When the client refuses to grant the conditions of these general terms and conditions, our firm has the right to consider contracts with the client to be dissolved without any judicial intervention and without preliminary formal notice, without any duty to reimbursement. This condition applies also when during the execution of the contract, the financial situation of the client changes to such a degree that one has to fear for insolvency, for the loss of guarantees to this debt-recovery or when the client is stated bankrupt.

If our firm decides to resign the agreement in accordance with the general conditions, our firm reserves the right to claim back the merchandise. The entire invoice price plus interests, costs and lump sum damages are to be paid by the client, indeed after deduction of an amount equal to the actual value of the goods withdrawn.

The work is charged as determined in the agreement. In case nothing has been determined, the work will be charged as the deliveries or the work proceed.

In case of non-payment of the debt at the due date, by force of law and without formal notice, an interest of 1% a month on the claimable amount is indebted.

When a specific invoice has not been paid by the expiry date, the due balance of all other invoices, even those which have not yet passed their expiry dates, may be legally claimed. Failure to pay by the expiry date and, in general, all failures of the customer to meet his obligations, gives us the legal right to suspend all other orders, without having to pay an indemnity to the purchaser.

The client admits that this reservation of title has been notified and accepted by him before delivery of the goods. Having regard to the reservation of title, it is illegitimate to the client to transfer, pledge, encumber or dispose in any other way about the sold goods, before full payment and this under penalty of extra indemnity on a flat rate basis, equal to the half of the price of the delivered goods. If the customer passes, in spite of this reservation title, on to alienation to a third party, the customer cedes his debt to compensation of the price of the alienation as a certainty for our firm.
