The price is established on the basis of current exchange rate of PLN/EUR as per date of the invoice. Each increase of the exchange rate from the set date of payment to the date of actual payment (the date when the sum of payments is entered into Seller’s bank account) shall burden the Buyer, and will be treated as a price rise, which will be settled by an adjustment invoice.

If there are any additional costs or interest incurred as a result of a delay, these shall be covered by payments made by the Buyer.
If, at any time after a sale of Goods, there are any substantive doubts concerning the Buyer's ability to pay or his credit rating, or when such fact which has taken place at the time of concluding the agreement is disclosed at a later time, the Seller may, at his discretion, withhold deliveries until all overdue payments including accrued interest and costs are satisfied, and may request appropriate payment security and all the Buyer's obligations shall be immediately due and payable. If the Buyer refuses or fails to pay or submit appropriate payment security, the Seller may terminate the agreement after 7 working days without any compensation to the Buyer.
