In the event of any dispute between the parties, such dispute will be settled exclusively in a court of law. Exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any action arising under the Purchase Agreement will be in the federal and state courts located in Franklin County, Ohio, and Buyer and Seller consent to such jurisdiction and venue for this purpose.

In return for Buyer agreeing to enter into the Purchase Agreement, Seller grants to Buyer an option during the term of such Purchase Agreement and for ten (10) years thereafter to purchase component parts of any deliverables, including those which become obsolete during the term of such Purchase Agreement, at the lowest price at which Seller sells such parts.

If, during the term of the Purchase Agreement, Seller makes an offer to sell any such products or services to a third party at a lower price or upon one or more terms that are more favorable than the price or terms then applicable under the Purchase Agreement, then an equivalent reduction or modification of terms will apply to all products or services purchased thereafter for the balance of the term of the Purchase Agreement.

(e) If at any time during the term of the Purchase Agreement:
(i) a third party makes a competitive offer to sell products or services pursuant to one or more terms (including price, volume, quality and/or payment terms) that are more favorable to Buyer than the terms then in effect under the Purchase Agreement (the “Favorable Terms”), then Seller will meet, or notify Buyer that it will not meet, such Favorable Terms within fourteen (14) days of receipt of Buyer's notice thereof. Seller's failure to meet such Favorable Terms within such fourteen (14) day period shall be deemed a decision not to meet such Favorable Terms regardless of whether Seller specifically notifies Buyer thereof.

(ii) Buyer anticipates that it may receive a competitive offer from a third party to sell products or services on Favorable Terms through an internet web based trading platform (an “On-Line Offer”), and Seller is provided with a written invitation to participate in the applicable on-line event that may result in an OnLine Offer at least seven (7) days prior thereto, then Seller will meet, or not meet, the Favorable Terms of the On-Line Offer during the on-line event.

Upon Buyer's request, Seller will provide written evidence that Seller is properly licensed to collect the taxes paid by Buyer.

(g) If the Purchase Agreement obligates Buyer to buy a percentage of its product requirements from Seller, reasonable amounts of product purchased from a third party supplier for purposes of qualifying such products shall be deemed excluded from Buyer's requirements and can be used by Buyer for commercial production and sale.

6. QUANTITY TERMINATION; ORDER CHANGES. (a) Buyer may, by written notice to Seller, terminate its purchase of any quantity of products or services (i) for convenience, (ii) if Seller fails to complete or deliver any part thereof when required, or (iii) if Seller is in breach of any material term of the Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, any provision of Sections 7, 8 or 9 below, immediately prior to the delivery thereof.

In no event shall Seller's ability to sell products or services at a better price or Seller's economic 9 hardship in buying raw materials necessary to manufacture products at a commercially reasonable price constitute Force Majeure.

(b) If Buyer or Seller is affected by Force Majeure, it will (i) promptly provide notice to the other party, explaining the full particulars and the expected duration of the Force Majeure and (ii) use its best efforts to remedy the interruption or delay if it is reasonably capable of being remedied. In the event of Force Majeure, deliveries or acceptance of deliveries of products or services which have been suspended will not be required to be made up on the resumption of performance and, to the extent not otherwise permitted under the Purchase Agreement, Buyer will have the right to purchase products and services from other sources during the period of Force Majeure. If a Force Majeure extends for more than sixty (60) days, the Purchase Agreement may be terminated upon written notice by the party not declaring Force Majeure without any liability on its part.

17. TERMINATION. (a) Buyer or Seller may terminate the Purchase Agreement upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice if the other party breaches any material term thereof or files for bankruptcy; provided, however that during such notice period, the party in default may cure its default and thereby abate the termination. In the event Seller has not complied in any respect with Sections 7, 8 or 9 above, Buyer shall have the right to immediately terminate the Purchase Agreement, without further compensation to the Seller and without Seller’s ability to abate the termination. In addition, Seller shall compensate Buyer for any damages suffered by Buyer as a result of Seller’s breach of Sections 7, 8 or 9 above. After receipt of a notice of termination, the Seller shall immediately: (i) stop work as directed in the notice; (ii) place no further subcontracts or purchase orders for materials, services or facilities, except as necessary to complete the continued portion of the Purchase Agreement; and (iii) terminate all subcontracts to the extent that they relate to the work terminated.

(b) Notwithstanding paragraph 17(a) Seller may only terminate a purchase order after giving Buyer reasonable notice of such termination, as well as an opportunity to identify and set up an alternate supplier.

Seller shall immediately inform Buyer of any Security Breach, where “Security Breach” is defined as any event involving an actual, potential or threatened compromise of the security, confidentiality or integrity of Buyer Personal Data, including but not limited to any unauthorized access or use, or any broader circumstances as defined in any applicable local law. Seller shall also provide Buyer with a detailed description of the Security Breach, the type of data that was the subject of the Security Breach, the identity of each affected person, and any other information Buyer may request concerning such affected persons and the details of the breach. Seller agrees to take action immediately, at its own expense, to investigate the Security Breach and to identify, prevent and mitigate the effects of any such Security Breach, and to carry out any recovery or other action (e.g., mailing statutory notices) necessary to remedy the Security Breach. The content of any filings, communications, notices, press releases, or reports related to any Security Breach (“Notices”) must first be approved by Buyer prior to any publication or communication thereof to any third party.

Seller agrees that it will comply with all legal requirements associated with transferring any Seller Personal Data to Buyer. Buyer will be the “Controller” of this data for legal purposes, and agrees
not to share Seller Personal Data beyond Buyer, its affiliates and their contractors, and to use reasonable technical and organizational measures to ensure that Seller Personal Data is processed in conformity with applicable data protection laws.
