Default occurs if the customer does not pay within two calendar weeks of receipt of the invoice. Merchants within the meaning of the HGB are obliged to pay appropriate interest from the due date.

Reminder costs will be charged with at least 3.00 euros, unless you can prove lower damage. However, this does not apply to reminders that give rise to default.

In the event that the purchase price is deferred, interest shall be paid on the amount of default interest (see item 3).

§8 SET-OFF AND RIGHT OF RETENTION

The customer is only entitled to set-off if we have recognized the claim or the claim is undisputed or has been legally established.

The request for surrender does not also include the declaration of withdrawal; we are rather entitled to only demand the goods and to reserve the right to withdraw. If the customer does not pay the purchase price due, we may only assert these rights if we have previously unsuccessfully set the customer a reasonable deadline for payment or if such a deadline is dispensable according to the statutory provisions.

In the event of seizures or other interventions by third parties, the customer must notify us immediately in writing so that we can take legal action in accordance with Section 771 ZPO. If the third party is unable to reimburse us for the judicial and extrajudicial costs of a lawsuit in accordance with Section 771 ZPO, the customer is liable for the loss we incur. However, this only applies if these costs are based on the customer's culpable behavior in breach of contract.

The customer is entitled to further use the purchased item in the ordinary course of business.

In this case, the following additional provisions apply:

  • The retention of title extends to the full value of the products resulting from the processing, mixing or combination of our goods, whereby we are considered the manufacturer. If the ownership rights of third parties remain in the event of processing, mixing or combining with goods of third parties, we shall acquire co-ownership in proportion to the invoice values ​​of the processed, mixed or combined goods. In addition, the same applies to the resulting product as to the goods delivered under retention of title.
  • The customer hereby assigns to us the claims against third parties arising from the resale of the goods or the product in total or in the amount of our possible co-ownership share in accordance with the preceding paragraph as security. We accept the assignment.
  • In addition to us, the customer remains authorized to collect the claim. We undertake not to collect the claim as long as the customer fulfills his payment obligations to us, does not fall into arrears, has not filed for insolvency proceedings and there is no other shortcoming in his performance. If this is the case, however, we can demand that the customer notify us of the assigned claims and their debtors, provide all information required for collection, hand over the relevant documents and notify the debtors (third parties) of the assignment.
  • If the realizable value of the securities exceeds our claims by more than 10%, we will release securities of our choice at the customer's request.
