The Epidemic Failure clause shall be invoked [***]. The failure rate may be calculated [***], as determined by BUYER. Epidemic failures do not supersede the requirements of any expressed or implied warranty defined herein. In the case of an epidemic failure, SUPPLIER’s obligation is to propose an action plan to fix the failure of any affected Product within seventy-two (72) hours of discovery. SUPPLIER shall implement this action plan upon BUYER’s acceptance thereof.

In addition to bearing the costs associated therewith, if requested by BUYER, SUPPLIER shall support and provide at SUPPLIER’s expense a sufficient number of units of the Product to permit the field exchange or “hot swap” of Products at customer sites. The parties agree to make all reasonable efforts to complete the repair or replacement of all affected Products within eight (8) Business Days after written notice of epidemic failure by BUYER to SUPPLIER. SUPPLIER also agrees that BUYER will be supported with accelerated shipments of replacement Product to cover BUYER’s supply requirements. If an Epidemic Failure is caused by (i) a design, including a BUYER-provided test process, as required by the Specifications or (ii) a failure by a Component required by the Specifications, (iii) misuse or damage during transit or damage by a third party at no fault of SUPPLIER, SUPPLIER shall perform the obligations in this Section 10.5 and BUYER shall pay to SUPPLIER the fees mutually agreed upon by the parties in writing.
