights, in and to (i) the Elements, and (ii) upon full payment of the Services, the Deliverables, except for the Methods used therein for which Client has a license as set forth below (“Client IP”).
    1. Post CT Ownership. As between Client and Post CT, Post CT owns and shall retain all right, title, and interest, including, without limitation, IP Rights in and to the Methods (“Post CT IP”). No portion of such Post CT IP will be deemed a “work for hire” and Post CT will not be restricted in any way with respect thereto. The Client agrees that: (i) Post CT shall have the right to use the Post CT IP in performing services for third parties and (ii) the deliverables rendered as a result of such services may be substantially similar to the Deliverables, provided that Post CT does not use any Client IP; (iii) the Post CT IP is Post CT’s trade secrets; and (iv) Post CT will not be prohibited or restricted at any time by the Client from utilising any skills or knowledge of a general nature acquired during the course of providing the Services, not uniquely applicable to the Client.

    1. Each party hereby expressly reserves all rights in and to its IP Rights, and the other party shall not acquire any such rights, whether by virtue of these Terms and Conditions, operation of law, estoppel, or otherwise.

  1. CONFIDENTIALITY
    1. Any information relating to either party and coming into the possession of the other party as a result operation of these Terms and Conditions or any Order shall be treated as confidential and shall not be disclosed to any person other than employees (or in the case of Post CT, it’s sub-contractors, if applicable) of such other party requiring such information as pursuant to these Terms and Conditions or any order without the prior written approval of the party to whom it relates (such approval not to unreasonably withheld or delayed).
    1. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions shall be construed to impose a confidentiality obligation in respect of any matter which is at the time of disclosure known to be in the public domain, unless through the act of omission on the part of the non-disclosing party or which is required to be disclosed by any applicable law, court order or any governmental or regulatory authority.
  1. TERMINATION
    1. Termination of these Terms and Conditions, including termination due to the Client’s  failure to comply with its obligations set out in these Terms and Conditions of which Post CT has given the Client 7 (seven) days’ notice to remedy, does not relieve the Client of its responsibilities to pay any amounts due to Post CT under these Terms and Conditions.
    1. Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies which Post CT may have, Post CT may cancel any Order and/or terminate the Order (whether the Services have been completed or not) with immediate effect and without liability to the Client if:
      1. any of the events contemplated in clause 11 above occur;
      2. the Client is in breach of any of the terms of the Order;
      3. where applicable, the Client goes into voluntary or compulsory liquidation/sequestration (whether provisional or final) or becomes insolvent or calls a meeting of its creditors or enters into any arrangement or compromise or composition with its creditors, or if any proceedings should be commenced for placing the Client in business rescue, whether, in any case, under the Companies Act, 2008 or the Insolvency Act, 1936 or otherwise; or
      4. the Client suspends or ceases, or threatens to suspend or cease all or a major part of its business.
    1. If any Order is cancelled and/or the Order is terminated by Post CT in the circumstances set out in clause 16.2, then, without prejudice to Post CT’s other rights and remedies available at law or otherwise, Post CT may charge the client a cancellation fee in accordance with clause 5.9 above.
    1. Termination of these Terms and Conditions shall operate without prejudice to Post CT’s rights, defences and limitations of liability provided under these Terms and Conditions, which rights, defences and limitations of liability shall survive termination of these Terms and Conditions.
  1. NON WAIVER

No action of either party, other than express written waiver, may be construed as a waiver of any provision of these Terms and Conditions. A delay on the part of either party in the exercise of its rights or remedies will not operate as a waiver of such rights or remedies, and a single or partial exercise by either party of any such rights or remedies will not preclude other or further exercise of that right or remedy. A waiver of a right or remedy on any one occasion will not be construed as a bar to or waiver of rights or remedies on any other occasion.

  1. ASSIGNMENT AND SUB-CONTRACTING
    1. Post CT may engage any person, firm or company as its sub-contractor to perform any of its obligations under these Terms and Conditions or any Order, but shall not be released from any liability therefor.
    1. Each contract in terms of any Order between Post CT and the Client is personal to the Client who may not assign or transfer it without the prior written consent of Post CT.
  1. SEVERABILITY

Where any provision of these Terms and Conditions is found to be inconsistent with any applicable laws, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be severed from these Terms and Conditions and shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of these Terms and Conditions.
