General Conditions of Sale
IMPORTANT NOTE: These terms and conditions apply in the absence of a previously signed written contract between Schiller and its customer or between Schiller and its authorized distributor.
1. General
1.1 These Terms and Conditions of Sale and Delivery of Schiller (“the Terms" or “these Terms”) are binding upon customer when they are declared applicable by Schiller in a Purchase Order (which has a weblink reference to these Terms or attaches these Terms as the case may be), and when the Purchase Order is confirmed in writing by Schiller (“ the Order Confirmation”); and to the extent Schiller and the customer do not expressly and in writing agree to other terms or there exists at the time of the placing of the order a binding, written agreement between the parties setting forth the terms and conditions of sale, whether the other party is a customer or a distributor, in which case such other written agreement shall govern and control. Differing terms and conditions of sale or delivery proposed by the customer will only be binding or modify any existing agreement only to the extent that such terms and conditions are expressly accepted by Schiller in writing. Unless otherwise provided or set forth in a written agreement between Schiller and customer, the relevant rules of the Swiss Code of Obligations (OR) shall apply. For purposes of these Terms, the term “customer” shall mean a customer purchasing products directly from Schiller or a distributor purchasing such products for resale without an existing written contract with Schiller. The term “the Contract” shall mean these Terms and the written Order Confirmation as confirmed in writing by Schiller.
1.2 Unless otherwise provided or set forth in a written agreement between Schiller and customer, a contract for a specific order shall be created and be binding subject to these Terms only when the customer receives written confirmation of Schiller by way of Order Confirmation confirming that Schiller accepts the order described therein.
2. Rules in the country of destination, protection devices and rules
2.1 The customer shall, at the latest at the time the Purchase Order is placed with Schiller, or at Schiller’s request, disclose and point to Schiller’s attention the rules and regulations applicable in the customer’s country with respect to the services and deliveries of Schiller, especially rules and regulations for protection against disease or accidents or business disruptions.
2.2 The deliveries and services of Schiller products set forth and described in the Order Confirmation are intended to correspond to the rules and regulations at the domicile of the customer, insofar as they are known to Schiller at the time of written acceptance of the Purchase Order by Schiller, but it shall be the customer’s exclusive responsibility to alert and notify Schiller regarding any such rules and regulations.
2.3 The use of hazardous substances and the management of electrical and electronic equipment are intended to meet the fundamental requirements of the WEEE and RoHS Directives (2002/96/EC and 2002/95/EC).
3. Prices
3.1 All Prices quoted by Schiller are strictly net, ex works (EXW, Incoterms 2010), in Swiss Francs, without any deductions. All extra costs, e.g. for packaging, freight, insurance, export, transit, import and other permissions, as well as certifications, are payable by the customer, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Schiller.
4.0 Terms of payment
4.1 The customer must effect and make payments to Schiller at the domicile of Schiller in Baar, Switzerland (according to any payment instructions required by Schiller in the Order Confirmation) within thirty (30) days after issuance of an invoice by Schiller or according to the agreed terms of payment. Payment shall be made by customer without any deduction, set-off, withholding or discount, expenses, taxes, duties, fees, tolls and similar offsets. If payment by promissory note is agreed to by Schiller, the customer shall bear all interest, note taxes and expenses of collection, including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred by Schiller to collect any amounts due under said promissory note, which shall be a separate written instrument.
4.2 Customer must comply with the agreed payment terms and schedule set forth in the Order Confirmation and make such payments in full even if transport, delivery, installation, putting into operation or acceptance of the deliveries or services are delayed or made impossible for reasons for which Schiller is not responsible, or if insignificant parts are missing, or if reworking measures are necessary, that do not make the use of the delivered products impossible or unacceptable. It shall be the sole responsibility of customer to address and resolve any and all issues customer may have or that may arise with customs and government officials, and shipping, transportation and /or warehouse personnel for release and delivery of the products to customer at the destination.
4.3 If the customer does not comply with the payment terms of the Order Confirmation, the customer shall be responsible for and pay interest on the amount in arrears as of the agreed payment date. Interest shall accrue on and apply to arrears and shall correspond to the usual prevailing annual interest at the domicile of Schiller in Baar, Switzerland, but shall be not less than five percent (5%). This provision requiring customer to pay interest is not a waiver of Schiller’s rights to seek any additional compensation and/or damages against customer, and all such rights are expressly reserved herewith.
4.4 If customer does not make any required down-payment towards the Contract and/or provide any guarantee of payment as may be required by Schiller in its sole discretion, Schiller shall have the right to cancel the Contract at Schiller’s convenience or for cause, and Schiller may withdraw performance thereunder without liability to the customer, reserving and not waiving any and all rights against customer to be paid compensation for any damages or losses incurred in preparing to perform and/or beginning to perform, as the case may be.
4.5 If the customer at any time during performance of the Contract by Schiller or the applicable term of the Order Confirmation fails to make any installment payments that may be agreed-upon by Schiller or set forth in the Order Confirmation, or make final payment or fails to comply with the payment terms of the Order Confirmation, or if Schiller has good faith reasons to believe that payment may not be forthcoming from customer, Schiller shall have the right to suspend performance of the Contract and not deliver the product or cancel the Contract after giving notice to the customer and an opportunity to perform within a reasonable period of time, without any liability to customer and reserving and not waiving any and all rights to compensation for any damages or losses incurred in performing or arising out of the suspension or cancellation.

Delivery is expressly made contingent on compliance by customer with these Terms.
6.2 Customer agrees that Schiller may reasonably modify the date of delivery for or because of any or a combination of the following reasons:

(b) Force Majeure events over which Schiller has no control, such as fires, earthquakes, hurricanes, typhoons, tornados, tsunamis, floods, epidemics, war, riots, strikes, terrorist acts, labor disputes, lack of or late supply of raw materials, semi-finished or finished products, government official measures, and acts of God;

8. Risk of Loss
8.1 Risk of loss shall pass to the customer with the departure of the deliveries ex works (EXW Incoterms 2010).
8.2 If the shipment is delayed at the request of the customer for other reasons for which Schiller is not responsible, the risk shall pass to the customer at the point of time when delivery ex works was originally planned and was supposed to occur, regardless if the products are located at Schiller’s facilities. From that point of time forward, any Schiller products that are ready for delivery will be stored by Schiller for a reasonable time at the sole expense and risk of the customer.
8.3 Any changes to Schiller’s standard shipment and transportation procedures will only be binding on Schiller only upon previous written agreement by Schiller.

9.3 Customer agrees that it shall inspect all deliveries of Schiller hereunder and advise Schiller in writing of any defects within five (5) days of receipt of the products. Failure to notify Schiller in writing within this period shall constitute acceptance of the products by Customer.
