Amendment No. 21 to the Nonexclusive Value Added Distributor Agreement

WHEREAS, Cisco and Distributor have previously entered into the Nonexclusive Value Added Distributor

Agreement dated January 22, 2007, as amended (the “Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, Cisco and Distributor would like to amend the Agreement to extend the term of the Agreement and to reflect certain changes;

NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree to amend the Agreement as follows:

3. The Agreement is further amended by deleting Section 5.0 (Shipping and Delivery) in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

4. The Agreement is further amended by deleting Section 7.0 in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

7.2 Price Increases. If Cisco puts into effect a general price increase (the “Price

Increase”) for any Product from the Wholesale Price List, or such other Price List

as Distributor may have ordered from, Cisco will debit Distributor for any

overpayment of backend rebate claims as a result of the Price Increase.

5. The Agreement is further amended by adding new Section 11.4:

6. The Agreement is further amended by deleting Sections 17.1, 17.2, and 17.3 in their entirety, replacing them with the following, and adding new Section 17.4:

17.1 Reports by Cisco. Cisco shall, if requested by Distributor, render monthly reports to Distributor setting forth the separate Product, dollars invoiced for each Product, and total dollars invoiced to Distributor for the month, and such other information as Distributor may reasonably request.

17.2 Record-Keeping and Audit. Distributor will keep full, true, and accurate records and accounts, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, of

each Product or Service distributed, by serial number, including information

regarding compliance with Cisco marketing and sales programs, Software usage,

and export or transfer. Distributor shall make these records available for audit by

or on behalf of Cisco upon seven days’ prior written notice, during regular business

hours, at Distributor’s principal place of business or such other of Distributor’s

locations where Distributor may maintain relevant records. For the purposes of

ensuring compliance with the terms of this Agreement, Distributor shall allow Cisco

access to all relevant premises owned, controlled, or used by Distributor. If Cisco

requires information from an Authorized Channel to which Distributor asserts it has

Resold Cisco Products or Services, Distributor agrees to use all reasonable efforts

to assist Cisco to obtain such information. Distributor will also allow Cisco or its

independent auditors to examine Distributor’s inventories of Product for the

purpose of verifying, to Cisco’s satisfaction, that Distributor is performing its

obligations under this Agreement.

Distributor additionally acknowledges that from time to time Cisco or its

independent auditors may conduct additional specific audits with the purpose of

monitoring and ensuring compliance by Distributor with Cisco’s policies and

applicable laws. Such audits may include, without limitation, investigations in order

to prevent the acquisition, use, promotion or resale of Unauthorized or Non-

Genuine Products. When requested, Distributor shall cooperate with Cisco or its

appointed auditors or investigators, and provide them with accurate and truthful

information. In all cases, Distributor agrees to bear, and/or promptly repay to

Cisco, all costs, fees and expenses, incurred by Cisco in the performance of any

audit and/or investigation that discloses any breach of this Agreement by

Distributor.

In conjunction with Cisco’s policies, Cisco may perform audits of the Distributor’s

results and balances, including, but not limited to, Point-Of-Service (POS) data

validation, POS recognition timing, physical inventory quantification, and reporting

accuracy. Distributor will work with Cisco or its agent or designate and provide all

appropriate information to conduct such audits.

17.3 Reporting.

Distributor will use best efforts to render daily sales out (point of sale or POS)

reports through the DCA tool or through a mutually agreed upon B2B format,

or as otherwise agreed upon with Cisco. Such reports must be rendered at

least on a weekly basis, or as otherwise agreed upon with Cisco. Detailed

reporting requirements are included in Exhibit K (Detailed Reporting

Requirements), which is attached hereto and incorporated by reference into

the Agreement.

Distributor will use best efforts to provide daily inventory reports in the same

format as sales-out reports. Such reports must be rendered at least on a

weekly basis, or as otherwise agreed upon with Cisco. Detailed reporting

requirements are included in Exhibit K (Detailed Reporting Requirements).

The provisions of Section 7.0 (Price Protection), Section 12.0 (Inventory

Balancing), Section 18.8, and such other provisions expressly set forth in the

attached Exhibits are contingent upon the receipt of regular, timely point-ofsale

(POS) and inventory reports from Distributor. Cisco’s obligation under

these provisions is null and void if the reports required to validate Distributor’s

requests under those provisions are not provided to Cisco at the time of such

request.

17.4 Forecasting. Distributor will provide detailed forecasting information on a weekly, monthly, and quarterly basis on new bookings and POS data.

7. The Agreement is further amended by adding new Section 28.4 as follows:

28.4 Incorrect Payments.

A. In a scenario where rebates were calculated and/or the rebate amount paid incorrectly, Cisco reserves the right to either request that Distributor return the rebate or reduce future rebates accordingly under any program in which Distributor is participating.

B. If bookings made in one quarter are booked or cancelled and credited in a subsequent quarter, those bookings or credits will decrease the total eligible bookings for that quarter and will result in a lower rebate payment. If in a subsequent quarter the total eligible bookings are negative because of bookings or credits, including in situations where rebates have previously been paid, Cisco will require Distributor to return those rebates, or reduce future rebates accordingly.

8. The Agreement is hereby further amended by adding the new Section 29.0 (Distributor Programs) to the Agreement:

29.0 Distributor Programs.

29.1 Invest Track (formerly Distributor Development Investment or DDI). Cisco provides to its distributors marketing development funding through which Cisco will compensate its distributors for mutually agreed upon activities aimed at     the creation of demand for Cisco Products and Services. If approved by Cisco,

marketing and demand-generation activities, partner onboarding and activation,

enablement and training, infrastructure support, and strategic incentives are

eligible to be funded by Cisco under the Invest Track. Cisco will reimburse up to

one hundred percent (100%) of costs for approved activities or milestones.

Distributor agrees to comply with all Invest Track terms and conditions located at:

https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/partners/distributors/distributor-program.html.

Distributor acknowledges and agrees that Cisco may modify or terminate the

Invest Track program at any time, with no less than thirty (30) days’ notice to

Distributor. Invest Track funds may not be available in all theatres and the funding

reserved by Cisco as part of Invest Track may vary by theatre. Cisco will provide

reimbursement to Distributor after Cisco’s receipt and review of the required

supporting documentation. Cisco shall provide the terms and conditions of the

Invest Track program for a particular Territory to Distributor, as applicable.

29.2 Grow Track (formerly Distributor Incentive Rebates or DIR). An incentive program, Grow Track, will be available to support and reward Distributor’s strategic alignment with Cisco. Grow Track is a growth program based on the attainment of key sales, financial, or operational metrics that have been previously agreed upon between Cisco and Distributor. Program payouts will vary by theatre. Distributor agrees to comply with all Grow Track program terms and conditions located at: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/partners/distributors/distributor-program.html.

Distributor acknowledges and agrees that Cisco may modify or terminate the                  Grow Track program at any time, with no less than thirty (30) days’ notice to Distributor;

provided, however, that any Grow Track program previously approved by Cisco

shall remain in full force and effect until completed by Distributor and paid by Cisco.

The Grow Track program may not be available in all theatres. Cisco will make

Grow Track program payouts available to Distributor within thirty (30) days after

determination by Cisco of what Distributor’s actual Grow Track program payout will

be for any given period of time. The Grow Track Program terms and conditions

are available at: https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/partners/distributors/distributorprogram.

html#~grow-track-growing-2t-partners. In order to be eligible for any

Grow Track program payout in APJC or EMEAR, Distributor must meet the

obligations noted in the Seal of Compliance, as well as the requirements outlined

in the APJC Accreditation Playbook of either an Authorized, Accredited, or

Specialized Distributor or the EMEAR Accreditation Playbook of Accredited

Distributor, as applicable.

29.3 Distribution Sales Visibility (“DSV”) Program. Exhibit L (Distribution Sales Visibility Program Terms and Conditions) attached hereto sets out the terms and conditions of Cisco’s DSV program. Distributor must comply with the terms and conditions of the program in order to participate in the program.

29.4 Non-Stocking Order Programs. Distributor agrees that all non-stocking orders placed in the Territory must be transacted under the Net Pricing Program (as defined below) or using Cisco’s Direct Value Add Distributor Program (also referred to as the “CBN” or Channels Booking Neutrality program) as described in Exhibit I.

i. Net Pricing Program. Cisco will make available a program for the purchase by Distributor of Products and Services to sell to Authorized Channels for resale to End Users where the Products will not be held by Distributor (or any other third party) for stocking purposes, as indicated on the applicable purchase order (the “Net Pricing Program”). Cisco will notify Distributor when the Net Pricing Program is available in the Territory.

A. Once the Net Pricing Program is available in the Territory,

Distributor agrees to submit all non-stocking orders via the     Net Pricing Program. Distributor purchases under the Net Pricing

Program will be invoiced at the price listed on the applicable Price

List less any applicable discounts. Orders must include the

applicable Deal ID provided by Cisco. Any and all terms in the

Agreement relating to back-end rebates, price protection,

obsolete product returns, inventory balancing or stock rotation,

and any associated Product return rights do not apply to Products

and Services purchased through the Net Pricing Program. For the

avoidance of doubt, the price invoiced under the Net Pricing

Program is final, and Distributor is not eligible to receive any price

adjustments through back-end rebates on purchases under the

Net Pricing Program.

B. Distributor shall not purchase Product under the Net Pricing

Program for the purpose of stocking or replenishing inventory.

Complete orders can be staged at Distributor’s warehouse for no

more than ninety (90) days but shall be kept physically separate

from inventory ordered outside of the Net Pricing Program.

C. All sales made by Cisco under the Net Pricing Program are final.

In addition, Distributor shall not fulfill Net Pricing Program orders

from Distributor’s inventory.

D. Products ordered by Distributor under the Net Pricing Program

shall be reported separately and not be included in any reporting

of Distributor inventory or Point of Sale reporting. Distributor

agrees to submit to Cisco, upon request, documentation/reports

related to any and all orders (including reporting of Products

ordered under the Net Pricing Program held in Distributor

warehouses for staging and sales-out reports) in the form and at

the time(s) required by Cisco. Cisco reserves the right to request,

and Distributor agrees to promptly furnish, any supporting

documentation related to orders placed under the Net Pricing

Program, including, without limitation, the purchase orders or

purchase contracts between the Distributor and Reseller for the

relevant Product contained in an order. Cisco’s audit rights, as set

forth in the Agreement, apply to purchases made by Distributor

under the Net Pricing Program. If Cisco reasonably believes that

Distributor has used the Net Pricing Program to procure inventory,

or has otherwise abused the Net Pricing Program, Cisco may

immediately terminate Distributor’s participation in the Program.

This termination right shall be in addition to any other rights and

remedies of Cisco under the Agreement.

E. For each order submitted under the Net Pricing Program,

Distributor shall, upon request from Cisco, submit to Cisco copies

of the relevant shipping documents showing Distributor’s

shipment of the Product to either the applicable Authorized

Channel or End User. Cisco acknowledges that, where Distributor

is the importer of record, Distributor may need to perform staging

activities as it relates to Product purchased under the Net Pricing

Program.

F. Cisco will only accept returns for Products purchased via the Net

Pricing Program as described in Section 5.5 (Warranty Support)

of Exhibit B. For the avoidance of doubt, for any returns accepted

by Cisco pursuant to Section 5.5 (Warranty Support) of Exhibit B,

Distributor must provide Cisco with original sales order details, the

serial number, and any other necessary information, so that Cisco

can verify net price accuracy prior to issuing Distributor credit for

the return.

G. Participation in the Program is at Distributor’s expense. Cisco will not be responsible for any costs incurred by Distributor as a result of the Program.

H. To the extent of any conflict between terms elsewhere in the

Agreement and this Section 29.4, this Section 29.4 shall prevail

with respect to the subject matter described herein.

I. Distributor acknowledges and agrees that Cisco may modify or

terminate the Net Pricing Program at any time with no less than

thirty (30) days’ advance notice to Distributor.To the extent that

there is conflict between the Agreement and this Amendment, the

terms of this Amendment shall take precedence over the terms

and conditions of the Agreement with regards to the subject matter

described herein.

9. The Agreement is amended by deleting Exhibit B (Value Added Distributor Support Exhibit) in its entirety and replacing it with new Exhibit B (Distributor Support and Services Resale) as attached to this Amendment.

10. The Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Exhibit H (Distribution to Federal Government Terms) in its entirety and replacing it with new Exhibit H (Distribution to U.S. Federal Government) attached hereto.

11. The Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Exhibit I (Direct Value Add Distributor (“DVAD”) Program Terms and Conditions) in its entirety and replacing it with new Exhibit I (Direct Value Add Distributor (“DVAD”) Program Terms and Conditions) attached hereto.

12. Any terms not defined in this Amendment shall have the meaning stated in the Agreement. All other terms and conditions of the Agreement remain unchanged and in full force and effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have each duly executed this Amendment effective as of the

8.2 Cisco, or its authorized agents, may send reminders to renew expiring Service contracts to Distributor, Authorized Channel or its End User; and upon request by Cisco, Distributor will reconfirm the End User’s identity and service contract numbers of the expiring service contract(s) with the Authorized Channel. Distributor will (i) initiate the renewal process with its

Authorized Channel, who will renew the Service with the End User and forward to Cisco, via Distributor, the completed Purchase Order or (ii) notify Cisco of Authorized Channel’s intent

not to renew Services.

8.3 If, upon 90 days after initial product sale, Cisco has not received a purchase order for the coverage of Services from Distributor, Cisco working with Distributor may contact the End User to arrange for reassigning of the Service contract coverage opportunity for the subject Equipment to another Cisco-authorized reseller

.

8.4 If, upon the expiration date of Cisco services contract for the Equipment, Cisco has not received a Purchase Order for the renewal from Distributor within thirty (30) days, Cisco working with Distributor may contact the End User to arrange for reassigning of the Service contract renewal for the subject Equipment to another Cisco-authorized reseller.

12. Ownership

13. Contracting with U.S. Federal Government

To the extent Services engagements relate to a U.S. Federal Government contract, Cisco’s Services offerings are “commercial item” as that term is defined under FAR 2.101. Cisco offers and/or provides these services upon a competitive basis and in substantial quantities in the commercial marketplace

based upon established market prices for specific tasks performed under standard commercial terms and conditions.

1. Licensee shall mean either End User (in the case of Advanced Services intended for resale to End User) or Authorized Channel, in the case of Collaborative Professional Services.

1. Cisco grants to Licensee a worldwide, non-exclusive and non-transferable license to use for Licensee’s internal business use only: (i) Software provided as a result of Advanced Services, if any (ii) the Deliverables (in object code form if Software), if any, and (iii) Data Collection Tools, if any. With respect to Deliverables provided by Cisco under Collaborative Professional Services, subject to the terms and conditions herein,

Cisco grants to Authorized Channel a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license (a) to use, display, reproduce, modify, and distribute

Deliverables; and (b) create, use, reproduce, and distribute derivative works of the Deliverables. The license herein for Collaborative Professional Services is granted solely for Authorized Channel’s support of End Users during the term of the Agreement and solely for use with Cisco products. This license grant does not include the right to sublicense.

2. This license shall be governed by: (i) the terms and conditions attached to the Software or in the absence of such terms by the license posted at http://www.cisco.com/go/warranty and (ii) this Exhibit and the Agreement.

3. Licensee agrees that it is licensed to use Software: (1) only on Hardware; or (2) in the case of Application Software, on third party hardware, (except as otherwise authorized in the Software Documentation); or (3) in the case of Data Collection Tools, in object code form only, on the Data Collection Tool on which such Software is provided.

4. The license is perpetual, provided Licensee is not in breach of this Attachment. Notwithstanding the above, the license for Data Collection Tools is valid until the earlier of: (i) the expiration or termination of the Advanced Services under which the Data Collection Tool was provided; or (ii) Cisco’s request to Licensee that the Data Collection Tool(s) be returned to Cisco.

5. Except as expressly authorized, Licensee shall (nor permit a third party to): download more than one copy of the Software, copy, in whole or in part, any Software, Deliverable or Data Collection Tool, make error corrections or otherwise modify, decompile, decrypt, reverse engineer, disassemble or otherwise reduce all or any portion of any Software, Deliverable or Data Collection Tool which is software to human-readable form; or transfer, sublicense, rent, lease, distribute, sell, or create derivative works of any Deliverables.

6. When Licensee updates or upgrades a copy of Software to a new release, Licensee shall not use (except for a limited period of parallel testing) the new Software release and the corresponding copy of the previous Software release concurrently. Under no circumstances shall the previous release be re-used or transferred to any other device(s).

7. U.S. Government End User Purchasers. The Software and Documentation qualify as “commercial items,” as that term is defined at Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”) (48 C.F.R.) 2.101, consisting of “commercial computer software” and “commercial computer software documentation” as such terms are used in FAR 12.212. Consistent with FAR 12.212, FAR 52.227-19 Commercial Computer Software—Restricted Rights and DoD FAR Supp. 227.7202-1 through ###-###-####-4, and notwithstanding any other FAR or other contractual clause to the contrary in any agreement into which this Attachment may be incorporated, Customer may provide to Government end user or, if this

Attachment is direct, Government end user will acquire, the Software and Documentation with only those rights set forth in this Attachment. Use of either the Software or Documentation or both constitutes agreement by the Government that the Software and Documentation are “commercial computer software” and “commercial computer software documentation,” and constitutes acceptance of the rights and restrictions herein.

1.0 Distributor shall maintain a separate government sales team, which shall include sales specialists with an understanding of U.S. Government regulations and U.S. Government contract terms and conditions, to support Authorized Channels in the federal government marketplace.

2.0 Distributor shall maintain a configuration facility for systems integration and testing in support of federal government specific contracts and opportunities for Authorized Channels.

3.0 Except as otherwise agreed between the Parties in this Agreement, Distributor will not distribute Products or Services under this Agreement through a General Services Administration (GSA) schedule contract, California Multiple Award Schedule (CMAS), or other schedule contracts. Except as otherwise agreed between the Parties in a separate written agreement, this Agreement shall not be construed by Distributor as a representation that Cisco will furnish supplies needed by Distributor to fulfill any of Distributor’s GSA, CMAS or similar contract obligations under any

schedule contract.

4.0 The federal government contract flowdown provisions set forth in Section 8.0 of this Exhibit are applicable to Purchase Orders for U.S. Federal Government End Users. Cisco does not accept any additional or modified flowdown provisions including but not limited to Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), Department of Defense FAR Supplement, or NASA FAR Supplement provisions,

notwithstanding existence of such provisions on Distributor’s Purchase Orders or supplementary documentation or Cisco’s acceptance of such Purchase Orders or documentation.

5.0 Point-of-Sales (POS) Reports. In addition to the reporting requirements set forth in Section 7.0 of this Agreement, Distributor shall provide the following additional

information in the regular POS reports it submits to Cisco for all sales made to Authorized Channels for resale to the U.S. Federal

Government:

5.1 Authorized Channel contract type (e.g., GSA (non-schedule contract), Indefinite

Delivery/Indefinite Quantity, 8(a));

5.2 End User (Government Agency) name, agency department;

5.3 Government Agency, Cabinet level/specific procuring office;

5.4 Ship to address (street, city, state, country and zip/postal code);

5.5 Prime Federal Government Contract number, when available; and

5.6 Distributor’s invoice number and sales order number to the Authorized Channel.

6.0 Distributor acknowledges that the Trade Agreements Act, 19 U.S.C. Section 2511 et seq., and its implementing regulations governs the ability of the Federal Government to purchase items produced outside the United States and certain designated countries. Distributor acknowledges that not all Cisco items are produced in the United States or designated countries and that only certain items specifically identified by Cisco (“Designated Country Items”) as being produced in the United States or designated countries. If Distributor undertakes to sell items other than Designated

Country Items to the Authorized Channels, Distributor accepts sole responsibility for ensuring that such sales comply with the Federal Government’s requirements.

7.0 Distributor will ensure that prior to providing a quote to an Authorized Channel for a U.S. Federal Government opportunity, that the Authorized Channel requesting the quote is at minimum a Cisco Registered Partner enrolled in the Federal Authorization Program (the “Program”). If the requesting Authorized Channel is not enrolled in the Program, Distributor will require Authorized Channel to complete the enrollment (to include training), prior to providing quote(s) to the Authorized Channel.

8.0 This Agreement pertains to the sale of “commercial items” as that term is defined under FAR 2.101 and FAR Part 12. Notwithstanding any other clause in the prime contract, only those clauses identified in 52.212-5(e) and 52.244-6 are required to be in subcontract agreements for commercial items or commercial components (see further, FAR 12.502(b), 44.402(b)). The most recent version of the following FAR clauses, identified in 52.212-5(e) and 52.244-6 are hereby incorporated by

reference, with the same force and effect as if they were given in full. For purposes of this Agreement, when appropriate in adopting the terminology of all the following FAR clauses, the term“contract’ shall mean this Agreement; the term “Contractor” shall mean Cisco; the term “Government: and “Contracting Officer” shall mean Distributor.

1. The Program is focused on establishing new business practices between Cisco and its distribution base for high-value project-based business, as defined herein. The parties agree that Distributor may participate in the Program in the Territory, subject to the terms and conditions of these Terms and Conditions. Distributor agrees to comply at all times with the then-current DVAD Program (also referred to as the “CBN” or Channels Booking Neutrality program) guidelines and policies published by Cisco

from time to time at https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en_us/partners/distributor/Distribution-CBN-Policyrev201810.pdf.

2. In order to participate in the Program, Distributor must create a separate purchase account, to be used solely for Distributor’s issuance of Purchase Orders (“Orders”) to Cisco, for Cisco-branded Products, under the Program. All invoice and payment transactions related to the Program will occur under this separate purchase account. Further, Distributor shall implement a separate process management system in dealing such Product and shall ensure that all Products ordered under the Program are kept

physically separate from other inventory, including having separate bin locations for easy locating and identification of CBN-ordered products. All pricing for Orders will be based on Cisco’s Price List.

3. Order Qualification Requirements: Each Order submitted under the Program must meet the following criteria:

3.1 The Order must be “deal-based” and placed in its entirety on Cisco as either a single Order or as multiple Orders and must represent a single project. For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, “deal-based” means that the Order is made under an assigned Cisco Deal

ID for a specified Authorized Channel and End User related to a specific project;

3.2 Distributor’s purchases under the Program are limited to the following Cisco offer types:

a. SaaS products restricted from Distribution Sales Visibility (DSV) or the Net Pricing Program;

b. Enterprise Agreements (EAs);

c. Hardware Orders when combined with one or both of the above offer types and where the End User and Authorized Channel are willing to await delivery based on Cisco lead times.

3.3 No transactional claims (back-end rebates via the Grow Track program or any other Cisco rebate program) will be permitted on the CBN Orders. The Order must reflect net-pricing (e.g., discounting to be applied 'up-front' and reflected in net price on order) and must include the applicable Deal ID provided to Distributor by Cisco; and

3.4 The Order must identify and include the relevant End User and Authorized Channel information.

4. Distributor shall not purchase Product under the Program for the purpose of stocking or replenishing inventory. Complete CBN orders can be staged at Distributor’s warehouse for not more than 30 days, but shall be kept physically separate from regular inventory (i.e. inventory ordered outside of the Program). All sales made by Cisco under the Program are final. In addition, Distributor shall not fulfill Program Orders from Distributor’s inventory. For purposes of clarity, any and all terms in the

Agreement relating to price protection, obsolete product returns, inventory or stock balancing, and associated Product return rights do not apply to Product purchased through the Program. Cisco reserves the right to request, and Distributor agrees to promptly furnish, any supporting documentation related to Orders placed under the Program, including, without limitation, the purchase orders or purchase contracts between the Distributor and Authorized Channel for the relevant Product contained

in an Order. If Cisco reasonably believes that Distributor has used the Program to procure inventory, or has otherwise abused the Program, Cisco may immediately terminate Distributor’s participation in the Program. This termination right shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies of Cisco under

the Agreement.

5. Products ordered by Distributor under the Program shall be reported separately and not be included in any reporting of Distributor inventory or Point of Sale (“POS”) reporting. Distributor agrees to submit to Cisco, upon request, documentation/reports related to any and all Program Orders (including reporting

of Products ordered under the Program held in Distributor warehouses and sales-out reports) in the form and at the time(s) required by Cisco. Cisco’s audit rights, as set forth in the Agreement, apply to purchases made by Distributor under the Program.

6. For each Order submitted under the Program, Distributor shall, upon request from Cisco, submit to Cisco copies of the relevant shipping documents showing Distributor’s shipment of the Product to either the applicable Authorized Channel or End User. Cisco acknowledges that, where Distributor is the

importer of record, Distributor may need to perform staging activities as it relates to Product purchased under the Program.

7. Participation in the Program does not entitle Distributor to any of the benefits provided under Cisco’s Channel Programs to Cisco Direct Value Add Resellers (“DVARs”) or any other Authorized Channel.

8. Term: These Terms and Conditions are coterminous with the Agreement. Cisco is under no obligation to develop any kind of program, or modify any ordering processes, as a result of the Program. Participation in the Program is at Distributor’s expense. Cisco will not be responsible for any costs incurred by Distributor as a result of the Program. Distributor further acknowledges and agrees that

Cisco may modify or terminate the DVAD Program at any time, with no less than thirty (30) days advance notice to Distributor.

Point of Sale & Inventory Requirements

Distributor must submit Point of Sale (POS) and inventory via the DCA tool or a mutually agreed upon B2B format, or as otherwise agreed upon with Cisco.

Point of Sale (“POS”) and inventory information must be in the format as shown on the templates posted at the following URL:https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en_us/partners/distributor/pos_inventory_reporting_templates-201810.xlsx

Data must be clean (without foreign characters, extra spaces, etc.) and accurate.

In order for a POS or an Inventory file to be valid, it must be submitted in strict accordance with any and all of the following conditions. Any POS or Inventory not respecting these conditions shall be automatically invalid and thus refused by Cisco.

Detailed POS Requirements

Definition of POS:

In order for POS to be valid and true, it must be invoiced and shipped to a third party (reseller or end user) prior to being submitted. Any Distributor submitting weekly as opposed to daily (such daily reports to be submitted every working day of the week, wherein non-working days are consolidated into the next working day daily report) should ensure that their Monday POS submissions only take into account sales

made between and including the previous Sunday to the previous Saturday.

Submissions:

Deadline (frequency and timeline) for Distributor to submit POS to Cisco should be daily, including claim reference details and End User information, or as otherwise agreed to between local geographies of Cisco and Distributor.

Any and all POS must be submitted by Distributor via Cisco’s DCA tool, as mutually agreed upon locally, or a mutually agreed upon B2B format.

POS Template under the “Submission Template” Link of the DCA tool website should be used to submit the POS data that is provided through the DCA tool, unless the parties have agreed in writing to a variation of such Submission Templates. Any changes to the Submission Templates that are currently in use must be made by mutual written agreement of the parties.

Of the fields in the POS Template, there are both mandatory and conditional fields. Detailed information on Cisco's POS and Inventory required fields can be found here:

https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en_us/partners/distributor/pos_inventory_reporting_templates-201810.xlsx

The end user name and address fields (including city, state, and country) must be populated. Names such as SMB, Dummy, end user, Dealer, or Authorized Channel, not willing, and internal use, etc. will not be accepted and must instead be populated with the correct end user name of where the Cisco Product will be sold, or following Cisco’s specific local POS reporting requirements.

Negative POS:

Negative POS lines must only be submitted for product returns (excluding stock rotation or Dead on Arrival (“DOA”) product) or cancelled sales where POS has previously been submitted. The original invoice number or Original Sales Order number must be provided when there is an RMA, if this information is reasonably available from Distributor. Under no circumstances is negative POS to be submitted for reseller or end user changes unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties. Each

POS submission should be final and should therefore not require any correction. Corrections will only be accepted if the POS transaction date is less than twenty one (21) days old at the time of the request for corrections. Distributor must submit a corrected POS and a negative POS to cancel the previous POS submission that is being corrected.

Negative POS submitted must be valued at the purchase price from Cisco (Wholesale Price List, if applicable) less any rebate claims already received from Cisco for that specific purchase, if this information is reasonably available from Distributor. Distributor agrees to reimburse Cisco for all agreed upon rebate claims previously paid by Cisco to Distributor, associated with Negative POS submissions. Cisco reserves the right to audit the accuracy or the value used in conjunction with Negative POS

submissions. Distributor reserves the right to dispute the accuracy of any audit. Any discrepancies will be handled as part of the specific methodology agreed upon for the applicable country or region.

Distributor-to-Distributor (D2D) transactions:

All POS transactions for which the reseller name field is a distributor or the reseller is reselling to a Cisco distributor are flagged as D2D by Cisco. However, the distributor sourcing from another distributor for the purpose of selling on would be entitled to claim a rebate against this line.

Transactions flagged as D2D are not available for claiming rebates and are not allocated to Cisco Account Managers. This is without prejudice to any Authorized Channel being entitled to source from and resell to any other Authorized Channel.

If a distributor is selling for its own internal use, then the reseller field should mention "distributor internal use” or, as applicable, Distributor’s own name (Distributor should follow local protocol).

Inventory Submissions:

Definition of Inventory:

This includes all inventory held by the distributor as at a particular point in time, which has neither been invoiced to a reseller, nor submitted as POS information to Cisco.

Submissions:

Deadline (frequency and timeline) for Distributor to submit inventory to Cisco should be separately agreed to between local geographies of Cisco and Distributor. Inventory data submissions should, at a minimum, be as frequent as POS data submissions.

Any and all inventory must be submitted by Distributor via Cisco’s DCA tool, or as otherwise agreed upon with Cisco.

Of the fields in the Inventory Template, there are both mandatory and conditional fields. Detailed information on Cisco's POS and Inventory required fields can be found on Cisco's Distribution Central at: https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en_us/partners/distributor/pos_inventory_reporting_templates-201810.xlsx

Penalty for Failure to Submit POS and Inventory Reports:

If Distributor has not submitted Inventory for two weeks running, without providing prior warning to Cisco, Cisco has the right to place a hold on all future rebate payments until full and complete and correct Inventory has been submitted.

Balancing Calculations:

Further to timely submissions of POS and Inventory, Cisco may require Distributor to submit a balancing calculation (otherwise known as inventory reconciliation or inventory roll-forward) at summary level as needed. This will include shipment received, inventory, POS, and returns information for the previous week and should balance with the detail of the Inventory and POS reports submitted

Shipments received:

This should be a total of all shipments received from Cisco, whether logged as Inventory or shipped out directly as back to back orders during the previous week. For D2D transactions, the source vendor would be the initial distributor.

Goods in Transit (Intra Distributor Transfers)

This should be the total of all products removed from the main warehouse's inventory but not yet logged in the branch’s inventory (or products removed from a branch’s inventory and not yet logged in the main warehouse’s inventory, or products removed from one branch’s inventory and not yet logged in another branch’s inventory). This report needs to include all product ID, quantity, Price List, price, purchase order

numbers, sales order numbers, and serial numbers as provided by Cisco.

Rebate Claims Terms and Conditions

In order for a claim to be valid under any current and/or future promotional offer or program, it must be submitted in strict accordance with any, and all of the following

conditions. Any claim not respecting these conditions shall be automatically invalid and thus refused. In such case, no rebate shall be issued by Cisco.

Rebate Claim Submission

Distributor must claim the promotional value as a back end rebate. All rebate claims must be submitted through the DCA tool. In order to be valid, all claims must be submitted to Cisco by the 10th business day of each month, following the month of sale.

All claims submitted to Cisco more than 30 days after the date of sale will be automatically rejected by Cisco and Cisco will have no liability to honor such claim.

End user details must be quoted on POS and all claims submitted.

All POS reports must include serial numbers associated with the serialized products sold, if they exist. Cisco will endeavor to notify distributors at least two weeks in advance of any change to any current and/or future promotional offer or program. Cisco reserves the right to add, modify, change, improve, or discontinue any product or promotion without notice. If Cisco re-instates a promotion, which has previously expired, those sales reported between the promotion end date and the re-instated date will not be eligible for a rebate claim against such promotion.

It is Distributor’s responsibility to realize the risk of placing orders for products to be covered by a specific promotion towards the end of a promotion period. Claims can only be accepted on products that have a POS date prior to the end of the promotional period. If Distributor believes a claim has been rejected in error, Distributor should contact Cisco for assistance.

Claim Rejection

It is Distributor’s responsibility to correct and re-submit any claims that are rejected by DCA because they require correction. Corrected claims must be resubmitted within thirty (30) days of rejection by DCA. Cisco’s determination regarding corrected claims is final and at its discretion. Once a corrected claim has been rejected, no further action will be taken.

Claims that have been rejected by Cisco with the correction action “Entitlement error” means no action is required, as the claim has been rejected for a reason that cannot be corrected. However, if a distributor wishes to dispute a claim that has been rejected due to an entitlement error, this must be addressed with Cisco within 30 days of rejection by Cisco. The final decision of entitlement will be decided by Cisco only.

Validation Guidelines

Upon acceptance of the Claim, Cisco shall issue a credit/debit memo within thirty (30) days of the claim being submitted to Cisco error free. Error free submission is when a POS or Claim line submitted through DCA does not require any further correction on the Distributor's part. If applicable, credit memo numbers shall be available on DCA within two (2) days following due date.

1. This program is focused on establishing new business practices between Cisco and its distribution base for all business, as described herein. The parties agree that Distributor may participate in the DSV Program (“DSV Program”) in the Territory, where available, subject to the terms and conditions in this Exhibit L. Distributor agrees to comply at all times with the then-current DSV Program guidelines and policies published by Cisco from time to time at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/partners/distributors/sales-visibility.html. To participate in the DSV Program, Distributor must make a separate daily report of orders (the “DSV Order Report”) that have been collected from Resellers using the DSV Booking Template (https://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en_us/partners/distributor/dsv-booking-template-v1-3- 20170428.xlsx). To submit orders under this report, orders must have passed all order holds within Distributor’s sales order entry system.

2. Order Qualification Requirements: Each order submitted under the DSV Program must meet the following criteria:

a. The DSV Order Report must contain a partner purchase order number and a valid Cisco part number, must be reported at the net price, and must contain any approved special pricing agreements (e.g., Deal IDs).

b. Ship dates on Distributor’s sales orders submitted to Cisco cannot exceed 90 days from the Distributor’s acceptance of the order.

c. No transactional claims will be permitted on the orders. Orders must reflect net pricing (e.g., final price after all discounts and expected back-end rebates are considered) and include the applicable DART or Deal ID.

d. Orders must identify and include the relevant End User and Cisco-authorized reseller information.

e. Any changes to or cancellations of an order must be submitted to Cisco by Distributor on the same business day that Distributor is notified of the change or cancellation.

3. Distributor agrees to submit to Cisco, upon request, documentation/reports related to any and all DSV Program orders (including reporting of Products ordered under the DSV Program held in Distributor warehouses). For avoidance of doubt, Cisco’s audit rights, as set forth in Section 15.2 of the Agreement, apply to transactions made by Distributor as part of the DSV Program.

4. For each order submitted under the DSV Program, Distributor shall, upon request from Cisco, submit to Cisco copies of the relevant shipping documents showing Distributor’s shipment of the Product to either the applicable Reseller or End User.

5. Participation in the DSV Program does not entitle Distributor to any of the benefits provided under Cisco’s Channel Programs to Cisco Direct Value Add Resellers (“DVARs”) or any other Ciscoauthorized Resellers.

6. Participation in the DSV Program is at Distributor’s expense. Cisco will not be responsible for any costs incurred by Distributor as a result of the DSV Program.

7. Distributor further acknowledges and agrees that Cisco may modify or terminate the DSV Program at any time, with no less than thirty (30) days advance notice to Distributor.
