Maxim will provide a blanket PO that will reflect the wafers start plan and the Supplier will issue invoices for aggregated wafers once a week. This will not change Maxim’s minimum purchase commitment and the supplier commitment to delivery as set forth in Sections 4.1 and 8.3. The Parties will make their best efforts to implement a commercial system that will enable the procedure defined in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 above.

Before the [***] of the Closing Date, the Parties will review their procedures with respect to forecasts, issuance of Purchase Orders, acknowledgement and general course of business. The Parties may mutually revise the procedures set forth herein in order to allow the Plant to ramp products of other customers.

Epidemic Defects. For the purposes of this Agreement, an “Epidemic Defect” will be considered to exist when [***] of the Wafer Population (as defined below), or [***], whichever is greater, exhibits a substantially similar failure that is shown through root cause analysis to have been based on the same failure that is attributable to Supplier that is due to one or more similar material defects in materials and/or workmanship, product recalls or safety defects.  “Wafer Population” shall mean production Wafers that are fabricated in the same technology node during any [***]. If at any time during the Term and directly attributable to Supplier, an Epidemic Defect occurs, then, in addition to the remedies set forth in Sections 7.1 and 7.2 and subject to any other rights or remedies under this Agreement, Supplier shall, within [***] of Maxim notifying Supplier of such Epidemic Defect, provide a plan of action to correct such Epidemic Defect (the “Plan of Action”), which shall include [***]. Maxim shall then accept or reject such Plan of Action and in the case of rejection, shall provide a reasonably detailed explanation for such rejection. Maxim may not unreasonably reject the Plan of Action. If Maxim accepts the Plan of Action, Supplier shall carry out such Plan of Action. If Maxim rejects such Plan of Action, the Parties shall define a joint Plan of Action together. The Parties agrees that [***]. Supplier and Maxim will engage in good-faith discussions regarding any Epidemic Defects. [***].

The Price and the compensation for silicon raw material [***] is and shall be Supplier’s sole consideration under this Agreement for any Wafers. [***]. Maxim shall provide the Supplier with special materials required for the Manufacturing of Wafers, including [***] for the amount in excess of historic usage.

All Prices under this Agreement are, and shall be invoiced and paid in, U.S. dollars. If and to the extent that Maxim requests Services other than Manufacturing from Supplier (e.g., tapeout, engineering experiments, design, and other NRE services), and the Parties agree on the provision of such Services and the compensation therefor in a written agreement signed by each Party through its authorized representative, the agreed-upon compensation for such Services are in addition to the Price, and in addition to Maxim’s take or pay obligation set forth in this Agreement.

If Maxim purchases and is supplied Wafers during any calendar quarter in a given year in such quantity corresponding to Moves that is less than the Quarterly Minimum Quantity for such calendar quarter (the difference between the quantity of such Moves and the Quarterly Minimum Quantity for such calendar quarter being referred to herein as “Excess Underload Quantity”, and Excess Underload Quantity multiplied by the Price-per-Move applicable to such calendar quarter being referred to herein as “Excess Underload Payment”), Maxim shall pay the Quarterly Minimum Payment owed under this Agreement for such calendar quarter [***].

Notwithstanding the foregoing, as long as Supplier materially meets its obligation to deliver purchased Wafers in no less than quantities ordered by MIPI from Supplier in accordance with the minimum supply obligation under Section 4.1 and the Manufacturing Requirements, Maxim must comply with the payment obligation under the terms of the take or pay agreement herein during each year equal to the applicable Quarterly Minimum Payment multiplied by four (4), and in the event that any amount of such payment owed is not satisfied, Maxim shall pay the deficit amount to Supplier within thirty (30) days of issuance of the relevant invoice therefor.

[***].

Notwithstanding the foregoing of this Section 8.3 and Section 3.4, if the average cycle time (over a calendar quarter) in the Term exceeds the average cycle time at the Plant before the Closing Date [***], the Quarterly Minimum Payments, and the take or pay obligation, of Maxim for each such calendar quarter will be [***] that is [***], without prejudice to other rights and remedies. [***].

Nothing in this Section 8.3 or in Section 4.1 shall affect any right or remedy of Maxim in the event of Supplier’s failure to deliver any ordered Wafers or Supplier’s delivery of any defective Wafers or any other breach of this Agreement by Supplier.

Nothing in this Section 8.3 or otherwise in this Agreement shall obligate Maxim to purchase or take receipt of any Wafers not ordered by Maxim in any Purchase Order to Supplier, without limiting Maxim’s obligation to pay the amounts owed and due under the take or pay agreement in this Section 8.3.

General Support. During the Term, and at no additional cost to Maxim, Supplier shall provide Maxim with reasonable technical support, including by telephone and email, to answer questions and diagnose problems relating to the Wafer. In the event that Supplier needs to send a support technician to Maxim’s facility, if reasonably required, in connection with its support obligation under this Section 9.1, Maxim will reimburse Supplier for all reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred by Supplier in connection therewith, provided that such costs and expenses are preapproved by Maxim in writing.

The Recipient and its representatives will cooperate fully with Discloser to obtain any such protective order or other remedy. If Discloser elects not to seek, or is unsuccessful in obtaining, any such protective order or other remedy in connection with any requirement that Recipient disclose Confidential Information, then Recipient may disclose such Confidential Information only to the minimum extent required.

Reproduction and Ownership. Confidential Information shall not be reproduced or used in any form or for any purpose except as required to implement this Agreement. Any reproduction by Recipient of any of Discloser’s Confidential Information shall remain the property of Discloser and shall contain any and all confidential or proprietary notices or legends which appear on the original, unless otherwise authorized in writing by the other Party.

During any Force Majeure event, Maxim’s obligations under Section 8.3 shall be suspended. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any delay extends for a period of more than [***], or any agreed upon extension, Maxim shall have the right to procure Wafers from another supplier in order to meet its Customer requirements, but without limiting Maxim’s rights related to a Force Majeure-based Change Event under the Asset Purchase Agreement.
