§ 11 Miscellaneous

(3) The regulations on revocation and the right of return in the case of contracts concluded outside business premises and in the case of distance contracts do not apply to purchases of tickets for leisure events on the basis of the exemption provision of Section 312g (2) No. 9 of the German Civil Code (BGB) if the contract - as in this case - provides for a specific date or period for the performance.

(4) Should individual clauses be or become invalid, this shall not affect the validity of the other clauses.

(5) The exclusive applicability of German law is agreed. The sole place of performance for delivery, service and payment is Berchtesgaden. If both contracting parties are merchants, the courts with jurisdiction for Berchtesgaden (AG Laufen, LG Traunstein) shall have exclusive jurisdiction for all disputes arising directly or indirectly from the contractual relationship.

§ 12 Enquiries/Contact

Enquiries relating to ticket orders via www.alte-saline.de should be addressed to one of the addresses given in § 14(2).

§ 13 In the case of pure reservations of 20 or more persons via login, the following shall also apply

1) The access authorisation with password issued to the contractual partner is to be used exclusively by this partner and may not be passed on to third parties. The contracting partner shall be liable for all reservations made under the password issued to it.

(2) Unless otherwise agreed, the admission charges incurred for the group booking must be paid in cash or by EC or credit card at the latest immediately before the service is used. On the basis of a separate agreement, SWS AG offers selected contractual partners the option of settling accounts with vouchers and on the basis of monthly invoices. These invoices from SWS AG are due for payment without deduction upon receipt. The contractual partner shall be in default if it does not make payment within 30 days of the invoice date.

(3) The maximum group size per guided tour is 40 persons; SWS AG alone is responsible for the grouping. If this number is not reached by the contracting party's booked group, the group can be filled up with other guests. If this is not desired, it is possible to book a separate special guided tour at special conditions.

(4) In the case of group-only reservations without online payment, SWS AG is entitled to withdraw from the contract if facts exist that justify the concern that the contracting partner will not be able to pay for the booked service; this applies in particular if insolvency proceedings have been filed against the contracting partner's assets.
