What Renwick does

1. Ask

   Can the Buyer terminate the Supply Agreement because of repeated late deliveries?

   Yes. Three or more late deliveries in any six-month period is a material breach under clause 14.3cl. 14.3, and clause 14.2 allows termination by written notice if the Supplier fails to remedy it within 30 days of a notice requiring itcl. 14.2. Serve the remedy notice first.

   Ask

   A straight answer to a legal question, with its sources checked.

2. Research memo

   Issue

   Whether the Buyer may both apply the 2% weekly deductions under clause 6.3 and terminate for material breach under clauses 14.2 and 14.3.

   Short answer

   Yes. The two remedies address different things, and nothing in the Agreement makes one an alternative to the other.

   Analysis

   Clause 6.3 compensates past delays, capped at 10% of the late goods; clauses 14.2 and 14.3 end the relationship going forward if the breach is not remedied within 30 days.

   Conclusion

   Deduct up to 10% on the late consignments and, in parallel, serve a 30-day remedy notice.

5. Brief a case

   Hadley v Baxendale (1854) 9 Exch 341

   Facts

   A mill's broken crankshaft was sent by carrier to engineers as the pattern for a new one; the carrier delayed it and the mill stood idle.

   Issue

   Whether the carrier was liable for the profits the mill lost during the delay.

   Holding

   No. The lost profits were too remote: the carrier had not been told the mill would stop without the shaft.

   Principle

   Damages cover losses arising naturally from the breach, or losses both parties could reasonably have contemplated when they made the contract.
