authorization (b) any failure of the Product to conform to such
warranties as a result of improper maintenance, installation or
service, operation or use contrary to furnished instructions, (c) the
transportation or improper storage of such items, or (d) any abuse,
misuse, neglect, or negligence of Gateway or its end-users. It is
understood and agreed that the Product shall be used in connection with
and as components of a larger system, and that such inclusion into the
larger system does not and shall not constitute an unauthorized
alteration or change in the Product; provided that the design and
implementation of such inclusion into the larger system is in
conformity with Specifications.
C. The warranties set forth in Sections 11, 12, 17, 18, and 27 are the
only warranties made by SUPPLIER to Gateway with respect to the
Products purchased hereunder. SUPPLIER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH REGARD TO PRODUCTS SOLD PURSUANT TO THIS
AGREEMENT AND ATTACHMENTS, INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. EXCEPT FOR
LIABILITY ARISING UNDER SECTION 12 (INFRINGEMENT INDEMNIFICATION) OR
SECTION 15 (PRODUCTS LIABILITY), IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE
LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, ARISING
OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SALE, USE OR PERFORMANCE OF PRODUCT.
D. For purposes of this Agreement, "Warranty Returns" shall be defined as
Products that have been delivered to Gateway or by Gateway to its
customers and rejected due to Defect(s).
i. All Warranty Returns will require a Return Material Authorization
(RMA) number, which SUPPLIER will issue within 48 hours upon
receipt of a written notice from Gateway identifying the Defective
Products and the quantity thereof. If Gateway does not receive the
RMA number within 48 hours, Gateway will issue an RMA number that
will be honored by SUPPLIER. SUPPLIER will pay all costs
associated with the return of the product to SUPPLIER.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event a
Defective Product has been discovered and additional Products with
the same Defect are already in transit, SUPPLIER is responsible
for reworking such defective equipment into Product that is free
from Defects and meets mutually agreed upon Specifications.
ii. All Warranty Returns shall be returned to SUPPLIER within thirty
(30) days of issuance of the RMA notice.
iii. All Warranty Returns shall be for credit only and shall be debited
by Gateway against outstanding invoices payable to SUPPLIER unless
otherwise stated in the SOW (Attachment G).
Page 5 of 14
iv. SUPPLIER will acknowledge receipt of returned Product and the
quantities received within five (5) business days of receipt of
the returned Product from Gateway. If SUPPLIER fails to give
written acknowledgment of receipt and quantities received within
the time stated, SUPPLIER shall be deemed to have received from
Gateway the Products and quantities listed on the vendor return
form.
v. SUPPLIER shall support Gateway product return addresses for each
Gateway region: Americas, Asia Pacific (APAC) and Europe / Middle
East / Africa (EMEA).
vi. SUPPLIER and Gateway shall mutually agree to procedures and
guidelines (Attachment G-Statement of Work) for the conduct of
business for returned Products in the United States. This
procedure may be modified from time to time by mutual consent of
the parties and shall be part of the Agreement (See Attachment G).
SUPPLIER accepts financial responsibility for all warranty related
support costs incurred by Gateway associated with the handling of
quality Defects incurred within the warranty period, when such Defects
exceed the DPPM established in Attachment A. Such costs shall include,
but are not limited to, the following: transportation, labor associated
with technical assistance, customer service, receiving, shipping,
processing, testing, etc.; and inventory devaluation should `repaired'
Product be returned in lieu of `new'. SUPPLIER agrees to reimburse
Gateway upon receipt of an invoice or debit memo. If a debit memo is
issued in lieu of an invoice, SUPPLIER agrees that such monies may be
deducted from any outstanding invoices yet to be paid. Attachment E
further describes warranty related support costs and is referred to as
`Total Adjusted Cost', or more commonly known as the total cost of
ownership. Gateway expects suppliers to consistently improve their
product quality. While zero Defects may not be attainable, the
Defective Parts Per Million (DPPM) goal for commodities covered by this
Agreement (see Attachment A) will be reduced over time to constantly
improve quality. Gateway agrees to waive this section for Boston
Acoustics as long as Boston Acoustics adheres to the requirements
outlined in Attachment G (Statement of Work).
E. Isolated incidences of Product Defect or failure are to be dealt with
in accordance with the standard Warranty Return procedures outlined in
paragraph D above. However, the same Defect or failure which occurs
repeatedly in a Product is referred to in Gateway nomenclature as an
"Epidemic Failure." For purposes of this Agreement, an "Epidemic
Failure" shall be defined as a single failure type, if the failure
occurs in * of any Product
shipped or Total Installed Base (total of SUPPLIER Product(s) installed
in Gateway systems) under this Agreement to Gateway during any *
month period. As an integrator and original equipment manufacturer
of personal computer systems, Gateway employs a "just-in-time"
manufacturing methodology and does not have a wealth of supplier
components in reserve. Gateway's manufacturing approach is reiterated
here to emphasize that an Epidemic Failure in a component can be
catastrophic and paralyze production. Time is of the essence concerning
Epidemic Failures and Gateway will strictly enforce the following
procedures.
i. SUPPLIER accepts full responsibility for Product Defects. SUPPLIER
shall respond to formal written corrective action request (CAR).
There are three (3) types of CARs: "Critical" (an identified
safety Defect, non-shippable, causes line shutdown, GREATER THAN
* of field failure, cannot be sorted); "Major" (not
identified as a Safety Hazard, causes line shutdown, can be
sorted); or "Minor" (not identified as a Safety Hazard, no line
shutdown situation, can be sorted). Upon notification or receipt
of samples for a failure analysis, SUPPLIER must respond with
corrective actions in accordance with the following "time is of
the essence" periods: Critical failures -- within *
business days; Major failures -- within * business
days; and Minor failures -- within * business days.
ii. All Corrective Actions must be corrected by upgrading all of the
Products shipped within the * month period prior to
Gateway's notice to SUPPLIER thereof. SUPPLIER shall provide parts
for the upgrades, perform or have performed all associated labor,
and pay for shipping of all replacement Products to Gateway or end
user as the case may be.

12.0 INFRINGEMENT INDEMNIFICATION
A. SUPPLIER hereby represents and warrants that neither the Products nor
the manufacture, use, sale, or distribution thereof infringe any
patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark, or other intellectual
property rights of any third party.
B. SUPPLIER shall defend, indemnify and hold Gateway, its directors,
officers, employees, distributors, dealers, affiliates, insurers and
customers, harmless against any claim, suit, action or proceeding
(collectively, "Claims") brought against Gateway or its customers based
on a claim that any Product or the manufacture, use, sale or
distribution of any Product purchased by Gateway hereunder constitutes
an infringement of any patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret or
other intellectual property right of any third party; provided that
Gateway notifies SUPPLIER in writing and provides, at SUPPLIER's
expense, the authority, information and assistance reasonably necessary
for SUPPLIER to defend or settle such Claims. SUPPLIER shall pay all
damages and costs incurred by or awarded against Gateway or Gateway's
customers related to or resulting from such Claims. If, as a result of
any such Claim, Gateway is enjoined from using, selling or distributing
any Product purchased by Gateway hereunder, SUPPLIER shall, at its own
expense, either (a) procure the right for Gateway and Gateway's
customers to use, sell and distribute such Product; (b) replace the
infringing Products with non-infringing products that have
substantially the same quality and performance; (c) modify any
infringing Product so it becomes non-infringing; or (d) authorize
Gateway to return the infringing Product and refund to Gateway the full
purchase price and any direct costs incurred by Gateway in connection
with such return.

potential safety hazard or unsafe condition in any of the Products
purchased by Gateway hereunder (a "Safety Hazard"), or is advised of a
Safety Hazard by competent authorities of any government having
jurisdiction over such Product, it will immediately advise the other
party by the most expeditious means of communication. The parties shall
cooperate in communicating with the public and governmental agencies,
and in correcting any Safety Hazard that is found to exist.
B. Each party shall consult with the other party prior to making any
statements to the public or to any governmental agency concerning

effect.
22.0 PROCEDURES FOR HANDLING OF DISPUTES
All disputes under this Agreement, of any nature whatsoever, shall be
handled in strict accordance with the following procedure, and the
parties agree that legal remedies cannot be resorted to until such time
that each step of this procedure has been followed:
A. The party raising a dispute shall formalize the dispute by setting
forth the issues relating thereto in written notice submitted to the
other party (a "Dispute Notice"). The submitting party shall include
with a Dispute Notice backup material sufficient, in the submitting
party's reasonable judgment, to substantiate the dispute and the amount
claimed thereunder. Each Dispute Notice shall be delivered to the other
party in accordance with Section 23 of this Agreement.
B. The Primary Representatives of the parties shall attempt to resolve the
dispute within thirty (30) days from submittal of the Dispute Notice.
The parties must mutually agree to the resolution.
C. Failing resolution under paragraph 22.B above, the dispute, including
all supporting documentation and the positions taken by the parties
during step B above, shall be submitted to the Senior Officers
designated by the parties in accordance with Section 21.B. The Senior
Officers of the parties shall attempt to reach a mutually agreed-upon
resolution of the dispute within thirty (30) days after the submittal
of the dispute to them.
D. Failing resolution under paragraph 22.C above, the dispute, including
all supporting documentation and the positions taken by the parties
during steps B and C above, shall be submitted for resolution to each
party's respective Chief Executive Officer or Chief Operating Officer
designated in accordance with Section 21.C above.
E. Failing resolution under paragraph 22.D above within thirty (30) days
after the dispute is submitted to the parties respective Chief
Executive Officers or Chief Operating Officers, then all disputes under
this Agreement shall be submitted to arbitration under the rules of the
American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The arbitration shall take
place in the State of South Dakota and all proceedings shall be in the
English language. The dispute shall be decided by one neutral
arbitrator, to be selected by the parties by providing to each other a
list of three (3) names. If the parties are unable to initially agree
on the arbitrator, the selection process will be as follows: the
parties will submit the initial list of six (6) names to the AAA; each
party will rank the six (6) names submitted in the order of their
choice; the first time a name in order of ranking on each list is
common (the level of ranking need not be common), that person shall be
selected as the arbitrator. Failing agreement under the procedure
described in the preceding sentence, the selection shall be made by the
AAA under its established rules. The parties shall agree on mutually
acceptable procedures and standards for the arbitration, including, but
not limited to: the authority of the arbitrator with respect to
discovery and procedures; the form of evidence and/or witness evidence
and presentation; the submission and/or hearing procedures; and other
such matters; provided, however, that the scope of the question to be
decided by the arbitrator shall be narrowly construed and shall be
limited to the express issue presented; and, provided, further, that
Page 11 of 14
the arbitrator shall have no authority to award incidental, exemplary,
special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages to or against
either party. In the event the arbitrator attempts to or does award
incidental, exemplary, special, indirect, consequential or punitive
damages in favor of either party, the jurisdiction of the arbitrator
shall be and is hereby automatically terminated and any decision as to
such damages shall be void and of no force or effect. The party
prevailing as to the entire claim shall have its costs and the other
costs of arbitration, including the arbitrator's fees, if any, paid by
the other party. If neither party prevails entirely, the arbitrator may
apportion such costs in accordance with the disposition of the matter.
The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the
parties, except as to the propriety of the scope of the award and
disposition; and provided that the decision of the arbitrator must not
be against public policy, nor may it be arbitrary or capricious, as
determined by whether it is fairly supported by the evidence presented
(including the failure, if any, of either party to comply with the
agreed-upon arbitration procedures), which shall mean that the decision
of the arbitrator must be such that it cannot be said that no
reasonable person could reasonably and logically have reached such
result based upon the said evidence.
F. Failure to Act. Failure to take any action on the part of either or
both parties under any step of this procedure for a specified thirty
(30) day period shall automatically move the dispute process to the
next step in the procedure. After having submitted a Dispute Notice in
accordance with paragraph 22A above, the completion of the thirty (30)
day time period in each step shall be deemed to constitute notice to
initiate the next step of the procedure.
23.0 NOTICES
Notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in

timely written notice of changes to any of the information provided to
Gateway pursuant to this paragraph. SUPPLIER agrees to indemnify and
hold Gateway harmless pertaining to errors or omissions or SUPPLIER's
failure to disclose pertaining to SUPPLIER-certified import or export
data. SUPPLIER agrees that it shall not export or re-export any
technical data, software and/or U.S.-origin Product that SUPPLIER
receives from Gateway except in compliance with all applicable U.S.
export control regulations, specifically including but not limited to
the U.S. Export Administration Regulations. This obligation is in
addition to any authorization required to be obtained from Gateway and
shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.
26.0 FEDERAL ACQUISITION REGULATIONS
Contract clauses from the Federal Acquisition Regulations ("FAR") (48
C.F.R. Chapter 1) follow and are incorporated herein by reference and

U.S. Government and will only flow down those mandatory clauses
required of commercial contractors. It is understood that cost and
pricing data will not be required; however, commercial catalogue

27.0 GENERAL
A. All rights and remedies, whether conferred hereunder, or by any other
instrument or law will be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or
concurrently. Failure by either party to enforce any term will not be
deemed a waiver of future enforcement of that or any other term. The
terms and conditions stated herein are declared to be severable.
Page 13 of 14
B. Neither party may assign or delegate any rights hereunder without the
prior written approval of the other party and any attempt to assign any
rights, duties or obligations hereunder without the other party's
written consent will be void.
C. These terms and conditions constitute the entire agreement between the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Those terms and
conditions will prevail notwithstanding any different, conflicting or
additional terms and conditions which may appear on any order submitted
by Gateway or order acknowledgment and/or acceptance issued by
SUPPLIER.
D. It is understood that neither party is constituted an agent, partner,
franchisee, employee or servant of the other for any purpose
whatsoever. Each party shall conduct its business in its own name and
shall be solely responsible for its acts, conduct and expenses and the
acts, conduct and expenses of its employees and agents.
E. Neither party shall publicly announce or disclose the existence of this
Agreement or its terms and conditions or advertise or release any
publicity regarding this Agreement without the prior written consent of
the other party. This provision shall survive termination of this
Agreement. Breach of this provision by SUPPLIER shall be considered a
material breach of this Agreement and Gateway may, in its sole
discretion, terminate this Agreement immediately upon delivery of
notice to Supplier and without penalty to Gateway.
F. SUPPLIER represents, warrants and covenants that it has not in the
past, and will not in the future, offer or give any payments, gifts,
gratuities, or anything of value to any Gateway employee or
representative. Any violation of this provision will entitle Gateway to
recover liquidated damages from SUPPLIER equal to the amount of the
payment or gift and any and all expenses and costs (including
attorneys' fees on an indemnity basis) incurred in enforcing this
provision. The liquidated damages provision contained herein applies
only in the event that SUPPLIER breaches this provision, and Gateway
reserves all remedies available to it by law or in equity in the event
that SUPPLIER breaches any other provision of this Agreement. In the
event that the liquidated damages provision contained herein shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, Gateway reserves the
right to pursue all remedies available to it by law or in equity.
G. If any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such
determination shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions
unless Gateway determines, in its discretion that the court's
determination causes this Agreement to fail in any of its essential
purposes.
H. The headings provided in this Agreement are for convenience only and
shall not be used in interpreting or construing this Agreement.
I. The parties agree that their respective rights, obligations and duties
which by their nature extend beyond the expiration or termination of
this Agreement shall survive any expiration or termination of this
Agreement.

ATTACHMENT C
CENTER FOR PRODUCTION REPLENISHMENT PROCEDURE
This procedure supplements the terms and conditions of the Agreement of which it
is a part between Gateway and SUPPLIER for the purchase and sale of Products. In
the event any terms and conditions in this procedure conflict with any terms and
conditions contained in the Agreement, the terms and conditions of this
procedure shall govern. This procedure outlines the manner in which SUPPLIER
shall respond to forecasts and Orders issued by Gateway.
1. On a weekly basis, Gateway shall provide to SUPPLIER a * week
rolling forecast indicating both model numbers and associated quantities of
Product. The forecast shall set forth Gateway's required deliveries of Product
for each week for the first * weeks of the forecast. The balance of
Gateway's requirements may be indicated in monthly quantities.
2. Promptly upon execution of this Agreement and thirty (30) days prior to the
first day of each calendar quarter commencing thereafter, Gateway agrees to
provide to SUPPLIER a blanket purchase order to permit SUPPLIER to respond to
the "pull signals" set forth in Article 5 below. Gateway is responsible for
ensuring that there remains sufficient value on the blanket purchase order to
cover the value of all Product pulled; if the value of the Product so pulled is
greater than the value remaining on the blanket purchase order, SUPPLIER will
withhold shipment and notify Gateway. Gateway may at any time issue additional
blanket purchase orders to increase the quantities of Product that may be pulled
as provided herein consistent with the rolling forecasts provided to SUPPLIER.
3. SUPPLIER shipments shall be delivered to a designated Center for Production
Replenishment ("CPR") as set forth in Attachment B, or directly to a Gateway
manufacturing site as prescribed by Gateway, in quantities consistent with
Gateway's forecast. SUPPLIER, however, will deliver Product in quantities
consistent with SUPPLIER's standard pallet quantities.
4. Transportation of Product will be in accordance with the following:
4.1 If Gateway is responsible for selecting the carriers used to ship
Product from SUPPLIER's shipping point to the CPR, Gateway shall be responsible
for all shipping costs including applicable insurance coverage for the loss or
damage of such Product in an amount equal to the actual cash value of the
Product, less deductible, of any damaged, lost or destroyed Product. Such
insurance shall cover the Product for the entire period from the date of
shipment from the SUPPLIER's point of origin until received by Gateway from the
CPR location or otherwise. Upon any loss or damage of Product while in transit
or while at the CPR, SUPPLIER shall provide all necessary claim documentation to
Gateway and/or its insurance agent in a timely manner, and shall additionally
cooperate in the administration of the claim. Within five (5) business days of
receipt of proceeds from its insurance carrier, Gateway will reimburse SUPPLIER
for the covered loss or damage amount less the deductible. Except as otherwise
expressly agreed, title to Product shall remain with SUPPLIER until pulled from
the CPR. SUPPLIER shall be responsible for all insurance coverage for Product
remaining in the CPR longer than thirty (30) days.
4.2 If SUPPLIER is responsible for selecting the carriers used to ship
Product from SUPPLIER's shipping point to the CPR, Product will be shipped FOB
destination, freight prepaid and charged back to Gateway according to Section 8,
Title and Delivery. Insurance and risk of loss shall be assumed by SUPPLIER.
4.3 In no event will title to Product pass to Gateway prior to receipt
by Gateway at its designated manufacturing facility.
5. On a frequency determined by the rate at which Gateway consumes Product,
Gateway's manufacturing site will transmit a pull signal by facsimile or other
agreed upon means to communicate to the CPR the model numbers (part numbers) and
quantity of Product required. The sole responsibility for transmitting timely
pull signals rests entirely with Gateway. Gateway understands and agrees that
the transmission of a pull signal is authorization for the CPR operator to ship
Product to Gateway and for SUPPLIER to invoice Gateway against the blanket
purchase order for the models and quantities set forth in the transmission.
6. SUPPLIER agrees that there shall be available to Gateway at least *
days of inventory as established by the quantities set forth in Gateway's
then-current forecast, unless other amounts are mutually agreed to in writing.
7. SUPPLIER agrees to expend commercially reasonable efforts to comply with a
request for additional quantities issued by Gateway. SUPPLIER shall have two (2)
working days to acknowledge receipt of said request. If such additional
quantities result in a
[Gateway logo]
change in SUPPLIER's costs or in the time for performance, an adjustment in
price and time for performance will be made by the parties in writing.
8. Gateway shall have no liability for any Product held by SUPPLIER or the CPR
operator that exceeds the blanket purchase order in anticipation of Gateway's
transmission of a pull signal.
9. If, for any consecutive four (4) week period, Gateway's purchase quantities
are less than the quantities held by SUPPLIER consistent with the forecasts
submitted by Gateway in anticipation of orders, SUPPLIER reserves the right to
direct the quantities represented by the difference to other accounts and shall
have no liability to Gateway for such diverted quantities.

ATTACHMENT D
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE FORM
SUPPLIER represents and warrants that all Products which are supplied to Gateway
by SUPPLIER in the form contemplated by the parties under the terms and
conditions of the Agreement to which this document is attached, are designed and
intended to be used prior to, during, and after the calendar year 2000 A.D.
Accordingly, the following requirements will be part of the Agreement to which
this document is attached, in addition to and not in limitation of all other
representations and warranties between the parties:
1. Except as expressly set forth in paragraph 7 below, SUPPLIER represents and
warrants that the Product will function as specified below, without
interruption, prior to, during, and after the calendar year 2000 A.D.
2. SUPPLIER represents and warrants that the Product shall consistently handle
date information before, during and after January 1, 2000, including but
not limited to accepting date input, providing date output, and performing
calculations on dates or portions of dates, and that the Product will
operate during each such time period without error relating to date data,
specifically including, but not limited to, any error resulting from,
relating to, or the Product of, date data which represents or references
different centuries or more than one century and any errors resulting from
or relating to calculations, processing or sequencing employing date data.
3. SUPPLIER further represents and warrants that, if the Product is to respond
to two-digit date input, it shall do so in a way that resolves any
ambiguity as to century in a disclosed, defined and predetermined manner.
4. SUPPLIER further represents and warrants that the Product will store and
provide output of date information in ways that are unambiguous as to
century.
5. SUPPLIER further represents and warrants that the Product will correctly
determine leap years, being years during which an extra day is added in
February (February 29th). SUPPLIER acknowledges leap years are correctly
determined to occur in all years divisible by 400, and all other years
evenly divisible by 4 except those evenly divisible by 100. For example:
1996 is a leap year since it is divisible by 4; 1900 is not a leap year
since it is divisible by 100 but is not divisible by 400; 2000 is a leap

TOTAL ADJUSTED COST (TAC) PERFORMANCE DATA
&
SUPPLIER DEBIT/XXXX BACK PROCEDURES
Remedial actions necessitated by Epidemic Failures and/or latent Defects for
warranted Product(s) are resource intensive and an expensive proposition for
Gateway, its suppliers and clients. These are real, unplanned, unnecessary and
largely preventable costs that directly affect Gateway's profitability. While
not as readily quantifiable, but even more important to Gateway, are the
customer dissatisfaction consequences and erosion of customer confidence in our
products when Gateway experiences an Epidemic Failure, Product recall or
isolated latent Defect. Gateway's program to address and handle such unwarranted
costs is known as 'Total Adjusted Cost'. Highlights of the program are as
follows:
1. SUPPLIER commits to the DPPM quality goal set forth in Attachment A for
each SUPPLIER Product which is common to all suppliers within the specific
commodity provided. The goals for each of the commodities acquired under
this Agreement are as follows:
2. Field returns caused by latent quality Defects which exceed the DPPM goal
as described above, will generate special 'Xxxx Back' provisions in which
the SUPPLIER is required to pay Gateway.
3. While the SUPPLIER agrees to warrant the Product itself and to provide
credit at the cost sold on any such Product returned due to quality
Defects, provided such Defects fall within the warranty period, SUPPLIER
also agrees to reimburse Gateway for those related support costs which
include, but are not limited to, the following: transportation and in-house
labor expenses as described in Section 11 of this Agreement. These costs
vary by commodity and are available upon request.
4. Each calendar quarter, related support costs associated with latent Defects
which exceed the DPPM goal will be billed to the SUPPLIER or debited and
deducted from any outstanding invoices.
5. Supporting evidence for all Defects will be provided to SUPPLIER upon
request.
6. DPPM goals may change from time to time due to newly introduced product and
continuous improvement objectives. Changes to DPPM goals will be and will
be mutually agreed to by the parties.
7. Performance within the stated DPPM goal will be looked upon favorably by
Gateway. No monies or credit, however, will be provided by Gateway to
SUPPLIER whose performance falls within their respective quality goal.

SUPPLIER SECTION DEFINITIONS
BOX # 4 - PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: This box should include a general description of
the item.
BOX # 6 - COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: Place where the article was manufactured (not the
place where the shipment originated). If the article has been processed in more
than one country, the country of origin is the last country in which the article
underwent a "substantial transformation." In other words, further work or
material added to an article in another country must effect a "substantial
transformation" in order to render such other country as the country of origin.
A substantial transformation occurs when articles lose their identity and become
new and different articles of commerce, having a new name, character or use.
XXX # 0 - XXX (XXXXXXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXXX) NUMBER: A 10 digit classification
that is used by the various Customs services to classify product for
import/export on a worldwide basis. Should you require assistance in determining
the classification for your product, you may access U.S. Custom's web site at
XXX.XXXXXXX.XXXXXXX.XXX, OR CONTACT YOUR LOCAL CUSTOMS OFFICE OR BROKER.
BOX # 9 - EXPORT CONTROL CLASSIFICATION NUMBER ("ECCN"): A 5 digit
classification used to identify applicable export licensing requirements. NOTE:
ECCN is not the same as a HTS classification or a Schedule B classification.
Within each ECCN a given item will defined under a particular paragraph or
subparagraph. For a complete description of each ECCN's composition, see Section
738.2(c) of the Export Administration Regulations (15 CFR Part 738). Should you
require assistance in determining the classification for your product, you may
contact the Bureau of Export Administration's Export Counseling Division at
(000) 000-0000 or (000) 000-0000, or at "xxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx".
BOX #S 10 & 10A - PROCESSOR TYPE, SPEED AND CTP RATING IN MTOPS: For purposes of
this field, "processor" means a monolithic integrated circuit or multi-chip
integrated circuit containing an arithmetic logic unit (ALU) capable of
executing a series of general purpose instructions from an external storage. It
normally does not contain integral user-accessible storage, although storage
present on-the-chip may be used in performing its logic function. The definition
includes chip sets that are designed to operate together to provide the function
of a processor.
BOX # 11 - U.S. FEDERAL COMMUNICATION COMMISSION ("FCC") ID NUMBER: The
manufacturer (or importer for an imported device) is required to ensure that the
measurements necessary to determine compliance with the technical standards are
performed. A copy of the measurement report showing compliance with FCC
standards must be retained by the manufacturer and, if requested, be submitted
to the Commission. U.S. importers are required to submit an FCC form with their
import shipments.
BOX # 12 - U.S. FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION ("FDA")/ACCESSION NUMBER: Section
536(a) of the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of
1968) requires that all imported electronic products, for which applicable
radiation performance standards exist, shall comply with the standards and shall
bear certification of such compliance. U.S. importers are required to submit an
FDA form with their import shipments.
BOX # 13 - "MASS MARKET" TREATMENT: This treatment is available for software
that is generally available to the public by being: 1) sold from stock at retail
selling points, without restriction, by means of over the counter transactions,
mail order transactions, telephone call transactions, or internet transactions;
and 2) designed for installation by the user without further substantial support
by the supplier (See 15 CFR Section 740.13). NOTE: "Mass market" treatment is
not available for encryption software unless the length of the encryption string
is 56 bits or less and the software has undergone a one time review by the U.S.
Department of Commerce (See 15 CFR Sections 742.15(b)(1), Supplement No. 6 to
Part 742 and 748.3(b)(3)).
BOX # 14 - ENCRYPTION SOFTWARE: Computer programs that provide capability of
encryption/decryption functions or confidentiality of information or information
systems. Such software includes source code, object code, applications software,
or operating system software.
XXX # 00 - ONE TIME REVIEW BY THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE: Refer to 15 CFR
Section 742.15 and Supplement No. 6 to Part 742.

APPENDIX 1
MINIMUM COSMETIC / PERFORMANCE TEST CRITERIA
1.0 Cosmetic Criteria
1.1 External Surfaces:
1.1.1 A class A surface is defined as any surface of the
Product that can be viewed while the system face is
toward the inspector (top, front, and sides).
1.1.2 A class B surface is defined as any surface on the
back of the Product.
1.1.3 A class C surface is defined as any surface on the
underside of the Product.
1.2 Surface Defects
1.2.1 A DEFECT is defined as any condition of a Product
that is different from the Product's original surface
Specifications. (i.e.: scratches, scuffs and flaws.)
(A xxxxx would be considered a damaged surface.)
1.2.2 A MAJOR DEFECT is defined as any surface of a Product
that has one or more defects that renders the part
inoperative or consumes the majority of the surface
from the standard viewing distance of 24 inches (or
arm's length).
1.2.3 A MINOR DEFECT is defined as any surface of a Product
that has one or more defects, and is noticeable in
normal light from the standard viewing distance of 24
inches (or arm's length).
NOTE: All inspection should be done in normal
lighting conditions. Lighting should be bright
enough for easy and efficient viewing and directed so
that it does not create glare. Inspection viewing
time should not exceed 5 seconds per surface. The
standard viewing distance is 24 inches (or arm's
