The Customer must pay all undisputed amounts in accordance with Clause 6.2 unless the disputed amount is less than 5% of the total invoice amount in which case the total invoice amount shall be due and payable by the due date. Disputes shall be resolved promptly and the resolved amount, if any, payable within fourteen (14) Business Days after resolution. The late payment fee will accrue from the due date on subsequent payments of amounts withheld or credits on overpayments refunded.

6.5 Should the Customer initiate any change to the agreed billing arrangements (whether by assignment or otherwise) for the Products and/or Services, and such change results in additional Tax and/or withholding tax costs to Tyneside CCTV and/or its Affiliates that they are unable to fully recover (including as a result of any impact with respect to how Tyneside CCTV is able to bill for the Products and Services due to regulatory requirements), Tyneside CCTV reserves the right to modify the Charges for such Products and Services accordingly, and the Customer agrees to bear those additional costs.

This clause creates an obligation that Third Party Suppliers may enforce, whether as a defence or otherwise. To the extent permitted by law, the Customer shall indemnify Tyneside CCTV against any liabilities or costs suffered or incurred by Tyneside CCTV in connection with a claim (whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), statute or otherwise) against a Third Party Supplier by the Customer or any User in connection with use of the Services. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations of liability in Clause 13 shall not apply to such indemnity.

8.1 The Customer is responsible for the provision, installation, configuration, monitoring and maintenance of any Customer Equipment connected to the Service or used in connection with a Product. The Customer shall ensure that any the Customer Equipment connected to or used with the Product and/or Service is connected and used in accordance with any instructions and safety and security procedures applicable to the use of that Customer Equipment.

8.2 The Customer shall ensure that any Customer Equipment attached (directly or indirectly) to the Product and/or Service by the Customer is technically compatible with the Service and approved for that purpose under any applicable law or regulation. Tyneside CCTV does not make any commitment with respect to the interoperability between the Product and/or Service and Customer Equipment. In the case of Products sold for the purpose of the Customer’s use with the Service, the Customer may rely upon Tyneside CCTV’s representations as to such compatibility and compliance, as of the date of provision.
