Injunctive Relief: 
3.1 Zigi agrees, promises, and represents that Zigi shall reformulate any Covered Products manufactured after the Effective Date and offered for sale in California to a point where the level of DEHP in the Covered Products does not exceed 0.1% by weight. 3.2 Zigi agrees, promises, and represents that, as of the Effective Date, to the extent it ships or sells any Covered Products in existing inventory that have not been reformulated, it will provide warnings for cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm on such Covered Products that comply with Proposition 65. The warnings shall comply with warning requirements under Title 27, California Code of Regulations, §§ 25600, et seq. The warnings shall be provided in such a conspicuous and prominent manner that will assure the message is made available and likely to be read, seen, or heard by the consumer prior to or at the time of the sale or purchase. Where a label used for the Covered product in existing inventory, that exceeds 0.1% of DEHP includes consumer information as defined by California Code of Regulations title 27 §25600.1(c) in a language other than English, the warning must also be provided in that language in addition to English. Should Zigi sell or distribute any Covered Products in existing inventory, that exceeds 0.1% of DEHP, through the internet the warning will be posted in the manner provided for with respect to internet sales, as provided for in 27 CCR sections 25601 and 25602, as they may be subsequently amended.
