REDACTED – OMITTED MATERIAL HAS BEEN SEPARATELY FILED WITH THE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 24b-2 OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED, AND IS DENOTED HEREIN BY *****

In no event shall C&C be liable for incidental, consequential, special, punitive or exemplary damages of any kind, including but not limited to lost profits, loss of business or other economic harm as a result of a default; provided however that if Buyer provides C&C with notice of *****, ***** and other customers’ forecasts and specific orders with express penalties for late delivery, C&C will accept liability for such disclosed penalties in excess of $***** caused by C&C shipments which are over two weeks late from the shipment date for such order which shipped date was confirmed via e-mail from a C&C Vice President and default for product liability as a result of moissanite jewels supplied by C&C.

Buyer shall be deemed in material default under this agreement if buyer fails to pay any material (defined as any amounts over $*****) amounts when due in normal course, as long as said issues are not related to memo agreements, previously entered into oral, written or otherwise, or fails to pay C&C any sums due under any other agreement or otherwise, or if Buyer materially defaults in the performance of any other obligation hereunder and fails to cure such default within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from C&C.
