AGENDA ITEM DETAILS
RECOMMENDATION:
City staff recommend the City Council accept quotes and authorize equipment replacement and installation.
ARE YOU SEEKING APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT? IS A PUBLIC HEARING REQUIRED?
No No
BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION:
The East WWTF Grit Classifier was installed in 2001 tasked with removal of grit and heavy inorganics to ensure
downstream capacities and treatment processes are effective.
Staff monitor the equipment’s health as the corrosive environment and material is at a critical state. The 2026 Utility
Budget includes $150,000 for equipment replacement to ensure treatment is maintained. The equipment has
exceeded general life cycle replacement schedule of 15 years and has no redundancy alternate.
Quotes were sought from vendors for equipment replacement. Staff recommend the equipment quoted by Great
Northern Environmental as it is a more direct replacement of the current unit with 304 stainless materials for
protection in the highly corrosive environment and direct drive auger system for $85,800. Additionally, installation
quotes were received with staff recommendation of MN Mechanical Solutions, Inc. for this project at $22,140. Total
projected cost is $107,940 with lead time related to material and equipment of 28 weeks.
The Public Works Subcommittee reviewed this item at their January 21, 2026, meeting and recommended
consideration of approval by the City Council.
SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS ATTACHED:
• Quotes – Equipment
• Quotes - Installation
POSSIBLE MOTION
PLEASE WORD MOTION AS YOU WOULD LIKE IT TO APPEAR IN THE MINUTES:

2. APPLICABILITY, CONTRACT FORMATION AND CHANGES
2.1 Applicability. These Terms and Conditions apply to all orders for Goods and/or Services placed by Trillium
pursuant to a Purchase Order. Unless expressly agreed in writing by Trillium, any terms or conditions
contained in a quotation or any other documents provided by Seller shall not apply to any Goods or Services
purchased by Trillium and shall not bind Trillium, and Trillium explicitly rejects any such terms or conditions.
2.2 Contract Formation. Processing of any Purchase Order or delivery by the Seller shall of itself constitute
acceptance of the Contract where acceptance shall not previously have been communicated to Trillium. The
Contract shall continue until each party’s obligations are completed in accordance with the terms of the
Contract, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the terms of the Contract (the “Term”).
2.3 Changes. Trillium may at any time request changes, amendments or modifications as to the amount, scope
and/or nature of the Goods and/or Services covered by a Purchase Order via a written notice to Seller. Within
five (5) days of receipt of such notice (or sooner if requested by Trillium), Seller shall advise Trillium of the
effect of such change(s) on the Price, delivery dates or other obligations of Seller under or in connection with
the Contract. Seller shall provide reasonable assistance to Trillium to allow Trillium to evaluate the effect of
the changes as advised by Seller. During this period, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Trillium, Seller
shall not delay delivery of the Goods and/or performance of the Services. If Trillium intends to proceed with
the proposed amendments or modifications to the Purchase Order following Seller’s advice, Trillium shall
provide written instruction to proceed with the change(s) confirming the scope of the alteration(s) required by
Trillium and any agreed changes to the Price, delivery date(s) or other affected terms of the Contract. Seller’s
failure to advise Trillium of the effect of the proposed modifications on the Price, delivery dates(s) or any other
obligations under the Contract, as required under this Clause 2.3, shall be deemed as confirmation that all
terms of the Contract remain unchanged. If Trillium and Seller are unable to agree on any applicable changes
to the terms of the Purchase Order due to the proposed alteration(s) as stated in this Clause 2.3, then Seller
shall, if directed by Trillium, nevertheless proceed to perform such alterations and/or changed works (if
technically feasible) until agreement on the applicable changes can be reached.
3. PRICE. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all Prices are fixed and not subject to escalation or surcharges,
including but not limited to increase in costs due to tariffs, duties, or other governmental charges, and any
tax for which Seller is accountable. No increase in Price will be allowed unless approved by Trillium in writing.
Where applicable, Trillium shall have the right at any time to withhold or set-off against amounts owed to the
Seller any amounts which are due or are reasonably expected to become due to Trillium under this or any
other Contract. Seller must submit the final invoice within seven (7) days of the completion of its obligations
under the Contract.
4. DELIVERY OF GOODS AND DOCUMENTATION
4.1 Delivery. All stipulations made by Trillium as to specification of the Goods, or as to quality, fitness, quantity or
time for delivery will be essential conditions. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Trillium, the Goods may
not be delivered by installments and Seller may not apply for progress payments in respect or on account of
the supply of Goods. The Goods must be delivered free at the destination indicated in the Purchase Order,
unless otherwise agreed between the parties. Trillium reserves the right to refuse to pay for any Goods
delivered in excess of the quantity ordered or not in accordance with any delivery schedule referred to in the
Contract. Seller will be liable to Trillium for any loss or damage resulting directly or indirectly from a failure to
deliver by a specific date. Seller shall be responsible for delivery of Goods as stated in the Purchase Order in
accordance with Incoterms 2020 and any subsequent amendments, unless stated otherwise.
4.2 Documentation. Goods will not be accepted unless accompanied by a delivery docket or packing slip showing
Trillium’s order number, part number, part name and quantity. Invoices clearly showing Trillium’s order
number, details of the Goods delivered, contents of each consignment against separate consignment
numbers and the Price and all discounts allowable must be supplied to Trillium together with all certifications
(if any) specified in the Purchase Order.
5. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES

applicable Internationally Harmonized System for Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) pictograms
(and any required local markings).

the hazardous material in accordance with GHS standards.
5.3 Goods containing hazardous substances will be accompanied by emergency information in English in the
form of written instructions, indications and/or markings.
5.4 Seller will provide Safety Data Sheets in accordance with GHS standards and communicate in a timely manner
any available information regarding potential and actual dangers during transportation, movement and use
of all hazardous substances.
6. INSPECTION, TITLE AND RISK
6.1 All Goods delivered to Trillium are subject to Trillium’s and/or Trillium’s Client’s inspection and/or testing after
arrival and unpacking at the ultimate destination. The signing of a delivery document or the payment by
Trillium of the whole or any part of the Price does not constitute acceptance of the Goods. If the Goods are to
be incorporated into any plant or premises, such inspection and testing may be carried out after installation
or incorporation and under operating conditions.
6.2 If the Goods are found to be unsatisfactory, defective or of inferior quality or workmanship or not in
accordance with these Terms and Conditions, Trillium may, without prejudice to any other right or remedy
available to it in respect of the same, reject the Goods and return them to the Seller at the Seller’s cost and
expense, whereupon the Seller must, upon demand by Trillium, reimburse Trillium for any amount paid by
Trillium to the Seller and for the costs and expenses incurred by Trillium in so returning the Goods.
6.3 Trillium also reserves the right to expedite, inspect, and where applicable, test the Goods while they are in
the course of being produced or installed and may for this purpose enter upon the premises of Seller from
time to time. Trillium may reject any work performed or being performed that does not conform to the
Purchase Order, whereupon the work rejected must be rectified at no additional expense to Trillium. Any such
inspection will not relieve Seller of any of its obligations under the Contract.
6.4 Inspection by Trillium and/or Trillium’s Client and completion of Trillium’s quality assurance plan (if
applicable) will not absolve Seller of any liability for poor workmanship.
6.5 Except in respect of Goods rejected by Trillium, title to Goods will pass upon delivery or upon payment of any
part of the Price, if earlier, whether delivered or not.
6.6 In the case of undelivered Goods, the risk of loss or damage will remain with the Seller.
7. PERFORMANCE OF THE SERVICES. It is a fundamental condition of the Purchase Order that the Services shall
be performed at the date(s), in the sequence and at the Site(s) specified in the Purchase Order and all
Services performed or supplied by the Seller will remain at Seller’s sole risk until accepted by Trillium. Trillium
or Trillium’s Client may inspect the Services at any time while they are in the course of being performed.
Trillium and/or Trillium’s Client may reject any work performed or being performed that does not conform to
the Purchase Order, whereupon the work rejected must be reperformed at no additional expense to Trillium.
Any such inspection will not relieve Seller of any of its obligations under the Contract.
8. ISSUED MATERIALS
8.1 Where Trillium is to issue materials to Seller in accordance with the Contract and any specifications
referenced thereto for use or incorporation in the Goods ("Issued Materials"), Seller will (at its own cost)
inspect the Issued Materials and carry out such tests as are reasonably practicable or are specified in the
Contract to satisfy itself as to the suitability of the Issued Materials. Trillium is not liable for any defect in the
Issued Materials which such inspection or testing would have revealed. Where such inspection or testing by
the Seller reveals a defect in the Issued Materials, Seller must immediately notify Trillium and Trillium will
provide a replacement within a reasonable period.
8.2 Issued Materials remain the property of Trillium and must only be used by the Seller for the purpose of the
Goods. The Seller shall indemnify Trillium from any costs, charges or expenses arising from any damage or
defect caused to or arising from the Seller’s use of the Issued Materials. Seller shall be liable for the
immediate replacement of any Issued Materials which are damaged beyond reasonable repair or use whilst
in the Seller’s care and control.
8.3 Issued Materials belonging to Trillium that are held in the care and possession of the Seller must be held
solely for the purposes of the Contract and shall not be within the ownership or disposition of the Seller. Seller
Page 11 of 12
info@trilliumflow.com Conditions of Purchase Rev. 4 (May 2025)
must ensure that no lien, charge or other security interest is created over such Issued Materials while in its
possession or otherwise under its control. Trillium reserves its rights in respect of all of the Issued Material
and Seller must not make any sample of the whole or any portion or description of any of the Issued Materials
in any material form or allow any of the Issued Materials or details of such to be made available or divulged
to any third party without the prior written consent of Trillium.
8.4 Unless otherwise stated in the Contract all scrap remains the property of Trillium. Seller shall account to
Trillium for any scrap or excessive wastage of, or unused, Issued Materials as Trillium may reasonably require.
9. WARRANTIES
9.1 Warranty. Seller expressly warrants that: (a) the Goods and/or Services will strictly comply with any
specifications, representations and with any sample previously supplied by Seller, and any other requirements
specified by Trillium and otherwise be in accordance with the Contract; (b) the Services will be rendered in a
good and workmanlike manner, with due care, skill and diligence and in accordance with good industry
practices and any materials supplied in connection with such Services will be fit for the purpose stated in the
Contract; (c) Seller Personnel is properly trained and experienced to perform the Services safely and
efficiently; (d) the Goods will, unless otherwise specified in the Contract, be new; and (e) Seller has a right to
sell the Goods and the Goods will be free from all charges, liens or encumbrances whatsoever.
9.2 Remedy for Defective Goods. If, within 12 months of placing the Goods into service or 18 months after the
date of delivery (or other agreed guarantee period) whichever occurs first, Trillium gives notice to Seller of any
defect in the Goods, Seller must at its own expense repair or replace the Goods so as to remedy the defect(s).
This provision will apply to any Goods repaired or replaced until the end of the period equal to the guarantee
period from the date of repair or replacement. This will be in addition to any warranty implied by Law. Seller
will also be liable for all direct costs associated with the repair and/or replacement of the Goods referred to
in this Clause 9.2 including removal, disassembly transport, and reinstallation. In the event Seller fails to
proceed diligently to so replace or repair within a reasonable time after receipt of the notice referred to in this
Clause 9.2, Trillium or the Client may undertake or complete such replacement or repair at Seller’s risk, cost
and expense.
9.3 Remedy for Defective Services. If within 12 months after the date the Services are completed (or other agreed
guarantee period), Trillium gives notice to Seller of a defect or other deficiency in the Services, Seller agrees
to correct, at its own cost, all defects or other deficiencies in the Services, including, costs of repair, removal,
reinstallation, new material, labor and equipment attributable to the acts or omissions of Seller or Seller
Personnel or failure by Seller to comply with any obligation expressed or implied herein (the “Warranty Work”).
If following Trillium’s request for Warranty Work, there is a delay by Seller to commence Warranty Work within
the time period requested by Trillium and such delay would cause monetary damages to Trillium, Trillium may,
at its sole option, immediately proceed to perform such Warranty Work itself or through other contractors or
subcontractors and recover from Seller the total cost to Trillium therefor or deduct the same from any monies
due or which become due to Seller. If no sums or if insufficient sums are available for full set-off by Trillium,
then Seller, upon receipt of Trillium’s written notice of Seller’s obligations hereunder, shall promptly remit to
Trillium all sums due and owing pursuant to the terms of this Clause 9.3.
9.4 Seller shall provide twelve (12) months advance notice to Trillium prior to Seller ceasing production of any
Goods or spare parts and Seller shall provide Trillium with all manufacturing information and drawings to
enable Trillium to manufacture such Goods or spare parts after Seller ceases production.
9.5 If requested by Trillium, for the duration of Trillium’s contractual obligations to its Client(s), each aspect of the
prices, warranties, benefits and other terms being provided under this Contract are and will remain at least
equal to the terms that have been offered and/or will be offered by Seller to its other customers. If Seller has
provided or will provide better terms than those provided to Trillium hereunder, this Contract will be deemed
appropriately amended to provide such terms to Trillium. Seller shall promptly provide Trillium with any
refunds, credits, or benefits thereby created.
10. INDEMNITY AND INSURANCE
10.1 Seller shall defend, indemnify and hold the Trillium Indemnitees harmless against all loss, liability, damage,
costs, actions, demands, expenses and suits whatsoever (including in the case of litigation legal costs and
disbursements) arising out of or suffered or incurred in connection with any loss or damage to property or
injury to or death of any person or any financial or other consequential loss for and in respect of any such
loss, damage, injury or death in whole or in part caused or arising from directly or indirectly or in any way
attributable or incidental to: (a) any willful or negligent act or omission whatsoever by the Seller or Seller
Personnel; (b) any claim with respect to or arising out of any defect in, or title to, the Goods; (c) any claim that
the Goods and/or Services infringe or are alleged to infringe directly or indirectly any patent, trademark,
copyright or other proprietary right; or (d) breach by Seller or Seller Personnel of any of the Seller’s obligations
under the Contract or applicable Laws.
10.2 If any part of the Goods or Services in any suit or proceedings is held to constitute infringement and its use
be enjoined, Seller shall within a reasonable time either (a) secure for Trillium and its Client the perpetual
right to continue the use of the Good(s) or Service(s) or (b) replace or modify the Good(s) and/or Service(s)
so that it becomes non-infringing, provided the performance is not affected in any adverse manner.
10.3 If the Seller either as principal or as agent enters upon any premises or property of or being used or accessed
by Trillium or its Client in order to perform Services including construction, erection, inspection, delivery,
servicing, repairing, consulting or advising or any other obligation: (a) Seller shall indemnify and hold the
Trillium Indemnitees harmless at all times from and against all losses, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities,
claims and demands whatsoever on account of injury to or death of any person or on account of loss or
damage to the property of any person (including the Seller and Seller Personnel) arising out of or in any
manner connected with the performance of such work, and the Seller will at its own expense defend any and
all actions based on the foregoing and must pay all legal costs and all costs and other expenses arising from
such actions; and (b) Seller must at all times exercise all necessary precautions for the safety of persons who
might be affected by such work, and without limiting this, must at all times duly comply with the requirements
of any regulations, work practices and procedures prescribed by applicable Laws, and of any authority having
jurisdiction in the matter, and with any direction that may from time to time be given by any supervisor or
other responsible employee of Trillium.
10.4 Insurance. Seller shall have in place contracts of insurance with reputable insurers incorporated in its country
of establishment to cover its obligations under the Contract. On request, Seller shall supply evidence of the
maintenance of the insurance and all of its terms from time to time applicable. Seller shall, on request by
Trillium, assign to Trillium the benefit of such insurance.
11. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND CONFIDENTIALITY
11.1 Confidentiality. Any document, data, drawings, blue prints, plans, designs, images, specifications, technical
data and any other material or information supplied or made available by Trillium to Seller as part of the
Contract or any other documentation or information in whatsoever form provided by Trillium to Seller during
the performance of the Contract (“Confidential Information”), shall be treated as strictly confidential and shall
not be divulged by Seller to any person, except as required by Law or to Seller Personnel, who need to know
such Confidential Information in order for Seller to comply with its obligations under the Contract and Seller
shall ensure that such recipients comply with the obligations set out in this clause as though they were a party
to the Contract. Seller shall promptly return or (at Trillium’s request) destroy all Confidential Information on
request by Trillium. As between Trillium and Seller, Trillium retains title to all of its Confidential Information.
11.2 Intellectual Property Ownership. All right, title and interest (including all Intellectual Property Rights) in any
documents, information and other materials created in or arising from the performance of the Contract (the
"Work Product") shall be the exclusive property of and shall vest in Trillium on creation. Nothing in the Contract
shall affect the ownership of rights in materials created by Seller prior to or independently of the performance
of the Contract, which shall remain with Seller. To the extent that use of such rights is required to be able to
use the Work Product, Seller hereby grants to Trillium a perpetual, irrevocable, sub-licensable, non-exclusive,
world-wide, royalty free right to use such rights. Nothing in the Contract shall affect the ownership of rights
(including Intellectual Property Rights) in materials, including without limitation specifications, designs,
drawings, data, and know how, provided to Seller by Trillium, which shall remain with Trillium. Seller shall
have no right to use such materials, except as necessary to perform its obligations under the Contract.
12. PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA. Each party agrees to process the personal data acquired from the other
party during the performance of the Contract (the “Personal Data”) in compliance with applicable Data
Protection Laws, including where relevant, the provisions of General Data Protection Regulation (EU)
2016/679 and the United Kingdom Data Protection Act 2018, as amended from time to time and every law
and provision concerning personal data protection, which may be applicable from time to time (hereinafter,
collectively referred to as “Data Protection Laws”). For the purpose of this Contract’s management and
performance, each party (i) should be considered as acting as an independent data controller with regard to
the Personal Data it processes (as a “Secondary Data Controller”) and which have been provided by the other
party (“Primary Data Controller”). Such Primary Data Controller undertakes to duly inform its personnel of
such disclosure on behalf of the Secondary Data Controller. Each party, for the parts it is responsible for, is
specifically obliged to comply with, when necessary, obligations concerning information to be sent to the data
subjects (including ensuring appropriate legal basis for processing) and to obtain, when necessary, from the
same all required consent in relation to the processing of the Personal Data transferred to and processed by
the other party and to meet any obligations provided for by Data Protection Laws. The parties declare that
their respective internal and external personnel and staff members processing the Personal Data, directly
and/or indirectly concerned with the performance of the Contract, have been informed of the confidential
nature of, and legal requirements (including those under the Data Protection Laws) relating to, such Personal
Data and have received suitable training on their responsibilities to protect the Personal Data. Where
additional services would be contemplated between the parties, involving the processing of Personal Data by
a party on behalf of the other, the parties undertake to discuss in good faith of the term of any data processing
agreement which may be required.
13. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS
13.1 Applicable Laws. Seller represents and warrants that it is, and will remain, fully compliant with all applicable
Laws (including in connection with bribery and anti-corruption). Seller shall comply and shall ensure that
Seller Personnel read and comply with all Trillium policies listed in the Purchase Order or otherwise provided
to Seller, in each case as updated from time to time. Seller shall ensure that Seller Personnel read and comply
with Trillium’s Supplier Code of Conduct as updated from time to time. Seller shall obtain and maintain all
permits, licenses and other approvals or consents necessary for the performance of the Contract. Trillium
shall be entitled to demand a certificate of origin of any of the Goods that Trillium receives from Seller. Any
breach of this Clause 13.1 shall be deemed a material breach and (without prejudice to its other remedies)
Trillium shall be entitled to immediately terminate the Contract concerned and any other contract then in
force between Trillium and Seller.
13.2 Economic Sanctions and Trade Controls. (a) Seller shall comply with all applicable trade controls and
sanctions, including but not limited to United Kingdom (UK), European Union (EU) and Laws of the U.S.
Commerce, Treasury, State and Defense Departments or other agency regulating U.S. export controls and
sanctions. (b) Seller shall disclose to Trillium in writing whether, to the best of its knowledge, Seller or any of
its owners, shareholders or officers are, or have been, the subject of a government investigation or convicted
for violations of any applicable export Laws. Definitions for ownership and control vary based on the applicable
sanctions program. OFAC generally follows the “50 Percent Rule,” which states that the property and interests
in property of entities directly or indirectly owned fifty percent (50%) or more in the aggregate by one or more
blocked persons are considered blocked. However, some sanctions programs, such as the EU and UK use a
different standard, including a focus on not just ownership but also on control. (c) Seller shall acquire any
necessary export licenses or permits prior to exporting goods to Trillium. Seller shall inform Trillium if Seller
or any of its subsidiaries appear on the U.S., UK, EU, or any other international sanction list. To the extent that
Seller sub-contracts or assigns its obligations or utilizes agents or third parties with respect to the
performance of this Contract, Seller shall incorporate the obligations of this provision with respect to export
compliance into its respective subcontracts and agreements with such parties.
13.3 Goods Originating in or Exported from Sanctioned Countries. (a) Seller shall not supply Goods originating in
or exported from sanctioned or embargoed countries, including but not limited to Russia, Iran, Cuba, North
Korea, Syria, Belarus, and the occupied Ukrainian territories (including but not limited to Crimea and
Sevastopol, Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia). (b) Seller shall not supply iron or steel Goods
processed in a third country incorporating iron or steel inputs originating in Russia. If requested, Seller shall
provide evidence or certification of the origin of the iron and steel inputs utilized, such as a mill test certificate.
(c) Seller shall not supply Goods made in regions prohibited by the US, EU or UK, such as China’s Xinjiang
Uyghur Autonomous Region.
13.4 Forced Labor. Seller shall not supply Goods made from forced labor nor Goods utilizing inputs or components
made from forced labor.
14. TERMINATION AND SUSPENSION
14.1 Termination for Convenience. Trillium may terminate the Contract or any part thereof with immediate effect
for its sole convenience by giving written notice to Seller. In the event of such termination, Seller shall
immediately stop all work on the Contract. Seller shall be paid for any Good(s) delivered and accepted by
Trillium and for Services properly performed prior to the date of termination.
14.2 Termination for Cause. Trillium may terminate any Contract or any part thereof with immediate effect, for
cause, in the event of: (a) any Seller default, including but not limited to late deliveries, deliveries of Goods
Page 12 of 12
info@trilliumflow.com Conditions of Purchase Rev. 4 (May 2025)
and/or performance of the Services that are defective or that do not conform to the Contract, failure to provide
Trillium reasonable assurances of future performance, failure to comply with any term or condition of the
Contract; or (b) any insolvency-related or similar event. In the event of termination for cause, Trillium shall
not be liable to Seller for any amount except for that part of the Price that applies to the supply of finished
Goods and/or Services which have, at the date of termination, already been delivered (and/or performed)
and accepted. In the event of termination for cause under Clause 14.2(b), it shall be lawful for Trillium to
enter the premises where the Goods are situated and take possession of any materials the property in which
has passed to or is vested in Trillium or attributable to the Goods and/or recover any Work Product and/or
Confidential Information. Termination for cause shall be without prejudice to any claim or right of action that
Trillium may have by virtue of the default which gave rise to the termination.
14.3 Suspension. Trillium may at any time suspend the performance of the Purchase Order, in whole or in part,
through a written notice to Seller. Upon receipt of such notice, Seller shall promptly suspend further
performance of its works and shall during the suspension period protect and secure the Goods and/or
Services (including all supplied materials and equipment) against any deterioration, loss or damage. At the
end of the suspension period and subject to Seller’s revised delivery information, Trillium reserves the right
to either instruct Seller to proceed with the manufacture and/or delivery of the Goods and/or performance of
the Services to the agreed revised delivery date and Seller shall be bound by such instructions or cancel the
Purchase Order in accordance with Clause 2.3 of these Terms and Conditions.
15. GENERAL
15.1 Notices. Any notice given by a party under the Contract shall be: (a) in writing and in English; (b) sent to the
relevant party at the address set out in the Contract or to an alternative address notified in writing by the
relevant party; or (c) if agreed to by the parties, served by email to the email address set out in the Contract
or as otherwise notified from time to time. The parties may not serve documents relating to formal legal
proceedings by email.
15.2 Force Majeure. If, by reason of an event of Force Majeure, either of the parties shall be delayed in, or
prevented from, performing any of the provisions of the Contract then, provided that the affected party
promptly, but in no event later than three (3) days after the occurrence of the event of Force Majeure, notifies
the other in writing of the nature and extent of such event, such delay or non-performance shall not be
deemed to be a breach of that party’s obligations under the Contract and no loss or damage shall be claimed
by either of the parties hereto from the other by reason thereof. In case of a Force Majeure event, the parties
agree to meet and work together to minimize the impact of such event on the Goods and/or Services, If the
Force Majeure event continues to delay or prevent either party’s performance of the provisions of the Contract
for a continuous period of more than sixty (60) days, either party may terminate the Contract by written notice
to the other party.
15.3 No Employment. In the event that Seller’s obligations require or contemplate performance of Services by
Seller Personnel to be done on Trillium’s or Client’s property, Seller agrees that all such Services shall be
performed as an independent contractor and that the Seller Personnel performing such Services shall not be
considered Trillium’s employees.
15.4 Cumulative and Equitable Remedies. Trillium’s rights and remedies provided in the Contract are cumulative
and not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by applicable Laws and shall not be affected by
termination of the Contract. Seller recognizes that any breach or threatened breach of the Contract may cause
Trillium irreparable harm for which damages may not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, in addition to any
other remedies and damages available to Trillium, Seller acknowledges and agrees that Trillium is entitled to
the remedies of specific performance, injunction and other equitable relief without proof of special damages.
15.5 Assignment and Subcontracting. Seller may not assign, transfer, mortgage, charge, subcontract, delegate,
declare a trust over or deal in any other manner with the Contract, in whole or in part, or any of its rights or
obligations under the Contract without the prior written approval of Trillium. Where permission to subcontract
is granted by Trillium, Seller shall ensure the provisions of the Contract are reflected with its Sub-Suppliers
and are enforced against them. Notwithstanding any permission by Trillium to subcontract, all responsibility
and liability shall remain with the Seller.
15.6 No Partnership. The parties are independent persons and are not partners, principal and agent or employer
and employee and the Contract does not establish any joint venture, trust, fiduciary or other relationship
between them, other than the contractual relationship expressly provided for in it. Neither party shall have,
nor shall represent that it has, any authority to make any commitments on the other party’s behalf.
15.7 Severability and Survival. All terms of the Contract are severable, and any provision of the Contract held to be
invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality, and enforceability of the
remaining provisions hereof or thereof. The invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall
not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. Those provisions that are expressed, or by their nature
are required, to survive expiry or termination of the Contract, shall survive expiry or termination of the
Contract.
15.8 Entire Agreement. The Contract constitutes the entire agreement between Trillium and Seller and supersedes
any prior oral or written understandings and representations between Trillium and Seller relating to its subject
matter. The provisions of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods are
expressly disclaimed and shall not apply.
16. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
16.1 Americas. If Trillium is based in North or South America (the “Americas”), the Contract will be governed by
and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without giving effect to any choice of law or
conflict provision or rule that would cause the laws of any other jurisdiction to be applied. Where this Clause
16.1 applies, all disputes arising out of or in connection with the Contract must be brought in a state or federal
court sitting in Harris County, Texas, and each party hereby irrevocably submits itself to the exclusive
jurisdiction of each such court in any such action or proceeding and waives any objection it may now or
hereafter have to venue or convenience of forum. THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THEIR RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY.

construed in accordance with the laws of England. Where this Clause 16.2 applies, all disputes arising out of

shall be London, England. The language used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. The governing law
of this arbitration agreement shall be English law.
