These Delivery and Sales Conditions are valid also when we in knowledge of contrary or divergent conditions of the Customer/Purchaser carry out the delivery or performance without reservation.

1. Decisive for the delivery content and delivery scope of the goods and services is our written Order Confirmation. Other agreements and changes need to be confirmed in written form.
2. The delivery time is confirmed in the Order Confirmation. Delivery time and delivery dead lines are without obligation, as far as they are not expressly and written down within the contract
   documents and hereby as definite promise confirmed.
3. The delivery time limit starts with the date of our Order Confirmation, however not before clarification of all commercial and technical questions, not before the Customer/Purchaser supplied KS-Control with all necessary documents, authorizations, sample material and measuring devices and not before the receipt of the down payment, which was agreed by the contract and confirmed by the Order Confirmation. In case the Customer/Purchaser fails to fulfil his contractual duties in due time, the delivery time will extend in accordance.
4. The delivery time can be delayed through force majeure (act of God) or other reasons, which are not under KS-Control’s responsibility, (for example demonstrations/labour disputes,
   company breakdowns through no one’s fault, delayed or wrong deliveries of sub-suppliers, administrative directions) In thiscase, KS-Control will inform in due time the Customer/Purchaser
   about the new delivery date.
5. For additional belated orders or changes of the contract the originally confirmed Delivery time is no longer valid and needs to be newly agreed to and confirmed.
6. The delivery time is considered as being kept, as soon as the delivery item has left the KS-Control plant or the Customer/Purchaser is informed about the dispatch readiness.
7. In case the Customer/Purchaser causes a delay for the acceptance or the despatch of goods is delayed due to the Customer’s request or the Pre-Acceptance is delayed due to the Customer’s request or by his responsibility (blame) so KS-Control is entitled – starting one month after the announcement of delivery- i.e. pre-acceptance readiness to charge the costs, which appear for the warehousing, by storage at KS-Control; however KS-Control is entitled to charge at least 0,5 % of the stored part’s delivery value for each month. KS-Control is authorized to dispose/use the delivery good otherwise after a unsuccessful appropriate extension to time, to deliver to the Customer/Purchaser within a appropriate extended period of time or to withdraw from the contract.
8. Unless otherwise written in the Order Confirmation all deliveries are carried out ex works (EXW) KS-Control GmbH, Mintraching (in accordance to the Incoterms 2010). In case the transfer to the carrier is delayed caused by circumstances which are upon the Customer/Purchaser’s responsibility, the risk is passed over to the Customer/Purchaser with the day of the forwarding readiness.

Is delivery delay caused by KS-Control – pre-condition hereto is a adequate acceptance of the delay by the Customer/Purchaser of at least 20 working days so is a claim/right of the Customer/Purchaser impossible in case of a minor carelessness/negligence.

Already herewith the Customer/Purchaser
   assures his approval that KS-Control or KS-Control’s representatives or agents have the right at any time to set foot on their properties and their rooms in which our goods are assumed to be and can be collected.

2. By withdrawal or i.e. seizure of the goods of reservation an automatic withdrawal of the contract without written declaration of KS-Control is not carried out. The application to open an insolvency process at the Customer/Purchaser entitles KS-Control to withdraw from the contract and to ask to return the delivery objects immediately.
3. The Customer/Purchaser is not allowed to pawn nor to transfer as securities the delivery object unless payment was done completely. In case of seizure or other intervention of third parties the Customer/Purchaser needs to inform KS-Control immediately in written form, so that KS-Control can make complaints (institute proceedings) in accordance to §771 ZPO.
