6.3 It is further agreed that:

[a] where practicable the Goods shall be kept separate and identifiable until the Seller shall have received payment and all other obligations of the Client are met; and

[b] until such time as ownership of the Goods shall pass from the Seller to the Client the Seller may give notice in writing to the Client to return the Goods or any of them to the Seller. Upon such notice being given the rights of the Client to obtain ownership or any other interest in the Goods shall cease; and

[c] the Client is only a bailee of the Goods and until such time as the Seller has received payment in full for the Goods then the Client shall hold any proceeds from the sale or disposal of the Goods on trust for the Seller; and

[d] until such time that ownership in the Goods passes to the Client, if the Goods are converted into other products, the parties agree that the Seller will be the owner of the end products; and
