The other party shall at all times comply with the restrictions on use as agreed between the parties. Subject to the other provisions of these conditions, the user rights of the other party only cover the right to load and execute the software.

2. The other party shall only use the software within its own organization in combination with the corresponding equipment as delivered by NYOYN. Insofar as nothing has been agreed to this end, the equipment of the other party on which the software is used for the first time, is considered to be the equipment for which the user rights have been granted. The user rights can relate to several pieces of equipment insofar as this is clearly apparent from the agreement.

3. NYOYN is entitled to make software it has improved available to the other party; even if no maintenance agreement has been entered into between the parties.

Article 8. Maintenance

1. Maintenance means:

a. preventive maintenance: any inspection, adjustment, improvement and/or cleaning of the products considered necessary by NYOYN to avoid failures; whether or not executed via the internet;

b. remedial maintenance: the elimination of failures in the equipment that have arisen during normal use of the products as a result of natural wear and tear and by inherent defects of the products as well as the carrying out of repairs necessary to this end and the replacement of worn or damaged parts respectively; whether or not executed via the internet.

2. The term ‘failure’ (= also ‘fault’) is deemed to refer to the failure of the products to meet the written product specifications issued by NYOYN or the failure to meet these without interruption. A failure is only deemed to exist if said failure can be demonstrated and reproduced.

3. The other party shall notify NYOYN in detail of any failures in the products in accordance with NYOYN’s reporting procedure referred to in article 11 (complaints) below.

4. NYOYN shall try to rectify any failures to the best of its abilities. NYOYN is entitled to introduce temporary solutions or problem-avoiding restrictions to the products. NYOYN does not guarantee that the products shall work without failure or that all faults shall be rectified.

5. Maintenance work will be carried out on weekdays (Monday to Friday) during such office hours as applicable at NYOYN, with the exception of generally recognized bank holidays.

6. The other party shall allow NYOYN’s staff, or third parties appointed by NYOYN, access to the products and provide any other necessary cooperation.

7. At the request of NYOYN, an employee of the other party shall be present during the maintenance work for consultation. The other party is entitled to be present at the work carried out for the other Party.

8. The Other Party supplies and is responsible for the technical, physical and telecommunication provisions necessary to operate the products. The maintenance expressly does not extend to the aforementioned provisions and connections.

9. The agreement for the maintenance of products is entered into for the term agreed between the parties, failing which a term of one year applies.

10. Unless otherwise agreed, the term of the agreement will each time be tacitly renewed for the original length of time, unless NYOYN or the other party terminates the agreement in writing with due observance of a notice period of three months before the end of the relevant period.

11. The parties are not obliged to pay compensation by reason of the termination of the maintenance agreement.

Article 9. Guarantees

1. NYOYN guarantees the operation of the newly purchased products for a period of 12 months, commencing on the date the delivery took place. Deterioration or damage as a result of wear and tear is excluded from this guarantee.

2. Under the terms of the guarantee NYOYN shall, at the discretion of NYOYN, repair or replace any damaged products free of charge.

3. NYOYN’s guarantee only passes to a third party if this has been expressly agreed with the other party in writing.

4. Any claim under the terms of the guarantee shall only be honored if the products that have been delivered by NYOYN have been used in accordance with their intended use and insofar as the accompanying instructions for use have been followed correctly.

5. A claim under the terms of the guarantee will lapse if:

a. the other party carries blame in respect of the arisen defect;

b. the defect has arisen due to an unforeseen use of the product by the other party;

c. the other party has made alterations to the product or has had alterations made, by a party other than NYOYN;

d. the other party has transferred the product to a third party, either in ownership or in use;

e. the other party has not performed its obligations arising from the agreement.

6. All products that have been replaced within the framework of the guarantee will become property of NYOYN.

7. NYOYN shall, to the best of its ability, ensure the operation of the software it has delivered. If imperfections are the (in)direct result of faults in the software or user manuals, NYOYN shall, to the best of its ability, ensure to rectify said situation as quickly as possible.

8. On expiry of the guarantee period as referred to in paragraph 1, NYOYN is not obliged to rectify any faults unless a maintenance agreement, including such rectifications, has been entered into between the parties.

Article 10. The impracticability of the agreement and ‘force majeure’

1. If, during the execution of the agreement, it appears that a full and proper execution of the agreement is not possible due to circumstances that NYOYN and/or the other party were not aware of or were not expected to have been aware of upon entering in to the agreement, the parties are entitled to propose to each other to change the agreement to an agreement that is correct and that can be fully executed.

2. If the agreement is not amended in accordance with the first paragraph, the parties are entitled to terminate the agreement, cases of force majeure excepted. In such an instance, the other party is obliged to pay NYOYN for those costs already incurred in respect of the execution of the agreement.

3. In the event of force majeure on the part of NYOYN, the execution of the agreement is suspended as long as the cause of the force majeure renders execution by NYOYN impossible, without the other party being able to claim compensation and/or terminate the agreement.

4. If force majeure continues for more than 2 months, the other party is obliged, in reasonable proportion to the price of the full delivery, to pay for that part of the goods that might in the meantime have been delivered. NYOYN and the other party are then entitled to terminate the agreement relating to the remainder of the delivery. The other party cannot claim execution and/or compensation.

5. In the event that only a specific part of the agreement cannot be performed, termination shall only take place in respect of that part of the agreement that cannot be executed, unless this cannot reasonably be required.

6. Force majeure is deemed to include, and as such is not limited to: war, threat of war and riot, natural and nuclear disasters, impeding measures of national and international governments, fire, sabotage, general strike, sickness of personnel, congestion, shortcomings on the part of suppliers and other unforeseeable circumstances as a result of which the execution of the agreement is permanently or temporarily impossible.

Article 11. Complaints

1. ‘Complaints’ is deemed to refer to any grievances with regard to the execution of the agreement by NYOYN. Complaints relating to the delivered products shall be reported immediately by the other party upon delivery by means of the delivery note but, if this is not possible, within 5 working days after delivery. In respect of defects arising subsequently it applies that complaints must be reported within 10 working days after the defect has been discovered or reasonably could have been discovered.

2. The complaint incorporates a description of the grievances and the observed defects and or failures.

3. Complaints in respect of an invoice from NYOYN shall be submitted in writing within 5 working days stating the invoice date, invoice number and any possible consignment numbers. This does not permit the other party to suspend any of its payment obligations.

4. Complaints shall be declared inadmissible if it appears that the instructions for use have not been followed by or on behalf of the other party, or if there has been actual incorrect use, or if alterations or changes have been made to the delivered product by a party other than NYOYN.

 

Article 12. Liability

1. Save for NYOYN’s liability pursuant to mandatory statutory provisions and the general requirements of reasonableness and fairness, NYOYN cannot be held liable. NYOYN is only liable for loss attributable to its intent or gross negligence. NYOYN is not liable for consequential loss and/or loss of profit.

2. NYOYN’s liability is, in any case, limited to the amount of the invoice that includes the product causing the liability.

3. If loss is suffered by third parties, directly or indirectly relating to the execution of the agreement between NYOYN and the other party, the other party is obliged to fully indemnify NYOYN and any third party engaged by NYOYN during the execution of the agreement in this respect.

4. If NYOYN is held liable by the other party on other grounds than the present agreement, the same limitation of liability as set out in the preceding paragraphs will apply.

 

Article 13. Payment

1. Payment shall be made within 14 days from date of invoice at the latest. If this term is exceeded, the other party will be considered to be in default towards NYOYN by operation of law and NYOYN will be entitled to terminate the agreement without prejudice to its other statutory and contractual rights.

2. In the event of late payment, the other party shall pay NYOYN interest of 1% per month on the invoice amount.

3. If NYOYN is forced to turn the collection of the payment over to a collection agency, both the judicial and extrajudicial costs shall be for the account of the other party.

4. Payment by or on behalf of the other party shall successively be applied to the extrajudicial collection costs due, the interest and subsequently, in order of seniority, the outstanding sums, irrespective of any instructions made by the other party to the contrary.

5. If the other party is in default and/or NYOYN has good grounds for fearing that the other party shall not fulfil its payment obligations towards NYOYN or not fulfil them on time, NYOYN is, without being liable to pay any compensation and without prejudice to its other statutory and contractual rights, entitled to require advance payment or security from the other party, in addition to suspending the agreement, wholly or in part, revoking the agreed payment term - whether or not relating to other agreements with the other party - as a result of which the outstanding sums will become immediately due and payable and is entitled to suspend its obligations arising from other agreements entered into with the other party.

6. The maintenance fee, plus the turnover tax due and other levies imposed by government, are paid in advance for the duration of the maintenance agreement, at the latest on the day of the commencement of the agreement or the relevant renewal period.

7. In default of a timely payment, NYOYN is entitled to suspend the maintenance work without being liable to pay any compensation to the other party.

 

Article 14. Retention of title

1. NYOYN retains the ownership of all the products it has delivered to the other party until the purchase price of these goods as well as any other goods or services it has delivered pursuant to other agreements entered into with the other party, has or have been paid in full.

2. All intellectual and industrial property rights to products and/or services, or parts thereof that have been developed by, or on instruction of, NYOYN remain at all times the property of NYOYN, irrespective of the question whether any statutory possibility for registration has been utilized and irrespective of whether the development by NYOYN took place on the instruction of the other party.
