Each Forecast Meeting will establish the NC/NR parts for Arrow to place on order for the forty
(40) day period following the Forecast Meeting (the “NC/NR Period”). This forty (40) day leadtime represents the current estimated leadtime of NC/NR parts for inception to final integration of FORESCOUT appliances, excluding Advantech CTR appliances.

For the avoidance of doubt, any parts listed on a POR that were not identified as NC/NR shall not be purchased by or for Customer unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the Parties’ authorized representatives (email sufficient). In the event that the scheduled bi-weekly Forecast Meeting is not held and/or rescheduled (subject to the Parties’ mutual written agreement (email sufficient)), then Arrow shall be authorized and obligated to purchase the parts for the next pending NC/NR Period identified on the most recent POR without further action by Customer, which in most cases is the next month's forecast, and Customer shall be obligated to purchase such parts as NC/NR.

Arrow will provide to Customer on a monthly basis, within one (1) business day following the end of the relevant month, an accurate inventory aging list identifying FGI and On-Hand Inventory (by Serial Number for FGI) maintained at Arrow’s facility (“Aging Report”). Within one (1) business day following receipt, Customer will review the Aging Report and either (i) indicate its acceptance of the Aging Report provided by Arrow; or (ii) advise of discrepancies identified by Customer. Within two (2) business days following Customer’s receipt of the Aging Report, Customer will provide to Arrow a proposed disposition plan for the undisputed Aged Goods identified in the Aging Report (“Disposition Plan”). Arrow will propose any adjustment to the Disposition Plan and the parties will agree to a revised Disposition Plan no later
than three (3) business days following the end of the relevant month. Following mutual agreement to the Disposition Plan, Customer will send Arrow a purchase order for the applicable Aged Goods against which Arrow will invoice Customer and store such Products, as applicable. Terms of any such payments shall be net sixty (60) days from the date of invoice, payable in U.S. dollars.

24.9 | Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means any information which is disclosed by a party (the “Discloser”) in connection with this Agreement, directly or indirectly, in writing, orally or by drawings or inspection of equipment or software, to the other party (the “Recipient”) or any of its employees |
or agents and that is designated or marked as "confidential" or "proprietary" at the time of disclosure or that, based on the circumstances surrounding the disclosure, the Recipient knows or reasonably should know is considered confidential. Confidential Information shall also include the software and all documents provided with the hardware that contain Customer’s confidential trade secret information. The restrictions on disclosure set forth in this Section shall not apply to Confidential Information which: (i) becomes publicly known without breach of this Agreement; or (ii) the Recipient can show by written records was rightfully in its possession prior to the disclosure by the Discloser or becomes rightfully known to the Recipient without confidential or proprietary restriction from a source other than the Discloser; (iii) is approved for disclosure without the restriction in a written document which is signed by a duly authorized officer of the Discloser, or (iv) is independently developed by the Recipient prior to the disclosure without reference to the Discloser’s Confidential Information. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, this Section 24.9 is intended to cover Confidential Information disclosed by the Disclosing Party and received by Recipient both prior, and subsequent to, the Effective Date hereof.
24.9.1 Obligations. Recipient may use the Discloser’s Confidential Information solely for the purpose of exercising its rights and performing its obligations under this Agreement. Recipient agrees to take the same care with the Discloser’s Confidential Information as it does with its own information of a similar nature, but in no event with less than a reasonable degree of care. Recipient shall limit access to the Confidential Information to those persons having a need to know such information, provided that each such employee and consultant is subject to a written agreement containing confidentiality obligations no less protective than those contained in this Agreement. Recipient may disclose Confidential Information:
(i)insofar as disclosure is reasonably necessary to carry out and effectuate the terms of this Agreement;
(ii)insofar as the Recipient is required by law or legal proceedings to disclose such information provided that the Recipient provides the Discloser with prompt written notice of such requirement to enable the Discloser to seek a protective order; (iii) insofar as disclosure is necessary to be made to the Recipient’s independent accountants for tax or audit purposes; and (iv) insofar as the parties may mutually agree in writing upon language to be contained in one or more press releases. In addition, neither party will
disclose to any third party the terms of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party.
24.10 Entire Agreement; Amendment; Severability; and Waiver. This Agreement represents the entire agreement between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified except in a writing signed by both parties. This Agreement supersedes all proposals or quotations, oral or written, and all negotiations, conversations, or discussions between or among the parties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. When interpreting this Agreement precedence will be given to the respective parts in the following order: (i) an Addendum; (ii) this Agreement; and (ii) any exhibits to this Agreement; and (iv) if purchase orders are used to release product, those portions of the purchase order that are not pre-printed. Any waiver of any provision of this Agreement must be in writing and signed by the party alleged to have waived such provision, and any single waiver will not operate to waive subsequent or other defaults. The unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement will not affect the remaining provisions or any portions thereof.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized representatives as of the day and year first above written.
