During the term of this Agreement, Hatteras shall not appoint other dealers to sell Product from a dealer location within the Territory set forth in Paragraph 2 so long as Dealer is in compliance with its material obligations and performance standards under this Agreement and Hatteras’ then current material policies and programs. Hatteras reserves the right to modify the Territory or appoint other dealers to sell, display and service Product from dealer locations within the Territory at any time if Hatteras determines, in its sole discretion, the Dealer is in breach of the material obligations and performance standards of this Agreement and Hatteras’ then current material policies and programs following notice and the expiration of any applicable cure periods without cure. Provided that similar restrictions apply to all domestic Hatteras dealers selling comparable Products, Dealer shall not sell, advertise, solicit for sale or offer for resale Products outside of the Territory, provided, however, that Dealer may advertise in recognized and established marine publications with cross-territorial distribution. However, Dealer agrees not to advertise price of Products in any electronic media, newspaper, trade publications or other publication or media that is cross territorial and/or distributed outside of the territory.

Hatteras shall have the right to adopt and modify policies and programs related to the Products from time to time in its sole discretion and in accordance with its own reasonable business judgment and it will enforce such policies and programs on a uniform basis. Dealer agrees to comply with such policies and programs, and understands that failure to comply with a material term shall give Hatteras, following the expiration of applicable cure periods without cure, the right to modify the Territory, appoint other dealers to locations within the Territory, and/or to terminate this Agreement.

Dealer cancellation of orders will be subject to Hatteras’ then current cancellation policy applicable to all domestic Hatteras dealers. All orders submitted by Dealer are subject to acceptance by Hatteras.

In the event of any delay in delivery, failure to fill orders or other default or damage caused by any of the foregoing, Hatteras may, at its option and without liability, cancel all or any portion of the applicable orders to the extent affected by the event of force majeure and/or extend any date upon which performance is due hereinunder.

7. Risk of Loss: Risk of loss for Products ordered by Dealer shall pass to Dealer at the time the Products or parts are tendered to the designated carrier at the Hatteras factory. Hatteras will arrange for insurance from the shipping point to the final delivery point. Dealer will be the loss payee on any claim. Hatteras will assist Dealer in the processing and collection of any claims against the carrier contracted by Hatteras.

8. Payment — Claims: All sales of Products to Dealer shall be paid for in advance by Dealer, unless otherwise agreed between Hatteras and Dealer.

9. Product Modification: Hatteras shall have the right to discontinue the sale of Products or to modify the design, specifications and components of Products at any time provided, however, that Hatteras shall notify Dealer, prior to shipment, of any major changes with respect to Products previously ordered by Dealer but not yet delivered, in which event Dealer shall have the right to terminate such order within five (5) business days after such notification by providing written notice to Hatteras. The failure to provide such timely written notification shall be deemed acceptance by Dealer of such changes.

B.

Entire Agreement — Non-Waiver: This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the matters set forth herein and may not be amended or modified except by a written instrument signed by Hatteras and Dealer that expressly states that the writing constitutes a rider or modification to this Agreement, provided that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Hatteras may in its sole discretion and from time to time make changes in accordance with its own reasonable business judgment to Dealer Programs, policies, programs and Hatteras’s Internet Policy applicable to all domestic Hatteras dealers upon the giving of notice to Dealer. This Agreement terminates and replaces all prior agreements made between the parties and there are no other agreements regarding the matters herein provided that each party shall remain obligated to the other for any monies owed under such prior agreements between the parties; and except for payments to be made to Dealer in the ordinary course of business or claims of third parties, there are no other monies, claims, or actions which may give rise to or result in any compensation or monies being owed to Dealer by Hatteras. Failure on the part of Hatteras or Dealer to enforce any term of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver thereof. The Dealer Programs and its content as well as the Hatteras Internet Policy is incorporated herein by reference.

21. Severability – Existing Claims: Whenever possible, each paragraph of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any portion of this Agreement is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remaining sections shall still be enforceable unless removal of that portion so materially alters the risks and benefits to either party that enforcement would be substantially unfair. In such a case, the parties agree to immediately negotiate a substitute clause to restore each party as closely as possible to the risks and benefits originally assumed. Dealer represents to Hatteras that it is not aware of any claims, causes of action, or disputes that it has or may assert against Hatteras that arise out of or have accrued prior to the effective date of this Agreement. Dealer further represents to Hatteras that it has not breached or otherwise violated any term or condition of any previous Agreement with Hatteras.

22. Disputes: All disputes, controversies or claims connected with, arising out of, or relating to this Agreement, or any modification, extension or renewal thereof, or to any causes of action that result from such relationship, shall be subject exclusively to the remedy of arbitration described herein, including but not limited to sums due under this Agreement, the interpretation, performance or nonperformance of this Agreement, and claim for damages or rescission, a breach of default of this Agreement, the creation, termination or nonrenewal of this Agreement (such as a dispute regarding the causes, validity or circumstances of the termination, nonextension, or nonrenewal), and trade regulations or antitrust claims, whether such controversies or claims are in law or equity or include claims based upon contract, statute, tort or otherwise. All controversies shall be conducted in accordance with the American Arbitration Association Commercial Arbitration Rules.

The arbitration shall be governed by the United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1-16, as amended, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof. The place of the arbitration shall be at Raleigh, North Carolina. Dealer consents to personal jurisdiction of such court, including the federal and state courts located in the State of North Carolina. The arbitrator is not empowered to and shall not award damages in excess of actual damages and in no event shall the arbitrator award punitive, special or consequential damages, or prejudgment interest.

This paragraph shall survive the expiration or termination of the Agreement.

Except for sums owing to Hatteras all arbitration claims and proceedings must be instituted within one (1) year after the cause of action arises, and the failure to institute arbitration proceedings within such period shall constitute an absolute ban to the institution of any proceedings and a waiver and relinquishment of all such claims.

23. Guarantee: As a condition for Hatteras’ entering into this Agreement, the parent of Dealer has signed this document as evidence of its irrevocable guarantee of the Dealer’s performance of all the financial duties and financial obligations provided for in this Agreement.

24. Reservation of Rights: Hatteras grants to Dealer only those rights expressly stated in this Agreement. Except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Hatteras retains all rights. This Agreement does not concern any other brands or products, except the Hatteras Products defined in Paragraph 1. Hatteras and/or its affiliates reserve the right to own, acquire, manage, sell, display or service other products and other brands in any area (including the Territory) including those that may compete with Products.

25. Confidentiality. Each party shall maintain as confidential all proprietary business information, trade secrets and all materials containing confidential business information provided by such party to the other party, including but not limited to customers, vendors, inventions, concepts, designs, structures, formulas, processes, financial information, employees, strategic plans, acquisition plans or other business affairs of the disclosing party. Dealer acknowledges that Hatteras is a division of Brunswick Corporation, and accordingly subsidiaries, affiliates and other divisions of Brunswick Corporation may be given access or have access to confidential business information received in connection with this Agreement, and such disclosure does not constitute a breach of this Paragraph. Each party, on behalf of its directors, officers, employees and agents to whom such information and materials are disclosed, agree that it shall keep such information and materials confidential both during and after the term of this Agreement for a period of three (3) years provided that if any such information or material is a trade secret, then the obligations under this Paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement for the longer of five (5) years or the length of time such information remains a trade secret.

These obligations of confidentiality do not apply to any information which (1) was known to the receiving party prior to receipt from the disclosing party; (2) is independently developed by the receiving party, provided that the burden of proof of such independent development shall be on the receiving party; (3) is or becomes publicly known without the fault of the receiving party; (4) is or becomes rightfully available to the receiving party without confidential restriction from a source not bound by a confidentiality obligation to the disclosing party; (5) is required by law to be disclosed or pursuant to court or government action provided, the disclosing party is given reasonable prior notice of such disclosure; or (6) is disclosed pursuant to agreement of the parties.

26. Miscellaneous: In case of any dispute relating to the rights and duties imposed by this Agreement, both parties will openly discuss and make reasonable efforts at amicable resolution. Except as expressly described to the contrary in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of each party are not exclusive. Unless otherwise provided, where either party has a right to make a determination or pursue or not pursue a particular course of action under the terms of this Agreement, such as, for example granting consent or approval, such determinations and decisions shall be made by such party in its sole discretion. As defined herein, a domestic Hatteras dealer shall be an authorized Hatteras dealer whose territory is located solely within the continental Unites States.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Hatteras and Dealer have executed this Agreement as of the date first above written.
