Delivery tests

7.
Agreed delivery tests must be conducted in the vendor’s factory in normal working hours unless otherwise agreed. If the technical specifications for the test are not specified in the contract, the test must be conducted in accordance with the standards generally applicable in the relevant industrial sector in the country in which the product is manufactured.

8.
The vendor must inform the purchaser of the delivery test in sufficient time for a representative of the purchaser to be present. If the purchaser is not present at the test, the vendor must provide the purchaser with the test protocol, which will make up a binding proof of the results of the test.

9.
If, following the delivery test, the product is not found to be in conformance with the contract, the vendor must ensure that the product is brought into agreement with the contract promptly. If the purchaser so requests, a new test must then be performed. If the non-conformance has been insignificant, a new test cannot be requested.

10.
The vendor shall bear all the costs for delivery tests that are conducted in its factory. The purchaser is responsible for their own costs such as travel and per diem for the employee appointed by them to attend the test.

11.
Delivery is free of charge from the vendor’s warehouse. Delivery times will be calculated from the latest of the following times:

(a) the day before the contract is completed;

(b) the day that the vendor receives notification of any necessary licenses or other permits;

(c) the day that the vendor receives the payment prescribed in the contract that must be paid before manufacture begins;

(d) the day that the vendor receives all technical data and instructions necessary for the delivery.

If the vendor finds that the agreed delivery time cannot be met or delay on its side is likely, he should without delay communicate in writing to the purchaser, specifying the reason for the delay and as far as possible indicate the time when the delivery is estimated to take place.

12.
If the delivery time indicated in the contract is only approximate, each party, at the end of two-thirds of the time set, must request the other party in writing to agree a specific time. If the agreement does not specify any delivery time, each party, six months after the conclusion of the contract must submit such a request as referred to in the previous section. Such specified time must apply as if it were a delivery time specified in the contract.

13.
If delivery is prevented or made more difficult due to any of the items specified in section 34, or by the purchaser’s actions or omissions, the delivery time will be extended to the equivalent extent. This provision shall apply regardless of whether the circumstance in question occurs before or after the end of the agreed time of delivery.

14.
If the vendor does not deliver the product within the time of delivery or within the extended time specified in section 13, the purchaser is entitled to a penalty payment, as long as with regard to the circumstances of the case it may reasonably be assumed that the vendor has caused the damage and the purchaser has submitted the penalty claim immediately after the delay has occurred. The following percentages, or maximizing shall apply to the above-mentioned penalty:

0.5 % per week of that part of the agreed purchase price relating to the part of the products that, as a result of the delay cannot be put to its intended purpose. If the amount on which the penalty shall be calculated exceeds SEK 500,000, the penalty on the excess is 0.25 % per week. The penalty, which is calculated for each full week that the delay lasts, calculated from the date on which the product should have been deliverer, cannot exceed 7.5% of the part of the purchase price that refers to that part of the product that can be put to its intended use. Subject to the provisions of section 16 the purchaser’s right to a penalty any other sanctions in respect of the vendor’s delayin delivering the product.

15.
If the purchaser is entitled to the maximum penalty provided for in section 14, it is entitled to cancel the contract with regard to that part of the product on which the maximum penalty has been calculated, if it in writing required the delivery and notified of its intention to cancel the purchase if delivery does not take place within a specified reasonable time limit and the vendor does not deliver the goods before the expiry of the notice period. The purchaser is also entitled to cancel the purchase with regard to parts that have already been delivered even though the cancellation right does not apply because the part cannot obviously be used for intended purpose, and the vendor understands, or should have understood, this.

16.
If the purchaser cancels the purchase, or parts thereof, pursuant to section 15, it is entitled, within the limitations described in sections 37-39, to compensation for added costs due to the compensation delivery (compensation for price difference) or for such costs that may arise if it decides not to acquire another product instead.

17.
If the purchaser considers that the it will not be able to receive the product on the set date, it must communicate without delay in writing with the vendor, specifying the reason for the delay and, as far as possible specify a time at which receipt can take place. If the purchaser does not receive the goods on the set date, it is still obliged to make payment in the same way as would have been the case if the goods had been delivered.

18. If the purchaser's failure in terms of Clause 17 is not due to a circumstance referenced in Clause 34, the seller may call upon the purchaser in writing to take delivery of the goods within a reasonable period. If the purchaser, regardless of the reason, fails to comply, the seller is entitled to cancel the contract by written notice to the purchaser with respect to the portion of the goods that remains undelivered due to the purchaser's failure.

19.
If the purchaser does not receive the goods within the agreed time, it is responsible for the risk of destruction of the goods and is obliged to pay the vendor for costs arising from care, storage or insurance of the goods. If the vendor cancels the contract in accordance with section 18, it is entitled to compensation from the purchaser at a price that is equivalent to the purchase price with deduction of the amount that the vendor can save by not completing the delivery to the purchaser. In this context it is assumed that the vendor if possible will attempt to sell the product to another person.

Prices and payment

20.
Unless otherwise agreed, the vendor is entitled to compensation for price increases on the basis of taxes, public charges or exchange rate changes following the quotation date. If the agreed delivery time because of agreement about this or in accordance with section 13, is extended by more than six months, the vendor is not bound by the agreed price, but is entitled to a fair and reasonable price which in this case is determined by reference to the price generally applied on the delivery date.

21.
Payment shall be made no later than thirty days after the invoice date. If the purchaser does not make payment at the correct time, the vendor is entitled to the statutory interest on late payment. If the purchaser, for reasons other than those specified in section 34, has not paid the amount due, the vendor is entitled to notify the purchaser in writing that it is canceling the contract and claim compensation from the purchaser in the same way as specified in section 19, second paragraph.

Reclamation conditions

22.
If it can be assumed that the purchaser will not fulfill its commitments correctly under the contract, or if the vendor cancels the contract, the vendor is entitled to reclaim goods that can still legally be reclaimed. Until the product is fully paid, the purchaser is not entitled to dispose of it without the vendor’s written permission in such a way that the vendor’s right to reclaim it is compromised. Acceptance or other commercial actions are not regarded as payment, until it is completely settled.

The purchaser must send the part that has suffered failure to the vendor, as specified in section 23, unless the vendor finds it suitable to perform the repair at the purchaser’s site. When the vendor delivers the product appropriately repaired or replaced to the purchaser, the vendor shall be deemed to have fulfilled its obligations under this section with respect to the faulty component. If the vendor, instead of remedying the fault, refunds the purchase price, the purchaser must return the product in substantially unchanged or undiminished condition or, if this is not possible in the settlement of the purchase price, pay the vendor an amount that corresponds to the value of that which is retained. The amount that the vendor shall repay to the purchaser will be reduced by compensation that is reasonably paid by the purchaser for return and use of the product as well as an amount corresponding to the product’s decrease in value.

27.
The purchaser must pay the costs and carry the risk of transport of faulty parts to the vendor, while the vendor must pay the costs and carry the risk for transport of delivered or repaired exchange parts to the destination specified in the contract or – if not so specified – to the delivery location.

In such a case, the settlement must take place in accordance with section 26, paragraph 3- The vendor’s obligation to perform itself the actions stated in section 26, and to compensate the purchaser in accordance with the present section is limited to a cost that in total represents 15 per cent of the price of the product.

Internal issues between the vendor and purchaser must, however, always be decided in the manner specified in section 42.
