(1)We shall invoice the goods on the date when they are ready to be sent.
(2)If not stated otherwise, payment has to be made within 30 days net after date of invoice. Should the Purchaser fail to pay in time, we will demand interest of 4 % above the current bank-rate by the Federal Bank. If we are in a position to prove considerable damage caused by the default, we will be entitled to make claims. However, the Purchaser is entitled to prove that no damage or less damages was caused by the delay in payment.
(3)We shall accept promissory notes only with prior written agreement. Promissory notes and cheques shall only be accepted on account of performance.
(4)A payment shall not be regarded as having been effected until we have the amount at our disposal. For payments by cheque, the date on which the cheque is cashed shall be decisive.

In this case we shall also be entitled to demand advance payments or provisions of security.

We cannot be hold liable for any loss of profit or other financial damage of the Purchaser.
(3)Should the goods be damaged due to our fault, we are entitled either to repair or to replace the goods.
(4)If no other stipulations are made in the following, further claims by the Purchaser are excluded without exception. Therefore we cannot be hold liable for damages of the goods.
(5)Should we, by negligence, not keep to an important obligation stipulated in the contract, our liability for damages will only be the cover of our insurance.
(1)We reserve all rights to the title of the goods until full payment has been made. Should the Purchaser fail to keep to its obligations, we are entitled to take the goods back. This will represent no cancellation of the contract. Afterwards we are entitled to resell the goods. The proceeds are to be settled with the liabilities of the Purchaser deducting appropriate costs for the resale.
(2)In the case of seizure or other inventions by a third party the Purchaser has to inform us immediately in writing so that we can bring an action according to § 771 ZPO. Should the third party not be able to pay the costs of an action, the Purchaser is liable.

It is unimportant whether the goods have been re-sold before or after processing. The Purchaser is authorized to collect these claims even after this assignment. This does not touch our right to collect the debts ourselves. However, we undertake not to collect the claim as long as the Purchaser meets his liabilities from these proceeds, as long as he is in no delay of payment and, in particular, as long as no petition for bankruptcy proceedings has been filed. If this is the case we are entitled to demand that the Purchaser names the assignments as well as the debtor, that he gives all information necessary for collection, that he hands out all documents and informs the debtor (third party) of the assignment.
(4)Processing the goods by the Purchaser will always be for us. If the goods are mixed with other goods which do not belong to us, we will become owner to the proportion of the goods' vallue at the time of processing. The same is valid for goods delivered on reservation, as well as for mixed goods or when new goods are created.
(5)Until all debts (including all balances due from current account) which the Purchaser owes us for any legal ground have been discharged, we shall be granted the following collateral, which we shall release upon request at our choice should its lasting value surpass that of the debts by more than 20%.

However, we are also entitled to sue the Purchaser in the courts in whose district his head office is situated or the Place of Settlement is located.
(3)The parties to the agreement undertake to replace ineffective provisions with new provisions which most closely approximate the economic purpose of this agreement. The same applies should a loophole in the agreement be discovered.
