has confirmed that order to the buyer in writing.

2.2 In the event of the buyer requiring changes to a contract’s implementation after it has been
formulated, M-LOCKS shall be free to decide at its own discretion whether and, if so, under

contract.

2.3 Amendments to the contract of any nature whatsoever shall not come into force until they have
been agreed in writing between M-LOCKS and the buyer.

compliance with the buyer’s (payment) obligations shall be charged in full to the buyer. The
extrajudicial costs are set at 15% of the invoice amount, with a minimum of EUR 250, without
any evidence of that being required. The aforementioned costs shall be payable from the time at
which the claim is passed on to a lawyer, bailiff or debt collection agency, irrespective of
whether the buyer has been informed of this.

payable amount against any counterclaim that he has or alleges he has against M-LOCKS, or to
suspend his payment obligation.
