2. Term of Agreement. The term of this Agreement shall commence on September 8,
2005 and shall continue until September 7, 2010 and shall automatically renew thereafter on a
month-to-month basis thereafter unless earlier terminated by either party pursuant to Article 15.
Products
3.1 Description of Products. The products to be delivered by Customer and/or its suppliers (the “Products”)
are described in Exhibit B attached hereto and made a part hereof. In addition to the
specific obligations set forth in this Agreement, Customer shall provide XXXXXX + XXXXX with information concerning the Products
which is accurate, complete and sufficient to allow XXXXXX + XXXXX to perform the Services.
3.2 Material Safety Data Sheets; Dangerous Products. XXXXXX + XXXXX must have current, correct and
complete Material Safety Data Sheets and other information concerning the storage, handling
and other characteristics of the Product (“MSD Sheets”) for all Products at all times. Customer shall ensure that it
provides XXXXXX + XXXXX with MSD Sheets as required by this Article. MSD Sheets shall be provided to XXXXXX + NAGEL’s
Manager of Health and Safety and to the local distribution center manager for any additional Products to
be handled in the distribution center. MSD Sheets for new Products must be furnished at least three (3) weeks
before such Products arrive at the distribution center. However, if the handling and hazard characteristics of additional
Products are the same as the Products then handled in the distribution center, then the MSD Sheets may be provided one (1)
week in advance. XXXXXX + XXXXX reserves the right, but not the obligation, to exclude Products from the
distribution center (or require the immediate removal of such Products) if XXXXXX + XXXXX determines in its sole
judgment that it does not have complete and correct information as required by this Article 3. If Customer fails to
remove the Products, XXXXXX + XXXXX will return such Products to Customer in a commercially reasonable manner and Customer
will reimburse XXXXXX + XXXXX for its out-of-pocket expense stemming from the same. Pending such disposition
XXXXXX + XXXXX may remove the Products from the distribution center and shall incur no liability by
reason of such removal.
3.3 Tender of Products: Packaging and Labeling. All Products shall be delivered to the
distribution center properly marked and packaged for handling, storage and transportation in accordance with Legal
Requirements (as defined in Article 3.6). By tendering Products to XXXXXX + XXXXX, Customer represents and
warrants that: (i) there are no known potential health, safety and/or environmental hazards associated with the proper
storage and handling of said Products which have not been disclosed pursuant to Article 3.2 and
(ii) Customer is lawfully possessed of the Products and has the right and authority to store them
with XXXXXX + XXXXX. Customer shall furnish at or prior to such delivery, a manifest showing marks,
brands, or sizes to be kept and accounted for separately, and the class of storage and other
services desired. Upon request, Customer will provide XXXXXX + XXXXX with the approximate weight of
each Product (including packaging, dunnage etc) by SKU number.
3.4 Access to Products. XXXXXX + XXXXX grants to Customer access to Products by duly
authorized personnel upon reasonable request, subject to this Agreement and XXXXXX + NAGEL’s health,
safety and security procedures. Customer acknowledges that collective bargaining agreements at certain XXXXXX +
XXXXX facilities may limit XXXXXX + NAGEL’s ability to allow Customer to handle its own Products at the distribution center.
3.5 Disposal of Product. Customer shall retain sole and exclusive authority with respect to the disposal of
any damaged, expired, out-of-date Products or otherwise unsaleable items and shall cause the
removal of such Products from the distribution center in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements at
Customer’s expense. Customer will be exclusively responsible for contracting with duly qualified and authorized entities for the
transportation and disposal of hazardous materials and arranging such transportation and disposal in each instance. As
necessary, Customer will obtain, in its own name, all required permits for such disposal, including by way of
illustration and not limitation, EPA Identification Numbers and Hazardous Waste Generator permits. Manifests and other relevant
documentation will be executed by an authorized representative of Customer. XXXXXX + NAGEL’s involvement will be to
comply with Customer’s requirements (provided that such requirements are not inconsistent with this
Agreement) and to tender the materials to authorized carriers as Customer’s agent. Customer will comply with this
obligation and cause the removal of Hazardous Materials from the distribution center so as to prevent the requirement that the
distribution center be licensed as a Transfer Storage and Disposal Facility (TSDF) or similar facility under applicable Legal
Requirements.
3.6 Legal Requirements Defined. The term “Legal Requirements” means all present
and future, laws, statutes, ordinances, requirements, orders, directions, rules and regulations of
any kind or nature, whether statutory or common law, including, without limitation, all
environmental laws, issued or enforced by any Governmental Authority,
which governs or applies in any way to the Products. The term “Governmental Authority” means
the Federal, state, county and municipal governments and all other governmental authorities or
quasi-governmental authorities having or claiming jurisdiction, together with the insurance
underwriting board or insurance inspection bureau having or claiming jurisdiction, or any other
body exercising similar functions, and all insurance companies writing policies covering the
Products, the distribution center or any part thereof.
4. Receipts; Shipments and Product Handling.
4.1 Shipments. By providing Services, XXXXXX + XXXXX is acting as a warehouseman
without beneficial title or interest in such property. Therefore, Customer shall ship Products to XXXXXX + XXXXX
in Customer’s name (e.g., Customer c/o KUEHNE + XXXXX) and will not ship Products to XXXXXX + XXXXX as the named
consignee. If Products are shipped to XXXXXX + XXXXX as named consignee, then Customer shall promptly notify
the carrier in writing regarding XXXXXX + NAGEL’s status. Customer shall protect and defend XXXXXX + XXXXX
against all costs or expenses in connection with the improper designation of XXXXXX + XXXXX as the consignee.
These costs and expenses may include, by way of example: claims for unpaid transportation charges, including
undercharges, demurrage, detention. If Customer fails to satisfy its obligations under this Article then, upon notice
to Customer, XXXXXX + XXXXX may refuse such Products and will not be liable or responsible for any resulting loss, injury or damage.
4.2 Capacity. XXXXXX + NAGEL’s ability to promptly load and unload Products depends upon receiving
adequate notice regarding incoming and outgoing volumes. Therefore, Customer will provide
XXXXXX + XXXXX with as much notice as possible regarding anticipated receipt and shipment activity. XXXXXX + XXXXX
will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the capability to promptly load and unload
Customer’s shipments of Products. When estimated volumes become higher than can be reasonably handled during the
normal work week, XXXXXX + XXXXX shall advise Customer of the estimated overtime hours required to handle the
incremental volume without delays. XXXXXX + XXXXX will use its best efforts to provide Customer with twenty-four
(24) hours’ advance notification of the need for overtime hours. If Customer approves the overtime hours to avoid
delays, Customer will reimburse XXXXXX + XXXXX accordingly. Modest levels of routine overtime, not in excess of five
(5%) percent of the total hours per week to handle normal operations, shall not require advance notification and
approval of Customer.
4.3 Abnormally Rapid Growth. XXXXXX + XXXXX may incur staffing problems that may
affect XXXXXX + NAGEL’s performance under this Agreement if Customer estimated volumes are not substantially
correct or if the account experiences “abnormally rapid growth”. A twenty percent (20%) increase in orders for
Products over either projected orders for a particular week or the average volume for the prior month shall be
deemed an “abnormally rapid growth” unless Customer has advised XXXXXX + XXXXX in writing of such change at least two (2)
weeks in advance. XXXXXX + NAGEL’s inability to provide timely services as a result of incorrect forecasts or
“abnormally rapid growth” shall not constitute default by XXXXXX + XXXXX under this Agreement, provided that, in any
event, XXXXXX + XXXXX shall use its best efforts to perform the services in accordance with the standards set forth herein.
4.4 Detention. Customer shall advise its suppliers that motor carriers with shipments must obtain an
appointment for delivery at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to arrival at the distribution
center. XXXXXX + XXXXX
shall not be responsible for trailer detention cost or demurrage.
4.5 Concealed Damage. XXXXXX + XXXXX will notify Customer upon becoming aware of Products that
are received in a damaged condition. Damaged Products will be segregated from undamaged
Products and disposed of at
the direction of Customer. Customer will provide materials to recover all Products that it
wishes recovered. Charges for
recouping will be pursuant to XXXXXX + NAGEL’s standard hourly rates.
4.6 Customer Instructions. Customer shall provide XXXXXX + XXXXX with all information, instructions
and authorizations as XXXXXX + XXXXX may require in order to perform the Services hereunder.
All information, instructions and authorizations by Customer to XXXXXX + XXXXX shall comply with all applicable
federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations, and XXXXXX + XXXXX has no responsibility to confirm or
verify the adequacy, accuracy or validity thereof. In performing the Services hereunder, XXXXXX + XXXXX shall act
in accordance with, and shall be entitled to rely upon, all written, oral, facsimile and electronic information,
instructions and authorizations provided by or on behalf of Customer and received by it. In the
absence of any such instructions, XXXXXX + XXXXX shall, at its election, either (i) defer taking
any action pending the receipt of instructions from Customer or (ii) take such action as it deems
reasonably necessary under the circumstances, and, in either such event, XXXXXX + XXXXX shall be
protected from any claim or liability provided XXXXXX + XXXXX shall have acted in good faith and
in a commercially reasonable manner.
4.7 Procedures. Customer may, if required due to the nature of the Products or a
specific Customer requirement, provide XXXXXX + XXXXX with written Receiving, Shipment and/or Storage
procedures (“SOPs”). The parties agree that such procedures and SOPs are designed to implement and supplement the purpose of
this Agreement. Customer recognizes that circumstances and/or sound business judgment will
sometimes require a deviation from established or recommended SOPs. SOPs shall be considered
guidelines regarding certain operational issues in key business areas and shall not provide a basis
for a claim of breach of contract unless such failures are unreasonably repeated and unjustified.
Where there is a conflict between a particular procedure and this Agreement, this Agreement shall
control.
4.8 Licenses: Compliance with Laws. Customer shall be responsible for compliance with
all Legal Requirements which govern or apply in any way to the Products, including, without limitation,
all environmental laws, except to the extent that any violation is attributable to XXXXXX + XXXXX. Customer shall
obtain all licenses and/or permits that are specifically required for the storage, handling and distribution of the
Products at or from the distribution center. The Customer has no obligation, however, to obtain any license or permit that is
generally required for XXXXXX + XXXXX to carry out its business or specifically required for any other customer.
5. Pricing and Payments.
5.1 Pricing. The pricing of XXXXXX + NAGEL’s services under the Scope of Work shall be
as set forth on Exhibit C attached hereto and made a part hereof, as such Exhibit may be amended from
time to time in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The pricing for the International Services shall be presented to
Customer on an as-needed basis, or a per transportation mode or per project basis. For example, as shipments of Product
need to be directed to a new location outside of the United States, the pricing and terms related to such shipments
shall be presented to Customer for its review and approval.
5.2 Storage Charges. Storage
charges become applicable upon the date that XXXXXX + XXXXX accepts
care, custody and control of the Products, regardless of unloading date or date of issue of
warehouse receipt. A full month’s storage charge will apply on all Products received between the first and the 15th,
inclusive, of a calendar month; one-half month’s storage charge will apply on all Products received
between the 16th and the last day, inclusive, of a calendar month, and a full month’s storage

vehicles not at distribution center door will be charged to Customer.
5.4 90-Day Review of Pricing. It is understood that the pricing established by XXXXXX + XXXXX was
developed based on the account characteristics provided by Customer and certain operational
assumptions. Pricing will be reviewed by both XXXXXX + XXXXX and Customer ninety (90) days following commencement of
operations and on at least each anniversary date thereafter. Based on these reviews, the pricing will be
adjusted by mutual agreement of the parties in accordance with the variations in the account characteristics and operational assumptions.
5.5 Invoicing. XXXXXX + XXXXX shall invoice Customer monthly for services provided and Customer
shall, within thirty (30) days from invoice date, remit payment to XXXXXX + XXXXX during the

XXXXX and shall set forth the charges in reasonable detail. An interest charge at the rate of one and one-half
percent (1-1/2%) per month shall be assessed on the entire unpaid balance of an account that is not paid within thirty (30)
days of the invoice date. In the event of litigation or collection activity arising out of Customer’s nonpayment, XXXXXX +
XXXXX will be entitled to reasonable costs and expenses incurred, including attorneys’ fees. Without limiting its other
remedies, XXXXXX + XXXXX also reserves the right to suspend Services upon five (5) business days written notice
to Customer in the event that any of Customer’s accounts with XXXXXX + XXXXX become delinquent.
5.6 Invoice Disputes. In the event Customer contests any XXXXXX + XXXXX invoice, it
will so notify XXXXXX + XXXXX within thirty (30) days from the invoice date. The parties will enter
into good faith discussions to
resolve any disputed charge. However, Customer agrees to pay those portions of the invoice which
are not in dispute within the above guidelines.
5.7 CPI Increase. The pricing set forth on Exhibit C shall increase on
or about January 1st of each year by a percentage equal to the seasonally-adjusted CPI
Increase. The “CPI Increase” is the percentage by which the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) for
September of the current year exceeds the CPI for September of the prior year. The term “CPI” shall
mean the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Washington, D.C. — Consumer
Price Index for All Urban Customers seasonally adjusted U.S. city average: All items (1982-1984 =
100) as periodically published, or if such CPI shall be discontinued, then any other comparable or
similar index as shall be periodically published by the United States Department of Labor or any
other Department or Division of the United States Government. The CPI Increase will be applied
after considering, and adjusting for, any changes in account characteristics or Services during the
intervening period as well as projected changes in such characteristics and/or Services upon mutual
agreement of the parties.
6. Expenses.

Start-Up Expenses shall include, without limitation: product handling equipment, racking, dedicated staffing
acquisition costs, costs of compliance with Legal Requirements which apply to the Services as they relate to Customer’s
specific products or operations (as opposed to general commodities or generic warehouse operations). Additional
detail regarding Start-Up Expenses is shown in Exhibit C to this Agreement. Customer shall not be obligated to
pay Start-Up Expenses in excess of those specified in Exhibit C unless it has consented to such increase(s) or
additional expenses in writing. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Start Up Expenses are payable within fifteen (15) days of XXXXXX + NAGEL’s invoice.

and charges relating to its Products within the distribution center. Such taxes shall be paid directly by Customer to the taxing authority.
6.3 Costs of Compliance. If XXXXXX + XXXXX incurs additional costs for compliance with Legal
Requirements as a result of the storage, handling or transportation of the Products, as
compared to compliance costs for XXXXXX + XXXXX to carry out its business in general or due to its work for customers, then
Customer will pay such costs upon presentment of XXXXXX + NAGEL’s invoice and supporting documentation.
7. Liability for Loss and Damaged Product.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement or in any exhibit, addenda, supplement or procedure issued herewith or subsequent to this Agreement, in no event shall XXXXXX + XXXXX be liable for loss of, damage to, or delay in delivery of such Products unless such loss, damage or delay resulted from the failure by XXXXXX + XXXXX to exercise such care in regards to said Products as a reasonable, careful person would exercise under like circumstances and XXXXXX + XXXXX shall not be liable for losses which could not have been avoided by the exercise of such care.

independent contractor. Any provisions in this Agreement which may appear to give Customer the right to direct
