NEW AND CHANGED METHODS, PROCESSES AND EQUIPMENT
Seller agrees to keep abreast of major developments in the graphic arts and data processing industries and to promptly advise Buyer of any developments which might affect the production of the directories. If Seller acquires a short cut off press, then any paper trim savings from the use of such press will be passed through to Buyer following one full cycle (both Spring and Fall production) once the press is fully operational and is used to print Buyer’s products.
Seller will commit the necessary time and resources to explore all options and opportunities regarding Direct-to-Film and Direct-to-Plate technologies (Imposetting) in view of their application in the production of Buyer’s directories in collaboration with Buyer.
If it is mutually agreed by Buyer and Seller that Imposetting technology is mutually beneficial, implementation will occur within two (2) years from the time it has been agreed by both parties to be mutually beneficial.
Implementation is conditional upon Seller being able to secure commercially available equipment that will allow for the application of this technology to improve the production efficiencies of Buyer’s directories. If the technology and equipment are not commercially available, Buyer and Seller agree to investigate the feasibility of jointly funding prototype developmental costs.
NON-WAIVER
Buyer’s failure at any time to enforce any of the provisions of the Agreement or any right or remedy available hereunder or at law or equity, or to exercise any option herein provided will in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provisions, rights, remedies or options or in any way affect the validity of this Agreement. The exercise by Buyer of any rights, remedies or options provided hereunder or at law or equity shall not preclude or prejudice the exercising thereafter of the same or any other rights, remedies or options.

The paper shall be billed to Buyer upon completion and shipment of the directory in accordance with the appropriate paper factors found in the PRICE SCHEDULES, (Attachment I, Sections B through D) contained in this Agreement and at the appropriate price of paper for the current period in accordance with the price set forth in ATTACHMENT VI. Seller is responsible for and will pay all freight and shipping charges in connection with the delivery of paper to any of Seller’s or its subcontractor’s facilities.
PROCESSING MEDIA
The term “PROCESSING MEDIA” (hereinafter referred to as “MEDIA”) includes tapes, discs, positives, negatives, film plates, or any other product used or developed by Seller to produce the directories in its final form. MEDIA does not include software. Seller shall, without extra charge and in a manner satisfactory to Buyer, (1) store and maintain MEDIA in a logically organized and good condition, (2) replace worn or damaged MEDIA as required, and (3) store plate-ready film flats of any issue of a subscriber directory or yellow pages directory until the delivery of the next issue of that subscriber or yellow pages directory.

Seller agrees to submit to Buyer all advertising, sales promotion, press releases and other PUBLICITY matters relating to the Printing Services furnished by Seller under this Agreement wherein Buyer’s names or marks are mentioned or language from which the connection of said names or marks therewith may be inferred or implied; and Seller further agrees not to publish or use such advertising, sales promotion, press releases, or PUBLICITY matters without Buyer’s prior written approval.
QUALITY COMMITMENT
Quality is conformance to customer’s requirements and general industry standards. Seller agrees that its commitment to Quality and the processes it has in place to fulfill this commitment with respect to each service and material provided by Seller are primary and material requirements of this Agreement. In
Page 14 of 18
addition to any other rights or remedy available to Buyer under this Agreement, Buyer reserves the right to assure, throughout the term of this Agreement, Seller’s continued commitment to Quality and Seller agrees to take appropriate steps, as noted by Buyer, to improve Seller’s commitment to Quality.
Seller will demonstrate commitment to a Quality Improvement Process by providing:
1. | A published statement of its quality policy signed by an officer of the company; |
2. | An established means of measuring and reporting customer satisfaction; |
3. | A quality training and awareness program; |
4. | A continuous quality Improvement Process; |
5. | An established means of monitoring conformance to requirements for products; and |
6. | An established in-coming Material Quality Inspection Program. |
RECORD AND AUDIT
Seller shall maintain complete and accurate RECORDS of all amounts billable to and payments made by Buyer hereunder in accordance with generally accepted accounting practices. Seller shall retain such
RECORDS for a period of three (3) years from the date of final payment for Printing Services covered by this Agreement. Seller agrees to provide reasonable supporting documentation concerning any disputed
amount of invoice to Buyer within thirty (30) days after Buyer provides written notification of the dispute to Seller.
REJECTIONS
If Buyer rejects any or all of the directories, Buyer may exercise one of the following remedies: (1) return rejected directories for full credit at the price charge plus transportation charges from Seller’s plant and return; or (2) accept a conforming part of any shipment; or (3) have rejected directories replaced by
Seller at the purchase price stipulated in this Agreement if Buyer has not previously paid for those directories and at Seller’s expense if Buyer has previously paid for the directories. The above rejection options are in addition to any and all recourse Buyer wishes to take regarding termination for non-performance under the TERMINATION clause.
Seller agrees that in the event Buyer rejects any or all directories, Seller will, if requested by buyer, use its best efforts to replace said directories immediately or as soon as practical.
REPRINT
If the Buyer decides to reprint the title, Seller must reprint the required quantity for that title. Seller must reprint the directory within a reasonable time and at the prices found in the PRICE SCHEDULES, Attachment I, Sections A through D.
Seller will reduce MAKEREADY prices by 33% for all reprints. If Seller is allowed a reasonable time to reprint any title, Seller will guarantee no overtime premium charges.
SCHEDULES
To assist Seller in providing for Buyer’s requirements Buyer shall submit SCHEDULE requests on August 1st of each year of the Agreement for the Spring production and on March 1st for the Fall production of the succeeding year, indicating Buyer’s total requirements for the work hereunder, including Buyer’s total
Page 15 of 18
quantities, number of pages, number of colors to be printed, special section requirements and directory ship dates for each issue. These SCHEDULE requests shall be used by Seller to devise a final production SCHEDULE which specifies the work flow and method of manufacture for each directory.
If an individual SCHEDULE request or print order changes the date upon which final copy is due, compared to the due date in the previous year, or increase the number of printed pages or bound directories in excess of 10% over the last actual printed page count or bound directories in the preceding year for that directory, it may become necessary to revise, by mutual agreement, the production SCHEDULE and manufacturing plan for that directory.
SEVERABILITY
In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall, for any reason, be held to be unenforceable in any respect, such unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall then be construed as if such unenforceable provision or provisions never had been contained herein.
SURVIVAL
All obligations hereunder on Seller’s part incurred prior to the cancellation, termination, or expiration of this Agreement or any order placed hereunder by Buyer shall survive such cancellation, termination, or expiration.
TAXES
Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Buyer shall reimburse Seller only for the following Tax Payments and returns with respect to transactions under this Agreement, Federal Manufacturers’ and Retailers’ excise taxes, state and local sales taxes and use taxes, as applicable. Taxes payable by Buyer shall be billed as separate items on Seller’s invoices.
The cost of Federal Insurance Contribution Act and Federal and State Unemployment Insurance Taxes are not included in the prices set forth in Attachment I - PRICE SCHEDULES, Section B only. Rates currently in effect are reflected on Attachment VI and are hereby incorporated into this Agreement. In the event of any increase or decrease in such rates or in the percentage of Seller’s payroll subject to such taxes occasioned by legislative changes or changes in Seller’s experience rating or in the event the Seller is required to pay any additional payroll tax on account of any work or act performed under this Agreement, the prices set forth in Attachment I - PRICE SCHEDULE, Section B only, and the Social Security Tax Factors set forth in Attachment VII shall be adjusted to reflect any such new, increased or decreased tax.
If the Seller is required to pay an excise, privilege, processing, gross receipts or similar tax not now imposed on account of any act required for the performance of this Agreement, the cost of such new or increased tax shall be added as an extra charge.
In no event shall Buyer be obligated to make to Seller any payment for or reimbursement of taxes or other levies on Seller based upon or measured by Seller’s net income.
Page 16 of 18
TERMINATION
In addition to the expiration of this Agreement as provided herein, and in addition to the parties’ rights of termination specifically provided elsewhere in this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated as set forth below:
(1) | Termination for Breach |
In the event that Seller breaches any material obligation hereunder, including without limitation any of its obligations with respect to quality, specification, or delivery schedules (for which time is of the essence), Buyer shall give Seller written notice specifying in reasonable detail the breach and requesting that the breach be cured (the “CURE NOTICE”). If Seller fails to cure the specified breach within five business days of receipt of the Cure Notice, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement effective immediately upon the giving of written notice of termination to Seller.
(2) | Insolvency |
Upon the occurrence of an Insolvency Event of Default (as defined below), the other party may, at its option, terminate this Agreement effective immediately upon the giving of written notice of termination. The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute an “Insolvency Event of Default”: a party admits in writing its inability to pay its debts generally or makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; an affirmative act of insolvency by a party of any partition or action, under any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency arrangement, liquidation, dissolution or moratorium law, or any other law or laws for the relief of, or relating to, debtors; or the subjection of a material part of a party’s property to any levy, seizure, assignment or sale for or by any creditor, third party or governmental agency.
(3) | Additional Rights |
The rights of termination set forth above shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies the terminating party may have hereunder or at law or in equity.
THIRD PARTY CLAIMS
Seller shall reimburse Buyer for any loss or expense arising out of claims made by subscribers or advertisers by reason of any errors or omissions in subscriber or yellow page directories caused by Seller or any subcontractor of Seller. Seller’s LIABILITY shall be limited to $1,500 for each such claim based on such error or omission. Seller agrees to acknowledge or to disavow Seller’s responsibility for a claim within thirty (30) days of Buyer’s written notification to the Seller.
TITLE
TITLE to the directories shall vest in Buyer when the directory has been loaded on the transport vehicle at Seller’s loading dock. In any event, and regardless of which party holds formal title, Seller agrees to insure all directories and other materials while those materials are in Seller’s facilities. Seller agrees to pay to Buyer any insurance proceeds it receives in connection with, or relating to, any directories or other property of Buyer located at Seller’s premises.
Page 17 of 18

Postage shall be prepaid by Seller and invoiced to Buyer as a separate item accompanied by receipts. Seller agrees to ship all initial distribution quantities out of plant via U.S. Mail.
USE OF INFORMATION
All INFORMATION in written, printed, graphic or other form furnished to Seller under this Agreement or in contemplation of this Agreement remains Buyer’s property, shall be kept confidential by Seller and shall be returned to Buyer at Buyer’s request.

Seller shall keep confidential and safeguard all INFORMATION covered by this Agreement now and hereafter in Seller’s possession and prevent their use by any other person or persons. Seller shall promptly destroy all extra proofs and copies of any of the directory or portion thereof.

Seller agrees to notify Buyer promptly of any change in circumstances or newly discovered defect or exposure that would have a material adverse impact on its Year 2000 readiness. Seller will furnish to Buyer upon request the results of such assessment study, as well as the methodology and assumptions used to conduct the assessment study. In no event will the Year 2000 computer problem constitute a force majeure event or a Contingency hereunder.
