FS shall have the right, if applicable with the support of the ordering party, but at its own expense, to conduct all negotiations for a settlement or any legal proceedings arising therefrom.

The ordering party must obtain information on these regulations itself in accordance with German provisions from the the Federal Office for Economic Affairs and Export Control, 65760 Eschborn/Taunus. Regardless of whether the ordering party specifies the definitive destination of the supplied contractual products, the ordering party shall itself be responsible for obtaining any necessary licence from the pertinent foreign trade authorities before exporting such products.

Any further delivery of contractual products to third parties by the ordering party, with or without the knowledge of FS, shall at the same time require the transfer of the export licence conditions. The ordering party shall be liable to FS for the correct observance of these conditions.
