Further details for each policy are contained in the Vendor Book. Seller shall name Buyer and Buyer's subsidiaries and affiliates as an additional insured under such coverage as described in the Vendor Book. Seller shall deliver to Buyer a certificate of insurance evidencing the required coverage to Buyer prior to any delivery of Product. Seller shall provide Buyer at least 60 days prior written notice of any cancellation, change, or reduction of such coverage (a "Change in Insurance") and any such Change in Insurance shall constitute a material breach of the Agreement. In addition, Seller shall provide indemnification to Buyer and Buyer's affiliates as more fully described in the Vendor Book.
9. Indemnity. Seller shall defend, indemnify, and hold Buyer and Buyer's affiliates and Buyer's and Buyer's affiliates' franchisees and licensees harmless from and against all claims, expenses, liabilities, losses, and damage, including reasonable attorney's fees, resulting from, or arising in connection with, (i) the failure of the Products to conform in any respect to the representations and warranties contained in any part of this Agreement, (ii) the failure of the Products to meet label claims or Buyer's quality control standards, (iii) the promotion, sale, purchase, resale, or use of the Products or any litigation or threatened litigation based thereon, and (iv) all intellectual property infringement and misappropriation claims based on the Products. Such right of indemnity shall exist in favor of the Buyer even though the negligence, gross negligence, strict liability, common law or statutory fault of the Buyer, or any of them, was the sole cause, a producing cause or a concurring cause of the claim, demand, controversy or cause of action in question. This indemnity and defense shall be in addition to other remedies afforded to Buyer or Buyer's affiliates at law or in equity. This indemnity and defense shall survive acceptance of the Products and payment therefore by Buyer. Seller shall assume Buyer's contractual obligations to defend and indemnify Buyer's affiliates and Buyer's affiliates' franchisees and licensees from all claims, expenses, liabilities, losses, and damages, including reasonable attorney's fees, resulting from the promotion, sale, purchase, resale, or use of the Products.

THE EXISTENCE OF MORE THAN ONE CLAIM WILL NOT ENLARGE OR EXTEND THESE LIMITS.
3
11. Margin Neutrality. A Product's margin percentage is calculated by subtracting the Buyer's Product cost from the Product's retail price and dividing that result by the Product's retail price. A margin percentage is established with the initial sale of the Product at Buyer's corporate stores. If Buyer wishes to promote the Product thereafter by lowering the retail price of the Product, the Seller agrees to lower the cost of the Product for each unit sold during the promotion such that the Buyer's originally calculated margin percentage remains neutral (i.e, the same as it was before Buyer lowered the retail price). The difference between the original Product cost and the reduced Product cost during the promotion multiplied by the units sold during the promotion period equal the markdown monies ("Markdown Monies") owed to Buyer from Seller. The units of Product sold during the promotion period will be based on (a) for franchise sales, units sold by Buyer to franchisees and (b) for corporate sales, units sold at corporate retail stores. All promotions will be available to franchise stores. Solely with regard to sales of the Product from the Buyer to franchisees, the promotional pricing for the Product will start two weeks prior to the start date of the promotion in corporate retail stores and end two weeks prior to the end date of the promotion in corporate retail stores. Markdown Monies will be paid by Seller based on units sold at the end of each month during the promotion. Payment will be automatically deducted by Buyer from Seller's account via credit memo. If there is not an open balance to deduct against, Seller will issue a check payment in full within 30 days of Buyer's written notification.
GENERAL TERMS
A. Pricing Terms. Seller guarantees that the Prices are the lowest currently available. Should lower prices become applicable for any of Seller's customers, the Prices will automatically and immediately become applicable for Buyer. Upon request of Buyer, Seller shall confirm in writing that the Prices are Seller's lowest offered price. Seller shall work continuously on achieving cost savings and improvements in raw materials, specifications, packaging, and production efficiencies to the benefit of both Parties and those savings and improvements shall be promptly passed on to Buyer in the form of lower Prices and improved Products. Seller shall provide Buyer ninety (90) days written notice on any and all cost increases.
B. Ordering and Delivery. The Transportation Department shall determine and arrange all transportation requirements for FOB Destination—FREIGHT COLLECT deliveries. If Seller is to arrange transportation, Seller shall provide estimates to the Transportation Department for verification of reasonableness and approval of selected carrier before shipment is made.

GENERAL NUTRITION RETURNS AGREEMENT
Buyer has a Reverse Logistics Program that allows Buyer to return to Seller for credit (or for a cash payment at Buyer's sole option) any and all of the Products purchased by Buyer under the Purchasing Agreement to which this Returns Agreement (this "Agreement") is an Exhibit (the "Purchasing Agreement"), any units of any Products that are (i) defective, (ii) outdated, (iii) discontinued by Buyer (pursuant to the criteria set forth in this Agreement), or (iv) recalled using a centralized returns system. A "recalled product" is a Product or ingredient in a Product for which a recall has been requested by Seller or any government entity. A "defective product" is a Product that contains latent defects relating to the quality of the Product or the Product's packaging.
Seller agrees that Buyer's designated reclamation center (the "Reclamation Center") shall process all Products and provide detailed reporting services. The Products will be returned to the Reclamation Center. Buyer reserves the right to change the Reclamation Center at any time. All Products returned via this Agreement to the Reclamation Center shall be held for Seller's review for 21 days after notice of return is provided to Seller; at that time if not reviewed or no decision has been provided to Buyer by Seller, the Product may be disposed of at the discretion of Buyer.
Retail and wholesale sales of the Products will be evaluated by Buyer on a rolling eight week basis as per agreed full distribution to Buyer's stores, and Buyer may elect to discontinue any Products and return such Products to Seller if, during such eight week period, either sales of such Product (i) fall below the minimum sales threshold in Buyer-owned stores as set forth on Exhibit 1 of the Purchasing Agreement for such Product (the "Minimum Sales Threshold") or (ii) do not meet the minimum overall inventory Turn Rate (as defined below) in Buyer-owned stores as set forth on Exhibit 1 of the Purchasing Agreement for such Product (the "Minimum Overall Inventory Turn Rate").
A "Turn Rate" means the quotient of (i) the aggregate of the last eight weeks of Buyer's cost of the individual Product sold resulting from retail sales of the individual Product in Buyer-owned stores divided by (ii) the average cost of the aggregate individual Product in inventory at Buyer-owned stores and 70% of distribution centers inventory during the same eight week period. The calculated value of 70% of distribution centers inventory accounts for Product inventory allocated to Buyer-owned stores. For clarity purposes, the term "individual Product" in the preceding sentence refers to one specific Product listed on Exhibit 1 to the Purchasing Agreement and not all of the Products collectively listed on Exhibit 1 to the Purchasing Agreement. Seller agrees that any of the Products previously delivered to Buyer and that are in Buyer's inventory prior to execution of this Agreement are subject to the terms of this Agreement.
Seller agrees to provide Buyer with a letter of credit to satisfy any amounts Seller owes Buyer under this Agreement.
Buyer's objectives under this Agreement are:
• | Fairness to all parties |
9
• | Total accountability |
• | Supplier designated disposition of products |
• | Thorough, accurate, and timely communication with Buyer's suppliers |
Buyer shall receive a credit (or at Buyer's option, a cash payment) for each unit of any Product returned based on Buyer Standard Cost (as defined below) per unit, plus the accepted factors from the Joint Industry Report (JIR) for handling returns. These accepted factors include:
• | Direct Product Cost ("DPC"): [***] |
• | Post Damage Handling ("PDH"): [***] |
• | Operations Through Scan ("OTS"): [***] |
• | Disposition Cost (as selected below) |
Please indicate the method of disposition and corresponding Disposition Cost for the Products by placing an "X" on the appropriate choice below (if no method of disposition is chosen by Seller within seven days following the notification to return Product, the COPT code will apply):
CODE | DESCRIPTION (DISPOSITION COST) | |
COPT | Scan and disposition left up to the discretion of Buyer ($0.020)* | |
DONA | Scan and Donate ($0.030) | |
DEST | Scan and DESTROY ($0.040)* | |
ROPT | Scan, Hold, Seller Review/Center Option ($0.127) | |
RDON | Scan, Hold, Seller Review, DONATE ($0.137) | |

SHBK | Scan and Ship back to Seller ($0.180)* Open RA# Required: ________ |
*NON-TOXIC/NON-HAZARDOUS MATERIAL ONLY
Handling of hazardous materials (as determined by Buyer) will require Seller to supply material safety data sheets ("MSDS") before a Product is returned. Fees for hazardous materials will be in addition to the above costs. Failure to provide MSDS may result in additional charges and possible fines, which Seller shall pay in full and as to which Seller shall fully indemnify Buyer.
With regard to Product located in Buyer stores in Alaska, Hawaii, and/or Puerto Rico, in addition to the Disposition Costs set forth above, at Seller's option, Buyer will either destroy, at Seller's expense, all Product at the store level or bill Seller for all shipping charges associated with sending Product to the Reclamation Center. Buyer will provide an estimate of the shipping charges associated with returning the Products to the Reclamation Center, but Buyer's recovery for shipping charges shall not be limited to such estimate but shall be based on Buyer's actual cost.
10
Buyer may increase any costs set forth in this Agreement 30 days after written notification of such increase is sent to Seller by Buyer.
Buyer's unit count and dollar value determinations so made shall govern unless proved to be in error by Seller as determined by Buyer.
With regard to Products that are recalled, all recalled Products shall be returned to Seller via the SHBK Code (i.e., scanned and shipped back to Seller) regardless of whether Seller has chosen a different method of disposition. An open RA# number must be established with Buyer's purchasing department prior to the initiation of a recall. Pallets shipped with recalled Products will be billed to Seller at the cost of $6.50 per pallet. Itemized pallet charges will also appear on a future invoice.
All shipments of Product (i.e., those from Buyer stores to the Reclamation Center as well as from the Reclamation Center to Seller) shall be prepaid by Buyer to be reimbursed by Seller as set forth in this Agreement. Title and risk of loss to any Products shall revert to Seller once the Products are removed from Buyer's stores or warehouse for delivery to the Reclamation Center.
