The case concerns whether a party violated a contractual exclusivity agreement by providing goods to a third party who then resold them in a restricted territory, despite the agreement explicitly prohibiting direct sales into that territory. The court reasoned that while the agreement prohibited direct sales into the restricted area, it did not prohibit the sale of goods to a third party outside the territory with no knowledge or control over that third party's subsequent distribution, therefore finding no breach because the transmission of goods to the restricted territory was an independent act by the third party beyond the initial contracting party's control or contractual obligation.
