General Terms and Conditions of Sale

They shall be deemed incorporated into each sales and purchase agreement for such products (“Sales Contract”). Purchaser’s general purchasing terms or other terms and conditions referred to in the purchase order are expressly excluded.

2. Product information. Details about the products in any product information, pricelists and other similar documents or on the website of Company are binding only to the extent a written Sales Contract explicitly refers to the information. The purchaser must determine for itself the products’ suitability for their intended use.

3. Contract formation. Purchase orders shall be made in writing. No Sales Contract shall be deemed in place unless and until Company has issued a written order confirmation. However, if the order confirmation deviates from the purchase order and the purchaser is not willing to accept these deviations, the purchaser must notify Company in writing within seven (7) days from the issuance of the order confirmation. If the purchaser does not notify Company as set out above, a Sales Contract shall be deemed reached in accordance with what is set out in the order confirmation.

4. Delivery. Unless otherwise agreed, the products are sold FCA (Incoterms 2020) the place of delivery set forth in the Sales Contract. In the event Company pays for any freight, special packaging or handling, insurance, tax levies or other fees or charges that are the responsibility of the purchaser, Company may invoice the purchaser therefore. Partial delivery may take place. If the Sales Contract provides for an acceptance test as a condition for delivery, the products are considered delivered if (a) the test is unduly delayed or refused by the purchaser or (b) detected defects are attributable to the purchaser or the end-user or (c) the products are taken into use.

5. Delay in delivery. If Company expects a delay in the delivery of the products, Company will indicate a new delivery date by notice to the purchaser. If the purchaser does not refuse the new delivery date within 7 days after the notice, the new date shall be considered accepted. The purchaser may only cancel the Sales Contract if (a) the new date makes the on-selling or use of the products impossible or severely difficult, and (b) the delay exceeds 30 days.

6. Delay remedies. If the purchaser is entitled to cancel the Sales Contract, the purchaser shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for such direct damages the purchaser shows to have been caused by the delay. The compensation shall not exceed 30% of the purchase price for the delayed delivery. No compensation shall be paid for losses which the purchaser could have avoided by taking reasonable measures to limit them. If the purchaser has not made any claims within 2 months from the original delivery date, all rights of the purchaser to compensation or any other remedy due to late delivery shall be forfeited. Except as provided above, the purchaser is not entitled to any damages or compensation for Company’s delay.

7. Delay in taking delivery. If the purchaser does not take delivery of the products on the agreed date of delivery, the purchaser shall (a) pay for the products as if delivery had taken place and (b) compensate Company for all costs and expenses incurred by Company as a result of the purchaser failing to timely take delivery.

8. Price and Payment. The applicable prices are set forth in the Sales Contract and are net of VAT, other taxes, custom duties and similar levies and charges. Payment term will be detailed in the Sales Contract. Partial invoicing for partial delivery may occur. In the event the purchaser fails to make timely payment, or if such failure is reasonably anticipated, Company is entitled to withhold delivery and/or demand payment in advance as a condition for delivery. In the event the purchaser fails to make timely payment, Company is entitled to charge penalty interest with one percent (1%) per month on any outstanding amount.

9. Warranty. Company warrants that the products upon delivery are in conformance with the agreed product specifications and are free from defects in material and workmanship.

The purchaser may return products only if so requested by Company or as accepted by Company following the purchaser having submitted Company’s “Return Goods Authorization And Feedback” form which can be found at https://www.biotechfluidics.com/return-form (in which case Company’s instructions on packing and transportation mode must be adhered to). Any return of products shall be made at the purchaser’s cost. If the warranty claim is accepted, Company will reimburse the purchaser for the return costs. If the warranty claim is not accepted, a troubleshooting fee will be charged to the purchaser. If a product is found defective under this warranty, Company will be entitled and obliged to deliver free of charge a new product (or a part thereof, if feasible) with
