In addition, if an Agreement has a term longer than twelve (12) months, Signify may adjust Prices as of each 1st April (i) for the change in the most recently published PPI (Producer Price Index) in the Netherlands index compared to twelve (12) months earlier; and (ii) to reflect variations in the foreign exchange rate between USD currency and the Euro currency of more than 5% since the date of an Offer.

If, on request of Customer, Signify agrees to any such change in purchase order or a change in an Agreement, including an (partial) cancellation, delay or suspension, the addition, omission, alteration, substitution or modification of the design, quality, standard, quantity, manufacturing site or performance (including sequence, quantities or timing) of Products and/or Services (each, a “Variation”), or a Variation is required due to (i) changes in applicable laws, regulations or industry standards, (ii) emergency situations, (iii) incorrect or incomplete information provided by Customer, or (iv) non-compliance by Customer of any of its obligations under an Agreement, Customer shall reimburse Signify for all costs and expenses incurred in respect of such Variation promptly on first request.

Customer shall make net payment within thirty (30) days of date of invoice to the designated bank account of Signify. Customer shall pay all amounts due to Signify in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or (tax) withholding.
(e) In the event Customer fails to make any payment due under an Agreement on the due date, then, whether or not Signify has made a formal demand for payment and in addition to any other rights and remedies available to Signify, to the extent permitted by applicable law: (i) all amounts due from Customer will be considered payable and non-disputed, admitted debt; (ii) Customer shall pay Signify interest on all due amounts from the due date until Signify has received full payment thereof, at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum or the applicable statutory rate, whichever is higher, and shall pay Signify all costs of payment collection, including attorneys’ fees; and (iii) Signify may cancel any credit issued to Customer and require, to its satisfaction, that Customer provides (additional) security, pre-payments or deposits, and may implement additional conditional payment terms or accelerate payments schedules for any outstanding performance.
(f) Signify may set off against and deduct from any amount that Signify (or any of its affiliates) owes to Customer under any agreement any amount that Customer owes to Signify or against any advance payments or deposits made by Customer. In the event that Signify sets off amounts in different currency it will use a commonly used currency conversion rate.
