Additional or conflicting terms from those in these terms and conditions in an offer or acceptance by Buyer or communicated by any other means to Seller are expressly objected to and shall not be deemed accepted by Seller unless Seller’s acceptance thereof is in writing and specifically refers to each such additional or conflicting term. Unless otherwise provided, any and all contracts subject to these terms and conditions shall be deemed entered into in the country of the Seller's principal establishment, i.e. Belgium.

Without prejudice to article 9, second paragraph, as far as consumers (i.e. any individual or entity acquiring products or using services from the Buyer for exclusively non-professional purposes) are concerned, and unless otherwise expressly provided by Seller, no presentation of any product and/or service shall be deemed to amount to a legal offer and any contract of sale shall only be deemed entered into between Seller and Buyer upon issuance by Seller of the relevant shipping slip.

It is agreed that each delivery instalment will give rise to a separate contract subject to these terms and conditions, it being agreed, however, that Seller will be entitled to suspend and/or cancel any contract, to exercise its retention title or to set off any amount due, and this in respect of any other contract with Buyer.

2 DELIVERY / FORCE MAJEURE

3 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS / EXPORT CONTROL

Seller intends to comply with all laws or regulations applicable to the performance by Seller of each contract, provided, however, that any failure of Seller to so comply shall not be a defence to, or excuse Buyer from, performance by Buyer of any order. The sale, resale or other disposition of ordered items are subject to the export control laws, regulations and orders of Belgium and may be subject to the export and /or import control laws and regulations of other countries. Seller retains the right to cancel or delay delivery of any order at any time or amend the terms thereof, without penalty or liability of any nature, as required with respect to any export or import license or approval that Seller reasonably determines may be required.

Buyer acknowledges its responsibility to obtain any license to export, re-export or import as may be required.

4 WARRANTY / CLAIMS / LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

Seller warrants the items purchased under the contracts subject to these terms and conditions in accordance with the applicable warranty statement provided with the relevant item or published by the producer at the producer’s website.

To the extent the previous paragraph would not be regarded as satisfactory under any applicable law, the following warranty terms shall apply to ordered items.

Buyer shall not be entitled to invoke apparent defects and/or non-conformities if he fails to notify Seller thereof within two (2) business days (in Belgium) following receipt of the ordered items. Buyer shall notify Seller of hidden defects or hidden non-conformities within thirty (30) days of discovery and no later than ninety (90) days of the delivery of the non-conforming or defective item. No claim shall be allowed by any party other than the Buyer. Any claim for breach of this express warranty that is not made within the timeframes set forth herein shall be void. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Seller, Buyer shall set aside, protect, and hold the item at stake without further processing until Seller has an opportunity to inspect and advise of the disposition, if any, to be made of such item. In no event shall any item be returned, reworked, or scrapped by Buyer without the written authorization of Seller.

Seller will, as Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy and at Seller’s option, replace or, without replacement, render credit for any item sold to Buyer which, if properly selected, stored, processed and used by the Buyer shall prove and notify as being defective or non-conforming as per the previous paragraph. Seller’s material shall be deemed defective only to the extent that it materially deviates from the chemical, physical, and mechanical portions of producer’s applicable specifications, as published by the relevant producer or resulting from the nature of the sold item, and Seller’s standard manufacturing and commercial tolerances, variations and practices.

Samples supplied by Seller are solely for the purpose of evaluating the suitability of such material or services for potential use and, as such, the samples are not intended to serve as warranties of any type, either express or implied.

Buyer shall have sole responsibility for selection and specification of the goods or services appropriate for the end use of such goods or services, even if Buyer has informed Seller of the end use for such goods or services. Buyer acknowledges that it alone has determined that the materials purchased or processed hereunder will suitably meet the requirements of their intended use.

SELLER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO BUYER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR, AND BUYER RELEASES SELLER FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY FOR NEGLIGENCE BY SELLER WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTIVITY ENGAGED IN BY SELLER WITH REGARD TO THE GOODS OR SERVICES SOLD HEREUNDER AND FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY IMPOSED UPON MANUFACTURERS OR SELLERS OF GOODS OR SERVICES UNDER ANY PRODUCT LIABILITY THEORY OR UNDER ANY SIMILAR LEGAL THEORY. SELLER SHALL NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DELAY IN DELIVERY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR USE OF MATERIALS SOLD OR PROCESSED BY SELLER, BE LIABLE TO BUYER OR ANY OTHER PARTY FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF TURNOVER, LOSS OF SAVINGS, LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF CLIENTELE, LOSS OF DATA, THIRD-PARTIES' CLAIMS OR CLAIMS FOR LABOR. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER’S LIABILITY FOR DEFECTIVE MATERIAL SOLD TO BUYER EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE THEREOF.

EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, AND NOTWITHSTANDING ANY LANGUAGE IN THIS OR ANY OTHER PROVISION TO THE CONTRARY, THE WARRANTIES REFERRED TO HEREIN ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED; SELLER DISCLAIMS SPECIFICALLY THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, FOR HIDDEN/LATENT DEFECTS, OR OTHERWISE. NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, MADE BY ANY SALES REPRESENTATIVE OR OTHER AGENT OR REPRESENTATIVE OF SELLER WHICH IS NOT SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SHALL BE BINDING UPON SELLER.

Failure by Buyer to make any payment due hereunder, or on request to give proper shipping instructions, or to accept delivery at times stated, or to comply with all terms of any contract between Buyer and Seller shall give Seller, in addition to all other available remedies, the right at its option to deduct any undelivered quantities of material from the total quantity of material to be furnished whether under this or any other contract between Buyer and Seller. Title to and ownership of materials shall be retained by Seller until Seller receives payment from Buyer for said materials.

In the event of non-payment by Buyer of any debt, obligation or liability now or hereafter incurred or owing by Buyer to Seller, Seller shall have all rights of, and all of the remedies available to an unpaid secured creditor at law or in equity. Buyer agrees, and, to the extent permitted by law, Seller is authorized to, execute and file whatever documents are necessary, including security agreements or financing statements, to evidence and perfect the security interest granted by this paragraph.

12 ASSIGNMENT / SUBCONTRACTING

Buyer shall not assign any order or any interest therein without the written consent of Seller. Any such actual or attempted assignment without Seller's proper written consent shall entitle Seller to cancel such order upon notice to Buyer.

13 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND INDEMNIFICATION

Seller shall have no liability to Buyer or to any of its customers for claims of infringement based upon (i) the use of any ordered item in combination with any product not supplied by Seller or (ii) the use of any item designed, manufactured, or modified to the specifications of Buyer.

No modification hereof shall be of any force and effect unless in writing and signed by the party claimed to be bound thereby. A waiver of any of the terms or conditions hereof shall not be deemed a continuing waiver, but shall apply solely to the instance to which the waiver is directed.
