The parties agree that Seller need not further object to any
specific terms and conditions set by Buyer; such failure to
object to Buyer’s specific terms and conditions is not an
acceptance of any such terms and conditions (and
consequently Article 682 of the Polish Civil Code does not
apply).
In no event shall Seller be liable
for any damages and/or costs due to delay in delivery.
The
obligation to “indemnify and hold harmless” included in
this section shall mean the obligation of Buyer to cover any
damage, costs and expenses suffered or incurred by Seller
and pay the relevant amounts to Seller as well as to release
Seller from any liability towards third parties (Article 392
of the Polish Civil Code).
