The Purchaser shall carefully inspect the received goods for quantity, condition and defects immediately upon arrival. The Purchaser shall notify CONGEN of any obvious defects in writing and without delay, but at the latest within 10 days of receipt of the goods, stating the invoice number and date. Any defects that are not immediately apparent must also be reported as soon as possible, i.e., within 10 days of the assessment of the defect at the latest. If the Purchaser fails to notify CONGEN in due time, CONGEN’s liability for the defect not notified or not notified in due time shall be excluded in accordance with the statutory provisions. For the Purchaser who is a merchant, \u00a7 377 of the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch) shall apply in addition. <\/span><\/p>\n 8.2 The special statutory provisions shall remain unaffected in the case of final delivery of the unprocessed goods to a consumer, even if the consumer has processed them further (supplier’s recourse in accordance with \u00a7 478 German Civil Code, BGB). <\/span><\/p>\n 8.3 At CONGEN’s request, the Purchaser shall send CONGEN the original or a copy of supporting documents such as delivery notes and packing slips for the purpose of verifying the complaint, and shall notify CONGEN of any markings on the packages or send the goods to CONGEN freight-free for professional rectification. In the event of a justified complaint, CONGEN shall reimburse the costs of the most favourable shipping route; this shall not apply insofar as the costs are increased because the goods are located at a place other than the place of intended use.<\/span><\/p>\n 8.4 In the event of defective goods, CONGEN may initially, at its discretion, either repair or replace the goods (subsequent performance).

In the case of sales of goods in which CONGEN has co-ownership, the assignment shall be limited to the share of the claim corresponding to its co-ownership share. The Purchaser shall remain entitled<\/span> to collect these claims even after the assignment. CONGEN’s right to collect the claim itself shall remain unaffected. CONGEN is, however, obliged not to collect the claim as long as the Purchaser meets its payment obligations towards CONGEN, is not in default of payment and there is no deficiency in its ability to pay, in particular no application for the opening of<\/span> insolvency proceedings has been filed.

Insofar as certain actions are necessary for this purpose (for example a special marking of the delivery item or a local register entry), the Purchaser shall perform these for the benefit of CONGEN. Should CONGEN’s cooperation be necessary, the Purchaser shall inform CONGEN thereof without delay. In addition, the Purchaser shall inform CONGEN of all material circumstances which are of importance in the context of protecting CONGEN’s property as far as possible. In particular, they shall provide CONGEN with all documents and information<\/span> necessary to enforce these rights arising from the right of title. The provisions of this clause 12.7 shall apply mutatis mutandis, if under the law of the place where the delivery item is located a retention of title cannot be validly agreed, to the procurement of a legal position by CONGEN which effectively protects its interests and claims in an equally effective or other suitable manner, to the extent legally possible.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Allgemeine Hinweise” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_font=”|||on|||||” header_3_text_color=”gcid-040da83e-2b09-4e47-a4be-763a00dede93″ custom_margin=”2em||||false|false” custom_padding=”2em||||false|false” border_width_top=”1px” border_color_top=”#DEDEDE” border_width_bottom_tablet=”” border_width_bottom_phone=”” border_width_bottom_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-040da83e-2b09-4e47-a4be-763a00dede93%22:%91%22header_3_text_color%22%93}”]<\/p>\n 13.1 The Purchaser is obliged to comply with the law against <\/span>unfair competition and, if applicable, regulations under the law on medicinal products and\/or medical devices on his own responsibility in the event of resale or sale.<\/span><\/p>\n 13.2 Without CONGEN’s prior express written consent, it is<\/span> not permitted to use CONGEN’s protected trademarks for goods of<\/span> third party manufacture or for processed original goods.<\/span><\/p>\n 13.3 The Purchaser is further obliged to sell or hand over the delivered goods only in their entirety (i.e.,<\/span> including packaging, instruction leaflets, operating instructions, warning notices,<\/span> etc.). <\/span><\/p>\n 13.4 The attention of the Purchaser is drawn to the fact that goods or delivery items (and, where applicable, the know-how contained therein) may be subject to export or import controls.
