         DISCLAIMERS FOR COST ESTIMATES
       1 The information set out in the above table was prepared for the sole purposes of Cape Bouvard Developments (“Client”) for the purpose of providing general information about the cost of landscape goods and
         services to be provided by third parties and which are contemplated in the attached plan(s) (“Purpose”). The information is strictly limited to the Purpose and does not apply directly or indirectly and will not be used
         for any other application, purpose, use or matter. The information is presented without the assumption of a duty of care to any other person (other than the Client) (“Third Party”) and may not be relied on by Third
         Party.
       2 Natural Solutions has compiled the information in the above table from varying tenders received by it from third parties for the provision of landscape goods and services over the past 6 months. The information is
         not intended to be an exact estimate of costs of the landscape works or specifically refer to the goods and services required by the Client. The information is provided by third parties and Natural Solutions does not
         provide an opinion nor make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy, suitability or reasonableness of any of the prices or information contained in the above table.
       3 The information in the above table is intended to provide an initial and general estimate of costs only. Due to the number of variables involved in construction and structural works, the information should only be
         used as a general guide to costs. Prior to proceeding with any work the Client should obtain an exact estimate of costs from a licensed Quantity Surveyor.
       4 Natural Solutions will not be liable (in negligence or otherwise) for any direct or indirect loss, damage, liability or claim arising out of or incidental to the Client or a Third Party using or relying on information
         contained in the above table without obtaining a further estimate from a Quantity Surveyor, nor in any case where Natural Solutions has used or relied on information provided to it by the Client or a Third Party
         where the information is incorrect, incomplete, inaccurate, out-of-date or unreasonable.
