4. DELIVERY INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE. Unless otherwise agreed in writing Seller will deliver Products to Buyer EXW (lncoterms 2010) Seller's warehouse dock. Upon notification to Buyer, title to Products passes at the same time as risk of loss in accordance with the lncoterm specified above. All Products will be subject to final inspection, testing and acceptance by Buyer within 20 working days following the date of receipt at Buyer's site. Buyer may reject (by way of written notice to the Seller) the Products delivered thereunder, in whole or in part, which do not meet Product Drawing and Specifications. When the results of any inspection or testing indicate that Products do not conform to the specifications or the Purchase Order or any provisions of this Agreement, the Seller shall have fourteen (14) days from the receipt of the notice from Buyer, within which to respond to Buyer claims. In the event Seller rejects Buyer's claims that the Products are defective, Buyer shall be required to provide supporting documentation and evidence to substantiate such rejection. In case the Seller does not reject Buyer claims, Seller undertakes that it shall make free of charge repair or replacement of Products, in a reasonable timeframe at Seller's expense, including transportation and handling costs. Payment for Products shall not be deemed acceptance of such Products. End items and/or spare parts shall be packed and packaged in accordance with reasonable commercial practice for one-way shipment surface transportation.
5. LATE DELIVERY AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES. Seller shall adhere to the shipment or delivery schedules specified in the Purchase Order (which shall be established no less than lead time away from the delivery date).

Except in the cases of Force Majeure or delays in deliveries caused by Buyer, including but not limited to late or non-conforming Buyer Furnished Parts, tag response, late or deficient engineering or specifications, beginning after the first seven days of delay, Seller is obligated to pay to the Buyer liquidated damages of 1% of the unit price for each late Product per full week of delay to be expressed as a reduction in the Seller's invoice amount for each delayed Product.

The liquidated damages are the exclusive monetary remedy for the delay period but will be without prejudice to Buyer's other rights and remedies. The Parties agree that actual costs suffered by Buyer as a result of a late delivery may be difficult to ascertain, uncertain in nature, and incapable of exact determination in each instance, and that the liquidated damages outlined in this Article 5 is a good faith estimate of the costs suffered by Buyer, and not a penalty, resulting from late delivery.

i. Buyer may direct changes within the general scope of these Terms and Conditions of Sale or any Purchase Order issued thereunder in any of the following: (i) technical requirements and descriptions, specifications, statement of work, drawings or designs; (ii) shipment or packing methods; (iii) place of delivery, inspection or acceptance; and (iv) reasonable adjustments in quantities or delivery schedules or both; (v) delivery schedule of Buyer furnished property; (vi) terms and conditions required to meet Buyer's obligations under its customer contracts. Seller shall comply promptly with such direction. Except for the rights granted to Buyer under this Article, a change pursuant to this Article shall not give rise to nor authorize any other modification of or amendment to the terms and conditions of these Terms and Conditions of Sale or the Purchase Order.
ii. If such change increases or decreases the cost or time required to perform these Terms and Conditions of Sale or the Purchase Order, Seller shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment to the price and/or schedule resulting from the impact of such change, Buyer and Seller shall negotiate an equitable adjustment in the price or schedule, or both, to reflect the increase or decrease. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Seller must assert any claim for adjustment to Buyer's Authorized Procurement Representative in writing within forty-five (45) days and deliver a fully supported proposal to Buyer's Authorized Procurement Representative within ninety (90) days, after Seller's receipt of such direction. Buyer may, at its sole discretion, consider any claim regardless of when asserted. If Seller's proposal includes the cost of property made obsolete or excess by the change, Buyer may direct the disposition of the property. Seller has the burden to support the amount of Seller's claim for equitable adjustment. Further, Buyer shall have the right to verify the amount of Seller's claim. Failure of the Parties to agree upon any adjustment shall not excuse Seller from performing in accordance with Buyer's direction. Parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any equitable adjustment within one hundred and twenty (120) days after submittal. Failure of the Parties to agree on an equitable adjustment shall constitute a dispute which shall be resolved in accordance with paragraph 22 below.

b. | Cost Reduction Initiatives |
LIFT and Qarbon Aerospace shall work together throughout the Term of the Agreement to identify and agree on potential cost-saving design changes with the goal of reducing both Parties' costs. For any cost-savings initiatives that require changes to the design or technical requirements, the Parties shall agree on an appropriate cost sharing after Qarbon Aerospace recovers its implementation costs. Formal adjustment to the price shall not be made until the appropriate adjustment, if any, is determined by mutual agreement. Nothing in this provision shall prevent LIFT from directing a change in accordance with the Buyer Direct Changes provision of this Section 7. For the avoidance of doubt, there will be no adjustment to the price as a result of cost reduction initiatives that do not involve changes to the design or technical requirements.
