Such lists will specify the manufacturer, supplier, and distributor as well as the inventory, products, fixtures, furniture, equipment, signs, stationery, suppliers, and services that we have approved to be carried or used in the Restaurant. There may be only one Approved Supplier for an Approved Supply. We may revise the Approved Suppliers List and Approved Supplies List from time to time in our sole discretion. Such approved lists will be given to you as we deem advisable.
If you want to (i) offer for sale at the Restaurant any brand of product not then-approved by us, (ii) use any brand of product or supply in the operation of the Restaurant that is not then-approved by us as meeting its minimum specifications and quality standards, or (iii) purchase any product from a supplier that is not then-designated by us as an Approved Supplier, you must first notify us in writing and, if requested by us, submit samples and such other information as we require for examination and/or testing or to otherwise determine whether such product, material or supply, or such proposed supplier meets our specifications and quality standards. You must pay a charge not to exceed the reasonable cost of the inspection and evaluation and the actual cost of the test and approval of the proposed supplier or product. We estimate that the costs for such test and approval of the proposed supplier or product could be $5,000 (See Item 6). Our review is typically completed in thirty (30) to forty-five (45) days. We reserve the right, at our option, to reexamine or retest the facilities and products of any supplier of an approved item and to revoke such approval if such item fails to continue to meet any of our standards or criteria. We will send written notice of any revocation of an Approved Supplier.
