SCHEDULE 1 THE UNIFORM LAW ON THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS

CHAPTER IV OBLIGATIONS OF THE BUYER
ARTICLE 56 The buyer shall pay the price for the goods and take delivery of them, as required by the contract and the present law.

Section I—Payment of the price A.—Fixing the price
ARTICLE 57 Where a contract has been concluded but does not state a price or make provision for the determination of the price, the buyer shall be bound to pay the price generally charged by the seller at the time of the conclusion of the contract.
ARTICLE 58 Where the price is fixed according to the weight of the goods, it shall, in case of doubt, be determined by the net weight.
B—Place and date of payment ARTICLE 59 1 The buyer shall pay the price to the seller at the seller's place of business or, if he does not have a place of business, at his habitual residence, or, where the payment is to be made against the handing over of the goods or of documents, at the place where such handing over takes place.
2 Where, in consequence of a change in the place of business or habitual residence of the seller subsequent to the conclusion of the contract, the expenses incidental to payment are increased, such increase shall be borne by the seller.
ARTICLE 60 Where the parties have agreed upon a date for the payment of the price or where such date is fixed by usage, the buyer shall, without the need for any other formality, pay the price at that date.
C—Remedies for non-payment ARTICLE 61 1 If the buyer fails to pay the price in accordance with the contract and with the present law, the seller may require the buyer to perform his obligation.
2 The seller shall not be entitled to require payment of the price by the buyer if it is in conformity with usage and reasonably possible for the seller to resell the goods. In that case the contract shall be ipso facto avoided as from the time when such resale should be effected.
ARTICLE 62 1 Where the failure to pay the price at the date fixed amounts to a fundamental breach of the contract, the seller may either require the buyer to pay the price or declare the contract avoided. He shall inform the buyer of his decision within a reasonable time; otherwise the contract shall be ipso facto avoided.
2 Where the failure to pay the price at the date fixed does not amount to a fundamental breach of the contract, the seller may grant to the buyer an additional period of time of reasonable length. If the buyer has not paid the price at the expiration of the additional period, the seller may either require the payment of the price by the buyer or, provided that he does so promptly, declare the contract avoided.
ARTICLE 63 1 Where the contract is avoided because of failure to pay the price, the seller shall have the right to claim damages in accordance with Articles 84 to 87.
2 Where the contract is not avoided, the seller shall have the right to claim damages in accordance with Articles 82 and 83.
ARTICLE 64 In no case shall the buyer be entitled to apply to a court or arbitral tribunal to grant him a period of grace for the payment of the price.
Section II—Taking delivery ARTICLE 65 Taking delivery consists in the buyer's doing all such acts as are necessary in order to enable the seller to hand over the goods and actually taking them over.
ARTICLE 66 1 Where the buyer's failure to take delivery of the goods in accordance with the contract amounts to a fundamental breach of the contract or gives the seller good grounds for fearing that the buyer will not pay the price, the seller may declare the contract avoided.
2 Where the failure to take delivery of the goods does not amount to a fundamental breach of the contract, the seller may grant to the buyer an additional period of time of reasonable length. If the buyer has not taken delivery of the goods at the expiration of the additional period, the seller may declare the contract avoided, provided that he does so promptly.
ARTICLE 67 1 If the contract reserves to the buyer the right subsequently to determine the form, measurement or other features of the goods (sale by specification) and he fails to make such specification either on the date expressly or impliedly agreed upon or within a reasonable time after receipt of a request from the seller, the seller may declare the contract avoided, provided that he does so promptly, or make the specification himself in accordance with the requirements of the buyer in so far as these are known to him.
2 If the seller makes the specification himself, he shall inform the buyer of the details thereof and shall fix a reasonable period of time within which the buyer may submit a different specification. If the buyer fails to do so the specification made by the seller shall be binding.
ARTICLE 68 1 Where the contract is avoided because of the failure of the buyer to accept delivery of the goods or to make a specification, the seller shall have the right to claim damages in accordance with Articles 84 to 87.
2 Where the contract is not avoided, the seller shall have the right to claim damages in accordance with Article 82.
Section III—Other obligations of the buyer ARTICLE 69 The buyer shall take the steps provided for in the contract, by usage or by laws and regulations in force, for the purpose of making provision for or guaranteeing payment of the price, such as the acceptance of a bill of exchange, the opening of a documentary credit or the giving of a banker's guarantee.
ARTICLE 70 1 If the buyer fails to perform any obligation other than those referred to in Sections I and II of this Chapter, the seller may:
(a) where such failure amounts to a fundamental breach of the contract, declare the contract avoided, provided that he does so promptly, and claim damages in accordance with Articles 84 to 87 ; or
(b) in any other case, claim damages in accordance with Article 82.
2 The seller may also require performance by the buyer of his obligation, unless the contract is avoided.
