Manufacturer hereby appoints Dealer as a non-exclusive dealer and installer of the entire line of products and related accessories manufactured and sold by the Manufacturer under the trade name "SOLATUBE" ("Products") in the Territory (defined below) for residential applications only.

d.    Dealer will not, either directly or indirectly, sell to any retail establishment or other party any Products for the purpose of resale unless Dealer obtains Manufacturer’s prior written approval.  Dealer may sell to builders and contractors (i.e. roofers, installers, etc.).

e.    This is not an exclusive Agreement.  Other dealers may be appointed to the Territory at the option of the Manufacturer.  Manufacturer may, at its sole option, advertise, market, or sell Products to any person or entity directly into the Territory.

Dealer must complete this training within three (3) months of commencement of this Agreement. Additionally, Dealer must complete other training in the future as requested by Manufacturer.

7.           Showroom.  Dealer will immediately establish, and continuously maintain during the term of this Agreement, a showroom for the Products.  The showroom will be located within the Territory.  Unless otherwise agreed to in a signed writing by Manufacturer, the showroom will be specifically located at the approved location set forth in Exhibit “C” attached hereto and incorporated herein.  Prior to relocating a showroom or sales facility to a specific location, Dealer will obtain Manufacturer’s written consent which may be unreasonably withheld, in Manufacturer’s sole discretion.  Without limiting the generality of the forgoing, Manufacturer agrees not to locate another Premier Dealer showroom within ___ miles of Dealer’s showroom.

Subject to credit approval by Manufacturer, Dealer will make payment for all orders within thirty (30) days of shipment of the order.  Manufacturer maintains the right to reject any sales order from Dealer should Dealer's credit history and/or credit limit warrant such rejection.

23.           Waiver.  The failure by either party at any time to require performance of the other party of any provision of this Agreement will in no way affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce the same provision, nor will the waiver by either party of any breach of any provision hereof be taken or held to be a waiver of any succeeding breach of such provision, or as a waiver of the provision itself.

Solatube and Dealer will each be referred to as a “Party” and collectively as, “Parties”.

WHEREAS, both Parties intend to disclose to each other proprietary/company-confidential information for the purpose of performing under the Premier Dealer Agreement entered into between the Parties on the Effective Date hereof.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual exchange of Information (defined below) and for other good and valuable consideration, the Parties agree as follows:

1.           Proprietary/company-confidential information (hereinafter referred to as “Information”) means any information, oral or written, that is not generally known outside of the disclosing Party including, but not limited to, information relating to the disclosing Party, its customers, suppliers and other persons or entities with whom the disclosing Party does business, its  products, designs, methods of manufacture or research; information relating to the disclosing Party's business operations such as its marketing plans, customer lists, pricing, and pricing methods, budgets, sales records, financial information, sales and promotions, distribution formulas, market analysis, as well as its personnel and organizational data; and information such as patents, copyrights, confidential information, documentation, materials, flow charts, systems procedures, manuals, codes, software, computer instructions, techniques, processes, confidential reports, models, diagrams, know-how, trade secrets, forms, specifications, data, and similar or related materials disclosed in connection with this Agreement.  Information may include proprietary information or data supplied by organizations or persons not a party to this Agreement, only to the extent that the disclosing Party has rights to disclose such information.  Where possible, each Party will identify any Information disclosed hereunder with an appropriate, conspicuous legend (such as “Proprietary” or “Company Confidential”).  When practical, non-tangible disclosures (i.e., discussions, briefings, etc.) identified as proprietary or company-confidential at the time of disclosure will be summarized in writing, identified with a legend as described above, and forwarded to the other Party within thirty (30) days of disclosure.  Each Party’s duty to protect such Information will commence from initial disclosure.

2.           The receiving Party will hold the disclosing Party’s Information in strict confidence and will use it only for the purpose of this Agreement.  The receiving Party will limit distribution of the disclosing Party’s Information only to those individuals within its organization who have a need to know such Information in connection with the purpose of this Agreement.  The receiving Party will not disclose any of the disclosing Party’s Information to any other person, organization, or corporation without the disclosing Party’s prior written approval.

  

10

  

 

3.           The receiving Party will protect the disclosing Party’s  Information in the same manner and with at least the same degree of care that the receiving Party uses to protect its own proprietary/company-confidential Information (but in no event with less than a reasonable degree of care), including causing any of its employees, agents, contractors and/or subcontractors who render services under or in connection with this Agreement to execute non-disclosure agreements adequately requiring them to keep the Information secret.  However, the receiving Party will not be required to keep confidential any Information which:

	
  

	
a)

	
is or becomes publicly available, other than through the fault or negligence of the receiving Party;

	
  

	
b)

	
was known to the receiving Party, without restriction, at the time of receipt;

	
  

	
c)

	
is rightfully and lawfully obtained by the receiving Party from a third party rightfully and lawfully possessing the same without restriction;

	
  

	
d)

e)

	
is obligated to be produced under an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, providing that the disclosing Party is immediately notified by the receiving Party;

	
  

	
f)

	
is disclosed in any event, after the expiration of five (5) years from the date such Information was delivered to the receiving Party.

4.           All Information obtained by the receiving Party hereunder, together with all copies made thereof, will remain the property of the disclosing Party and will be returned to the disclosing Party, or destroyed by the receiving Party promptly upon request by the disclosing Party.  Upon reasonable request, the receiving Party will promptly submit to the disclosing Party a certificate of destruction.

5.           Except as specifically provided for herein, the receiving Party will not make use of the disclosing Party’s Information for its own benefit or the benefit of any third party.  The receiving Party agrees to notify the disclosing Party as soon as possible if it becomes aware of any misappropriation, misuse, or disclosure of the disclosing Party’s Information by any of the receiving Party’s employees, officers, agents, contractors, or subcontractors.

6.           Neither the Information nor the act of disclosure thereof by the disclosing Party will constitute a grant of any license of any kind either under any trademark, patent or copyright, or application for same, or otherwise, nor will they constitute any representation, warranty, assurance, guarantee, or inducement by the disclosing Party with respect to the infringement of any trademark, patent, copyright, any right of privacy, or any right of third persons.

7.           This Agreement will be effective as of the Effective Date and will terminate two (2) years after termination of the Premier Dealer Agreement between the parties executed earlier this date and as hereinafter amended.
