WHEREAS FGI is engaged in the worldwide sales, marketing and distribution of Products;

WHEREAS FWW desires to sell its Products to FGI and FGI desires to purchase such Products from FWW in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement;

WHEREAS both Parties agree that payment for Products under this Agreement will override and negate any obligations for FGI to pay FWW per terms of a Global Sourcing and Purchase Agreement, executed on the 14th day of January 2022, between FGI and FWW (“Sourcing Agreement”) and that payment for products not covered by this Agreement will continue to abide by the terms of the Sourcing Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:

| 1. | Orders

| 1.1 | Orders for Products (“Product Orders”) shall be binding once these have been placed by FGI and confirmed by FWW.
| 1.2 | Product Orders can only originate from the manufacturers as stipulated in the Appendix attached herein.
| 1.3 | Product Orders should only be passed on to subcontractors with the approval of FGI. In such an event FWW shall be liable for the deliveries of its subcontractors in the same manner as if the deliveries were made by itself. FWW shall also be liable for adherence to the provisions of Section 4 - 6.

| 2. | Prices and Payment Terms

| 2.1 | The prices for Products sold by FWW to FGI are based on an agreed mark-up percentage over and above the “free on board” sales in USD (“FOB Sales”) that FWW provides to FGI (hereinafter referred to as a “Mark-Up” as detailed in the Appendix).
| 2.2 | FOB Sales is defined as the quantity sold by each manufacturer in the Appendix to FWW at the accepted order price, including charges for freight, shipping, taxes, insurance, and minus the application of any prompt payment discounts, other discounts, returns, cost of display, store set up, return freight, and other allowances or bad debts.
| 2.3 | In instances where the Mark-Up may not be appropriate, FGI and FWW may negotiate mutually-acceptable terms.
| 2.4 | The payment of the invoices by FGI shall be performed within the payment term(s) specified in the Product Orders or as agreed to between the respective parties. Other terms and conditions of payment, in particular down payments and advance payments, shall be subject to express written agreement.

| 3. | Delivery

| 3.1 | The agreed delivery deadlines of FWW Products to FGI shall be binding. Should FWW anticipate that delivery within the set deadline is not possible, FWW must notify FGI of the situation without delay, specifying the reasons and the likely duration of the delay (hereinafter referred to as “Notification”).
| 3.2 | FGI shall be entitled to respond to the Notification by withdrawing from the individual order and reserving the rights to claim damages in the event that the delay is not caused by FGI. Should FGI not respond to the Notification made by FWW, such silence shall not be taken as implicit approval of the postponement of the delivery deadline and/or the waiving of the rights specified under Section 3.2. Should FWW fail to adhere to the agreed delivery deadlines, FGI shall be entitled either to refuse the delayed delivery or to insist upon the delivery being made.
| 3.3 | Partial or advance deliveries as well as over or under deliveries shall only be permitted with the express approval of FGI. The deliveries must be performed in the packaging and format required by FGI.

| 4.2 | FGI shall generally examine the delivered Products within fourteen (14) days of the delivery (“Inspection Period”) in order to ascertain that Products conform to the expectations of the Product Order. In the event of there being a public holiday, this deadline shall be extended accordingly. Should FGI ascertain defects to the delivered Products (“Defective Products”) during the Inspection Period, FGI shall notify FWW of such fact without delay and shall assert such rights as it is entitled to under this Section. In the case of deliveries made direct to its customers, FGI shall be entitled to cause these checks to be performed prior to dispatch or to delegate these to the customers concerned.

| 4.3 | In the event of there being Defective Products, and the quantity of the Defective Products is more than the percentage of defective allowance granted by FWW to FGI, FGI shall be entitled to, within a reasonable amount of time (such time to be determined by both parties and to be referred to as a “Cure Period”):

| A) | request that such Defective Products be replaced by goods of contractual quality within a Cure Period;
| B) | request that the defects be rectified within a Cure Period; or
| C) | demand that the original Product Order be cancelled should FWW be unable to rectify the defects within a Cure Period.

| 4.4 | Should FWW fail to render the performances specified under Section 4.3 subsection A or B, FGI shall be entitled, at the expense of FWW, to procure replacement goods from a third-party source or to cause the defects to be rectified by itself or a third party.
| 4.5 | In all the cases mentioned under Section 4.3 the right to enforce claims for damages shall remain reserved by FGI.
