LOCINOX GENERAL CONDITIONS OF SALE

1. General
Except for other written agreements, these general sales conditions are appropriate to all quotations made by Locinox, every closed agreement between Locinox and the customer, all invoices made by Locinox and this without regard to the residence or legal seat of the customer irrespective of where the delivery must be carried out.
The general sales conditions of the customer are only valid if they were accepted in writing and explicitly by Locinox.
At contradiction between eventually accepted general purchase conditions and the current general sales conditions of Locinox this last one is valid, even if the purchase conditions of the customer stipulates the opposite or if these have been communicated later.

2. Quotations

All quotations, verbal or in writing, are entirely without engagement, unless it has been explicitly stipulated differently in written.
If certain costs, having an influence on the agreed price, increase due to circumstances independently of the will of Locinox, Locinox has the right, by simple notification, to increase in the price accordingly.

3. Orders

Orders accepted by representatives or middle-agents of Locinox only binds Locinox after a written order confirmation. Cancellations of orders by the customer can only be accepted in written and under the following conditions explained in the paragraph below. An order can be cancelled free of charge within 1h of the order  confirmation or provided Locinox has not started with the execution of the order.

In any other case, the customer is indebted of 20% of the selling price of goods. When a commencement of the order has been taken place, all generated costs, beside before-mentioned fixed indemnifications will also be recovered on the customer. Locinox has the right to modify or stop at any time any offered product or product range due to production requirements, demand alterations, production optimalisation,…

4. Delivery

A. Except for other written agreements, the general delivery conditions are "ex works". Consequently Locinox meets his obligations when ordered goods are put at the disposal of the customer in the commercial property of Locinox. The customer can always choose to let himself be represented. If the goods are not collected on the delivery date by the customer, for any reason whatsoever, Locinox has the right to store the goods in its own premises at costs and risks on the customer's behalf (including fire risk) or choose to store at third parties. After a period of 30 days and after a written notification to the customer, Locinox has the right to sell the ordered goods to a third party without exemption of payment obligations and possible damage duty of the customer.
B. The agreed delivery terms are not binding. Exceeding the delivery deadline can not give cause to any responsibility of Locinox, nor could be a ground to dissolute any agreement.

5. Lacks - Complaints

A. Complaints due to visible damages or defaults, under penalty of non-receivable, must be communicated by the customer to Locinox by means of a registered letter at the latest five days after the supplying date of goods. If Locinox have not received a written complaint of the purchaser after this period, the purchaser is considered to have accepted goods.
B. Complaints due to hidden defaults, under penalty of non-receivable, must be communicated by the customer to Locinox by means of a registered letter at the latest eight days after the discovery of the lack and at the latest thirty six months after the supplying date of the goods. In any case each claim concerning hidden defaults, will expire after a period of four months after the legal notification to Locinox. Parties agree that in case of a complaint concerning hidden defaults from goods provided by Locinox, these hidden defaults must be determined in a contradictory manner between the parties, if not, Locinox can not be held responsible.
C. In any case, no more complaints can be accepted due to visible and/or hidden defaults if supplied goods have been handled/modified or treated. The protection duty of Locinox is only valid if all provided Locinox components or finished products were delivered by Locinox and were only used for the purposes for which these goods are designed by their nature and this according to the instruction data-sheet of the product.
D. In case of an acceptable and founded complaint concerning defaults to goods, Locinox has the choice to replace the concerned product without costs, or to refund the Locinox purchase price against a return delivery of the faulty product, or to propose a price-reduction determined by Locinox according to the nature of the default.
E. Return deliveries can only be accepted after a written authorization by Locinox and this authorization includes by no means recognition of its liability. The return delivery is organised in any case at the expense of the customer.
F. A complaint can never relieve a customer of the obligation to pay the amount of the invoices at the determined due data of the agreement and according to the stipulated conditions. A complaint, even if valid, does not authorize the customer to refuse the implementation of the agreement for goods which are not subject of this complaint.
G. The circumstance that supplied goods would not be appropriate for the use aimed by the customer can under no circumstance be used as a reason for a receptive and founded complaint. Locinox gives no explicit or implicit guarantee to this point.

7. Acceptance invoice - payment

Every invoice is considered as accepted by the customer, unless a registered letter is received by Locinox within the eight days after the reception of the invoice by the customer. All invoices are payable on the social seat of Locinox. The payment by transfer, bill of exchange or by any other manner can not be considered as a renunciation to this stipulation and can not imply any renewal of the debt. The payment must be in cash, without discount and in euro, except for other written agreements. All costs of payment are at the expense of the customer. All collection- and all contestation-costs regarding accepted or refused bills of exchange are fully at the expense of the customer.
At full or partial non-payment on the due date, the open invoices will produce, by right and without a preceding notice of default, a charge (default interests) of 12% per year. Furthermore, the remaining open balance will be raised after an unfruitful notice of default by 15% of the invoiced amount and this with a minimum of 125 EUR, even in case of prolongation of the payment delay.
The non-payment on the due date of a single invoice makes the due balance of all other, even non-overdue invoices, by right, immediately collectable.

8. Reservation of ownership

Goods provided by Locinox to the customer remain the property of Locinox up to the moment that all due amounts have been paid by the customer to Locinox, including all interests and costs. The customer gives Locinox - or its mandatary - the permission to enter its premises and buildings, in order to regain property of the goods. The customer engages himself to inform the seller immediately in case of seizure on the Locinox goods in its hands.
As long as goods are not paid entirely, the customer is prohibited to process, to sell, to pledge these or to use these in another manner such as certainties.
The customer transfers unconditionally and irrevocable to Locinox; all potential claims on third parties, regarding sales of goods that are the property of Locinox,
The advances already paid by the customer remain acquired by Locinox as a compensation for possible losses at resale.

9. Varia

All disputes between the customer and Locinox fall under the exclusive competence of the competent courts of the judicial district of the social seat of Locinox. The relation between the customer and Locinox is exclusively governed by the Belgian right. The possible nullity of one or more stipulations of these conditions does not affect the relevance of all other clauses. In case of arguments concerning the interpretation of these conditions, the English text always prevails.
