    11.2 This guarantee is valid only for new products for a period of twelve (12) months after delivery (including any “viewing period”) to the Other Party. Aguarantee for goods purchased by the Supplier from third parties is only given if and insofar as it is guaranteed by this third party.

    11.3 Faults in any goods supplied which fall under the guarantee will, exclusively at the discretion of the Supplier, be rectified or the goods will be replaced if the faults, in the opinion of the Supplier and/or producer, are attributable to construction faults or faults/failings of the materials used as a result of which the goods are unusable by the Other Party for the purpose for which they can reasonably be thought of as intended.

    11.4 In principle, guarantee work will be performed within the business of the Supplier (for example, by his service department) and during normal working hours. Activities associated with guarantees will only be performed outside normal working hours if a separate service contract has been entered into and only when and insofar as this is specified in this service contract.

    11.5 The Supplier is entitled to allow guarantee activities to be performed outside his own business if this, in the opinion of the Supplier, is in the best interest of these activities or if the performance of such activities within the business of the Supplier is not reasonably possible or desirable.

    11.9 No guarantee is provided for consumables.

    11.10 If the Other Party fails to fulfil one or more of his obligations then the Supplier is released from his guarantee obligations.

    11.11 Satisfying the guarantee obligation shall be deemed to be the only and complete compensation.

    12.1 If and for so long as the Other Party has not satisfied his obligations towards the Supplier then the Supplier has the right to retain all goods in his possession which have come from the Other Party or have come on behalf of the Other Party, no matter the origin or reason.

    12.2 In the event the Supplier exercises his right of retention in relation to certain goods, the Other Party has no right to any reimbursement in the event of full or partial destruction or loss of the goods and/or damage to the goods beyond the liable fault of the Supplier.

    12.3 The risk for the goods remains with the Other Party throughout the period that the Supplier exercises his right of retention.

    13 Ownership reservation

    13.1 Without prejudice to the provisions in Article 7 of these Conditions regarding the risk and the transfer thereof, all the goods supplied by or on behalf of the Supplier remain the property of the Supplier until the moment that the debt owed by the Other Party to the Supplier has been settled in full, this debt likewise including the amount that the Other Party has owed the Supplier since the realisation of the agreement inclusive of all interest and costs. For so long as the ownership of the goods supplied by or on behalf of the Supplier remains with the Supplier according to the provisions in this Article, the Other Party is obliged to hold these goods separately from other goods in such a way that they can easily and clearly be identified as the goods of the Supplier.

    13.2 In the case of non-payment by the Other Party of any amount due to the Supplier and furthermore when the agreement is ended, the Supplier will be entitled to demand the return of any goods for which ownership reservation applies and to take the measures associated with this, taking into account any payments already made for the goods, without prejudice to the right of the Supplier to demand compensation for possible loss or damage. In the case of non-payment or termination of an agreement each claim which the Supplier has against the Other Party becomes immediately due.

    13.3 At the first request from Supplier the Other Party must authorise the immediate return of the goods which have not yet been fully paid for, wherever these may be.

    13.4 The Other Party is entitled to sell or to use goods on which there is an ownership reservation in favour of the Supplier within the framework of normal business operations; however, no right of security can be bestowed on these goods, while, with regard to these goods, the Other Party must not perform any actions or allow any actions to be performed which result in these goods becoming a part or element of one or more other goods. When goods with an ownership reservation still in favour of the Supplier are sold on, the Other Party is obliged to reserve ownership for himself and at the first request from the Supplier to cede to the Supplier all demands against the debtor of the Other Party, up to the amount that the Other Party owes.


    14 Liability of the Supplier

    14.1 The total liability of the Supplier on account of a liable failing in the fulfilment of the agreement or for any other reason, including any failing in the fulfilment of a guarantee undertaking agreed between the parties, is limited to reimbursement of direct losses to a maximum sum of the price (excl.

    14.6 The exclusions and restrictions indicated in Articles 14.1 to 14.5 lapse if and insofar as the losses are the consequence of intentional or deliberate recklessness of the Supplier’s management.

    14.7 Unless fulfilment by the Supplier is permanently impossible, the liability of the Supplier for liable failing in the fulfilment of an agreement shall only arise if the Other Party declares the Supplier in default in writing without delay, granting a grace period for the rectification of the failing, and the Supplier has still failed to meet his obligations after the period. Declaration of default must contain as full and detailed a description as possible of the failure so that the Supplier may respond adequately.

    14.8 A condition for any right to compensation arising is always that the Other Party notifies the loss to the Supplier in writing as quickly as possible after it arises.

    14.9 Any claim that the Other Party has on the Supplier shall lapse by the simple elapsing of twelve months from the date on which the claim arises, and in any case after the elapsing of three years from the delivery by the Supplier, irrespective of the legal grounds of the claim.

    14.11 The provisions in this Article and all other restrictions and exclusions of liability given in the Conditions shall also apply in favour of all (legal) persons on whom the Supplier calls in the implementation of the agreement and in favour of the concern of which he/she or they form(s) part.

    14.12 With regard to goods and services which the Supplier has obtained from a third 14.12 party, the (contractual and/or guarantee) provisions applicable to the agreement in question shall also apply to the agreement between the Supplier and the Other Party, if and insofar as the Supplier invokes this.


    15 Claims

    15.1 Notwithstanding the provisions in Article 8.3 the Supplier shall only accept claims for processing if it receives them from the Other Party in Written form within eight (8) days of delivery. For hidden faults, claims are only possible within the guarantee period.

    15.2 Contrary to the provisions in Article 15.1 any claims with regard to goods for which a test or inspection takes place must be made immediately on the date of testing or inspection and at the place where this testing or inspection occurs and then confirmed at once to the Supplier in writing.

    16.2 The absence of any permits, concessions, licences, consents and so forth as indicated in Article 16.1 shall be considered as a liable failing (failure) on the part of the Other Party and shall not exempt the Other Party from any of his commitments towards the Supplier, nor can it be a reason for the postponement of the fulfilment of any obligation the Other Party has towards the Supplier.

    16.3 The Other Party is liable for all losses which directly or indirectly may be caused by the absence of any permits, concessions, licences, consents and so forth as indicated in Article 16.1 and the Other Party indemnifies the Supplier against claims and demands connected with such losses.

    17.1 All right of intellectual and industrial ownership to the software, databases, diagrams, equipment, installations, solutions, analyses, designs, documentation, reports, proposals, and preparatory materials for the same developed or made available by the Supplier for the Other Party, remains exclusively with the Supplier, his licensors or his subcontractors. The Other Party only receives the usage rights that are expressly assigned in the Conditions and the law. These usage rights are non-exclusive and non-transferable to third parties. Any other or further right of the Other Party is excluded.

    17.2 If, contrary to expectation, a good sold by the Supplier to the Other Party in The Netherlands infringes an industrial or intellectual ownership right of a third party and the Other Party is held liable, then the Other Party is obliged at once to inform the Supplier in writing of the situation. In this case the Supplier has at his discretion either to supply the right to use that good to the Other Party, or to modify the good in such a way that there is no further infringement, or to deliver a replacement good that does not infringe the right, or once he receives the good back to repay to the Other Party the purchase price less a reasonable payment for the period that the Other Party had the good at his disposal. With regard to infringements of industrial and intellectual property rights outside The Netherlands the Other Party can make no claim or demand whatsoever against the Supplier.

    17.3 The Supplier is not liable for the infringement of any right of industrial or intellectual ownership or of any other exclusive right which is the consequence of:

  • any change of or to a good sold or delivered by or on behalf of the Supplier;
  • any use of such a good
  • any application of such a good other than that recommended by the Supplier or expected or assumed by the Supplier
  • integration with or use or application in combination with goods not sold and delivered by or on behalf of the Supplier
  • a software modification which is not carried out by or on behalf of the Supplier.

  • 18 Payment and default

    18.1 The Other Party shall pay invoices in accordance with the terms of payment given in the invoice. If no specific conditions are stated in the invoice, the Other Party shall pay within thirty days of the given date of invoice. The Other Party is not entitled to offset or delay payment. The date on the Supplier’s bank or giro statement when the payment is recorded as received applies as the date on which the payment has occurred.

    18.2 Any payment by the Other Party shall – if applicable – go in the first place towards settlement of any interest he owes and towards any costs of collection and administrative costs owed to the Supplier, and then towards settlement of the outstanding claims in order of age, therefore commencing with the oldest outstanding claim.

    18.3 If the Other Party does not settle sums owed to the Supplier punctually, the Other Party shall without a warning or declaration of default being necessary also owe the outstanding amount of statutory interest. If following reminder to pay, warning or declaration of default the Other Party still fails to fulfil his payment obligations within a reasonable period he shall by rights be in default. From that moment the Supplier may pass the claim on for collection. Once the claim is passed on the Other Party is obliged besides the rightfully established costs to reimburse the Supplier for the actual legal costs of the Supplier and the actual extra-judicial costs including the costs charged by external experts.


    19 Ending an agreement

    19.1 In the event a party is in default, this entitles the counterparty to dissolve all of part of the agreement notwithstanding the entitlement to claim for fulfilment.

    19.2 The Supplier is in the event of dissolution not obliged to pay any compensation.

    19.3 The Supplier may without declaration of default dissolve the agreement with immediate effect in the event the other party is declared bankrupt, cedes property, is granted (temporary or definitive) surseance of payment, in the event that all or part of the assets of the counterparty are seized or in the event that the counterparty’s enterprise is liquidated or wound up.

    19.4 If a party terminates or dissolves an agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Article then the amount that the Other Party owes to the Supplier at the moment of termination or dissolution remains as the full debt and the Other Party will be liable to pay interest and costs according to the provisions of these Conditions, without prejudice to the right of the Supplier to demand damages, to make use of the rights arising from ownership retention, to take other (legal) measures and other rights due to the Supplier.


    20 Cancellation by other Party

    20.1 If the Other Party wishes to cancel an order he has issued and Supplier consents to this, the Other Party shall owe the Supplier for the costs of cancellation. The costs of cancellation are expressed as a percentage of the amount connected with the agreement and depend on work meanwhile undertaken by the Supplier to implement the agreement, the nature or type of services and goods to which the order relates, and the costs that he has incurred up to the moment of cancellation.

    20.2 In the event of cancellation as indicated in this Article the Supplier is never obliged to reimburse any losses of the Other Party.


    21 Applicable law and disputes

    21.1 Dutch law shall apply to all Offers and agreements entered into by or on behalf of the Supplier. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (Vienna Sales Convention 1980) is barred from application.

    21.2 Disputes arising from an agreement concluded between the Supplier and the Other Party shall be presented to the authorised judge of the district in which the Supplier is located as judge of first instance, with the proviso that if a particular judge is mandatorily appointed as competent judge then the dispute will be decided in the first instance by the judge so appointed, in either case without prejudice to the right of the Supplier to seizure or to take other provisional measures at the place(s) and before the legal bodies that the Supplier wishes.

    21.3 The provisions of Article 21.2 leave intact the right of the Supplier to bring the dispute before a judge qualified according to the normal competency rules or to obtain a settlement by means of arbitration or binding advice.


    22 Validity

    22.1 If any provision in these Conditions is not completely valid or only partially valid and/or not enforceable as a result of any legal directive, judicial judgement or any directive, decision, recommendation or measure from any local, regional, national or supranational authority or body or otherwise then this will have no effect on the validity of the other provisions in these Conditions. If a provision in these Conditions happens not to be valid for one or other reason indicated in the previous sentence but would be valid if it had a more limited range or scope then this provision will be automatically valid with the most far-reaching or extensive range or scope with which or within which it is valid.
