The Seller is engaged in the sale of Furniture; and
The Consignor has created and owns certain products and wants to sell those Products.
The Consignor desires that the products to be sold on consignment by the Seller, and the Seller wishes to sell those Products on behalf of the Consignor.

- DELIVERY OF PRODUCTS.
The Seller will accept the Products from the Consignor on a consignment basis only.
- TERM; TERMINATION.
(a) Consignment Period. For each Product, a consignment period begins when the Consignor receives that Product and ends upon the sale and delivery of the Product (the "Consignment Period").
(b) Termination. Either party may terminate this agreement at any time, for any reason. Termination is effective 30 days after either party serves written notice on the other party at that party's notice address listed in section 16 below.
(c) Effect of Termination. Within 30 days of the date of the termination notice, the Seller shall return all Products to the Consignor. A $XXXX delivery return fee will be due to Seller paid by the Consignor.

The Commission is the Seller's sole compensation under this agreement.
(b) Payment.

(a) Consignor Request. At any time, and from time to time, the Consignor may request the return of all or some of the Products by providing 30 days' written notice.

The Seller may thereafter dispose of the abandoned Products in its sole discretion.
