If either the Buyer or the applicable Seller determines, acting reasonably pursuant to its own analysis, that any delivery of Glencore-Committed By-Products or Other By-Products does not meet the specifications agreed by the Parties under the applicable By-Product Sale Agreement in any respect (“Off-Spec By-Products”), then the Party making such determination shall promptly notify the other Party. The Seller covenants and agrees to notify the Buyer in writing prior to shipment if all or any identifiable portion of the Glencore-Committed By-Products or Other By-Products pursuant to a By-Product Sale Agreement is an Off-Spec By-Product, in which case Buyer reserves the right to reject such Off-Spec By-Products prior to actual shipment thereof. In case Seller fails to inform Buyer prior to shipment and it appears thereafter upon Buyer’s inspection that the applicable Glencore-Committed By-Product or Other By-Product is an Off-Spec By-Product, Buyer shall have the right to reject such material as set out in Section 8.1.3.

If no such remedy is reached, then Seller shall forthwith upon receipt of written notice from Buyer suspend further shipments of the Glencore-Committed By-Products or Other By-Products to Buyer immediately and rejected materials shall be promptly picked up by Seller, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Buyer.

 

  8.1.4

Off-Spec By-Product which is refused by Buyer shall be returned to the Seller and any and all cost arising out of such refusal and return shall be for Seller’s account. The Seller shall provide written instructions to Buyer detailing the Seller’s arrangements for return of the refused Off-Spec By-Product within [XXX] of the date on which Buyer refused the Off-Spec By-Product.

Any losses, charges, expenses and/or liabilities incurred by Buyer with respect to such refused Off-Spec By-Product including any handling, stockpiling, transportation, treatment, disposal and other charges shall be for the Seller’s account.
