THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT GOVERN ALL SPOT ORDERS, AND ANY TERMS CONTAINED IN PRE-PRINTED FORMS, SUCH AS PURCHASE ORDER FORMS FOR SPOT ORDERS, ARE VOID AND OF NO EFFECT.

(b)    Supplier’s Rejection of a Spot Order. If Supplier cannot accept a Spot Order, Supplier must notify Lucid and propose alternative terms acceptable to Supplier. If any of Supplier’s proposed terms are acceptable to Lucid, Lucid will issue a revised Spot Order containing such acceptable alternative terms. EACH OF LUCID'S SPOT ORDERS EXPRESSLY LIMIT ACCEPTANCE TO THE TERMS OF EACH SUCH SPOT ORDER AND ANY ADDITIONAL OR DIFFERENT TERMS CONTAINED IN SUPPLIER'S FORMS OR OTHERWISE PRESENTED BY SUPPLIER ARE REJECTED UNLESS EXPRESSLY AGREED UPON BY LUCID IN A REVISED SPOT ORDER. THIS GTC SHALL SERVE AS NOTICE OF LUCID’S OBJECTIONS TO SUPPLIER’S ADDITIONAL OR DIFFERENT TERMS EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUCH TERMS ARE CONTAINED IN A REVISED ORDER ISSUED BY LUCID.

(c)    Cancellation of Spot Orders by Lucid. Lucid may not cancel all or part of any Spot Order accepted by Supplier in accordance with Section 1.1(a) without Supplier’s written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(a)    General. Production Orders specify the agreed price and overall estimate of Lucid’s needs for the period stated therein and are provided for Supplier’s planning purposes. Production Orders issued within the flexibility set forth in the applicable production pricing agreement are binding on both Parties. For the avoidance of doubt, Supplier will not, without Supplier’s written consent, be bound by any Production Orders, forecasts or Releases indicating volume that exceeds, falls below, or otherwise deviates from the flexibility set forth in the applicable production pricing agreement. Production Orders will contain certain commercial terms such as quantity and delivery schedules agreed to between the Parties.

(b)    Forecasts. Within the first week of each month, Lucid will provide to Supplier, on a monthly basis, a twelve (12) month rolling forecast of its projected Goods requirements based on the applicable production pricing agreement and Production Order. Lucid may vary or cancel any forecasted purchases subject to the flexibility set forth in the applicable production pricing agreement and Production Order. Except as stated in a production pricing agreement, any forecast is a non-binding estimate, and Lucid is not obligated to purchase any quantities specified in the forecast unless and until Lucid delivers to Supplier a Release specifying the quantity of Goods and shipment date. Except as otherwise agreed in the applicable production pricing agreement, Supplier shall maintain, at the time just before each shipment, adequate volume of finished Goods to meet the quantities required during the next five weeks plus one week of either work in progress or finished Goods.

(c)    Releases. At least [***] weeks, or such other period stated in the applicable production pricing agreement or otherwise agreed between the Parties in writing, before the date that Goods are required to be shipped to Lucid, Lucid will issue a Release based on the applicable forecast. Releases conforming to the applicable forecast are binding on both Parties.

(d)    Cancellation of Releases by Lucid. Subject to Lucid’s firm take and payment obligations under applicable production pricing agreements, Lucid may reschedule or cancel all or any portion of any Release at any time upon written notice to Supplier and Supplier’s written consent thereto, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and which may be via an electronic communication including via EDI.

Lucid shall be permitted to return quantities in excess of Lucid’s Releases (or accepted Spot Orders, if no Release exists), at Supplier’s expense. Neither Party may change the delivery dates or direct temporary suspension of scheduled shipments without the other Party’s written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided that, in the case of a good faith change request from a Party for logistical or other operational purposes, the Parties shall discuss such request in good faith.

2.2.     Constraint or Delay. If Supplier has reason to believe its ability to deliver Goods or Services is or will be constrained (including for reasons of quality, labor disputes or otherwise), Supplier shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) immediately notify Lucid, informing Lucid of the cause of the anticipated delay and its plan of action to minimize the delay, and (ii)  make, at its expense, a reasonable supply of Goods sufficient to meet its future obligations under this Agreement. Supplier will use its commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the issue promptly. Supplier will confirm all of its oral communications immediately in writing. In addition, during the delay, Supplier will use its commercially reasonable efforts to fulfill Lucid’s Releases and Spot Orders before fulfilling orders of other customers to the extent such other customer’s needs are for the same or similar Goods as ordered by Lucid or would require resources that could otherwise be used to fulfill accepted Spot Orders, and Releases.
