8.4. For a work performance, the risk shall transfer upon acceptance or at a time equivalent to acceptance.
For a work performance where customer acceptance is required, the following applies, unless otherwise agreed with the customer:
Acceptance shall take place at the production site of work. PPGG will communicate to the customer that the work is ready for acceptance and ask it to accept it at an appointed time during normal working hours. The customer shall be obliged to declare acceptance in writing if the work is of the agreed quality. The costs of acceptance shall be borne by the customer, including PPGG staff costs. The customer shall ensure that any equipment and instruments necessary for the acceptance are available.
Acceptance may be refused only if adjustments made differ materially with respect to the agreed condition. This should be recorded. Insignificant deviations shall not entitle the customer to refuse acceptance. If the customer refuses to accept the work, although it is obliged to do so, acceptance shall be deemed to have nevertheless occurred. Acceptance may not be refused due to minor defaults.
Prior to acceptance, the customer shall not be authorized to make use or partial use of the work. If it nevertheless makes such use of the work, this shall be considered as acceptance.
10.1. The shipment of the delivery item shall be carried out by a transport provider chosen by PPGG. PPGG is not obliged to take out transport insurance. If the customer wishes to have transport insurance, PPGG will take out such insurance for the delivery. The customer shall bear the costs thereof.

11.2. The customer must inspect without delay the goods delivered and work performed, in particular regarding the agreed amount and quality. Complaints regarding defects shall only be considered if they communicated in writing to PPGG within 10 days from receipt of the delivery item or from the moment of when they become detectable. The notice must include a description of the defect. The customer shall lose the right to complain about a defect if it does not do so within the above deadlines.
11.3. If there is a defect, PPGG shall have the option to remedy the defect or deliver a replacement. As a rule, elimination shall be carried out at the place where the delivery item is situated for its intended use. However, PPGG may require that the faulty part or the delivery item be returned for the purpose of repair or replacement. If removal or installation requires special knowledge, PPGG shall be entitled to perform removal or installation itself or to have them performed. Additional costs arising from the fact that the delivered goods are transported to a place other than the selected place or the place of delivery shall be borne by the customer. Parts that have been replaced during defect correction shall become the property of PPGG.
11.4. PPGG warrants – without providing a guarantee for this – that the delivered items do not violate the patents, other intellectual property rights or know-how of third parties, insofar as these rights are protected in Germany or insofar as the design was not prescribed by the customer.
If a third party makes legitimate claims against delivery items in relation to such patents, other intellectual property rights or know-how, PPGG shall choose whether to carry out subsequent performance by acquiring a license for the affected items or by supplying articles that are free of intellectual property rights. PPGG shall be entitled in such a situation to avoid the infringement of property rights through reasonable alternative designs with equivalent performance.
11.5. The mere implementation of the repair or replacement is no acknowledgment of the existence of the defect. If the limitation period is suspended by the subsequent performance, this shall apply only to the defective product, not to the rest of the equipment as a whole.
11.6. If the customer has complained of a defect and it turns out that such a defect does not exist for which PPGG is liable, the customer shall compensate PPGG for the investigation costs incurred.
11.7. If the defect cannot be eliminated or if further attempts at rectification are unreasonable for the customer or if replacement fails, the customer shall have the right to either withdraw from the contract or demand an appropriate reduction of the purchase price, according to its choice. Compensation and expense reimbursement claims remain unaffected, in accordance with Clause. 13.
11.8. Claims due to a defect shall not arise from natural wear or from damage resulting from faulty or negligent handling or installation by the customer, excessive strain, unsuitable equipment, electronic or electrical influences or similar. PPGG shall not be liable for defects that result from materials provided or designs prescribed by the customer.
11.9. All claims due to a defect shall expire by time limitation one year from the delivery/acceptance of the performance. Unless the goods are to be considered to be buildings under the German civil code (Gebaüde) or unless any other special rights apply under the applicable civil code that may not be excluded by law.
The customer shall immediately inform PPGG in writing of any claims asserted by third parties due to infringement of property rights or because of other defects in the delivered items for which PPGG is liable, and shall act in connection with the necessary defence in consultation with PPGG and support PPGG in the defence to the best of its ability.
The liability of PPGG – for whatever legal reason in particular for any claims of the customer regarding damages or costs of replacement services or wasted staff time regardless of the legal grounds for such claim.
– is excluded.This limitation of liability shall however not apply to the extent liability cannot be limited or excluded by law as follows:
To the extent PPGG its legal representatives, employees or subcontractors are liable due to simple negligence even if this entails a breach of material obligations under the contract and to the extent none of the above exceptions apply then liability shall be limited to compensation for the foreseeable and typical losses.
The limitation of liability set out above applies to the fullest extent possible to any affiliates of or employees of any kind including directors and any other third parties assigned by PPGG with the fulfilment of an order.
14.1. Until full payment is made – for payment by check or bill of exchange until they are cashed – to PPGG for all receivables due to it from the business relationship with the customer, the delivered goods shall remain the property of PPGG (reserved goods).
14.2. The customer must until such time as ownership is transferred to the customer treat the goods with all due care. In particular the customer will at its own expense insure the goods against damages like fire, theft and water damages. If maintenance or inspection is required the customer shall in due course make sure this takes place at their expense.
14.3. The customer is entitled to resell the delivered goods in the ordinary course of business. In the case of resale, the customer already now assigns to PPGG the receivables that result from the resale against its customers in the value of the reserved goods (invoice total incl. VAT), with all ancillary rights.
14.4. Any working or processing of the reserved goods shall be carried out by the customer for PPGG and will not result in PPGG incurring any obligations. In the event of processing with other goods also under retention of title, PPGG shall acquire co-ownership of the new item in the ratio of the purchase price agreed between PPGG and the customer (invoice amount incl. VAT) to the purchase price of the other goods at the time of processing. The same conditions apply for the item created by processing as for the reserved goods.
14.5. If the reserved goods are inseparably mixed with other items, PPGG shall acquire co-ownership of the new item in the ratio of the value of the reserved goods (invoice amount incl. VAT) to the other mixed objects at the time of mixing. If the mixing is such that the customer’s item is to be regarded as the main item, it is agreed that the customer transfers proportional co-ownership to PPGG. The customer shall safeguard the property thus created for PPGG.
14.6. The customer assigns to PPGG the claims that arise through the combination of the reserved goods with real property in order to secure the claims of PPGG against the customer.
14.7. The customer must immediately notify PPGG in writing of any interventions against the goods delivered under retention of title or the rights assigned to PPGG. If the third party is not able to reimburse PPGG for the judicial and extrajudicial costs of a legal action pursuant to §§ 771 of the German Code of Civil Procedure (ZPO), the customer shall be liable for the loss incurred by PPGG.
14.8. PPGG is entitled to demand at any time the surrender of PPGG-owned or co-owned items if PPGG considers there is a risk of the customer failing to fulfil its obligations or if it violates its obligations. If PPGG takes back the goods, this shall not constitute withdrawal from the contract unless explicitly declared in writing by PPGG. Should PPGG seize the goods, this shall always constitute withdrawal from the contract. PPGG shall be entitled to sell the goods after taking them back. The proceeds therefrom shall be credited to the customer’s liabilities, less reasonable utilisation costs.
14.9. The customer must make the necessary arrangements and issue all documents required by law so that the retention of title takes effect or other security is provided or maintained in favour of PPGG.
If any provision of these conditions or any provision of any other agreement is or becomes completely or partially invalid, this shall not affect the validity of all the other provisions of these conditions or those agreements. Ineffective components must be replaced by provisions that correspond to the original intent of the parties to the contract.
To the extent there is any inconsistency or disagreement on interpretation between the German version and this English translation of the general terms and conditions the German version shall prevail.
16.1. All legal relationships between the customer and PPGG that arise in connection with this contract, whether based on contract or tort law or any other legal basis, are governed exclusively by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany.
16.2.The exclusive place of jurisdiction for all legal disputes between the customer and PPGG, also related to checks and bills of exchange, is the court competent for the registered office of PPGG. However, PPGG shall be entitled to sue the customer at its place of business.
16.3.The Customer shall pay all fees, costs and expenses that arise in conjunction with any legal prosecution successfully carried out against him outside of Germany.
