The Lessee authorizes GEFA to collect from its account Number at the XXXXXXXXXXXX (Bank Routing Number ) XXXXXXXX

With the first lease payment, GEFA will invoice a one-time processing fee in the amount of EUR 250.00 + 16% sales tax EUR 40.00 = EUR 290.00

The parties to the contract agree that the lease payments to be made by the Lessee, in the case of a cancellation of the Lease Contract before the cancellation date on which, for the first time, no termination payment in accordance with § 9 of the Lease Conditions must be made, do not cover the acquisition or manufacturing costs, as well as the ancillary costs including GEFA’s financing costs. The Lessee correspondingly recognizes its duty to pay the full amortization of GEFA by paying a termination payment to GEFA, as provided in § 9 of the Lease Conditions on the reverse hereof.

The Making of the Contract

The Lessee offers GEFA Leasing GmbH – hereinafter called GEFA – the execution of this Lease Contract on the following conditions and those listed on the reverse hereof. It authorizes GEFA, through an agreement with the Supplier, to take its place under the conditions negotiated by it, including the Supplier’s delivery conditions accepted by it, to enter into the purchase/work/work delivery contract made by it with the Supplier (hereinafter the Supply Contract) or to execute with the Supplier a Supply Contract under the conditions confirmed in writing by the Lessee as negotiated by the Lessee and GEFA. The Lessee is bound by its offer of a contract for a period of four weeks after submission documents necessary for a decision on its offer of a contract. The Lease Contract comes into being with its written acceptance by GEFA. After acceptance, GEFA will send the Supplier an offer to enter into the Supply Contract or to make a Supply Contract. The parties can cancel the Lease Contract if no Supply Contract comes into being between GEFA and the Supplier in a reasonable time.

Acceptance

The Lessee is required to accept the object leased from the Supplier. It accepts, in the place of GEFA, the duty to examine the object leased without delay for agreement with the completeness and correct delivery, free of defects, as agreed between the Lessee and the Supplier, and to notify the Supplier, as well as GEFA, in writing of any such defect without delay. If, upon examination of the object leased, no defect appears, then the Lessee must confirm to GEFA, in writing, that the object leased was delivered to it and when, and that no defect was visible therein (Acceptance Declaration). After receipt of the Acceptance Declaration, GEFA will pay the purchase price/wages for service (hereinafter purchase price) to the Supplier. On the date of actual acceptance of the object leased, the Lease Contract takes effect (beginning of Lease), subject to other agreements. GEFA has the right to record the beginning of the Lease in advance.

Amount and Due Date of the Lease Payments

The lease payments, the first of which is due at the time agreed, are each due on the first day of the following month. In the case of quarterly, semi-annual or annual payments, the subsequent lease payments are due on the first of the first month of the following quarter, half year or year. The Lease Payments are based on the interest rate at the time of submission of the lease offer. If the interest rate has changed in comparison with this, upon receipt of the Acceptance Declaration by GEFA, both parties may, within four weeks after the beginning of the Lease Contract, demand an adjustment in the lease rate through the arrival of a corresponding declaration by the other party to the contract, as the case may be. If the net purchase price of the object leased is changed in the agreement with the Lessee, then the lease payments and the final payment in accordance with § 9 will be changed proportionately. The Lessee must pay the current sales tax on the lease payments.

GEFA has the right to store, internally, data – including data related to persons – concerning the requesting (for example, Lessee, total debtors, guarantors, lease payments, period of the contract, beginning of the lease payments) and performance of the Contract (for example, early termination, cancellation without notice, the filing of a complaint, execution measures) from the beginning of the business relationship concerning the Lessee and any co-signer or guarantor (§ 28 BDSG), to use for the processing of the offer/contract and to transmit it to a refinancing institution for the purpose of re-financing the Contract. The Lessee can, at any time, demand information concerning the use of the data. GEFA will delete the data provided to it after the end of the Contract from its storage facilities, if the Lessee so wishes.
