The supply contract comes into force upon written confirmation of acceptance of order by the Vendor. However, if the conditions indicated in the Buyer’s order differ from those in the Vendor’s written confirmation, the latter shall count as a new proposal and the contract shall be deemed completed at the moment in which the Buyer starts to execute it or accepts the products supplied without express written reservation.

The data and illustrations resulting from the catalogues, brochures, circulars or other illustrative documents from the Vendor shall be of an indicative nature. This data shall have no commitment value unless expressly mentioned as such in the confirmation of order. The Vendor reserves the right to make any modifications to his own products at any moment as he deems appropriate, giving notice to the Buyer if they affect the installation. If the Buyer proposes modifications so that it becomes compulsory to implement them, there shall be full written agreement between the parties on the variations which such modifications may cause to prices and delivery periods previously established. The Buyer shall expressly undertake not to use, for purposes other than those envisaged in the supply contract, the drawings, technical information and discoveries relating to the supply which shall remain the Vendor’s property and which the Buyer shall not be able to deliver to third parties nor reproduce without written permission. Should there be any particular normative law to respect in the Country of destination of the supply, the Buyer is bound to inform the Vendor before the stipulation of the contract.

Unless otherwise agreed, the Vendor gives a 12 (twelve) months guarantee on materials, as from the date the goods are taken from its warehouse. This guarantee is valid only for production defects, and exclusively with respect to the original Buyer. Cover does not extend to products found to be damaged as a result of transportation, incorrect handling, inappropriate storage, incorrect application or installation, lack of expertise in use of the materials, negligence or accidental damage on the part of the Buyer. Any type of maintenance, repair or replacement of the products will take place exclusively at ATAM in Agrate Brianza (MB).

Any complaints regarding the quantities or types of goods supplied must reach

the Vendor within 8 (eight) days of receipt of the goods by the Buyer. Once that period has elapsed, it is tacitly understood that the goods are accepted. Acceptance of any goods delivered without the Vendor having agreed this in advance will be refused. Any complaints regarding the quality of the goods must be reported to the Vendor and if the claimed defects are acknowledged by the Vendor, in terms of goods already covered by the guarantee period, the Vendor will be under obligation only to replace the product delivered free of delivery charge to the latter’s establishment. The Vendor will not bear liability for any direct and/or indirect damage resulting from use of the products supplied, or from their incorrect operation. In all cases any claim by the Buyer will not justify the suspension of payment or refusal to pay the invoices issued by the Vendor.

Every supply contract entered into among the parties, even with foreign countries, shall be regulated by these standard conditions and governed by the Italian law.

For any dispute pertaining to the execution, interpretation, validity, termination or cessation contracts entered into between the parties, the Court of Milan ( Repubblic of Italy ) exclusively shall be competent.
