As used herein, “XXXX” means free and open source software and includes those components of software which components qualify as public domain software or are licensed as shareable freeware or open source software, where shareable freeware is copyrighted computer software which is made available to the general public for use free of charge, for an unlimited time, without restrictions on field of use or redistribution, and open source software conforms to the Open Software Initiative definition of open source software in effect as of the Effective Date of this Agreement.
28.11 NEI will grant EMC reasonable access to NEI’s books and records relating to its representations in this Section 28 and the right to audit them, no more often than [**] (with respect to any particular topic — hence, an audit concerning ozone depleting chemicals would not preclude same-year audit concerning export compliance), upon [**] days’ prior written notice, during regular business hours, at NEI’s principal place of business, in a manner designed to minimize the disruption to NEI’s business activities.
4) No Other Changes. All Other terms and conditions of the Agreement shall remain unchanged.
5) Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which, taken together, shall be regarded as one and the same instrument. PDF or facsimile copies of signatures shall be sufficient to bind each party hereto.

In addition to passing through [**]% of the cost reduction on all new Product purchases, NEI agrees to re-price [**]% of the total quantity of Products committed to by NEI (either already in inventory, or on existing purchase orders) at the old price. However, regardless of the percentage by which [**] reduces the purchase price of a Product, NEI shall only be obligated to apply up to [**]% of that cost reduction on NEI inventory existing at the old price, and only up to a maximum inventory revaluation of $[**] per quarter.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Amendment No. 2 to Purchase Agreement by their duly authorized representatives.
