2. The Supplier shall accept in writing our order within a period of 3 (three) business days of receipt (order confirmation); otherwise, we may freely revoke the order without any further obligation on our part. Should the order confirmation deviate from the actual order, we shall be bound to such deviation only if the Supplier makes express reference thereto and we consent to the deviation in writing. The acceptance of goods or services and payments by us shall not constitute consent.

§ 3 Prices and Payment
1. The agreed prices are fixed prices. Subsequent price increases, including those due to increased labour or material costs, shall be excluded.

§ 4 Delivery Time and Delivery
1. The agreed delivery time shall be binding and strictly adhered to. The timeliness of deliveries shall be determined by the time of receipt at the point of receipt stipulated by BESTAIR. The timeliness of deliveries requiring installation and/or assembly and of other services shall be determined when they are ready for acceptance. BESTAIR shall be notified without undue delay in the event of an identified delay in a delivery or service stating the reasons therefor and the foreseeable duration and a decision by BESTAIR's shall be obtained; the statutory rights to which we are entitled for late delivery or services shall remain unaffected thereby.

In the event of force majeure, stoppages or disruptions, in particular, strikes or other unforeseeable events for which we are not responsible and that make acceptance or use of the goods/service at our business or at our customer's impossible or considerably more difficult, our obligation to take acceptance shall be reasonably postponed in accordance with our actual needs. If acceptance is delayed as a result by more than 8 (eight) weeks, we may also at our discretion rescind the contract, in whole or in part (based on the quantity affected by the delay).

§ 5 Passing of Risk, Acquisition of Title
1. The risk of accidental damage or accidental destruction (loss) to the delivery shall pass only upon receipt at the place of receipt stipulated by us. This shall apply even if we have stated that we are prepared to assume shipping costs.

In this respect, we shall then without undue delay complain to the Supplier concerning any ascertainable defects and/orquantitative differences. We shall without undue delay after discovery complain aboutanylatent defects, such as those that can only be ascertained during the processing process, material processing or pre-processing for manufacturing. Should we receive a so-called acceptance inspection certificate from our Supplier, in which the Supplier states that the delivered goods meet the agreed (quality) criteria, our duty to inspect the goods and file a complaint shall be limited to an inspection to ascertain that the packaging is intact and the numberof packages is complete upon acceptance of the goods. Otherwise such duty shall be deemed excluded.

2. We shall be entitled to statutory warranty claims without limitation. In particular, our claims to reimbursement for expenses and compensatory damages shall not be limited or excluded in terms of the grounds therefor or their quantum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BESTAIR may demand that the Supplier at its expense first render subsequent performance, i.e. at our discretion remedy the defect, supply goods in a perfect condition or provide defect-free services. Section 439 paragraph 3 BGB shall remain unaffected. Moreover, we may, at the Supplier's expense, remedy the defect ourselves in the event of impending danger or special urgency.

3. Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing in a specific case, the statutory provisionsshall apply to the limitations period for warranty claims. Our claims under rights of recourse pursuant to §§ 478, 479 BGB shall remain unaffected.

2. Should third parties assert claims against BESTAIR of any kind, whatever the legal basis therefore, based on a defect or a fault in the delivered goods and/or the service provided, the Supplier shall indemnify us against such claim if and to the extent that the cause thereof lies in its control or organisation. In this context, the Supplier shall also reimburse us any and all expenses incurred by us as a result of us having to mount a defence against such claims, and any and all other expenses incurred by us in this connection, including expenses associated with any recalls or similar (precautionary) measures. Any other statutory claims shall remain unaffected.

2. During the contract term and thereafter, the Supplier shall keep strictly confidential the aforementioned documents and any and allother technical and/or business information and our know-how marked "confidential" or (orally) identified as confidential or that, given its nature (taking into account the legal concept of business and trade secrets), must be regarded as confidential, and that is entrusted to it or disclosed to it in association with performance and settlement of an order. Moreover, the Supplier shall use such information solely for purposes of the respective contract and shall impose equivalent obligationsupon its employees, suppliers, sub-contractors and other third parties to whom such documentsor information or know-how are disclosed. The foregoing obligations shall not apply, however, to information or know-how of which the Supplier had knowledge when it obtained such information or know-how, which forms part of the technological state of the art which isin the public domain, or which is subsequently disclosed without any fault on its part.

Any rights of retention on the part of the Supplier shall be excluded, unless they are based on counterclaims that have been recognised by us or confirmed in a final and binding judgment.

4. The Supplier shall use the ProductionMaterials exclusively for manufacturing goods ordered by BESTAIR. Moreover, the Supplier shall at its own expense take out any and all necessary insurance policies to protect the Production Materials owned by BESTAIR, and shall insure them in an adequate amountat the replacement value, in particular, against loss, fire, water, theft, burglary, explosion, lightening strike, storm and other damage attributable to the elements and that may typically be covered by property insurance.

Moreover, the delivery deadline shall be extended by any period during which the Customer itself is late in performing its contractual duties.

If special instructions from the Customer must be awaited for shipping, risk shall passto the Customer upon notification that the goods are ready for shipment. Risk shall also pass upon notification that the goods are ready for shipment if shipment is then delayed or becomes impossible without any fault on our part.

§ 6 Complaints for Defects, Liability for Defects

Information concerning the delivered goods or services (e.g. in catalogues, product information, electronic media or on labels) is based on our general experience and knowledge, and constitute only guidelines or identification marks (Kennzeichen). Neither such product information nor expressly agreed performance features/purposes of use shall discharge the Customer from its obligation to test the product for its suitability for the intended purpose.

3. Any liability for defects shall lapse if our operating and maintenance instructionsare not followed, modifications are performed, parts are changed or materials are used with the goods that do not conform with the original specifications, provided the defect is based thereon. The same shall apply if the defect can be attributed to improper use, storage and handling of the products or third party interference therewith.

4. Our liability for defects shall be limited to subsequent performance, i.e. the Customer's right to demand at its discretion rectification of the defect or delivery of an item in a perfect condition at our expense; § 439 paragraph 3 BGB shall remain unaffected. Should for whatever reason subsequent performance fail following a reasonable grace period , the Customer may at its discretion demand reduction of the purchase price or rescind the contract; in this event subject to the provisions of § 7 the right to assert compensatory damages or reimbursement of fruitless expenses shall remain unaffected.

In the event of ordinary negligence, any liability on our part shall be excluded. This exclusion of liability shall not apply if we, our statutory representatives or vicarious agents violate a material contractual duty. In this event, however, the quantum of any compensatory damages or reimbursement of expenses shall be limited to the damages/expenses that BESTAIR would typically have had to expect based on the circumstances known to it as at the date of conclusion of the agreement and that were therefore foreseeable at such time, provided no wilful or grossly negligent conduct has occurred.

3. The liability provisions set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2 shall also apply to instructions and suggestions for use.

4. Should our liability be excluded or limited pursuant to the foregoing provisions, this shall also apply to the personal liability of our employees, workers, representatives and vicarious agents.

If the goods are connected or inseparably combined with other items not owned by us, we shall acquire co-ownership in the new item according to the ratio of the value of the purchased item subject (final invoice amountplus value added tax) to the other connected or combined items as at the time of connection or combination.

The Customer shall store the relevant items for us free of charge with the care of an ordinary businessman. Should the goods created as a result of the connection or combination be resold, the advance assignment agreed to below shall apply only in an amount equivalent to the value of the goods subject to the retention of title.

3. The Customer may process and/or sell the goods subject to the retention of title during the ordinary course of business, provided the Customer is not in default. Pledges or transfer by way of security shall not be permitted. The Customer hereby assigns to us by way of security and in full (including value added tax) any receivables arising as a result of resale or for other legal grounds (insurance, tortious conduct) in relation to the goods subject to the retention of title (including any and all receivables on account (Saldoforderungen) from the current account. We hereby accept such assignment. Subject to revocation, we authorise the Customer to collect the receivables assigned to us for the Customer's account and in the Customer's name. However, the authorisation to collect such receivables may be revoked only if the Customer does not properly meet its payment obligations. In this event, we may demand that the Customer disclose to us the assigned receivables and the relevant debtors, provide any information required for collection thereof, furnish the associated documentation and notify the debtors of the assignment.

4. Should third parties interfere with the goods subject to the retention of title, the Customer shall indicate our title in the goods and notify such parties without undue delay. Moreover, the Customer shall also notify us in order that, where applicable, we may file a (third party) action against execution pursuant to § 771 of the German Code of Civil Procedure ("ZPO"). Should the third party be unable to reimburse us the judicial and extra-judicial costs of an action pursuant to § 771 ZPO, the Customer shall be liable for any loss incurred by us in this respect.

5. Should the Customer default in payment or should it culpably fail to meet other material contractual obligations, we may repossessthe goods subject to the retention of title or, where applicable, demand assignment of the Customer's claims for possession against third parties. Should we repossess the goods subject to the retention of title, this shall notconstitute rescission of the contract, unless we expressly declare same.

6. Should the realisable value of the security exceed the receivables to be secured by 10%, (including any interest and ancillary costs), we shall, at the Customer's request and at our discretion, release security to this extent.

7. Should the foregoing provisions concerning the retention of title not operate to provide security in other nations in the same manner as in the Federal Republic of Germany, the Customer shall use its best efforts to create such security rights for BESTAIR without undue delay. The Customer shall participate in any and all steps necessary and expedient for the validity and enforceability of such security rights.

§ 9 Prices, Payment
1. Unless agreed otherwise, in the event thata we make a binding offer (see § 2.1), we shall be bound to the prices stated in our offer for 90 (ninety) days from the date of the offer. The prices set forth in the order confirmation shall govern. Any additional goods and services shall be charged separately.

2. Our prices shall apply "ex-works" plus statutory value added tax as amended, but not including, however, transport packaging and transport insurance. Our invoices shall be payable net (with no deductions) within 10 (ten) days of the invoice date.

3. Notwithstanding provisions of the Customer to the contrary, we may set off payments against older debts owed by the Customer. If costs and interest have already been incurred, we may set off the payment first against the costs, and then against the interest, and finally against the principal. The Customer shall be notified thereof.

4. Payment shall be deemed made onlywhen we can dispose over the relevant amount. Cheques shall be accepted only as conditional payment and shall be deemed actual payment only after they have been redeemed.

5. Should the Customer default in payment,we may charge default interest in an amount 8 (eight) % above the base interest rate. Moreover, we may demand a reasonable fee for written notice letters.

6. Any and all receivables shall be due and payable immediately if the Customer defaults in payment, culpably fails to meet other material obligations under the contract or if we become aware of circumstances that could reduce the Customer's creditworthiness, in particular, cessation of payments or an application for or commencement of insolvency proceedings. In such cases, we may withhold outstanding deliveries or perform them only against advance payment or the provision of security.

7. The Customer may set off or exercise a right of retention only if the counterclaims are confirmed in a final and binding judgment, or are not disputed. However, the Customer may always exercise a right of retention based on counterclaims under the same contractual relationship.

§ 10 Prohibition on Assignment
The assignment of claims against us to third parties is expressly excluded, unless we give our express advance written consent to such assignment. Where claims that generally may not be assigned pursuant to § 6 paragraph 7 of these Standard Terms and Conditions are not involved, such consent shall be granted if the Customer provides proof of material concerns that outweigh our interests in maintaining the prohibition on assignment.

§ 11 Confidentiality, Restriction on Use
