Common use of Organic Certification Clause in Contracts

Organic Certification. 3.1 If, as at the Commencement Date, Supplier does not have Organic Producer Certification and has not yet commenced its application to obtain Organic Producer Certification, then within 90 days of the Commencement Date, Supplier must make an application to an Approved Organic Certifier for Organic Producer Certification in respect of Organic Milk. 3.2 Subject to ACM pre-approving such cost in writing, ACM will pay for the direct administrative costs charged by an Approved Organic Certifier after the Commencement Date up to and including the point of Supplier achieving Organic Producer Certification in respect of the Organic Milk. 3.3 Subject to clauses 3.1 and 3.2, if Supplier does not have Organic Producer Certification on the Commencement Date, Supplier must at its cost do all other things reasonably required to successfully obtain Organic Producer Certification as soon as reasonably practicable. 3.4 Supplier may be required, as part of obtaining and maintaining Organic Certification, to undergo audits undertaken by Approved Organic Certifiers to ensure that its Organic Milk meets relevant conditions (as determined by ACM acting reasonably) for export. If this occurs during the duration of this Agreement, and subject to ACM pre-approving the details of any such costs in writing, ACM will pay for or reimburse Supplier for the direct administrative costs incurred by Supplier in undergoing any such export market certification audits. 3.5 Supplier acknowledges that ACM’s obligations to pay or reimburse costs under this clause 3 are limited to an initial application by Supplier for Organic Certification. If Supplier later ceases supplying Organic Milk to ACM and at any time after that during the duration of this Agreement reapplies for Organic Certification, ACM will not pay for or reimburse Supplier for any costs associated with any such re- application for Organic Certification.
