    <\/h3>

    3. reev’s Services and Obligations <\/strong><\/h3>
    <\/h5>
    3.1 Scope and Location of Services <\/strong><\/h5>

    The SaaS services to be provided by reev are determined by the scope agreed upon between reev and the customer. The version of the relevant service specification in effect at the time the customer places the order shall be decisive. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    Changes to the scope of services may be agreed upon with the customer\u2019s consent; reev may make unilateral changes to the scope of services only within the framework of these contractual terms and conditions.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    The place of performance is the router’s WAN port in reev’s data center. The customer is responsible for ensuring that it is able to receive the service. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    The customer is responsible for the availability, functionality, configuration, and operation of the IT infrastructure and software required on the customer\u2019s end, unless otherwise agreed upon in the contract. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    reev is entitled, at its sole discretion, to engage subcontractors as vicarious agents to perform the services. To the extent that reev is legally required to notify the customer (e.g., due to data protection regulations), reev will inform the customer of the engagement of a subcontractor in accordance with the applicable legal provisions. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/h5>
    3.2 Granting of the Right of Use <\/strong><\/h5>

    As part of its SaaS services, reev grants the customer the personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and non-sublicensable right, limited to the term of the contract, to use the application for its intended purpose via a Software-as-a-Service model. The customer has no right to access and\/or rights to source code or other software from reev. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    reev reserves the right to introduce different or additional third-party terms of use or license terms in connection with changes to the scope of services or as part of software updates to the reev Platform or the application, provided that this is necessary due to additional third-party components or changes to third-party terms of use or license terms, and provided that this does not result in any unreasonable restrictions on the contractual services provided to the customer.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/h5>
    3.3 Personal Nature <\/strong><\/h5>

    The rights of use are personal and are granted exclusively to the customer. The customer is not permitted to resell or transfer these rights to a third party. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/h5>
    3.4 Operation and Maintenance of the reev Platform <\/strong><\/h5>

    The operation and maintenance of the reev Platform are the responsibility of reev.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    The reev Platform has an average annual uptime of 99%. This excludes necessary scheduled maintenance and disruptions beyond reev\u2019s control. Such disruptions include, in particular, all events of force majeure. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    reev will, whenever possible, notify customers in writing of scheduled maintenance at least 72 hours before it begins. However, reev reserves the right to perform unscheduled maintenance if necessary, particularly if this is required to ensure data security and operational reliability. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    reev performs appropriate data backups of the processed data and the data stored by the customer for its own purposes. The accuracy and completeness of the data backups are not verified, nor is reev obligated to do so. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/h5>
    3.5 Further Development and Changes to the Scope of Services <\/strong><\/h5>

    reev is entitled, but not obligated, to expand and further develop the scope of services and functionality of the SaaS services. reev reserves the right to offer such expansions and further developments only upon payment of an additional fee. If the Customer obtains an enhancement or further development for a fee through a corresponding agreement supplementing an existing agreement, these Terms and Conditions shall apply accordingly. If reev makes enhanced or additional features available free of charge after the conclusion of an agreement, these Terms and Conditions shall also apply. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    reev may modify the scope of services and functionality of the SaaS services at any time to an extent that is reasonable for the customer. Such a modification is considered reasonable, in particular, if it becomes necessary for good cause\u2014for example, due to disruptions in service provision by subcontractors or for security reasons\u2014and the expressly agreed-upon service features remain essentially unchanged, as do reev\u2019s primary contractual obligations. If the changes do not exclusively involve functional enhancements or do not affect only minor components of the SaaS services to be provided by reev, reev shall notify the customer of the change in writing at least four weeks before it takes effect. In this case, the customer has a special right of termination (see Section <\/span>31.5<\/span>).<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/h5>
    3.6 Free Services Provided by reev: Sample Template for Terms of Use for the Electricity Supply and Usage Agreement Between the Customer and the ad hoc User \/ Authorized User <\/span> <\/span><\/h5>

    The electricity supplier and contractual partner for ad hoc users or authorized users is the customer, not reev. In this context, the customer is free to further define the terms of this electricity supply and usage agreement through its General Terms and Conditions of Business and Use. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    A sample template for a CPO\u2019s Terms of Use is attached to these Terms and Conditions as <\/span>Appendix: Sample Template for Terms of Use of a CPO<\/span><\/b> and constitutes a service provided by reev to the customer free of charge.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    The sample terms of use provided here are made available by reev as a free service and do not replace legal advice regarding customization and adaptation. The sample terms of use were not created for a specific individual case or client. reev assumes no warranty or liability for the completeness, accuracy, or timeliness of the sample Terms of Use, as the legal framework (laws, case law, etc.) is subject to constant change. <\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    4. Payment Processing for Charging Transactions via the PSP <\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>
    <\/h5>
    4.1 Enabling Payment Processing Through the Application <\/strong><\/h5>

    A key component of the SaaS services is facilitating and supporting the payment processing of top-ups made by ad hoc users and authorized users.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    To the extent that the customer wishes to market the customer charging stations, in whole or in part, to ad hoc users and authorized users via the reev platform, payment processing is not handled by reev itself but by a payment service provider or PSP (see Section\u202f <\/span><\/b>4.3<\/span><\/b>).<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>

    The customer is not required to make the customer charging stations available to ad hoc users or authorized users. The customer may optionally enable these features in the application. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    4.2 Submission of the rate and other terms and conditions by the customer <\/strong><\/h5>

    A prerequisite for using the payment processing service is that the customer must enter the applicable rate for the respective function (charging by ad hoc users or charging by authorized users) in the respective local currency per kWh (e.g., EUR per kWh) via the application. The customer is entitled to change the rate or the terms and conditions at any time. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    In addition, the customer may, if necessary, specify further conditions for the charging process at their own discretion. The applicable rate and any additional conditions are displayed to the ad hoc user or authorized user before the charging process begins. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    The customer agrees to indemnify reev against all claims by third parties that are brought against reev in connection with the terms and conditions governing the purchase of charging current, due to information provided by third parties that may be legally incorrect or incomplete. This does not apply if reev has reproduced the information received from the customer on the reev Platform in an inaccurate or incomplete manner. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/h5>
    4.3 Engaging a Payment Service Provider (PSP); Requirements for Customers and Users <\/strong><\/h5>

    A prerequisite for enabling payment processing (and thus for loading ad hoc users and authorized users) is that, at the time of the loading process, the customer is registered with a payment service provider authorized by reev or PSP at the time of the loading process and maintains a corresponding merchant account there, which is subject to the applicable separate contractual terms and conditions of the respective PSP.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    By agreeing to these Terms and Conditions and marketing the Customer\u2019s charging station to ad hoc users and\/or authorized users via the reev Platform, the Customer accepts the separately applicable contractual terms and conditions of the relevant PSP. The customer (and reev as well) shall enter into any necessary additional agreements with the PSP for this purpose as required. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    As a prerequisite for the customer to be able to use the PSP\u2019s payment services via the reev Platform, the customer further agrees to provide reev with the necessary information about themselves and their business, and to authorize reev to disclose this information in connection with the use of the payment services offered by the respective PSP.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    The reev website lists which PSPs are authorized to process payments. reev reserves the right to revoke an authorized PSP\u2019s authorization at any time. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/h5>
    4.4 Billing for Charging Transactions by the Payment Service Provider <\/strong><\/h5>

    The payment service provider bills the ad hoc user or authorized user for the charging process and remits the respective payments to the customer after deducting a fee per transaction. The transaction-based fees can be found in the current version of the price list for the respective reev Platform product. To avoid errors in billing and the collection of receivables, the maximum costs incurred per charging session are limited to a net amount. The currently applicable limit is displayed to ad hoc users and\/or authorized users on the reev.one website before the charging process begins. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    4.5 Distribution of Payments<\/span> <\/span><\/h5>

    At the end of each one (1) month billing period, the customer will be reimbursed for all fees charged for charging transactions made during that billing period within 14 days of the end of the billing period. The customer has the option to view the billing statements for the respective billing period. Billing documents generated by the PSP are available in the PSP\u2019s system. For the duration of the contractual relationship between reev and the customer, reev will provide a corresponding link on the reev platform. The customer is solely responsible for collecting and retaining tax-related billing documents. Upon termination of the contractual relationship, reev will no longer guarantee access to such billing documents. From that point on, the customer must request the provision of billing documents directly from the respective PSP. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    4.6 The customer bears the risk of non-payment <\/strong><\/h5>

    The customer bears the risk of non-payment by ad hoc users or authorized users. reev, or the PSP it has commissioned, will only distribute to the customer the amounts actually collected from the ad hoc users or authorized users (minus the applicable fee per transaction). No guarantee is provided that the amounts owed by ad hoc users or authorized users will actually be distributed to the customer. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    4.7 No payment processing for third-party top-ups via the PSP <\/strong><\/p>

    For clarification: The provisions of this section\u202f<\/span>4<\/span> do not apply to third-party charging, i.e., charging by company car users at third-party charging stations as defined in section\u202f<\/span>8<\/span>\u202fet seq. reev does not facilitate payment processing via the PSP for third-party charging sessions, but rather (i) the reimbursement of the company car user\u2019s costs by reev on behalf of and at the expense of the customer, subject to the customer\u2019s prior approval (Section\u202f<\/span>9.1(a)<\/span>) or (ii) the issuance of a receipt on the basis of which the customer can reimburse the company car user\u2019s costs themselves (Section\u202f<\/span>9.1(b)<\/span>).<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    5. Warranty <\/strong><\/h3>

    <\/p>

    5.1 Definition of a Defect <\/strong><\/h5>

    Defects are material deviations from the agreed scope of services to be provided. reev is liable for defects in the application that were already present at the time of delivery to the customer only if reev is responsible for such defects. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    5.2 Right to Rectification <\/strong><\/h5>

    If the services contractually owed by reev are defective, reev shall, upon receipt of a written or text-based notice of defect from the customer and within a reasonable period of time, either remedy the defect or re-perform the services, at reev\u2019s discretion. To the extent that reev has licensed third-party software for the customer\u2019s use, rectification of defects shall consist of obtaining and installing generally available upgrades, updates, or patches, or of obtaining substantially equivalent third-party software. The provision of usage instructions that enable the customer to reasonably circumvent any defects that have arisen in order to use the application in accordance with the contract shall also be considered a remedy. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    5.3 The Customer’s Right to a Price Reduction <\/strong><\/h5>

    If, for reasons attributable to reev, the services are not provided free of defects within a reasonable period set by the customer in writing, the customer may reduce the agreed compensation by a reasonable amount. The right to reduce the remuneration is limited to the amount of remuneration pertaining to the defective portion of the service. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    5.4 Reporting Defects and Assistance with Rectification by the Customer <\/strong><\/h5>

    The customer shall promptly notify reev in writing or in text form of any defects that may arise. In addition, the customer shall assist reev free of charge in remedying such defects and, in particular, shall provide reev with all information and documents that reev requires to analyze and remedy the defects. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    5.5 Consequences of an Unjustified Notice of Defect; Apparent Defect<\/span> <\/span><\/h5>

    If the customer reports a defect to reev that is not attributable to reev, or submits a corresponding support request, the customer must reimburse reev (or third parties commissioned by reev) for the expenses incurred as a result of the defect report; the same applies if a supposed defect turns out to be a user error on the part of the customer or does not exist at all (a so-called apparent defect). The right to reimbursement does not apply if the customer did not recognize the existence of such an apparent defect and could not have recognized it even with the exercise of due diligence. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    6. Customer\u2019s Duties and Obligations <\/strong><\/h3>

    <\/p>

    6.1 Requirements for the use of SaaS Services <\/strong><\/h5>

    The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the required settings and information are made in the Application (such as the assignment of booking accounts or the registration and assignment of Authorized Users or Company Car Users, the Tariffs for fee-paying Charging Processes of Ad Hoc Users or Authorized Users or the Electricity Cost Tariffs for Charging Processes of Company Car Users) in order to be able to use the respective services in full.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the Customer Charging Stations registered on the reev Platform and third-party charging stations have a functioning GSM\/LTE or Ethernet connection.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the latest firmware by the respective manufacturer is always installed on its Customer Charging Stations and third-party charging stations registered on the reev Platform and will carry out the corresponding software updates. reev is entitled but not obliged to carry out the corresponding software updates. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    To use the EMS function in the “dynamic load management” mode, the customer is responsible for installing additional hardware components at their own expense, as specified in the <\/span>Appendix: Technical Requirements for Customer Charging Stations<\/span><\/b> as described. The customer must ensure that the hardware components are set up by qualified installers. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    6.2 Protection of access data <\/strong><\/h5>

    The customer must keep its login credentials for the reev Platform secure and may only grant access to authorized employees. The customer agrees to require its employees to treat the login credentials as confidential and to notify reev immediately if there is any suspicion that the login credentials may have become known to unauthorized persons. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    In the event that the agreed-upon product also includes billing for authorized users and\/or company car users, and thus involves the provision of the customer\u2019s charging keys to authorized users or company car users, the customer must ensure that these charging keys are not disclosed to unauthorized third parties. The customer must require the authorized users\/company vehicle users to comply accordingly. reev shall not be liable for the misuse of these charging keys to the extent that such misuse results from the use of the charging keys by unauthorized persons or from a violation of this section <\/span>6.2<\/span> is attributable to. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    6.3 Obligation to back up data <\/strong><\/h5>

    It is the customer\u2019s responsibility to back up their data regularly and in a manner appropriate to the risks involved. This applies both to the data on the customer\u2019s local systems and to the data the customer stores on the reev Platform. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    6.4 Granting of Rights of Use to Customer Content <\/strong><\/h5>

    The Customer grants reev a simple right of use, unlimited in time and space, to all non-personal usage data and content (in particular e.g. electricity consumption, load profile data), which he transfers to the servers of reev in the context of using the software or the reev Platform, to use the usage data and content to the extent necessary for energy industry forecasts (in particular e.g. for the evaluation of the total load profile and the implementation of load management). Personal data is not collected in this context. This right of use includes in particular the right to reproduce the usage data and content and to make them accessible to third parties to the extent required. reev is entitled to grant sublicenses to its vicarious agents insofar as this is required for the performance of the agreement. Apart from that, the right of use is not transferable. reev is entitled to retain usage data and content of the Customer beyond the duration of the agreement, as far as this is technically and legally required. In particular, reev is authorized to keep backup copies of the usage data and content provided by the Customer and to temporarily and permanently store such information that is required for accounting, documentation and billing purposes. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    6.5 Compliance with legal regulations and indemnification against third-party claims <\/strong><\/h5>

    When using the SaaS Services of reev, the Customer will observe all applicable legal regulations, in particular those of copyright and data protection law. The Customer indemnifies reev from all claims of third parties, which they assert against reev due to an non-compliant use of the Application by the Customer, for which the Customer is responsible. reev will inform the Customer immediately about claims asserted by third parties and provide the information and documents necessary for the defense upon request. In addition, reev will either leave the defense to the Customer or undertake it in consultation with the Customer. In particular, reev will neither acknowledge nor dispute claims asserted by third parties without consultation with the Customer. The provisions of this Sec. <\/span>6.5<\/span> apply accordingly to contractual penalties as well as governmental or judicial fines and administrative fines, insofar as the Customer is responsible for them. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    6.6 Making certain settings in the Application <\/strong><\/h5>

    In order to make full use of the services set forth in the list of services, the Customer must make certain settings in the Application on their own responsibility. In addition to storing the Tariffs or Electricity Cost Tariffs, these are in particular <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    6.6.1<\/strong> For the use of the functions “internal allocation \/ billing to booking accounts” and “Charging Company Cars at Home”: Creation of booking accounts, configuration of Charging Keys including assignment of vehicles or users authorized for internal Charging Processes or Company Car Users;<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    6.6.2<\/strong> For the use of the “billing of Authorized Users” function, the Authorized Users must be stored in the system and provided with Charging Keys. In this context, the Customer shall also ensure that the Authorized Users record a valid means of payment and perform the actions and make the declarations required for the use of the means of payment and payment processing by the PSP. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    7. Blocking access to the reev Platform <\/strong><\/h3>

    <\/p>

    7.1<\/strong> reev is entitled to block the customer\u2019s access to the reev Platform and application (and thereby suspend the SaaS services) if<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    7.1.1<\/strong> There are indications that the customer\u2019s login credentials have been or are being misused, or that the customer\u2019s login credentials have been or are being disclosed to an unauthorized third party, or that the customer\u2019s login credentials are being used by employees other than those designated by the customer on the reev Platform;<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    7.1.2<\/strong> There are indications that third parties have otherwise gained access to the application provided to the customer;<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    7.1.3<\/strong> the suspension is necessary for technical reasons;<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    7.1.4<\/strong> reev is required by law, court order, or regulatory authority to suspend access;<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    7.1.5<\/strong> the customer is more than one month in arrears with payment of the agreed fee;<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    7.1.6<\/strong> the customer has provided incorrect bank account information when paying by SEPA direct debit, or has provided incorrect credit card information when paying by credit card, and the customer\u2019s payment obligations cannot be fulfilled using the payment method provided;<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    7.1.7<\/strong> The customer has provided incorrect or invalid contact information, and communication between reev and the customer is not possible.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    7.1.8<\/strong> the customer has not registered a valid payment method as defined in Section 29.2 in the application, or a registered payment method has become invalid, and the customer has not replaced it with a valid payment method despite a written request from reev and after the expiration of a reasonable grace period (grace period) with a valid payment method.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    7.2<\/strong> reev shall notify the customer of the suspension in text or written form with reasonable notice, but no later than one business day before the suspension takes effect, provided that such notice is reasonable in light of the interests of both parties and consistent with the purpose of the suspension. For partial suspension pursuant to Section 7.3, the deviating provisions regarding notice set forth therein shall apply. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    7.3<\/strong> In the cases described in Sections 7.1.5 and 7.1.8, reev is entitled to initially restrict the customer\u2019s access to the reev Platform and its application in such a way that the customer can only use the application to a limited extent (partial suspension). The ability to perform charging operations at the customer\u2019s charging stations, including the authentication of users via charging keys, remains unaffected by the partial suspension. The partial suspension remains in effect until the customer has paid the agreed-upon fee in full and\/or has added a valid payment method, as defined in Section 29.2, to the application. Prior to the commencement of the partial suspension, reev will notify the customer in writing of the impending restriction as part of the request preceding the grace period pursuant to Section 7.1.8; the notification obligation under Section 7.2 shall thereby be deemed fulfilled. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    9. Services provided by reev; billing of Third-Party Charging Processes<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>

    <\/p>

    10.2 Registration and storage of Third-Party Charging Stations in the Application <\/strong><\/h5>

    In order to be able to use the “Charging Company Cars at Home” function, the Customer must enter all the necessary data for the Third-Party Charging Station and the Electricity Cost Tariff applicable for billing the Third Party Charging Processes at the Third-Party Charging Station via the Application for the reev Platform. As long as the Third-Party Charging Station is not fully recorded via the Application, the Customer cannot use the “Charging Company Cars at Home” function. The Customer is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of the required data. This also applies if the Customer gives the Company Car User the option of entering the data themselves via the reev app. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    10.3 Recording of the Electricity Cost Tariff by the Customer <\/strong><\/h5>

    The customer is solely responsible for correctly entering the electricity rate to be used for reimbursement of expenses. The reev app allows the customer to save the relevant documentation (e.g., electricity bill or contract documents), which the customer must provide. The customer may allow the company car user to enter the electricity rate and\/or the supporting documentation themselves via the app. It is the customer\u2019s responsibility to verify the accuracy of the information provided by the company car user. reev is under no obligation to verify the accuracy, completeness, and\/or legal compliance of any electricity rates reported by the company car user, supporting documentation provided, or other information provided by the customer or the company car user. The customer is responsible for ensuring that they receive the information and documents required for the proper documentation of an income tax-exempt expense reimbursement and for retaining them in accordance with legal requirements. Upon termination of the contractual relationship, reev is no longer obligated to provide billing documents. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    10.4 Technical Requirements for Third-Party Charging Stations <\/strong><\/h5>

    10.4.1<\/strong> The customer is solely responsible for establishing and maintaining the functionalities, technical requirements, and equipment necessary for connecting the third-party charging stations it has registered on the reev Platform (in particular (i) the technical requirements set forth in the <\/span>Appendix: Technical Requirements for Customer Charging Stations<\/span><\/b>, as well as (ii) the implementation of one of the <\/span>Appendix: Authentication Options<\/span><\/b> for third-party charging stations).<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    10.4.2 Provided that <\/strong>third-party charging stations meet the requirements of these Terms and Conditions, in particular this section\u202f<\/span>10<\/span> If these requirements are not met, the “Charge Company Car at Home” feature cannot be used. reev also reserves the right to have such third-party charging stations removed from the reev Platform after setting a reasonable deadline and to correct the third-party charging stations listed on the reev Platform accordingly. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    10.5 Compliance with Regulatory and Tax Requirements <\/strong><\/h5>

    reev assumes no responsibility for the procurement of charging current or for compliance with all energy and metrology regulations, civil, and tax regulations associated with the operation of third-party charging stations or the reimbursement of expenses, nor for the payment of all associated taxes and fees, in particular electricity tax or income tax. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    Part IV:<\/span><\/b> Additional Contract Terms for Roaming Services<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h2>

    11. Additional Definitions for Roaming Services<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    11.1 Third-Party Platform<\/span><\/b> refers to a software-based e-mobility B2B service platform operated by a third party (e.g., Hubject GmbH) that connects operators and\/or marketers of charging stations for electric vehicles with providers and users of e-mobility services.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    11.2 EMP <\/span><\/b>refers to an eMobility Provider that is a partner of the third-party platform. No contractual relationship between the EMP and the customer is established under these terms and conditions or otherwise in connection with the roaming services; the customer enters into a contractual relationship solely with reev. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    11.3 EM User<\/span><\/b> refers to EMP contract customers who use electric vehicles. An EM User initiates a charging session at a customer charging station via the third-party platform and may have multiple means of identification. The roaming-based marketing of customer charging stations to electric vehicle users who do not have a contractual relationship with an EMP and only wish to charge occasionally is not covered by roaming services; however, such marketing can be conducted through ad hoc charging. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    11.4 Charging Rate<\/span><\/b> is the price agreed upon between reev and the customer for charging sessions by EM users, expressed in EUR\/kWh.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    11.5 Roaming Services<\/span><\/b> refers to reev\u2019s registration of customer charging stations on the third-party platform, the commercial marketing, use, and exploitation of the customer\u2019s charging stations via the third-party platform by reev in its own name, on its own account, and at its own risk, as well as the billing of charging sessions generated via the third-party platform between reev and the customer.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    11.6 Roaming Marketing<\/span><\/b> refers to the marketing of customer charging stations by reev as part of its roaming services.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    12. Granting of Commercial Use and Exploitation Rights<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>

    In order to provide roaming services, the customer authorizes reev to make the customer\u2019s charging stations available to EM users for charging purposes and grants reev, solely for the purpose of providing the roaming services, a right of use and exploitation at the customer\u2019s charging stations that is limited in time to the duration of the contractual relationship, but not limited in terms of location or the customer\u2019s use, of the customer\u2019s charging stations.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    13. reev’s Services and Obligations<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>

    <\/p>

    13.1 Limits on the Provision of Services <\/strong><\/h5>

    reev provides roaming services to customers. In connection with the provision of roaming services, reev is not obligated to, <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    13.1.1<\/strong> to provide the customer with access to the third-party platform or to otherwise make the third-party platform available to the customer for use;<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    13.1.2<\/strong> To ensure a certain level of utilization of the customer’s charging stations or a certain number of charging sessions.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    Furthermore, reev points out that the information under section\u202f<\/span>3.6<\/span> The terms of use of a CPO (regardless of whether the template or the customer\u2019s own terms of use are stored in the application) cannot be enforced against EM users in connection with the provision of roaming services. In this regard, the terms and conditions of the third-party platform\u2014over which reev has no control\u2014apply. The customer reserves the right to incorporate its own terms of use (including those applicable to EMPs or EM users) by posting them in a clearly visible manner at the customer\u2019s charging stations (including legal review of such terms). <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/h5>
    13.2 Contractual Relationships Between reev and the EMPs <\/strong><\/h5>

    For the purpose of roaming marketing, reev enters into a subscriber agreement with the EMPs registered on the third-party platform. By entering into and complying with the terms of the subscriber agreement with the EMPs, reev ensures that the EM users of the respective EMPs have access to and can use the customer charging stations provided by the customer. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    13.3 Billing for Charging Sessions as a Component of Service <\/strong><\/h5>

    reev will market the customers\u2019 charging stations on its own behalf, at its own expense, and at its own risk, in accordance with Section\u202f<\/span>13<\/span> and shall issue a monthly statement to the customer detailing the charging transactions, either directly or through a PSP, accompanied by an itemized breakdown.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    14. Billing for Top-Ups in Roaming Marketing <\/strong><\/h3>

    <\/p>

    14.1 Service Price <\/strong><\/h5>

    The service fee owed by reev to the customer for each charging session corresponds to an amount in EUR per kWh, which can be found in the current version of the service and pricing list for the respective reev Platform product.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    14.2 Adjustments to the Service Price <\/strong><\/h5>

    reev reserves the right to adjust the agreed-upon service price at any time, at its reasonable discretion, in line with changes in electricity prices and\/or the prices on a third-party platform. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    14.2.1<\/strong> reev will notify the customer of any increase in the service price via the application. The increase in the service price will take effect at the end of the calendar month following the notification, with effect for the future. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    14.2.2<\/strong> reev will notify the customer of a reduction in the service price via the app no later than four weeks before it takes effect. The reduction in the service price will take effect at the beginning of the following quarter and apply prospectively. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    In the event that reev reduces the service price, the customer is entitled to grant reev the right of use and exploitation pursuant to Section\u202f<\/span>12<\/span> . In this case, reev will disconnect the affected customer charging stations from the third-party platform and update the list of charging stations stored in the application accordingly.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    14.3 Settlement of the Service Fee and Payment to the Customer <\/strong><\/h5>

    Billing for charging sessions generated via the third-party platform and payment to the customer will be handled either (1) by reev itself or (2) reev will, at its sole discretion, use a payment service provider (PSP) it has engaged to process the necessary financial transactions.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    The charging sessions carried out by EM users are billed to the customer by either reev or the PSP, based on each hundredth of a kWh used. To this end, reev or the PSP issues a credit memo to the customer by the 15th calendar day of the following month, which includes a list of the charging sessions that took place. Faulty charging sessions are not listed. The billed amounts for the charging sessions shown on the credit memo (minus the respective fee per transaction, which can be found in the current version of the price list for the respective reev Platform product) will be paid out by reev or the PSP to a bank account designated by the customer within 20 calendar days of the credit memo\u2019s issuance. The payment is made net, plus the value-added tax required by law. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    reev, in turn, will invoice the EMP\u2014in its own name, on its own account, and at its own risk\u2014for a fee plus an administrative surcharge for the billing of roaming services. reev is free to determine the amounts billed to the EMP and is not bound by any instructions from the customer. reev has no influence over the fees that the EMP subsequently charges the respective EM User. reev bears the clearing risk vis-\u00e0-vis the EMP in connection with the billing. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    14.4 Complaints <\/strong><\/h5>

    In the event of complaints regarding the accuracy of charging sessions performed by EM Users, reev will review the session reported by the EMP from both a technical and content perspective. In doing so, reev will verify that the data transmitted by the customer\u2019s charging station is plausible and factually correct. If reev determines that the data transmitted by the customer\u2019s charging station is incorrect and\/or implausible, reev will honor the EMP\u2019s complaint and work toward a mutually agreeable resolution of the complaint. If this results in a refund of fees to the EMP or EM User, the service price credited to the customer will be deducted from the subsequent credit and offset against the revenue generated. reev will take steps to minimize complaints through proactive data validation. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/span><\/p>

    19.3 Billing and Payment to the Customer <\/strong><\/h5>

    19.3.1<\/strong> The amounts collected by reev via the PSP from top-up transactions processed through the customer payment terminal are disbursed via the reev application. To this end, reev issues a monthly payment request to reev on behalf of the customer. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    19.3.2<\/strong> After the end of each one (1) month billing period, the customer will be paid all amounts corresponding to the charging transactions made during that billing period within 14 days of the end of the billing period. The customer can view the statements for each billing period in the system. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    19.3.3<\/strong> The PSP receives a fee per transaction. reev bills the customer monthly for these transaction-based fees, which are listed in the current version of the price list. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    19.4 Complaints <\/strong><\/h5>

    19.4.1<\/strong> In the event of complaints regarding the accuracy of charging transactions performed by PT User, reev will verify the transaction displayed by the customer\u2019s payment terminal both technically and in terms of content. In doing so, reev will verify whether the data transmitted by the customer charging station is correct in terms of content. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    19.4.2<\/strong> If reev determines that the data transmitted by the customer charging station and the customer payment terminal is incorrect, reev will address the PT User\u2019s complaint and work toward a mutually agreeable resolution of the complaint. If this results in a refund of fees to the PT User, the service price credited to the customer will be deducted from the subsequent credit and offset against the revenue generated. reev will take steps to minimize complaints through proactive data validation. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    27.5 Provision of Customer Charging Stations to Users <\/strong><\/h5>

    The customer agrees to make its customer charging stations registered on the reev platform available to users in accordance with the contractual relationship between reev and the customer. This obligation is subject to the availability of free capacity at the respective customer charging station. This does not affect the customer\u2019s right to deactivate ad hoc charging or roaming, to limit the general availability of customer charging stations to specific times, or to make the use of customer charging stations located in semi-public or private spaces contingent upon users simultaneously availing themselves of other services or benefits offered on-site by the customer. The customer must notify reev in advance via the app of any such restrictions, as well as of the subsequent removal of such restrictions, if applicable. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    28. Customer Compliance with Regulatory and Tax Requirements<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>

    The customer (e.g., as the owner, lessee, or operator of the customer charging stations) is responsible to reev for procuring the charging power, operating the customer charging stations, and complying with all related energy, calibration, civil, regulatory, and tax regulations, as well as for the payment of all associated taxes and levies, in particular the electricity tax. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    In particular, reev is under no obligation to verify the accuracy, completeness, and\/or legal compliance of the pricing information, contract terms with an electricity supplier, or other customer information provided by the customer regarding the purchase of charging electricity.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    29. Fees for SaaS Services, “Charging Company Cars at Home,” and Roaming Services<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/h3>

    29.1 Monthly Fees <\/strong><\/h5>

    For the SaaS services, the \u201cCharge Company Car at Home\u201d feature, and roaming services, the customer pays the contractually agreed-upon fee, which consists of (i) a monthly base fee per charging point or registered third-party charging station and, if applicable, (ii) a monthly fee per SIM card ordered and\/or (iii) a monthly base fee per location. The fees listed above can be found in the current version of the price list for the respective product. Unless otherwise specified therein, all prices are listed as net prices and are subject to applicable sales tax. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/h5>
    29.2 Payment Method, Invoicing, and Due Date <\/strong><\/h5>

    Invoices are issued in advance, at the beginning of each agreed billing period.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    The customer is required to register and maintain a valid payment method, as defined in Section 2.[17], in the application for the entire duration of the contractual relationship, to the extent that this is necessary for the agreed-upon payment method.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    If the customer has selected SEPA direct debit as the payment method, the customer is required to provide reev with a valid SEPA direct debit mandate and to maintain it for the duration of the contractual relationship. Based on this mandate, reev will collect the fees due from the payment account specified by the customer. The customer must ensure that the specified payment account is accessible for SEPA direct debits and has sufficient funds on the respective collection date. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    The fees invoiced are due upon issuance of the invoice, unless otherwise specified in this Section 29.2. For payments via SEPA direct debit, reev will notify the customer of the amount to be collected and the collection date in a SEPA pre-notification. The invoice may also serve as a SEPA pre-notification, provided it includes the amount to be collected and the collection date. The collection will take place no earlier than <\/span>5 business days <\/span>after receipt or electronic delivery of the SEPA pre-notification, unless a different timeframe has been agreed upon with the customer.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    Payment by bank transfer upon receipt of an invoice is available only to customers with whom this has been expressly agreed upon in the order form or in a separate agreement. In this case, the invoice amount must be paid within 14 days of receipt of the invoice. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    29.3 Adjustment of the Agreed Fees <\/strong><\/h5>

    reev reserves the right to adjust the contractually agreed fees at its reasonable discretion in line with changes in the costs that are relevant for pricing. A fee increase may be considered if, for example, the costs of procuring software, energy, the use of communication networks, cloud infrastructure services, or labor costs rise, or if other changes in economic or legal conditions lead to a changed cost situation. Increases in a particular cost category, such as labor costs, may only be used to justify a price increase to the extent that they are not offset by any declining costs in other areas, such as software costs. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    In the event that reev adjusts the agreed-upon fees, the customer is entitled to a special right of termination pursuant to Section\u202f<\/span>31.5<\/span> .<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    29.4 reev Preconfigured <\/strong><\/h5>

    In the case of reev Preconfigured, the monthly base fee per charging point applicable to the use of SaaS services is waived for a period of one (1) month from the date the contract is concluded. For clarification: This does not apply to transaction-based fees that are incurred when using individual components of the SaaS services in accordance with these Terms and Conditions or that are charged by third parties (e.g., fees charged by the PSP for billing the charging process to the ad hoc user or authorized user, see Section\u202f <\/span>4.4<\/span>). If you use additional products on the reev Platform, the corresponding fees will apply in accordance with the contractual agreement.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    29.5 Activating and Maintaining a Valid Payment Method <\/strong><\/h5>

    Activation and ongoing provision of the SaaS services require that the customer register and maintain a valid payment method, as defined in Section 29.2, within the application, to the extent that such registration is required under the agreed-upon payment method.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    If no valid payment method is on file, or if a payment method on file becomes invalid, reev will notify the customer and, in accordance with Section 7.1(h), grant the customer a grace period to provide a valid payment method. If the customer does not replace the missing or invalid payment method within a reasonable period of time as notified to them, reev is entitled to suspend the activation of the SaaS services or restrict the customer\u2019s access to the reev Platform and application in accordance with Section 7 until the customer has provided a valid payment method. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    30.1 reev’s Liability <\/strong><\/h5>

    reev is liable in cases of willful misconduct or gross negligence, in the event of culpable injury to life, limb, or health, and in cases of liability under the Product Liability Act. reev is further liable for the culpable breach of material contractual obligations (i.e., those obligations whose fulfillment is essential for the proper performance of the contract and on whose fulfillment the customer may rely), whereby liability in cases of mere negligence is limited to compensation for foreseeable damages typical for this type of contract. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    <\/p>

    30.4 Cooperation Between reev and the Customer Regarding Liability Claims Against Users (or EMPs) <\/strong><\/h5>

    In the event that reev or the customer asserts or intends to assert liability claims arising from or in connection with a user\u2019s (or an EMP\u2019s) conduct in relation to a user\u2019s use of a customer charging station, the parties agree to promptly notify the other party of such a claim and to cooperate with each other in clarifying the underlying facts, in particular by providing each other with the information necessary to clarify the facts, if and to the extent that such information is known to the other party or can be ascertained with reasonable effort.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>

    <\/p>

    30.5 Indemnification in Favor of reev <\/strong><\/h5>
