ALTERATION TO STANDARD TERMS Clause Samples
The 'Alteration to Standard Terms' clause defines the process by which the standard terms of an agreement may be modified or amended. Typically, this clause specifies that any changes to the standard terms must be made in writing and agreed upon by all parties involved, ensuring that no informal or unilateral modifications are valid. Its core function is to maintain consistency and clarity in contractual obligations by preventing unauthorized or unintended changes to the agreed-upon terms.
ALTERATION TO STANDARD TERMS. (a) Clause 1.1(v)(ii) of the Terms of Contract is amended by deleting ‘2.5(5)” and “5.3(1)(a)-(c), 5.3(1)(d)(ii) & (iii), 5.3(1)(e), 5.5” from Clause 1.1(v)(ii) and replacing with ‘Special Condition 3 of this “Annexure A – Special Conditions”’.
(b) Clauses 2.1, 2.3, 2.5(4), 2.6(1)-(11), 3.1 to 3.4, 4.1 to 4.5, 5.2(2), 5.3(1)(b)-(f), 5.3(2), 5.3(3), 5.4
(c) Insofar as it is appropriate and despite the deletion of clause 2.6(5), the Buyer must obtain and pay for searches and meter readings capable of discovery by search or enquiry, in accordance with clause 2.6(14).
(d) Adopting the definitions in clause 1.1 of the Terms of Contract, the Seller and Buyer acknowledge that clauses 2.6(1)-(11) are deleted because:
a. The Seller is obligated to use proceeds of sale, being funds presented or presentable at settlement of this Contract, in a priority order pursuant to regulation 146 of the Local Government Regulation 2012 (Qld);
b. It is therefore inappropriate for adjustments of Outgoings to occur before settlement contradicting that priority, and is instead appropriate for payment of funds presented or presentable at settlement of this Contract to be paid to the Seller for subsequent distribution pursuant to regulation 146 of the Local Government Regulation 2012 (Qld) including in respect of Outgoings apportioned to the day of settlement;
c. The Buyer, to either facilitate settlement of this Contract and/or the registration of the resulting transfer, is liable for land tax and any Outgoings not paid in full by operation of regulation 146 of the Local Government Regulation 2012 (Qld), and may be required to present further funds at settlement of this Contract to pay them; and
d. Should any Outgoings amount (other than rates or charges detailed in regulation 146(1)(f) of the Local Government Regulation 2012 (Qld)) be levied/issued/raised, but not yet overdue, the Buyer is liable for same in order to either facilitate settlement of this Contract and/or the registration of the resulting transfer, or thereafter by operation of law.
(e) Clause 5.1(2) of the Terms of the Contract is amended by deleting the clause and replacing with “If the parties have not otherwise agreed where settlement is to occur by the Settlement Date, the Place for Settlement will be the offices of the Seller.”
