Outcomes Met by Completing this Assignment:
Background: Things are moving quickly for the GC owners. They are almost ready to open operations and finalize contract negotiations with EPI to purchase cleaning products. EPI and GC have already agreed that GC:
(1) will buy cleaning products exclusively from EPI for three years,
(2) will be permitted to resell those products to clients and other businesses, and
(3) may contract with certain businesses who buy cleaning products from GC to become Authorized Distributors (AD) for those GC products; ADs will be listed on GC’s website.
GC needs to draft a contract to reflect an agreement between GC and future ADs. The contract will be complex, and GC is concerned about risks and liabilities created by AD relationships.
In a meeting with TLG, GC owners stated they have heard about several recent lawsuits involving businesses and ADs. Connor presented a “what if…” scenario that could create complicated liabilities arising from GC-AD agreements.
The “what if…” scenario follows.
“What-If…” scenario: In contracts with ADs, GC includes an indemnification clause stating that the AD would cover claims by third parties harmed directly as a result of the ADs actions.
A GC AD contracts to clean concrete floors in a commercial building in North Carolina using Floor-ex, a cleaning solution, purchased from GC (manufactured by EPI and sold to GC for resale distribution).
The AD’s employee spills a large tub of Floor-ex on the job site resulting in the following:
The building owner files a lawsuit against the AD and GC for negligence, as well as for product liability. The building owner seeks compensation damages for:
The GC owners ask TLG’s opinion about their liability if a situation like the “what-If…” scenario occurred with one of their ADs. TLG’s response will influence the owners’ final decision about whether to use ADs in their new business.
Instructions:
Winnie and Ralph asked you to discuss the “what-If…” scenarios and analyze the related potential liabilities with an attorney TLG has on retainer. Winnie and Ralph want you to then summarize the attorney’s analysis in a memorandum to them for further discussion with the GC owners.
The memo should analyze and explain:
