a. Supply of Graphene and Graphite Products. G3 shall provide, or cause to be provided by the G3 Designees, to the Customer and the Customer Designees, and the Customer shall, and shall cause the Customer Designees to, purchase from G3 or the G3 Designees, the Graphene and Graphite Products set forth on Schedule B (as same may be amended from time to time by G3).

b. License of G3 Intellectual Property.

3. Pricing.

a. Pricing of Graphene and Graphite Products. Customer shall pay G3 or the applicable G3 Designee for Graphene and Graphite Products ordered during the Term in accordance with the prices set forth on Schedule B or as specified from time to time, as applicable, in each case subject to the terms of this Agreement. Prices for Graphene and Graphite Products shall exclude all Taxes. The Customer shall be responsible for all other Taxes with respect to the Graphene and Graphite Products. G3 covenants and agrees that pricing for the Graphene and Graphite Products pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall be equal to or lower than the prices G3 charges for the Graphene and Graphite Products to other customers for the Graphene and Graphite Products in substantially the same volume and under the same terms.

An updated list of prices on Schedule B shall be provided to Customer no less frequently than on an annual basis.

4. Exclusivity.

Each Purchase Order will provide in reasonable detail (including product numbers if applicable) the type of product, price, required date of receipt and quantity of Graphene and Graphite Products and any other information as is reasonably deemed necessary by G3 (the foregoing, “Required Purchase Order Terms”). Other than with respect to any Required Purchaser Order terms, the terms of any Purchase Orders, acceptances, correspondence, memoranda, listing sheets, or documents forming part of any order or acceptance for Graphene and Graphite Products during the Term shall not govern any transaction under this Agreement; rather the terms of this Agreement shall govern and prevail, and any conflicting and/or additional terms and conditions of any such documents shall be deemed deleted and shall not be binding upon the Parties.

b. Lead Times.

6. Invoices & Payment.

a. G3 or an applicable G3 Designee shall invoice Customer for Graphene and Graphite Products at the time of shipment.

In the event that any amount due hereunder is not paid when due, such amount shall accrue interest from the date due at a rate of one and one-half percent (1-1/2%) per month; provided, however, that in no event shall such rate exceed the maximum legal annual interest rate. The payment of such interest shall not limit any Party from exercising any other rights it may have as a consequence of such late payment.

7. Disputed Invoices. In the event of a good faith dispute regarding any fees for Graphene and Graphite Products delivered to Customer hereunder, Customer shall pay the fees that are not in dispute within the applicable payment term and shall provide written notice of the dispute to G3 within thirty (30) days of receipt of the invoice. Such notice shall identify the disputed charges, including an explanation of the basis for the dispute, and a proposed resolution.

9. Acceptance of G3 Products; Right to Inspect. Customer or a Customer Designee may reject and refuse to pay for Graphene and Graphite Products that have been damaged during storage or handling prior to being delivered to Customer or its designee, or are otherwise not in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Graphene and Graphite Product specifications); provided, that, Customer must notify G3 or the applicable G3 Designee in writing of any Graphene and Graphite Products it elects to reject, and a reasonable description regarding the basis for such rejection, within five (5) business days of the date of delivery. G3, in its sole discretion, may either refund to Customer the cost of the rightfully rejected Graphene and Graphite Products or replace rightfully rejected Graphene and Graphite Products at G3’s expense (and any such replacement also would be subject to the terms hereof). The Customer shall hold all rejected Graphene and Graphite Products in a secure and safe manner for inspection by G3 or its representatives. In the event that G3 requests that rejected Graphene and Graphite Products be returned to G3, G3 shall reimburse the Customer for the reasonable and documented costs incurred by Customer to return such Graphene and Graphite Products. Such refund or reimbursement shall be made within ten (10) days after G3s’ receipt of the returned Graphene and Graphite Products and completion of its inspection consistent with G3’s then current practices and terms for accepting rejected Graphene and Graphite Products.

A Party’s consent to, or approval of, any act requiring such consent or approval shall not be deemed to render unnecessary the obtaining of such consent or approval of any subsequent act.

i. No Third-Party Beneficiaries.
