SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The text of

Dated: January 31, 2011. 

Todd A. Stevenson, 

Secretary. 

Settlement Agreement 

1. In accordance with 16 CFR 1118.20, 

Raynor Marketing, Ltd. and the staff 

(‘‘Staff’’) of the United States Consumer 

Product Safety Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) hereby enter into this 

Settlement Agreement (‘‘Agreement’’) 

under the Consumer Product Safety Act 

(‘‘CPSA’’). The Agreement and the 

incorporated attached Order resolve the 

Staff’s allegations set forth below. 

The Parties 

2. The Staff is the staff of the 

Consumer Product Safety Commission, 

an independent Federal regulatory 

agency established pursuant to, and 

responsible for the enforcement of, the 

CPSA, 15 U.S.C. 2051–2089. 

3. Raynor Marketing, Ltd. (‘‘Raynor’’) 

is a corporation organized and existing 

under the laws of the State of New York, 

with its principal corporate office 

located in West Hempstead, New York. 

Staff Allegations 

4. Between May 2006 and March 

2009, Raynor imported and distributed 

approximately one hundred fifty 

thousand (150,000) of the subject office 

chairs (the ‘‘Chairs’’) marketed under the 

brand names ‘‘Quantum Realspace 

PROTM 9000 Series Mid-Back 

Multifunction Mesh Chair’’ and 

‘‘Multifunction Mesh Chair with 

Headrest,’’ which were sold through 

Office Depot locations nationwide and 

on the Internet at http:// 

www.OfficeDepot.com for between 

$300.00 and $350.00. 

5. The Chairs are ‘‘consumer 

products’’ and, at all times relevant 

hereto, Raynor was a ‘‘manufacturer’’ of 

these consumer products, which were 

‘‘distributed in commerce,’’ as those 

terms are defined or used in sections 

3(a)(5), (8) and (11) of the CPSA, 15 

U.S.C. § 2052(a)(5), (8) and (11). 

6. The Chairs are defective because 

the bolts attaching the seatback to the 

base can loosen and detach, posing a fall 

and injury hazard to consumers. 

7. Raynor received its first report of an 

incident involving a broken Chair in 

December of 2007. 

8. By August of 2008, Raynor knew of 

approximately sixteen (16) reports of 

incidents involving bolts in the Chairs 

loosening and/or detaching, causing the 

seatback to come apart from the base. In 

at least four (4) of those incidents, the 

broken Chairs caused injury to 

consumers. 

9. Despite being aware of the 

information set forth in Paragraphs six 

through eight, Raynor did not report to 

the Commission until April of 2009. By 

that time, Raynor was aware of at least 

twenty-eight (28) reports of incidents 

involving Chairs with bolt failures, 

which caused substantial physical 

injuries to at least eight (8) consumers. 

The Chairs were recalled in October of 

2009.
