General Terms and Conditions of Purchase-1

HIGH PERFORMANCE PACKAGING 1.1. These general terms and conditions (hereinafter “General Terms”) shall govern all purchases of goods (“Goods”) and/or services (“Services”; Goods and Services together hereinafter “Products”) by a group company of the Coveris Group (hereinafter “Coveris”). The Supplier shall be deemed to accept these General Terms by supplying Goods or providing Services to Coveris unless specifically otherwise agreed in writing between Supplier and Coveris. 1.2. These General Terms shall (i) prevail over any standard terms and conditions of sale used by the Supplier and any other inconsistent terms or conditions contained, or referred to, in the Supplier's quotation, confirmation of order, or specification, or other document supplied by the Supplier, or implied by trade custom, practice or course of dealing, and (ii) apply to all current and future business relations between Supplier and Coveris for the purchase of Products by Coveris, even if not explicitly referred to these General Terms. 2.1. The Supplier's quotation for Products constitutes an offer by the Supplier to supply the Products on these General Terms. No offer placed by the Supplier shall be accepted by Coveris other than by Coveris in writing, at which point the supply and purchase of the Products on these General Terms will be established. 2.2. If there is however no previous quotation by the Supplier, the order of Coveris constitutes an offer to purchase the Products from the Supplier in accordance with these General Terms; whereas this will not apply to Products where Coveris and Supplier have agreed that deliveries shall be made on a call-off basis. The order shall be deemed to be accepted at which point and on which date a contract shall come into existence on the earlier of: (i) the Supplier issuing written acceptance of the order, or (ii) any act by the Supplier consistent with fulfilling the order. Coveris reserves the right to withdraw or revise the order at any time prior to the Supplier's acceptance of the order of Coveris and after Supplier's acceptance of the order if this is reasonable and acceptable for the Supplier. 2.3. Coveris shall have the right to cancel the order for the Products in whole or in part by giving written notice of cancellation at any time prior to delivery or performance. In this event the sole liability of Coveris shall be to pay the Supplier the value for the work in progress relating to the supply or performance of the Products, up to a maximum amount of the price for the Supplies in respect of which Coveris has exercised the right of cancellation, less any amount obtained by the Supplier for selling on such Products or work in progress. The Supplier shall use its best endeavours to mitigate its losses in respect of Products subject to a cancellation and try to use it otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt Coveris is not liable for any loss of anticipated profits or any consequential loss. 2.4. Coveris may provide forecasts of its likely requirements of supplies (“Forecasts”) for one or more months following the month in which the Forecast is placed. While Coveris shall endeavour to provide accurate Forecasts, it shall not be bound by it and an order may vary from the Forecast to which it relates. Forecasts are an estimate only and shall not in any way be construed as a commitment by Coveris to purchase such amounts from the Supplier. Delivered Products which were not ordered
