Seller will make available at Rytec Corporation’s request a list of ingredients in the goods and shall promptly notify Rytec Corporation of any changes in the ingredients. 5. Cancellation: Rytec Corporation reserves the right to cancel this order or to refuse to accept delivery if shipment is made later than the date specified.

Material Furnished by Rytec Corporation: Any material furnished by Rytec Corporation on other than a charge basis in connection with the order, shall be deemed as held by Seller upon consignment. All such material not used in the manufacture of the goods covered by an order, shall be returned to Rytec Corporation at Rytec Corporation’s expense, and if not returned or accounted for, payment therefore shall be made by Seller. 9. Remedies: The remedies set forth herein shall be cumulative and additional to any other remedies provided in law or equity.

Confidential Information: Without Rytec Corporation’s prior written permission, Seller shall not disclose to any third party the fact that Seller has furnished or agreed to furnish the goods covered by a purchase order or any of the details of the order.

Any action resulting from any breach on the part of Rytec Corporation as to goods delivered must be commenced within one year after the cause of action has accrued. 14. Packing and Shipping: All goods must be packaged in the manner specified by Rytec Corporation and shipped in the manner and by the route designated by Rytec Corporation. If Rytec Corporation does not specify the manner of packaging and shipping, Seller shall package the goods in accordance with good commercial practices and ship at the lowest rates. Any additional costs incurred as a result of Seller’s failure to observe the above conditions will be for Seller’s account. If the goods are not accompanied by a packing slip, Rytec Corporation’s count or weight shall be conclusive. 15. Invoice and Payment: A separate invoice shall be issued for each shipment. Unless otherwise specified in the purchase order, no invoice shall be issued prior to shipment of goods and no payment will be made prior to receipt of goods and a correct invoice. Payment due dates, including discount periods, will be computed from the date of receipt of goods or date of receipt of correct invoice, whichever is later, to the date Rytec Corporation’s check is mailed or payment is made. 16. Relationship of Parties: Rytec Corporation and Seller are independent contractors. Nothing in the purchase order shall be deemed to create a partnership.
