-5-
Each purchase order will contain an express reference to this Agreement and will
state (i) the desired quantity and SKU of Instruments to be produced under such
purchase order, and (ii) shipment instructions for such Instruments. With the
exception of such quantity and shipping instructions, all other terms and
conditions of any purchase order shall be void and of no force or effect.
Notwithstanding the forgoing, each purchase order under the Agreement shall
specify the first requested delivery date under the purchase order, which shall
be no earlier than [**] from the date of the purchase order, and no later than
[**] from the date of such purchase order.
6.2 KMC shall accept all NX purchase orders, with respect to
quantities ordered, and will provide written acknowledgement of its acceptance
to NX within [**] of KMC's receipt of such purchase order. If KMC fails to
respond to NX within said [**], the purchase order shall be deemed accepted by
KMC as issued by NX with respect to (i) and (ii) in Section 6.1 hereof. The
first requested delivery date under the first purchase order under this
agreement shall also be accepted by KMC so long as it falls within the timelines
set forth in section 6.1 above. All terms and conditions of any acknowledgement
in addition or contrary to the provisions of this Agreement shall be void and of
no force or effect.
6.3 Each purchase order under this Agreement shall be in increments
of [**] units of the Instrument and shall be provided by NX to KMC no later than
[**] prior to the scheduled delivery of the last unit of Instrument under the
Original Agreement or the previous purchase order under this Agreement (as the
case may be). NX shall submit purchase orders in accordance with the applicable
Forecast.
6.4 No later than [**] prior to the first delivery requested under
the first purchase order under the Agreement, NX shall provide to KMC a good
faith forecast of its anticipated Instrument delivery requirements for the [**]
period commencing [**] from the date of such forecast (the "Initial Forecast").
No later than [**] prior to the first delivery under the Initial Forecast, NX
shall provide to KMC a good faith forecast of its anticipated Instrument
delivery requirements for the [**] period commencing [**] from the date of such
forecast (the "Second Forecast"). At the first day of the calendar month of the
first delivery under the Second Forecast, and at the start of each calendar
month thereafter, NX shall provide to KMC a good faith rolling forecast of its
anticipated Instrument delivery requirements for the [**] period commencing with
the date of such forecast (the "Rolling Forecast", collectively with the Initial
Forecast and the Second Forecast, the "Forecast").
6.5 The [**] of each Forecast shall constitute a firm, binding and
irrevocable commitment by KMC to deliver the specified quantity of Instruments
and by NX to accept such Instruments, provided, however, that the delivery
request for the first month of each Forecast may not vary from the delivery
request for that month under the immediately preceding Forecast, and that the
delivery request for the second month of each Forecast may not be in excess of
[**] percent ([**]%) of the delivery requests for that month under the
immediately preceding Forecast ("Delivery Commitment"). Except as otherwise
provided hereunder, delivery requests for the remainder of the Forecast shall be
non-binding.
6.6 If the quantity of Instruments requested to be delivered under
the [**] of any Forecast is in excess of the Delivery Commitment, KMC shall use
its reasonable commercial
-6-
efforts to deliver all such excess delivery requests by NX. KMC shall promptly
advise NX in writing whether KMC will satisfy the excess delivery requests by
NX. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that in any event, KMC shall not be
in breach of its obligations hereunder for not satisfying delivery requests that
are in excess of the Delivery Commitment.
6.7 In the event that any Delivery Commitment is [**], then KMC
reserves the right to [**]. Such [**] with any such [**], and which such [**].
KMC will apply best efforts to avoid and/or minimize such [**] arrangements
[**]. [**] materials will be [**] delivered against open purchase orders on a
pro-rata basis.
6.8 Extensions due to Materials. The arrangement presented under
this Agreement for delivery scheduling, and the timing of purchase order
authorizations by NX and actual manufacture of Instruments by KMC, is predicated
upon a maximum material lead-time of less than [**] and the delivery schedule
under the forecasts. In the event that material is identified for the Instrument
that requires a longer lead-time, or KMC identifies that its material purchase
orders may not suffice due to its delivery of Instruments in excess of its
Delivery Commitment, KMC and NX will make appropriate arrangements, including if
necessary for advance material procurement authorizations, as needed to preserve
KMC's ability to meet its Delivery Commitment under this Agreement.
7. UNIT TRANSFER PRICE FOR COMMERCIAL PRODUCT UNITS
7.1 Unit Transfer Price. Except as set forth in the next sentence,
the unit transfer price for each Instrument manufactured hereunder by KMC (the
"UNIT TRANSFER PRICE") during the Initial Term is set forth in Attachment 5. The
Unit Transfer Price for any purchase order that includes the [**] units of the
Initial Term, and for purchase orders to be provided during any Extension Term,
shall be negotiated in good faith between the parties. Such good faith
negotiations shall commence not later than [**] prior to such purchase order
during the Initial Term and any Extension Team.
7.2 Adjustments to Unit Transfer Price. For each purchase order
hereunder:
(a) Within [**] of a request by NX, KMC shall provide to NX a
current costed Xxxx of Materials for the Instrument.
(b) KMC shall have the right to adjust the Unit Transfer Price
to reflect increases in its costed Xxxx of Materials for the Instrument,
provided that any such adjustments shall be limited to an amount equal to
the product of the increase in Material Cost [**].
(c) In the event the cost of raw materials is decreased for
any reason, the then Unit Transfer Price shall be decreased by KMC by an
amount equal to [**] of the product obtained by multiplying the reduction
in the cost of raw materials and [**].
(d) The parties acknowledge and agree that the Unit Transfer
Price takes into account the cost of labor for the continuous production
of units of the
-7-
Instrument at a minimum consecutive monthly run-rate of [**] units. In the
event such agreed upon minimum number of units per month is not produced
in each month of any [**] due to NX's decision, action or omission, then
the Unit Transfer Price shall be increased to reflect the additional
direct or indirect costs incurred by KMC, which increase shall be mutually
agreed upon by the parties in good faith.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Unit
Transfer Price may not be increased pursuant to Sections 7.2(b) and 7.2(d)
to reflect increases in the Material Cost or the cost of labor, if a
production delay charge has been paid by NX pursuant to Section 6.7, and
such increase in the Material Cost or to the cost of labor is due to the
same production delay.
7.3 Disposition of Spare Parts and Obsolete Materials.
(a) All materials consumed by NX as spare parts shall be
purchased by NX from KMC at the following xxxx-up structure:
Spare Part Cost = Total Cost [**];
Total Cost = (Manufacturing Cost + Material Cost) [**];
Manufacturing Cost = Direct Manufacturing Cost (actual labor cost
incurred by KMC)[**]; and
Material Cost = Direct Material Cost (actual raw material cost
incurred by KMC)[**].
(b) Any pre-paid materials that have become obsolete shall be
returned to NX. Within [**] of such return NX shall pay for such obsolete
materials according to the following xxxx-up structure: ((Material Cost
[**]).
8. WORK SCOPE CHANGES AND ECOS
8.1 Work Scope Changes. Either NX or KMC may, from time to time,
propose a change in, or an addition to, the work scope in accordance with this
Section. Such proposed change or addition may be a change in the TDP or
additional work that is required or recommended to satisfy the overall goals and
requirements of NX.
8.2 Process for Work Scope Changes. If NX proposes such change or
elects to proceed with consideration of any proposed change by KMC, KMC will
prepare and submit to NX a written Work Request. After its receipt of the Work
Request, NX, in its sole discretion, will determine whether or not to approve
the Work Request. If NX determines to proceed with the changes detailed in the
Work Request, then within [**] after its receipt of the Work Request, NX will
notify KMC of that determination by signing and returning to KMC the subject
Work Request. Failure to respond to KMC within such [**] shall constitute a
rejection of the Work Request. KMC will implement changes approved by NX in
accordance with the Work Request
-8-
and the provisions of Section 8.3 below. All changes to TDP will be affected by
ECO prepared by KMC and approved by NX.
8.3 Invoicing for Services Rendered under Work Request. Unless
otherwise stated on the Work Request, KMC will submit invoices to NX on a
monthly basis for actual expenses incurred, and for services rendered by KMC, in
implementing an approved Work Request. If the Work Request results in a change
in the Unit Transfer Price, once the change has been implemented, the change in
Unit Transfer Price will be reflected by amendment to the applicable NX purchase
orders and all subsequent invoices issued by KMC will reflect the amended Unit
Transfer Price.
8.4 Reimbursement for Unapproved Work Requests. If NX requests KMC
to prepare a Work Request that is expected to require an unusually large amount
of estimating effort, then KMC may ask NX to agree to reimburse KMC for the
actual cost of the estimating effort in the event that the Work Request is not
approved by NX. KMC may also ask NX to agree to reimburse KMC for the actual
costs associated with preparing routine estimates for NX solicited and
unapproved Work Requests if NX has requested and disapproved more than one such
Work Request per calendar quarter. Absent any such agreement by NX, KMC shall
not be obligated to prepare such Work Request.
8.5 Processing of ECOs. At the request of NX, KMC shall absorb the
cost of and not charge NX for non recurring work for processing ECOs up to the
aggregate amount of [**] Dollars ($[**]) per calendar year (calculated based on
KMC's rates as provided in Attachment 6). Any non recurring work required for
the processing of ECOs after KMC has absorbed the aggregate cost of [**] Dollars
($[**]) per calendar year, shall be billed by KMC to NX at KMC's rates as
provided in Attachment 6 and invoiced on a monthly basis. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, NX may at times request that a particular ECO not be absorbed by KMC
as part of the above [**] Dollars ($[**]), but shall be billed by KMC to NX at
KMC's rates as provided in Attachment 6.
9. INVOICING
9.1 Invoicing.
(a) KMC shall invoice NX for the Instruments manufactured
hereunder upon shipment thereof, at the then Unit Transfer Price.
(b) Upon placement of orders approved by NX for tooling and

for such tooling and test equipment shall be paid to KMC, together with a
material handling charge equal to [**] percent ([**]%) of the purchase
price, upon KMC's receipt of the subject tooling and test equipment.
(c) If during the Initial Term the available cash on hand of
NX should ever fall below $[**] Dollars) including, for these purposes,
monies immediately
-9-
available under any existing NX revolving credit facility, as reflected in
the books and records of NX, maintained in accordance with GAAP,
consistently applied, then NX shall immediately provide KMC with written
notice of such event and within [**] of written notice from KMC, either
(at NX's option) (i) pay for all production materials on order with
vendors, as well as any such materials already received by KMC but not yet
paid for, or (ii) provide KMC with an irrevocable letter of credit to
secure payment for such materials, issued by a U.S. commercial bank, in
such amount and in such form and substance reasonably acceptable to KMC.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, during the Initial Term,
NX shall provide to KMC, promptly following its availability, its balance
sheet for each calendar quarter of the Initial Term. NX shall provide to
KMC audited versions of such balance sheets if and when available, and if
so requested by KMC. KMC shall credit amounts paid by NX for production
materials to its invoices for the Instruments using such production
materials on a pro-rata basis.
9.2 Payment. All invoices shall be paid by NX, in full, within [**]
of the date of invoice. Failure to make full payment of KMC invoices within a
[**] period shall constitute a material breach by NX. Furthermore, KMC may
assess NX interest at the rate of one percent (1%) per month for the maximum
rate allowed by applicable law, whichever is lower, on any past due amount,
together with its costs of collection (including, without limitation, attorneys'
fees and expenses). All invoices shall be payable to KMC in Dollars to a bank in
the United States designated by KMC.
9.3 Dispute of Invoices. If NX disputes all or any part of an
invoice, NX shall provide KMC a notice of the dispute within [**] of its receipt
of such invoice, and shall timely pay any undisputed portion of the invoice. NX
and KMC agree to use all commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any disputes
concerning the payment of invoices under Section 9.1 hereof within [**] after NX
has provided such notice of dispute. If the parties are unable to resolve or to
compromise such dispute within such [**] period, each of NX and KMC agrees to
submit the dispute to be settled by expedited, binding arbitration with
J.A.M.S./Endispute in Boston, Massachusetts before a single arbitrator, in
accordance with the rules of such entity. The fees and expenses of the
arbitrator, as between KMC and NX, shall be borne by them in such proportions as
shall be determined by the arbitrator, or if there is no such determination,
then such fees and expenses shall be borne equally by KMC and NX.
9.4 Taxes. NX shall pay all taxes, fees and duties or other amounts,
however designated, including any value added taxes, which are levied or based
upon the fees and other amounts charged by KMC to NX under this Agreement;
provided that the foregoing shall not obligate NX to pay any taxes based on the
income, gross receipts or property of KMC.
