II. PRICE AND CONCLUSION OF THE AGREEMENT
1. The Seller’s proposals with an indication of the price of the Goods and other conditions for the execution of the order submitted by phone or via e-mail do not constitute an offer within the meaning of the Civil Code, but an invitation to conclude a contract. All assurances, promises and guarantees made orally by the Seller’s employees towards the Buyer are not binding.
. 2. The contract is concluded when both parties sign it, or after the other party receives a signed copy of the contract from the counterparty. The parties exclude the possibility of tacit (implied) conclusion of the contract or its amendment.
3. The agreement may be concluded in electronic form via e-mail. The contract signed by the Buyer should contain all the elements indicated in the AGREEMENT, in particular the name, tax identification number and address of the Buyer, assortment, quantity of ordered goods, date and place of delivery, form and date of payment agreed with ALBIO sp. z o. o. and be signed by an authorized person to represent the Buyer.
4. The prices provided by the Seller in the invitation to conclude the contract and in the AGREEMENT are net prices and will be increased by the value added tax at the rate applicable on the date of the invoice.
5. If the price is indicated in a currency other than zloty (PLN), it is assumed that the Parties have agreed on the price in zlotys (PLN) by converting it from a foreign currency to zlotys (PLN) at the average selling rate of a given currency at Bank Spółdzielczy in Ostrów Mazowiecka with its registered office in Ostrów Mazowiecka or ING Bank Śląski S.A. announced on the day of issuing the invoice.
6. The Buyer undertakes to pay the price within the time limit specified in the AGREEMENT or, if the time limit is not specified therein, within 14 days from the invoice date. The payment is deemed to have been made when the funds are credited to the Seller’s bank account.
7. If, after the conclusion of the contract, there are circumstances justifying an increase in the price of the ordered goods, such as: an increase in customs duties, the introduction of additional customs duties, the introduction of other public law burdens, the Seller has the right to an appropriate, unilateral increase in the price of the goods, indicating the reason for the increase. The increase may not be higher than the actual increase in the price-setting elements and does not require an amendment to the contract
8. All declarations and notifications of the Parties in connection with the conclusion or performance of the agreement should be made in writing and delivered to the other party by registered mail, courier or in person via e-mail, if they explicitly and unequivocally allow such a possibility.
9.If, for reasons beyond the control of the Seller, the Seller will not be able to perform the contract in whole or in part, he will be entitled to withdraw from the contract in whole or in part within 3 months from the conclusion of the contract. The seller is not liable for any damage caused by this.
10. The date of delivery of the Goods is specified in the AGREEMENT, and if the performance of the contract depends on the advance payment, the delivery date is postponed by the delay in the advance payment.
11. If the Parties conclude more than one AGREEMENT and the Buyer is late with the payment of the price on the basis of any of them, the Seller has the right to withhold the performance of all concluded agreements (including in particular the release of the Goods) until the Buyer settles all outstanding debts with interest. If the Buyer’s delay with the payment of arrears to the Seller exceeds 30 days, the Seller may – at its discretion – withdraw from the sales contract to which the arrears relate or all contracts without setting an additional deadline. The seller is not liable for any damage resulting from these reasons.
12. In the event of receiving justified information about the deterioration of the Buyer’s financial condition, the Seller shall have the rights indicated in the preceding paragraph, unless the Buyer establishes additional collateral acceptable to him. The assessment of the Buyer’s financial condition and the acceptance or not of additional collateral is solely at the Seller’s discretion.
13. The Buyer has no right to set off its claims against the Seller from the Seller’s claims under contracts for the sale of Goods.
14. If the Seller has granted the Buyer a trade credit (deferred payment), he may limit or withdraw it at any time. This right does not apply to receivables already due.

16. If the Buyer is late with payments due on the basis of more than one invoice, ALBIO sp. z o.o. has the right to credit any payment made by the Buyer in the first place against interest for delay, and then the most recently due receivables. This provision repeals the debtor’s rights referred to in Art. 451 §1 of the Civil Code. At the same time, ALBIO Sp. z o. o. reserves the right to make a set-off (compensation) for other claims and liabilities, in accordance with the provisions of the Civil Code.

19. The Buyer undertakes to immediately notify ALBIO Sp. z o. o. about each change of its registered office or place of residence and address for the delivery of correspondence. Failure to notify means that deliveries made to the addresses indicated in the AGREEMENT are considered effective.

In the event of ineffective expiry of the deadline for payment, ALBIO sp. z o. o. has the right to request the Buyer to return the Goods issued to him. Albio Sp. z o. o. may also demand compensation in the event of: a) non-return of the Goods, b) when the returned Goods show traces of use or c) when the returned Goods are damaged, in particular when the value of the Goods returned by the Buyer is lower than the price that the Buyer should have paid for the received Goods.
