(2) These GTC shall apply exclusively. Deviating, conflicting or supplementary general terms and conditions of the customer shall only become part of the contract if and insofar as CONIUNCTA® has expressly agreed to their validity.

2. CONCLUSION OF THE CONTRACT

(1) The contract is concluded with the issue of a written order confirmation by CONIUNCTA® or with a delivery arranged by the customer through CONIUNCTA®. Any prior declarations by the customer, in particular letters of confirmation, are only deemed to be an offer to conclude a contract. Verbal promises made by CONIUNCTA® prior to the conclusion of this contract are not legally binding and verbal agreements between the contracting parties are replaced by the written contract, unless it is expressly stated in each case that they continue to be binding.

(2) Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all offers, the documents belonging to the offers such as product details, price lists and other documents from CONIUNCTA® are non-binding. Only the descriptions in the written order confirmation from CONIUNCTA® are authoritative for the definition of the quality of a CONIUNCTA® product or a service to be provided by CONIUNCTA®.

Customer syntheses are based on preliminary concepts that have been created to the best of our knowledge on the basis of literature research and our own experience in the synthesis of similar molecules.

(1) CONIUNCTA® retains title to the delivered CONIUNCTA® products until full receipt of the contractually agreed payments for CONIUNCTA®'s claims arising from the underlying contract (delivery of CONIUNCTA® products) and any business relationships with the customer preceding this contract for similar CONIUNCTA® products, including statutory claims. The customer is obliged to mark the CONIUNCTA® products that are not yet his property accordingly.

(5) Any processing or transformation of the CONIUNCTA® products subject to retention of title by the customer shall always be carried out for CONIUNCTA®.

In all other respects, the same applies to the new item created by processing as to the CONIUNCTA® products subject to retention of title.

If the CONIUNCTA® products subject to retention of title are inseparably combined or mixed with other items not belonging to CONIUNCTA®, CONIUNCTA® shall acquire co-ownership of the new item in the ratio of the value of the CONIUNCTA® products subject to retention of title (final invoice amount including VAT) to the other combined or mixed items at the time of combination or mixing.

(1) The subject matter of the contract is exclusively the CONIUNCTA® product with the properties and features as well as the intended use in accordance with the individual contractual agreement and the product specification on which the individual contract with the customer is based or the certificate of analysis [Section 3 (2)]. There is no defect and the warranty is excluded if and to the extent that

- the defect is due to the CONIUNCTA® products not being transported and/or stored protected from light, or

- the defect is attributable to primary and secondary packaging materials provided by the customer, or

(3) CONIUNCTA® reserves the right to deliver 10% more or less of the order quantity due to production and material-specific particularities. Differences in quantity will be compensated within the framework of a follow-up order.

(4) The customer is obliged to carefully inspect the delivered CONIUNCTA® product immediately after delivery to him or to the third party designated by him.

With regard to other defects, CONIUNCTA® products are deemed to have been approved by the customer if CONIUNCTA® does not receive the notification of defects within five working days of the time at which the defect became apparent; however, if the defect was already recognizable to the customer at an earlier time during normal use, this earlier time is decisive for the start of the notification period. At the request of CONIUNCTA®, a CONIUNCTA® product that is the subject of a complaint must be returned to CONIUNCTA® carriage paid. If the complaint is justified, CONIUNCTA® shall reimburse the costs of the cheapest shipping route; this shall not apply if the costs increase because the CONIUNCTA® product is located at a place other than the place of intended use.

(5) In the event of material defects in the delivered CONIUNCTA® product, CONIUNCTA® is initially obliged and entitled to rectify the defect or make a replacement delivery at its discretion within a reasonable period of time. In the event of

failure, i.e. the impossibility, unreasonableness, refusal or unreasonable delay of the repair or replacement delivery, the customer may withdraw from the contract or reduce the purchase price appropriately.

(6) CONIUNCTA® is entitled to refuse non-fulfilment entirely if it is only associated with disproportionate costs or is impossible for other reasons. Further rights of the customer remain unaffected.

(7) The warranty period is one year and begins with the delivery to the customer or another recipient named by the customer or from the time of acceptance, if and insofar as acceptance is required. This period does not apply to claims for damages by the customer arising from injury to life, limb or health or from intentional or grossly negligent breaches of duty by CONIUNCTA® or its vicarious agents, which in each case become time-barred in accordance with the statutory provisions.

(8) CONIUNCTA® products may be products that require official approval. It is the responsibility of the customer to obtain any necessary official approvals/certificates and to enquire about the requirements prior to placing an order and to inform CONIUNCTA® of this.

The limitations of liability resulting from the above sentence do not apply if CONIUNCTA® has fraudulently concealed a defect or has assumed a guarantee for the quality of the goods. The same applies to claims by the customer under the Product Liability Act.

Any further liability on the part of CONIUNCTA® is excluded.

(3) Insofar as CONIUNCTA® provides technical information or acts in an advisory capacity and this information or advice is not part of the contractually agreed scope of services owed by it, this is provided free of charge and to the exclusion of any liability.

11. CLARIFYING NOTES ON INSURANCE COVERAGE AND REGULATORY NOTES

(1) In the event of an indemnity agreement, reference is made to the following clause from the insurance contracts between CONIUNCTA® and AXA Versicherung AG with regard to the scope of insurance cover for the services and products of CONIUNCTA®: "Insurance cover exists for the indemnification agreed by the policyholder in favor of its customer or client against claims for damages by third parties due to personal injury, property damage or resulting financial losses caused by products manufactured or supplied by the policyholder or work or other services performed by the policyholder. work performed or other services rendered by the policyholder. The prerequisite is that the claim is attributable to a defect that already existed at the time when the product left the policyholder's sphere of control or when the policyholder completed its work and/or services. If there is contributory negligence/causation on the part of the customer or client benefiting from the indemnity declaration, the indemnity declaration is only covered to the extent that this corresponds to the policyholder's share of fault/causation, even if the agreement stipulates otherwise. The indemnified company does not acquire any direct claims against AXA Versicherung AG."

(2) It is the responsibility of the customer to provide suitable insurance cover for possible claims made against it by its customers, insofar as the claim is attributable to errors in its area of responsibility.

(3) Furthermore, CONIUNCTA® points out that the insurance cover only applies within the European Union. If and insofar as the customer intends to sell CONIUNCTA® products outside Europe, he shall inform CONIUNCTA® of this at the latest when placing the order and obtain CONIUNCTA®'s consent. The sale of CONIUNCTA® products outside Europe is not permitted without the consent of CONIUNCTA®.

This also applies to any property rights and know-how that arise during the development and manufacture of private label products or customer syntheses. The customer is not entitled to use any information provided to him that relates to registered and unregistered property rights and know-how of CONIUNCTA® for purposes outside of this contract (e.g. own production).

(2) If, after the effective conclusion of the contract between CONIUNCTA® and the customer, infringements of property rights are asserted against the customer by third parties and the use of CONIUNCTA® products is impaired or prohibited as a result, CONIUNCTA® shall, at its own discretion, modify or replace the CONIUNCTA® products within a reasonable period of time so that they no longer affect the property rights of third parties, but nevertheless correspond to the contractually agreed quality. Instead of the aforementioned procedure, CONIUNCTA® is entitled to reverse the contract concluded with the customer and take back the CONIUNCTA® products against reimbursement of the remuneration paid by the customer after deduction of appropriate compensation for the value of products that cannot be returned.

(3) If claims are made against the customer by third parties due to an alleged infringement of property rights by CONIUNCTA® products, the customer must leave it to CONIUNCTA® to make the sole decision on the conduct of any resulting disputes. In particular, the customer may not reach a settlement or make any other concessions without the prior written consent of CONIUNCTA®. CONIUNCTA® shall bear the entire costs of any legal dispute that may become necessary.

(4) CONIUNCTA® shall not be liable for infringements of property rights if CONIUNCTA® products have been used in a form not authorized by CONIUNCTA®.

(5) The customer guarantees that the specifications provided by him do not infringe any third-party property rights. If claims are made against CONIUNCTA® by third parties in this context, the customer is obliged to indemnify CONIUNCTA® against claims by third parties due to infringements of industrial property rights, insofar as these claims by third parties are attributable to the customer specifications.

13. CONFIDENTIALITY

The customer is obliged to keep secret all information made available to him or which has become known to him in connection with the contract, including information about the nature of CONIUNCTA® products and about analysis, development, synthesis and process technology.

14. FINAL PROVISIONS

(1) In case of doubt, the provisions of these GTC shall remain binding in their remaining parts even if individual provisions are legally invalid. The parties undertake to replace ineffective provisions with provisions that come as close as possible to the intended economic success. The same applies to any gaps in the contract.

(2) Amendments or additions to these GTC and confirmed orders must be made in writing. This also applies to any amendments to this written form clause.

(3) The contract concluded between the parties shall be governed exclusively by the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

(4) In the event of disputes in connection with the contract concluded between the parties, the Regional Court of Cologne shall have exclusive jurisdiction. Notwithstanding this, CONIUNCTA® remains entitled to bring an action at the customer's general place of jurisdiction.

(5) CONIUNCTA® is entitled, at its own discretion, to have disputes arising from or in connection with the contract, including all questions regarding its existence, validity or termination, decided by arbitration in Paris in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce ("ICC") instead of by ordinary courts. The arbitral tribunal shall consist of 3 arbitrators. The language of the arbitration proceedings shall be English. In the event that the customer intends to bring an action, CONIUNCTA® shall be obliged, at the customer's request, to decide within a reasonable period of time set by the customer whether to refer the matter to arbitration. If CONIUNCTA® does not make a decision within the reasonable period of time set by the customer or if CONIUNCTA® decides not to refer the matter to arbitration, CONIUNCTA®'s right to refer the matter to arbitration shall lapse.
