These General Conditions also apply to the provision of the Services by the other party, when the Commissioning Party involves other Parties in order to provide the Services.

-
Offers, quotations and rates do not automatically apply to re-orders and/or new assignments.
Article 4. The Service
-
AMPM always provides its services according an obligation of means and it will not guarantee with regard to the result of its service, unless Parties explicitly agree otherwise in writing.
-
AMPM will implement the Agreement to the best of one’s knowledge and ability and in accordance with the laid down requirements for a professional party. If and as far as a proper implementation requires this, AMPM has the right to let third parties execute certain activities, at the discretion of AMPM. The applicability of article 7:404, 7:407 and 7:409 BW will explicitly be excluded.
-
An agreed term is considered as a final deadline, only when that is explicitly determined in writing in the Agreement. In all other cases the agreed term shall be regarded as indicative.

Article 5. Commissioning Party’s obligations

The Commissioning Party undertakes to provide all necessary information and cooperation which AMPM requires in order to provide the Services. AMPM may suspend the activities as long as Commissioning Party does not comply to the obligation in this provision. AMPM shall never be liable for any damage and/or delay caused by not, not timely, or flawed complying to the duty of disclosure and obligation to cooperate as referred to in this article.

If the Agreement is terminated at any time and at that moment Services have already been implemented, the already implemented Services and the related payment obligation of the Commissioning Party will not be subjected to any obligation to undo, unless the Commissioning Party can prove that AMPM is in default with regard to specifically the Services. The amounts that have been invoiced prior to the termination by AMPM regarding the proper implementation or delivered performance in the framework of the Agreement remain due in full and are repayable on demand at the moment of termination.

-
If the Commissioning Party believes that the amount of the invoice is incorrect, or that there is any other inadequacy in the invoice, it shall immediately inform AMPM accompanied by convincing evidence of its position. Contestation of (a part of) an invoice does not suspend the payment obligation of the Commissioning Party with regard to (the undisputed part of) an invoice.
-
AMPM is entitled to change its rates at any time. AMPM shall inform the Commissioning Party at least 2 (two) months prior to an adjustment of rates.

The Commissioning Party must take a period of notion of 1 (one) month into consideration with that.
