In addition, in the event that Parkdale fails to deliver Yarn on any required delivery date, Delta may utilize an alternative supply source with respect to such Yarn. Claims by Delta for inadequate delivery of Yarn shall be void unless Delta gives Parkdale written notice of the claim within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of the Yarn at the destination designated by Delta.

If Parkdale fails to deliver any Yarn hereunder free of encumbrances, Delta may reject such Yarn pursuant to SECTION 6 or Delta may, upon written notice to Parkdale, require that Parkdale, at its expense, defend the title thereto and promptly cause any security interest, claim, demand, lien, or other encumbrance to be removed. EXCEPT FOR THE WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 5, PARKDALE MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES OF QUALITY, AND PARKDALE HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OF QUALITY, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WHETHER CREATED BY CONTRACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. 6. Rejection of Yarn.

(b) Upon rejection of Yarn by Delta, Parkdale shall promptly replace the nonconforming Yarn with Yarn conforming to the warranties in SECTION 5 of this Agreement. Parkdale shall bear all costs in fulfilling its obligation to replace nonconforming Yarn, including all freight costs associated with return of nonconforming Yarn to Parkdale and all freights costs associated with the shipment of replacement Yarn to Delta. 7.

Such invoices shall be payable by Delta on a net forty-five (45) day basis following actual receipt of the invoice. All payments shall be remitted to Parkdale at the address specified in or given pursuant to SECTION 18 hereof. Delta is solely responsible for, and will pay, any and all applicable sales, use, value added, or excise taxes, and any and all imposts, customs, duties or consular fees or charges related to importation or exportation of goods, imposed by any governmental authority in the Territory in connection with the sale of Yarn by Parkdale to Delta (collectively "Taxes"), excluding, however, any Taxes measured upon Parkdale's income. Each party agrees to take all actions reasonably required to obtain exemptions from or reductions of Taxes (other than income Taxes) required to be paid or withheld that may be applicable to any payment due hereunder. Parkdale agrees to pay to Delta all rebate amounts actually received by Parkdale under any rebate program(s) administered by the USDA for the benefit of cotton consumers to the extent such rebates are attributable to bales of cotton opened by Parkdale to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement. Such rebate payments shall be made by Parkdale within seven (7) days of the end of each month. 8. Purchase Orders. All sales of Yarn produced for Delta in accordance with this Agreement will be made pursuant to purchase orders submitted by Delta from time to time, the terms of which shall be controlled by the terms of this Agreement, regardless of whether such purchase orders reference this Agreement. To the extent the terms of a purchase order conflict with the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. Except as provided in SECTION 4(b) with respect to delivery schedules, each purchase order for Yarn submitted by Delta in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed automatically accepted by Parkdale, subject to the provisions of Section 4(b) with respect to delivery requirements. 9. Limitation of Liability. Subject to compliance with the Specifications and without limiting SECTION 5, the determination of the suitability of the Yarn furnished hereunder for the uses contemplated by Delta is the sole responsibility of Delta and Parkdale shall have no responsibility in connection therewith. Except in the case of gross negligence or gross misconduct, Parkdale's sole liability and Delta's sole remedy for the non-delivery or delivery of inadequate quantities of Yarn, or for the delivery of Yarn not conforming to Specifications, shall be for Delta's direct damages, if such failure is not excused pursuant to SECTION 11 of this Agreement. Neither party shall, under any circumstances, be liable for loss of profits or any other indirect or consequential damages except in the case of gross negligence or gross misconduct. 10. Confidentiality. (a) This Agreement, the terms herof, and all information furnished or to be furnished by Delta to Parkdale or by Parkdale to Delta in connection with and during the Term of this Agreement shall be kept confidential by the party receiving said information, except for purposes authorized by this Agreement, and neither party shall disclose such information to any person or firm unless previously authorized in writing by the other party to do so; provided, however, that the party receiving such information may disclose the same to its responsible officers and employees who require the information for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement, provided that such officers and employees are made aware of, and agree to be bound by, the provisions of this Section. Any other provision hereof to the contrary notwithstanding, it is expressly understood and agreed by the parties that each party's obligations of confidentiality and nondisclosure herein assumed shall not apply to any information which (i) such party can demonstrate was already lawfully in its possession prior to the disclosure thereof by the other party, (ii) became known to the public through no fault of such party, (iii) is later lawfully acquired by such party from other sources without breach of any confidentiality obligation; or (iv) is required to be disclosed by applicable law or legal process. In the event that disclosure is required pursuant to legal process, (a) the receiving party shall provide the other party with prompt notice of such requirement so the other party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement; (b) in the event that a protective order or other remedy is obtained, the receiving party shall use all reasonable efforts to assure that all information disclosed shall be covered by such order or other remedy; and (c) whether or not such protective order or other remedy is obtained or the other party waives compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, the receiving party will disclose only that portion of the information which it is legally required to disclose. (b) The provisions of this SECTION 10 shall remain in force for a period of two (2) years following the termination of this Agreement, except with respect to any information that constitutes a trade secret, the protection of which shall be unlimited in duration. (c) The parties acknowledge that breach of this SECTION 10 by either party may cause damage to the other party which could not be adequately compensated by a monetary award. Accordingly, such other party shall be entitled, in addition to any other right or remedy available to it, to an injunction restraining such breach or any threatened breach and to specific performance of every provision of this SECTION 10 and, in any such case, no security shall be required to be posted in connection with such injunction. 11. Force Majeure. (a) Neither party shall be liable to the other for damages resulting from any failure to perform its obligations hereunder if such failure is due to any of the following: strikes, lockouts, concerted acts of workmen or other industrial disturbances, fires, explosions, floods or other natural catastrophes, civil disturbance, riots or armed conflict whether declared or undeclared, curtailment, shortage, rationing or allocation of normal sources of supply of labor, materials, transportation, energy or utilities, accidents, acts of God, delays of subcontractors or vendors, sufferance of or voluntary compliance with acts of government and government regulations (whether valid or invalid), embargoes, or any other similar or dissimilar cause, any of which is beyond the reasonable control of the party affected and which makes performance commercially impracticable. (b) Neither party shall be required to make any concession or grant any demand or request to bring to an end any strike or other concerted act of workmen. (c) Either party affected by an event described in SECTION 11(a) shall promptly, upon learning of such event and ascertaining that it has affected or will affect that party's performance under this Agreement, give notice to the other party, stating the nature of the event, its anticipated duration and any action being taken to amend or minimize its effect, and such party will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the effect of such event on the performance of its obligations under this Agreement. (d) If any event described in SECTION 11(a) partially reduces Parkdale's ability to produce or deliver Yarn, then Parkdale may prorate its available supply amongst Delta and Parkdale's other customers in a fair and equitable manner. If any event described in SECTION 11(a) partially or wholly reduces Parkdale's ability to produce or deliver Yarn, Delta shall be entitled to purchase Yarn from alternative sources of supply and, if such inability to produce or deliver Yarn persists in excess of sixty (60) days, Delta shall have the option to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Parkdale. (e) Notwithstanding this SECTION 11, Delta shall pay Parkdale for all Yarn shipped and received by Delta during the Term pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 12. Termination. This Agreement may be earlier terminated as set forth below. (a) Either party by written notice may terminate this Agreement at any time if the other party materially defaults in carrying out its terms and does not cure such default within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Delta may terminate this Agreement forthwith upon notice to Parkdale, with no additional cure rights for Parkdale, if Parkdale fails for any reason whatsoever to deliver Yarn in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement on more than two (2) occasions in any one (1) calendar year. (b) Delta may terminate this Agreement forthwith upon notice to Parkdale if Andy Warlick is no longer actively involved in the operation of Parkdale. (c) Delta may terminate this Agreement forthwith upon written notice to Parkdale if (i) Parkdale disposes or attempts to dispose of all or any material portion of its business, whether by way of sale of assets or stock, or by way of merger, consolidation, joint venture or other arrangement, (ii) Parkdale ceases to function as a going concern, (iii) Parkdale ceases to conduct its operations in the ordinary course of business, (iv) a receiver for Parkdale is appointed, or (v) Parkdale otherwise takes advantage of any insolvency, bankruptcy, moratorium or similar laws or an involuntary proceeding under any such laws is initiated against Parkdale and such involuntary proceeding is not dismissed within ninety (90) days after it is initiated.

No termination of this Agreement shall prejudice any claim that arises prior to such termination or arises pursuant to deliveries of Yarn made pursuant to this Agreement. 13. Authority; No Conflict. Each party represents and warrants to the others that (a) it has the power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to carry out its terms and (b) the performance of this Agreement is not restricted by, in violation of, or in conflict with, any applicable agreement, contract, or order to which it is a party. 14.

If said senior management personnel are unable to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days following its referral to them, the Dispute shall be determined and adjudged by a panel of three arbitrators, unless the amount in controversy is less than $250,000, in which case a single arbitrator shall preside. The hearing shall be held in Charlotte, North Carolina. The selection of an arbitrator and the procedure shall be in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules then in effect of the American Arbitration Association.

Any award rendered shall be final and conclusive upon the parties and a judgment thereon may be entered in the highest court of the forum, state or federal, having jurisdiction. The expenses of the arbitration shall be borne equally by the parties to the arbitration, provided that each party pay for and bear the costs of its own experts, evidence, and counsel's fees, and provided further that in the discretion of the arbitrator, any award may include the fees of a party's counsel if the arbitrator expressly determines that the party against which such award is entered has caused the dispute, controversy, or claim to be submitted to arbitration in bad faith. 16. Assignment. Neither party may assign or transfer this Agreement without the other party's written consent, except that (i) Parkdale may assign its rights to payment under this Agreement to any bank, trust company, insurance company, or financial institution under the terms of financing agreements (but any such assignment shall not relieve Parkdale of its obligations hereunder); (ii) Delta may collaterally assign this Agreement to any bank, trust company, insurance company, or financial institution under the terms of financing agreements (but any such assignment shall not relieve Delta of its obligations hereunder); (iii) each of Delta and Parkdale America, LLC may assign this Agreement to a wholly-owned subsidiary or a successor resulting from a consolidation or merger provided that any such successor shall have assumed the obligations of Delta or Parkdale America, LLC, as applicable, hereunder; and (iv) each of Delta and Parkdale may assign this Agreement to a purchaser of substantially all of its business and assets provided that any such purchaser shall have assumed the obligations of Delta or Parkdale, as applicable, hereunder (but any such assignment shall not relieve Delta or Parkdale, as applicable, of its obligations hereunder).
