The Customer desires to engage Flextronics to perform logistics services, including storing Customer’s goods and value-added logistics services at locations managed by Flextronics (the “Services”). Customer acknowledges that Flextronics’s expertise is in providing these Services and that Flextronics’s responsibility related to the Customer’s goods is limited to this extent.

Flextronics will perform the Services as set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement with regard to the goods identified on Exhibit B to this Agreement (the “Goods”). Any Services related to the management and storage of Goods will be provided at Flextronics facilities situated at the locations identified in Exhibit A (each a “Flextronics Facility”).

a Prepayment: Stop Work. If Customer is late with payments under this specific agreement, or Flextronics has reasonable cause to believe Customer may not be able to pay, Flextronics may require prepayment or delay shipments or suspend work until assurances of payment satisfactory to Flextronics are received.

Flextronics will, in good faith, review Customer’s creditworthiness periodically and may provide more favorable terms once it feels it is prudent to do so.

(f) Unless otherwise mutually agreed to by the parties, each party shall allow and participate in discovery as follows:

(g) The Arbitrator shall render an award within six (6) months after the date of appointment, and a condition of the arbitrator’s appointment shall be commitment to comply with this six (6) month period.

(h) Either party may seek arbitral review of the award. Arbitral review may be had as to any element of the award.

(i) This Agreement’s arbitration provisions are to be performed in Denver, Colorado. Any judicial proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the relationship of the parties, including without limitation any proceeding to enforce this section 8.5, to review or confirm the award in arbitration, or for preliminary injunctive relief as set forth in subsection (k), shall be brought exclusively in a court of competent jurisdiction in the county of Denver, Colorado (the “Enforcing Court”). By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party (i) accepts, generally and unconditionally, the exclusive jurisdiction of the Enforcing Court and any related appellate court, and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement, their relationship, or any arbitration relating thereto, (ii) irrevocably waives any objection it may now or hereafter have as to the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court or that such court is an inconvenient forum, and (iii) waives personal service of process and consents to service of process upon it by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, at its address specified or determined in accordance with Section 8.5 hereof, and service so made shall be deemed completed on the third business day after such service is deposited in the mail. Nothing in this Section 8.5 shall affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

(j) Each party shall pay their own expenses in connection with the resolution of Disputes pursuant to this Section 8.5, including attorneys’ fees. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (1) the fees and expenses of the Arbitrator and Arbitration Administrator shall be (A) borne equally by Customer and Flextronics if and to the extent that the arbitration panel determines that such result would be fair and equitable under the circumstances, or (B) borne by Customer and/or Flextronics in inverse proportion to the amount that the arbitration panel’s award in favor of Customer and/or Flextronics bears to the total amount of the items in dispute (for illustration purposes for this Section 8.5 (i) only, (X) if the total amount of items in dispute is $1,000,000.00, and Customer prevails on $500,000.00 as determined by the Arbitrator, Flextronics and Customer shall bear the arbitration panel’s fees and expenses equally, or (Y) if the total amount of items in dispute is $1,000,000.00, and Customer prevails on $250,000.00 as determined by the Arbitrator, Customer shall bear 75% and Flextronics shall bear 25% of the fees and expenses of the arbitrator and the Arbitration Administrator; and (2) the fees and expenses incurred by the prevailing party to enforce this Section 8.5 or the enforcement of any award shall be paid by the other party.

(k) The parties agree that any breach of a party’s confidentiality obligations set forth in this Agreement will result in irreparable injury to the other party for which there is no adequate remedy at law. Therefore, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of such obligations, the non-breaching party will be entitled to seek preliminary injunctive relief in the Enforcing Court or in any Court of competent jurisdiction in the location in which the breaching party conducts its business, without first pursuing such relief in arbitration.

(l) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 8.5 to the contrary, in the event of any Dispute, prior to referring such Dispute to arbitration pursuant to Section 8.5(b) hereof, Customer and Flextronics shall attempt in good faith to resolve any and all controversies or claims relating to such Disputes promptly by

negotiation commencing within ten (10) calendar days of the written notice of such Disputes by either party, including referring such matter to Customer’s then-current President and Flextronics’s then current executive in charge of manufacturing operations in the region in which the primary activities of this Agreement are performed by Flextronics. The representatives of the parties shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place and thereafter as often as they reasonably deem necessary to exchange relevant information and to attempt to resolve the Dispute for a period of four (4) weeks. In the event that the parties are unable to resolve such Dispute pursuant to this Section 8.5 (1), the provisions of Section 8.5(a) through (j) hereof, inclusive, as well as Section 8.5 (n) shall apply.

(m) The parties agree that the existence, conduct and content of any arbitration pursuant to this Section 8.5 shall be kept confidential and no party shall disclose to any person any information about such arbitration, except as may be required by law or by any governmental authority or for financial reporting purposes in each party’s financial statements.

(n) IN THE EVENT OF ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN THE PARTIES, WHETHER IT RESULTS IN PROCEEDINGS IN ANY COURT IN ANY JURISDICTION OR IN ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND HAVING HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT WITH COUNSEL, WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY, AND AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL MATTERS SHALL BE DECIDED BY A JUDGE OR ARBITRATOR WITHOUT A JURY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

8.6. Governing Law.

a. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in all respects in accordance with the domestic laws and regulations of the State of Colorado without regard to its conflicts of laws provisions; except to the extent there may be any conflict between the law of the State of Colorado and the Incoterms of the International Chamber of Commerce, 2000 edition, in which case the Incoterms shall be controlling. The parties specifically agree that the 1980 United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, as may be amended from time to time, shall not apply to this Agreement.

b. The parties acknowledge and confirm that they have selected the laws of the State of Colorado as the governing law for this Agreement in part because jury trial waivers are enforceable under Colorado law.

Regardless of the excuse of Force Majeure, if such party is not able to perform within ninety (90) days after such event, the other party may terminate the Agreement.
