(1) (a) If, in 2002, CORVIS fails to purchase for delivery in 2002 a quantity of VENDOR's Products whose aggregate purchase price is equal to or exceeds Twenty Five Million U.S. Dollars, then VENDOR may immediately invoice CORVIS for an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of the difference between Twenty Five Million U.S. Dollars and the aggregate purchase price of all Products actually purchased for delivery in 2002 by CORVIS (such difference being the "Annual Minimum Purchase Commitment Shortfall"). CORVIS will pay such invoice within thirty (30) days after receipt of invoice. (b) (If CORVIS fails, in any calendar quarter of 2002, to purchase for delivery in that respective quarter a quantity of VENDOR's Products whose aggregate purchase price is at least Three Million U.S. Dollars, then the remainder of this Section 2.3.(1)(b) will be invalid, and of no force or effect.)

(2) (a) If, in 2003, CORVIS fails to purchase for delivery in 2003 a quantity of VENDOR's Products whose aggregate purchase price is equal to or exceeds Twelve Million U.S. Dollars, then VENDOR may immediately invoice CORVIS for an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the difference between Twelve Million U.S. Dollars and the aggregate purchase price of all Products actually purchased for delivery in 2003 by CORVIS (such difference being the "Annual Minimum Purchase Commitment Shortfall"). CORVIS will pay such invoice within thirty (30) days after receipt of invoice. (b) (If CORVIS fails, in any calendar quarter of 2003, to purchase for delivery in that respective quarter a quantity of VENDOR's Products whose aggregate purchase price is at least Two Million U.S. Dollars, then the remainder of this Section 2.3.(2)(b) will be invalid, and of no force or effect.)

The first month of each Rolling Forecast (hereafter "M+1") shall include the quantity of each product, by product code, to be delivered during M+1 and the target delivery date for each shipment to be made during M+1. The remaining months of each Rolling Forecast (M+2 through M+12) shall contain the quantity of each product by product code which CORVIS anticipates will be delivered during the specified month. The first month of the Rolling Forecast shall represent a binding commitment to order and CORVIS shall submit a Purchase Order for * no later than the seventh business day of M for delivery in the following month (M +1). The forecast issued in M for the second month of each Rolling Forecast (M+2) shall be partially binding in that in the next subsequent Rolling Forecast (in which M+1 has become M and M+2 has become M+1), the quantity of each product, by product code, to be delivered in M+1 and the corresponding Purchase Order shall be not less than * of the quantity forecast for such month in the immediately preceding Rolling Forecast. The forecast issued in M for the third month of each Rolling Forecast (M+3) shall be partially binding in that in the next subsequent Rolling Forecast (in which M+1 has become M, M+2 has become M+1 and M+3 has become M+2), the quantity of each product, by product code, to be delivered in M+2 and the corresponding Purchase Order shall be not less than * of the quantity forecast for such month in the immediately preceding Rolling Forecast for M+3. -3- * Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

VENDOR shall make commercially reasonable efforts to maintain sufficient capacity to process, manufacture, and deliver the Products VENDOR is obligated to deliver to CORVIS under this Agreement, within the delivery times set out in Section 4.2. For increases of units of a Product in any given month in the Rolling Forecast that exceed * of the units of that Product in that month in the then-preceding Rolling Forecast, the parties shall meet and discuss the delivery obligations of VENDOR; VENDOR will have no obligation to accept Orders for that excess unless the parties mutually agree. The parties will also agree to the first Rolling Forecast delivered under this Agreement. 2.6. Inventory. VENDOR shall, not later than * from the Effective --------- Date, maintain an inventory of each Product equal to * of the amount it is required to supply pursuant to Section 2.5 for month M+1 of the then current Rolling Forecast.

If, as a result of VENDOR's pricing not being competitive, the parties do not agree in good faith to 2002 or 2003 pricing, then: (x) CORVIS will have no obligations to issue Orders, and VENDOR will have no obligations to accept Orders, in that particular year; and, (y) CORVIS will promptly purchase the inventory mentioned in Section 2.6., above, at the unit prices last in effect. -4- * Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions.

For pricing that is variable based upon the units of a Product purchased by CORVIS, pricing shall be based upon quantities CORVIS has in its initial Rolling Forecast for the year, and, if the actual amount purchased by CORVIS is greater or less than the initial Rolling Forecast amount upon which the pricing was calculated, then, at these quarterly reviews, the parties will negotiate in good faith to adjust the unit pricing going forward for that Product accordingly. If there is a discrepancy between the unit price of any Product listed in Attachment 1 and another correspondence, including purchase orders and order confirmations, the unit price set forth in Attachment 1 shall control, unless amended via an express writing executed by CORVIS and VENDOR 2.9.

If CORVIS elects not to use the suggested replacement product, VENDOR shall offer CORVIS a * period beginning the day of the notice of discontinuance within which CORVIS can place orders for the discontinued Product. CORVIS may give a last order ("One Time Buy Order") immediately prior to the end of the * period.
