The delivery period is reasonably extended in cases where the delivery is delayed due to unforeseen events, in particular lack of energy or raw materials, strike, lockout, official measures or delay or failure of sub-supplies. If the obstacles last longer than one month, or if there is a stoppage of operations at the seller’s company or its subcontractors, or longer-term exceptional events that are beyond the seller’s control, the seller is entitled to withdraw from the contract.

6.7 Any requests by the buyer to change the purchase contract, if accepted by the seller, extend the agreed delivery period to a reasonable extent. If the buyer’s requirements to change the quality of the products are accepted, the seller’s right to a possible price adjustment is associated with this. In such a case, the seller is released from responsibility for defects that occurred as a result of a non-standard technological procedure in order to ensure the buyer’s requirements.

6.8 For the buyer’s delay in fulfilling the obligation to collect the goods, the seller is entitled to charge a contractual penalty of 0.1% of the price of the uncollected goods without prejudice to his other possible claims (in particular the claim to compensation for storage costs and the claim to compensation for damages in full) every begun decade of delay days.

11. Property right to the subject of the purchase contract

11.1 The buyer acquires ownership of the goods as soon as the full purchase price is paid to the seller. Until all of the seller’s delivery-related claims against the buyer are met (payments by check or bill of exchange are fulfilled only by their payment), the seller reserves ownership of the delivered goods. The buyer may resell the goods subject to retention of title only in regular business dealings. The buyer is not entitled to dispose of the goods other than to sell them (in particular to pawn them or to guarantee the goods to third parties). When selling goods subject to retention of title to third parties, the buyer is obliged to reserve the right of ownership against them. All receivables due to him from resale or for other legal reasons are forwarded to the seller in advance to secure them and he is obliged to inform his debtors about this. If the seller’s claims are due, the buyer is obliged to deposit the collected amounts separately and immediately pay them to the seller. The buyer must notify the seller immediately of third-party interventions in goods subject to retention of title or in assigned claims. Potential costs in the event of intervention are paid by the buyer.

11.2 In the event of non-compliance with the payment terms, when filing a motion to initiate insolvency proceedings, when payments are stopped and when the company is liquidated, the buyer’s right to process and sell the goods falling under the reservation of title and to collect claims assigned by the seller shall cease. In this case, the seller is entitled to take over the goods at his disposal. If the seller does so, it has the effects of withdrawal from the contract only if the seller clearly and explicitly declares it. The costs of storage, transport and other costs incurred as a result of taking back are borne by the buyer.
