non-complying NCC and the parties shall agree a price adjustment for such
non-complying NCC.






	 	(b)	 	If Fullcircle supplies NCC to WML which does not comply with the
Specifications due to moisture levels, WML shall promptly notify Fullcircle of the
issue. WML shall retain the non-complying NCC and the parties shall agree a price

2

matters pertaining to this Agreement. Fullcircle will monitor and report on
Fullcircle’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement against the
Specifications at the quarterly reviews.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Failure to meet Specifications: Where Fullcircle does not meet a
Specification in accordance with Appendix 1, the parties’ respective nominated
representatives will promptly meet to discuss the reasons why the Specification was
not met. The representatives must then use their reasonable endeavours to develop and
agree within 7 days a plan to rectify the error and identify what can be done by
Fullcircle and WML to ensure the Specification is met in the future.






	4.	 	ORDERS
	 
	4.1.	 	Forecasts
	 
	 	 	WML will provide Fullcircle an annual month-by-month forecast of its requirements for NCC
for each calendar year no later than 30 September of each year of the Term.
	 
	4.2.	 	Orders
	 
	 	 	At least six weeks prior to the commencement of each calendar month of the Term, WML must
provide to Fullcircle a written binding order for the NCC. Unless otherwise agreed in
writing with WML, each written order must be for:






	 	(a)	 	not less than 90% of the forecasted volume for the relevant month; and
	 
	 	(b)	 	not more than 110% of the forecasted volume for the relevant month.






	4.3.	 	Orders In excess of forecasted volumes






	 	(a)	 	If WML provides a written binding order for NCC in excess of the forecasted
volume for the relevant month, Fullcircle must use its reasonable endeavours to
fulfill the order above the forecasted volume, Fullcircle will advise WML as soon as
reasonably practicable if it is unable to fulfill any portion of the ordered volume
over the forecasted volume.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Fullcircle agrees that WML will not be unequally discriminated against in
relation to Fullcircle’s other customers, in the allocation of any supply of NCC.






	5.	 	PRICE AND DELIVERY
	 
	5.1.	 	Price
	 
	 	 	WML will pay Fullcircle the price, expressed in metric tonnes, (Price) for NCC supplied (as
recorded on a certified weighbridge). The initial Price for NCC is $227.18 per tonne
(excluding GST) ex Fullcircle store.
	 
	 	 	Subject to clause 5.2, during the first month of each Quarter period from the Commencement
Date (except the first Quarter period), Fullcircle will review the price of NCC in
conjunction with WML and the prices will be adjusted in accordance with the Pricing Model,
as reviewed from time to time in accordance with clause 5.2. Once finalised, Fullcircle
will provide the new Price to WML prior to the end of the first month of the Quarter period
and the new Price will apply retrospectively from the commencement of that Quarter period.
	 
	5.2.	 	Review of Pricing Model




3









 












	 	(a)	 	Either party may notify the other at least three months prior to the end of each
12 month period from the Commencement Date that the notifying party requires a review
of the Pricing Model, such review to determine whether the existing Pricing Model
still reflects the agreed underlying pricing principle, being that the Price for NCC
should reflect the price then available to WML in the open market to purchase the
volumes provided in this Agreement if this Agreement did not exist (Pricing
Principle). 
	 
	 	(b)	 	Upon receipt of notice under clause 5.2(a), the parties will consult to
determine if the Pricing Model still reflects the Pricing Principle. If the parties
determine that the Pricing Model no longer reflects the Pricing Principle, the parties
will negotiate to determine a new pricing methodology model which does reflect the
Pricing Principle. Once agreed, such new pricing model methodology will be deemed to
be the Pricing Model.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Where a party has given notice under clause 5.2(a), the Price may not be
reviewed until such time as the Pricing Model is agreed.






	5.3.	 	Pricing Disputes
	 
	 	 	If the parties are unable to agree either the new Price or the Pricing Model within four
weeks of the date on which either is reviewed (for whatever reason), the matter will be
referred to an independent expert for determination in accordance with clause 5.4
(Independent Expert). The parties will provide the Independent Expert with such information
as may be reasonably requested. The Independent Expert must determine the new Price or the
Pricing Model, as the case may be, within 14 days following appointment. The determination
of the Independent Expert will be final and binding on the parties, save for manifest
error, and the new Price or the Pricing Model will apply as follows:






	 	(a)	 	in the case of the new Price, the new Price will be backdated to the
commencement of the relevant Quarter period; and
	 
	 	(b)	 	in the case of the Pricing Model, the new Pricing Model will apply from the
commencement of the relevant 12 month period.






	 	 	On resolution of any dispute related to Price or Pricing Model, the parties will promptly
pay or credit, as appropriate, to account for any backdated changes to the Price or Pricing
Model.
	 
	5.4.	 	Appointment of Independent Expert
	 
	 	 	The Independent Expert will be appointed in accordance with the following provisions:






	 	(a)	 	the Independent Expert will be appointed by both parties or, where the
parties cannot agree within 14 days, appointed by:






	 	(i)	 	in relation to disputes regarding pricing, the chairperson of the
Auckland branch of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of New
Zealand; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	in relation to all other disputes, the President of the New Zealand Law
Society;




4









 












	 	(b)	 	the Independent Expert will act as an expert and not as an arbitrator and
the law relating to arbitration will not apply to the Independent Expert’s
determination; and
	 
	 	(c)	 	the costs and expenses of the Independent Expert will be shared by the
parties equally.






	5.5.	 	Delivery method and time
	 
	 	 	Fullcircle will make NCC ordered by WML available for pick up
(in accordance with the
timing in the Sales and Operating Plan agreed between the parties) at CHH Case’s Auckland
site on Mahunga Dr, Mangere, or such other Auckland site as the parties shall agree from
time to time. WML will bear its own cost of transporting NCC from the above site to WML’s
premises. At WML’s request, Fullcircle will arrange for DDP (Incoterms 2000) delivery of
NCC to WML’s warehouse in Whakatane, in which case any freight costs shall be reflected in
the relevant invoice to WML’s account.
	 
	6.	 	PAYMENT TERMS
	 
	6.1.	 	Supply on General Terms of Sale
	 
	 	 	The General Terms of Sale attached as Appendix 2 will apply to the sale of NCC by
Fullcircle. To the extent that there is any inconsistency between the terms of this
Agreement and the General Terms of Sale attached as Appendix 2, the terms of this Agreement
will apply,

	 	 	WML must pay for all NCC ordered and invoiced by Fullcircle no later than the last day of

	 	(a)	 	the dispute must initially be referred to the parties’ respective nominated
representatives who are responsible for the management of this Agreement;

dispute; and
	 
	 	(c)	 	if the parties’ representatives are unable to resolve the dispute within 30
