All Special Tooling and any other property that is paid for by Buyer or its customer and/or furnished to Seller by Buyer or its customer and/or made available to Seller by Buyer or its customer ("Buyer Provided Special Tooling") is and shall remain the property of Buyer or its customer. Buyer shall also have the right (at its option) to purchase at cost at any time all Special Tooling that does not qualify as Buyer Provided Special Tooling ("Other Special Tooling"), and upon Buyer electing or agreeing to purchase any Other Special Tooling, such Other Special Tooling shall become Buyer Provided Special Tooling. Buyer may condition its purchase of Other Special Tooling upon Buyer accepting, as conforming to requirements hereunder, the first run of parts made by the use thereof and until Seller has furnished to Buyer an itemized list of such Other Special Tooling and such records as may be necessary to enable Buyer to audit the cost thereof.

All taxes levied with respect to Special Tooling while in Seller's possession shall be borne by Seller. Upon completion, cancellation or termination of this purchase order, all Buyer Provided Special Tooling, together with operation sheets or process data necessary to show the use thereof, shall be held free of charge pending instructions from Buyer.

Seller shall bear the risk of loss of, and damage to, all Special Tooling, normal wear and tear excepted. Seller grants to Buyer a purchase money security interest in all Buyer Provided Special Tooling, any portion thereof, work in progress, raw materials, drawings and other items dedicated to constructing the Buyer Provided Special Tooling and agrees to perform any act and execute any document reasonably necessary to perfect the Buyer's security interest in the Buyer Provided Special Tooling. Buyer has the right at any time, with or without reason and without payment of any kind to retake possession of or require the return of any Buyer Provided Special Tooling, without the necessity of obtaining any court order. Upon Buyer's request, Seller will promptly deliver all Buyer Provided Special Tooling to Buyer F.O.B. the location specified by Buyer. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Seller waives any lien or other rights that Seller might otherwise have (including, without limitation, any statutory lien rights) with respect to any Special Tooling or any other property of Buyer. Seller acknowledges and agrees that (i) Buyer is not the manufacturer of the Special Tooling nor the manufacturer's agent nor a dealer therein; (ii) Buyer is bailing the Buyer Provided Special Tooling to Seller for Seller's benefit; and (iii) Seller has inspected the Special Tooling and is satisfied that the Special Tooling is suitable and fit for its purposes, and (iv) BUYER HAS NOT MADE AND DOES NOT MAKE ANY WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION WHATSOEVER, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE FITNESS, CONDITION, MERCHANTABILITY, DESIGN OR OPERATION OF THE SPECIAL TOOLING OR ITS FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Buyer will not be liable to Seller for any loss, damage, injury or expense of any kind or nature caused, directly or indirectly, by the Special Tooling, including, without limitation, its use or maintenance, or its repair, service or adjustment, or by any interruption of service or for any loss of business whatsoever or howsoever caused, including, without limitation any anticipatory damages, loss of profits or any other indirect, special or consequential damages. Seller authorizes Buyer to file a UCC-1 financing statement or similar document with the appropriate filing authority to give notice of Buyer's ownership interest in the Buyer Provided Special Tooling.

Seller will, at Buyer's request (which may be made by notation on blueprints or written instructions) place on the material covered by this purchase order (or any portion thereof), at Seller's expense and in the manner and place specified by Buyer, such trademark and/or identifying mark as Buyer may specify. No trademark or other designation, other than that of Buyer, shall be placed on any material covered by this purchase order, either as an assembly or component part of any assembly, without Buyer's consent, and similar material shall not be sold or otherwise disposed of to anyone other than Buyer.

This purchase order is issued to Seller in reliance upon Seller's personal performance of the duties imposed and Seller agrees not to assign, subcontract or delegate this purchase order (or any portion hereof) without the consent in writing of Buyer (which may be withheld by Buyer in its sole discretion). Any consent by Buyer to a particular assignment, subcontracting relationship or delegation shall not constitute a consent by Buyer to subsequent assignments, subcontracting relationships or delegations, or a waiver of the general prohibition on subsequent assignments, subcontracting relationships or delegations.

Except as specifically provided otherwise in the Purchase Order, (a) neither Seller nor any of its employees, agents or subcontractors shall use any data, drawings, blueprints, designs, descriptions, specifications or samples, or any other documents, information, items or work product (collectively, "Work Product") furnished by Buyer or developed by either party in connection with the purchase order or the Supply Agreement, except in performing thereunder, and (b) any proprietary, intellectual property, technical or trade secret information disclosed by a party to the other under or in connection with the purchase order or the Supply Agreement, including, without limitation, patents, trademarks, copyrights, know-how and trade secrets, shall remain the exclusive property of the disclosing party, and (c) notwithstanding the foregoing, all Work Product, inventions (whether or not patentable), copyrights, know-how, data, information, intellectual property, proprietary rights and any other items (direct or indirectly), in whole or in part, resulting from, related to or otherwise made, originated, discovered, developed, reduced to practice or conceived by Seller or its affiliates or subcontractors in connection with performing under the purchase order or the Supply Agreement (collectively, "Developed IP") shall be deemed to be work made for hire and shall be the sole property of and owned by Buyer. To the extent that, by operation of law, Seller owns any intellectual property rights in the Developed IP, Seller hereby assigns to Buyer all rights, title and interest in such Developed IP. Seller shall promptly from time to time upon Buyer's request execute and deliver to Buyer any and all documents requested by Buyer conveying any such Developed IP to Buyer. Seller grants to Buyer an irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free, fully paid-up, non-exclusive, worldwide license with the right to grant sublicenses to affiliates to use any technical information, know how, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property and proprietary rights owned or controlled by Seller or its affiliates to make, have made, use and sell any materials provided by Seller under the purchase order.

Seller agrees to submit certificates of insurance, evidencing its insurance coverage when requested by Buyer.

Buyer's rights and remedies under this purchase order shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies provided by law or equity. Any attempt on the part of Seller or any other party to limit Buyer's remedies or the amount and types of damages it may seek shall be null and void. The failure of the Buyer to insist upon the performance of any term or condition of this purchase order, or to exercise any right hereunder, shall not be construed as a waiver of the future performance of any such term or condition or the exercise in the future of any such right.

In no event shall Buyer be liable to Seller for anticipated profits or for incidental or consequential damages. Buyer's liability for a claim of any kind for any loss or damage arising out of or in connection with or resulting from this Purchase Order, or from any performance or breach, shall in no case exceed the price allocable to the materials, which directly gives rise to the claim.

Unless prohibited by law, the Seller shall pay all federal, state, local or foreign tax, transportation tax, or other tax, including but not limited to customs duties and tariffs, which is required by or imposed upon any materials ordered hereunder, or by reason of their sale or delivery. All order prices shall be deemed to have included all such taxes.

To the extent that this purchase order or any other order covers materials which are parts, components, items, tooling and/or services being supplied to or for the benefit of any customer of Buyer, Seller acknowledges and agrees that such materials must be in compliance with all of the applicable requirements, specifications, standards, pricing requirements (even if such pricing differs from the purchase order or order price), audit standards, and terms and conditions for such materials which are set forth in the customer's purchase documents.

Seller will not have any obligation to make goods available to Buyer for part model year service parts. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, if Seller agrees to make such service parts available to Buyer, ,the parties will negotiate in good faith the price, quantity and delivery terms for service parts taking into account the availability and costs of necessary materials, supplies, labor and other costs for equipment, set up, packaging and similar factors.

Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees that the prices set forth in this contract are contingent upon Buyer's agreement to purchase the total quantities set forth in the Buyer's request for quote/proposal. If Buyer fails to purchase at least 90% of the quantities of goods contained in its request for quote/proposal, Buyer agrees that the pricing on the goods delivered to Buyer shall be adjusted retroactively to reflect the impact of lower volume on material pricing, labor efficiencies and other cost and expenses of Seller. Buyer hereby agrees to pay Seller such additional sums within 30 days of the date of Seller's invoice for payment. Seller will not have any obligation to make goods available to Buyer for part model year service parts. However, it not withstanding the foregoing, Seller is obligated or agrees to make such service parts available to Buyer, the parties will negotiate in good faith the price, quantity and delivery terms for service parts taking into account the availability and costs of necessary materials, supplies, labor and other costs for equipment, set up, packaging and similar factors.

Any technical information disclosed by either Buyer or Seller to the other during the term of this contract is proprietary to each and may not be used by the other or disclosed by the other to any other entity without the written consent of the owner of the technical information. Any technical information owned or developed by Seller, including but not limited to, patents, trademarks, copyrights, know-how and proprietary information, and used for the supply of goods under this contract shall remain the sole and exclusive property of Seller. Except as authorized in writing by and on terms acceptable to Seller, Buyer shall have no right to disclose any technical information to any third party or to have any third party make any goods that use the technical information owned by Seller. Seller is and shall be the sole owner of any and all intellectual property, proprietary rights, work product and any other items (direct or indirectly), in whole or in part, resulting from, related to or otherwise made, originated, discovered, developed, reduced to practice or conceived by Seller or its affiliates or subcontractors in connection with performing under this contract.

Seller is and shall be the sole owner of any and all intellectual property, proprietary rights, work product and any other items (direct or indirectly), in whole or in part, resulting from, related to or otherwise made, originated, discovered, developed, reduced to practice or conceived by Seller or its affiliates or subcontractors in connection with performing under this contract.

Neither this contract nor any related purchase order may be terminated, cancelled or modified (in whole or in part) except with Seller's written consent. In the event of any termination or cancellation of all or part of this contract or any purchase order by Buyer, Buyer agrees to pay Seller for all reasonable and allocable materials, material management, labor, overhead and general and administrative costs and expenses incurred as a result of any such termination or cancellation, plus an amount stipulated to be 10% of such costs and expenses on the payment terms set forth above. By way of illustration and not limitation, Seller's costs incurred by reason of Buyer's termination or cancellation may include the storage costs for the items to be purchased, and costs associated with relocating the production to an alternate source, as well as the costs of unreimbursed and/or unamortized research and development costs, capital equipment, and other property and supplies of Seller needed to produce and which are unique to the goods. In the event of such termination or cancellation and upon receipt of payment as described above, all completed goods, assemblies in process, components and any tooling, and equipment owned by Buyer and furnished to Seller under this contract shall be returned to Buyer in accordance with instructions specified by Buyer. In the event of any termination or cancellation, inventory carrying charges will be assessed at a rate of 2% per month on the value of such inventory until the relevant inventory is disposed of and paid for by Buyer. In the event of any reschedule of delivery of goods by Buyer for a period of more than two weeks, inventory carrying charges will be assessed at a rate of 2% per month until such goods are shipped.

Changes in the work to be performed under the contract may be made only if Buyer submits written instructions for such changes and if Seller accepts those changes in writing. If any such approved changes in drawings, materials, quantities, dates of performance or design of the part, units, tools, or fixtures, in Seller's sole judgment, increase Seller's costs, Seller may condition approval of any such change on agreement by Buyer to a price increase to recoup such cost increase, plus reasonable return.

Buyer's tools, molds and dies ("tooling") in the possession of Seller are at the risk of Buyer, and Seller does not undertake to insure such property. Seller will be responsible for normal maintenance of all tooling necessary to produce the goods. Buyer, however, will be responsible for major repairs, rehabilitation and replacement of its tooling. Seller may dispose of any tooling at any time after one year after completion of the most recent production order requiring the use of such tooling, and Seller shall not be liable for the continued retention or availability of any such tooling after the expiration of such period. Notwithstanding any return of its tooling to Buyer, Buyer shall acquire no interest in any proprietary design and/or processing information evident in the tooling used by Seller to produce the goods for Buyer. Buyer's tooling which is used to produce the goods that are the subject of this contract shall not be removed from Seller's possession unless Seller fails to deliver parts complying with mutually agreed upon specifications and delivery schedules, and fails to make reasonable progress toward compliance after written notice from Buyer. In addition, Buyer grants Seller a security interest in all Buyer owned tooling held by Seller. Seller may retain possession of that tooling until all amounts owing to Seller by Buyer are paid.

Buyer shall indemnify Seller against, and hold Seller harmless from, any and all liabilities, losses, damages, claims, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees (collectively "liabilities"), arising out of, connected with, or resulting from the goods, including but not limited to, the design, manufacturing, selection, delivery, possession, use or operation of the goods. Seller's entire liability for goods is limited as set forth in paragraph 5 above. Buyer shall indemnify Seller against all liabilities involving alleged violation of patent rights relating to Buyer's specifications and/or the goods resulting from those specifications. Buyer shall bear the full burden for all liabilities in any such instance.

Seller warrants that for a period of 30 days from the date of delivery the goods will be free from defects of material and workmanship. SELLER MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, BY OPERATION OF LAW OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ALL OF WHICH ARE HEREBY SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMED. IN PARTICULAR, BUT WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING EXCLUSION, (i) IF THE GOODS ARE MADE ACCORDING TO BUYER'S SPECIFICATIONS, SELLER DOES NOT WARRANT ADEQUACY OF SUCH SPECIFICATIONS OR THAT THE GOODS WILL PERFORM IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH SPECIFICATIONS, (ii) IF ANY GOODS FURNISHED HEREUNDER ARE MADE BY ANY SUPPLIER OTHER THAN SELLER, SELLER DOES NOT PROVIDE ANY WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO SUCH GOODS, (iii) SELLER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE GOODS ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS OF ANY COUNTRY, AND (iv) IF THE GOODS ARE MODULES OR ASSEMBLIES, SELLER DOES NOT WARRANT DESIGN, DESIGN PERFORMANCE, DURABILITY OR SYSTEM INTEGRATION OF THE MODULES, ASSEMBLIES OR ANY COMPONENTS THEREOF. Seller's sole obligation under the foregoing warranties will be limited to either, at Seller's option, replacing or repairing defective goods or refunding the purchase price paid for such goods previously paid by Buyer, and Buyer's exclusiveremedyforbreachofanyofsuchwarrantieswillbeenforcementofsuchobligationofSeller. Thesewarrantieswillnotextendtogoods subjected to misuse, abuse, neglect, damage, accident or improper installation or maintenance or which have been altered or repaired by anyone other than Seller or its authorized representative. Seller shall not be liable on any claim for defective goods, which is not made within 30 days after such goods have been received by Buyer. In the event Buyer claims Seller has breached any of its obligations under the contract, whether of warranty or otherwise, Seller may request the return of the goods and tender to Buyer the purchase price previously paid by Buyer, and in such event, Seller shall have no further obligation under the contract except to refund such purchase price upon redelivery of the goods. No goods may be returned without Seller's written request. If Seller requests the return of the goods, the goods will be redelivered to Seller at Buyer's expense by lowest cost mode of transportation unless otherwise authorized in writing by Seller. Seller reserves the right to inspect any claimed defect, repair defective goods or install replacement parts, and perform any adjustment incident to satisfactory operation of the goods. In the event Buyer claims Seller has breached any of its obligations under the contract, whether of warranty or otherwise, and Seller has not delivered any goods to Buyer, Seller may tender to Buyer the purchase price previously paid by Buyer, and, in such event, Seller shall have no further obligation under the contract except to refund such purchase price previously paid by Buyer. The remedies contained in this paragraph shall constitute the sole recourse of Buyer against Seller for breach of any of Seller's obligations under the contract, whether of warranty or otherwise. In no event shall Seller be liable for incidental, consequential or special damages, including without limitation, lost revenues, profits or recall expenses, nor shall Seller's liability on any claim for damages arising out of or connected with the contract or the manufacture, sale, delivery or use of the goods exceed the purchase price of the goods previously paid under this particular contract by Buyer to Seller.

Buyer assumes all risk of loss of goods upon delivery by Seller to carrier. Seller agrees to package the goods, put them in the possession of a carrier, make appropriate arrangements for their transportation, and obtain and deliver documents necessary to enable Buyer to obtain possession of the goods. Seller shall not be obligated to obtain insurance or to prepay transportation costs. Buyer agrees to pay all loading, unloading and other charges incidental to transportation. Seller will attempt to follow Buyer's shipping instructions, but may make reasonable changes thereto. Whether or not Seller pays shipping charges, risk of loss shall pass to Buyer upon delivery of the goods to a carrier. Breach of this contract shall have no effect upon this provision controlling the risk of loss.

Delivery dates are not guaranteed but are estimated on the basis of immediate receipt by Seller of all information to be furnished by Buyer, and all shipments are subject to Seller's production schedule. Seller may ship overages or underages to the extent of 10% of quantity ordered. Seller shall not be responsible for claims for error in quantity, weight or number not made within 10 days after Buyer's receipt of goods. Seller will not be liable for any delay in performance of this contract or delivery of goods when the delay is caused directly or indirectly by fire, flood, accident, riot, acts of God, war, governmental interference, strikes or other labor difficulties, shortage of labor, fuel, power, materials or supplies, transportation delays, failure of tooling or the repair, maintenance or rehabilitation of the tooling, or any other cause or causes whatsoever beyond its control. In the event Seller is delayed in performance by Buyer or at Buyer's request, Buyer will be responsible for any resulting increase in cost, including handling and insurance charges and storage charges, and Seller may invoice goods ready for shipment with payment to be made in accordance with the payment schedule as if the goods had been shipped. In the event delay is caused by Buyer's failure to furnish information necessary for Seller's performance, Seller may extend the shipment date for a reasonable time in proportion to the period of Buyer's delay. Each installment of goods to be delivered pursuant to this contract is to be considered as a separate sale and Buyer shall be liable to pay the agreed price for each such installment without regard to any failure to deliver other installments, and Seller's breach or default in the delivery of any installment shall not give Buyer the right to refuse to receive any other installments.

Payments are due from Buyer on the 25th day of the month next following Buyer's receipt of Seller's invoice, unless otherwise provided in the contract. Payments shall be made to Seller at the address specified in the invoice, without any offset or deduction for any reason. Buyer waives all rights of offset and deduction. Pro rata payments shall become due, as shipments are made. If any shipment is delayed by Seller at the request of Buyer, payment shall become due based on the date when Seller is prepared to make shipment, and Seller may invoice based on such date. Prices are F.O.B. Seller's shipping point unless otherwise stated in the contract. Payment terms for tooling are one-third with order, one-third upon first article shipment, and one-third upon first article approval, unless otherwise required by Seller. When any payment is not paid on or before its due date, Buyer agrees to pay a late charge on the sum outstanding, from the due date for receipt of payment to the actual date of receipt of payment, at a rate of 1.5% per month on the unpaid balance. If a payment is not paid on or before its due date, Buyer agrees that Seller may also cease performance under any and all of Buyer's purchase orders whether or not related to the late payment. Whenever, in the judgment of Seller, the financial condition of the Buyer does not justify the continuation of production or shipment on the specified terms of payment, Seller may require full or partial payment in advance. Seller shall have a security interest in all tools, molds, and dies and other property of Buyer, which come into the possession of Seller, as security for all sums owing from Buyer to Seller from time to time.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision in Buyer's purchase order, no action by Seller such as delivery of goods, the rendering of services or the commencement of work on goods to be specially manufactured for Buyer, will be deemed an acceptance by Seller of any purchase order from Buyer with terms different or additional than those contained in this contract.

No right or interest in this contract shall be delegated or assigned by Buyer without the written permission of Seller. Any attempt at assignment or delegation shall be void unless made in conformity with this paragraph. Buyer warrants that it is purchasing for its own account and not as an agent.
