9.3.         Right of Retainage and Set-Off

9.3.1.      Notwithstanding anything in Article 9.2 to the contrary, if Seller materially breaches any provision of this Agreement, or if any person or entity asserts a claim or lien against Buyer or its property or facilities that is chargeable to Seller’s performance hereunder, Buyer shall have the right to retain out of any payments due or to become due to Seller an amount sufficient to protect Buyer completely from all corresponding present or future claims, losses, damages and expenses, provided that (a) Buyer provides notice to Seller setting forth Buyer’s reasons for such retainage and [*].

9.3.2.      When the breach has been cured, the lien: has been released, discharged or otherwise removed or the claim has been terminated or released (in each case to Buyer’s satisfaction), Buyer will release to Seller any retained amounts net of any damages, costs, expenses or other amounts incurred by Buyer as a result of such breach, lien or claim.

9.3.3.      Further, Buyer shall have the right to set-off any costs, damages, expenses or other monies, the payment for which Seller is responsible, against any amounts that Buyer owes Seller hereunder.

If Seller fails to cause any such security interest, claim, demand, lien or other encumbrance to be removed by discharge or posting a bond within five business days after Buyer shall request such removal, then Buyer, at Buyer’s option, may either (a) cause the removal of such security interest, claim, demand, lien or other encumbrance by bonding, in which case Seller shall be liable to Buyer for the expenses thereby incurred, or (b) revoke its acceptance of such Product, in which case Seller shall promptly refund any compensation Seller received from Buyer in connection with such Product together with all costs incurred by Buyer in connection with such revocation.

10.2.       Vendor Evaluation Program

10.2.1.    Seller warrants that the continuous quality of the Product delivered to Buyer hereunder shall be such that the Product will achieve a “Satisfactory Rating,” as determined by Buyer on an annual basis in accordance with Buyer’s program of vendor evaluation and review program applicable to all of Buyer’s direct material suppliers, and which rates Seller’s performance hereunder in terms of quality, cost, compliance and technology, and delivery and service (“Vendor Evaluation Program”). A copy of the Vendor Evaluation Program criteria has been provided to Seller and Seller’s receipt is hereby acknowledged. Seller shall be advised of the annual rating assigned to the Product. During the Term, Buyer shall be free to amend and revise the Vendor Evaluation Program and to judge the overall quality of the Product pursuant to such amended and revised Vendor Evaluation Program. Recalls by Seller shall be excluded in calculating the annual rating for the Product. Such rating shall be adjusted equitably to account for changes in Buyer’s floor inspection practices or mutually agreed changes to the quality ratings that could affect the quality rating.

10.2.2.    If the annual quality rating for the Product during any calendar year is not Satisfactory, Seller shall promptly take all necessary action to identify and correct the cause or causes of the non-conformances that led to the low quality rating. Seller shall provide Buyer with a written report evaluating the non-conformances and their causes and describing Seller’s plans for preventing reoccurrence of such non-conformances in the future. Seller shall bear all costs in fulfilling the foregoing remedial obligations.

10.2.3.    In addition to Seller’s obligations pursuant to Article 10.2.2 above, and until such time as Seller demonstrates to Buyer’s satisfaction that the problem causing the diminished quality rating has been cured and prevented from recurring, Buyer may, at its sole discretion, purchase Comparable Product from alternate suppliers.

10.3.       Warranty of Quality

10.3.1.    Seller warrants that all Product delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall (a) strictly conform to the applicable Buyer’s Product Requirements and Seller’s quality assurance plan as provided in Article 15.2 hereof, (b) be free of defects in workmanship and material and, except as provided in the following sentence, shall (c) be suitable in all respects for use in Buyer’s manufacturing facilities for snus tobacco products. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Buyer materially changes its manufacturing process and does not notify Seller of such material change within 30 days after such change is effected, Seller’s warranty of suitability for use shall no longer apply to the Product.

10.3.2.    If any Product delivered by Seller hereunder fails to conform to the warranty in Article 10.3.1, then Seller shall promptly replace such nonconforming Product with a conforming Product at no cost to Buyer; provided, however, Buyer shall have given Seller written notice of the nonconformity within 30 days after the container or pallet containing the nonconforming Product is discovered by Buyer. Seller shall bear all costs in fulfilling the foregoing remedial obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be deemed to make Seller responsible for any nonconformity due solely to Buyer’s handling or storage of any Product.

10.4.       Additional Remedy

10.4.1.    In addition, to the extent any nonconforming Product has been incorporated into Buyer’s finished goods before the nonconformity is discovered [*], Seller shall become liable to Buyer for liquidated damages in the amount of $[*] per [*] sachets affected by such nonconformity. Such rate shall be adjusted annually in June for inflation based on the change in the Producer Price Index as first reported for July of the then-current calendar year as compared to the base month of July 2006.

10.4.2.    The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that in the event that any nonconforming Product is incorporated into Buyer’s finished goods, Buyer will suffer damages in an amount that is not susceptible to calculation with reasonable certainty. The parties agree that the liquidated damages set forth in this Article 10.4 represent a reasonable determination of the amount of damages that Buyer will suffer in the event nonconforming Product is incorporated into Buyer’s finished goods and that the liquidated damages do not constitute a penalty. Seller hereby waives any defense to Buyer’s recovery of the liquidated damages on the basis that actual damages are ascertainable, that the liquidated damages so determined do not represent a reasonable determination of Buyer’s damages or that the liquidated damages are penalties. The liquidated damages set forth in this Article represent the exclusive remedy to Buyer in connection with the remanufacture of Buyer’s finished goods, but shall not relieve Seller of any other liability or obligation arising under this Agreement, at law or in equity with respect to other damages (not relating to the recall or replacement of Products) arising out of a breach of the warranty in Article 10.3.1 above except as otherwise expressly limited in this Agreement.

10.4.3.    The parties expressly agree that if Seller contests the imposition of liquidated damages pursuant to this Article on any basis other than the assertion that either (a) the Product delivered hereunder conformed in all respects to the applicable Buyer’s Product Requirements or (b) that any nonconformity did not result in whole or in part from Seller’s or Seller’s employees’, agents’ or representatives’ negligence or willful misconduct, then the cap on Seller’s aggregate liability for the cost of remanufacturing the finished goods shall not be applicable, it being understood that Buyer’s consent to such limitations was in reliance on Seller’s promise not to assert any other defense to the imposition of such liquidated damages and in return for the admissions of fact and waivers contained in this Article 10.

10.5.       Exclusivity of Warranties

SELLER MAKES NO WARRANTIES OF TITLE, QUALITY, MERCHANTABILITY OR OTHERWISE EXCEPT THE WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN THIS ARTICLE, AND SELLER HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WHETHER CREATED BY CONTRACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

11.2.2.    Seller shall (a) pay all damages and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) awarded in any suit or proceeding so defended as well as the cost and fees associated with the defense of such a suit or proceeding and (b) indemnify Buyer against any expenses incurred by Buyer in providing information and assistance to Seller for the defense of the suit or proceeding. Seller shall not be responsible for the settlement of any suit or proceeding made without its written consent.

11.2.3.    If the Product as a result of any suit or proceeding so defended, is held to constitute infringement of any patent, trademark, trade secret or copyright and its use by Buyer is enjoined, Seller shall, at its option and at no cost to Buyer, either (a) procure for Buyer the right to use such Product or (b) replace it with substantially equivalent non-infringing Product. In the event Seller is unable to procure such right or replace the Product with substantially equivalent non-infringing Product, Seller shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement upon 30 days prior notice to Buyer, without further liability to Buyer, except for the indemnification obligation set forth in this Article 11.2.

11.2.4.    Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall require Seller to indemnify, defend or hold harmless Buyer with respect to infringement to the extent that such infringement is caused by (a) Seller’s production of Product in strict accordance with designs provided by Buyer, (b) any infringing elements that are part of Buyer’s Product Requirements, or (c) Buyer’s combination of the Product with any other material or substance.

14.2.3.    The carrying by Seller of the insurance required herein shall in no way be interpreted as relieving Seller of any other obligations it may have under this Agreement.

15.          STRATEGIC PLANNING AND COOPERATION; QUALITY ASSURANCE

15.1.       Performance Evaluations

The parties intend that this Agreement shall result in a world class supply relationship respecting Product quality, service, technical cooperation and prices. To that end, it is contemplated that Buyer shall be entitled to evaluate the success of the relationship periodically by seeking quotations of prices and services from other potential suppliers of Products who, in Buyer’s sole judgment, have the technical capability and physical capacity to provide Products of a quality comparable to, or better than, those provided by Seller hereunder. In doing so, however, Buyer shall not disclose any of Seller’s Confidential Information (as defined in Attachment D) nor rely on Seller’s intellectual property or samples of Seller’s products. Should Buyer conclude, as the result of any such evaluation, that the above-stated goals are not being achieved, Buyer shall notify Seller of the results of such evaluation.

15.2.       Quality Assurance Plan

As of the Effective Date hereof, Seller shall have implemented a Buyer-approved plan for quality assurance and quality control at Seller’s Manufacturing Facility. Seller shall amend its quality assurance plan as necessary to be consistent with amendments to Buyer’s quality assurance program of which Seller may be advised from time to time.

15.3.       Quality Audits

During the Term hereof, Seller shall cooperate with any quality audits conducted by Buyer. The parties agree that Seller’s performance also will be evaluated based on Seller’s ability to achieve a Satisfactory rating from Buyer’s Vendor Evaluation Program as described in Article 10.2.

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. §§200.80(b) and 230.406

Buyer shall have the right to review and approve all proposed changes to such materials, and to refuse to purchase or accept any Product that is manufactured with or incorporates any material that Buyer deems unacceptable.

Every effort is being made by Buyer to use qualified minority and women-owned enterprises in connection with this Agreement.

Seller shall, upon request by Buyer no more than once per year, report to Buyer, on forms approved by Buyer, full details of Seller’s actual utilization of minority or women-owned suppliers in Seller’s performance hereunder. Buyer shall assist Seller in identifying qualified minority and women-owned business enterprises upon request.

17.          FORCE MAJEURE

17.1.       Events of Force Majeure

Neither party shall be responsible or liable, or deemed in breach hereof, to the extent the performance of any of its obligations hereunder is delayed or prevented due solely to causes beyond the reasonable control and without the fault or negligence of the party experiencing such delay or prevention. Such causes may include, but shall not be limited to, acts of God, unusually severe weather, war, riots, fire, the demand, failure to act, or requirement of law of any competent governmental authority, or the party’s inability despite due diligence to obtain required licenses (such causes are hereinafter called “Force Majeure”). A delay or failure to perform caused by Seller’s suppliers is not an event of Force Majeure unless the supplier’s delay or failure to perform is due solely to an event of Force Majeure as defined above affecting such supplier. Strikes or other labor difficulties at Seller’s or Seller’s suppliers’ facilities are not events of Force Majeure.

17.2.       Force Majeure Procedure

The party experiencing the Force Majeure shall exercise due diligence in endeavoring to overcome and mitigate any resulting delay in, or prevention of, its performance. If Seller is experiencing the Force Majeure, it shall, in addition to the above actions, implement any applicable contingency plan prepared in accordance with Article 17.6. The party experiencing the Force Majeure shall also give prompt written notification to the other party, which notice shall include a full and complete explanation of the Force Majeure and its cause, the status of the Force Majeure, and the actions such party is taking and proposes to take to overcome and mitigate any resulting delay in, or prevention of, its performance.

17.3.       Effect of Force Majeure

Subject to Article 17.6, if performance by either party is delayed or prevented due to Force Majeure, the time for that performance shall be extended for a period reasonably necessary to overcome the effect of the Force Majeure. The party experiencing the Force Majeure shall

17

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. §§200.80(b) and 230.406

undertake reasonable measures to make up for the time lost without additional compensation. Buyer shall have the right, upon written notice to Seller, to obtain alternate supplies of Products during any event of Force Majeure that delays or prevents Seller’s performance hereunder if the Force Majeure has, or in Buyer’s reasonable judgment threatens to have, an adverse effect on Buyer’s ability to conduct its operations. Buyer shall not be obligated to purchase additional or “make-up” quantities of Products ordered but not delivered by Seller due to Force Majeure and such quantities shall be treated as quantities purchased hereunder for purposes of determining whether Buyer has purchased its requirements of Products from Seller in any Contract Year.

17.4.       Allocation of Seller’s Production Capacity

If any event of Force Majeure hereunder delays or prevents Seller from fulfilling its obligations to deliver the quantities of Products to Buyer as ordered, while meeting its obligations to deliver products to its other customers, Seller shall allocate the manufacturing capacity at its Manufacturing Facility first to providing Buyer’s requirements hereunder. Seller covenants that it has not and will not enter into contracts with other customers that are inconsistent with this Article 17.4. Seller hereby waives its rights under Va. Code § 8.2-615(b) allocate capacity to regular customers not then under contract.

17.5.       Termination for Extended Force Majeure

If Seller’s ability to perform hereunder is delayed or prevented, in whole or in part, for a period of 12 consecutive months as a result of an event of Force Majeure, Buyer shall have the right, at its sole option, to terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part, by giving written notice of termination to Seller. Such termination shall be effective no earlier than 30 days after Seller’s receipt of such notice and without regard to whether the event of Force Majeure ends prior to the date on which the termination becomes effective.

17.6.       Seller’s Contingency Plans

17.6.1.    Buyer and Seller acknowledge that although the occurrence of any event of Force Majeure will be outside the control of either party, certain types of Force Majeure are more likely to occur than others and the adverse effects of such events can often be reduced or minimized through advance planning. Therefore, no later than 30 days after the Effective Date, Seller shall prepare and submit for Buyer’s review contingency plans to address the occurrence of the following Force Majeure events: raw material shortage or supply interruption when such interruption is due to a Force Majeure event experienced by Seller’s suppliers, floods, fire, and such other events of Force Majeure as Buyer and Seller may mutually agree. In addition, although the following are not events of Force Majeure, Seller shall prepare and submit for Buyer’s review contingency plans to address (a) the occurrence of strikes or other labor disturbances at Seller’s Manufacturing Facility and (b) any disruption in production at Seller’s Manufacturing Facility which will impair Seller’s ability to perform hereunder and which Seller anticipates will last for one month or longer.

17.6.2.    If Seller fails to develop mutually acceptable contingency plans for such events of Force Majeure, or if upon the occurrence of such an event Seller fails to implement the applicable contingency plan, any delay in or prevention of Seller’s performance due to the

18

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. §§200.80(b) and 230.406

occurrence of such event of Force Majeure shall be deemed to have been within the reasonable control of Seller and therefore not excused under this Article. In such event, Buyer may seek alternate supplies of Products and any expenses incurred by Buyer to obtain such Products in excess of the compensation that would have been due Seller hereunder shall be reimbursed by Seller. Buyer reserves the right to review and comment on such plans on an annual basis and, if reasonably requested by Buyer, Seller shall update such plans as necessary to address Buyer’s comments.

Seller further agrees to submit and obtain such certifications of nonsegregated facilities as are required by 41 C.F.R. § 60-1.8. The provisions of this Article 18.2 shall apply to Seller only to the extent that (a) such provisions are required under existing law, (b) Seller is not otherwise exempt from said provisions and (c) compliance with said provisions is consistent with and not violative of 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq., 42 U.S.C. § 1981 et seq. or other acts of Congress.

18.3.       No Collusion; Business Conduct Policy

18.3.1.    Neither Seller nor any person or entity acting or purporting to act on Seller’s behalf shall enter into any combination, conspiracy, agreement or other form of collusive arrangement with any person, corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other entity that directly or indirectly lessens competition between potential contractors, vendors or suppliers from whom goods or services may be obtained that will be used by Seller in the performance of its obligations hereunder.

employee to be in violation of such Policy, and in its dealings with any suppliers in connection with this Agreement or any Order, by complying with all obligations otherwise applicable to Buyer’s employees. A copy of this Policy has been provided to Seller and Seller’s receipt is hereby acknowledged. Seller shall inform all potential suppliers from whom goods may be obtained on Buyer’s behalf of Buyer’s Policy and shall require compliance therewith.

18.4.       Fines

Any fines, legal costs or other penalties incurred by Seller or its agents or employees for noncompliance with any laws, rules, regulations or ordinances with which compliance is required herein shall not be reimbursed by Buyer, but shall be the sole responsibility of Seller. If fines, penalties or legal costs are assessed against Buyer by any government authority or court due to noncompliance by Seller or its agents or employees with any laws, rules, regulations or ordinances, or if Buyer’s operations or any part thereof is delayed or stopped by order of any government authority or court due to Seller’s noncompliance or the noncompliance of Seller’s agents or employees, Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless Buyer against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) suffered or incurred because of the failure of Seller or its agents or employees to comply therewith.
