RECITALS
A. Purchaser, Seller and ADLT are parties to a certain Component
Purchase Agreement dated December 3, 2001(the "Component Purchase Agreement")
pursuant to which the Purchaser and Seller agreed to set forth the terms of
future sales of Products. The parties to this agreement desire to amend the
Component Purchase Agreement in accordance with the terms set forth below. Terms
not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Component Purchase Agreement.
B. Purchaser has ordered Product from Seller in accordance with the
blanket purchase order attached as EXHIBIT A (the "Purchase Order"). The parties
agree and acknowledge that with the submission of the Purchase Order, the
Purchaser's aggregate Product purchases for calendar year 2002 for purposes of
the Component Purchase Agreement exceed $10 million.
C. The Seller desires to fulfill the Purchase Order pursuant to the
terms of the Component Purchase Agreement. However, the Seller has indicated
that it does not have sufficient capacity to completely fulfill the Purchase
Order and deliver the Products by December 31, 2002.
AGREEMENTS
In consideration of the Recitals (which are incorporated herein by
reference) and the mutual agreements set forth below, the parties agree as
follows:
1. GRANT OF ADDITIONAL TIME TO FULFILL ORDERS. Purchaser agrees that
Seller shall have until March 31, 2003 to fulfill the Purchase Order. Purchaser
agrees that if Seller fulfills the Purchase Order in accordance with the terms
of this
Agreement, Seller shall not be in breach of Seller's delivery requirements set
forth in section 7(a) of the Component Purchase Agreement. The parties agree
that (a) all of the Product purchases represented by the Purchase Order shall
be used in calculating the earned rebate for calendar year 2002 in accordance
with section 5 of the Component Purchase Agreement; and (b) the Purchaser's
aggregate Product purchases for calendar 2002 exceed $10 million.
2. MINIMUM DELIVERIES. Notwithstanding the extension of time set forth
in section 1 above, the Seller acknowledges that it is obligated to meet
Purchaser's minimum requirements for calendar year 2002 and beyond. Accordingly,
the Seller covenants and agrees to provide Product at the historic 10-month run
rate.
The parties acknowledge that the amount of consigned ballast to be held in
Purchaser's inventory has fallen below the amount required under the Consignment
Agreement dated December 3, 2001 between Seller and Purchaser. Seller agrees to
promptly replenish and shall thereafter continually maintain a minimum of 30,000
ballasts on consignment of the type and quantity set forth on Exhibit B at the
Purchaser's Racine, Wisconsin facility.
If Seller does not comply with the foregoing or if Seller is unable to
fully deliver the Product specified on the Purchase Order by March 31, 2003,
then all subsequent deliveries of Product shall count toward Purchaser's
calendar year 2003 purchases under the Component Purchase Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that the entire 2002 Earned
Rebate of $1,400,000 shall be payable as set forth below.
3. EARNED REBATE. Seller, ADLT and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that
the rebate owed Purchaser for calendar year 2002 pursuant to the Component
Purchase Agreement is $1,400,000 (the "Earned Rebate"). The Parties agree that
the entire Earned Rebate will be credited to Purchaser's account no later than
January 30, 2003 provided, however, that such account shall not be so credited
unless and until all payments have been made necessary to bring Purchaser's
accounts current in accordance with the terms of the Component Purchase
Agreement, and that Purchaser may offset such Earned Rebate against any amounts
then payable to Seller.
4. MISCELLANEOUS. Except as otherwise provided herein, the terms of the
Component Purchase Agreement shall govern Purchaser's purchase of Products from
Seller. This Agreement, the Component Purchase Agreement, the Consignment
Agreement and the exhibits attached thereto and hereto contain the entire and
only Agreement between the parties with regard to the subject matter hereof,
there being merged herein all prior and collateral representations, promises and
conditions in connection with said matter and any representation, promise or
2
condition not incorporated herein or made a part hereof shall not be binding
upon any party.
The parties have caused this Agreement to be executed by their
authorized representatives as of the date set forth above.
