The Customer shall not request the amount of the rebate for annual quantity (crediting) in any other form; it can be used only in the form described herein, as compensation.

The order of crediting the Customer’s payments

Szeplast shall use the amounts paid by the Customer as per the Contract to fulfil the Customer’s existing payment obligations (arising from contractual relationship) in the following order:

  1. paying for Szeplast’s unpaid expenses, costs, fees and for damages to Szeplast proportionately;
  2. paying for due but unpaid interests on overdue payments arising from contractual relationship;
  3. paying any due but unpaid purchase price proportionately; and
  4. paying for any due but unpaid amount arising from the contractual relationship.
