ARTICLE 2 - MANUFACTURING

A.	ALTIS Manufacturing Commitment

ALTIS will at all times maintain sufficient manufacturing capacity and commit sufficient resources to meet [*] of the current quarter of ADESTO’s orders and [*] of ADESTO’s forecasts for WAFERS provided by ADESTO as set forth in Exhibit 1 (section C). If ALTIS at any time believes there is any possibility that it will not be able to meet this capacity requirement, including at any time in the future, ALTIS will immediately notify ADESTO and, at ADESTO’s request, cooperate with ADESTO to mitigate any possible shortfall in capacity. ALTIS’ operational excellence, including YIELD, cycle time, defect management, delivery schedule and other manufacturing parameters will be as set out in Exhibit 1.

ALTIS will manufacture and deliver to ADESTO (a) all EARLY PRODUCTION WAFERS ordered by ADESTO during the term of this agreement, and (b) PRODUCTION WAFERS ordered by ADESTO during the term of this agreement in quantities consistent with ALTIS’ manufacturing commitment above.

The terms and conditions for the manufacture and delivery of such WAFERS are set forth in Exhibit 1 (Altis Wafer Supply Operational Terms & Conditions).

Discontinuation of Fab Process at ALTIS. If ALTIS decides to discontinue or change any fab process used to manufacture CONTRACT PRODUCTS, ALTIS will provide [*]’ prior written notice to ADESTO. During the [*] notice period, ADESTO may place additional orders for the affected CONTRACT PRODUCTS. In addition, on ADESTO’s request, ALTIS will build inventory of WAFERS to support up to [*] of ADESTO’s run rate after the process is discontinued.

B.	ADESTO Purchase Commitment

ADESTO agrees to the following purchase commitments for WAFERS:

(1) ADESTO will order from ALTIS at least the percentage shown in the table below of ADESTO’s total volume for PRODUCTION NON-[*] WAFERS ordered by ADESTO during the [*] period beginning on the effective date of this agreement.

*	Confidential Treatment Requested


For each calendar year, if the average number of NON-[*] WAFERS ordered by ADESTO, per month is...		Then ADESTO will order at least the following percentage from ALTIS
[*]		[*]%
[*]		[*]%
[*]		[*]%
[*]		[*]%
[*]		[*]%

For example, if ADESTO averages [*] PRODUCTION NON -[*] WAFERS per month over a calendar year, then ADESTO commits to order at least [*] of the corresponding number of WAFERS from ALTIS during that calendar year.

(2) ADESTO will order from ALTIS at least [*] of ADESTO’s total volume for PRODUCTION [*] WAFERS which are ordered by ADESTO prior to [*]. After such date, ADESTO’s purchasing commitment for PRODUCTION [*] WAFERS will be as set out in the table in above.

(3) Each of the purchase commitments described above applies only to WAFERS based on CBRAM technology developed with the ALTIS PROCESS and will be evaluated on a calendar year basis, separately for (a) all PRODUCTION [*] WAFERS in the aggregate, and (b) all PRODUCTION NON [*] WAFERS in the aggregate.

ADESTO’s purchase commitment described above is conditioned upon ALTIS meeting and remaining fully in compliance with all of the following conditions:

(a) ALTIS is in full compliance with its commitments and pricing set forth in Article 2A and Article 2D.

(b) WAFERS provided by ALTIS are commercially marketable (as defined by ADESTO product specification and DATA SHEETS) and of a quality consistent with industry standards. This only relates to the manufacturing and/or testing of the WAFERS, but excludes any packaging and final test induced defects.

(d) ALTIS has not otherwise materially breached the terms and conditions of its manufacture and delivery of WAFERS to ADESTO.

If ALTIS breaches any of the above conditions, ADESTO may send written notice to ALTIS. ADESTO’s commitments under this Article 2B will then terminate automatically after [*], if ALTIS has not cured the breach during the [*] period.

ADESTO shall not be in breach of its purchase commitment described above in the following situations:

*	Confidential Treatment Requested

(x) If ALTIS does not have sufficient capacity to meet ADESTO’s demands, then ADESTO may use third party manufacturers to meet ADESTO’s excess demands. For example, if ADESTO’s purchasing commitment and requirement is 1000 NON [*] WAFERS per month and ALTIS can only supply 600, then ADESTO may use third party manufacturers to supply the other 400 without breaching its purchasing commitment, for the period which Altis has indicated that it will not be available to provide the capacity.

(y) If ALTIS does not have the technology node or process requirements requested by ADESTO. For example, if ADESTO requests 90 nm CMOS memory process for a CONTRACT PRODUCT, and ALTIS does not have that process with substantially the same features, such as cell size, etc., then ADESTO may use a third party for that CONTRACT PRODUCT.

(z) If ALTIS cannot offer the prices as set out in Article 2D.

If ADESTO reasonably believes one of the above situations may occur in the future, ADESTO may engage with a third party manufacturer sufficiently far in advance to avoid any delay in ADESTO’s product plans.

C.	Third Party Manufacturer.

Once ADESTO has engaged with a third party manufacturer as permitted above, ADESTO may develop that relationship in a manner that ADESTO deems to be commercially reasonable and WAFERS ordered under that relationship will be excluded from the calculation to determine whether ADESTO has met its purchase commitment. ADESTO is not obligated to revert back to ALTIS even if ALTIS later remedies the original condition that permitted ADESTO to engage with the third party manufacturer, except for a capacity shortfall that is remedied by ALTIS within [*].

Pricing

Pricing for PROTOTYPE LOT and EARLY PRODUCTION WAFERS will be determined by the JDA.

For all PRODUCTION NON [*] WAFERS, ALTIS will offer to ADESTO pricing that corresponds to the market conditions for the applicable product and that will be no greater than [*]% higher than the INDUSTRY AVERAGE PRICE. “INDUSTRY AVERAGE PRICE” for a WAFER is determined as follows. If ADESTO has purchased or is purchasing the same or similarly complex WAFERS in similar volumes and quality standards from other leading third party manufacturers during the same calendar quarter, then the INDUSTRY AVERAGE PRICE will be the average of the actual prices for the orders placed by ADESTO during the calendar quarter. If not, but ADESTO has received price quotations for the same or similarly complex WAFERS in similar volumes and quality standards from other leading third party manufacturers during the same calendar quarter, then the INDUSTRY AVERAGE PRICE will be the average of the price quotations received during the calendar quarter. For the avoidance of doubt, other leading third party manufacturers are TSMC, UMC, Global Foundries, Tower/Jazz and like foundries in terms of quality, yield, defect density and pricing. If not, then the PARTIES will cooperate in good faith to estimate an INDUSTRY AVERAGE PRICE based on available

*	Confidential Treatment Requested

information, including for example data from market analysts for TSMC, UMC, Global Foundries, Tower/Jazz and like foundries price quotations. Third party prices and price quotations will not be increased to account for ALTIS special processes, know-how. IP contributions or CBRAM processing capabilities. In terms of schedule, for NON [*] WAFERS, prices are negotiated one quarter prior to the PRODUCTION WAFER starts and defined as annual prices according to the yearly forecasted volume. In order to access to a specific yearly volume price, a Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) per order shall apply. On a quarterly basis. ADESTO and ALTIS will review the actual ordered quantities versus the expected yearly forecast. In case of deviation greater than [*]%, ALTIS reserves the right to revisit the prices for current and future PRODUCTION WAFERS.

[*].

Pricing for WAFER test (if any) are described in Appendix 2.

All prices are quoted in US dollars.

Cancellation Fees. If the production or delivery of WAFERS is cancelled by ADESTO within the manufacturing cycle, a cancellation fee will be payable by ADESTO. [*]:

[*].

ARTICLE 3 - R&D COMPENSATION

ADESTO will pay to ALTIS an [*] non-recurring engineering fee for each year through [*] (the “NON-RECURRING ENGINEERING FEE”) as consideration for research and development expenses incurred by ALTIS. The NON-RECURRING ENGINEERING FEE will be [*].

ARTICLE 4 - PAYMENT TERMS

The prices set forth in this agreement are net of any and all taxes. The PARTY with the payment obligation (“PAYING PARTY”) shall pay or, if the PARTY with the right to receive payment (“PAYEE”) so requires, shall reimburse PAYEE for all taxes in connection with the PAYING PARTY’s payment obligation. If any withholding or similar tax must be paid under the laws of any country outside of the U.S. based on the payments to PAYEE in this agreement, then PAYING PARTY will pay such taxes and such taxes shall not be deducted from the payments to PAYEE hereunder. The amounts shown in this agreement are the net amounts to be received by PAYEE, after the payment of any such taxes. All invoices shall be due and payable [*] [to be discussed] net after the date of reception of invoice by wire transfer to the account designated on the invoice. In case of late payment, the PAYEE may charge [*]% interest per month or the maximum delay interest allowed by law, whichever is lower.
