The Provider shall only be liable for slight negligence in the event of a breach of a major obligation (material contractual obligation), the fulfilment of which is a prerequisite for the proper performance of the contract and on the observance of which the Customer may regularly rely as well as in the event of damage resulting from injury to life, body or health.

(5) Should individual provisions be invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions shall not be affected thereby. In lieu of the invalid provision, the contracting parties shall agree upon such valid provision which most closely corresponds to the economic intent of the invalid one.
(6) If the Customer is an entrepreneur, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising under the contractual relationship between the Customer and the Provider shall be the Provider’s place of business.
