CREDIT AGREEMENT
Irving Oil Marketing Limited ("Irving") provides access to a network of facilities in Canada and the U.S.A.
owned by Irving, its affiliates or such independent third parties as Irving may, in its sole discretion, authorize
from time to time (collectively, "Facilities") at which certain of its business customers may purchase or rent
certain products and/or services as may be authorized by Irving from time to time, in its sole discretion
(collectively, “Products and Services”) by means of Irving Commercial Card credit cards including any
renewals or replacements thereof (collectively, "Card(s)"). Each Irving customer named on an existing issued
Card and/or every entity or individual named in each Irving Commercial Card Customer Application
(collectively, "Customers" and individually, “Customer”) requests, wishes to avail itself of, or continue to avail
itself of, the Card and the access provided by the Card. If Irving issues one or more Cards to a Customer, and IN
CONSIDERATION of the foregoing and of the covenants and agreements set forth in any existing, new or
amended Irving Commercial Card Customer Application (collectively, the "Application"), in these Irving
Commercial Card Cardholder Agreement General Terms and Conditions and in schedules and/or
documents now or hereafter attached to, or incorporated by reference in, any of the foregoing documents, all as
may be amended from time to time, (collectively, this "Agreement"), Irving and Customer hereby covenant
and agree as set forth in this Agreement.
- CARDS Customer acknowledges having received one or more Cards. Customer will
immediately notify Irving in writing of any defect or deficiency in such Cards. Customer agrees that all Cards are
at all times the property of Irving, are not assignable or transferable by Customer, may be re-acquired by Irving
upon termination of this Agreement and (in any event) must be returned to Irving promptly upon request.
Customer is responsible for the control and safekeeping of all Cards. Irving may issue, reissue, renew, substitute,
replace, activate, deactivate or cancel Cards at such times and in such manner as it deems appropriate in its sole
discretion. Irving does not warrant or represent in any manner that Cards are or will remain error-free or that use
thereof will be uninterrupted. Customer will cause all its employees, drivers, agents, representatives,
independent contractors, distributors, nominees, permittees and other persons, firms, associations, partnerships,
corporations, trusts, limited liability companies or other entities for whom Customer is legally responsible or who
are permitted by Customer to use the Card (collectively, “Authorized Users”) to observe and abide by all
applicable provisions of this Agreement. Retention or use of the Card, including any renewal or
replacement from time to time, by Customer or any Authorized Users constitutes acceptance by
Customer of all terms and conditions of this Agreement.
- USE OF CARDS, SERVICES AND FACILITIES Customer will deal directly with the provider of
Products and Services with respect to any claim, complaint or adjustment regarding the Products or Services. If
any such provider does not otherwise receive payment, and Customer has not made payment to Irving for such
purchased Products or Services pursuant to this Agreement, Customer shall remain liable to such provider for
such payment. Customer agrees that its access to and use of Facilities are controlled and governed by the
owner and/or operator of such Facilities, and by all applicable laws relating to such Facilities. Customer accepts
all responsibility for use and any misuse of the Facilities by Customer and Authorized Users. Customer will
immediately notify Irving at 1-800-561-2447 of any misplacement, theft, loss or misuse of any Card.
Customer is responsible for all indebtedness resulting from the authorized or unauthorized use of the Card.
Customer will not alter or duplicate, or permit the alteration or duplication of any Card. Customer will not use the
Card or permit any Authorized User to use the Card (a) to incur liability in excess of credit limits established by
Irving or by Customer from time to time; (b) after the expiry date embossed on the Card, (c) for any personal,
family, consumer or household purpose or use; (d) for the purchase, rental or use of any unauthorized or
restricted goods, products and/or services; (e) for any illegal or improper purpose; or (f) otherwise than as is
expressly permitted under this Agreement. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Irving may refuse
authorization for use of the Card in any circumstances where such use is not authorized or would lead to agreed
credit limits being exceeded. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, and whether or not Irving does refuse
such authorization, Customer remains fully liable for, and will pay Irving, all amounts so incurred through such
use or misuse of a Card. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Irving may, from time to
time, vary and amend credit limits, credit terms and conditions, establish or withdraw credit and credit limits
respecting any or all transactions at any Facilities, revise or change those Facilities which honor the Card or
revise or change authorized Products and Services and/or Facilities, in each case without prior notice to
Customer and in Irving’s sole discretion. Customer warrants and represents that it is entering into this
Agreement solely to enable Customer and Authorized Users to use the Card and to gain access to
Facilities, Products and Services for the purpose of conducting Customers’ business in the ordinary course
and not for any personal, family, consumer or household use.
.
- RECORDS, CURRENCY AND PRICES Customer agrees to pay, in accordance with this
Agreement, for all purchases and rentals of Products and Services made with Customer’s Card, all related fees
and charges, applicable currency conversion fees and charges and interest, as shown and billed to Customer on
each Billing Invoice, plus all costs of enforcing this Agreement and collecting all amounts due hereunder,
including, without limitation, attorney and paralegal fees and disbursements, including, without limitation, such
fees and disbursements arising in bankruptcy proceedings. Irving's internal records are binding upon Customer
and constitute the sole evidence of each transaction occurring at all Facilities and in respect of Products and
Services purchased or rented by Cardholder. All indebtedness incurred through use of the Card in Canadian and
U.S. currency will be charged to, and is payable by, Customer, in Canadian currency. Currency conversion for
such indebtedness will be based on the applicable daily noon rate for conversion of U.S. dollars to Canadian
dollars as posted by the Bank of Canada at midnight preceding the applicable transaction, plus one percent
(1%). Customer will pay for Products and Services supplied from all Facilities at prices established by such
Facilities from time to time. To the extent Irving may from time to time offer Customer a discount or discounts
from prices of Products and Services that Customer might otherwise pay at Irving-owned and/or operated Facilities, such discount or discounts will be subject to Customer meeting minimum volume purchase
requirements. Such discount or discounts will vary from time to time in accordance with Customer’s monthly or
other periodic Products and Services volumes and Irving’s discount tier structures, as such discounts and tier
structures may be revised by Irving from time to time in its sole discretion.
- TERMS OF PAYMENT Indebtedness incurred through the use of the Card is due and payable in
full to Irving (or any party to whom Irving has assigned such indebtedness) on the date of the Billing Invoice on
which such indebtedness first appears. If payment of the full amount of such indebtedness is not received by
Irving (or any party to whom Irving has assigned such indebtedness) within the number of days required from
the date of the Billing Invoice (in accordance with the Customer’s account terms set forth in the Customer’s
Application, being either fifteen (15), twenty-one (21) or twenty-five (25) days, as these terms may be
approved and/or modified by Irving from time to time in its sole discretion), and otherwise in accordance with
this Agreement, Customer shall be in default under this Agreement and (without prejudice to Irving’s other rights
and remedies) interest will be charged on the amount due at the lesser of (i) the rate of 2.0% per month on
overdue amounts, compounded monthly (26.82% effective annual rate) [Example: $100 overdue on the first
month is $2.00 in interest charges] or (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law, on the then outstanding
portions of such indebtedness from the date of the Billing Invoice until payment is received by Irving, (or any
party to whom Irving has assigned such indebtedness). A charge may be assessed by Irving (or any party to
whom Irving has assigned such indebtedness) to handle each payment returned or reversed by Customer's
bank.
- DEFAULT If Customer breaches or is otherwise in default under this Agreement, or if Customer
exceeds or breaches the terms of any security deposit, letter of credit, surety bond, security agreement, guaranty
or other security provided to Irving (collectively, "Security"), Irving (or any party to whom Irving has assigned
Customer’s indebtedness and/or the Security) may without notice to Customer (without prejudice to any other
rights it may have): (a) immediately cease honoring the Card issued to Customer, and cause any or all Facilities
to cease honoring or accepting Customer’s Card; and/or (b) foreclose or otherwise realize upon any Security
(but without obligation to do so), and/or (c) avail itself of any other remedy available at law or equity.
- DISCLAIMER Neither Irving nor any of its affiliated or associated companies, successors or
assigns is liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential cost, loss or damage (including, without limitation,
lost revenue or profit, lost opportunity, lost, destroyed or corrupted data or other economic loss) to (a) any
Facility, (b) Customer or its property, (c) any Authorized User or its property, or (d) any other person or property
whatsoever, as a result of or arising out of this Agreement or the issuance, use or malfunction or inability to use
any Card, Facilities, Products and Services or the failure or refusal by Irving to authorize or to refuse to authorize
use of the Card or access any Products and Services or the failure or refusal of any person at any Facility to
accept or honor the Card or permit access to any Products or Services. Irving specifically disclaims any and
all warranties regarding the Card, Facilities, Products and Services.
-
VARIATION AND TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT Irving reserves the right in its sole discretion,
to vary or amend the terms and conditions of this Agreement at any time, on written notice to Customer, and
use or continued use of the Card by Customer or any Authorized Users after such notice constitutes acceptance
of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as varied or amended. Irving in its sole discretion reserves the
right, at any time, to terminate this Agreement or any rights and privileges hereunder, in whole or in part, at any
time; provided, however, that any such termination does not in any way relieve Customer of any of its
obligations hereunder. Customer may terminate this Agreement upon returning all Cards and Documentation
and upon payment of all indebtedness owing hereunder and satisfaction of all of its other obligations under this
Agreement.
