PART B              SPECIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS ARTURO DESIGN FLOORS

Article 12                      (applicability and hierarchy)

1. These special terms and conditions apply together with the general terms and conditions of part A if a UZIN UTZ Nederland Arturo design floor is designed, developed, sold, delivered and/or installed.
2. The provisions in part B of these terms and conditions only exclude the applicability of the provisions in part A to the extent that those provisions are expressly deviated from in part B.

• Provisions from the design agreement and / or supply agreement referred to in article 13 and/or 14;
• Part B of these terms and conditions;
• Part A of these terms and conditions.

Article 13           (design agreement contractual relationships)

1. If the contracting party of UZIN UTZ Nederland gives UZIN UTZ Nederland the assignment for the design and development of an Arturo design, UZIN UTZ Nederland, as party accepting the assignment, will develop an Arturo design, a floor design and floor concept that has been designed and developed by or by order of the designers of the Arturo design studio belonging to UZIN UTZ Nederland, to the best of its knowledge and ability. In this respect UZIN UTZ Nederland is under no obligation to achieve a result.
2. The design agreement sets out the indebtedness in respect of the design costs for the Arturo design as well as the manner of calculation and invoicing thereof.
3. If the contracting party of UZIN UTZ Nederland sets preconditions or criteria or gives or wishes to give instructions, directions and suchlike which the Arturo design must comply with, UZIN UTZ Nederland is only obliged to take such into consideration in respect of the Arturo design to be designed by it, if these have been explicitly included in the design agreement and provided that they have been described there in a clear and comprehensible manner.
4. Any preconditions, directions, instructions or criteria and suchlike set by the contracting party of UZIN UTZ Nederland as referred to in paragraph 3 do not affect the artistic independence and freedom of UZIN UTZ Nederland to apply or implement these in respect of the Arturo design to be designed by it as it sees fit and using its own style.
5. In assessing whether or not UZIN UTZ Nederland has carried out the assignment referred to in paragraph 1 in a correct or proper way, the aesthetic value will not be taken into consideration.
6. UZIN UTZ Nederland initially designs and develops a provisional Arturo design that will be presented to its contracting party for approval before the Arturo installer, this being an installer trained at UZIN UTZ Nederland's Arturo Training Centre to install Arturo design floors and certified by UZIN UTZ Nederland as Arturo Application Partner, installs the Arturo floor based thereon in accordance with the implementation agreement as referred to in article 15.
7. If the contracting party of UZIN UTZ Nederland rejects the provisional design, UZIN UTZ Nederland is at least granted an additional period of fourteen (14) days to modify the provisional design to fit the wishes of the contracting party. In such an event the contracting party is obliged to provide specific directions pertaining to what modifications are desired, without affecting the basic premise referred to in paragraph 4.
8. A rejection as referred to in paragraph 7 does not imply a shortcoming and does not give the contracting party of UZIN UTZ Nederland the right to terminate, to compensation or to reimbursement.
9. If the provisional design is rejected again after modification (or repeated modifications) as referred to in paragraph 7 and no final design is created and/or no implementation agreement is concluded, the contracting party of UZIN UTZ Nederland remains obliged to pay the agreed-upon fee for the Arturo design and paragraph 8 applies equally.
10. UZIN UTZ Nederland may engage artists or third parties at its own discretion for the Arturo design to be developed without prior permission from its contracting party, unless this leads to the agreed-upon fee being modified.
11. All intellectual property rights to the Arturo design and, if these rights also vest in the installed Arturo design floor, to the Arturo design floor fully and exclusively remain the property of UZIN UTZ Nederland at all times. Making copies of or applying the Arturo design in another form, in other spaces or locations or changing the design or in any other way reproducing or disclosing the Arturo design is only permitted after prior written permission from UZIN UTZ Nederland.
12. If UZIN UTZ Nederland, in respect of the Arturo design it designed, followed instructions, directions, criteria and suchlike as referred to in paragraph 3 and it appears that the Arturo design it designed infringes intellectual property rights of third parties (partly) as a result thereof, the contracting party indemnifies UZIN UTZ Nederland against claims by third parties on that account.    
13. The contracting party of UZIN UTZ Nederland is not allowed to have the (approved or rejected) Arturo design developed by UZIN UTZ Nederland installed by an installer other than an Arturo installer. Arturo floors may only be installed by Arturo installers.
14.

If the contracting party of UZIN UTZ Nederland fails to do so it owes an immediately payable lump-sum penalty of €500 per day for each day, including parts of a day, that the contracting party of UZIN UTZ Nederland fails to do so, in which case UZIN UTZ Nederland is also entitled to undo or have another party undo all work carried out by the unauthorised installer with the contracting party of UZIN UTZ Nederland bearing the costs involved.
     

Article 14           (supply agreement contractual relationships)

UZIN UTZ Nederland only has additional obligations if these have been expressly and unambiguously stipulated in the supply agreement. 
2. UZIN UTZ Nederland is not responsible for the purchase or choices of specific materials by the Arturo installer for the installation of an Arturo floor, even if UZIN UTZ Nederland has provided a floor advice for UZIN UTZ Nederland's final customer or for a specific project. In that respect the Arturo installer has and will continue to have the decision-making power and is and will remain ultimately responsible. The Arturo installer is the party with expertise pertaining to the on-site installation of Arturo floors. The expertise of UZIN UTZ Nederland only pertains to the development and production of materials required to install an Arturo floor on-site.
3. UZIN UTZ Nederland does not accept any responsibility or liability for all information, guidelines, contract documents texts, overviews, advice, product sheets and suchlike that it has provided to or offers for inspection or as a downloadable file to the Arturo installer and third parties. The Arturo installer is responsible for the use of this information or these sources of information and does so at his own risk.

Article 15           (implementation agreements contractual relationships)

The Arturo installer will never act as a representative of or party having a power of attorney to represent UZIN UTZ Nederland.
2. UZIN UTZ Nederland is not and will never be a contracting party to the implementation agreement. The Arturo installer indemnifies UZIN UTZ Nederland against claims from the final customer and third parties on that account.
3. The Arturo installer refrains from any action - including failures to act - which creates or may create the appearance, impression or trust on the part of the final customer or third parties that:  (1) he is acting in the name of – or as authorised representative of UZIN UTZ Nederland, (2) UZIN UTZ Nederland is a contracting party or one of the contracting parties in respect of the final customer, or (3) that the final customer has direct claims or can bring actions against UZIN UTZ Nederland on any other basis.
4. The final customer can only bring direct claims against UZIN UTZ Nederland if this (1) has been explicitly agreed in writing between UZIN UTZ Nederland and the final customer or (2) if this explicitly arises from a written and original proof of warranty that UZIN UTZ Nederland provided to the final customer.
5. If UZIN UTZ Nederland has direct contact with the final customer in any way or actually delivers materials directly or directly provides an Arturo design to the final customer other than on the basis of a design agreement, UZIN UTZ Nederland, apart from the provisions of paragraph 4, always and exclusively acts as an auxiliary person, as well as in name of - and at the risk and expense of the Arturo installer.
6. UZIN UTZ Nederland accepts no responsibility or liability for the execution or performance of the implementation agreement by the Arturo installer, even if a floor advice has been provided in that respect by or on behalf of UZIN UTZ Nederland.  
7. Arturo designs are always and exclusively developed and provided at the risk and expense of the contracting party of UZIN UTZ Nederland and/or the Arturo installer.
8. Only the Arturo installer assesses and decides if the Arturo design can be developed into - or can be installed as an Arturo floor.

9. If the Arturo installer wishes to engage auxiliary persons for the execution of the implementation agreement or wishes to transfer one of his obligations arising therefrom to a third party, he requires the express written permission from UZIN UTZ Nederland to do so.

[1] ‘actual delivery’ is used here as a translation of aflevering, which is often translated as ‘delivery’ (which, in turn, is a translation of the more general levering). As there is a distinction between levering and aflevering (aflevering is a type of levering, but levering can take other forms), ‘delivery’ is used here as a translation of levering and ‘actual delivery’’ is used here as a translation of aflevering, which under Article 9 paragraph 2 of Book 7 of the Dutch Civil Code means: ‘giving the buyer possession of the item’. ‘actually delivered’ is used in these terms and conditions as a translation of afgeleverde.
