Staffing, vehicle, routes The vehicles used by the contractor are generally dispatched with one truck driver. In the event of a written agreement for 2-man staffing and payment of a freight surcharge, the contractor will provide two drivers, which can reduce the risk of theft. This is recommended due to the current situation of danger in European freight traffic. As a rule, the statutory driving and rest breaks can only be consumed on "conventional parking spaces". Should the principal wish to consume the prescribed driving and rest breaks on guarded parking spaces, this must be explicitly notified to the contractor in writing in advance and can be agreed by paying a surcharge. The vehicles used are usually ordinary tarpaulin semi-trailers. In order to minimise possible dangers, in particular the risk of theft, it is recommended, however, that the contractor be explicitly commissioned in writing and by paying a surcharge with the use of a so-called box semi-trailer, as this offers increased security. The routes chosen by the contractor are the fastest and most cost-effective routes. Should the principal wish for a special route in order to minimise possible dangers, the contractor must also be informed of this explicitly and in writing in advance and another route can then be agreed upon against payment of a freight surcharge.

Rights of lien and retention The contractor has the right of lien and the right of retention on the goods or other items in his power of disposal for all due and not due claims against the principal to which he is entitled under the present contract. If the principal does not explicitly state the owner of the goods in the consignment note when placing the order, the contractor can assume that the freight is the property of the principal. The principal is entitled to prohibit the exercise of the lien if he grants the contractor an equivalent means of security (e.g. bank guarantee). 18. Xxxxxxxxx The contractor is entitled to charge the principal demurrage in the amount of € 450,- per day (at least € 100,- per hour for a standing time of less than 24 hours); the contractor is entitled to the demurrage even if the principal is not at fault. A demurrage claim arises if a waiting time/standing time of 1.5 hours in total is exceeded. In the case of special transport, the contractor is entitled to a demurrage charge of € 600,- per day (at least € 120,- per hour for a standing time of less than 24 hours). 19.
