In case for any reason SELLER cannot or does not supply such quantities of the Martek Products as are forecasted in good faith by PURCHASER pursuant to Section 2.2.1 to PURCHASER, PURCHASER shall be allowed to use an alternative supplier for quantities of Omega-3 and Omega-6 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids equal to those quantities of Martek Products that were ordered by PURCHASER pursuant to a Purchase Order and not delivered by SELLER. 2.2.3 PURCHASER shall issue and/or shall direct the Designee(s) to issue formal purchase orders (“Purchase Orders”) at least sixty (60) but no more than ninety (90) days in advance of the date on which PURCHASER or the Designee requests that SELLER ship the Martek Product. SELLER shall accept or reject any such Purchase Order within five (5) business days of receipt, provided that SELLER shall not reject any Purchase Order for any quantities within the most recent forecast. 2.2.4 Purchase Orders which have been accepted by SELLER shall be considered as firm and binding orders (subject to the provisions of Section 2.2.2 above) and shall only be canceled or amended by mutual written agreement of the parties. * CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED.
