If Supplier wishes Rainforest to cease the sale and distribution of the Products to an account outside of the Territory, Supplier shall notify Rainforest in writing and Rainforest shall have thirty (30) days to cease such sale and distribution.

At Supplier’s prior written consent (which shall include email correspondence), Rainforest may appoint sub-distributors.

Rainforest reserves the right to refuse inbound delivery of non-conforming product. Exhibit E shall include the total shelf life of each Product, in days, at the time of production.

Supplier agrees to guarantee all Products (“Guaranteed Sale”) purchased by Rainforest. Supplier shall replace, at its own expense (or provide a credit to Rainforest for the Cost of such Products) any Product not saleable for any reason. This Guaranteed Sale provision includes any Product returned by any retailer to Rainforest for any reason in addition to any Product expiring or spoiling prior to sale to a retailer.

Products shall be manufactured and labeled in all material respects in accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations, including but not limited to the U.S. Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, and all associated regulations, including but not limited to Good Manufacturing Practices.

Supplier represents and warrants to Rainforest that all Products sold by it at the time and place of delivery to Rainforest shall be fit for the purpose intended and merchantable.

Supplier shall have sufficient security measures in place prior to delivery of the Products to Rainforest to ensure that such Products are not tampered with or adulterated in any manner, and that all such Products shall be maintained at temperatures and other storage conditions necessary to preserve the freshness and integrity of the Products while in storage, transit or otherwise in Supplier’s custody and control.

Any subsequent Cost changes must be made by following the Rainforest’s published price change procedures.

The Cost of each of the Products shall not exceed the lowest delivered price charged by Supplier to any of the Excluded Distributors. The price charged by Supplier to any of its Excluded Distributors shall be adjusted for any accruals, rebates, freight allowances or other price reductions regardless of the manner in which such price reduction is conveyed.

For the purpose of establishing the lowest delivered price charged by Supplier to any of the Excluded Distributors: If Supplier offers FOB pricing to an Excluded Distributor rather than delivered pricing, Supplier and Rainforest shall mutually agree upon the equivalent delivered price of each Product being sold by Supplier to the Excluded Distributor with FOB pricing. The Parties acknowledge that the freight rates of the Excluded Distributors change with market conditions and that Parties agree to re-evaluate the equivalent delivered price of each Product being sold as market conditions warrant.

Supplier agrees that it will not employ the use of marketing funds, sales allowances, product demonstration funds, price promotions, free goods, slotting dollars, advertising dollars, credit for out-of-code and spoiled product, product spoilage allowances, accruals, rebates, coupons, or other marketing and sales incentives as a means of circumventing the obligations of this Section 6B.

In consideration for the distribution and other services provided by Rainforest, Rainforest shall be entitled to a [*] (the “Service Fee”) on all amounts invoiced by Supplier to Rainforest for the Products. The accounting of the Service Fee shall be initiated, via separate credit memo (one credit memo for each Supplier invoice), by Rainforest and issued to Supplier.

Further, the Service Fee is not intended to cover any cost of product promotions, retailer fees of any kind, marketing, and advertising expenses, or similar, and any such costs, as approved by Supplier, which will be billed directly by Rainforest to Supplier.

If Rainforest makes electronic payment for an invoice within 10 days after the later of Rainforest’s i) actual receipt of the Products or ii) receipt of an accurate and correct invoice for such Products, then Rainforest shall be entitled to a discount in the amount of [*] off the stated invoice price for the Products (not including taxes, surcharges, third party fees, bottle deposits, and similar amounts).

All amounts payable by Supplier to Rainforest in respect of promotional billbacks, slotting, retailer programming cost, and similar, shall be credited or deducted from amounts owed to the Supplier.

8.	TERMINATION

Rainforest may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by providing Supplier with sixty (60) days advance written notice.

The Termination Fee shall be due and owing within sixty (60) days of Rainforest’s receipt of a Termination Notice. Under no circumstances will the termination be effective until the Termination Fee has been paid.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that: (i) the Termination Fee is intended to cover any and all claims of any nature whatsoever arising from Supplier’s election to terminate this Agreement and is intended to be an absolute limitation of the liability of Supplier in the event of Supplier’s election to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8B and does not constitute a penalty. This limitation of the liability of Supplier shall not apply in the case of any termination of this Agreement other than one resulting from Supplier’s election to termination this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8 and shall not in any manner serve to otherwise limit Supplier’s liability hereunder in any other circumstance.

If Supplier provides a Termination Notice, Supplier shall be required to pay the Termination Fee in accordance with Section 8B; provided, however, no Termination Fee shall be due and owing if

Rainforest fails to pay any amount when due under this Agreement, other than the amounts held by Rainforest upon receipt of a Termination Notice in accordance with Section 9D below, and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after Rainforest’s receipt of written notice of non-payment;

ii.

Rainforest materially breaches its obligations under this Agreement (other than as contemplated by (i) above) and such breach continues for thirty (30) days after Rainforest’s receipt of written notice thereof;

iii.

Rainforest fails to satisfy its Annual Purchasing Targets as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and such failure continues for 30 days after Rainforest’s receipt of written notice thereof; provided, however, Supplier shall be deemed to have waived Rainforest’s failure to satisfy its Annual Purchasing Targets if no written notice of such failure is delivered by Supplier to Rainforest within 30 days following the end of the applicable Purchasing Period; or

iv.

Rainforest becomes insolvent or otherwise files or has filed against it a petition for bankruptcy (whether voluntary or involuntary) or seeks to make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors or applies for, consents to, the appointment of a trustee, receiver or custodian for a substantial part of its property, or is generally unable to pay its debts as they become due.

In order to effect an orderly termination:

Within ten (10) days of the effective date of the termination of this Agreement under this Section Rainforest will resell to Supplier all saleable Products held by Rainforest. Supplier shall buy from Rainforest all such salable inventory of Products in the possession of Rainforest at the time of termination at Rainforest’s Cost.

During the period between Rainforest’s receipt of a Termination Notice and the effective date of the termination of this Agreement, Rainforest shall be entitled to hold a reasonable reserve against any outstanding Supplier liability, including but not limited to amounts sufficient to cover saleable Products held by Rainforest at the time of the Termination Notice, the amount of the Termination Fee, and/or any applicable credits resulting from Products returned by Rainforest customers, pursuant to Section 5.

9.	INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS

Rainforest and Supplier shall remain independent contractors and nothing herein shall be interpreted as the Parties hereto acting in concert or as joint venturers or partners or as creating a franchisor/franchisee relationship. Rainforest and Supplier do not convey to each other any property interest in the other’s corporate name, trademarks, or patents.

10.

Non-Solicitation

Supplier agrees that during the Term of this Agreement and for a period of twelve (12) months after the termination of this Agreement, Supplier shall not directly or indirectly hire any person or independent contractor who provided services to Rainforest as an employee, independent contractor, or otherwise at any time during the Term of this Agreement.

11.

SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNS AND LICENSEES

The assignee of a permitted assignment shall remain obligated for the faithful performance of this Agreement and such assignment shall be made subject to all terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Supplier covenants and agrees that it will not sell or transfer a majority of its assets without Supplier’s rights and obligations under this Agreement being transferred/assigned to the asset purchaser as part of the asset purchase transaction.

Rainforest covenants and agrees that it will not sell or transfer a majority of its assets without Rainforest’s rights and obligations under this Agreement being transferred/assigned to the asset purchaser as part of the asset purchase transaction.
