This Supply Chain Services Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated as of April 22, 2013 (the “Effective Date”), is entered into by and between The Scotts Company, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company having its principal place of business at 14111 Scottslawn Road, Marysville, Ohio 43041 (“Scotts Company”), and OMS Investments, Inc., a Delaware corporation having its principal place of business at 10250 Constellation Blvd., Ste. 2800, Los Angeles, CA 90067 (“OMS,” and together with Scotts Company, “Scotts”), and AeroGrow International, Inc., a Nevada corporation having its principal place of business at 6075 Longbow Dr. Suite 200, Boulder, Colorado 80301 (“AeroGrow”). Scotts and AeroGrow are referred to herein, together as the “Parties,” and each, a “Party.”
RECITALS:
A. AeroGrow wishes to provide to Scotts certain supply chain management services, as further described in and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
B. Scotts wishes to engage AeroGrow in connection with such services in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
C. Contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, AeroGrow and OMS are executing and delivering, among other agreements, a technology license agreement (the “Technology License Agreement”) and a brand license agreement (the “Brand License Agreement”).
AGREEMENT:
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Scotts and AeroGrow hereby agree as follows:
1. Services.
As Scotts may request from time to time during the term of this Agreement, AeroGrow will perform for Scotts the services set forth in the Scope of Services attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Services”). Nothing in this Agreement creates any obligation for Scotts to request or purchase any minimum amount of Services.
2. Compensation, Invoices and Payment.
(a) Fee. In payment of the Services performed (including any materials provided in connection therewith) pursuant to this Agreement, Scotts will pay AeroGrow an annual fee equal to seven percent of the cost of goods of all products that Scotts purchases from AeroGrow or a vendor in exploiting the Hydroponic IP outside the U.S. over the course of each Contract Year during the term of this Agreement (the "Fee").
(b) Reimbursable Expenses. Scotts will reimburse AeroGrow for any reasonable and competitively priced out-of-pocket expenses (with no mark-up) for travel, lodging and meals that are incurred by AeroGrow specifically and solely for the performance of the Services and that AeroGrow otherwise would not have incurred but for the performance of the Services (the "Reimbursable Expenses"), provided that AeroGrow complies with the Corporate Travel and Business Expense Reimbursement Policy attached hereto as Exhibit B. For purposes of clarity, Reimbursable Expenses shall not include any expense that AeroGrow incurs for or in connection with any other business purpose or AeroGrow customer.
(c) Full and Complete Compensation. The Fee and any Reimbursable Expenses constitute the full and complete compensation for AeroGrow's performance of the Services and includes compensation for all services, fees, labor, fringe benefits, insurance, profit, overhead and taxes (except sales and use taxes, if any) in connection with the Services. No compensation in addition to the Fee and Reimbursable Expenses will be payable by Scotts.
(a) Fee Report. Invoices and Payment. The Fee shall be payable annually for each Contract Year. No later than the April 30th following the end of each Contract Year, and the April 30th following expiration or termination of the Agreement for any reason, Scotts shall provide AeroGrow with a report, including (i) the cost of goods of all products that Scotts purchases from AeroGrow or a vendor in exploiting the Hydroponic IP outside the U.S. for such Contract Year, itemized according to each product and country, and (ii) all other information and calculations necessary to allow AeroGrow to verify the accuracy of the Fee calculation. Concurrently with providing each such report, Scotts shall pay AeroGrow the Fee for the recently concluded Contract Year (i.e., the Contract Year covered by such report). Within 15 days after the end of each calendar month, AeroGrow shall submit an invoice to Scotts requesting reimbursement of any Reimbursable Expenses incurred during such month. Each such invoice shall be accompanied by all required documentation necessary to support all charges. Scotts will pay all undisputed portions of properly documented invoices within 30 days after receipt. If Scotts disputes any portion of an invoice, Scotts will provide written notice to AeroGrow indicating the reason Scotts is withholding any amount, and will pay the undisputed portion of the invoice.
3. Term and Termination.
(a) Limited Term. Except as may be earlier terminated pursuant to Sections 3(b) and 3(c), the term of this Agreement will be coterminous with the term of the Technology License Agreement (as defined in the Recitals to this Agreement) and will automatically terminate upon the termination or expiration of the Technology License Agreement.
(b) Early Termination by Scotts. Scotts may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to AeroGrow under the following circumstances: (i) if AeroGrow defaults in the performance of any of its material obligations under, or breaches any of its warranties or covenants set forth in, this Agreement, and such default or breach shall continue and not be remedied for a period of 30 days after Scotts has given written notice to AeroGrow specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied; or (ii) if a Bankruptcy Event has occurred with respect to AeroGrow.
(c) Early Termination by AeroGrow. AeroGrow may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Scotts under the following circumstances: (i) if Scotts defaults in the performance of any of its material obligations under, or breaches any of its warranties or covenants set forth in, this Agreement and such default or breach shall continue and not be remedied for a period of 30 days after AeroGrow has given written notice to Scotts specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied; or (ii) if a Bankruptcy Event has occurred with respect to Scotts and Scotts has ceased to make payments due under this Agreement in accordance with its terms.
(d) Survival. Termination or expiration of this Agreement shall not operate to release the Parties from obligations that, by their nature or as expressly provided herein, survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement, including obligations of confidentiality, remedial obligations respecting warranties and promises of indemnity. No termination or expiration of this Agreement shall affect (i) any rights a Party may have with respect to any Services performed prior to the effective date of termination or expiration, (ii) any pending dispute, or (iii) any rights a Party may have with respect to any breach by the other Party of any provision of this Agreement prior to termination or expiration.

Each Party agrees that, during the term of this Agreement and for a period of six months thereafter, it shall keep confidential and shall not publish or otherwise disclose and shall not use for any purpose other than as provided for in this Agreement (which includes the exercise of any rights or the performance of any obligations hereunder) any Confidential Information furnished to it by the other Party pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement or otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties. The foregoing confidentiality and non-use obligations shall not apply to any portion of the other Party’s Confidential Information that the receiving Party can demonstrate by competent written proof: (i) was already known to the receiving Party or its Affiliate, other than under an obligation of confidentiality, at the time of disclosure by the other Party; (ii) was generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public domain at the time of its disclosure to the receiving Party; (iii) became generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public domain after its disclosure and other than through any act or omission of the receiving Party in breach of this Agreement; (iv) was disclosed to the receiving Party or its Affiliate on a non-confidential basis by a third party who has a legal right to make such disclosure and who did not obtain such information directly or indirectly from the other Party; or (v) was independently discovered or developed by the receiving Party or its Affiliate without access to or aid, application or use of the other Party’s Confidential Information, as evidenced by a contemporaneous writing.
(b) Authorized Disclosure. Notwithstanding the obligations set forth in Section 7(a), a Party may disclose the other Party’s Confidential Information [and the terms and existence of this Agreement] to the extent: (i) such disclosure is reasonably necessary for prosecuting or defending litigation as contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) such disclosure is reasonably necessary to its employees, agents, consultants, contractors, licensees or sublicensees on a need-to-know basis for the sole purpose of performing its obligations or exercising its rights under this Agreement; provided that in each case, the disclosees are bound by written obligations of confidentiality and non-use consistent with those contained in this Agreement; (iii) such disclosure is reasonably necessary to any bona fide potential or actual investor, acquiror, merger partner, licensee, sublicensee, or other financial or commercial partner for the sole purpose of evaluating an actual or potential investment, acquisition or other business relationship; provided that in connection with such disclosure, such Party shall use all reasonable efforts to inform each disclosee of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and, in each case, the disclosees are bound by written obligations of confidentiality and non-use consistent with those contained in this Agreement; or (iv) such disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with applicable laws, including regulations promulgated by applicable security exchanges, court order, administrative subpoena or order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Party is required to make a disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information pursuant to Section clause (iv) of this Section 7(b), such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of such required disclosure and shall use reasonable efforts to obtain, or to assist the other Party in obtaining, a protective order preventing or limiting the required disclosure.
8. Indemnity.
(a) Indemnification by AeroGrow. AeroGrow agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Scotts, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees (collectively, the “Scotts Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, allegations, suits, actions, proceedings, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses and fees, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, to the extent arising out of or relating to (i) the breach of any of AeroGrow’s covenants, representations or warranties under this Agreement, or (ii) the gross negligence, intentional misconduct or other wrongful acts or omissions of AeroGrow, its Affiliates or their respective officers, directors, agents, contractors or employees, in the performance of this Agreement.
(b) Indemnification by Scotts. Scotts agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend AeroGrow, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees (collectively, the "AeroGrow Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all claims, allegations, suits, actions, proceedings, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses and fees, including reasonable attorneys' fees, to the extent arising out of or relating to the breach of any of Scotts' covenants, representations or warranties under this Agreement.
(c) Procedure. If a Scotts Indemnified Party or an AeroGrow Indemnified (as applicable, the “Indemnified Party”) is seeking indemnification under Section 8(a) or 8(b), the Indemnified Party shall inform AeroGrow or Scotts, as applicable, of the claim giving rise to the obligation to indemnify pursuant to such Section as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving notice of the claim (provided, however, that any delay or failure to provide such notice shall not constitute a waiver or release of, or otherwise limit, the Indemnified Party’s rights to indemnification under Section 8(a) or 8(b), as applicable, except to the extent that such delay or failure materially prejudices the indemnifying party’s ability to defend against the relevant claims). The indemnifying party shall have the right to assume the defense of any such claim for which it is obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the indemnifying party and its insurer as the indemnifying party may reasonably request, and at the indemnifying party's cost and expense. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate, at its own expense and with counsel of its choice, in the defense of any claim or suit that has been assumed by the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall not settle any claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the Parties cannot agree as to the application of Section 8(a) or 8(b), as applicable, to any claim, the Parties may conduct separate defenses of such claims, with the Indemnified Party retaining the right to claim indemnification from the indemnifying party in accordance with Section 8(a) or 8(b), as applicable, upon resolution of the underlying claim.
9. Insurance.
AeroGrow agrees to obtain and maintain, at its own cost and expense, Commercial General Liability Insurance (including Excess/Umbrella Insurance) in an amount not less than five million dollars ($5,000,000) covering bodily injury, property damage, products – completed operations and personal injury, including death resulting therefrom and Automobile Liability in an amount not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) covering bodily injury and property damage. This required insurance shall be written by companies licensed to do business in the state in which the Services will be provided and shall have a Best’s Key rating of no less than A-VII. Such policy shall name Scotts as Additional Insured including providing defense costs and be primary with respect to any insurance or self-insurance programs maintained by Scotts. The policy must be endorsed to reflect that the Additional Insured will be provided no less than 30 days’ advance written notice of cancellation or material change in the policy required to be carried as part of this Agreement. AeroGrow shall deliver to Scotts a certificate of insurance that specifies the required coverage immediately following execution of this Agreement by both Parties. AeroGrow also shall obtain and maintain at its own cost and expense, any and all statutorily required insurance, including, but not limited to Workers’ Compensation insurance with statutory limits, and Employer’s Liability insurance. The Commercial General Liability, Automobile Liability and Workers Compensation/Employer’s Liability policy will include a Waiver of Subrogation in favor of Scotts. The limits required to be evidenced do not limit the liability of AeroGrow in any claim or suit.
10. Independent Contractor.
AeroGrow is an independent contractor of Scotts, and this Agreement will not be construed to create an association, partnership, joint venture or relation of principal and agent or employer and employee between the Parties or between one Party and any of the other Party’s employees or agents within the meaning of any federal, state or local law. Nothing in this Agreement authorizes either Party to act as agent for the other Party or to bind or enter into contracts on behalf of the other Party.
11. Publicity and Use of Names.
Neither Party may advertise or otherwise publicize the existence or terms of this Agreement or any other aspect of their relationship, without the other Party’s prior written approval. Nor may either Party use the other Party’s (including Affiliates) name, trade name, trademark or service mark in press releases or in any form of advertising without the other Party’s prior written approval. If a third party, including the media, contacts AeroGrow concerning Scotts, its Affiliates or this Agreement, AeroGrow must make no comment. Instead, AeroGrow shall refer the third party to Scotts and promptly notify Scotts of the contact.
12. Miscellaneous.
(a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, as applied to contracts entered into and to be performed in Ohio.
(b) Non-Solicitation. Both Parties agree that they will not knowingly or intentionally solicit or hire any employee or personnel of the other Party upon whom the other Party substantially depends, in whole or in part, for performance of its obligations under this Agreement without first giving the non-soliciting Party written notice of its intent to do so, and a reasonable time within which to secure a replacement. This restriction shall not apply to persons answering advertisements for positions in generally circulated newspapers or other media.
(c) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision hereof shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
(d) Amendment and Assignment. This Agreement may not be modified, amended or assigned except in a writing signed by both Parties. If an assignment occurs, the assignment will not relieve the assigning Party of its liabilities or obligations under this Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of each Party and to each Party’s successors and permitted assignees.
(e) Waiver. A waiver by either Party of any term or condition of this Agreement in one or more instances will not constitute a permanent waiver of the term or condition or any other term or condition of this Agreement or a general waiver. If either Party fails to require the other Party to perform any term of this Agreement, that failure does not prevent the Party from later enforcing that term.
(f) Non-Exclusive Relationship. The relationship between the Parties is non-exclusive and the Services shall be performed without any minimum commitments as to the volume, scope or value of such Services.
(g) Headings. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement.
