ARTICLE 8 / UNDERTAKINGS BY CDISCOUNT AND EASYDIS

3.1.    Description of IT flows

 

Flow 1: Supplier record

Cdiscount forwards each new supplier created corresponding to the Easydis warehouse.

 

Flow 2: Items

All the items created at Cdiscount corresponding to the Easydis warehouse are forwarded to Easydis in order that it has record of the product information (dimensions, weight, height, depth, M3), suppliers, and descriptions of the items that might appear on the purchase orders or on the picking slips.

 

Flow 3: Purchase orders

Cdiscount transfers to Easydis all of the purchase orders that have been validated by the buyer and which correspond to the Easydis warehouse.

The supplier makes an appointment with Easydis to receive the goods based on these purchase orders.

 

Flow 4: Receipt of purchase orders

Easydis transfers to Cdiscount the information related to the total or partial receipt of purchase orders.

Easydis must only accept the purchase orders that have been sent to it via flow 3 and which have not been cancelled (flow 9 V2).

Easydis must enter the quantity actually received.

 











 

Flow 5: Picking slips

Cdiscount transfers to Easydis the Picking Slips exclusively containing the items in stock at the Easydis warehouse.

 

Flow 6: Shipment notices

When Easydis has finished the preparation and shipment of the Picking Slips indicated in flow 5, it forwards the corresponding shipment notices to Cdiscount.

 

Flow 7: Changes of items

Easydis sends Cdiscount additional or corrective information concerning the items, such as barcode, width, length, etc., by email. Cdiscount sends back the file of item master records corrected by EDI.

 

Flow 8: Stock corrections

When Easydis rectifies the stock of an item, a sheet with the corrections made is sent by EDI to Cdiscount in order for it to update its stock.

 

Easydis has its own IT tool for tracking stock, called Gold Stock. This tool enables electronic management of stocks moved.

 

In this way, Cdiscount is in direct contact with Easydis and benefits from feedback in real time.

 

·                  Viewing of stocks (Gold Stock)

·                  Computerised management of stock

 

3.2 Item master record

 

On a daily basis, Cdiscount sends a file with the item master records. The item master record is sent only once to GOLD STOCK, except in the case of updating the features of products.

 

Cdiscount is responsible for maintaining the item master record and, as such, must modify the features of the items should they change. However, if Easydis observes that one of the fields of the product is incorrect (barcode, name of the product, the dimensions or the name of the supplier), Easydis shall email the designated contact person in order that said person may make the update via GNX.

 

Cdiscount shall confirm the modifications made by email reply.

 

The correction of an item master record must be made within 24 hours following the request.

 

3.3 Supplier purchase order

 

Cdiscount sends Gold Stock the supplier purchase orders to be accepted (supplier order number, products and quantities, deadline for acceptance, etc.).

 

The orders are sent by Cdiscount to Easydis in EDI before making an appointment.

 

4.              Scheduling an appointment / Planning and procedures for delivery of goods

 

The details of the procedures for scheduling an appointment for delivery by the supplier and the cases of conformity or non-conformity at the time of delivery are detailed in the supplier delivery specifications.

 

Easydis undertakes to employ the necessary human and material resources according to the receiving volumes requested by Cdiscount. Cdiscount reserves the right to vary the volumes with an advance notice period of at least one week, in agreement with Easydis. If this fluctuation leads to changing the working hours, the period will be extended to two weeks.

 











 

Acceptance

 

Acceptance must occur within 24 hours following unloading.

 

In the initial inspection, the goods must be inspected

 

·                  Qualitatively: visual inspection of the goods (e.g. no moisture, no damaged parcels)

·                  Quantitatively in relation to the consignment note (inspection of the number of units in relation to the consignment note)

·                  In case of discrepancy, any reservations must be expressed in accordance with article L.13363 of the French Commercial Code

 

The goods must undergo a second inspection:

 

·                  Qualitatively: BARCODE / Reference / EC standard

·                  Quantitatively in relation to the Cdiscount purchase order and the delivery slip, check of quantities in relation to the consignment note

·                  A complaint must be filed:

 

·                  If the product does not correspond to the product ordered

·                  If the quantity on the delivery slip = physical quantity

 

·                  If the quantity on the delivery slip > quantity on the purchase order, the quantity on the purchase order will be accepted and a claim must be filed to dispute the excess quantity.

 

·                  If the quantity on the delivery slip <> physical quantity

 

·                  If greater, acceptance of the physical quantity and a claim must be filed to dispute the quantity on the delivery slip

·                  If less, acceptance of the quantity corresponding to the delivery slip and a claim must be filed to dispute the excess quantity

 

The specific operations requiring re-packing and/or re-packaging are excluded from this invoice and will be subject to an estimate before carrying out these tasks, to be sent to Cdiscount’s contact persons.

 

In the event of any discrepancy, Cdiscount’s contact persons must be informed in order to make any decision with the aim of limiting complaints.

 

Quality control committees will be organised and will meet regularly at the different entities in order to improve the supplier’s packing and deliveries.

 

5.              Supply of consumables

 

Managing consumables is the responsibility of the staff at Easydis — Andrézieux. The costs inherent to securing packages on pallets are included in the price established for the service.

 

Specific operations requiring re-packing and/or re-packaging are not included in this invoicing and shall be subject to an estimate before carrying out such tasks.

 

6.              Storage

 

At its warehouse in Andrézieux les Sources, Easydis stores products offered for sale by Cdiscount, whose weight exceeds 30 kg.

 

Staff members at Easydis accept the products, store them, prepare the orders according to the instruction sheets sent by Cdiscount and then ship the products.

 

The staff members record the entry and exit movements of the products using the company’s Gold Stock software. A record of these movements is sent via EDI to Cdiscount.

 

Depending on the quantities received, the products are stored by references, in bulk or on racks.

 









 

The products stored in bulk are bundled in compliance with the manufacturers’ rules, indicated on the packages of the products (maximum number of items bundled).

 

The products stored on racks are put on pallets beforehand.

 

Each product reference is recorded in the Gold Stock system, listing a specific “address” at the warehouse (only one reference per address; however, depending on the quantities, a reference may consist of several “addresses”).

 

The optimisation of stock, location, satellite/ principal distribution and the storage rules are defined and discussed by both parties.

 

7.              Preparation of customer purchase orders

 

Each day, Cdiscount sends electronic files containing the customer orders to be prepared.

 

If a customer order consists of several products and one of the products is missing, Easydis then ships the product in stock. Cdiscount determines whether or not to generate a new picking list for the product not shipped.

 

7.1.    Labelling

 

After sending the electronic file, Easydis prints out the shipping labels (one label per parcel). These labels indicate (see Appendix 1: example of label):

 

·                  The customer’s contact information (full name and address of the customer)

·                  Order number (Cdiscount picking list)

·                  Gold Stock pre-assigned lot number

 

The physical picking of the parcels is done according to the instructions provided on the shipping labels or orally, depending on how Easydis organises the warehouse. Easydis will affix the labels onto the parcels.

 

7.2.    Cancellation of a customer purchase order

 

A customer order can be cancelled for a variety of reasons:

 

·                  Cancellation due to personal convenience

·                  Wait time too long due to partially, generally or temporarily running out of stock

 

Cancellation of a customer purchase order automatically results in cancellation of the sale between the customer and Cdiscount.

 

Easydis will receive a list of the cancelled orders from Cdiscount’s customer service department and therefore those orders will not be prepared.

 

In response, Easydis will acknowledge receipt of the request and validate the cancellation of the order.

 

Cancelling an order is only possible prior to preparation. If a product is already in the process of being prepared, the order cannot be cancelled.

 

A specific procedure will be set up in order to handle cancellations following a call made to the call centre to schedule an appointment via “C’est Chez Vous”.

 











 

7.3.    Shipment of the order

 

The products identified using preparation labels are grouped by SI GOLD on pallets at destination points for pick-ups and/or deliveries. These pallets are secured using a safety band (sellotape) and film wrap when necessary.

 

The pallets must not exceed 2 metres in height, except in the case of individual products having larger dimensions.

 

Easydis undertakes to limit the remaining products at the platform and to provide the items to Cdiscount when it has them. The rules for grouping orders on the same support or load are defined by Cdiscount in accordance with the delivery points.

 

8.              Management of stock

 

8.1.    Inventory

 

Easydis then conducts a physical inventory of the products present at the HUB by carrying out two physical cross-checks for each reference.

 

Cdiscount will then replenish its stock according to the discrepancies observed.

 

Easydis undertakes to perform regular inspections of stock at its own initiative or at the request of Cdiscount. In doing so, the objective is to carry out an inventory of all of the stock at least once every two months.

 

Stock corrections

 

Cdiscount may consult the stock corrections performed by Easydis by consulting the status of the stock corrections in Gold Stock or by consulting the file of stock corrections made available to Cdiscount everyday via EDI.

 

8.2.    Damaged items

 

Once the goods are accepted without any reported anomaly, all of the damaged items (e.g. due to breakage, loss, theft, missing items) observed at the Andrézieux les Sources site will be listed in order for Cdiscount to take them into account.

 

Easydis shall make the corresponding updates of stock, and begin monitoring these anomalies.

 

A percentage of breakage depending on the PUMP turnover and the number of items shipped will be monitored on a weekly basis in order for both parties to be able to implement actions to enable reducing breakage to a minimum; an objective will be established jointly by the parties as soon as possible.

 

A percentage of adjustment depending on the PUMP turnover and the number of items shipped will be monitored on a weekly basis in order for both of these parties to be able to implement actions to enable reducing the percentage of adjustment to a minimum; an objective will be established jointly by the parties as soon as possible.

 

A level of quality (BOA: error in references, in % of the turnover) net (including the analyses) will be monitored on a weekly basis in order for both of these parties to be able to implement actions so as to reduce the level of quality to a minimum; an objective will be established jointly by the parties as soon as possible.

 











 

9.              Management of returns

 

9.1.    Identification of return flows

 

Parcels returned from the meeting points or the departure points are identified using a listing (CCV: Excel file, Launched: via Nodisoft).

 

A product will be considered as damaged if the product and/or its packaging have been ruined. Damaged and undamaged products can be received in the same vehicles provided that they have been sorted beforehand and placed on different supports.

 

Non-damaged goods are reintegrated into the stock at the Easydis warehouse.

 

9.2.    Acceptance of return flows (non-damaged goods)

 

On receipt, returned products will be subject to an inspection of their quantity and condition. Non-damaged goods will be reintegrated into the stock at the warehouse.

 

9.3.    Acceptance of return flows (damaged goods)

 

The damaged products will be subject to a quantitative inspection on receipt, but will not be included in the stock electronically. They will be stored in a specially reserved area until their scheduled shipment to the Cdiscount platform.

 

9.4.    Transfer of damaged items

 

Damaged items will be systematically shipped to the Cdiscount site.

 

The procedure for handling returns will be reviewed and will be subject to its own specifications, which will be drafted in an addendum to this agreement in order to limit financial losses and expedite the flow of returns both for Cdiscount and the Andrézieux site and service providers.

 

10.       Operational data to be sent

 

The parties agree to establish daily indicators in order to monitor the activity and give themselves until the end of March 2013 in order to establish the format and content.

1.              PREAMBLE

 

The measures established enable better coordination between suppliers / freight forwarders and warehouse and optimisation of the delivery, receipt and storage operations.

 

The purpose of these specifications is to lay out the rules and mode of operation for the delivery of Home/ Leisure/ Multimedia products.

 

Depending on the type of product, the supplier may be required to deliver to several logistics sites, including transit sites whose addresses will be provided at the time of making the appointment and/or are found on the purchase order. It is essential to respect the delivery address for these products. Where required, Easydis reserves the right to reroute a truck at the time of its appointment.

 

The supplier must deliver the order on the date requested and in compliance with these specifications. The freight forwarder must show up on the scheduled date and time of the appointment with the documents corresponding to the delivery and the purchase order number on hand.

 

Upon arrival at the delivery sites, the driver in charge of the delivery is required to sign the safety protocol that will be presented to him. He must also wear personal protection equipment (safety boots and fluorescent vest). Any non-compliance may result in the entire truck being rejected.

 

Parking on the premises of the warehouse is prohibited between 21:00 and 05:00. The freight forwarder must take the necessary measures to comply with this rule. The warehouse is also closed between Friday 21:00 and Monday 05:00.

 

All of the logistics documents (e.g. delivery slip, bill of transport) must be written in French. However, documents written in English may also be accepted.

 

Considering the value of the goods, the supplier undertakes to exercise (or have its freight forwarder exercise) all necessary precautions to ensure the security of the method of transport.

 

The goods must have already cleared customs before arriving at the warehouse (except for EMC cases)

 

2.              SCHEDULING AN APPOINTMENT

 

The receiving hours at the warehouse are from Monday to Friday, from 06:00 to 16:30.

 

However, depending on the type of merchandise delivered, it may not be possible to schedule pick-ups in the afternoon. This information will be provided when making an appointment.

 

The supplier must deliver the order on the date requested, in accordance with the Cdiscount Supply Terms and Conditions and in compliance with these specifications.

 

3











 

The supplier (or its freight forwarder) is required to schedule an appointment prior to any delivery. Deliveries made without an appointment will be rejected. The contact information for scheduling an appointment is provided below. Requests to schedule an appointment must be made by email.

 

Easydis les Sources

ZAC de l’Orme

P.O. Box 20077

42162 Andrézieux Bouthéon

Email: jzambelli@groupe-casino.fr

 

The appointment must be requested as soon as possible and no later than 15 days before the delivery date mentioned on the purchase order. The appointment will then be set according to the availability on the schedule concerned.

 

Notification of any change in appointment or impossibility of making a delivery must be given at least 48 hours in advance to the email address indicated for scheduling appointments (except for an incident/ traffic accident, which will be treated on a case-by-case basis).

 

A truck must be assigned to a single order; that is, an order must not be delivered on several trucks. In the case of an anomaly, it is necessary to contact Cdiscount’s supplier to make any changes.

 

The following information is mandatory for scheduling an appointment:

 

·                  The supplier’s or the freight forwarder’s contact information (telephone, fax, email)

·                  All of the order numbers to be delivered

·                  The type of delivery (palletised, bulk)

·                  The container number, if known

·                  The total number of pallets actually delivered (stacked or on the ground) or parcels for bulk deliveries

·                  The date stipulated on the order (provided by the supplier) and desired delivery date

·                  The type and reference number of the products (enabling these products to be routed)

·                  Any possible comments (e.g. palletisation 100x120, catalogue)

 

The appointment given will never be prior to the delivery date requested by the supply house, unless specifically requested by the latter.

 

In several purchase orders are delivered for which only some have an appointment scheduled:

 

·                  Purchase orders without an appointment will be rejected.

·                  Failure to distinguish between purchase orders with an appointment and those without an appointment will result in the entire order being rejected.

 

Beyond one hour of delay, the delivery will be accepted or rejected according to the availability at the warehouse. Whatever the problem, the supplier must warn the supply house.

 

In the event of delays, the supplier may be subject to penalties beyond any commercial negotiation in accordance with the CDiscount Supply Chain Conditions.

3.              DELIVERY SLIP

 

All deliveries must be accompanied by one or more Delivery Slips corresponding to the goods delivered.

 

Any purchase order delivered without a delivery slip or with other documents (i.e. packing list) will be rejected.

 

·                  A Delivery Slip is not a Shipping Voucher, nor an invoice or a purchase order. Submitting a purchase order instead of a Delivery Slip is prohibited.

·                  Any order delivered with a Delivery Slip having been subject to handwritten changes shall be rejected or be subject to Reservations.

·                  In accordance with the laws in force, the goods must also be accompanied by a consignment note.

·                  During the delivery, before opening the trailer/container, the driver must present to the guard station the Delivery Slips as well as the consignment note. The Delivery Note must not be affixed to a pallet or inserted in a parcel. The supplier shall, however, provide the documents to the Cdiscount suppliers, should they be requested.

·                  Special case of containers: In order to avoid any difficulties on receipt, in the case of containers, it is preferable to put a photocopy of the Delivery Slip on the first parcel (on the doors) of the container.

 

A single reference must be delivered in the same manner on all sites and in accordance with the master item record provided beforehand by the purchaser.

 

If a vehicle shows up without a delivery slip, it must wait at the parking lot PL for an unspecified amount of time until the documents are received either by email or fax. Consequently, it will not be able to be unloaded and will have to schedule another appointment.

 

The following information must be indicated on the Delivery Slip:

 

·                  Cdiscount internal order number

·                  Name and address of the supplier

·                  Supplier and/or Cdiscount internal item reference numbers (SKU)

·                  Quantities ordered and delivered per reference

·                  Barcode of the reference

·                  Number of handling units (number of pallets and/or parcels)

 

The information supplied to Cdiscount on the databases for referencing of items must be rigorously respected. Any discrepancies observed between information submitted and delivery may result in rejection of goods or in the supplier being re-invoiced for a service.

 

In the case of a palletised reception:

 

The information to be provided is as follows:

 

·                  Supplier parcel with EAN code (1 reference = 1 unique EAN code)

·                  Number of layers

·                  Number of parcels or items on a pallet

·                  Dimensions of the parcels

·                  Weight

 

In the case of a bulk reception:

 

The information to be provided is as follows:

 

·                  Supplier parcel with EAN code (1 reference = 1 unique EAN code)

·                  Number of layers in the container

·                  Dimensions of the parcels

·                  Weight

4.              TYPES OF DELIVERY

 

4.1.    Palletised Delivery

 

The pallet must not be broken, and must be tightly wrapped in film (including goods and mount) in order to guarantee the stability of the products when the film is removed. It must also be wrapped with a safety band in order to ensure the integrity of the goods delivered.

 

Pallet characteristics:

 

·                  Must be at European standards 80x120 (EUR, CHEP, etc.), insofar as it is possible: any request for different palletisation (100x120, plastic, without value, etc.) is subject to prior approval by the Department for Coordinating Flows.

 

6











 

·                  Must be adapted to the product in terms of size (The products should not be able to be damaged if they extend excessively beyond the wooden support).

·                  Must not exceed 1.80 m, including the mount:

·                  Any delivery of pallets between 1.80 m and 2.40 m will be subject to rejection or, in the case of approval by Easydis, an estimate for repalletisation at the supplier’s expense 

·                  Deliveries on pallets larger than 2.40 m will be systematically rejected.

·                  Must be fireproof.

 

The following information must be indicated on the pallets:

 

·                  Address of the warehouse

·                  Name of the supplier

·                  Corresponding Cdiscount purchase order number

·                  Progressive pallets

 

The pallets must be hold a single reference when the volumetry so allows. Using multiple references is allowed only if:

 

·                  The references are grouped together on the same pallet

·                  A same reference is not found duplicated on several supports

 

Non-conformities in the palletisation may result in the goods being rejected or in the supplier being re-invoiced for a service.

 

Palletised deliveries of parcels presenting sub-parcels A + B must have been processed in order that A and B are bound together (e.g. sellotape, film, strap). If that is not the case, the loading will be similar to a bulk delivery and may be rejected.

 

4.2 Bulk Deliveries

 

Rules for filling bulk containers and trucks:

 

·                  Load reference by reference; do not mix the parcels.

·                  Leave space between the last layer and the roof in order to be able to grab the parcels (At least 10 cm).

·                  Respect the pictogram of the parcels.

·                  Do not load flat parcels on the ground in order to prevent such parcels from bursting open.

·                  Even out the loading.

·                  Bind the goods down if the load is not full.

·                  Cushion the end of the container to prevent objects from falling when opening the container.

·                  No trailers covered with a tarpaulin to guarantee complete parcels

·                  Make sure the container air holes are not blocked.

·                  Bind large and heavy products down in order to avoid any risk of accidents when opening the doors of the container or of the truck during unloading, in the case of a full container.

 

GEM tv deliveries > 51 cm

 

It is essential to follow the loading plan:

 

·                  The goods must be loaded by reference.

 

7











 

·                  A useable space of 5 cm must be left on each side in order to enable the vehicle to be unloaded from the back and by “clamp”. This margin must be secured by detachable cushioning devices (air-bag in non-excessive quantities).

·                  Respect the direction of the pictograms of the parcels.

·                  Delivering layered parcels is prohibited.

·                  If necessary, the parcels must be tied up.

·                  Respect the direction of the clamping (the product must be able to be clamped by accessing the back doors of the truck).

 

GEM/ TV products must not be delivered in a gooseneck truck (with a taller platform than the cabin of the truck) because unloading with a pincher carriage is impossible.

 

In the case of a bulk container or truck with a multi-parcel reference, the loading must be carried out in order that it is possible to put all of A+B back together immediately. Consequently, the loading must alternate the products A and B, or even C.

 

E.g.: parcel A to the right and parcel B to the left

 

The truck must be tall enough to be able to fit on the platform (without a machine or wedges) and in such a way that unloading is possible with the classic handling frontal type pincher carriage equipment for the household appliances (condition of the bed of the truck).

 

The loading plan must respect unloading constraints: heavy parcels must be placed at the front of the trailer and light parcels at the back in order to avoid instability, thus making it difficult or impossible to unload.

 

If a packing band is used, it is essential to use a plastic one and not a metal one (to avoid the risk of injury).

 

5.              PACKING OF PARCELS

 

The packing of parcels must ensure that the product is not damaged until delivery to the end client by withstanding the necessary handling during logistics and transport.

 

It is essential that the packing and dimensions be identical to those indicated on the Cdiscount product sheet.

 

The parcels must be intact (not wet or torn, etc.).

 

The packing must be arranged so that the goods are maintained correctly.

 

The packing must be adapted to the weight and size of the product in order to be make it possible to follow the pictogram and the manufacturer’s recommendations, allowing reloading during freight forwarding, storage and handling until delivery to the end customer.

 

For the household appliances the wooden battens that strengthen the package must not exceed the length of the product (polystyrene).

 

8











 

The parcels must be securely closed. The packaging of the same product must be identical throughout the life of the product.

 

The following logo must appear on the packages of the products received.

 

FURNITURE DELIVERIES (e.g. sofas, armchairs, living room furniture, outdoor furniture)

 

Each item must be protected by a cover before being placed in a double ribbed box with film wrap. A protection must be added to the backdrop in order to avoid rips or tears and to protect fragile products.

 

6.              IDENTIFICATION OF THE PARCELS

 

Each parcel must be identified by a parcel label.

 

The following information must be indicated:

 

·                  Logistics EAN in ITF form (DUN 14) or EAN 13

·                  The colour and/or vat number must be mentioned on the parcel

·                  Product labelling

·                  Weight

·                  Progressive (Parcels 1/2, 2/2... for multi-parcel references)

·                  Storage and/or handling pictogram (Unless directly present on the packaging)

 

The size of the label must be large enough to ensure the information is readable.

 

The parcel label must be affixed on one of the sides of each box or display in such a way that it is visible from outside of the pallet.

 

7.              QUANTITIES ORDERED

 

The supplier undertakes to deliver the quantities ordered in accordance with the order (in terms of quantity and reference) in one delivery, on the confirmed date of the appointment and in one truck, if possible.

 

If any item is missing, it will inform the supply house as soon as possible.

 

The deliveries of remaining amounts will be left up to the supply house and will require another appointment to be scheduled.

 

No excess quantity or product substitution will be accepted unless agreed to by the Cdiscount supply house.

 

8.              NON-CONFORMITIES ON RECEIPT

 

Any non-conformity on receipt in general will cause a delay and may create a disturbance at the supplier’s expense, or may lead to the goods being taken back.

 

Whatever the risk, the supplier must warn the supply house.

 

9











 

Cases of non-conformity are as follows:

 

·                  No. per outer not respected

·                  Switching of item

·                  Replacement item at the supplier’s initiative

·                  Incomplete parcel (or empty)

·                  Error on the label

·                  Colouring

·                  Composition of the no. per outer

·                  Non-compliance with the logistical data

·                  EAN not compliant with that expected

·                  Non-compliant, insufficient or non-existent packaging

·                  Technical files

·                  Damaged, soiled, ripped, broken or wet product

·                  Unsuitable or damaged load carrier

·                  Lack of support on a palletised delivery

·                  Pallet too high or unstable

·                  Impossible to unload with a clamp device

·                  Margins (on the side and between the roof and the product) non-existent

·                  Impossible to remove bulk parcels (Overfilling the container, moisture having made the parcels swell)

·                  Etc.

 

Non-compliant goods will be subject to:

 

·                  either the goods being immediately taken back

·                  or repair invoiced to the suppliers (incurring expenses, repair work)

 

The warehouse reserves the right to reject:

 

·                  Goods damaged during transport (e.g. load having moved during transport, victim of theft)

·                  Pallets without a safety band (or with a defective safety band)

(1) Breakdown of the surface area of the Andrézieux site. Sources: 70,202m2 of total area, of which 2,576m2 is office space and 1,386m2 is for technical facilities.

Dry storage thus represents 66,240 m2.

E.g. calculation of Qp in January 2013: (Area of dry storage occupied by Cdiscount) / (Total dry storage area) = 46,000m2 / 66,240m2 = 69.4%

This ratio is subject to fluctuate each month according to the area occupied by Cdiscount.

(2) The m2 occupied by Cdiscount are calculated as follows:

= [Area of dry storage occupied by Cdiscount] + Portion [Dry storage occupied by Cdiscount] X [Technical facilities]

E.g. in January 2013: 46,000 m2 + 69.4% X 1,386m2 = 46,962m2

The gross rent paid per m2 thus amounts to €38 for the year 2013. This amount will be indexed on the following years. The offices occupied by Cdiscount will be subject to invoicing in addition to the real amount.

 

[Initials]

 

As concerns invoicing, Easydis undertakes to provide the breakdown to Cdiscount in order to conduct a control (i.e. number of hours, invoice).

 

However, if certain expenses do not fall within the framework defined in the table above, the parties agree to meet to approach each other in order to reach mutual agreement on a rule for sharing expenses.

 

Any investment request or requirement must be validated by mutual agreement between EASYDIS and Cdiscount and will be subject to invoicing at the real amount.
