Bio Futura BV can deny a request to change the agreement without giving reasons.
8. If the Customer should be in default in the proper performance of the agreement, the Customer is liable for all damages on the part of Bio Futura BV.
9. If Bio Futura BV agrees on a fixed price with the Customer, Bio Futura BV is nevertheless entitled to increase this price if that increase in price results from laws or regulations or if it is caused by a price increase of raw materials, wages etcetera.
