4.4 Zeliox will be authorised to engage third parties in order to perform the Agreement.

5.3 If any data necessary for the performance of the Agreement are not made available to Zeliox (or are not made available to it in time or in accordance with the agreements), Zeliox will be entitled to charge the costs incurred as a result and to suspend the performance of the Agreement.

6. DESIGNS AND SAMPLES

8. DELIVERY PERIOD

8.1 Unless agreed otherwise, delivery is effected ex factory/works in Geldrop.

8.3 If the delivery time is exceeded, this will not result in any default or liability on the part of Zeliox. Zeliox will immediately notify the Buyer of any delay in delivery and will inform the Buyer of the new delivery time.

8.4 The delivery period will commence at the following times, whichever is the latest:

8.5 If the period within which delivery is to be effected is expressed in days, a day will be understood to be a working day, not being a day of rest (Saturday or Sunday) or a public holiday.

9. STANDARD DELIVERY

9.1. The time at which the Products are made available to the Buyer ex factory/works is considered to be the time of delivery and the time when the risk with respect to the Products passes from Zeliox to the Buyer. This will apply in full if the Buyer refuses or fails to take delivery of the Products.

9.2 If the Buyer has not taken delivery of the Products after the delivery period has expired, the Products will be stored for the Buyer at the Buyer’s risk and expense. Zeliox will make the Products available to the Buyer only after additional costs of transport and storage have been paid by the Buyer. If the Products have not been collected by the Buyer 30 days after the original delivery, Zeliox will have the right to dissolve the Agreement, to resell the Products or to destroy them at the Buyer’s expense. The Buyer will be unable to bring any action against Zeliox in this respect.

9.3 A consignment note, delivery note or similar document provided upon delivery of the Products will serve as proof of delivery of the Products mentioned therein.

9.4 Zeliox is permitted to deliver Products that are part of the Agreement in consignments (partial deliveries). This does not apply if a partial delivery has no independent value. If the goods are delivered in consignments, Zeliox will be authorised to draw up a separate invoice for each consignment.

10. DELIVERY

10.1 Delivery to an address to be specified by the Buyer in derogation of the preceding article will be effected only if the Parties have agreed in advance on the additional costs involved and the conditions applicable.

10.2 The costs of delivery will be stated separately by Zeliox at the time of conclusion of the Agreement. If this is not possible, Zeliox will provide the Buyer with information that will allow the Buyer to calculate the shipping costs.

10.3 The manner of packaging, transport, shipment and suchlike will, if the Buyer has not given Zeliox any further instructions, be determined by Zeliox, without, however, Zeliox accepting any liability in this respect, other than its legal obligation to pay compensation.

10.4 In the case of delivery by Zeliox or a carrier designated by it, the risk of the Products will pass to the Buyer at the time of delivery. This will also apply if delivery is unsuccessful.

10.5 In the case of delivery by a carrier designated by the Buyer, the risk of the Products will already pass to the Buyer as soon as Zeliox hands over the Products to this designated carrier.

11. PRICES

11.1 The prices and quotations of Zeliox are guiding, subject to any price changes. Prices as stated on the website are subject to typing errors or price changes (that have not yet been implemented).

11.2 The prices charged by Zeliox are (in principle):

11.3 If, after the formation of the Agreement, but before the full or partial performance of the Agreement, there are any increases in cost determinants of Zeliox, including changes in material and raw material prices, transport prices, exchange rates and currencies, Zeliox will be entitled to increase the price due by a proportional percentage.

11.4 If an Agreement is concluded with a Buyer who is a Consumer, Zeliox will inform the Buyer immediately of any price increases, as described in the preceding paragraph, which are implemented by Zeliox within three months of the formation of the Agreement, the Buyer who is a Consumer being granted the right to dissolve the Agreement.

11.5 The Buyer cannot derive any rights from discounts given by Zeliox in the past.

12. PAYMENT

12.1 Unless expressly agreed otherwise and in writing, payment must be made in advance, but no later than 30 days of the invoice date, in a manner to be indicated by Zeliox and in the currency in which the invoice was made.

12.2 Any payments made by the Buyer will always first be applied to settle all costs and interest payable and then to settle the longest outstanding invoices that are due and payable, even if the Buyer states that the payment relates to a later invoice.

12.3 Zeliox will always have the right to (as yet) demand advance payment or security for payment from the Buyer, with which demand the Buyer must comply immediately.

12.4 If a Buyer who is not a Consumer and who acts under a Trade Agreement fails to make payment within the set period, this Buyer will automatically be in default and will have to pay Zeliox interest equal to the statutory commercial interest as provided for in Article 119a of Book 6 of the Dutch Civil Code and all extrajudicial costs of collection of the claim, which extrajudicial costs are set at at least 15% of the amount due, including interest, with a minimum of € 250.00.

12.5 If a Buyer who is not a Consumer and who acts under a Trade Agreement fails to meet its payment obligations because it is unwilling or unable to pay, Zeliox will be entitled to suspend the deliveries or dissolve the Agreement, without prejudice to its right to claim full compensation. Unlike Zeliox, a Buyer who is not a Consumer and who acts under a Trade Agreement has no right of set-off. If a claim is disputed, a Buyer who is not a Consumer and who acts under a Trade Agreement will not be authorised to suspend its payment obligations towards Zeliox.

12.6 If a Buyer who is a Consumer fails to make payment within the period set and this Buyer remains in default of payment of the amount due to Zeliox within the period set, Zeliox will send the Buyer who is a Consumer a Written notice of default, stating:
12.7 If no payment is made within the 14-day period as referred to in the preceding paragraph, the Buyer who is a Consumer will be in default and Zeliox will be entitled to compensation for extrajudicial costs in accordance with the Extrajudicial Collection Costs Scale, with a minimum amount of € 40.00. From that moment onwards, Zeliox will also be entitled to compensation for statutory interest pursuant to Article 119 of Book 6 of the Dutch Civil Code.

12.8 All outstanding claims that Zeliox has against the Buyer will be immediately due and payable if the Buyer is in default and in the event of: liquidation, bankruptcy or an application for bankruptcy, the Buyer’s admission to statutory debt restructuring pursuant to the Debt Restructuring (Natural Persons) Act, if the Buyer is put under guardianship, if the Buyer’s assets are attached or if the Buyer is granted a provisional or definitive moratorium.

13. SUSPENSION / DISSOLUTION

13.1 The provisions included in this article will apply only if Zeliox signs a contract with a Buyer who is not a Consumer, and the relationship between the Parties is governed by a Trading Agreement.

13.2 Zeliox is entitled to dissolve or suspend all or part of the Agreement in writing with immediate effect, without a notice of default and without judicial intervention and without being obliged to pay any compensation, and without prejudice to Zeliox’ right to demand performance instead of a dissolution or suspension and without prejudice to its right to compensation, if:

13.3 If Zeliox dissolves or suspends the Agreement pursuant to this article, any claim that Zeliox has against the Buyer will be immediately due and payable.

14. RETENTION OF TITLE

14.1 All Products delivered by Zeliox remain the property of Zeliox until the Buyer has met all obligations under the Agreement.

14.2 The Buyer is not authorised to sell, pledge or otherwise encumber the Products covered by the retention of title.

14.3 In the event that third parties attach the items delivered subject to retention of title or wish to create or assert any rights thereon, the Buyer will be required to notify Zeliox as soon as may reasonably be expected.

14.4 The Buyer must store the Products delivered subject to retention of title with due care and as identifiable property of Zeliox.

14.5 As long as the Buyer retains any Products to which Zeliox can exercise its retention of title, the Buyer will be obliged to surrender the Products to Zeliox at the first request of Zeliox and without any judicial intervention being required. Zeliox and its employees will then be entitled to enter the premises of the Buyer in order to gain actual possession of the delivered Products at the Buyer’s expense.

14.6 The Buyer undertakes to insure the interests of Zeliox in connection with the retention of title. The Buyer undertakes to compensate for this interest in the event of a calamity and to assign its claim against its insurers to Zeliox at the latter’s first request. At Zeliox’ first request, the Buyer will provide the details of the insurance company/companies concerned and the insurance conditions.

14.7 In dealings with Zeliox, the Buyer will have no right of retention to the Products delivered by Zeliox.

15. WARRANTY AND COMPLAINTS

15.1 Zeliox warrants that the Products delivered by it are in a sound condition and in accordance with the Buyer’s reasonable expectations under the Agreement, for the following period and subject to the following conditions.

15.2 Zeliox offers the Buyer a maximum warranty period of 1 year after the moment of delivery, unless the Parties have agreed otherwise in writing.

15.3 The warranty period will not be extended by work carried out under the warranty and/or replacement deliveries under the warranty.

15.4 The Buyer will only be entitled to warranty offered by Zeliox if the Buyer has met all its payment obligations towards Zeliox.

15.5 The Buyer is obliged to check the conformity of Zeliox products immediately upon delivery.

15.6 Any of the Buyer’s complaints about the failure of the Products delivered by Zeliox to comply with the Agreement and any resulting claims under the warranty will be handled by Zeliox only if and insofar as these complaints are submitted in writing to Zeliox within a reasonable period of time, specifying the nature of the defect. For a Buyer who is not a Consumer and who acts under a Trading Agreement, 48 hours after delivery will be considered a reasonable period of time. For a Buyer who is a Consumer, a maximum period of 2 months after the Buyer has discovered or should reasonably have discovered the defect is considered to be a reasonable period of time. If a complaint is not submitted in time, any claim against Zeliox will lapse.

15.7 Any complaints with respect to the quantity of Products delivered and damage caused during transport are to be recorded in the consignment note and/or delivery note immediately, failing which the quantities stated in the consignment note and/or delivery note will constitute conclusive evidence against the Buyer.

15.8 Any complaints with respect to quantities, volumes and/or product types incorrectly ordered by the Buyer will not be accepted by Zeliox.

15.9 Complaints will not be handled any further if:

15.10 Upon receipt of a claim under the warranty, Zeliox will enter into discussions with the Buyer as soon as possible, after which the Buyer will allow Zeliox to inspect (or have a third party inspect) the Products if desired and Zeliox will give a definite answer regarding the applicability of the warranty in the case in question. The Buyer will be required to keep the Products to which a complaint relates at the disposal of Zeliox, at the risk of forfeiting all rights to performance, repair, dissolution and/or compensation.

15.11 If Zeliox concludes that no claim can be made under the warranty, it will inform the Buyer of this as soon as possible. The costs of the inspection referred to in the preceding paragraph may then be passed on to the Buyer.

15.12 If a complaint proves to be founded, Zeliox will, in principle, repair or replace the Products within a reasonable period of time. Only if repair or replacement is not possible or cannot be required of Zeliox will the Buyer be authorised to:

15.13 A Buyer who makes a claim under the warranty will not be allowed to remedy the defect on its own initiative and/or have the defect remedied by a party of its choice. If the Buyer does decide to have the defect remedied by a party of its choice, the Buyer’s warranty will lapse immediately.

15.14 Any complaints about the prices charged and other complaints about invoices must be submitted to Zeliox in writing within a reasonable period of no more than 8 days after the invoice date, along with a description of the nature of the complaint. Any late complaints about the prices charged and invoices will not be accepted.

15.15 A successful claim under the warranty will never result in any right other than a right of repair, replacement or crediting as referred to in preceding paragraphs. Such claim under the warranty will not result in any liability on the part of Zeliox for and/or its obligation to compensate for direct or indirect damage or loss suffered, unless in case of intent or deliberate recklessness on the part of Zeliox.

15.16 Any defects relating to a part of the Products delivered will not give the Buyer any right to reject or refuse the entire batch of Products delivered.

15.17 After having discovered a defect in a Product, the Buyer will be obliged to make every possible effort to prevent or limit damage, expressly including any immediate cessation of use and processing.

15.18 No warranty will be given in respect of advice given by Zeliox and inspections and similar operations carried out by Zeliox.

Zeliox’ liability will in any case be limited to the cover provided by its insurance policy.

18.2 Zeliox will not be liable for indirect damage or loss, expressly including but not limited to: trading loss, loss of profit, consequential loss, loss due to business interruption, immaterial damage, financial loss and personal injury, including all possible claims of third parties, in the broadest sense.

19.2 All intellectual property rights relating to Zeliox Products, but also other items, designs, working methods, models, images, drawings, photographs, prototypes, printed matter, files and suchlike, are vested exclusively in Zeliox, irrespective of the share of the Buyer (or of third parties engaged by Buyer) in the creation thereof.

19.3 The exercise of the aforementioned intellectual property rights - publication, transfer, reproduction - is explicitly and exclusively reserved for Zeliox during and after the performance of the Agreement.

20. FORCE MAJEURE

20.1 Zeliox will not be liable for delays or breaches of the Agreement if these delays or breaches are the result of force majeure and therefore cannot be attributed to Zeliox.

20.2 Zeliox undertakes to inform the Buyer of a situation of force majeure as soon as possible.

20.3 A non-attributable breach on the part of Zeliox is understood to be any circumstance beyond the control of Zeliox - even if it was already foreseeable at the time of conclusion of the Agreement - which makes it permanently or temporarily impossible to perform the Agreement, which will in any case include, but will not be limited to:

20.4 During the situation of force majeure, Zeliox will be entitled to suspend its obligations.

20.5 If a situation of force majeure of a temporary (more than 3 months) or permanent nature prevents Zeliox from performing the Agreement (or performing the Agreement any further), it will be entitled to dissolve the Agreement without judicial intervention and without being obliged to pay any compensation.

20.6. If Zeliox has already met part of its obligations in the event of force majeure, the Buyer will have to pay Zeliox the price due for this part.

21. TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

21.1 If the items to be delivered in the Netherlands will be used outside the Netherlands, Zeliox will not be responsible for the items to be delivered meeting the technical requirements, standards and/or regulations set by local laws or stipulations of the country where the items will be used.
