Beamex Oy Ab Data Processing Annex
BEAMEX OY AB GENERAL TERMS OF SALE (1/2015)
1. DEFINITIONS; SCOPE OF APPLICATION. In these general terms and conditions (the “Terms”) the supplier or service provider shall mean Beamex Oy Ab (the “Supplier“), the customer shall mean the company, corporation or person with whom any agreement is concluded or to whom any order confirmation is addressed (the “Customer”) (together, the “Parties”), the goods shall mean the hardware and software supplied by the Supplier to the Customer (the “Goods” or separately the “Hardware” and/or the “Software”) and the services shall mean the services provided by the Supplier to the Customer (the “Services”). Beamex offers Goods and Services for sale exclusively in accordance with these Terms and these Terms shall exclusively apply to all Goods sold and Services provided by the Supplier to the Customer, even if the Customer provides the Supplier different or additional terms in connection with a purchase order, order confirmation or other document. Any other than these Terms shall be applied only when an authorized representative of the Supplier expressly agrees in writing to apply such terms.
2. FORMATION OF AN AGREEMENT. The Supplier’s offers are non-binding until accepted by the Customer by issuing a purchase order in compliance with these Terms and acknowledged by the Supplier in the form of a written order confirmation (the “Order Confirmation”). An acknowledged purchase order is a binding agreement between the Supplier and the Customer (“Agreement”). Unless otherwise described herein, changing or cancelling an acknowledged purchase order requires mutual agreement.
3. PRICES AND PRICE ADJUSTMENT. The purchase price for the Goods or Services is the price specified by the Supplier in its Order Confirmation. The purchase prices do not include shipping costs, taxes (e.g. value added tax) or any other public charges, which are additional and payable by the Customer, unless otherwise agreed. Value added tax will be added to prices in accordance with regulations in force from time to time. Possible costs related to freight, packaging or handling of the Goods shall thus be added to the purchase price as agreed upon separately in writing between the parties. Should, after an agreement has been concluded and entered into, the purchase, production, transport or any other costs relating to the Goods or Services increase by more than five (5) percent due to changes in the rates of exchange, the Supplier shall be entitled to revise the price accordingly. Should, after an agreement has been concluded and entered into, export or import duties, custom charges, taxes on export, import or delivery or similar duties or charges increase or should new duties, taxes and/or charges be introduced and implemented in respect of the Goods or Services, the Supplier shall be entitled to revise the price accordingly.
4. PAYMENT AND CREDIT ACCOUNTS. All payments by the Customer to the Supplier shall be made in advance to an account specified in the Supplier’s Order Confirmation, unless the parties agree otherwise in writing. The parties may agree in writing that payment shall be made after the delivery of the Goods and within thirty (30) days from the date of the Supplier’s invoice, in which case the parties shall agree in writing upon a credit limit and the terms and conditions thereof. If the credit limit is exceeded, the Supplier is entitled to demand for payment in advance and refrain from delivering the Goods and/or performing the Services during the time the credit limit is exceeded. In case it can reasonably be assumed that the Customer will not fulfill its obligation to pay the purchase price, the Supplier is entitled to demand a bank guarantee or equivalent security accepted by the Supplier to be given as security for full payment before continuing with or delivering any order. If the Customer does not offer such security, the Supplier shall be entitled to cancel the agreement. In case of delayed payment, the Supplier is entitled to collect interest from the Customer for the time of the delay according to the provisions of the Interest Act of Finland (20.8.1982/633). If the Customer has not made full payment within two (2) months from the due date of the Supplier’s invoice, the Supplier shall be entitled, by written notice to the Customer, to terminate the agreement for breach and claim compensation for all costs, expenses and damages occurred.
5. DELIVERIES. Unless otherwise agreed upon in the Order Confirmation, the delivery condition is Ex Works the Supplier’s premises in Pietarsaari. The Supplier may specify an estimated date for the delivery of the Goods in its Order Confirmation. Such estimation is not binding upon the Supplier and the Customer shall not be entitled to any compensation whatsoever for delays. The Supplier shall thus not be liable for any direct or indirect losses or damages incurred by the Customer due to a delay in the delivery. Incoterms 2010, issued by the International Chamber of Commerce, shall apply to all deliveries of the Goods.
6. SERVICES TERMS AND CONDITIONS. In addition to these general terms and conditions, the Beamex Oy Ab Additional Terms for Sale and Provision of Services shall be applied to Services provided by the Supplier to the Customer. To the extent that there is a conflict among these general terms and conditions and the additional services terms, the additional services terms shall take precedence.
7. WARRANTIES.
a. Limited Warranty; Warranty Period. The Supplier warrants that the Hardware is free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service during the warranty period. Normal wear and tear and the need for regular maintenance or recalibration do not constitute a defect. Consumable items such as carrying cases, cables or test leads are not warranted. The Supplier does not make any warranties regarding functionality and operation of Software. The warranty extends only to the original end user of the hardware product. If the Supplier delivers warranty terms for Hardware in connection with the delivery that conflict with these terms, then the terms delivered in connection with the Hardware delivery shall be applied. The warranty period for the Hardware is twelve (12) months from the date of shipment, unless a longer warranty period is specified by the Supplier in separate warranty terms attached to the Hardware delivered to the Customer.
b. Exclusive Remedies. IN THE EVENT OF BREACH OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION, THE SUPPLIER’S ONLY OBLIGATION UNDER THIS WARRANTY IS TO (AND AS CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR BREACH OF ANY WARRANTY), AT ITS OPTION, TO REPAIR OR REPLACE THE HARDWARE, PROVIDED THAT THE CUSTOMER HAS NOTIFIED THE SUPPLIER OF THE WARRANTY DEFECT IN WRITING DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD. THE CUSTOMER’S NOTIFICATION MUST ALSO INCLUDE A DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE NON-CONFORMANCE OF THE HARDWARE WITH THESE WARRANTY TERMS. THE CUSTOMER SHOULD RETURN THE HARDWARE DIRECTLY TO THE SUPPLIER, AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTRE OF THE SUPPLIER OR A DISTRIBUTOR OF THE SUPPLIER AT THE CUSTOMER’S EXPENSE DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD.

e. Warranties for Third-Party Products. Sometimes the Supplier may sell or deliver third-party products together with Beamex-branded Goods.

f. Disclaimer and Exclusions. THE SUPPLIER DOES NOT ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, FOR THE GOODS BEING FIT FOR ANY GENERAL OR SPECIFIC PURPOSE, UNLESS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY STATED IN WRITING BY THE SUPPLIER. THE SUPPLIER GRANTS NO OTHER WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER FOR THE HARDWARE THAN THE WARRANTY SET OUT HEREIN, WHICH WARRANTY THUS SETS FORTH THE WARRANTY GIVEN BY THE SUPPLIER IN ITS ENTIRETY. THE SUPPLIER SHALL HAVE NO OTHER OBLIGATIONS REGARDING DEFECTS THAN WHAT HAS BEEN STATED HEREIN.
8. TITLE AND LICENSE; RISK OF LOSS. The title to the Hardware shall pass to the Customer when full payment has been made to the Supplier.

The Customer shall not have a right to sell, transfer or otherwise assign a license to the work results (including without limitation software, documents, data and other materials) provided by the Supplier to the Customer. If the Supplier delivers Software (including without limitation program updates, new versions, new revisions, system integration modules, modifications and corrections) to the Customer, the intellectual property rights of the software shall remain the property of Supplier or the applicable third party owner and Supplier’s standard software license terms will be applied to the delivered software.
11. THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT INDEMNITY. The Supplier shall defend any suit against the Customer arising out of any actual patent or copyright infringement of a valid patent or registered copyright, to the extent based on the Goods developed and provided by the Supplier, and indemnify for any final judgment awarded against the Customer by a court of competent jurisdiction as a result from such suit or settle such suit at no cost to the Customer provided that (a) the Customer notifies the Supplier promptly as it is apprised of the third-party claim; (b) the Customer permits the Supplier to handle defendant’s case or settlement; and (c) the Customer gives the Supplier all reasonable assistance and information (at the Customer’s expense) available as well as all necessary authorizations.

If a claim is made or the Supplier believes that a claim is likely, the Supplier may, at its option, obtain for the Customer the right to continue using the Goods or other work results provided by the Supplier; or (b) replace or modify the Goods so that they become non-infringing. If none of the above-mentioned alternatives is reasonably available, the Customer shall stop the use and any other exploitation of the Goods or other work results provided by the Supplier, in which case the Supplier shall refund all payments paid by the Customer for the infringing Goods, less a reasonable depreciation for use, damage and obsolescence.
