QUANTITY, TIMING AND DATE OF DELIVERY

5.1. Except as expressly provided otherwise in the written Commercial Terms, the quantities indicated in the Commercial Terms are non-binding for both Parties. This means for the avoidance of doubt that acceptance of the Commercial Terms does not constitute a supply agreement in itself and does not create any contractual obligations or contractual rights for performance either for the Seller or for the Customer until Orders are placed accordingly by the Customer and are expressly accepted by Seller.

5.2. Subject to clause 5.1 above, Seller may supply the Product to the Customer, up to the volume expressed in the Commercial Terms and as per the phasing agreed in the Commercial Terms Should Customer need more volumes than those expressed in the Commercial Terms, phasing considered, delivery of those extra volumes is subject to availability of the Products and to new Commercial Terms to be agreed between the Parties. Seller cannot be held liable anyhow, for any reason whatsoever, in case Seller is not able to supply Customer with those extra volumes.

5.3. Where the Contract deals with phased delivery, the Customer acknowledges and accepts that, on a monthly basis, any quantity of products not called off by the Customer as per the agreed phasing and the agreed lead time will not be reserved to the Customer and therefore may not be available to it at any later date. Accordingly, the quantity negotiated in the Commercial Terms will be reduced without any recourse of action against Seller, except as determined and made available by Seller.

5.4. In each case, delivery times are indicated as precisely as possible but depend on Seller’s procurement, production, transportation, and storage possibilities and same if delivery times have been confirmed in writing by Seller, Seller cannot be held liable for any delay.

6.2. Seller shall keep title over the Products until full payment of the price. Issuing an obligation to pay (like a bill of exchange) shall not constitute a payment.
