  1. Retention of Title business customers
    1. Delivery takes place under extensive retention of title (eigendomsvoorbehoud). All goods delivered by Seller will remain the Seller’s property until Buyer has fulfilled all its payment obligations under all purchase agreements concluded between the parties (including obligations to pay interests or (collection) costs). As long as Buyer has not fulfilled its payment obligations, Buyer undertakes vis-à-vis the Seller to treat the delivered goods with due care, to keep them insured and not to pledge, process them, transfer them or hand them over to third parties. In the event of non-performance of this obligation, the entire purchase price involved in the agreement will become immediately due and payable.

    2. If any force majeure situation has lasted two (2) months, Seller will be entitled to dissolve the Agreement in whole or in part in writing.
    3. In the event of a situation of force majeure, Buyer is not entitled to any compensation (for damages), not even if Seller could derive any benefit as a result of the force majeure.
    4. In addition to what is understood in this respect by law and case law, force majeure includes all external causes, foreseen and unforeseen, on which Seller cannot exert any influence, as a result of which the fulfillment of its obligations towards Buyer is wholly or partly prevented or as a result of which the fulfillment of its obligations cannot reasonably be demanded of Seller, regardless of whether that circumstance was also foreseeable at the time the Agreement was concluded. These circumstances include: strikes, lockouts, fire, machine breakdowns, stagnation or other problems in production by Seller’s suppliers and/or measures taken by any government authority (such as recall actions), as well as the absence of any governmental permit to be obtained.
  1. Industrial and intellectual property

    2. Unless explicitly agreed otherwise in writing, the rights to the data mentioned in this article remain the property of Seller regardless of whether Buyer has been charged for the production thereof.
    3. All information, whether orally or in writing, provided by Seller to Buyer, remains the property of Seller and may only be used by Buyer for the purpose for which it was provided.
    4. Buyer will not provide the information of Seller to third parties in any way whatsoever, except insofar as this is reasonably necessary for the proper execution of the Agreement and then only after and insofar as a confidentiality obligation has been agreed upon.
  1. Seller’s liability
    1. Seller will not be liable for any indirect damage suffered by Buyer or a third party in connection with (the performance of) an Agreement or a good or service provided by Seller, including consequential damage, immaterial damage, business or environmental damage.
    2. Any liability on the part of Seller will in any event be limited to a maximum of twice the invoice value of the order placed by Buyer with Seller, or at least to that part of the order to which the liability relates. If Seller is insured and actually pays out of its insurance as a result of the liability in question, its liability will be limited to that amount paid out.
    3. The exclusion of liability in this Article will not apply if damage is caused by intent or gross negligence on the part of Seller or its executive staff.
    4. Buyer may only invoke the obligations ensuing from this Article if it has itself fulfilled all the obligations vis-à-vis the Seller.
    5. Any right of claim of Buyer against Seller, for whatever reason, expires at the latest one year after delivery of the goods sold to Buyer.
  1. Suspension, setoff and dissolution
    1. In the following cases, Buyer will be in default by operation of law and Seller will be entitled to dissolve the Agreement in whole or in part – without any notice of default or judicial intervention being required – extrajudicially:
      • if Buyer applies for bankruptcy or (provisional) suspension of payments, or if Buyer is declared bankrupt, (provisional) suspension of payments is granted, or if Buyer is placed under administration, management or guardianship by virtue of a statutory provision;
      • if Buyer transfers, liquidates, discontinues or ceases (parts of) its undertaking or its activities;
      • if a prejudgment attachment or executory attachment is made against Buyer;
      • if Seller has good reason to fear that Buyer will fail to fulfill its obligations, or if Buyer has already failed to fulfill its obligations.
