Within 24 hours after receipt of ChemTreat’s notice that any Products are rejected, Vendor will provide instruction to ChemTreat for the return of such Products at Vendor’s risk and expense.

PRODUCT RECALLS. If either party believes a Product poses a safety hazard or is or may become the subject of any claim, suit, or proceeding arising out of personal injury or damage to real property, such party may initiate a Product safety notice or recall procedure. Vendor and ChemTreat will work diligently together  to replace the  recalled Product or correct any actual or alleged defects in a manner that is both acceptable to ChemTreat and complies with applicable quality requests. ChemTreat reserves the sole right to contact its customers regarding recalls. If Vendor’s non-conforming Product necessitates the  safety notice or recall, the direct costs of replacement or repair of such Product will be administered under the Warranty and Product  Rejection provisions herein.

CHEMTREAT PROPERTY. ChemTreat may provide Vendor with property (the “Property”) to facilitate delivery or to be used in conjunction with Vendor’s Products. While in Vendor’s care, custody, and/or control, the Property will be held at Vendor’s risk and will be insured by Vendor at its own expense with loss payable to ChemTreat in an amount equal to the replacement cost. Vendor shall have no authority to dispose of any Property without ChemTreat’s prior written consent. Upon termination of this Order, or as requested by ChemTreat, the Property will be immediately returned to ChemTreat in the same condition it was received, ordinary wear and tear expected.

INDEMNIFICATION. Vendor agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless ChemTreat and its officers, directors, affiliates, employees, and agents at Vendor’s own cost and expense for any and all claims, judgments, and actions asserted or brought against ChemTreat arising out of the performance of this Order, including those based on the actual or alleged: (i) failure of the Products manufactured, supplied, or provided by Vendor to conform to any requirement of this Order, ChemTreat specification, written instruction, and/or warranty; (ii) failure of the Products to conform to  any federal, state, or  local law; (iii) infringement of any patent, trademark, or copyright by reason of the sale or use of the Products; or (iv) acts or omissions of Vendor or its employees, representatives, subcontractors, or agents.

PROPRIETARY & CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Each party shall retain all right, title, and interest in and to any proprietary technology and information, regardless of whether protected by patent, trade secret, or otherwise, that it had prior to entering into this Order. All customer information (including but not limited to names, contacts, details, and addresses), customer lists, pricing, drawings, engineering designs, specifications, product formularies, firmware, software, and other technical information supplied by or on behalf of ChemTreat  or purchased from Vendor specifically in connection with this Order (the “Proprietary Information”) will be owned solely by ChemTreat.

This provision does not apply to or include confidential information which: (i) a party can prove was in the public domain through no fault of its own or was lawfully disclosed to that party without restrictions; or (ii) Vendor can prove was independently developed by Vendor without any reference to the Proprietary Information.

FORCE MAJEURE.

Interrupted supply resulting from mechanical equipment failures or scarcity of material shall not be considered a Force Majeure Event. Vendor shall give ChemTreat prompt written notice of the Force Majeure Event and an estimate of the resulting delay. Vendor must take all reasonable steps to avoid or remove the cause of nonperformance and must resume performance promptly thereafter. Any suspension of performance hereunder shall be limited to the period when performance is rendered impossible due to such Force Majeure Event.

TERMINATION. Either party may terminate this Order for default by the other party. Default shall include but is not limited to: (i) bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, or assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (ii) the failure of  Vendor to  deliver the  Products in a timely manner, promptly replace or correct defective Products, or issue a credit or refund, according to the terms of this Order. The provisions hereunder dealing with Payment, Warranty, Indemnification, Proprietary and Confidential Information, and Compliance shall survive the termination or expiration of this Order.

COMPLIANCE.   Vendor acknowledges that ChemTreat is required to comply with Section 1502 of the United States Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and inter alia must file disclosures  and reports with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission related to the use of tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (the “Conflict  Minerals”).   Vendor represents and warrants that it will source and track the chain of custody of all Conflict Minerals contained in any products or materials provided by Vendor to ChemTreat in accordance with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (or such other internationally recognized due diligence standard as ChemTreat and Vendor may jointly agree upon). At ChemTreat’s request (which may be as frequently as quarterly, at ChemTreat’s discretion), Vendor must execute and deliver to ChemTreat declarations in the form of the EICC-GESI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template, as adopted by EICC-GESI from time-to-time, or (at ChemTreat’s sole discretion) in any other form that ChemTreat reasonably requests. Vendor agrees and represents that all products and materials provided by Vendor to ChemTreat after December 31, 2014 shall be “conflict free” as defined in the Dodd-Frank Act and, at ChemTreat’s request from time-to-time, Vendor shall execute and deliver to ChemTreat a written declaration to the same effect. Vendor represents and warrants that, in the execution and performance of this Order, it will comply with  all  applicable provisions of federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, rules, codes, and regulations. ChemTreat is an Equal Employment Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer subject to Executive Order 11246. Vendor agrees that it will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for  employment on the basis of race, color, sex, national origin, religion, age, mental or physical disability, Veteran status (including but not limited to, special disabled veterans, veterans of the Vietnam era, and other eligible veterans), or any other basis covered by applicable law.

MISCELLANEOUS. This Order constitutes the entire understanding of the parties and supersedes all prior purchase orders, negotiations, and communications, whether oral or written,  pertaining  to  its  subject matter. No changes to this Order are permitted without the written agreement of both parties.  If any term or provision contained herein is declared invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such declaration will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions.

Neither party may assign its obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other party, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Vendor is an independent contractor of ChemTreat. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as creating any agency, partnership, employment, or fiduciary relationship.  Neither party shall have authority to bind the other party in any manner whatsoever. This Order is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
