“4.1 Price and Delivery Schedule. Customer agrees to purchase a minimum of [***] units of Product for QUALCOMM’s manufacture hereunder. Customer shall purchase a minimum of [***] units during each year of this Agreement (a year being measured as the period between the anniversaries of the Effective Date) (the “Yearly Minimum Order Quantity”). Unless this Agreement is terminated earlier, QUALCOMM is obligated to manufacture up to [***] units of Product. The price of Product(s) purchased under the Initial Purchase Order and follow-on Purchase Orders is set forth on Exhibit B and stated in U.S. Dollars. QUALCOMM’s
prices do not include any applicable sales, use, excise, value-added and/or withholding taxes, customs, duties, fees, freight, insurance and delivery charges, or any other taxes, fees or charges. [***].
1.2 | Amendment of Section 4.2. Section 4.2 of the Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows: |
“4.2 Additional Orders For Product. During the Term and after QUALCOMM’s delivery of the initial [***] units, Customer may issue additional Purchase Orders for Product up to a maximum of [***]. Customer shall take delivery of all units on the Purchase Order within One Hundred Fifty (150) days of placing a Purchase Order. Customer shall specify in writing delivery dates, delivery locations (either AP Labs or Formation) and delivery quantities at the time it places each Purchase Order with QUALCOMM. Customer’s Business Aviation and Commercial Aviation Divisions shall place separate Purchase Orders. Customer shall deliver a new Purchase Order to QUALCOMM for a minimum of [***] units no later than One Hundred and Eighty (180) days after QUALCOMM’s receipt of Customer’s prior Purchase Order (the “Semi-Yearly Minimum Order Quantity”). Separate Purchase Orders from Customer’s two divisions that are received by QUALCOMM within three (3) business days of each other may be aggregated to meet the Semi-Yearly Minimum Order Quantity. QUALCOMM shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to accept and ship additional units in excess of [***] units, but if QUALCOMM determines that it cannot deliver such excess units, it shall have no obligation hereunder to accept Purchase Order(s) for them.”
1.3 | Addition of Section 4.5. A new Section 4.5 of the Agreement shall be appended to the Agreement and shall read as follows: |
“4.5 Production Halt. A “Production Halt’ shall mean any period in excess of One Hundred Eighty (180) days during which Customer has not placed Purchase Orders for a minimum order quantity of [***] units. During a Production Halt, Customer shall compensate QUALCOMM for all idle labor and floor space associated with the Product at a daily rate of [***], up to a maximum monthly rate of [***], during all Production Halt periods. The Parties do not anticipate a change in these rates, however, should QUALCOMM determine in good faith that its costs will exceed the rates stated in the prior sentence for any Production Halt, then QUALCOMM shall present its rationale for increasing the rates to Customer and the Parties will mutually agree upon increased rates. When a Production Halt has begun, QUALCOMM may complete the delivery and invoicing for any outstanding units against open Purchase Orders received prior to the beginning of the Production Halt [***].

Except for QUALCOMM-sourced EOL parts, Customer shall be responsible for tracking EOL parts, Customer and QUALCOMM shall both receive EOL material notifications for all components on the Product’s xxxx of materials.

Customer shall issue a purchase order to QUALCOMM, and QUALCOMM shall pre-buy on Customer’s behalf and hold in a separate and protected inventory location, all Product EOL components for the Term. QUALCOMM shall invoice Customer for any purchases of Product EOL components.

9.2 Audit. The Parties will jointly conduct quarterly audits for EOL components held by QUALCOMM and owned by Customer. Should an audit find a discrepancy of the EOL components actually held by QUALCOMM against what Customer actually paid for, then the Parties will agree upon a reasonable plan of mitigation with all lost or stolen parts being replaced by QUALCOMM. Customer shall, upon QUALCOMM’s request, provide evidence of the invoices for payment of the EOL material.
