(€)”. Invoicing shall be made in the agreed foreign currency at the exchange rate applicable on the
invoice date. Changes in the exchange rate “foreign currency – EURO (€)” at the time of invoicing
result in a price increase or price reduction.

6. Legal rights of the Buyer to set-off against claims of the Supplier for payment are excluded, except
where the corresponding claim of the Buyer has either been finally judicially determined or recognized
by the Supplier in writing.

7. Unless otherwise agreed, payments shall be made within thirty (30) days after the date of invoice. All

only entitled to demand a reduction of the Price in proportion to the reduced value of the Goods.

5. When a defect in a part of the Goods has been remedied, the Supplier shall be liable for defects in
the repaired or replaced part under the same terms and conditions as those applicable to the Goods
for a period of 12 months. For the remaining parts of the Goods, the warranty period shall be extended
only by a period equal to the period during which the Goods have been out of operation as a result
of the defect.

6. The period of liability for defects will be 12 months from the date of commissioning, based on 1-shift
working time per day or maximum 18 months from the date of delivery respectively of the date of
readiness for delivery, whichever comes first.

7. The rights and remedies of the Buyer set forth in this warranty clause are exclusive and in lieu of any
and all other warranties. This limitation of liability does not apply in the event of gross negligence or
willful misconduct by the Supplier.

IX. Limitation of Liability:

1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Contract, the Supplier shall in no event and
irrespective of the legal basis (contract, tort, indemnity or any other area of law) be liable to the Buyer
for loss of profit or revenue, wasted overhead, loss of production, loss of use, cost of capital, cost of
substitute goods and any damage, expenditure or loss arising from such damage, any incidental,
indirect or consequential damage or any of the foregoing suffered by any third party.

2. The Parties agree that the Supplier maximum liability, for whatever legal reason, will not exceed fifty
percent (50%) of the net value of all Service invoices under this Contract, but at least twenty-five
thousand Euros (25.000 EURO).

3. The limitations of liability in this Article shall not apply in the case of intent, gross negligence or in
case of bodily injury or death to persons culpably caused by an act or omission attributable to the
Supplier or insofar mandatory law provides otherwise (e.g. under the Product Liability Act).

X. Patent Infringement:

1. Supplier shall be liable for any infringement of patents, licenses or protective rights of third parties
existing at the date of Contract signing that result from the supply or use of the Goods to Buyer.

2. Should intellectual property rights be infringed, the Supplier will take over all court and lawyer’s fees
incurred by the Buyer to avert a dispute on industrial property rights with a Third Party. Further claims
and rights on the part of the Buyer are excluded. The Buyer is obliged to immediately inform the
Supplier about any infringement of industrial property rights. The procedure of averting a dispute on
industrial property rights with a Third Party has to be amicably agreed by the Supplier and the BUYER
in advance.

XI. Software and Property Rights:

1. The Supplier retains all rights to all documentation, in particular drawings, technical documents and
software. The Buyer acknowledges these rights and shall not make such designs, drawings,
documents and software available to any Third Party, either in whole or in part, nor use them for any
purposes other than the agreed purposes without prior written authorization by the Supplier.

2. As far as in case of order software is part of the Goods the Supplier grants to the Buyer the non-
exclusive right for the use of the software including its appropriate documentation. It is supplied for
use only on the Goods for which it is agreed. A use of the software on more than one system is not
permitted. The Buyer has the right to duplicate or revise the software only to the legally permissible
extent. The Buyer commits himself not to remove or to change manufacturer’s data – in particular
copyright notes - without prior explicit approval of the Supplier. Any and all other rights in the software
and the documentation including copies remain with the Supplier and/or with the software Supplier.
The assignment of sublicenses is not permissible.

XII. Applicable Law and Arbitration:

1. The law governing this Contract shall be the Swiss substantive law.

2. The Parties will endeavour that any dispute or difference which may arise from or in connection with
the contract will be settled amicably and in mutual agreement. Should a mutual agreement not be
possible, any dispute or difference arising out of or in connection with the contract or its validity shall

Page 21 of 22
be finally settled under the Rules of Conciliation and Arbitration of the International Chamber of
Commerce, by an Arbitration Tribunal of three Arbitrators nominated according to these rules. The
arbitration tribunal shall meet in Zurich/Switzerland. The language for arbitration proceedings shall
be English. The decision of the Arbitration Tribunal shall be binding for both Parties.

XIII. Miscellaneous Provisions:

1. Buyer and Supplier shall obtain the written consent of the other Party prior to the assignment to a
third party of all or any part of its rights, benefits or obligations under this Contract.

2. For all items, the Supplier shall be entitled to select sub suppliers worldwide. However, the Supplier
shall be responsible to the Buyer for the proper performance of the Contract in all respects.

3. In the event of ”Force Majeure” the agreed contractual periods will prolong themselves by the period
of ”Force Majeure” without the Parties being able to assert mutual claims. The Party claiming to be
affected by Force Majeure is obliged to plausibly prove the event of
”Force Majeure”. The following events – included but not limited to - are accepted as
”Force Majeure”: Natural disasters, warlike events, mobilization, sabotage, terrorism, strike, lockouts,
influence of the weather, accidents happening during transportation, erection, i.e. all those things
which could by no means be foreseen or prevented by the Party claiming to be affected by Force
Majeure. Should the case “Force Majeure” last longer than 6 months, both Parties will meet in the
short term to arrive at a mutual agreement for the continuation of the contract.

4. In case the Goods include Services, the Parties will agree to the terms and conditions of the Services
in a separate contract.

XIV. Severability clause

Should any provision of these General Conditions be invalid or become ineffective or invalid at a later
date, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected. In this case both Parties agree to
the insertion of a replacement provision, which is as close as possible to the economic interests of
the invalid provision and the arrangement originally intended by the Parties hereto, in place of the
invalid provision.
