| 15.1 | The parties intend to collect data for one hundred eighty (180) days with the goal of agreeing to a warranty period of eighteen (18) months from the date of shipment. Until a separate agreement in writing is reached, and unless otherwise agreed in a Product Exhibit, Solectron warrants for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of manufacture of the Product that (i) the Product will conform to the specifications applicable to such Product at the time of its manufacture, which are furnished in writing by Zhone and accepted by Solectron; and (ii) such Product will be of good material (supplied by Solectron) and be free from defects in workmanship. If Products are subject to a third-party manufacturers’ warranty, then to the extent permitted by such third-party, Solectron hereby assigns such warranties to Zhone. |
| 15.2 | ZHONE’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND SOLECTRON’S ENTIRE LIABILITY FOR BREACH OF WARRANTY IS AS STATED IN THIS SECTION 15.2. In the event that any Product manufactured shall not be in conformity with the foregoing warranties, Solectron shall, at Solectron’s option, either credit Zhone for any such nonconformity (not to exceed the purchase price paid by Zhone for such Product), or, at Solectron’s expense, replace, repair or correct such Product. Repaired or replaced Product shall be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period or ninety (90) days, whichever is greater. Zhone agrees to pay a screening fee for assemblies submitted for warranty work that are not packed appropriately, result in No Defect Found, or are required to be tested against a later version test software than was used at the time of manufacture. Such fee will be negotiated and established in good faith by the parties based on historical field data and other relevant information. Zhone will cover all transportation costs to and from Solectron for warranty repairs and shall retain title to returned Product. |
| 15.3 | Solectron shall have no liability or responsibility for any costs, losses or damages due to defective or failed Product claims to the extent that the claims result from: (a) Solectron’s compliance with Zhone’s supplied Specifications and/or manufacturing processes, (b) inadequate operating environment, accident, disaster, neglect, abuse, or misuse, (c) design flaws or design parameters exceeding or violating component specifications, (d) external or environmental factors after shipment from Solectron, (e) follow-on handling, processing, or manufacturing of Products after shipment of the Product from Solectron or the SLC, as applicable, (f) repair, attempted repair, modification, or alteration of the Product by a party other than Solectron, (g) electrostatic discharge damage (not caused by Solectron), (h) defects related to components provided by third party suppliers selected by Zhone, which defects Solectron could not reasonably detect, prevent or control, and (i) Products for which Zhone has not provided functional or other tests to adequately diagnose failures. |
Solectron makes NO WARRANTY as to software which is supplied on an “AS IS” basis. Likewise, Solectron makes NO WARRANTY as to prototypes, pre-production units, or units shipped at Zhone’s request with less than the testing provided for in the work order for production units.
| 15.4 | THE WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION ARE IN LIEU OF, AND SOLECTRON EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS AND ZHONE WAIVES ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR ARISING BY COURSE OF DEALING OR PERFORMANCE, CUSTOM, USAGE IN THE TRADE OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE. |
13
| 15.5 | Zhone represents and warrants to Solectron that it is the owner of all proprietary rights in the information provided to Solectron in order to manufacture the Products, and that it has the unqualified right to make available to Solectron, material and other information, including drawings, designs and specifications, and the order management and fulfillment system. Additionally, Zhone represents and warrants to Solectron that it is the owner of software provided to Solectron hereunder and/or has the right to supply the software. Zhone hereby grants to Solectron a license to use and reproduce the software, and any other documentation or information provided to Solectron for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement. |
| 16.0 | Breach; Remedies and Termination |
| 16.1 | The following failures in performance will be deemed a Material Breach by the applicable party: |
| (i) | material failure by Solectron to meet committed delivery dates; |
| (ii) | material failure by Solectron to maintain the quality standards set forth in Section 12.1; |
| (iii) | failure by Zhone to pay for Products or Services as required under this Agreement. |
| 16.2 | If either party fails to meet any one or more of the terms and conditions as stated in this Agreement, or upon the occurrence of a Material Breach, Solectron and Zhone agree to negotiate in good faith to resolve such default or Material Breach. If the defaulting party fails to cure such default or Material Breach, or submit an acceptable written plan to resolve such default or Material Breach within thirty (30) days following notice of default or Material Breach, the nondefaulting party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by furnishing the defaulting party with written notice of termination, which termination shall be effective within thirty (30) days of the date of such notice. |
| 16.3 | Either party may immediately terminate this Agreement if the other party (i) becomes insolvent; (ii) enters into or file a petition, arraignment or proceeding seeking an order for relief under the bankruptcy laws of its respective jurisdiction; (iii) enters into a receivership of any of its assets; or (iv) enters into a dissolution of liquidation of its assets or an assignment for the benefit of its creditors. |
| 16.4 | Upon termination of this Agreement or individual Statement of Work, Zhone agrees to reimburse Solectron for applicable charges as set forth in Sections 9.1 and 10.1. Except for termination due to Zhone’s default or Material Breach, Solectron shall, at Zhone’s election, complete all work in process and deliver such Product to Zhone’s designated location. Upon any termination, Solectron shall work cooperatively with Zhone to ensure the orderly transfer of the Products to Zhone or its designated third party in a manner so as to minimize any adverse impact to Zhone. |
| 17.0 | Dispute Resolution |
14
| 17.1 | In the spirit of continued cooperation, the parties intend to and hereby establish the following dispute resolution procedure to be utilized in the unlikely event any controversy should arise out of or concerning the performance of this Agreement. |
| 17.2 | It is the intent of the parties that any dispute be resolved informally and promptly through good faith negotiation between Solectron and Zhone. Either party may initiate negotiation proceedings by written notice to the other party setting forth the particulars of the dispute. The parties agree to meet in good faith to jointly define the scope and a method to remedy the dispute. If these proceedings are not productive of a resolution, then either party may choose to escalate the problem to senior management. |
| 17.3 | Should any disputes remain existent between the parties after completion of the two-step resolution process set forth above, or in any event, more than thirty (30) days following written request by a party to escalate the dispute to senior management, then the parties shall promptly submit any dispute to mediation with an independent mediator as administered by the American Arbitration Association. In the event mediation is not successful in resolving the dispute, the parties agree to submit the dispute to binding arbitration in accordance with the then-current Commercial Rules and supervision of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration will be held in the US headquarters city of the party not initiating the claim before a sole arbitrator who is knowledgeable in business information and electronic manufacturing services. The arbitrator will not have the power to award any damages excluded by, or in excess of, any damage limitations expressed in this Agreement. Issues of arbitrability will be determined in accordance solely with the federal substantive and procedural laws relating to arbitration; in all other respects, the arbitrator will be obligated to apply and follow the substantive law of the state specified in this Agreement. Each party will bear its own attorney’s fees associated with the arbitration and other costs and expenses of the arbitration will be borne as provided by the rules of the American Arbitration Association. |
| 18.0 | Limitation of Liability |
| 18.1 | OTHER THAN DAMAGES ARISNG OUT OF SECTION 4.1 AND SECTION 10.1, IN NO EVENT, WHETHER AS A RESULT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF USE OR DATA OR INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS, WHETHER OR NOT EITHER PARTY WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE. |
| 18.2 | Solectron is performing work per specifications provided by Zhone. Therefore, Solectron shall not be liable for the technical adequacy or design of the product(s); nor shall Solectron be liable for the safety or regulatory compliance of the Product(s), including but not limited to ensuring that the Products meet applicable government or responsible agency regulations. Should the Products or changes fail to meet the applicable approvals, standards or regulations, Solectron may cease production until Zhone and Solectron agree to required changes and applicable qualifications are met, without being in breach of this Agreement. Zhone is responsible for obtaining required |
15
| approvals relative to any changes and will be responsible for all costs attributable to such requirements. Zhone agrees to indemnify and save Solectron harmless from and against all losses, expenses or damages arising out of any claim resulting from Solectron’s compliance with Zhone’s specifications. |
