1) Scope 1.1. The following General Terms and Conditions (hereinafter referred to as “GTC”) are anintegral part of all business transactions of Umdasch Digital Retail GmbH (hereinafter referred to as “Umdasch Digital Retail ”) in the course of sale of trading goods distributed by Umdasch Digital Retail in the form of purchase, rental or leasing, as well as delivery of IT facilities/services, such as programming services, implementation, customisation, IT consulting, maintenance or training. Where applicable, the customer’s General Terms and Conditions shall not apply, even if they remain unchallenged by Umdasch Digital Retail or do not contradict the GTC of Umdasch Digital Retail . Amendments to these General Terms and Conditions shall only be effective with the written approval of Umdasch Digital Retail . Differing arrangements on individual points of the existing conditions shall only be effective for these and require prior, explicit and written confirmation by Umdasch Digital Retail in order to be valid. 1.2. All legal relationships between the customer and Umdasch Digital Retail are based on these conditions and any other existing agreements. These conditions are deemed accepted upon receipt of the trade goods or IT facilities/services at the latest. Should further orders be placed by the customer with Umdasch Digital Retail , the conditions of this contract shall apply, insofar as no differing agreements are made or something else arises from the circumstances. 1.3. The instructions for use of Umdasch Digital Retail products form an integral part of the GTC. 1.4. These conditions also apply in their current state to all future business relationships, even if they are not expressly agreed once more. 1.5. Umdasch Digital Retail is entitled to alter all existing conditions, if this is necessary due to developments that were not foreseeable upon conclusion of the contract, which do not lie within Umdasch Digital Retail’s sphere of influence and were also not initiated by Umdasch Digital Retail, in order to restore the existing balance between the contracting parties upon conclusion of contract and significant regulatory contents of the contract (e.g. nature and scope of the contractually owed service, termination) are not affected. Amendments to these GTC are also possible if difficulties arise in the performance of the contract which are caused by omissions in these conditions, e.g. with the result that the jurisdiction of a clause is deemed invalid. Changes to the conditions shall be communicated to the customer in writing 4 weeks before their effective date. The customer has a special termination right in this case. If the customer does not terminate within four weeks of receipt of the notification of amendment, the amendments shall be deemed agreed, insofar as the customer was made aware of this separately in the course of the notification of amendment. 1.6. Should the interpretation of a contract (including these GTC) result in unclear or ambiguous content, the interpretation most favourable to Umdasch Digital Retail shall apply in accordance with § 915 ABGB (Austrian Civil Code). Offer and conclusion of contract 2) 2.1. Offers from Umdasch Digital Retail are non-binding and without obligation. Orders and awards of contracts by the customer shall be binding only when the customer receives a written order confirmation from Umdasch Digital Retail , whose content alone determines the contractual relationship and the scope of supply or service. 2.2. Catalogue details, designs, illustrations, dimensions, weights or other performance specifications are only binding if these are expressly agreed upon. Where reasonable for the customer, technical and creative differences from particulars in brochures, catalogues and written documents, as well as model, construction and material amendments in the course of technical improvements and further development remain reserved, without this resulting in the right to claim against Umdasch Digital Retail . Umdasch Digital Retail can make construction and/or specification amendments to products, insofar as the overall performance is not affected by this. Umdasch Digital Retail is however not obliged to make similar amendments to products already delivered. 2.3. Umdasch Digital Retail reserves the property and copyright rights to patterns, cost estimates, designs and similar information of a tangible or intangible nature - also in electronic form; they may not be made available to third parties. Umdasch Digital Retail is obliged only to make information and documents designated as confidential by the customer available to third parties with their agreement. 3) Delivery and performance conditions, force majeure, transfer of risk, acceptance, default of acceptance 3.1. The delivery and performance deadlines or periods stipulated in the contracts are only binding if they have been designated as binding in writing by Umdasch Digital Retail . 3.2 Every delivery and performance deadline shall be agreed according to the expected capability of Umdasch Digital Retail and is considered subject to self-delivery in good time and unforeseen circumstances or hindrances, irrespective of whether these arise at Umdasch Digital Retail or at the manufacturer/supplier, especially force majeure. Force majeure applies to all circumstances independent of the will and influence of the contracting parties, such as natural disasters, government actions, decisions on the part of authorities, denial of official approval, seizure, blockades, embargoes, war and other military conflicts, mobilisation, civil unrest, sabotage, terrorist attacks, industrial action, lockout and other labour disturbances and labour disputes of any kind, shortage of raw materials, delayed material deliveries beyond one’s control or other such circumstances, which are serious, cannot be foreseen and are not the fault of Umdasch Digital Retail and occur after the conclusion of this contract. Events of this kind correspondingly prolong the delivery and performance deadline even if they arise during a delay that is already taking place. In this case, the grace period set by the customer shall also be extended for the duration of the unforeseen event. Umdasch Digital Retail retains the right to rescind the contract if the delivery and performance delay lasts for more than six weeks due to an event specified above, for which Umdasch Digital Retail is not responsible. In this case, Umdasch Digital Retail shall immediately inform the customer and reimburse any compensation already yielded. 3.3. Should Umdasch Digital Retail fall behind in a delivery by more than eight weeks, the

customer may rescind the contract after a reasonable grace period, set out in writing. 3.4. Should the delivery or performance of services be delayed due to circumstances caused by the customer, they shall bear the costs incurred by Umdasch Digital Retail . 3.5. Umdasch Digital Retail is entitled to reasonable partial delivery and partial performance. 3.6. Umdasch Digital Retail is entitled to fulfil the order in whole or in part using subcontractors, according to its discretion. 3.7. The risk shall pass to the customer once the contractual object has left the plant and even if partial delivery occurs or Umdasch Digital Retail has accepted other services, e.g. shipping costs or delivery and installation. For shipping in conjunction with provision of services, risk passes to the customer as soon as Umdasch Digital Retail has transferred the shipment to the carrier. Insofar as acceptance has taken place, this is deemed transfer of risk. This must be effective immediately on the acceptance date, or alternatively after notification from Umdasch Digital Retail of readiness for acceptance. The customer may not refuse acceptance in the case of a minor defect. 3.8. Should shipping or acceptance be delayed or remain incomplete due to circumstances not attributed to Umdasch Digital Retail , risk passes to the customer from the day of notification of shipment or readiness for acceptance. Umdasch Digital Retail undertakes to take out insurance at the customer’s expense, when desired. If the customer does not accept delivery of hardware for any reason or Umdasch Digital Retail is not able to deliver hardware in good time because the customer has not made the necessary instructions, documents, licenses or approvals available, this shall result in the transfer of risk to the customer. Furthermore, Umdasch Digital Retail is entitled to a.) store the hardware until actual delivery and charge the customer for all related costs and expenses, including storage and insurance, and b.) to sell the hardware at the best achievable price, based on at least two written offers obtained in advance, if Umdasch Digital Retail has first notified the customer in writing of the intended sale, the customer has in this communication been given a period of three weeks from the date of dispatch in the communication to cancel all actions owed and the customer has not complied with this time limit. The reasonable storage, insurance and selling expenses of Umdasch Digital Retail must first be deducted from the sales proceeds obtained. Any amount then remaining must also be imputed to the purchase price that continues to be owed by the customer. Potential profit surplus is conceded to Umdasch Digital Retail . 3.9. Unless agreed otherwise, Umdasch Digital Retail is neither obliged to transfer a user manual or other documentation (e.g. for the supply of software or hardware), nor to hold training sessions. 3.10. The availability of services rendered by Umdasch Digital Retail is the result of the contractual agreement, order confirmation or a concluded service contract and, where applicable, related agreements. 4) Intellectual property rights 4.1. Umdasch Digital Retail is entitled to all rights derived from patent, brand, design protection, semiconductor protection and/or copyright from the agreed services or otherwise from the creation of the services made available to the customer, unless agreed otherwise. 4.2. The customer shall receive only the non-exclusive and non-transferable right to use these services after payment of the agreed fee in full, in compliance with the contractual specifications, at the agreed installation site, for the contractually agreed purpose and to the extent of the number of licenses purchased. 4.3. Only a permit to use the product shall be acquired via the contract at hand - with the exception of point 4.17. If the customer is involved in the manufacture or the userspecific adaptation of the software, the customer shall not acquire any rights in addition to the use set out in the contract at hand. Umdasch Digital Retail shall give rights of use to the customer in respect of software and databases only to the extent that this is necessary for the practical fulfilment of the contractual relationship. If the object of the contract is the creation or use of databases, the customer shall acquire no rights to the programming service beyond use in line with database use. 4.4. All other rights are reserved by Umdasch Digital Retail or their licensors; without their prior written agreement, the customer is therefore not entitled to duplicate, change, make software, databases, graphic designs or other property available to third parties, or to use them other than at the agreed installation site, for the contractually agreed purpose and to the extent of the purchased number of licenses, unless agreed otherwise or obliged by the nature of the mandate. 4.5. A transfer of source codes from Umdasch Digital Retail to the customer is - unless agreed otherwise - owed neither for standard nor bespoke software. 4.6. The manufacture of copies for archive and data protection purposes shall be permitted to the customer under the condition that no express ban by the licensor or third parties is contained in the software and that all copyright and property endorsements in these copies are also transferred unchanged. 4.7. Should the disclosure of interfaces be necessary for the creation of interoperability in the software, Umdasch Digital Retail shall only do so after separate instruction, but without being obliged to adopt such a mandate. Decompilation by the customer is only authorised if Umdasch Digital Retail rejects such a mandate. In this case, the results may be used exclusively for the creation of interoperability. In the case of unauthorised decompilation, Umdasch Digital Retail has a claim to reasonable remuneration and/or compensation. 4.8. Proprietary notices, trademarks, network identifications or similar on services from Umdasch Digital Retail or third parties may not be removed, edited, altered or made illegible by the customer. 4.9. Offers, execution documents such as plans or sketches, patterns, catalogues, illustrations and other technical documents and similar of Umdasch Digital Retail remain the intellectual property of Umdasch Digital Retail and are subject to relevant intellectual property rights conditions, in particular with regard to reproduction, imitation, competition and data protection.
