GENERAL

(1) General: WK Kellogg is committed to serving all its customers fairly and equitably. WK Kellogg’s price list (“Price List”) or any specific negotiated price, and these Terms of Sale constitute the terms and conditions pursuant to which WK Kellogg sells WK Kellogg products (“Products”) to WK Kellogg-approved customers (“Customer”). WK Kellogg may change these Terms of Sale at any time without prior notice. The Price List or any specific price negotiated between WK Kellogg and Customer together with these Terms of Sale, are collectively referred to as the “Terms”. The applicable Terms are those in effect at the time an order placed by a Customer is received by WK Kellogg. The applicable Price List shall be the WK Kellogg price list in effect at the time that an order is delivered based upon the customer’s required delivery date.

(2) Governing Terms: By placing an order with WK Kellogg, and/or by accepting delivery of products from WK Kellogg, a Customer will be deemed to have accepted and agreed to be bound by the Terms. The Terms will govern the purchase and sale of all Products by WK Kellogg; no additional, amended or different terms appearing on Customer’s order forms or otherwise (unless issued by WK Kellogg in writing or agreed to in writing by WK Kellogg in advance) shall be incorporated into, limit, extend, supersede or otherwise modify, supplement or replace these Terms. Any attempt by Customer to supersede, alter, supplement, amend or modify these Terms by issuing Customer’s order form or otherwise will be null and void (and neither WK Kellogg’s lack of objection thereto nor shipment of Products shall constitute WK Kellogg’s agreement to any additional or modified terms and conditions), unless agreed to in writing by WK Kellogg in advance. If both WK Kellogg and Customer have committed to follow specific industry guidelines for any matters, such as the ECR Unsaleables Program, these Terms are deemed modified only if and to the extent necessary for WK Kellogg and the Customer to comply with such guidelines.

(5) Shipping Lead Time: At least 3 Business Days (Display ready Packaging will require at least 14 Business Days) order processing lead time is required from the date following receipt by WK Kellogg of Customer’s order to the required shipping date. Transit days (the typical number of days WK Kellogg’s requires to move the Customer’s order from WK Kellogg’s warehouse to the destination location designated by the Customer (the “Deliver Location”)) will vary by shipping mode, by Customer, and by Delivery Location. Order processing lead time plus transit days determine the total number of lead time days required to process and deliver a Customer order. WK Kellogg is not liable for delays in delivery or failure to deliver by required delivery date, regardless of the cause of such delay or failure. The same lead times shall apply with respect to any re-submission of a Customer purchase order.

13) Title/Security: WK Kellogg retains title to and ownership of all Products until paid for in full (including payment of the purchase price together with any applicable taxes, interest and any other applicable costs and charges) by Customer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all responsibility for and risk relating to the WK Kellogg Products passes to the Customer on delivery to the Delivery Location or upon Customer pick-up. Customer grants WK Kellogg a security interest (which shall include a purchase money security interest where it satisfies the criteria therefor) in all WK Kellogg brand products in which the Customer now or hereafter has rights or an interest (including the WK Kellogg Products) and all proceeds thereof (including insurance proceeds and including proceeds of proceeds, collectively the “Collateral”), until the WK Kellogg Products are paid for in full (including payment of the purchase price together with any applicable taxes, interest and other costs and charges) and as security for such payment.

PRICE

(15) Price: WK Kellogg shall provide all existing customers with notice of list price increases or any WK Kellogg declines in accordance with FHCP (or any successor thereof) guidelines. WK Kellogg will not warrant price against decline for WK Kellogg Products that Customer has agreed to sell or distribute (or has sold or distributed) to a third party in breach of these Terms. If Customer’s purchase orders do not match WK Kellogg’s agreed to pricing and it is deemed by WK Kellogg, in its sole discretion, that it is Customer error, Customer must revise and re-submit their order form. The Customer confirms that any and all advertising related to the resale price of WK Kellogg Products will be compliant with WK Kellogg’s Minimum Advertised Pricing Policy.

(16) Invoices/Discounts: Payment of invoice (including applicable taxes and any other applicable costs and charges) is due and payable within 30 days of invoice date. Customer shall pay interest on all amounts past due, calculated and payable monthly from the date payment is due until it is received, at a rate of 1.5% per month (18% per year). WK Kellogg shall apply payments received from Customer in such order as WK Kellogg shall determine in its sole discretion. Except with WK Kellogg’s prior written consent, and except as permitted below, Customer is not entitled to deduct from invoice amount any amount including without limitation any penalty or fee which a Customer may attempt to impose on WK Kellogg (whether for delay or shortage in shipment, missed appointments, wrong products shipped, warranty claims, incorrect invoicing, overage of products, or otherwise), any costs, expenses or other amounts relating to promotions, or any amount representing alleged errors or alleged amounts owing to Customer discovered in audits, nor will WK Kellogg be required to pay Customer any such amounts (unless otherwise provided for in these Terms or unless agreed to in writing in advance by WK Kellogg). If Customer deducts any amount from invoice amount, the amount deducted is an unpaid amount that shall bear interest in accordance with these Terms. WK Kellogg offers a discount incentive for early payment of invoices by Customer. In such cases, if full payment of the invoice amount is received by WK Kellogg within 10 days of the invoice date, Customer is eligible to deduct 1% of the total amount as indicated at the bottom of such invoice. Cash discounts are not negotiable. Customer must reimburse WK Kellogg for any discounts taken in error and/or any invoice corrections, on demand. Except as permitted above, if a Customer itself calculates and deducts any discount from an invoice amount and does not pay the full invoice amount when due, the amount not paid will bear interest as an unpaid amount in accordance with these Terms (even if such Customer would be entitled to a discount for early payment).

(17) Audit: Requests for correcting alleged errors, if any, discovered by a party in an audit of its books (including audits of prior billings and shipments) may be submitted to the other party within the time period(s) set out in the then current FHCP Guidelines from time to time (if such guidelines are then in effect). In accordance with the FHCP Guidelines on today’s date, any claim shall be calculated from the month of any such invoice and supported by sufficient documentation for verification. Claims shall have a 90 day waiting period prior to the actual deduction. If the party accepts the claim in whole or part, payment by that party to the other party of the accepted amount shall be made within 30 days of such acceptance. In no event will either party be responsible for the costs, expenses or any penalty or fee of the other for audits, research, bookkeeping, reconciliation, or other administration related thereto.

(18) LIMITED LIABILITY: WK KELLOGG SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER OR ANY THIRD-PARTY IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE FOR ANY LIABILITY, LOSS, DAMAGE, INJURY, COST, CLAIM OR EXPENSE OF ANY KIND (TOGETHER, “LIABILITIES, AND EACH A “LIABILITY”) RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE PRODUCTS, CUSTOMER’S ORDER OF SAME, AND/OR FAILURE, NEGLEGENCE OR DELAY IN PERFORMANCE BY WK KELLOGG (INCLUDING ITS EMPLOYEES, AGENTS AND REPRESENTATIVES), EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF AND NOTWITHSTANDING ACCEPTANCE OF ORDERS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, (I) DIRECT, INDIRECT, GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; (II) ANY LIABILITY OF CUSTOMER TO A THIRD PARTY AND (III) LIABILITIES CAUSED BY CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND WK KELLOGG’S REASONABLE CONTROL.

Further, in any such circumstances, WK Kellogg may, at its sole option, terminate its agreements with Customer (without affecting any liabilities incurred by Customer prior to termination, and with no liability on the part of WK Kellogg), refuse acceptance of orders in whole and in part and/or to stop shipment, and/or decline to permit Customer’s participation in promotions.
