CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES 7.4.1 Should either party to the Contract suffer injury or damage to person or property because of any act or omission of the other party or of any of his / her employees, agents or others for whose acts he / she is legally liable, claim shall be made in writing to such other party within a reasonable time after the first observance of such injury or damage.
Latent Defects Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no acceptance, or deemed acceptance, by City pursuant to this Section shall be applicable with respect to any Latent Defects. An acceptance, or deemed acceptance, by City pursuant to this Section shall not mean that City has accepted, or the other party has been relieved of, responsibility for: (i) compliance with the Laws; (ii) the proper application of construction means or methods; or (iii) correcting any portion of the Project if it later is determined that any portion of the Project is inconsistent with the Final Documents and Drawings.
Correction of Defects 35.1 The Engineer shall give notice to the Contractor of any Defects before the end of the Defects Liability Period, which begins at Completion and is defined in the Contract Data. The Defects Liability Period shall be extended for as long as Defects remain to be corrected.
35.2 Every time notice of a Defect is given, the Contractor shall correct the notified Defect within the length of time specified by the Engineer’s notice.
REMEDY OF DEFECTS (a) The BUILDER shall remedy, at its expense, any defects, against which the VESSEL is guaranteed under this Article, by making all necessary repairs or replacements at the SHIPYARD or elsewhere as provided for in (b) hereinbelow. In such case, the VESSEL shall be taken at the BUYER's cost and responsibility to the place selected, ready in all respects for such repairs or replacements and in any event, the BUILDER shall not be responsible for towage, dockage, wharfage, port charges and anything else incurred for the BUYER's getting and keeping the VESSEL ready for such repairing or replacing.
(b) However, if it is impractical (which shall include, but not be limited to, an emergency) to bring the VESSEL to the SHIPYARD, the BUYER may cause the necessary repairs or replacements to be made elsewhere which is deemed by the BUYER with the consent of the BUILDER which shall not be unreasonably withheld, to be suitable for the purpose, provided that, in such event, the BUILDER may forward or supply replacement parts or materials under the terms described in (c) hereinbelow, unless forwarding or supplying thereof under the terms described in (c) hereinbelow would impair or delay the operation or working schedule of the VESSEL. In the event that the BUYER proposes to cause the necessary repairs or replacements to be made to the VESSEL at any shipyard or works other than the SHIPYARD, the BUYER shall first (but in all events as soon as reasonably possible) give the BUILDER notice by email or facsimile of the time and place such repairs will be made, and if the VESSEL is not thereby delayed, or her operation or working schedule is not thereby impaired, the BUILDER shall have the right to verify by its own representative(s) the nature and extent of the defects complained of. The BUILDER shall, in such case, promptly advise the BUYER by email or facsimile, after such examination has been completed, of its acceptance or rejection of the defects as ones that are covered by the guarantee herein provided. Upon the BUILDER's acceptance of the defects as justifying remedy under this Article, or upon award of the arbitration so determining, the BUILDER shall compensate the BUYER an amount equal to the reasonable cost of making the same repairs or replacements at the SHIPYARD.
(c) In the event that it is necessary for the BUILDER to forward a replacement for a defective part under this guarantee, replacement parts shall be shipped to the BUYER under the C.I.F terms to the BUYER's nominated port. The BUILDER reserves the option to retrieve, at the BUILDER's cost, any of the replaced equipment/parts in case defects are remedied in accordance with the provisions in this Article.
(d) Any dispute under this Article shall be referred to arbitration in accordance with the provisions of Article XIII hereof.
Environmental Defects If Buyer determines that with respect to the Asset there exists an Environmental Condition (other than with respect to asbestos, asbestos containing materials, or NORM, and excluding any matter set forth on Schedule 6.10) (in each case, an “Environmental Defect”), then on or prior to the Defect Claim Date, Buyer may give Seller a written notice of such Environmental Defect that sets forth the information required by this Section 3.17 (an “Environmental Defect Notice”). For all purposes of this Agreement and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any Environmental Defect that Buyer fails to timely and properly assert as an Environmental Defect by an Environmental Defect Notice received by Seller on or before the Defect Claim Date. To be effective, an Environmental Defect Notice must set forth (a) a clear description of the matter constituting the alleged Environmental Defect, (b) a description of each Asset (or portion thereof) affected by the alleged Environmental Defect, (c) the estimated proportionate share attributable to the Assets of the estimated Lowest Cost Response to eliminate the alleged Environmental Defect (the “Environmental Defect Amount”), and (d) supporting documents and reasonably necessary for Seller to verify the existence of the alleged Environmental Defect and the Environmental Defect Amount. Buyer shall furnish Seller, on or before the end of each calendar week prior to the Defect Claim Date, Environmental Defect Notices with respect to any Environmental Defects that any of Buyer’s or any of its Affiliate’s employees, representatives, attorneys, or other environmental personnel or contractors discover or become aware of during the preceding calendar week, which notice may be preliminary in nature and supplemented prior to the Defect Claim Date; provided that notwithstanding this sentence, any Environmental Defect Notice shall be deemed timely if received by Seller prior to the Defect Claim Date.
Liability for defects 5.1 The Customer is required to inspect the delivered Products without undue delay after delivery and to report any defects.
5.2 The delivered Products are deemed to have been approved if XXXX, with regard to obvious defects, obvious shortages or other defects which were or would have been identifiable in the course of an immediate, careful inspection, has not received notifi- cation of the defect within 7 days of delivery of the product, or otherwise – in the case of unclear or hidden defects – within 7 days of the discovery of the defect or the time at which the defect was identifiable to the Customer in the course of normal use of the Product without closer inspection.
5.3 In the event of a justified complaint, the Customer will be entitled to two attempts to rectify defects or make a replacement delivery at XXXX'x discretion free of charge within a reasonable period of time. Shortages will be delivered subsequently. If two attempts to rectify defects or make a replacement delivery within a reasonable period of time are unsuccessful, the Customer will be entitled to the statutory rights, subject to the provisions of clause 7. Subsequent performance will include neither removal of the defective item nor reassembly if XXXX was not originally required to carry out assembly. The expenses required for the purpose of inspection and subsequent performance, in particular transport, travel, labour and material costs (not: removal and assembly costs), insofar as these are not increased because the subject matter of the contract is located at a place other than our Customer's place of performance, will be borne by XXXX if there is actually a defect. Otherwise, XXXX may demand compensation from the Customer for the costs incurred by the unjustified request for rectification of the defect (in particular inspection and transport costs), unless the lack of defectiveness was not identifiable for the Customer. XXXX can refuse to rectify defects or make a replacement delivery if the Customer does not fulfil its payment obligations towards XXXX to an extent that corresponds to the defect-free part of the service provided.
5.4 No warranty will be assumed, in particular, in the following cases: Unsuitable or in- correct use by the Customer or by third parties instructed by the Customer, in particular through the use of insufficiently qualified personnel, faulty assembly or commission- ing, natural wear and tear (wearing parts), faulty or negligent handling, improper maintenance, unsuitable operating materials, defective construction work, unsuitable construction land, chemical, electrochemical or electrical influences, provided XXXX is not responsible for these circumstances.
5.5 XXXX is also not required to provide a warranty insofar as defects of Products are based on defective materials supplied by the Customer or insofar as defects of Products are based on the fact that the Customer has prescribed the execution of the order ac- cording to construction plans of third parties.
5.6 A delivery of used Products agreed with the Customer in the individual case is made to the exclusion of any warranty, unless XXXX has caused the defect intentionally or through gross negligence or has fraudulently concealed the defect.
5.7 The warranty period will be one year from delivery or, where acceptance was stipu- lated, from acceptance. Replaced parts will become our property and must be sent to us at our request. If shipping, assembly or commissioning is delayed through no fault of our own, our liability will expire no later than twelve months after the transfer of risk.
5.8 The right of recovery in accordance with sections 445a, 445b German Civil Code (BGB) is excluded, unless XXXX has caused the defect intentionally or by gross neg- ligence or has fraudulently concealed the defect.
CLAIMS FOR ADDITIONAL COST 12.3.1 If the Contractor wishes to make a claim for an increase in the Contract Sum, he shall give the Architect written notice thereof within twenty days after the occurrence of the event giving rise to such claim. This notice shall be given by the Contractor before proceeding to execute the Work, except in an emergency endangering life or property in which case the Contractor shall proceed in accordance with Paragraph 10.3 of these General Conditions. No such claim shall be valid unless so made. If the State and the Contractor cannot agree on the amount of the adjustment in the Contract Sum, it shall be determined by the Architect. Any change in the Contract Sum resulting from such claim shall be authorized by Change Order.
12.3.2 If the Contractor claims that additional cost is involved because of, but not limited to, (1) any order by the State to stop the Work pursuant to Paragraph 3.3 of these General Conditions where the Contractor was not at fault, or (2) failure of payment by the State pursuant to Paragraph 9.7(of these General Conditions), the Contractor shall make such claim as provided in Subparagraph 12.3.1 of this agreement.
12.3.3 The Architect will have authority to order minor changes in the Work not involving an adjustment in the Contract Sum or an extension of the Contract Time and not inconsistent with the intent of the Contract Documents. Such changes shall be effected by written order and shall be binding on the State and Contractor within 10 days unless the Contractor or the State objects to the change in writing.
Claims for Additional Time If the Contractor wishes to make a Claim for an increase in the Contract Time, written notice as provided herein shall be given. The Contractor’s Claim shall include an estimate of cost and of probable effect of delay on progress of the Work. In the case of a continuing delay, only one Claim is necessary.
Remedies for Environmental Defects (a) If any Environmental Defect described in a notice delivered in accordance with Section 4.03 is not cured on or before the Closing, and Seller has not elected to exclude the affected Assets from this sale or Buyer and Seller have not agreed for Seller to indemnify Buyer for the Environmental Defect, then the Purchase Price shall be reduced by the Environmental Defect Value of such Environmental Defect as agreed by the Parties.
(b) If Buyer and Seller have not agreed as to the validity of any asserted Environmental Defect, or if the Parties have not agreed on the Environmental Defect Value therefor, and if Seller shall not have elected to exclude the affected Assets from this sale pursuant to Section 4.03(b)(ii), then either Party shall have the right to elect to have the validity of the asserted Environmental Defect, and/or the Environmental Defect Value for such Environmental Defect, determined by an Independent Expert pursuant to Section 16.03. If the validity of any such asserted Environmental Defect or the amount of any such Environmental Defect Value is not determined by the Closing, the Asset affected by such disputed Environmental Defect shall be excluded from the Closing and the Purchase Price paid at the Closing shall be reduced by the Allocated Value of that Asset. Upon resolution of such dispute, the Allocated Value of that Asset less the Environmental Defect Value, if any, found to be attributable to such Environmental Defect shall, subject to this Section 4.04, be paid by Buyer to Seller and the Asset conveyed to Buyer, if that is part of the mutually agreed settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Buyer or Seller shall have the right to exclude an Asset from the sale if the Environmental Defect Value exceeds the Allocated Value of the Asset(s) affected thereby.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) if the Environmental Defect Value for a given individual Environmental Defect does not exceed $50,000, then no adjustment to the Purchase Price shall be made for such Environmental Defect; (ii) if the aggregate adjustment to the Purchase Price determined in accordance with this Agreement for Title Defects and Environmental Defects does not exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price prior to any adjustments thereto, then no adjustment of the Purchase Price shall be made therefore and (iii) if the aggregate adjustment to the Purchase Price determined in accordance with this Agreement for Title Defects and Environmental Defects does exceed three percent (3%) of the Purchase Price prior to any adjustments thereto, then the Purchase Price shall only be adjusted by the amount of such excess.
Defects a. The Customer shall inspect the Goods upon delivery and will, within 48 hours, notify the Company of any defects, short deliveries or any failure to fulfill any quotation or order.
b. The Customer will, within a reasonable time following delivery, grant the Company access to the Goods in order to inspect for any alleged defects.
c. Should the Customer fail to notify the Company within the specified period then the Goods shall be deemed to be in compliance with the order and free from any defect whatsoever.
