Purchases of Alliance Products by any member of the Buyer Group for resale outside the Territory shall not be subject to the provisions of subparagraph (a) above (but shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2.2). The requirements of the Buyer Group -3- shall be measured by dollar volume of total purchases during each Calendar Year of all Alliance Products as a group for purposes of subparagraph (a)(i) above. The requirements of the Buyer Group for each Alliance Product subject to the provisions of subparagraph (a)(ii) above shall be measured by unit volume rather than dollar volume. (c) Exhibit 2.1(c) contains examples for illustration purposes only concerning the application of the aggregate and Product-specific purchase obligations of the Buyer Group described in subparagraphs (a)(i) and (ii) above. 2.2 * * * Sell Additional Product. ----------------------------- (a) While this Agreement is in effect, if any member of the Buyer Group wishes to purchase worldwide (i) any swimming pool chemical products of a type offered for sale by Seller (other than Alliance Products for resale within the Territory) or (ii) Alliance Products for resale outside of the Territory (any products within the description of (i) or (ii) above shall be referred to hereinafter as "Additional Products"), Seller shall have a right * * * to become and remain the Buyer Group's supplier of any such Additional Products on the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement. Excluded Products and Branded Products (except for "Competing Branded Products" as described in Section 2.2(c)) shall not be considered as Additional Products. (b) In each instance in which a member of the Buyer Group desires to purchase any Additional Products, Buyer shall notify Seller of the details of such desired purchase, including quantities and delivery dates. * * * (c) The right * * * described in subsection (a) and (b) above shall not apply to Excluded Products or Branded Products except for any Branded Product containing as its primary active ingredient any of the chemicals described in Exhibit 2.2(c) ("Competing Branded Products"). The right * * * described in subsection (a) and (b) above shall apply to Competing Branded Products only to the extent that the total dollar volume of the combined purchases of Competing Branded Products by the Buyer Group in a Calendar Year from suppliers other than Seller exceeds * * *% of the total dollar volume of the combined purchases of all Products by the Buyer Group from Seller during the preceding Calendar Year. All purchases by the Buyer Group of Competing Branded Products in excess of such * * *% threshold in any Calendar Year shall be considered purchases of Additional Products and shall be fully subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2 (a) and (b) above. (d) Any member of the Buyer Group purchasing an Additional Product from Seller pursuant to 2.2(b) shall purchase * * *percent (* * *%) of its requirements for such Additional Product from Seller until the October 1 effective date of the first Annual Forecast (as defined in Section 2.3) to include such Additional Product, after which the Buyer Group's purchase requirements for such Additional Product shall be governed by the provisions of Section 2.1 as if such Additional Product were an Alliance Product thereunder. 2.3 Forecasts. --------- (a) On or before August 1 of each Calendar Year, Buyer shall submit to Seller a forecast of the Buyer Group's estimated purchases of Product from Seller for the twelve-month period beginning October 1 of such Calendar Year and ending on September 30 of the succeeding Calendar -4- Year. Such forecast shall be broken down by month and the estimated quantity of Product to be purchased during each month shall be identified by individual product code (the "Annual Forecast"). Buyer shall update the Annual Forecast from time to time as necessary to reflect anticipated changes in the Buyer Group's requirements, and at minimum, shall update the Annual Forecast each Calendar Quarter beginning January 1, 1997. The Buyer shall deliver its initial Annual Forecast hereunder within 30 days following the Closing Date under the B- L Agreement. (b) The parties understand and acknowledge that it may not be possible for Seller, in all instances, to accept Buyer's proposed Annual Forecast or updates due to product shortage or capacity limitations. Within thirty (30) days following submission by Buyer of any Annual Forecast or updated forecast, Seller shall notify Buyer whether Seller is able to accept such Annual Forecast or update. If Seller fails to notify Buyer of Seller's acceptance or rejection of such Annual Forecast or update during such 30-day period, such Annual Forecast or update shall be deemed accepted by Seller. (Any such Annual Forecast or update accepted or deemed to have been accepted by Seller in accordance with the foregoing shall be referred to hereinafter as an "Accepted Forecast"). In the case of any Annual Forecast, such Annual Forecast shall be deemed automatically to be an Accepted Forecast as to each Product listed on such Annual Forecast, to the extent the forecast quantity of such Product is less than or equal to * * * % of the amount of such Product purchased by Buyer from Seller during the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the month in which such Annual Forecast is submitted to Seller. To the extent the forecast quantity of any Product on such Annual Forecast exceeds such * * * % threshold, Seller may reject the proposed Annual Forecast as to such excess quantity only, in accordance with this subparagraph (b) and subparagraph (c) below. In the case of any update to an Accepted Forecast, Seller's discretion to reject such update shall be limited to rejection of quantities of Product in excess of the quantities of Product forecast on the Accepted Forecast to which such update applies. (c) Subject to the limitations on Seller's discretion to reject Annual Forecasts and updates as provided in subsection (b) above, if Seller notifies Buyer that it cannot accept an Annual Forecast or update, Seller shall specify in such notice the amount and type of Product that Seller believes it will be able to supply and the amount and type of Product that Seller believes it cannot supply. Such Annual Forecast or update shall be deemed an Accepted Forecast to the extent (but only to the extent) of the Product Seller indicates it will be able to supply. With respect to any quantity of Product that Seller indicates it cannot supply (the "Shortfall"), members of the Buyer Group may, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.1, purchase the Shortfall from other suppliers until the end of the period covered by the Annual Forecast or update to which such Shortfall relates. Purchases of Shortfall quantities of Product by the Buyer Group from other suppliers pursuant to the preceding sentence shall not be counted as purchases of Product for purposes of determining Buyer's compliance with its obligations under Section 2.1. Seller shall have no liability or obligation to supply quantities of Product in excess of, or in any respect different from, any Accepted Forecast; however, Seller may in its discretion agree to supply such Product to the extent it has available capacity, subject to Seller's other customer commitments. (d) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.3 to the contrary, to the extent any Annual Forecast or update contains Products which the Seller reasonably believes to be Noncompliant Products (as defined in Section 9.6), the Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of the basis for such belief and may reject such Annual Forecast or update with respect to any such Noncompliant Products, and may offer substitute Products in lieu thereof as provided in Section 9.6. -5- (e) Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts in good faith to provide accurate Annual Forecasts and updates; however, the parties understand and acknowledge that it may not be possible for Buyer, in all instances, to purchase the forecasted quantities. 2.4 Force Majeure. ------------- (a) Seller shall not be liable for its failure to produce, transport or deliver Products, or to otherwise perform its obligations hereunder, if such failure is due to an event of Force Majeure. Similarly, Buyer shall not be liable for its failure to purchase Products or to otherwise perform its obligations hereunder if such failure is due to an event of Force Majeure; provided, however, that an event of Force Majeure shall not suspend or otherwise affect Buyer's obligations to pay for purchased Product as provided herein. Any party suffering an event of Force Majeure shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to remove such cause or causes with reasonable dispatch and shall promptly notify the other party of the existence of the event of Force Majeure, and the expected delays and the estimated effect upon performance to result therefrom. The requirement that any Force Majeure be remedied using all commercially reasonable efforts shall not require the settlement of strikes or labor controversies by acceding to the demands of the opposing party or parties. (b) Should an event of Force Majeure require Seller to allocate Product, Seller shall do so on a basis so that the Buyer Group receives its pro rata share based upon the percentage the then-current Accepted Forecast for Product purchases bears to Seller's estimate of its total requirements for product to all of its customers (including the Buyer Group) during such period. Any Product deliveries omitted hereunder due to either party's failure to perform its obligations hereunder due to an event of Force Majeure, shall be omitted from this Agreement and the contracted quantity shall be so reduced for the applicable contract period. (c) Within 14 days following the occurrence of an event of Force Majeure affecting Seller, Seller shall provide Buyer with notice of such event and Seller's good faith estimate of the scope and duration of such event. Seller shall thereafter provide Buyer with periodic reports at intervals of no less than 30 days, regarding Seller's progress in remedying such event of Force Majeure and any changes in Seller's estimate of its duration. (d) If, due to an event of Force Majeure, Seller cannot deliver Product to the Buyer Group in quantities specified in the then-current Accepted Forecast, and Buyer reasonably and in good faith determines that, in order to secure a supply of such Product or substitute product sufficient to cover its forecasted requirements, it must commit to an alternate supplier of such product or substitute product for a fixed term, Buyer may do so, provided that: (i) the Buyer Group must continue to purchase from Seller, subject to Section 2.1, the quantity of such Product that Seller is able to deliver while such event of Force Majeure continues; (ii) Buyer must advise Seller in advance in writing of Buyer's intention to enter into such alternate supply arrangement, * * * and (iii) such alternate supply arrangement shall not extend more than * * * following the date that such event of Force Majeure is likely to be remedied according -6- to Seller's then-current estimate, provided, however, that if the end of such * * * period would fall between * * * and * * * during any Calendar Year, such alternate supply arrangement may extend until * * * of such Calendar Year. Seller shall not, however, unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent to an alternate supply arrangement for a longer term if such term is reasonably required to prevent Buyer's business from being materially adversely affected. (e) In the event Seller's good faith estimate of the scope and duration of an event of Force Majeure indicates that Seller will be unable, due to such event of Force Majeure, to supply any particular Product for more than twelve (12) consecutive months in quantities equal to those forecast in the Accepted Forecast in effect at the inception of such event of Force Majeure, then upon notice from Buyer to Seller, such Product shall cease to be a Product hereunder and shall become an Excluded Product hereunder. If in fact Seller is unable due to such event of Force Majeure to supply such Product for such period of twelve (12) consecutive months, regardless of Seller's estimate, at the end of such twelve (12) month period, upon notice from Buyer to Seller, such Product shall become an Excluded Product hereunder. In addition, if Seller's estimate indicates that Seller will be unable, due to such event of Force Majeure, for a period of more than * * * to supply at least * * * percent (* * *%) in the aggregate of all Products (measured by dollar volume) required by the Buyer Group as determined according to the Accepted Forecast in effect at the inception of such event of Force Majeure, Buyer may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller. If in fact Seller is unable due to such event of Force Majeure to supply for such period of * * * at least * * * percent (* * *%) in the aggregate of all Products (measured by dollar volume) required by the Buyer Group as determined according to the Accepted Forecast in effect at the inception of such event of Force Majeure, regardless of Seller's estimate, at the end of such * * * period, Buyer may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Seller. 2.5 Purchase Orders. All sales and purchases under this Agreement shall be --------------- made upon written purchase orders, in the form attached as Exhibit 2.5 or in a form otherwise mutually agreed upon, sent by Buyer to Seller. At the request of either party, Buyer and Seller shall cooperate to implement an electronic data interchange system for processing Buyer's orders with Seller, provided the same can be accomplished at a reasonable cost to each party. All purchase orders shall specify the type and quantity of Products to be delivered, the location of delivery and Buyer's preferred date of delivery, and shall reference this Agreement as containing all relevant terms and conditions applicable thereto. To accomplish efficiencies and cost savings, in cases where Product orders are less than full truckload quantities, Seller shall have the right to delay shipment up to five (5) business days until sufficient orders can be consolidated into truckload quantities. In case of a conflict between any of the terms contained in a written purchase order (including the terms reflected on Exhibit 2.5) and any of the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. No additional terms or conditions of sale other than those contained in this Agreement shall be effective unless approved in writing by an authorized officer of Buyer and Seller. Unless Buyer and Seller otherwise agree in writing, Buyer shall act as agent for each member of the Buyer Group with respect to all purchases of Products hereunder; provided, however, that if Seller agrees to sell directly to any member of the Buyer Group other than Buyer, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply to such sale, as if such member of the Buyer Group were Buyer hereunder. References to "Buyer" in this Agreement shall include reference to members of the Buyer Group to the extent such members of the Buyer Group are purchasers of Product. -7- 2.6 Audit. Seller shall have the right to appoint an independent firm of ----- certified public accountants from among the "Big Six" accounting firms, so long as said accounting firm has no current or prior affiliation with Seller other than performance of audits pursuant to this Section 2.6 or Section 3.1(d), for the limited purpose of verifying that Buyer is complying with its obligations under Section 2.1 and Section 2.2. Upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Buyer and upon the auditor's execution of an appropriate confidentiality agreement, such certified public accounting firm shall be given access to the Buyer Group's books, records and accounts, and such other information as they may reasonably require for the limited purpose of verifying Buyer's compliance with its obligations under this Agreement. Fees and expenses incurred in connection with such verification shall be paid 50% by Seller and 50% by Buyer, and such audits shall not occur more than once each calendar year. Seller's right to cause such audit shall survive for a period of six (6) months following any expiration or termination of this Agreement. 2.7 Repurchase of Discontinued Product. If Buyer discontinues purchases of ---------------------------------- a Product that was included on the then-current Accepted Forecast, Seller may, upon notice to Buyer, require that Buyer purchase all of Seller's remaining inventory of such Product (but not to exceed the amount forecast for purchase through the remainder of the period covered by the then-current Accepted Forecast) at the then-effective price for such Product. A Product shall be deemed "discontinued" for purposes of this Section 2.7 at the time (i) Buyer notifies Seller in writing that such Product is being discontinued by Buyer or (ii) upon notice by Seller to Buyer, if Buyer's purchases of such Product during the preceding Calendar Year were less than 50% of the amount provided in the last Accepted Forecast for such Product for the preceding Calendar Year. If any member of the Buyer Group resumes purchases of such Product after any discontinuance, such purchases shall, at Seller's option, be subject to the provisions of Section 2.1, if such Product was an Alliance Product, or Section 2.2, if such Product was an Additional Product. In the case of a Product discontinuance based upon notification from Buyer as provided in (i) above, the Buyer will complete such repurchase in accordance with the schedule set forth in the then-current Accepted Forecast. In the case of a Product discontinuance based upon notification from Seller as provided in (ii) above, Buyer will complete such repurchase within sixty (60) days following Seller's notice. ARTICLE III. ------------ Price and Payment ----------------- 3.1 Price. ----- (a) The "initial price" for the Alliance Products shall be as set forth in Exhibit 3.1(a). Such "initial price" shall remain in effect through December 31, 1996; thereafter said "initial price" shall be subject to adjustment as provided in subparagraph (b) below. (b) On January 1, 1997, the "initial price" for the Alliance Products as set forth in Exhibit 3.1(a) shall be adjusted up or down to reflect all changes in Seller's cost since May 1, 1996 according to the formula described in Exhibit 3.1(b). The price for Alliance Products shall thereafter be adjusted quarterly based upon the formula described in Exhibit 3.1(b). Seller shall provide notice to Buyer of any such price adjustment, with such adjustments to take effect with respect to any orders for Product received by Seller after the date of such notice. -8- (c) (i) Notwithstanding the initial prices described in subsection 3.1(a) or any adjustments to such prices pursuant to subsection 3.1(b), Buyer's purchase price for any particular Product shall not in any event exceed the * * * Price applicable to such Product for the Calendar Year in which Seller receives Buyer's purchase order for such Product. The "* * * Price" of a particular Product for purposes of Buyer's purchases of such Product during a particular Calendar Year shall be * * * a Qualified Purchaser for such Product * * * the same Calendar Year; provided, however that the * * * Price for such Product shall apply to purchases of Product by Buyer only up to the quantity of such Product purchased by the Qualified Purchaser during such Calendar Year at the * * * Price. Any purchases of such Product by Buyer during such Calendar Year in quantities in excess of the quantity of such Product purchased by the Qualified Purchaser during such Calendar Year at the * * * Price, shall be at the then-applicable regular price of such Product as determined according to subsections 3.1(a) or 3.1(b) (or such other, higher * * * Price as may also apply according to the foregoing criteria based upon Product purchases by a different Qualified Purchaser or by the same Qualified Purchaser at a higher price). (ii) A "Qualified Purchaser" for purposes of this subparagraph 3.1(c) shall mean any party who purchases from Seller at least $* * * worth of the Product in question (based upon Seller's invoice price after adjustment for any rebates, allowances, discounts or returns) during the Calendar Year in which Buyer submits the purchase order for purchase of Product eligible for * * * Price pricing pursuant to subsection 3.1(c)(i). (iii) When comparing the prices to be charged to Buyer with those charged to a Qualified Purchaser, an appropriate adjustment will be made, if necessary, to reflect any shipping charges included in the sales price to either Buyer or the Qualified Purchaser, so that the prices to be compared are F.O.B. the Seller's manufacturing or distribution facility for such Product, and the prices to be compared shall not include any taxes paid or reimbursed by Buyer or the Qualified Purchaser with respect to such purchases of Product. In any case where Seller invoices a Qualified Purchaser for shipping at less than arms length market rates, the amount of any discount from such market rates shall be deducted from the Product purchase price charged to such Qualified Purchaser for purposes of comparing the prices of Product charged to Buyer with the price charged to such Qualified Purchaser. (iv) If an adjustment to the purchase price of Product is required pursuant to this subparagraph 3.1(c), Seller shall make such adjustment and shall note the adjustment on the Product invoice. (v) In the event (A) a Qualified Purchaser purchases product at a * * * Price after the date of any Buyer purchase of such Product during a Calendar Year or (B) Buyer becomes entitled * * * to a * * * Price for Product based upon purchases of Product by a Qualified Purchaser who did not qualify as such under subsection (ii) above until after Buyer's purchase of such Product, Seller shall adjust Buyer's price of such previously purchased Product retroactively to the extent necessary to comply with subsection (i) above by providing Buyer a credit towards the purchase of Product equal to the amount of such adjustment, and Seller shall promptly notify the Buyer of such credit. (vi) In the event Seller fails for any reason to adjust Buyer's price for Product in accordance with this subparagraph 3.1(c), Seller's liability with respect to such failure shall be -9- limited to providing Buyer with a credit towards the purchase of Product in an amount equal to the difference between the price actually paid by Buyer and the amount Buyer would have paid had Seller adjusted the purchase price as required hereunder. Seller shall not in any event be liable for failure to adjust the purchase price for Product pursuant to this subparagraph 3.1(c) unless Buyer shall have given Seller notice of such failure within 18 months following the date Buyer purchased the Product in question. (vii) Seller's sales of Seller's "Omni", "Guardex" or "Chloryte" brand products (collectively, "Omni Products") to other customers of Seller shall be deemed a sale of any Product sold in the same form and having substantially the same chemical composition as such Omni Product ("Equivalent Product") at the price charged to such customer for purposes of determining (i) whether such customer qualifies as a Qualified Purchaser and (ii) the * * * Price to Buyer of such Equivalent Product, if the customer purchasing such Omni Products qualifies as a Qualified Purchaser. Omni Products shall not, however, be deemed Products hereunder, and the terms of this subsection 3.1(c) shall not apply in any respect to the prices charged by Seller to Buyer for Omni Products. Buyer and Seller have entered into a separate Supply Agreement with respect to Omni Products, the terms of which shall govern exclusively the purchase and sale of Omni Products between Buyer and Seller. (d) Buyer shall have the right to appoint an independent firm of certified public accountants from among the "Big Six" accounting firms, so long as said accounting firm has no current or prior affiliation with Buyer other than performance of an audit pursuant to this subsection 3.1(d) or Section 2.6, for the limited purpose of verifying (i) the accuracy of any adjustments to the price of Alliance Products pursuant to subsection 3.1(b), (ii) Seller's compliance with subsection 3.1(c) and (iii) the accuracy of Seller's allocation of taxes to be reimbursed by Buyer pursuant to subsection 3.3(b).

(b) Buyer hereby authorizes Seller to sell the Licensed Alliance Products manufactured by Seller pursuant to Section 9.4(a) herein to any member of the Buyer Group and to the third-party customers listed on Exhibit 7.1 hereto. Seller may sell to third-party customers not listed in Exhibit 7.1 only as provided in Section 7.1. In such event, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate in good faith an agreement as to the appropriate terms and conditions under which such sales by Seller shall be made. 9.5 Registration Warranties. Buyer warrants that Buyer, the Buyer Group, ----------------------- or a member thereof is the lawful owner of the Registrations and that, (except as disclosed in writing by Buyer to Seller prior to the Commencement Date) the Registrations are, as of the date of this Agreement, (a) in good standing with US EPA and all pertinent state regulatory authorities and in full compliance with all applicable requirements under FIFRA and state pesticide law; and (b) not subject to any pending federal or state administrative or judicial actions for cancellation or suspension of any Registration. Buyer further warrants that the information that it shall provide Seller pursuant to Section 9.4(a) shall comply with all applicable legal restrictions and requirements necessary to manufacture the Alliance Products in accordance with the Registrations, FIFRA, state pesticide laws and US EPA Registrations and that Buyer shall take all commercially reasonable action necessary, during the term of this Agreement and any extension thereof, to maintain the Registrations in good standing and in compliance with all requirements of FIFRA, state pesticide laws and US EPA. 9.6 Noncompliant Registrations. -------------------------- (a) With respect to all items of Registration noncompliance as disclosed by Buyer to Seller in writing prior to the Commencement Date which may arise from time to time while this Agreement is in effect, Buyer acknowledges that such noncompliance may limit or preclude Seller's manufacture or sale of any Licensed Alliance Product subject to such Registrations ("Noncompliant Products"). To the extent Buyer requires any Noncompliant Product (including Noncompliant Products previously forecast on an Accepted Forecast) and Seller reasonably determines it cannot manufacture or sell such Noncompliant Product, for so long as such noncompliance continues and in each jurisdiction affected by such noncompliance, Seller shall have the right upon notice to Buyer to substitute in lieu of such Noncompliant Product, such other product of Seller as Seller deems the closest functional equivalent of such Noncompliant Product. Buyer may thereupon cancel any pending orders for such Noncompliant Product, but may not purchase a substitute for such Noncompliant Product from another supplier except in accordance with Section 2.1 (in the case of -21- a substitute which is an Alliance Product) or Section 2.2 (in the case of a substitute which is not an Alliance Product), as the case may be. (b) In the event Seller reasonably determines it cannot produce a Noncompliant Product as provided in subsection (a) above, upon request by Buyer and agreement between Buyer and Seller as to a price for such substitute Product (which shall thereafter be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3.1(b), Seller shall prepare and file with US EPA a statement authorizing "supplemental distribution" by Buyer of a substitute product sold by Seller under Seller's FIFRA registration with respect to such substitute product pursuant to US EPA's "supplemental distribution" provisions currently codified at 40 C.F.R. (S)152.132. Such supplemental distribution statement shall authorize Buyer to sell such substitute Product of Seller under the trademarks "Regal", "EZ-Clor" and/or "Clear Choice." Seller shall maintain such supplemental distribution statement on Buyer's behalf only for such time as is necessary for Buyer, using reasonable commercial efforts, to remedy the Registration noncompliance affecting such Noncompliant Product, or for such additional time as Buyer shall request so long as such arrangement does not impose upon Seller, in Seller's reasonable judgment, an excessive economic or administrative burden, except that Seller may terminate the supplemental distribution arrangement, upon 60 days prior notice to Buyer, if Seller decides, in its discretion, to allow or effect the cancellation or suspension of the supplemental distribution registration for the substitute product because of unreasonable regulatory requirements imposed by US EPA, or for other reasonable cause. Nothing herein shall impose upon Seller the obligation to maintain for any reason or for any period of time any FIFRA registration of Seller underlying any such supplemental distribution arrangement, which maintenance or non-maintenance shall be at Seller's absolute discretion. Seller shall give Buyer at least 60 days notice of termination of any such Seller FIFRA registration. In connection with any supplemental distribution of Seller's products as described above, Buyer shall obtain and maintain at Buyer's sole expense all state and local pesticide registrations required for Buyer to distribute and sell such substitute products under such supplemental distribution arrangement, and Buyer shall pay at its sole expense all state pesticide registration and discontinuation fees associated with such pesticide registrations. For so long as Buyer is purchasing any such substitute product under such supplemental distribution agreement, the Seller's FIFRA Confidential Statement of Formula for such substitute product shall constitute the applicable warranty specification for such Product for purposes of Section 6.1(a).

The term "Products" shall mean the swimming pool chemical -------- products manufactured or sold by Seller at any time while this Agreement is in effect under the "Omni", "Guardex" or "Chloryte" trademarks. ARTICLE II. ----------- Sale of Products ---------------- 2.1 Sale of Products. Subject to the terms and conditions of this ---------------- Agreement, Seller hereby grants to Buyer the right (i) to purchase Omni and Chloryte Products for resale within the Omni Permitted Area and (ii) to purchase Guardex Products for resale within the Guardex Permitted Area. 2.2 Limited Exclusivity. ------------------- (a) While this Agreement is in effect and Buyer is not in default hereunder pursuant to Section 5.2, and subject to the provisions of subsections (b) and (c) below, Seller shall not knowingly sell (i) Omni Products to any party located within the Omni Territories (including without limitation to customers of Buyer) other than Buyer or (ii) Guardex Products to any party located within the Guardex Territory (including without limitation to customers of Buyer) other than Buyer. For purposes of this subsection (a), a sale of Products in which Seller delivers or arranges delivery to any location within an Omni or Guardex Territory, as the case may be, will be deemed a sale of such Products to a party within such Omni or Guardex Territory, regardless of the location of the purchaser's principal offices or billing address. Seller shall not, however, be responsible for reshipment into an Omni or Guardex Territory by customers of Seller located outside such Omni or Guardex Territory. Buyer shall have no territorial exclusivity with respect to Chloryte Products. -2- (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) above, (i) within each Omni Territory, Seller may sell Omni Products to the existing customers of Seller located within such Omni Territory listed, with respect to each Omni Territory, on Exhibit 2.2 (b)(i) ("Omni House Accounts") and (ii) within the Guardex Territory, Seller may sell Guardex Products to the existing customers of Seller located within the Guardex Territory listed on Exhibit 2.2(b)(ii) ("Guardex House Accounts"). A customer that is an Omni or Guardex House Account will be considered a House Account only within the geographic area listed beside such House Account's name in Exhibit 2.2(b)(i) or (ii) (each of which areas is referred to hereinafter, with respect to the particular House Account to which such area applies, as a "House Account Territory"); sales by Seller to an Omni or Guardex House Account in areas outside such customer's House Account Territory but within an Omni or Guardex Territory, shall be fully subject to the restrictions described in subsection (a) above. (c)(i) As a condition to continuation of the limited territorial exclusivity rights granted in subsection (a) above with respect to each Omni Territory, Buyer must purchase from Seller during each Calendar Year beginning January 1, 1997 while this Agreement is in effect, Omni Products for delivery into such Omni Territory with an aggregate value equal to or greater than the dollar amount listed with respect to such Omni Territory on Exhibit 1.8 (each of which shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Omni Minimum Purchase Requirement" for the Omni Territory to which such amount applies). As a condition to the continuation of the limited territorial exclusivity rights granted in subsection (a) with respect to the Guardex Territory, Buyer must purchase from Seller during each Calendar Year while this Agreement is in effect Guardex Products for delivery into the Guardex Territory with an aggregate value equal to or greater than the dollar amount listed with respect to the Guardex Territory on Exhibit 1.6 (hereinafter referred to as the "Guardex Minimum Purchase Requirement"). (ii) Buyer's compliance with the Omni and Guardex Minimum Purchase Requirements shall be based upon Seller's total invoice price for the relevant Omni or Guardex Products, as the case may be, during each Calendar Year for delivery into the Omni or Guardex Territory in question, net of any freight, discounts, rebates, allowances, returns or taxes. For purposes of this subsection (c), the Buyer will be deemed to have "purchased" any Omni Product or Guardex Product which Buyer orders in good faith for delivery during the Calendar Year in question, including orders rejected by Seller; provided, however, that with respect to Product orders accepted by Seller, Buyer shall be deemed to have purchased the Product subject to such orders only to the extent Buyer shall have taken delivery of such Products in question and paid the accompanying invoices when due. Products validly rejected or returned to Seller pursuant to Article IV shall be counted as Products purchased by Buyer for purposes of the Minimum Purchase Requirements. If Buyer is unable to purchase, or if Seller is unable to supply, any Omni or Guardex Products ordered by Buyer in good faith due to an event of Force Majeure, the respective Omni or Guardex Minimum Purchase Requirements for the affected Calendar Year(s) shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Omni or Guardex Products that Buyer was unable to purchase or Seller was unable to supply as a result of such event of Force Majeure. (iii) If Buyer fails in any year to fulfill the Omni Minimum Purchase Requirement or the Guardex Minimum Purchase Requirement for the Omni Territory or the Guardex Territory to which such Minimum Purchase Requirement pertains, Buyer shall automatically and irrevocably forfeit its limited exclusivity rights under subsection (a) above with respect to the Omni Territory or Guardex Territory as to which Buyer failed to fulfill such Omni or Guardex Minimum Purchase -3- Requirement. If Buyer forfeits any Omni or Guardex Territory for failure to meet the Minimum Purchase Requirement applicable to such territory, following such forfeiture Buyer may continue following such forfeiture to sell Omni Products (in the case of a forfeited Omni Territory) or Guardex Products (in the case of forfeiture of the Guardex Territory) within the forfeited Omni or Guardex Territory on a non-exclusive basis so long as this Agreement remains in effect. (d) Except as expressly provided in subsection (a) above, the Buyer's rights hereunder are non-exclusive, and Seller reserves all other rights with respect to the manufacture, distribution and sale of the Products or any other products of Seller. 2.3 Territorial Restrictions. Buyer acknowledges that in order for Seller ------------------------ to maintain and support an orderly system of distribution and to provide an adequate level of market support for the Products, Seller may from time to time enter into agreements with dealers of Products, including Buyer, restricting the territories into which such dealers may sell or solicit the sale of Products. Buyer agrees that such restrictions are valid and necessary to encourage and promote expansion of the market for the Products. Accordingly, Buyer agrees that while this Agreement is in effect it will not, without the express prior written consent of Seller, knowingly sell or solicit the sale of (i) Omni or Chloryte Products to customers located outside of the geographic areas listed in Exhibit 2.3(i) hereto (the "Omni Permitted Areas") or (ii) Guardex Products to customers located outside the geographic areas described in Exhibit 2.3(ii) (the "Guardex Permitted Areas"). For purposes of this subsection 2.3, a sale of Products for delivery to any location outside the Omni Permitted Areas or Guardex Permitted Areas, as the case may be, will be deemed a sale of such Products to a customer outside of such Omni or Guardex Permitted Areas, regardless of the location of the Customer's principal office or billing address. Buyer shall not, however, be responsible for reshipment outside the Omni or Guardex Permitted Areas by customers of Buyer located within such Omni or Guardex Permitted Areas. 2.4 No Minimum Purchase or Supply Requirements. Except for the Omni ------------------------------------------ Minimum Purchase Requirements and the Guardex Minimum Purchase Requirements, which relate solely to the continuation of Buyer's limited exclusivity rights under Section 2.2(a), Buyer is not obligated to purchase, nor is Seller obligated to sell, any specified quantity of Products while this Agreement is in effect. All sales of Products shall be pursuant to purchase orders placed by Buyer with Seller in accordance with Section 2.7, in each case subject to Seller's acceptance of such order. Seller agrees, however, that it will not reject any order for Products by Buyer except where Seller believes that it will be unable to fill such order due to supply or capacity constraints, including constraints due to prior commitments to other customers. 2.5 Forecasts. On or before August 1st of each Calendar Year, Buyer shall --------- submit to Seller a forecast of the Buyer's estimated purchases of Product from Seller for the twelve-month period beginning October 1st of such Calendar Year and ending on September 30th of the succeeding Calendar Year. Such forecast shall be broken down by month and the estimated quantity of Product to be purchased during each month shall be identified by individual product code (the "Annual Forecast"). Buyer shall update the Annual Forecast from time to time as necessary to reflect anticipated changes in the Buyer's requirements, and at minimum, shall update the Annual Forecast each Calendar Quarter beginning January 1, 1997. The Annual Forecast and updates shall be used solely for purposes of assisting Seller to better understand and accommodate Buyer's anticipated -4- Product requirements; however, Buyer shall have no obligation to purchase the forecast quantity of Products and Seller shall have no obligation to supply the forecast quantity of Products. 2.6 Force Majeure. Seller shall not be liable for its failure to produce, ------------- transport or deliver Products, or to otherwise perform its obligations hereunder, if such failure is due to an event of Force Majeure. Similarly, Buyer shall not be liable for its failure to take delivery of Products or to otherwise perform its obligations hereunder if such failure is due to an event of Force Majeure; provided, however, that an event of Force Majeure shall not suspend or otherwise affect Buyer's obligations to pay for purchased Product as provided herein. Any party suffering an event of Force Majeure shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to remove such cause or causes with reasonable dispatch and shall promptly notify the other party of the existence of the event of Force Majeure, and the expected delays and the estimated effect upon performance to result therefrom. The requirement that any Force Majeure be remedied using all commercially reasonable efforts shall not require the settlement of strikes or labor controversies by acceding to the demands of the opposing party or parties. Should an event of Force Majeure require Seller to allocate Product, Seller shall do so on a basis so that the Buyer receives its pro rata share of any Product. 2.7 Purchase Orders. All sales and purchases under this Agreement shall be --------------- made upon written purchase orders, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.7 or in a form otherwise mutually agreed upon, sent by Buyer to Seller. All purchase orders shall be subject to acceptance by Seller according to the criteria described in Section 2.4. A purchase order will be deemed accepted by Seller unless Seller notifies Buyer of nonacceptance within ten (10) days following Seller's receipt of such purchase order. At the request of either party, Buyer and Seller shall cooperate to implement an electronic data interchange system for processing Buyer's orders with Seller, provided the same can be accomplished at a reasonable cost to each party. All purchase orders shall specify the type and quantity of Products to be delivered, Buyer's preferred date and location of delivery, and shall reference this Agreement as containing all relevant terms and conditions applicable thereto. To accomplish efficiencies and cost savings, in cases where Product orders are less than full truckload quantities, Seller shall have the right to delay shipment up to five (5) business days until sufficient orders can be consolidated into truckload quantities. In case of a conflict between any of the terms contained in a written purchase order (including without limitation Exhibit 2.7) and any of the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. No additional terms or conditions of sale other than those contained in this Agreement shall be effective unless approved in writing by an authorized officer of Buyer and Seller. 2.8 Chloryte Restrictions. Buyer understands and acknowledges that --------------------- Seller's rights to manufacture and sell Chloryte Products derive exclusively from an agreement between Seller and Saskatoon Chemicals, Ltd., the owner of the Chloryte trademark (the "Chloryte License") and that the Chloryte License is subject to termination while this Agreement is in effect. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that should Seller at any time for any reason lose its right to manufacture or sell Chloryte Products generally or if such rights become restricted under the terms of the Chloryte License in a manner that results in sales to Buyer becoming impracticable, Chloryte Products shall cease automatically to be Products hereunder, and Seller shall have no further obligation to Buyer with respect to Chloryte Products or with respect to the discontinuation of the Chloryte Product line. Seller will provide Buyer with notice of any discontinuation of the Chloryte Product line as far in advance as is practicable under the circumstances. Seller agrees not to take -5- any action with respect to the Chloryte License which is primarily intended to cause Chloryte Products to become unavailable to Buyer. ARTICLE III. ------------ Price and Payment ----------------- 3.1 Price. ----- (a) The "initial price" for the Products shall be as set forth in Exhibit 3.1(a). Such "initial price" shall remain in effect through December 31, 1996; thereafter said "initial price" shall be subject to adjustment as provided in subparagraph (b) below. (b) On January 1, 1997, the "initial price" for the Products as set forth in Exhibit 3.1(a) shall be adjusted up or down to reflect all changes in Seller's cost since May 1, 1996 according to the formula described in Exhibit 3.1(b). The price for Products shall thereafter be adjusted quarterly based upon the formula described in Exhibit 3.1(b). Seller shall provide notice to Buyer of any such price adjustment, with such adjustments to take effect on the date of such notice. Price adjustments shall apply only to Product orders received by Seller after such price adjustments take effect. (c) Any Products added subsequent to the date of this Agreement shall be priced as agreed upon at the time such Products are added. 3.2 Taxes. ----- (a) Seller shall add to the invoice price of all Products, an amount equal to any tax now in effect or hereafter levied, with respect to the manufacture, sale, use or delivery of the Products and imposed by law at the point of sale or delivery of such Products (other than taxes based upon the income of Seller), including but not limited to, sales tax, use tax, retailer's occupational tax, gross receipts tax, and value added tax, in each case to the extent payable by Seller or required to be collected by Seller. (b) All taxes imposed or levied with respect to the manufacture, sale, use or delivery of the Products (other than taxes based upon the income of Seller), which are required to be collected by Seller and which are not imposed by law at the point of sale or delivery of Products, including but not limited to ad valorem tax, mill tax or environmental tax, shall be paid by Seller and reimbursed by Buyer. Seller will periodically calculate any allocation of such taxes to the Products purchased by Buyer and will prepare a separate invoice to Buyer for reimbursement of such taxes. 3.3 Price Controls. If Seller is prevented from changing any price in -------------- effect for any particular Product by any governmental law, order, regulation or ruling, at Seller's option and upon sixty (60) days notice from Seller to Buyer, such Product shall cease to be a Product hereunder. 3.4 Payment. Payment terms shall be net thirty (30) days from the date of ------- receipt of invoice except for early buy terms as set forth in Exhibit 3.4 attached hereto. Unless otherwise directed by Buyer, payments received from Buyer for purchases hereunder shall be applied by Seller to Buyer's oldest then existing monetary obligations to Seller for purchases made hereunder. Unless -6- Seller agrees in writing to an extension of time, all invoices not paid within thirty (30) days shall accrue interest at the lower of the highest legal rate under applicable law or 1.5% per month. Payment for all sales shall be made in U.S. Dollars. ARTICLE IV. ----------- Title and Risk of Loss; Return of Product ----------------------------------------- 4.1 Title, Shipment and Risk of Loss. Products shall be shipped to the -------------------------------- destination specified by Buyer. The price of Products shall include shipping costs. Title and risk of loss of the Products shall pass to Buyer upon delivery to the destination specified by Buyer. All Products shipped to Buyer under this Agreement which are subject to the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act shall be packaged and transported in accordance with regulations established from time to time by the United States Department of Transportation. 4.2 Acceptance of Goods. All claims with respect to any Products delivered ------------------- to Buyer must be made within the time periods specified in Section 6.3. Buyer shall be deemed to have irrevocably accepted all Products except where notice is duly given in accordance with Section 6.3. 4.3 Return of the Products. Returns of Product will be accepted only if ---------------------- Buyer shall have notified Seller of a claim with respect to such Products within the time periods specified in Section 6.3. Unless the Products are the subject of governmental order or other directive (in which case Buyer and Seller shall comply with such order or directive), Seller shall notify Buyer following receipt of Buyer's notice whether Buyer should (i) return the Products to Seller (and, if so, the address to which the Products should be returned), or (ii) dispose of the Products. All related reasonable costs of repackaging and reshipping properly returned Products shall be paid by Seller, by a credit to Buyer or otherwise. Seller shall be responsible for charges incurred in disposing of the Products provided such disposal is in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements and Seller has approved in writing the method and manner of disposal and the costs to be incurred in such disposal. If the method, manner and costs of disposal are not approved by Seller, Buyer shall return the Products to Seller at Seller's expense in the manner described above.
