1.1 The following terms of sale, delivery and payment apply to
all contracts, deliveries and other services including consulting

or in another form are valid once dispatch and delivery of the
goods and invoice has occurred.
3. Prices, price lists
3.1 Our prices are Ex Works prices not including packaging
costs and include the disposal costs levied by DSD GmbH
("Grüner Punkt"). The prices that were valid at the time the

level.
3.2 For small orders with a net value of less than Euro 75.00 a

3.3 If the agreed delivery date extends out longer than one
month from the conclusion of the contract, we are entitled to

2% discount or 20 days from issue in full.
4.2. The purchaser is in default of payment upon receipt of the
first reminder or without a reminder 30 days after the due date
and after receipt of an invoice according to article 286,
paragraph 3 of the BGB (German Civil Code). In case of
default we are entitled to default interest - subject to proof of
additional loss caused by the default - according to article 288
of the BGB (German Civil Code).
4.3 Offsetting payment against claims from the purchaser that
are not approved or not legally determined is not permitted.
This applies to the right for reassessment regarding such
counterclaims where these claims do not relate to the same
contractual relationship.
5. Delivery
5.1. Our delivery obligations include complete and correct
delivery on our part, unless non-delivery or delay is not our
fault.
5.2. For custom-produced goods overdeliveries or
underdeliveries of up to 10% are permitted and will be invoiced
accordingly.
5.3. As regards the stated measurements of the items being
delivered, the measurements are subject to the normal
variations within the industry, unless we expressly guaranteed
compliance with the measurements.
5.4 We are permitted to make reasonably sized part deliveries.
5.5. If dispatch of the ordered items is delayed for reasons,
which are the fault of the purchaser, risk passes to the
purchaser upon receipt of notification that delivery can be
made.
5.6 Reliable dispatch of the ordered goods is guaranteed by a
carrier appointed by us. The parties agree that in the case of
dispute, it rests with the purchaser to prove non-receipt of a
delivery.
6. Delivery date
Agreed delivery dates can be appropriately extended due to
the occurrence of unforeseen circumstances, which we are
unable to influence, such as strikes, lock-outs, operational
failure, delays in the delivery of primary material and
regardless of whether these circumstances occur at our
facilities or at our suppliers' facilities. We cannot be held
responsible for such circumstances even if we are already behind
schedule with delivery. If they occur, both parties have the right to
cancel the contract.
7. Retention of title
7.1. We retain title to items delivered by us until all our current
claims against the purchaser are met, including future claims, as
long as they are related to the delivered items.
7.2. The purchaser has the right to sell on the delivered items to
which we retain title (goods subject to reservation of title) as part
of the normal course of business. However, due to this sale the
purchaser assigns all claims to the goods to us at this stage
regardless of whether the goods subject to reservation of title are
sold on before processing or if they are attached to movable
objects or not. If the goods subject to retention of title are sold on
after processing or together with other goods that do not belong
to us, or if they are attached to movable objects, then claims of
the purchaser against his customer to the amount of the delivery
price agreed between the purchaser and us for the goods subject
to retention of title are considered to have been relinquished.
7.3 The purchaser is authorized to collect on this claim even after
relinquishment. Our authority to collect on the claim ourselves
remains unaffected by this, however we are obliged not to do this
as long as the purchaser makes use of the authorization to collect
and we are entitled to the proceeds collected in the amount of the
delivery price agreed between the purchaser and us for the
goods subject to retention of title.
7.4 Processing or modification of the goods subject to retention of
title is carried out without any obligation to us as manufacturer
according to article 950 of the BGB (German Civil Code). If the
goods subject to retention of title are processed with other items,
we acquire joint ownership of the new item proportional to the
market value of our goods compared to the value of the other
processed items at the time of the processing. The purchaser will
store the new item for us with due care and attention and at no
charge.
7.5 We are obliged to release the security to which we are
entitled upon request, where the realisable value of the security
exceeds the claims by more than 20%.
7.6 If we accept a bill of exchange as payment, our retention of
title lasts until it can be ascertained that claims related to the bill
of exchange can no longer be made against us.
8. Liability for defects, compensation
8.1. Claims for defects by the purchaser are only valid if the
purchaser has fulfilled their duty to investigate and notify any
defects properly as per article 377 of the HGB (German
Commercial Code). Obvious defects must be notified specifically
and in writing within 10 days of receipt of the goods.
8.2. Where there is a defect in the purchased item, we are
entitled at our choosing to either repair/remove the defect or
deliver a new, defect-free item.
8.3. If the remedial action fails, the purchaser has the right at the
purchaser's choosing to either cancel the contract or demand a
price reduction.
8.4 We are liable according to the legal requirements, where we
breach a significant contractual obligation, restricted to the
damage that typically and predictably occurs. Our liability is also
restricted in this way, where the purchaser makes compensation
claims based on gross negligence.
8.5 Liability for culpable injury to life, body or health remains
unaffected; this also applies to mandatory liability as per the
product liability law.
8.6. Apart from the aforementioned deviations, liability is
excluded.
8.7 The period of limitation for defect claims is 12 months, from
transfer of risk.
9. Place of performance, jurisdiction, applicable law
9.1. Place of performance is Wolfratshausen.
9.2 The place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from our legal
relationship to the purchaser is Wolfratshausen. However, we are
entitled to file legal proceedings where the head office of the
purchaser is located.
9.3 German law applies!
