ROLLS ROYCE - GENERAL CONDITIONS OF PURCHASE

These general conditions together with the terms and special conditions appearing on a purchase order, schedule agreement, and/or framework order (“Order”) ("Procurement Conditions") are the only express conditions on which Rolls-Royce plc (“R-Rplc”) and/or Rolls-Royce Deutschland Ltd & Co KG (“R-RD”) and/or Rolls-Royce Canada Limited (“RRCAN”) and/or Rolls-Royce Corporation (“R-RC”) (“R-R” collectively or singularly as the case may be) procures goods and/or work and/or services (“Deliverables”) specified on an Order from the person to whom the Order is addressed ("Vendor"). The Vendor will accept an Order by acknowledging receipt or beginning performance, and a contract (“Contract”) will be created. Subject to Clauses 17, 18 and 20 below, for the avoidance of doubt electronic communications shall be deemed to be made in writing. Subject to any long term agreement for the purchase and sale of Deliverables between the parties (a “Long Term Agreement”), any other terms that either Party specifies will be of no effect.

Orders known as “Schedule Agreements” will consist of two parts. Part one will contain but not be limited to the following; the Order number, the part number, description and price and the terms of business agreement reference. Part two of the Order will contain the schedule requirements for the part. Part two will be issued periodically by R-R. Each re-issue of a part one and/or part two Order shall be considered an amendment to the Order. All communications in respect of Orders shall be in English. On request, the Vendor will provide information showing the current status of Deliverables in comparison to the planned status.

2.1

For R-RCAN only, the Parties confirm that they have requested the present Agreement and any correspondence related thereto to be drawn up in the English language. Any dispute in relation to this Agreement will be conducted in English. French Translation of above: Les Parties aux présentes confirment qu’il est de leur volonté expresse que la présente convention ainsi que toute correspondance s’y rattachant, soit rédigée dans la langue anglaise. Tout litige relatif à cette convention sera conduit en anglais.

Risk of loss in the Deliverables will pass to R-R in accordance with the delivery instructions set out on the Order. Unless otherwise set out on the Order title in the Deliverables will pass to R-R upon receipt at the destination set out on the Order unless delivery occurs more than 5 days prior to the scheduled delivery date then title shall pass to R-R on the earlier of; (i) R-R using the Deliverables; or (ii) five days prior to the scheduled delivery date.

4 If delivery of the Deliverables is delayed in respect of the delivery date specified in a Contract, other than for reasons set out in Clause 5 below [*], the Vendor shall pay R-Rplc, RRCAN or R-RC liquidated damages or pay R-RD a penalty as applicable at the rate of 2.5% (two and a half percent) of the cost of the delayed Deliverables for each complete week of delay following written notice to Vendor of the unexcused delay of such deliverables up to a maximum of 10% (ten percent) of such cost to compensate R-R for its internal administration costs only.

5. The Parties agree that timely performance under an Order shall be a primary obligation of the Vendor, hence the Vendor will only be excused delay in delivery or performance if it can show to R-R's reasonable satisfaction that such delay has been caused by circumstances outside its reasonable control and it has notified R-R in writing within five (5) calendar days of becoming aware of such circumstances. No Order will terminate as a result of such delay except that R-R may, at its discretion, terminate an Order in whole or in part where the Vendor is so excused without incurring liability if such delay becomes substantial. The Vendor will make all reasonable endeavours to mitigate the effects of such delay. For the avoidance of doubt, [*]

6.1	The price stated on an Order shall be a fixed price inclusive of all duties, levies and taxes in the country of origin of the Deliverables excluding value added tax or equivalent tax.

6.2	Where the Contract requires the Vendor to submit an invoice, the Vendor will post invoices to R-R's Purchase Accounts Department at the address on the Order on the day on which Deliverables are despatched or completed.

6.3

R-R will electronically transfer payment to the Vendor on the first working day after the last day of the [*] in which the relevant Deliverables have been delivered or completed, provided that the Vendor has supplied such Deliverables in accordance with the Contract and where the Vendor is required to submit an invoice, such invoice is accurate and was received by R-R's Purchase Accounts Department within 7 days of despatch or completion of Deliverables. Without prejudice to R-R's other rights and remedies, R-R may deduct from any payments due to the Vendor under any Contract the amount of any bona fide contra accounts or other claims which R-R may have against the Vendor in connection with that Contract or any other contract.

6.4 For R-Rplc only, if R-Rplc does not post payment in accordance with Clause 6.3 above, the Vendor will be entitled to recover a sum from R-Rplc equal to the interest which it pays or loses as the case may be in consequence of such late payment upon provision of evidence of such payment/loss. The amount so recoverable shall not in any event exceed a sum equivalent to interest at 0.6% above the Bank of England’s Base Rate on the overdue payment for the period between the dates on which the payment was due and made. For these purposes, the Bank of England’s base rate shall be that applicable at the date on which the overdue payment was due. The Parties acknowledge and agree that such payments are sufficient to compensate the Vendor for any such late payment.

6.5

For RRCAN only, If RRCAN does not post payment in accordance with Clause 6.3 above, the Vendor will be entitled to recover a sum from RRCAN equal to the interest which it pays or loses as the case may be in consequence of such late payment upon provision of evidence of such payment/loss. The amount so recoverable shall not in any event exceed a sum equivalent to interest at 0.6% above the TD Bank’s Base Rate on the overdue payment for the period between the dates on which the payment was due and made. For these purposes, the TD Bank’s base rate shall be that applicable at the date on which the overdue payment was due. The Parties acknowledge and agree that such payments are sufficient to compensate the Supplier for any such late payment.

Any items held by the Vendor which R-R has paid for in full or which R-R may have loaned, bailed, consigned or supplied to the Vendor for the execution of an Order will be at the Vendor's risk of loss until delivered to R-R. The Vendor shall be fully liable for any damage caused to such items whilst in its possession. The Vendor will retain such items in good condition, subject to the ordinary wear and tear caused by the ordinary use, storage or possession of such items, during performance and after completion of an Order and shall not dispose of such items except in accordance with R-R's written instructions nor shall such items be used other than for the purpose of such Order without R-R's prior written consent. The Vendor will ensure that such items are at all times identified as the property of R-R and do not become the subject of any encumbrance.

8.1

The Vendor will inspect and release Deliverables as directed on an Order. The Vendor warrants and assures to R-R that all Deliverables delivered hereunder will (a) [*] and (b) such Deliverable will conform to the specifications set forth in the Order, subject to customary mill tolerances and immaterial variations consistent with good mill practices and inspection methods with respect to dimension, weight, straightness, section, composition, mechanical properties, surface and internal conditions and quality. The determination of whether material meets the requirements of this Clauses 8.1(a) and 8.1(b) of these General Conditions of Purchase will be based upon the [*] Each party will ensure that any of its personnel will, whilst on the other party’s premises, comply with the other party’s standard vendor security and health and safety requirements as applicable for such premises, copies of which are available on request.

8.2

If Deliverables do not conform to the requirements set out in Clause 8.1 above (“Non-Conformance” ) without prejudice to R-R's other rights and remedies which R-R may have at law, the Vendor will promptly replace or, where appropriate repair or rectify any such Non-Conformance at its own expense. If the Vendor fails to promptly repair, rectify or replace any Non Conformance R-R may, without prejudice to its other rights and remedies, (i) choose to accept the Non-

Conformance and R-R will be entitled to an equitable adjustment to the Order price to reflect the loss of value due to such Non-Conformance or (ii) rectify or arrange to have rectified such Non-Conformance.

8.3

Any claim against the Vendor for breach of the warranties set forth in Clause 8.1 shall be made in writing no later than [*] after delivery of the Deliverables to R-R (or to another at R-R’s direction or pursuant to the terms of the Long Term Agreement), after which time any such claim shall be deemed waived and barred; provided, however, that if (a) a claim of breach of warranty is made by R-R’s customer against R-R with respect to the goods sold by R-R that incorporate any Deliverables, and (b) such claim could reasonably involve a breach of warranty under Clause 8.1 by the Vendor with respect to such Deliverables, then such [*].

8.4	EXCEPT FOR THOSE EXPRESS WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN CLAUSE 8.1 (AND WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO SECTION 12 OF THE SALE OF GOODS ACT 1979), THE VENDOR MAKES [] WITH RESPECT TO ANY GOODS DELIVERED UNDER ANY ORDER AND* [] INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION,* [*].

8.5

EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF CLAIMS [*], IN NO EVENT SHALL VENDOR OR R-R BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PURSUANT TO ANY ORDER OR CONTRACT OR THESE GENERAL CONDITIONS OF PURCHASE UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY FOR ANY FORM OF CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS OR LOSS OF USE.

9.1 Without prejudice to any of R-R's rights and remedies, R-R may terminate an Order in whole or in part by giving the Vendor notice in writing, identified as a notice of termination, whereupon all work on that Order shall cease. R-R shall pay the Vendor, in full and final satisfaction of all claims arising out of such termination: the price of all Deliverables which the Vendor has justifiably produced and completed in accordance with such terminated Order or part thereof and which R-R has not paid for; the cost of settling any claims for necessary termination of sub-contracts justifiably committed in respect of such terminated Order or part thereof and the cost to the Vendor of any justified work-in-progress in respect of such Order or part thereof.

9.2

The amount payable to the Vendor under Clause 9.1 will not exceed the total amount that would have been payable to the Vendor for the Deliverables and the Vendor will submit notice of its claim within 2 months of termination. Any finished Deliverables and any work in progress paid for by R-R under Clause 9.1 will be delivered to R-R or held by the Vendor as R-R property in accordance with Clause 7 above.

9.3 If R-R has reasonable grounds for believing the Vendor will be unable to substantially fulfil its obligations, R-R may require the Vendor to provide reasonable written evidence that the Vendor will fulfil its obligations. If the Vendor fails to provide such evidence within 30 days of R-R's request R-R may treat that failure as a material breach and terminate the relevant Order.

9.4

Each Party will have the right, without prejudice to its other rights and remedies, to terminate any Order without incurring any liability, if the other Party commits any material breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement or the Order which it fails to rectify within 30 days of written notice of that breach (no notice period shall apply for a breach of delivery terms) or makes a general arrangement with its creditors; or ceases or threatens to cease to carry on its business or a substantial part of it or is unable to pay its debts within the meaning of Section 123 of the Insolvency Act 1986 or any statutory modification or re-enactment thereof; enters into liquidation whether compulsory or voluntary, except as a solvent company for the purposes of amalgamation or reconstruction; or has an administrator or administrative receiver of the whole or part of its assets appointed; or (not being a company registered in England) carries out or becomes subject to actions or proceedings, which, within the jurisdiction to which it is subject, are similar in nature or effect to those specified in this Clause 9.4.

9.5

Each Party will effect termination under this Clause 8 by issuing notice of termination in writing to the other Party. Such notice will be effective 24 hours after it is issued or on receipt whichever is the earlier.

10.

If any Deliverables involve research or development that is specifically funded by R-R then all intellectual property rights in the results thereof will vest in R-R. All designs, drawings, processes and developments by R-R and all intellectual property rights, copyrights and other proprietary rights (including know-how) supplied by R-R under this Agreement and/or any Order shall remain the sole and undivided property of R-R. The Vendor shall use such intellectual property only for the purposes of performing its obligations under this Agreement and/or any Order. The Vendor shall and shall require its employees to sign all papers and do such acts as are reasonably necessary for R-R to pursue formal protection of any anticipated intellectual property rights.

11.

If any allegation is made or any claim asserted against R-R, or any person claiming title from or through R-R, that any act done or proposed to be done in relation to Deliverables constitutes a violation or infringement of any patent, copyright, registered design or other proprietary right held by a third party, the Vendor will indemnify R-R against and hold R-R harmless from any loss or damage (including without limitation all reasonable costs and expenses) arising directly or indirectly out of such allegation or claim unless the allegation or claim is the direct result of the Vendor following a design or process originated and furnished by R-R, in which case, R-R will indemnify and hold the Vendor harmless against any loss or damage (including without limitation all reasonable costs and expenses) arising directly or indirectly out of such allegation or claim.

12.1

The Parties agree to exchange drawings, operating or maintenance instructions together with any other technical and/or commercial information necessary to execute an Order. Title to any such information will not be affected by any such exchange. Subject to Clause 12.2 if manufacturing data and/or drawings relating to the subject of an Order are required for any purpose of R-R, the Vendor will on request supply the same.

12.2

Any information, including but not limited to that covered by Clause 12.1 above, disclosed by one Party to the other in connection with an Order or a proposed Order shall be treated in confidence and shall not be copied or disclosed to any third party without the prior written consent of the disclosing Party. These provisions do not apply to information that has lawfully entered the public domain.

12.3

The Party that has received such information in the form of drawings and/or computer readable written material or other recorded form including all copies thereof, shall return to the disclosing Party all information which has been supplied or it has acquired under this Agreement and/or any Order and shall delete or have deleted all information stored in computer readable form when so requested by the disclosing Party and in any event on completion of its obligations under such Order.

12.4 Subject to Clause 12.2, each Party shall protect all intellectual property rights, copyrights and other proprietary rights (including know-how) supplied by the other Party under this Agreement and/or any Order which are in the possession of its sub-tier suppliers, sub-contractors and/or agents including without limitation, taking all necessary steps and actions to ensure that any such sub-tier supplier complies with all confidentiality provisions herein. Each Party shall indemnify and hold the other harmless in the event of any breach of such provisions by such sub-tier supplier. Furthermore, either Party shall notify the other Party immediately on becoming aware of a breach or a potential breach and shall inform the other Party of what actions it is taking to prevent or remedy such breach or potential breach to ensure risks to the other party are mitigated. The indemnified Party reserves the right to take its own action against any such sub-tier supplier and to direct the indemnifying Party to take certain actions.

13.	The Vendor agrees that R-R shall have the right to enter the Vendor’s facilities at reasonable times to inspect the facility, Deliverables, materials and property of R-R. Such inspection shall not constitute or imply acceptance of any Deliverables.

14. Neither Party will do anything that might result in other parties believing that it has authority either to contract on behalf of the other Party or is a licensee of the other Party. This Agreement shall not include any express or implied licence whatsoever. In particular and without prejudice to the generality of this Clause 14, the Vendor shall not without the prior written permission of R-R manufacture or supply to third parties Deliverables of a similar nature pursuant to technical information supplied or derived from R-R.

15. Neither Party shall refer to the other Party’s name, trademarks or products in connection with any publicity without such other Party’s prior written permission.

16.	Failure by either Party at any time to enforce any term of this Agreement or any Procurement Condition shall not be construed as waiver by such Party of such Condition.

22.

If any provision of this Agreement is declared by any judicial or other competent authority to be void, voidable, illegal or otherwise unenforceable, or indications to that effect are received by either of the Parties from any competent authority, the remainder of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, and the Parties shall amend that provision in such reasonable manner as achieves the intention of the Parties without illegality.

23.

The Parties agree that they have not placed any reliance whatsoever on any representations, statements or understandings made prior to this Agreement whether orally or in writing relating to the subject of this Agreement other than those expressly incorporated in a Long Term Agreement and/or this Agreement and/or the Order, which have been agreed on the basis that its provisions represent their entire agreement and shall supersede all such prior representations, agreements, statements and understandings.
