Injunctive Relief: 
Effective upon execution of this Agreement, DEFENDANTS shall not ship or deliver for sale or distribution in California any products that contain more than one thousand (1,000) parts per million Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate ("DEHP"), Diisodecyl phthalate ("DIOP"), and Diisononyl phthalate ("DINP") unless such products are shipped or delivered with a clear and reasonable warning. DEFENDANTS shall further take all reasonable steps to affix a clear and reasonable warning on all units as described above currently on shelves for sale in California. To the extent practicable, DEFENDANTS shall take reasonable steps to ensure that each warning required shall be prominently affixed to or printed upon the label or packaging of the product so as to be clearly conspicuous, as compared with other statements or designs on the label or packaging as to render it likely to be read and understood by an ordinary purchaser of the product. If the warning is displayed on the product's label, it shall be at least the same size as the largest of any other health or safety warnings on the product and the word "WARNING" shall be in all capital letters and in bold print. For any products as described above sold via a website by DEFENDANTS, the warning shall appear either (a) on the checkout page on the website for California customers relating to any of the product being sold, or (b) on the product information page related to a product on that website. For those products that are subject to the warning requirements, the following language, or something in substantially similar form, shall be applied to each unit: "WARNING. This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm."

Effective upon execution of this Agreement, DEFENDANTS shall not ship or deliver for sale or distribution in California any products that contain Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (“DEHP”), Diisodecyl phthalate (“DIDP”), and Diisononyl phthalate (“DINP”) in levels that exceed the safe harbor levels for these chemicals, unless such products are shipped or delivered with a clear and reasonable warning. DEFENDANTS shall further take all reasonable steps to affix a clear and reasonable warning on all units currently on shelves for sale in California. To the extent practicable, DEFENDANTS shall take reasonable steps to ensure that each warning required shall be prominently affixed to or printed upon the label or packaging of the product so as to be clearly conspicuous, as compared with other statements or designs on the label or packaging as to render it likely to be read and understood by an ordinary purchaser of the product. If the warning is displayed on the product’s label, it shall be at least the same size as the largest of any other health or safety warnings on the product and the word “WARNING” shall be in all capital letters and in bold print. For any products sold via a website by DEFENDANTS, the warning shall appear either (a) on the checkout page on the website for California customers relating to any of the product being sold, or (b) on the product information page related to a product on that website. 8.3 For those products that are subject to the warning requirements, the following language, or something in substantially similar form, shall be applied to each unit: “WARNING.
