    A.
    Prices for Equipment, Items, Training and Services set forth herein shall remain fixed or decline for the duration of this Agreement unless agreed otherwise in writing by the parties.

    B.
    Throughout the term of this Agreement and any extensions thereto, Seller warrants to Buyer that the prices set forth in this Agreement or any addendum, in conjunction with the discounts offered herein for any Item, Equipment or equivalent Service, reflect the Seller's lowest price charged any customer of Seller for that Item, Equipment or equivalent Service regardless of any special terms, conditions, rebates or allowances of any nature.

6.     CONTINGENCIES

    Neither party shall be responsible for its failure to perform due to causes beyond its reasonable control such as acts of God, fire, theft, war, riot, embargoes or acts of civil or military authorities.

Buyer shall be responsible only for Equipment, Items or Services for which it has issued Releases hereunder.

    B.
    Seller shall notify Buyer's purchasing agent, (as noted on the Release), within twenty-four (24) hours if Seller is unable to make any scheduled delivery of Equipment or Items or perform Services as scheduled and state the reasons.

    Seller agrees to acknowledge each Release to Buyer (as noted on the Release) within seventy-two (72) hours after receipt of the Release.

    D.
    Buyer may place any portion of a Release on hold by notice that will take effect immediately upon receipt. Releases placed on hold will be rescheduled or cancelled within sixty (60) days. Any Release cancelled shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 5.

    F.
    Seller agrees that all Items will be delivered ready for shipment to the FCA point on the exact date specified in the Release ("Ship Date"). Late deliveries of any Items except Spare Parts (as measured by adherence to the Ship Date on the most recent Release or contractual committed lead-time, whichever is earlier) will result in, at Buyer's option, a price reduction (or debit to Seller's account) on such late Items of two percent (2%) for each calendar day late. In addition, Seller shall deliver, at its sole cost and expense, any late shipment of Items by expedited freight as instructed to Buyer's site. If Seller is unable to commit to the lead-times as defined in the Equipment Specific Terms and Conditions, the price reduction for late deliveries shall apply to the earlier of the committed Ship Date or the lead-time date calculated in accordance with Equipment Specific Terms and Conditions. —Partial deliveries are counted as late shipments and will only be considered complete when all Equipment and Items, (and other Spare Parts required to install and qualify Equipment, if applicable) have been shipped.

Such capacity must either be taken or released by Buyer within thirty (30) days of the written notification.

    At Buyer's discretion, Seller will make available up to [*****] of annual Forecasts of Equipment purchases (as measured in units of Equipment, and rounded up) for shipment within [*****] of the contractual lead-time (rounded up to the next week) of Release date. This provision may be applied once every lead-time as defined in Addendum D for each type/configuration of Equipment for which Buyer has provided a forecast.

    I.

    Configuration and other Buyer-requested or Buyer-approved changes that result in Ship Date changes will be reflected on a change order to the Release showing the revised ship and delivery dates subject to Section 7F.

    K.
    Seller will notify Buyer in writing of the planned obsolescence of any Equipment or Item or part revision and will make that Equipment or Item available to the Buyer for a minimum of [*****] days after the notice, during which time Buyer will have the option to place a final Release for such Equipment and Items for delivery after the [*****] day notice.

ADDENDUM B

ALCOHOL/DRUG-FREE WORKPLACE DIRECTIVE

        Intel is committed to fulfilling its legal and ethical responsibility to maintain a safe and efficient working environment on Intel premises. Supplier's drug and alcohol program shall be at least as stringent as Intel's. This means that at a minimum, Supplier shall ensure that all Contractors assigned to Intel premises shall pass a screen test (urine analysis) for drugs per the schedule outlined below within seventy-two (72) hours after the Supplier has identified the Contractor to be assigned to Intel.. For purposes of this Addendum B, the term "Contractor" refers to Supplier's employees or subcontractors providing Services to Buyer under the Agreement. Any Contractor who does not successfully pass the screen test within such seventy two (72) hour period will be barred access to all Intel facilities. In addition, when Intel has a reasonable suspicion that a Contractor is under the influence of alcohol or drugs in violation of Intel's standards, Supplier shall, at Intel's request, either perform immediate drug and alcohol testing of any Contractor so assigned, or shall remove the Contractor from the Intel premises.

        If a Contractor tests positive, that Contractor will be denied access to Intel premises and Intel will require return of that Contractor's security badge immediately. In addition, a corporate-wide "no-access" notation will be placed in the Intel corporate security database and no Application for Waiver will be considered by Intel.

        Supplier will be responsible for all testing and for maintaining of records for its Contractors. Supplier will also be responsible for prompt notification and removal of any Contractor found to be in violation of Buyer's Alcohol and Drug-Free Workplace Directive. This includes retrieving the Contractor's badge (including duplicate picture badges, Fab, AT, or other specialty access or permit badges and other property movement badges) and other Intel property, and depositing same at the nearest Intel security post.

        Also, Intel may, at its option, exercise its right to audit Supplier's personnel records related to compliance with Intel's Drug and Alcohol Directive to ensure that federally certified laboratories are being used and appropriate procedures are adhered to.

PROTECTION OF INTEL'S INFORMATION ASSETS

        Seller agrees to safeguard Intel's classified (i.e., Intel Confidential, Intel Secret, Intel Restricted Secret and Intel Top Secret) and proprietary information set out in the body of the parties' Agreement and relevant Unescorted Access Application forms for badges. Seller also agrees to use and apply Intel's information protection methods stated below in this Addendum in the performance of Seller's work. Seller agrees that this performance standard applies to all Intel classified and proprietary information, regardless of the medium (Intel's or Seller's) in or on which it is retained or communicated and to software that is licensed by Intel for its internal use.

        Seller is not automatically granted access to Intel classified and proprietary information, networks or software. However, authorization to use or access Intel information, software, or telecommunications may be granted by the Intel information owner if access is necessary and directly related to Seller's scope of work or duties. Unless specifically authorized, Seller may not use or access Intel classified or proprietary information that may be happened upon or inadvertently discovered while performing work under this Agreement. Neither may a Seller or Seller's employee control an Intranet web site at Intel.

        Seller shall not modify Intel classified or proprietary information, software, hardware, or telecommunications without the explicit permission of the Intel employee responsible for the resource, with the exception of contract-related requirements or resources that allow for individual customization (e.g., Microsoft Windows user features). The Seller's employees, agents, or subcontractors may not disclose Intel classified or proprietary information to their co-workers, except for disclosure to those similarly bound to protect Intel's intellectual property with a need to know to fulfill this Agreement.

        This Addendum outlines the Intel's minimum requirements for protection methods for all Intel classified or proprietary information and software that the Seller's personnel may come in contact with. Intel recognizes that the correct and proper protection of its information rests with its employees and Sellers who have been authorized access. Failure to comply with these requirements will provide grounds for immediate termination of this Agreement by Intel.
