If a payment cannot be fulfilled within the Standard Payment Period due to late receipt of the invoice, the supplier will be notified of the late receipt of the invoice and when the supplier can expect to receive payment. If there is a dispute relating to an invoice, Optoma Europe Limited will provide the supplier with details of the dispute prior to expiry of the Standard Payment Period.
Payment Procedures
Optoma Europe Limited is able to fulfil payments to suppliers by cheque, BACS or CHAPS payment. The payment procedure for each supplier will be as agreed with the relevant supplier.

• The supplier will be notified in writing (by email or otherwise), prior to expiry of the Standard Payment Period, that the payment will not be fulfilled within the Standard Payment Period;
• The supplier will be provided with an explanation of the reason for the delay and a contact at Optoma Europe Limited who is responsible for resolving the dispute; and
• Optoma Europe Limited will use reasonable endeavours to seek to resolve the dispute and make the payment as soon as a resolution has been achieved.
