WHEREAS, Purchaser and Evonik GmbH entered into a commercial supply agreement for the manufacture and supply of Product effective August 1, 2022 (the “Agreement”);
WHEREAS, Purchaser and Evonik GmbH wish to amend the Agreement in accordance with 15.7 thereof, in order to add Evonik US as a Party to the Agreement and agree upon certain additional terms set forth in this Amendment No. 1.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Purchaser, Evonik GmbH, and Evonik US agree as follows:
“Payments shall be made in Euros to Evonik GmbH. Payments shall be made in US Dollars to Evonik US.”
1
“For the avoidance of doubt, Evonik GmbH and Evonik US shall not be jointly and severally liable to Purchaser or Purchaser’s Affiliates. In the event Purchaser issues a purchase order and Supplier issues an Acknowledgment accepting such purchase order, such purchase order shall only create obligations between the specific Supplier issuing the Acknowledgment and Purchaser. The liability caps set forth in Article 10.2.2 and 10.2.3 shall be the aggregate liability of Evonik US and Evonik GmbH together.”
“This Agreement and the legal relations between the Parties in connection herewith shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New Jersey, U.S.A. excluding the provisions of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and any conflict of law provisions that would require application of another choice of law.”
“Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, or the breach, termination, or invalidity thereof, that cannot be solved by both Parties in an amicable manner shall be finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the ICC Rules of Arbitration in force on the date when the notice of arbitration is submitted. The number of arbitrators will be three (3). The arbitrators shall have the power to grant any remedy or relief that they deem just and equitable, including but not limited to equitable and injunctive relief, whether provisional or final in nature, and any such equitable or injunctive measures ordered by the arbitrators may be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent either Party from seeking any provisional/preliminary equitable relief (including, but not limited to, preliminary injunctions, attachments or other such orders in aid of arbitration) from any state or federal courts located in the State of New Jersey (the “New Jersey courts”), and any such application to a New Jersey court for provisional/preliminary relief shall not be deemed incompatible with the agreement to arbitrate or a waiver of the right to arbitrate. In the event that either Party seeks provisional/preliminary relief in the New Jersey courts in accordance with the last sentence, each of the Parties hereby (a) agrees that the New Jersey courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction to grant such judicial relief and (b) waives any claim or defense that the jurisdiction or venue of the New Jersey courts is improper. The arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive damages or other damages not measured by the prevailing Party’s actual damages, and may not, in any event, make any ruling, finding or award that does not conform to the provisions of this
2
Agreement. The award of the arbitrators in writing shall be final and binding upon the Parties. Should any Party fail to appear or be represented at the arbitration proceedings after due notice in accordance with the applicable rules, then the arbitrator may nevertheless render a decision in the absence of such Party and such decision shall have the same force and effect as if the absent Party had been present, whether or not it shall be adverse to the interests of such Party. The arbitration is to be conducted in the City of New York, County of New York. The arbitral proceedings will be conducted in English. Each Party shall submit to any court of competent jurisdiction for purposes of the enforcement of any award, order or judgment pursuant to arbitration, and such award, order or judgment shall be final and may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.”
