4. Delivery and Term of Delivery; Export Clause

4.7We will inform the Purchaser about performance delays immediately after we become aware thereof. Performance delays due to force majeure, e.g. strike or lockout in third party businesses or in our business (in the latter case, however, only if the industrial action is lawful), official orders, general disruption of telecommunication or other circumstances beyond our control (hereinafter “force majeure”) or circumstances in the Purchaser’s sphere (e.g. obligation to collaborate does not take place in good time) shall not be attributable to us and shall entitle us to defer the affected performance for the duration of the obstacle plus an adequate start-up period. If the force majeure continues to exist for more than three months, we as well as the Purchaser are released from the duty to perform. Our further rights, in particular regarding the Purchaser’s default of acceptance, remain unaffected.

We are released from our duty to deliver and perform, as far as there is a conflict with any export restrictions.

5. Passing of Risk and Default of Acceptance

5.1 The risk of accidental perishing and deterioration passes to the Purchaser with handover of the Goods at the latest. If the Purchaser demands shipment of the Goods to another place than the place of performance (Versendungskauf - sales shipment), the risk of accidental perishing and accidental deterioration of the Goods shall pass to the Purchaser with handover of the delivery item to the shipper, freight carrier or any other third person entrusted with the transport. This also applies, if partial deliveries are made. The same applies if the Purchaser is in default of acceptance.

6. Retention of Title

6.1 We reserve the right to ownership of the delivered Goods until receipt of all payments relating to the business relationship with the Purchaser.

6.2 In case of breach of contract by the Purchaser including, without limitation to, default of payment, we are entitled to take possession of the Goods subject to retention of title. By taking possession of the Goods subject to retention of title, we withdraw from the contract. After we have taken back the Goods, we are entitled to liquidate/sell them and to apply the proceeds towards the Purchaser’s accounts payable – after deduction of adequate sales costs.

6.3 In case of attachments or other interventions by third parties the Purchaser is obliged to inform us immediately in writing.

6.4 The Purchaser is entitled to resell the Goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business; he already by now assigns to us all accounts receivables in the amount of the final invoice amount (including VAT) of our account receivable, which he receives by reselling against its customers or third parties irrespective of the fact, whether the Goods have been resold in a processed or unprocessed condition. The Purchaser remains entitled to collect this account receivable after the assignment. Our right to collect the account receivable on our own remains unaffected. We commit ourselves, however, not to collect the account receivable as long as the Purchaser complies with its payment obligations from the collected sales revenues, he is not in default of payment and in particular no request to open insolvency proceedings has been filed or a cessation of payments is at hand. If, however, that is the case we may demand that the Purchaser notifies the assigned accounts receivables and its debtors to us, to give us any and all required information to collect the accounts receivables, to hand over the corresponding documentation and to inform the debtors (third parties) about the assignment.

6.5 Any processing or transformation of the Goods by the Purchaser is carried out for us. If the Goods should be processed with other items not belonging to us, we acquire co-ownership of the new item proportionally to the price of the Goods (final invoice amount, incl. VAT) in relation to the other processed goods at the time of processing. The Purchaser keeps the new items in custody for us. For the rest, the same provisions apply to an item resulting from processing or transformation as to Goods delivered under title retention.

6.6 If the Goods should be compounded inseparably with other goods not belonging to us, we acquire co-ownership on the new item proportionally to the price of the Goods (final invoice amount, incl. VAT) in relation to the other processed goods at the time of mixture. If mixture happens in a way that the Purchaser’s item is considered as the main item, it is agreed that the Purchaser transfers co-ownership in this item proportionally to us. The Purchaser keeps the new items in custody for us. For the rest, the same provisions apply to an item resulting from mixture as to Goods delivered under title retention.

6.7 We commit ourselves to release our collaterals on Purchaser’s demand if the feasible value of our collaterals exceeds the receivables by more than 10%. We may choose the collaterals to release.

7. Ownership of Moulds and Tools

8. Warranty Rights

8.2 If the delivered Goods are defective, we are entitled to choose, whether we perform supplementary performance by removal of defects (subsequent improvement) or by delivery of Goods free from defects (replacement delivery).

8.3We are entitled to make the owed supplementary performance dependent on the payment of the due purchase price by Purchaser. Purchaser is entitled, however, to retain a part of the purchase price, which his adequate in proportion to the defect.

8.4 The Purchaser is obliged to give us the time and the opportunity to perform the owed supplementary performance, in particular to hand over the Goods being object of complaint for examination purposes. In case of a replacement delivery he is obliged to hand over to us the defective Goods according to the statutory regulations.

8.5 The expenditures required to examine and to perform supplementary, in particular transport, travel, labour and material costs, are borne by us, if there is actually a defect and as far as they are not increased due to shipment of the Goods to a place differing from the place of fulfilment.

8.6 Defects arising out of usual abrasion or deterioration respectively are not subject to claims for defects.

8.7 We are not liable for defects if the reason for the defect is attributable to the Purchaser, e.g. inappropriate use or changes or repairs by the Purchaser or a third party, unless the Purchaser proves that the defect is not the result of such actions.

8.8 We are not responsible for any compliance of Goods delivered by us with foreign regulations, if not agreed upon in writing.

8.9 If the Purchaser’s request for supplementary performance should be unjustified (pseudo-defect), we are entitled to demand reimbursement for the costs arisen therefrom unless Purchaser would not have been able to recognise the pseudo-defect even by applying all due care.

8.10 If supplementary performance fails or is unacceptable for the Purchaser or if we refuse both ways of supplementary performance in the meaning of Sec. 439 para. 3 German Civil Code, the Purchaser may at his discretion demand reduction of the purchase price or recede from the contract according to the statutory provisions.

8.11 Regarding the Purchaser’s entitlement to damages respectively compensation of wasted expenses Sec. 9 applies in addition.

8.12 The limitation period for claims due to defects is one year starting with the delivery of the Goods. In case of liability for damages arising from wilful intent or gross negligence, in case of fraudulent concealment of a defect, in case of damages deriving from the injury to life, body or health, in case of defect of title according to Sec. 438 para 1 Nr. 1a German Civil Code, guarantees according to Sec. 444 German Civil Code and claims due to recourse of the entrepreneur in case of final delivery to a consumer (“Lieferantenregress”, Sec. 479 German Civil Code) the statutory limitation period applies, likewise for claims based on the German Product Liability Act [Produkthaftungsgesetz].

8.13 Sec. 8.12 applies respectively regarding limitation period of other claims of the Purchaser of any kind vis-à-vis us based on a defect of a Good, if not the application of the statutory limitation period in the individual case leads to a shorter limitation period. The limitation period of other claims according to the preceding sentence begins differing from Sec. 8.12 with the commencement of limitation by law.

9. General Liability

9.1 We shall be liable – no matter on what legal grounds – for compensation of damage or reimbursement of futile expenses in accordance with the provisions stated in Lit. (a) and (b):

(a) In the event of wilful intent or gross negligence, we shall be liable without limitations. In the event of simple negligence, we shall only be liable for damages arising from the breach of a material contractual obligation (obligation the discharge of which is an essential prerequisite for the proper performance of the contract and the discharge of which Purchaser generally can and does rely upon); in this case, however, our liability shall be limited to the foreseeable damage, typical of this type of contract.
