Epidemic Failure Event definition

Epidemic Failure Event means the occurrence of an Epidemic Failure.
Epidemic Failure Event means the Product failures (i) having a similar cause related to a particular component, verified by the supplier, and by OEM, or an independent third party on behalf of OEM, (ii) occurring at any time during the applicable warranty period (as set forth in Section 17) with respect to the particular Product (iii) resulting from defects in materials, workmanship, manufacturing process or design or failure to conform with the Specifications, (iv) [***]. Upon occurrence of an Epidemic Failure Event, the remedies of this Section 16 shall apply to the entire Product population affected by the root cause failure until corrective action is complete. Supplier’s obligation to ensure that components meet the Specification include, but are not limited to, incoming quality control, sub-tier audits, statistical process control, control of workmanship, outgoing quality inspection and all other relevant elements of quality set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 16 shall apply or be enforced with respect to third party components listed below only during the respective warranty period set forth in Section 17: [***] Upon occurrence of an Epidemic Failure Event, OEM shall promptly notify Supplier, and shall provide, if known and as may then exist, a description of the failure, and the *** Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been requested with respect to the omitted portions. suspected lot numbers, serial numbers or other identifiers, and delivery dates, of the failed Products. OEM shall make available to Supplier, samples of the failed Products for testing and analysis. Upon receipt of product from OEM, Supplier shall promptly provide its preliminary findings regarding the cause of the failure. The parties shall cooperate and work together to determine the root cause. Thereafter, Supplier shall promptly provide the results of its root cause corrective analysis, its proposed plan for the identification of and the repair and/or replacement of the affected Products, and such other appropriate information. Supplier shall recommend a corrective action program which identifies the affected units for repair or replacement, and which minimizes disruption to the end user. OEM and Supplier shall consider, evaluate and determine the corrective action program. Upon occurrence of an Epidemic Failure Event, Supplier shall: (a) at OEM’s option: (i) e...
Epidemic Failure Event means Product failures (i) having the same or similar cause, verified by Vendor, Buyer, or an independent third party on behalf of Buyer, (ii) occurring within five (5) years after the date of delivery of the Product to Buyer, (iii) resulting from defects in materials, workmanship, manufacturing process, design, or failure to conform with the Buyer specifications, (iv) having a one-month failure rate equal to or in excess of the rate calculation defined as two times (2x) the most current, consecutive six-month (or any other mutually agreed upon, currently monitored duration) rolling average failure rate where the failure rate is calculated by dividing the number of unit failures by the unit population or installed base (Failure Rate = N unit failures / N unit population) (“Threshold Failure Rate”). The Threshold Failure Rate will apply to all Products unless Buyer and Vendor have agreed in writing to an alternative metric for a particular Product. Upon occurrence of an Epidemic Failure Event, the remedies in Sections 12.2 and 12.3 of this Order will apply to the entire Product population affected or potentially affected by the root cause failure (“Affected Product”).
