Being Australian guarantees apply only to domestic use of products.

- (9.2.1) the Customer may only sell the Goods as Being Australian's fiduciary agent for the account of Being Australian and the proceeds of such sale (including any proceeds from insurance claims) will be the property of Being Australian to be held by the Customer for and on behalf of Being Australian in a separate bank account;
- (9.2.2) the Customer must store the Goods in a proper manner that clearly identifies the Goods as the property of Being Australian;
- (9.2.3) the Customer must notify Being Australian in writing of any intended sale of the Customer's business that purports to include the Goods as part of the Customer's stock; and
