§ 4 Delivery, Delivery Periods, Force Majeure
Delivery periods are non-binding unless expressly agreed as binding.
Compliance with delivery periods requires timely cooperation by the customer.

Liability for indirect damages, consequential damages or loss of profit is excluded to the extent legally permissible.
Liability shall be limited in amount to the value of the respective order.

insofar as their realizable value exceeds the secured claims by more than 10%.
