1 | Introduction |
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: |
2 | Definitions |
2.1 | “Annual Quantity” shall mean annual quantities of Polysilicon to be sold by NorSun and purchased by SunPower in accordance with this Agreement, expressed as a fraction of the output from JVCo initial plant set forth in Exhibit B |
2.2 | “Commercial Operation Date” shall mean the date when JVCo has made its first commercial sale of polysilicon produced at its initial plant, meeting the technical specifications set forth in Exhibit A. |
2.3 | “Business Year” shall mean the period beginning on January 1st and ending on December 31st of the same year. |
2.4 | “Initial Plant” shall mean the first Polysilicon plant to be erected by JVCo in Jubail Industrial City with an expected production capacity of a total of *** metric tons (MT) per year. |
2.5 | “Initial Plant Output” shall mean the total quantity of Polysilicon produced at the Initial Plant during one Business Year. |
2.6 | “Polysilicon” shall mean the polycrystalline silicon, meeting the technical specifications set forth in Exhibit A, manufactured by JVCO and sold to NorSun who in turn sells such polycrystalline silicon to SunPower hereunder. |
3 | Obligations to sell and purchase Polysilicon, forecasts and delivery schedule |
3.1 | For the period from the Commercial Operation Date through 31 December 2019, NorSun shall be obliged to sell and SunPower shall be obliged to purchase Polysilicon in the quantities (expressed as a fraction of the Initial Plant Output) and in accordance with the schedule set forth in Exhibit B. The specifications for the Polysilicon are set forth in Exhibit A, as such specifications may be amended from time to time by mutual written agreement of the parties. SunPower shall have the right to reject Polysilicon (in accordance with Sections 7.3 and 7.4 below) which does not meet such specification. Any such rejected quantities shall not constitute “actually delivered” pursuant to Section 3.2 (ii) below. |
3.2 | This Agreement is a “take or pay agreement” such that NorSun is required to deliver and sell and SunPower is required to accept and pay for quantities of Polysilicon set forth in the third column of Exhibit B at the prices set forth in the second column of Exhibit B, subject only to i) the adjustments set forth in this Agreement and ii) with respect to SunPower’s obligation to accept and pay for the Polysilicon, that NorSun actually delivers such quantities at the agreed dates (“Delivery Dates”) set forth in Exhibit B; provided, however, in the event that JVCo fails to sell and deliver polysilicon to NorSun under the NorSun II Offtake Agreement (as defined in the JVA), NorSun shall be relieved from any delay or failure to fulfill its corresponding obligations hereunder except as provided in Section 3.4 below. |
3.3 | In the event that SunPower fails to order and take delivery of its contracted volume in a given Business Year, and such failure is not otherwise excused under this Agreement, NorSun shall invoice SunPower for the differential at full contract price and SunPower will pay the same within 30 days of invoice date. SunPower specifically acknowledges and accepts that it will be liable for the full purchase price of volume differential between the quantity ordered and the contracted volume. |
3.4 | In the event that NorSun fails to deliver polysilicon contracted by SunPower in accordance with section 3.1 above and Exhibit B, and such failure is not triggered by (i) JVCo’s failure to deliver polysilicon to NorSun under the NorSun II Offtake agreement as set forth in section 3.2 above, (ii) a Force Majeure event or (iii) delay in the completion of the Initial Plant as set forth in section 10, SunPower has the right to purchase the relevant quantity of Polysilicon from any third party provider (“Third Party Polysilicon”) and to have NorSun reimburse SunPower for the reasonable price difference, if any, between the price set forth in Exhibit B and the price SunPower has paid the said third party provider. Notwithstanding clause (i) above, if JVCo fails to deliver polysilicon to NorSun under the NorSun II Offtake Agreement, NorSun shall be obligated to, at the cost of SunPower, exercise its rights to recover monetary damages from JVCo in connection therewith and |
forward the amount of such recovery to SunPower up to the price difference described in the preceding sentence. SunPower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate its damages in procuring Polysilicon from any third party in such circumstances. |
4 | Price and quantity |
4.1 | The price and quantity of Polysilicon to be purchased by SunPower from NorSun are as set forth in the second and third column of Exhibit B. All prices are FCA NorSun, Jubail, Saudi Arabia (Incoterms 2000). Subject only to the price adjustments set forth in Section 4.2, these prices are fixed for the term of this Agreement set forth in Section 9 below. |
4.2 | On January 1 of each year beginning January 1, 2015, NorSun shall adjust prices on the Polysilicon on an annual basis to reflect any change in the price of polysilicon under the NorSun II Off-take Agreement, Exhibit C. |
5 | Purchase Orders |
5.1 | SunPower shall issue to NorSun monthly purchase orders (hereinafter referred to as “Purchase Orders”). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, SunPower shall in each Business Year issue Purchase Orders for a total of the Annual Quantity applicable to each Business Year. |
5.2 | The quantity of Polysilicon to be delivered in each calendar month shall be specified in the Purchase Orders. SunPower shall issue the Purchase Orders on a monthly basis, no later than three (3) months before the actual delivery month starts. Together with each Purchase Order, SunPower shall also provide an estimate of the quantity of Polysilicon to be delivered during the two successive months after the actual delivery month, provided, however, that such estimate shall not be binding upon SunPower or NorSun. Under no circumstances shall the quantity of Polysilicon to be ordered each month be less than eight percent (8%) of the Annual Quantity for that Business Year. |
5.3 | SunPower shall ensure that the Purchase Orders, unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties, are issued monthly and shall, at a minimum, contain the following information: (i) reference to this Agreement, (ii) identification of the Polysilicon by proper name, price, and quantities, (iii) delivery instruction and delivery place, (iv) delivery date and (v) issue date. SunPower shall send Purchase Orders by ordinary registered mail or comparable means allowing tracking, and SunPower shall send a copy to SunPower on the issue date either by e-mail or telefax. |
5.4 | A Purchase Order shall be binding for NorSun only after it is received and its conditions have been confirmed by NorSun. NorSun shall send confirmation of a Purchase Order by e-mail, or alternatively telefax, and registered letter. If NorSun fails to object to the Purchase Order within 15 days after SunPower’s issue date, then such Purchase Order shall be deemed accepted by NorSun. Notwithstanding the foregoing, NorSun shall not |
reject the quantity in a Purchase Order as long as such quantity is not more than 10% of the Annual Quantity. |
5.5 | In the event of a discrepancy between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and an individual Purchase Order, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall prevail unless the parties in writing agree otherwise. |
6 | Payment. |
6.1 | Payment terms are net 30 days from the date of each undisputed invoice. Finance charges of ***% per month (***% per annum) may be assessed on payment past due from the payment due date to the date payment is received. |
6.2 | If SunPower fails to pay invoices when due or finance charges when assessed, NorSun may delay future shipments. |
7 | Delivery; Warranty; Inspection. |
7.1 | Title and risk of loss with respect to all Polysilicon shall pass to SunPower at Jubail harbor, Saudi Arabia, in accordance with the FCA, (Incoterms 2000) rules. |
7.2 | If Polysilicon is not delivered within six (6) weeks following the requested delivery date, NorSun will pay SunPower liquidated damages at a rate of *** percent (***%) of the gross purchase price applicable to such shipment per week thereafter, up to a maximum of *** percent (***%).The foregoing liquidated damages address late delivery shipments only and are independent of NorSun’s liability (if any), and SunPower’s corresponding ability to recover damages, for NorSun’s failure to deliver its commitments pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 3.4). |
7.3 | NorSun warrants that the Polysilicon will be free from defects and conform to the specifications set forth in Exhibit A, provided that NorSun is notified of any defects or non-conformity within thirty (30) days after the relevant Polysilicon has arrived at the SunPower Delivery Point, however no later than three (3) months after delivery in accordance with Section 0, and that the defect or non-conformity is shown to be due to NorSun’s faulty design, workmanship, material or packaging. An inspection of the appearance of each Polysilicon delivery package shall be made by SunPower within 30 days after arrival of Polysilicon at the SunPower Delivery Point. In the event of any warranty claims, SunPower shall notify NorSun whereupon NorSun shall have the right to undertake its own inspection. If NorSun has not received a written notification within the time limits set forth in this section 7.3, the Polysilicon shall be regarded as accepted. For the purpose of this section 7.3, the “SunPower Delivery Point” shall be identified no later than thirty days prior to the first scheduled delivery date, and SunPower may modify such location with at least 30 days prior written notice to NorSun. |
7.4 | In the event that the Polysilicon does not meet the Exhibit A specifications, SunPower shall have the right to reject such defective Polysilicon and return them to NorSun.
