3. ACCEPTANCE: This Agreement is valid and enforceable without Customer signature when the CUSTOMER has placed an order with Crampt or provided Stored Goods to Crampt.

If excess valuation is desired beyond the Declared Value, CUSTOMER must request excess valuation coverage and Crampt must agreed to provide such excess valuation coverage in writing at the time of order creation.

(b) delivery of the Stored Goods that are the subject of the claim (“Notice Date”).

6.6 No claim may be maintained by CUSTOMER or others against Crampt for loss, damage or destruction of the Stored Goods by Crampt pursuant to this Agreement, unless CUSTOMER provides Crampt with written notice of the claim prior to the Notice Date, and unless such claim is commenced within nine months after the Notice Date.

7. SERVICES TO STORED GOODS: Services required of Crampt are limited to storage, packing, handling, moving and shipping, and Crampt does not accept responsibility for any additional attention or service. Should Crampt, however, in its sole discretion, determine that moth-treating, fumigation, or otherwise treating or handling all or a portion of the Stored Goods is necessary for the protection of the Stored Goods, it may render such additional service and add its charge therefore to the amount payable by the CUSTOMER.

8. DELIVERY AND ACCESS TO GOODS:

8.1 Stored Goods will be ready for delivery or access during regular working days, on 48 business hours notice from the CUSTOMER or any authorized person (s) identified on the CUSTOMER PROFILE or any person Crampt reasonably believes to have authority to act on behalf of CUSTOMER. CUSTOMER represents that the authorized person (s) has/have full authority to order any service for or removal of the Stored Goods and to deliver and receive such Stored Goods. Such order may be given through the website, by telephone, email or in writing.

8.2 When Stored Goods are ordered out, Crampt shall be given a reasonable time to carry out said instructions, and if it is delayed or unable to do so (or to provide any other service herein contemplated) because of a Force Majeure Event or because of loss or destruction of Stored Goods for which Crampt is not liable, or because of any other excuse provided by law, Crampt shall not be liable for any delay or failure to carry out such instructions or services.

10. ASSIGNMENT: No rights, liabilities or obligations of CUSTOMER under this Agreement can be assigned without the express written consent of Crampt, which Crampt may withhold at its discretion. Until such express written consent is granted by Crampt, CUSTOMER remains fully liable under this Agreement.

11. DEFAULT:

11.1 The occurrence of any one or more of the following events shall constitute default (“Events of Default”): a. Failure to pay any sum due hereunder within fifteen (15) days of when due; or b. Breach of any provisions of this Agreement.

11.2 Upon the occurrence of any of the Events of Default, Crampt, at its sole option, may exercise any or all of the following remedies without terminating the agreement:
a. Demand in writing that CUSTOMER pick up the Stored Goods;
b. Deliver the Stored Goods to the Delivery Address, if specified, and if not, to CUSTOMER’S address. Delivery of Stored Goods to CUSTOMER shall be at CUSTOMER’S sole cost and expense and payment of all outstanding storage, handling and delivery charges will be prepaid;
c. Sell the Stored Goods as provided for in Section 12;
d. Terminate this Agreement, whereupon Crampt shall recover all costs and damages suffered by reason of such termination; or
e. Exercise any and all rights available to Crampt under law or at equity.

11.3 In the event Crampt exercises any of its available rights or remedies, it shall have no liability to CUSTOMER or anyone claiming through CUSTOMER. The exercise by Crampt of any one or more of the remedies provided in this Agreement shall not prevent the subsequent exercise by Crampt of any one or more of the other remedies herein provided. All remedies provided for in this Agreement are cumulative and may, at the election of Crampt, be exercised alternatively, successively or in any other manner and are in addition to any of the rights provided by law. Crampt shall be entitled to recover all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement.

12. WAREHOUSEMAN’S LIEN: This Agreement, the terms and conditions stated herein, the Schedule A, the CUSTOMER profile, and any other attached schedules or addendums shall collectively constitute a Warehouse Receipt. Crampt shall have a lien upon the Stored Goods, or on the proceeds thereof in its hand for all lawful charges for storage and preservation of interest, transportation, labor, wrapping, coopering, crating and all other charges and expenses in relation to the Stored Goods, or any part thereof, and also for all reasonable charges and expenses for notice and advertisement of sale, and for the sale of the property where default has been made in satisfying Crampt’s lien, pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code of California. Crampt may enforce the lien at any time either by public or private sale of the Stored Goods without a judicial hearing. This lien shall not prevent Crampt from exercising any other remedies it may have, nor shall enforcement of the lien provided for in this Section bar Crampt’s right to recover so much of its claim as is not paid from the proceeds of a foreclosure sale. If Customer notifies Crampt in writing that Customer is a member of the military, then Crampt agrees to follow the requirements of applicable law regarding Crampt’s enforcement of any liens.

13. RELOCATION OF STORED GOODS: Crampt reserves the right to relocate Stored Goods to another Crampt or contracted warehouse facility within a 50-mile radius without advance notification to CUSTOMER. Such relocation shall not interfere with Crampt’s enforcement of its lien rights.

14. INDEMNIFICATION: Unless caused by the gross negligence of Crampt, CUSTOMER agrees to fully indemnify, defend and hold harmless Crampt and its Affiliates and its and theirs officers, employees, contractors and agents for any liability, cost or expense, including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, that Crampt may incur as a result of any claims, demands, costs or judgments against it arising out of its relations with CUSTOMER or third parties pursuant to this Agreement.
