SUPPLIER shall purchase all Components for Products solely from suppliers listed on BUYERs most current approved vendor list (the AVL) as provided by BUYER to SUPPLIER as updated by BUYER from time to time. Any purchases made from suppliers not listed on the AVL or contrary to BUYERs written instructions must be approved by BUYER in advance in writing. BUYER agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to have BUYERs approved vendors on the AVL extend to SUPPLIER the same pricing such vendor extends to BUYER, but solely for purchases of Components to be used in the manufacture of Products made under this Agreement. BUYER may assist SUPPLIER in securing certain long Lead-time Components for a Product. Such assistance may include placing orders for long Lead-time Components directly with the manufacturer, providing written authorizations for the purchase of certain Components in short supply or issuing advance Purchase Orders. For purchases of Components, BUYER shall receive all rebates, discounts and other price reductions, monetary and non-monetary, and in any way relating to such Components purchases in proportion to such purchases. Should an audit determine non-compliance with the obligations in this Section 6.1.1, the parties agree that BUYER will be entitled to a refund of the amount of the determined non-compliance and costs of audit. [***].
6.1.2 Procurement Policy: SUPPLIER will purchase all Components to meet the latest approved Build Plan. BUYER shall not be liable for any purchased Components unless pre-approved by BUYER in writing other than the Build Plan. As a guideline, SUPPLIER will not transform Components into a non-returnable condition (e.g., programming of flash memory, tape and reeling Components supplied in trays) at any Approved Manufacturing Location in excess of the quantity necessary to meet the Product cycle times according to Exhibit L attached hereto. Exceptions will be granted for items that are packaged in large quantities and are considered non-cancellable, nonreturnable by the SUPPLIER once the packaging is opened or a piece is consumed. [***]. BUYER agrees that within the Products being manufactured, there are standard parts, non-standard parts and non-cancellable, non-returnable parts. BUYERs maximum liability for standard parts will be to the Build Plan or the Components Lead-time whichever is less, and which cannot be returned for credit or consumed on any other of the SUPPLIERs manufactured products, with the exception of items that are packaged in large quantities and such large package quantities must be approved by BUYER in writing. BUYERs maximum liability for non-standard parts will be to the Build Plan or the Components Lead-time whichever is less plus any Components held in VMI which cannot be returned for credit or consumed on any other of the SUPPLIERs manufactured products, plus Components on-order within the Component Lead-time cancellation window (SUPPLIER will use best efforts to cancel or mitigate BUYERs exposure). BUYERs maximum liability for non-cancellable, non-returnable parts will be to the inventory on-hand plus the total quantity on-order. Each product-specific Statement of Work will identify any requirements that deviate from these guidelines. BUYER will issue purchase orders to the SUPPLIER to replace the forecast [***].
6.1.3 Material Management. SUPPLIER will, at a minimum, at no additional cost to Buyer, comply with the following obligations to ensure good Component material management for the Products: (a) ensure Component level failure analysis is performed by the vendor; (b) expedite Component returns, failure analysis and corrective actions regarding defective Components with the vendors and promptly communicate this information to BUYER; (c) actively work with vendors to reduce Component Lead-time and costs; (d) address poor Component yields with vendors and promptly provide analysis and corrective plans regarding same to BUYER; and (e) provide regular performance feedback to vendors, with a copy to BUYER. SUPPLIER will not use Components procured for BUYER in any other customer products without advance written approval from BUYER.

MANUFACTURING AND PURCHASE AGREEMENT
6.1.4 Allocation of Resources. SUPPLIER will notify BUYER promptly whenever SUPPLIER identifies a reasonable likelihood that there is or will be a capacity constraint that adversely affects SUPPLIERs ability to meet the Build Plan (Capacity Constraint). During any period of Capacity Constraint, SUPPLIER agrees, at a minimum, to allocate capacity to BUYER under whichever of the following formulas would give BUYER the greatest quantity of Products: (i) in proportion to BUYERs percentage of capacity used of all of SUPPLIERs customer manufacturing capacity for the previous two (2) calendar months; (ii) in proportion to BUYERs percentage of capacity, as set forth in applicable Build Requests, of all of SUPPLIERs customers forecasts for manufacturing capacity; or (iii) any other more favorable allocation formula which SUPPLIER utilizes with any other customer. SUPPLIER will not change the program management resources without advanced notification in writing to BUYER and not without BUYERs approval. In the event that a change to any program management resource is required, BUYER will have the ability to approve any new members before they are assigned to the account.
6.1.5 Vendor Managed Inventory. SUPPLIER shall establish and properly manage a Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) program whereby suppliers will deliver Components to a VMI location for SUPPLIERs withdrawal as needed. SUPPLIER shall execute agreements with suppliers, on terms mutually acceptable to BUYER and SUPPLIER, to ensure the proper delivery to and handling of Components at the VMI location. SUPPLIER shall use diligent efforts to ensure that [***] of the total number of BUYER controlled Components for each Product manufactured hereunder are managed under a VMI program [***] executing any Statement of Work associated with this Agreement. In no event shall BUYER have any liability for any Components placed in the VMI location, including, without limitation due to shrinkage, unless BUYER gives prior approval on a case-by-case basis, in writing, that liability is accepted. Such VMI programs may be set forth in separate VMI agreements, as applicable, if desired by the parties.
6.2 Build Plans
6.2.1 Build Plan. SUPPLIER shall reserve for BUYER capacity to manufacture the quantity and type Products specified in each Build Plan and shall have available the extra capacity for increases within the flexibility matrix as described below.
6.2.2 Terms. All Build Plans and Purchase Orders for Products placed by BUYER hereunder and Build Plans agreed upon by the parties shall be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of BUYERs Purchase Order, a Build Plan, SUPPLIERs acknowledgment or other written communications, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail. In the event of a conflict between the terms in a Purchase Order and those in a Build Plan, the terms of the Purchase Order shall prevail.
6.3 Flexibility. Changes in the quantity of units of a particular Product ordered by BUYER shall be provided by written or electronically dispatched notice from BUYER. SUPPLIER shall notify BUYER of acceptance of change in writing [***]. Failure of SUPPLIER to confirm BUYERs change [***] shall constitute acceptance. [***]. SUPPLIER will accept all increases or decreases in Purchase Order quantities, without additional charges (subject to installed capacity restraints according to the Product Capacity schedule attached hereto as Exhibit M), within the flexibility matrix set forth below (unless otherwise set forth in Exhibit C):
Percent Increase or Decrease from Purchase Order | ||||
Number of Weeks Until Delivery Date | Quantity | |||
[***] | [***] | |||
[***] | [***] | |||
[***] | [***] |
If there are extra costs to SUPPLIER to fulfill orders for quantities in excess of the above flexibility matrix, SUPPLIER will promptly determine the extra costs in good faith, inform BUYER in writing of such extra costs and how they were calculated, and obtain BUYERs prior written approval before fulfilling such orders. If a BUYER order cancellation causes inventory to exceed the excess inventory criteria set forth herein the inventory policy set forth in Section 6.4.1.1 applies to those items.

MANUFACTURING AND PURCHASE AGREEMENT
6.4 Reschedule or Cancellation of Delivery. BUYER shall be permitted to cancel or reschedule delivery of Products as within the parameters of the flexibility terms in Section 6.3 above and otherwise as set forth below subject to the terms specified herein. BUYER shall be entitled to request a reschedule of delivery of Products that are in a Build Plan or WIP at any time. SUPPLIER shall accommodate a request to expedite the ship date. [***].
6.4.1 Effect of Cancellation/Reduction of Products under a Purchase Order. If BUYER should cancel or reduce the quantity of products ordered in a Purchase Order (whether in whole or in part) for any reason, and such cancellation is a net reduction to the total open order position, [***], then BUYERs maximum liability to SUPPLIER for such cancelled Purchase Order (or portion thereof) shall be no more than: (i) a combination of partially assembled units of the Product, within published Product Cycle Times in Exhibit L and whose manufacture or assembly is irreversible, such as completed surface-mount manufacture, for which BUYER shall pay reasonable and actually incurred costs, not to exceed the Purchase Order price for the Product based on level of completion (i.e., cost to manufacture); and (ii) all custom or non-cancellable, nonreturnable, MOQ and approved long Lead-time Components that are not consumed [***] and have no further demand, the BUYER shall pay [***] of SUPPLIERs purchased cost; provided, that the applicable Components were approved for purchase by BUYER based on Lead-times in conjunction with the Build Plan and agreed to in writing as part of a special inventory buy relating to MOQ, buffer stock or other exceptions. The calculation described in the immediately prior sentence shall be made as of the date of BUYERs notice of cancellation or reduction. SUPPLIER acknowledges responsibility to minimize BUYERs liability [***] to stop the manufacture of outstanding cancelled orders and to cancel the orders SUPPLIER has with vendors for related Components immediately upon receipt of BUYERs notice. Provided SUPPLIER has taken the foregoing measures, BUYER agrees to pay the applicable cancellation fees described herein in full satisfaction of its liability for such cancellation. Upon BUYERs request, SUPPLIER shall make available to BUYER for inspection and audit any and all relevant information in support of SUPPLIERs claim for reimbursement.
6.4.1.1 Excess Inventory Owing to BUYER Cancellations.
6.4.1.1.1 Obsolete Inventory. BUYER and SUPPLIER will conduct a formal assessment of SUPPLIERs inventory as defined in the Joint Services Agreement. If BUYER has cancelled an order for a particular Product under a Purchase Order because it will discontinue to utilize SUPPLIER as a manufacturer of that Product or because of an engineering change initiated by BUYER, then SUPPLIER must make any claims for reimbursement to BUYER within thirty (30) days, otherwise such claims will be deemed waived by SUPPLIER. BUYER shall have thirty (30) days to evaluate SUPPLIERs claim made pursuant to this Section and to request any adjustments. The parties shall negotiate in good faith the amount of the reimbursement. Once the parties have agreed upon the reimbursement amount, BUYER shall issue a purchase order for the sum of the agreed upon reimbursement amount for such obsolete inventory within ten (10) Business Days from the date of the agreement on the reimbursement amount. The parties agree to meet monthly to review any open claims regarding Obsolete Inventory.
6.4.1.1.2 Other Inventory. When BUYER cancels or reduces an order for a particular Product under a Purchase Order for reasons other than the discontinuance of SUPPLIER as a manufacturer of the Product or because of an engineering change initiated by BUYER, SUPPLIER agrees to issue a final written claim within thirty (30) days of such cancellation. If approved custom, non-cancellable, nonreturnable, MOQ, or long Lead-time Components purchased in accordance with the agreed upon Build Plan and the terms of this Agreement for these Products (Excess Materials) remain in SUPPLIERs inventory for [***] following cancellation or reduction of an order, upon the execution of this Agreement, for a particular Product under a Purchase Order, then BUYER will purchase the Excess Materials and may elect to store them at SUPPLIER and pay SUPPLIER a storage fee based on the actual space required at then current quarters quoted warehouse space cost.
Once the Excess Materials have been stored at SUPPLIER for an excess [***], BUYER will use reasonable efforts to disposition the Excess Materials [***].
6.5 Transfer of Inventory to Other Manufacturers. SUPPLIER understands and agrees that BUYER may use other manufacturers, including BUYER manufacturing, for the Products in addition to SUPPLIER. SUPPLIER will promptly transfer its inventory of Components for unfilled Purchase Orders to such other manufacturers as required by BUYER. SUPPLIER also agrees to sell the Components then-currently in SUPPLIERs inventory to BUYERs designated manufacturer at a cost not to exceed the actual purchase price plus Indirect Support Cost. BUYER also agrees to pay for transportation of equipment and/or materials to the new manufacturing facility at cost.

7.2 Periodic Price Reviews. SUPPLIER and BUYER shall meet at least once during each BUYER fiscal quarter (BUYERs fiscal year is July through June), unless SUPPLIER and BUYER agree that such price reviews be conducted monthly, in which case the parties shall meet at least once each calendar month, to review prices of each Product. Prices will be adjusted to reflect (i) changes to the costs of the Products (other than Component costs), which will be calculated in accordance with the cost model in Exhibit C, and (ii) changes in the costs of Components, which will be passed through to BUYER in a manner consistent with Section 7.3 below.
7.3 Implementation of Cost Reductions. Each party shall be responsible for actively taking steps to reduce the cost of the Products, as agreed upon by the parties during the periodic price reviews. With regard to Components, BUYER shall notify SUPPLIER of price changes for Components that BUYER has negotiated with its Component supplier(s), and may revise its instructions to SUPPLIER regarding quantities and sources of supply from time to time as permitted herein. SUPPLIER agrees to implement such price changes within one (1) week of receiving notice from BUYER, subject to mutual agreement on the impact of such price change as it pertains to revaluation of on-hand and on-order Components, and adjust its outstanding Purchase Orders and Build Plans and sources of supply as soon as possible and BUYER agrees to buy down the inventory where Components prices have decreased based on approved implementation plan from BUYER. At the agreed upon date for implementation of the price change, SUPPLIER will reconcile shipment and material revaluation at the end of the effective quarter. If BUYER requests that SUPPLIER implement a price change in a then-current quarter where depletion of the existing inventory of Components at the previous price will not occur in the then-current quarter, BUYER must immediately provide SUPPLIER with a revaluation purchase order for the difference in price. SUPPLIER must obtain BUYERs prior written approval before purchasing Components contrary to BUYERs instructions. The split for sharing of cost reductions is shown in the following table:
Benefits from Cost Reduction (after | ||||

[***] | [***] | [***] |
BUYER shall have the option at any time to work with SUPPLIER to revise costs to reflect supplier cost reductions for Components or increase coverage on a forward-looking basis. Components that have already been received by SUPPLIER that are affected by SUPPLIER cost reductions or increase coverage shall be addressed via the cost adjustment process set forth herein.
7.4 Committed Cost Reductions. BUYER will own the BOM and provide SUPPLIER with pricing, approved suppliers, and split percentages (for multi-sourced Components) for BUYER controlled components on the BOM. For SUPPLIER Controlled Components, BUYER will provide SUPPLIER with approved suppliers but will leverage SUPPLIERs negotiated pricing for those parts on BUYERs approved supplier list. The list of SUPPLIER Controlled Components will be reviewed between the parties quarterly and may be subject to change at the sole discretion of BUYER. SUPPLIER and BUYER will mutually agree to minimum percentage cost takedown targets each quarter for all then current SUPPLIER Controlled Components. BUYER will work in good faith to support SUPPLIER in evaluating and qualifying SUPPLIER-suggested alternate sources of supply. For new products, BUYER and SUPPLIER may agree to greater quarterly cost takedowns and this will be specified in each Statement of Work.
