Fill Rate. UNFI agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a “fill rate” for each UNFI DC of at least [*CONFIDENTIAL*]% meaning that [*CONFIDENTIAL*]% or more of Products ordered by WFM Locations will be delivered on time and in good condition with the correct invoice and selection of Products. UNFI will provide a report to WFM once a week by UNFI DC of the actual dollar amount of Product filled and delivered on time by that UNFI DC and the dollar amount of the Products that would have been filled and delivered if that UNFI DC had a 100% fill rate. UNFI warrants and guarantees (excluding the [*CONFIDENTIAL*] Region) a [*CONFIDENTIAL*]% fill rate for each UNFI DC (the “Minimum Fill Rate”), which excludes mispicks, bills not received, short-code and quality, consistent with past practices. If any UNFI DC fails to meet the Minimum Fill Rate for [*CONFIDENTIAL*] consecutive weeks, every week following until the UNFI DC meets the Minimum Fill Rate, UNFI will pay each WFM Location affected an amount equal to [*CONFIDENTIAL*] of the difference between the dollar amount of Product represented by the Minimum Fill Rate and the dollar amount of Products delivered pursuant to those orders (in each instance a “Fill Rate Penalty Fee”). For example, if a UNFI DC fails to meet the Minimum Fill Rate for [*CONFIDENTIAL*] weeks in a row, each WFM Location that placed orders for Products from the UNFI DC that were due to be delivered during the 5th week would be entitled to a payment calculated as follows. If the dollar amount of Products received by the WFM Location from the UNFI DC during week five was $90,000 and there were $100,000 of Products ordered in corresponding purchase orders that were due to be delivered that week, the resulting fill rate would be [*CONFIDENTIAL*] for that WFM Location for that week. The difference between the actual fill rate dollar amount that week ($90,000) and the Minimum Fill Rate dollar amount [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. UNFI would owe that WFM Location a payment equal to [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. If the failure of UNFI to deliver any Product is a result of any of the following conditions, the Product will not be included in the calculations for determining the Minimum Fill Rate or the payment owed to a WFM Location: (i) if a Product is OOS as a result of a failure of the supplier or manufacturer (which can be independently verified by WFM) or as a result of a supply interruption due to natural disasters and UNFI has used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Product; (ii) promotional overpulls; (iii) applicable grocery strikes; (iv) interruptions in rail service or other transportation services other than those provided by UNFI; (v) mistakes in ordering on the part of WFM (e.g. WFM inadvertently requests the wrong amount of a Product on a purchase order).

UNFI warrants and guarantees (excluding the a “Minimum Fill Rate” of [*CONFIDENTIAL*] Region) a [*CONFIDENTIAL*]% fill rate for each UNFI DC DC, excluding Products that are unable to be procured because of events outside UNFI and UNFI’s supplier’s reasonable control such as Acts of God, supplier strikes or national emergencies (the “Minimum Fill RateApplicable Products”), which excludes mispicks, bills not received, short-code and quality, consistent with past practices. If any given UNFI DC fails to meet the Minimum Fill Rate for [*CONFIDENTIAL*] consecutive weeks, every week following until the that UNFI DC meets the Minimum Fill RateRate for a week, UNFI will pay each WFM Location affected (i.e. serviced by that UNFI DC) an amount equal to [*CONFIDENTIAL*] of the difference between the [*CONFIDENTIAL*] times the dollar amount of Product represented by the Minimum Fill Rate Products ordered that week and the dollar amount of the Products actually delivered pursuant to those orders (in each instance a “Fill Rate Penalty Fee”). For example, if a UNFI DC fails to meet the Minimum Fill Rate for [*CONFIDENTIAL*] weeks in a row, each WFM Location that placed orders for Products from the UNFI DC that were due to be delivered during the 5th [*CONFIDENTIAL*] week would be entitled to a payment calculated as follows. If the dollar amount of Applicable Products received by the WFM Location from the UNFI DC during week five [*CONFIDENTIAL*] was $90,000 and there were $100,000 of Products ordered in corresponding purchase orders that were due to be delivered that week, the resulting fill rate would be [*CONFIDENTIAL*] for that WFM Location for that week. The difference between the actual fill rate dollar amount that week ($90,000) and the Minimum Fill Rate dollar amount [*CONFIDENTIAL*]. UNFI would owe that WFM Location a payment equal to [*CONFIDENTIAL*].
