charges.

3. COST:

3.1. You must pay the Deposit on signing this Agreement if asked. The Deposit (or

including the StoreProtect Charges if You have opted for StoreProtect. We will

take the first payment on acceptance of Your order and will take subsequent

payments in advance on the invoice date for each Storage Period or other date

agreed with You (“Due Date”). It is Your responsibility to see that payment is

made directly to Us on time and in full throughout the Storage Period. We do not

normally bill for fees but will issue an electronic invoice following payment.

Storage Costs will not be credited to Your account unless You identify the

payment clearly and as directed by Us.If You fail to identify a payment, We

reserve the right to take steps to enforce the Agreement (including the sale of

Goods as set out under Conditions 4.1 to 4.5) due to Your failure to pay

Storage Fees. We shall have no liability to You as a result of taking such action

and You agree to fully indemnify Us for any costs, including those outlined in (c),

account and We may at Our sole discretion apply any payment made by You or

on Your behalf on this Agreement against the oldest amount due from You to Us

Costs due to Us and We retain Your part payment, this will not affect Our ability

to take any action against You or to exercise any rights We have under this

Agreement in respect of the Storage Costs which remain outstanding from You.

The time period from which We may take such action will still start from the Due

Date when the original Storage Costs were due and the Due Date will not be

extended as a result of Your part payment.

4. DEFAULT – RIGHT TO SELL OR DISPOSE OF GOODS:

4.1. We take the issue of prompt payment seriously and We shall have a

general and particular right of lien, which is a right to seize and sell or otherwise

dispose of some or all of Your Goods as security for Your obligation to make

payments under this Agreement. If any sum owing to Us and other fees related

to this Agreement are not paid when due (“Debt”), You authorise Us without

further notice to: (a) refuse You and Your Agents access to the Goods, the Unit

and the Facility and to overlock the Unit until the Debt has been paid in full; (b)

enter the Unit and inspect and/or remove the Goods to another Unit or site and

to charge You for all reasonable costs of doing so on any number of occasions;

and (c) apply the Deposit against the Debt and, if insufficient to clear it in full,

hold onto and/or ultimately sell or dispose of some or all of the Goods in

accordance with Conditions 4.3 to 4.5. You acknowledge that (a) We shall be

entitled to continue to charge Storage Fees from the date the Debt becomes due

until payment is made in full or the Goods are sold or disposed of; (b) We will sell

the Goods as if We were the owner and will pass all rights of ownership in the

Goods to the buyer; and (c) if You do not pay fees on the Due Date, the value of

any discounts and special offers (including periods of free storage) which You

have received will be payable by You in full.

4.2. If on expiry or termination of this Agreement, for any reason, You fail

to remove all Goods from the Unit, We are authorised to treat the Goods as

abandoned and may sell or dispose of all Goods by any means in accordance

with Conditions 4.3 to 4.5. You are liable for Storage Costs for the period from

abandonment to the sale or disposal of the Goods together with any costs of

disposal incurred, which shall be added to the, or treated as a, Debt.

4.3. Before We sell or dispose of the Goods, We will give You notice in

writing directing You to pay (if You are in default) or collect the Goods (if they are

treated as abandoned). This notice will be sent by registered or recorded

delivery to the postal address last notified by You to Us in writing and by email

and/or by direct message on social media. If no address within the United

Kingdom has been provided, We will use any land or email address or social

media details We hold for You and any Alternative Contact Person (“ACP” as

stated on the Self Storage Agreement). If You fail to pay the Debt and/or collect

the Goods (as appropriate) We will access the Unit and begin the process to sell

or dispose of the Goods. You consent to and authorise the sale or disposal of all

Goods without further notice regardless of their nature, content or value. We will

sell the Goods for the best price reasonably available in the open market, taking

into account the costs of sale. We may also require payment of default action

costs, including any costs associated with accessing the Unit and disposal or

sale of the Goods, which shall be added to the or treated as a Debt.

4.4. Sale proceeds will be applied first against the cost of removal and

sale of Goods and second to pay the Debt. If sale proceeds do not discharge all

of these costs and the Debt, You must pay Us the balance within 7 days of a

written demand from Us. We may take action to recover the balance and any

legal and administration costs incurred in doing so. If sale proceeds exceed the

amount due from You, We will attempt to return the excess funds to you. If this

is not reasonably possible, We will hold the balance for You but no interest will

be payable on it.

4.5. If, in Our opinion and entirely at Our discretion, the Goods are either

not saleable, fail to sell when offered for sale, or are not of sufficient value to

warrant the expense of attempting to sell, You authorise Us to treat the Goods as

abandoned and We may dispose of all Goods by any means at Your cost. We

may dispose of the Goods at Our discretion in the event that (a) Goods are

damaged due to fire, flood or other event that has rendered them, in Our

reasonable opinion, severely damaged, of no commercial value, or dangerous to

persons or property, or (b) Goods may contain personal data belonging to You or

others. We do not need Your prior approval to take this action but will send

written notice to You within 7 days of assessing damaged Goods.

outside Your Unit at any time shall be treated as abandoned and may at Our

discretion be moved, sold or disposed of immediately with no liability to Us.

parties must first try to settle any dispute in connection with this Agreement by

mediation. Such mediation is to be conducted by a mediator who is independent

of the parties and appointed by agreement of the parties. The parties agree that,

proceedings against the other unless it has first offered to submit the dispute to

mediation and mediation has not commenced within a reasonable period of time
