Payments made by the other party shall always in the first place serve to settle all interest and costs owed and in the second place to settle all interest and costs owed.

 

second place of due and payable invoices that have been outstanding the longest, even if the other party states that the payment relates to a later invoice. If our other party fails to pay the amount owed on time, it shall, without any notice of default being required, owe the statutory interest for commercial transactions on the amount due and payable from the date on which that amount becomes due and payable.

7. Retention of title

 

We retain ownership of all goods delivered by us to the other party until the purchase price, including interest and costs, for all these goods has been paid in full. If, within the framework of these sales agreements, we perform work for the other party to be reimbursed by the other party, the aforementioned retention of title shall apply until the other party has also paid these claims of us in full. The retention of title also applies to the claims we may acquire against the other party on account of the other party's failure to fulfil one or more of its obligations towards us. As long as our aforementioned ownership continues, the other party will not be entitled to dispose of the goods delivered by us and/or to alienate them and/or encumber them and/or to process or process them. The other party shall, however, be permitted to use and/or sell the goods within the scope of its normal business operations, on the understanding that, until the other party has paid for the goods in full and has fulfilled its other obligations pursuant to similar agreements with us, we shall enter into the rights of the other party vis-à-vis its customers. The other party will then transfer these rights to us, insofar as necessary, which transfer we will accept. However, the other party is not allowed to alienate the goods within the framework of its normal business operations at the time that the other party has applied for suspension of payment or the other party has been declared bankrupt.

 

As long as the aforementioned ownership continues, we will be entitled to retrieve the goods delivered by us from the place where they are located without notice of default or judicial intervention at the expense of the other party. The other party is obliged to keep the goods delivered by us under retention of title with due care and recognizable as our property. If the other party is established in Germany or in Belgium and the goods to be delivered by us are actually delivered to the other party in Germany or in Belgium, the consequences under property law of the retention of title of the goods delivered and/or to be delivered to the German or Belgian other party shall then be governed by German or Belgian law. In such a case, the preceding provisions of this article 7 shall not apply. For the other party established in Germany, these shall be deemed to have been replaced by the provisions of Appendix 1 to these General Terms and Conditions. For the other party established in Belgium, the following conditions apply: "In the event of non-payment on the due date, the sale by us can be considered null and void by operation of law and without a reminder. The goods remain our property until full payment of the price. All risks are at the expense of the other party. The advances paid shall remain vested in us as compensation for possible losses in the event of resale".

 

8. Delivery

 

Delivery conditions are agreed per transaction. All delivery conditions apply in accordance with Incoterms 2010. Our other party is obliged to take delivery of the goods at the time they are made available to it in accordance with the agreement. If the other party does not take receipt of the goods, the other party will be in default and we will be entitled to choose:

 

(a) to transport the goods (or have them transported) to the address of the other party with a means of transport of our choice, or to store the goods at the other party's expense and risk,

 

or

 

(b) declare the agreement dissolved without notice of default and without judicial intervention, without prejudice to our right to compensation for the damage suffered by us or loss suffered by us.

 

profit, to be increased by the statutory interest, to be calculated from the moment the claim is due and payable.

 

The above applies without prejudice to the other rights to which we are entitled.

 

9. Delivery time

 

A delivery time stated by us is always an indication and not a deadline. We shall not be in default with regard to the delivery time until after we have been declared in default in writing by the other party, the other party has given us the opportunity to still deliver within a reasonable period of time and we have failed to do so. The delivery time shall not commence until after we have placed an order and and/or have accepted the order in writing and our other party has provided us with all data and/or materials required for the execution of the agreement and we have received any agreed advance payment from the other party. If it appears during the execution of the agreement that there is a delay in the delivery, the delivery time will be extended by as many days as the delay has lasted. We are not liable for damage as a result of late delivery, if and insofar as this late delivery is due to circumstances that are not at our expense and risk, which includes (timely) compliance by suppliers. Only in the event of excessive exceeding (more than 12 weeks) of the agreed delivery time, the other party is entitled to dissolve the agreement unless the exceeding is caused by force majeure. However, the other party will never be entitled to any penalty or compensation. The other party's failure to comply (on time) with any payment obligation shall suspend our delivery obligation. We reserve the right to deliver the goods in parts, in which case the (payment) conditions described below will also apply to each partial delivery.

 

10. Complaints

 

Our other party is obliged to check upon delivery whether the goods comply with the agreement. Our other party is obliged to submit any complaints about the delivered goods to us in writing within 8 (eight) days after delivery. This also applies to not ordered delivered items. If it concerns an external invisible defect, our other party is obliged to submit complaints about the goods delivered by us in writing within 8 (eight) days after the discovery of the defect, but in any case within 3 (three) months after delivery.

 

All complaints must be submitted by our other party stating the packing slip number and our database number. Complaints about invoices must also be submitted in writing within 8 (eight) days after the invoice date.

 

In the absence of such timely submission of complaints, all claims against us shall lapse. Possible return of goods is only possible if the goods are in original condition and in undamaged packaging. Items that do not originate from us or provided with (price) stickers other than those applied by us, are not eligible for return.

With regard to goods delivered by us, we shall not be further or otherwise liable than on account of material and/or construction faults in the goods that have come to light within 3 (three) months after the date of delivery as referred to in article 8, insofar as such faults significantly reduce the soundness or the quality of the goods. Our liability under this article is limited to the free delivery of replacement (parts of) goods. Instead of delivering replacement goods, we are entitled to repair the defective (parts of) goods delivered or to take them back against reimbursement of the relevant part of the invoice price. On goods delivered to us by third parties and by us to our other party

 

goods delivered by us, even if the goods delivered by us are composed of goods delivered to us by third parties, we will provide our other party with the same guarantee, but no further guarantee than we have received from our supplier(s). Our other party may only invoke our obligations based on this clause after our other party has fulfilled all its obligations arising from the agreement concluded with us. If we are liable for any reason, our liability will be limited to the amount equal to the invoice value of the goods concerned, excluding taxes, on the understanding that we will at most and exclusively be liable to an amount of € 5,000, - (five thousand euros) per claim. For the purposes of this article, a series of related damage-causing events shall be regarded as a single occurrence/claim. We shall never be liable to compensate non-material damage, trading loss, indirect damage, loss of profit or other consequential damage. Our other party is obliged to indemnify us against all claims from third parties in connection with goods delivered by us or work carried out by us.
