Failure to Supply If IPC is unable (or anticipates an inability) to manufacture or deliver all or a portion of a Product to Tris as required by a confirmed or accepted Purchase Order pursuant to Section 3.3 of this Agreement, IPC shall promptly notify Tris in writing of the period for which such inability (or anticipated inability) to so manufacture or deliver is expected (an “Anticipated Inability to Deliver”). For avoidance of doubt, so long as IPC uses Commercially Reasonable Efforts and the anticipated inability is a force majeure event, IPC shall not be in breach of the Purchase Order(s) affected nor this Agreement, however, regardless of whether or not IPC has breached a Purchase Order or this Agreement it shall still be liable for Cover and the other obligations set forth in this Section 3.10. In the event IPC is unable to meet Tris’s Purchase Orders or IPC issues a notice of an Anticipated Inability to Deliver, IPC’s obligation to supply shall continue but Tris’ obligation to purchase the Product that IPC is unable to timely supply in accordance with Section 3.3 above shall be suspended and Tris, without relieving IPC of its obligations under Section 3.3, may mitigate its damages by purchasing from another Person the quantity of substitute product that it requires beyond what IPC is able to deliver. Tris shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to obtain such substitute product at a reasonable price and communicate same to IPC in writing. Tris shall be entitled to deduct the difference in cost paid by Tris for such substitute product over the cost of the Product (“Cover”), if any, from any amounts otherwise payable to IPC hereunder, and, to the extent not so offset, IPC shall reimburse Tris for such Cover , within thirty (30) days of receipt of invoice from Tris. IPC will not be entitled to any share of positive Net Profits for sale of substitute product not sourced by Tris from IPC hereunder (provided IPC shall continue to fund its share of negative Net Profits), except to the extent IPC has fully reimbursed Tris for the Cover expense with respect to such product. If at any time thereafter during the Term, IPC is able to timely deliver Product in satisfaction of Tris’ Purchase Orders, IPC shall so notify Tris in writing and, subject to Tris’ contractual commitments to third parties, Tris shall undertake commercially reasonable efforts to limit such contractual commitment in order not to exceed IPC’s volume and period it is unable to supply, Tris will resume purchasing the Product from IPC. If IPC’s inability to timely deliver to Tris the quantity of the Product described in this Section 3.3 continues for a period beyond three (3) months, Tris may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ notice in writing to IPC. IPC shall reimburse Tris for any failure to supply and late supply penalties and/or damages charged to Tris for late supply or non-supply caused by IPC’s failure to timely supply Product pursuant to Purchase Orders delivered to IPC in accordance with this Agreement. For clarity and audit purposes, such failure to supply penalties shall be supported by appropriate invoices detailing the failure to supply penalties issued by the affected customers and wholesallers of Tris. IPC shall reimburse Tris for such penalties and damages, within ten (10) days of receipt of invoice for same from Tris, provided that if such invoice is not timely paid, Tris may at its option offset such amounts owed against other amounts payable by Tris to IPC.
