1. | INTRODUCTION |
a. | This Vendor Agreement (this “Agreement”) is effective as of June 7, 2011, by and between SYX Distribution Inc. (“SYX”) and the vendor, identified above (“Vendor”). |
b. | Pursuant to this Agreement, Vendor shall sell to SYX such quantity of products and/or services as may be ordered by SYX from time to time pursuant to purchase orders issued by SYX in either written form or electronic form (“Purchase Orders”). All Purchase Orders shall include by reference all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. |
c. | This Agreement can be modified only in a written addendum signed by an Authorized Officer of SYX. Any terms and conditions contained in Vendor’s invoice, acknowledgement, packaging or other documents shall not modify or amend this Agreement in any way, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement and not any other documents shall control and be binding on the parties. This Agreement and any Purchase Orders issued by SYX pursuant to this Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties, and all agreements, offers, confirmations entered into prior to or contemporaneously with this Agreement are excluded whether oral or in writing. |
2. | TERMS OF PRICING, VERSIONS, AND AVAILABILITY. A key aspect of this Agreement is the price, version and availability of the products/services offered for sale. To protect the investment of both parties, Vendor represents the following: |
a. | SYX shall be included in Vendor’s best available class of trade for pricing and terms. Vendor warrants that the prices, benefits or allowances for the products are not less favorable than those prices, benefits or allowances currently extended to any other customers for the same or similar goods in similar quantities. If Vendor supplies goods that are substantially similar to the products that SYX purchases under this Agreement to any third party at a lower price and/or terms more favorable those stated on a Purchase Order, then the prices and/or terms of the applicable Purchase Order shall be deemed automatically revised to equal the lowest prices and most favorable terms at which Vendor shall have sold or shall have offered such goods and payment shall be made accordingly, if SYX shall become entitled to such lower prices, but shall have made payment at any prices in excess thereof, Vendor shall promptly refund the differences in price to SYX. |
b. | Prices recorded in a Purchase Order are not subject to increase. No additional amounts shall be chargeable to SYX because of taxes or excises, presently or hereafter leveled on Vendor. If Vendor’s quoted prices for the products covered by this Agreement are reduced (whether in the form of a price reduction, closeout, rebate, allowances or additional documents offered to anyone) at time of any shipment, Vendor agrees that the price to SYX for such products will be reduced accordingly, and that SYX will be billed at such reduced prices. Vendor will give SYX 30 days prior notice of any change in the wholesale or retail price of the offered products and in the event of a cost drop, Vendor will offer SYX price protection on all its inventory on hand, in transit to SYX affiliate retail stores/warehouse or drop shipped to customers within 30 days of the date of the announcement. |
c. | The version(s) offered for sale will not change and the product(s) offered for sale will not be superseded or discontinued. |
d. | Vendor guarantees that sufficient quantities of its products will be available for shipment to SYX. If Vendor is unable to fill SYX’s orders within the time period indicated in the relevant Purchase Order, it shall be considered a breach of this Agreement and SYX, in its sole discretion, may (a) exercise all remedies pursuant to Section 10(j) hereof; (b) cover by purchasing replacement or substitute products from any other available source; and/or (c) be entitled to all costs incurred as a result of such unavailability of products (including the full costs, lost profits on cancelled or lost orders and all cover or replacement costs). |
3. | TERMS OF PURCHASE |
a. | “ROG” shall mean “Receipt of Goods.” |
b. | Under no circumstances shall SYX be liable for interest, service charges, late charges incurred due to late payment. SYX’s payment obligation is to the Vendor or Distributor from whom the inventory was purchased. SYX will not make payment to a third party or “Factor” under any circumstances. |

Carrier adjustments for insufficient packaging and claims rejected for insufficient packaging will be charged back to the Vendor. Acceptance of delivery of products shipped after the date(s) specified shall not constitute a waiver of SYX’s rights to recover damages for the late delivery. |

9. | CONFIDENTIALITY |
a. | In connection with this Agreement, Vendor may have access to information that is confidential to SYX and/or its affiliates (“Confidential Information”). Confidential Information shall mean all information that is treated as confidential by SYX or information that should reasonably be known to be confidential by Vendor considering the nature of the disclosure and the content of the information, including but not limited to, data and information relating to potential, current and future customers of SYX and/or any of its affiliates or such customers’ purchases, profiles, demographics, contact or other information, including credit card numbers, e-mail addresses and related purchase information, any and all non-personally identifiable or personally identifiable customer information. Confidential information shall not include information that: (a) is or becomes a part of the public domain through no act or omissions of Vendor; (b) was in Vendor’s lawful possession prior to the disclosure and had not been obtained by Vendor either directly or indirectly from SYX and/or its affiliates; (c) is lawfully disclosed to Vendor by a third party without restriction on disclosure; or (d) is independently developed by Vendor.

Vendor acknowledges that disclosure or use of Confidential Information in violation of this Section could cause irreparable harm to SYX for which monetary damages may be difficult to ascertain or an inadequate remedy. Vendor therefore agrees that SYX will have the right, in addition to its other rights and remedies, to seek injunctive relief for any violation of these confidentiality provisions without posting bond, or by posting bond at the lowest amount required by law. Vendor agrees that it shall be liable for all breaches of this Section by its employees or agents. |

The provisions of this paragraph shall not limit or affect SYX’s right to terminate this Agreement as a result of the default of Vendor. |
j. | Remedies: If (i) Vendor shall breach any of its obligations, representations or warranties hereunder, or pursuant to any other agreement between Vendor and SYX or any affiliate of SYX, including but not limited to the Marketing Terms and Conditions with SYX Services Inc. or (ii) if Vendor becomes insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or a petition in bankruptcy is filed by or against it, or a trustee or receiver is appointed over any of its property, then SYX many, in addition to all other rights and remedies available hereunder or at law or in equity, terminate this Agreement in whole or in part by written notice or telefax and SYX shall have no obligation to Vendor whatsoever by reason of such termination.

k. | Labor: Vendor’s acceptance of this Agreement is Vendor’s warranty that Vendor is complying with the U.S. Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 as amended and all applicable laws. |
l. | Invalidity: If any clause of this Agreement is held to be invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, the clause in question shall be modified to eliminate the invalid element and as so modified and the clause shall be binding on the parties. The remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected by the modification of any invalid clause. |
m. | Force Mejeure: The discontinuance of, or a substantial interference with, SYX’s business, in whole or in part, or with the particular department on behalf of which this Agreement is given, by reason of fire, flood, or other act of God, embargo, civil commotion, or war, labor disputes, governmental regulations, or any other acts beyond SYX’s control, shall give SYX the option to cancel, in whole or in part, and without liability, all undelivered orders or unfilled parts of orders or to extend the time of performance of such obligations. |
n. | Independent Contractor: Vendor shall at all times be and remain an independent contractor and not an agent of SYX for any purpose whatsoever and shall have no authority to create or assume any obligations, expressed or implied, as the name of or on behalf of SYX or to bind it in any manner whatsoever. |
o. | Intellectual Property: Vendor shall not, and shall not permit any employee or other agent to use SYX’s trademarks, trade names, service marks, licenses, patents, trade secrets or other intellectual property or other property for any purpose or activity except as expressly authorized or contemplated hereby.

Vendor will not at any time do or cause to be done any act or thing contesting or impairing in any way any such right, title and interest. |
