This Agreement shall thereafter renew automatically each year for a period of one (1) year unless either Party provides written notice of non-renewal to the other party at least ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the then-current term. CUSTOMER shall have the right to require D2000 to continue to receive, store and ship CUSTOMER’S goods for 90 days following the expiration date on the same terms as in effect prior to expiration.

SERVICES TO BE PERFORMED. D2000 shall receive, store and ship CUSTOMER’S goods at and from the FACILITIES. The specific services that D2000 shall provide CUSTOMER, during the term of the Agreement, are set forth on Appendix A.

CUSTOMER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. CUSTOMER represents and warrants that CUSTOMER is lawfully possessed of the goods and has the right to and authority to store them with D2000. CUSTOMER represents and warrants to D2000 that there are no known potential health, safety and/or environmental hazards associated with the storage and handling of such goods. If, as a result of a quality or condition of the goods of which D2000 had no notice at the time of deposit, the goods are a hazard to other property or to the warehouse or to persons, D2000 shall immediately notify CUSTOMER and CUSTOMER shall promptly remove the goods from the warehouse. Pending such disposition, the D2000 may remove the goods from the warehouse and shall incur no liability by reason of such removal.

RATES AND CHARGES. [***].

QUARTERLY AND ANNUAL RECONCILIATION OF RATES TO ACTUAL COSTS. Within 30 days of quarter and year end, the Parties shall review and reconcile the actual costs for services performed on behalf of the CUSTOMER to the rates for such services that were charged as set forth in Appendix A. Parties agree to reconcile and compensate for all additional costs/charges which have been incurred because of such variation(s).

RATE DEFINITIONS.

DIRECT LABOR RATES. Ordinary labor costs for receiving CUSTOMER’S goods at the warehouse door, placing goods in storage, picking orders, returning goods to the warehouse door and loading trucks. Rates will be set annually and unless otherwise agreed, labor will be subject to a charge at the rates set forth in Appendix A and based upon mutually agreed productivity and performance targets as defined in Appendix B. During the first quarterly review after the effective date of this agreement, parties will review the productivity targets and rates set forth in Appendix A & B and with the mutual agreement of both parties adjust these targets and rates without causing a reconciliation payment to either party.

D2000’s performance against these costs/targets will be reviewed quarterly as part of the QUARTERLY RECONCILIATION. If D2000’S performance does not meet these targets, D2000 will reimburse CUSTOMER for any additional DIRECT LABOR costs incurred/charged during the quarter. If D2000 exceeds these targets, D2000 and the CUSTOMER will share equally any benefit. Any significant changes in the CUSTOMER’S business that affect these targets or D2000’s performance during the quarter will be taken into consideration in the QUARTERLY RECONCILIATION and could result in a restatement of these targets earlier than the annual review.

FACILITY FIXED CHARGE. Monthly cost of Rent, Property Taxes, CAM and Insurance on the FACILITIES set forth in Appendix A shall be allocated evenly over the number of pallet spaces available in the FACILITIES and defined in Appendix A and multiplied by the minimum pallet commitment set forth on Appendix A. If on the 15^th of the month, CUSTOMER is using more pallet spaces than the Minimum Pallet Commitment, these additional pallets will be billed at the FACILITY

FIXED CHARGE rate. If the CUSTOMER is using less than the Minimum Pallet Commitment the CUSTOMER will be billed as set forth on Appendix A.

OTHER FIXED CHARGES. Monthly cost of warehouse capital amortization, material handling equipment leases, warehouse management compensation, CUSTOMER service compensation (excluding the CUSTOMER Service Manager as detailed below) and other warehouse operations expenses as set forth in Appendix A. These costs will be allocated and billed proportionately based upon the number of CUSTOMER orders shipped during the month versus the total number of orders shipped from the FACILITIES.

CUSTOMER SERVICE MANAGER COMPENSATION. CUSTOMER may require D2000 to employ a Customer Service Manager (CSM) to oversee the Customer Service Department at D2000 and take responsibility for the Order Entry and Customer Service Management functions currently handled by CUSTOMER. D2000 will provide, at no additional charge, adequate office space, supplies and Internet access to perform these functions. Compensation for the CSM, as defined in Appendix A, will be paid monthly by[***] If the percent of CUSTOMER’S business (defined as CUSTOMER orders shipped during the quarter to total orders shipped), falls below [***] percent (^[***] %) then the compensation rate will no longer be the sole responsibility of the CUSTOMER but will be prorated based on [***].

EXTRA SERVICES. Charges for services other than ordinary handling (i.e., operating during other than usual business hours) incurred at the special request of the CUSTOMER (“Extra Services”) MUST be approved in writing by the CUSTOMER prior to the service being performed and will be billed at the rates set forth in Appendix A.

SUPPLIES. Any items purchased by D2000 to perform CUSTOMER’S business including but not limited to, Pallets, Shrink Wrap, Tape, Banding, etc will be invoiced to CUSTOMER at cost plus a[***]% handling fee.

If CUSTOMER’S pallet requirements exceed the MAX XXXXXX XXXXX, X0000 will provide CUSTOMER access to any available open pallet spaces but is not obligated under this Agreement to guarantee storage for these pallets if open spaces are not available in the FACILITY.

GAIN SHARING BONUS. Annually, Parties will mutually develop Supply Chain/Operational Improvement and Cost Savings projects for the upcoming fiscal year. These projects, detailed on Appendix C, will be jointly supervised by the Parties and led by the Operations Manager at D2000. The GAIN SHARING PROJECTS contain measureable savings and/or productivity targets agreed to by Parties for D2000 to achieve and to be eligible for the GAIN SHARING BONUS. The GAIN SHARING BONUS allocates any measureable savings [***] once the projects targets are met. D2000 will submit monthly status reports and project milestones will be reviewed as part of the QUARTERLY RECONCILIATION. CUSTOMER has the right at its sole discretion and expense, to utilize its employees or outside consultants to aid D2000 in achieving these targets. Any costs for this assistance shall be deducted from any savings prior to the GAIN SHARING BONUS calculation. If CUSTOMER feels that measureable progress is not being made by D2000 toward meeting the GAIN SHARING PROJECTS targets, CUSTOMER may upon giving[***] ) days’ written notice identifying specifically the basis for such notice, terminate this BONUS and immediately change the CSM compensation charge to a prorated basis as defined above.
