API Monogram Program Alternative Marking of Products License Agreement

Part 1 – Scope

The API Monogram

Program allows an API Licensee to apply the API Monogram to applicable products that fall within the scope

of the program. The use of the API Monogram on these products constitutes a representation and warranty by the Licensee to

purchasers of the products that, as of the date indicated, the products were produced under a veriﬁed quality management system and

in accordance with the applicable API product speciﬁcation(s) in effect at the time of manufacture. API Monogram Program Licenses

are issued only after an on-site audit has veriﬁed that the Licensee has demonstrated that it meets the requirements described by

API Speciﬁcation Q1 at all times, and that it has demonstrated capability to satisfy the requirements of the applicable API product

speciﬁcation(s) and API Monogram license agreement.

The purpose of this document is to establish the requirements for application of the API Monogram to eligible products. API is

the owner of all rights to the certiﬁcation mark (hereinafter “the API Monogram”) relating to API’s Monogram Program. Under the

terms set forth in the API Monogram Licensing Agreement, API grants to the Licensee a non-exclusive non-transferable license to

use the API Monogram on the types of products set forth in the Certiﬁcate of Authority to Use the Ofﬁcial API Monogram provided

that these products are made in accordance with the requirements set forth in the API Product Speciﬁcation in effect at the time of

manufacture associated with the assigned license number, API Speciﬁcation Q1, Speciﬁcation for Quality Programs for the Petroleum,

Petrochemical and Natural Gas Industry, and the API Monogram Program Requirements, including any amendments, modiﬁcations,

substitutions or interpretations. The Agreement is applicable only to Licensee’s product(s) that are made at the Licensee’s facility under

controls speciﬁed in applicable marking procedures that have been developed and maintained by the Licensee.

However, API recognizes that there are certain manufacturing processes or types of products that may lend themselves to alternative

API Monogram marking procedures and controls. In particular, there may be instances where a licensee may want to have the

API Monogram and its license number applied at a different location (facility) than that covered by the applicable API License. This

document sets forth the requirements for application of the API Monogram under those circumstances.

API Monogram Program Alternative Marking of Products License Agreement

Part 2 – General API Monogram Marking Requirements

Each Licensee shall control the application of the API Monogram in accordance with the following:

1. Each Licensee shall develop and maintain an API Monogram Marking Procedure that documents the marking/monogramming

requirements speciﬁed by the API product speciﬁcation to be used for application of the API Monogram by the Licensee. The

marking procedure shall deﬁne the location(s) where the Licensee shall apply the API Monogram and require that the Licensee’s

license number and date of manufacture be marked on monogrammed products in conjunction with the API Monogram. At a

minimum, the date of manufacture shall be two digits representing the month and two digits representing the year (e.g., 05-08 for

May 2008) unless otherwise stipulated in the applicable API product speciﬁcation. Where the API product speciﬁcation contains

no marking requirements, the Licensee shall deﬁne the location(s) where this information is applied in the marking procedure.

2. The API Monogram may be applied at any time appropriate during the production process (provided that the product remains

under the control of the Licensee) but shall be removed in accordance with the Licensee’s API Monogram Marking Procedure,

if the product is subsequently found to be nonconforming with API speciﬁed requirements. Products that do not conform to API

speciﬁed requirements shall not bear the API Monogram.

3. Except for the situations outlined in Part 3 of this document, only an API Licensee may apply the API Monogram and its license

number to products eligible for the API Monogram and the API Monogram shall only be applied at the licensed facility.

4. The authority responsible for applying and removing the API Monogram shall be deﬁned in the Licensee’s API Monogram

Marking Procedure.

API Monogram Program Alternative Marking of Products License Agreement

Part 3 – Alternative API Marking Controls

In some cases, there may be instances where alternative marking controls may be used. These controls are subject to API license

requirements, API Speciﬁcation Q1, and other API speciﬁcations and requirements.

General

1. In the event that an API Monogram is to be applied at a location not identiﬁed in the API License Agreement, Licensees must

provide prior written notiﬁcation to API, and secure API approval, prior to marking. Prior to marking, the Licensee shall enter into

an agreement ensuring quality control over the marking process with any Marking Party, and any Marking Parties shall obtain

authorization from API.

2. All facilities involved in an API Monogram Alternative Marking Agreement shall be subject to audit by API at API’s discretion.

3. API reserves the right to require more frequent audits (at the Licensee’s expense) for Licensees with an approved API Monogram

Alternative Marking Agreement.

4. API reserves the right to have a representative present at any location when the API Monogram is applied.

5. API reserves the right to deny or revoke the rights granted under the alternative marking arrangements if adequate quality control

over the marking process cannot be demonstrated or maintained by the Licensee and/or the Marking Party.

Eligible Processes and Products

API has determined that it can ensure that ﬁnished products will meet API speciﬁcations, while addressing the demonstrated need for

ﬂexibility in certain circumstances. In some instances, alternative marking procedures and controls may be developed and deemed

to be acceptable for certain manufacturing processes or types of products. The current processes and products eligible for API

Monogram Alternative Marking Agreement are shown in Table 1. The items listed are the minimum controls that shall be deﬁned

and documented by the Licensee. Additional controls may be required by API prior to approval.

Requests for application of this alternative marking program to other product lines will be considered and evaluated by API on a case-

by-case basis. API requires support for any request in the form of: (1) documentation of an actual need for such a marking program,

and (2) evidence that indicates that the original licensee will be able to ensure that the new product will meet the API speciﬁcation.

Contractual Relationships

1. General: Any entity that applies the API Monogram (Marking Party) to eligible products must have a contractual arrangement with

API and the original Licensee. There shall be no assignment or delegation of API license rights or responsibilities from the original

Licensee to the Marking Party.

2. API Monogram License Agreement: The API Monogram License agreement is a contract between API and the Licensee which

among other things, grants a Licensee the right to apply the API Monogram to products that meet the API product speciﬁcation

requirements and that were produced under a quality management system that conforms to API Speciﬁcation Q1.

3. Marking Agreement: If the API Monogram is applied by a party other than the original API Licensee, or at a facility not identiﬁed

on the original API License, as per any scenario detailed in Table 1, the Marking Party shall enter into a contractual

arrangement with the original API Licensee that ensures that ﬁnal products meet the appropriate API speciﬁcation(s). The marking

party shall also obtain an API Monogram Alternative Marking Agreement, prior to marking any product with the API Monogram.

4. Licensee Responsibility: The holder of an API License shall be responsible for any ﬁnal product meeting any applicable API

speciﬁcation, including all marking requirements. The Marking Party shall be responsible for maintaining sufﬁcient controls to

ensure that products marked with the API Monogram meet all applicable API product speciﬁcations.
