The terms set forth in the following sections will be applicable to Seller and Seller Group at all times during the Term whether or not there are any Purchase Orders or Commercial Agreements in effect between the Parties: 12, 13, 14,16 and 23.

1. Acceptance – Complete Agreement

1.1. Buyer and Seller have a binding agreement with respect to Items when Seller accepts Buyer’s Purchase Order or when Buyer and Seller enter into a Commercial Agreement, each of which is deemed to include these Terms.

Buyer will have the right to be represented by its own counsel of its choosing in any such suit or action at Seller’s sole cost and expense.

12. Confidentiality. Seller will keep the Confidential Information confidential and will not disclose all or any part of it to any third-party.

If a Security Incident occurs, the written notice will summarize the nature of the incident, the suspected lost, compromised, or stolen data, if known, and the corrective action taken or to be taken by Seller. Seller will take prompt corrective actions and will fully cooperate with Clarience and the applicable Buyer in all efforts to mitigate or rectify such Security Incident. In addition, any Seller that collects, accesses, stores or otherwise handles Personal Data will adhere to Clarience’s Data Security and Incident Response Policies which are available upon request.

Seller will, at its own expense, keep in good condition and replace and refurbish, when necessary, all Buyer Property in its possession or under its direction or control necessary to produce Items for Buyer.

Seller will be liable for all costs, damages and expenses caused by or resulting from its default under a Contract.

b. Buyer may terminate a Contract, in whole or in part, if Buyer no longer requires Seller’s Items or Services due to reduction, termination or conclusion, in whole or in part, of Buyer’s contract with its customer (“Obsolescence”). In the event Buyer terminates the Contract due to Obsolescence, Buyer will provide Seller with written notice of such termination. Within 10 business days of receipt of the Obsolescence termination notice, Seller must provide Buyer with a written claim documenting the amount of raw and work in process inventory Seller has on hand that can be used for Items along with any finished goods inventory on hand (an “Obsolescence Claim”). The Obsolescence Claim must be consistent with Buyer’s firm releases and must include sufficient supporting data to permit Buyer and its customer to verify and substantiate the Obsolescence Claim. Buyer will not be responsible for reimbursement of any Obsolescence Claim or any damages suffered by Seller related to Obsolescence, but will make reasonable efforts to obtain payment for such Obsolescence Claim from its customer and will reimburse Seller to the extent it is successful in recovering payment of such Obsolescence Claim from its customer.

Seller may terminate a Contract only for default by a Buyer if each of the following events occurs: (a) Buyer fails to pay the purchase price for Items: (b) Buyer’s non-payment for such Items is thirty (30) or more calendar days past due; (c) such unpaid past due amount is material; (d) Seller first provides Buyer written notice specifying the amounts past due for such Items and Seller’s intent to terminate the applicable Contract if such past due amount is not paid; and (e) Buyer, within ten (10) business days following its receipt of such written notice from Seller, does not either (x) pay such past due amounts; or (y) notify Seller that the amounts claimed to be unpaid are disputed by Buyer. Seller’s damages in such event shall be limited to the Contract price for delivered finished Items and the actual cost of work-in-process and raw materials in each case to the extent reasonable and authorized in Buyer’s firm releases (which will, at Buyer’s sole option, become Buyer’s property upon payment in full).

19.4. Termination by Either Party. Either Party may terminate a Contract, without liability to the other Party, if: (a) the other Party admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due, commences a bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, or similar proceeding, or makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or (b) the other Party becomes a debtor in a bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, or similar proceeding commenced by a third party that is not dismissed within 30 calendar days after commencement.

20. Termination for Convenience. Buyer may terminate a Contract at any time without cause in whole or in part by written notice, whereupon Seller will stop work on the date and to the extent specified in such notice and terminate all orders and subcontracts that relate to the terminated Contract only. Within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of termination notice, Seller shall submit all claims for actual costs set forth below resulting from such termination, if any. Buyer will have the right to verify such claims by auditing the relevant records, facilities, work or materials of Seller and/or its subcontractors. Buyer will pay Seller the contract price for finished Items accepted by Buyer as well as for the documented actual cost to Seller of work in process and raw materials allocable to the terminated Contract. Such payment constitutes Buyer’s only liability for termination with title and right of possession to all delivered Items work in process and raw materials vesting in Buyer immediately upon Buyer’s tender of such payment at Buyer’s sole option. In no event will Buyer be required to pay for finished Items, work in process or raw materials which Seller fabricates or procures in amounts that exceed those Buyer authorizes in firm delivery releases nor will Buyer be required to pay for any Items or materials that are in Seller’s standard stock or that are readily marketable. Payments made under this Section will not exceed the aggregate price for finished Items that would have been produced by Seller under firm delivery or release schedules outstanding at the date of termination.

21. Remedies; Waivers. The rights and remedies reserved to Buyer in the Terms, a Purchase Order and/or a Commercial Agreement are cumulative and in addition to any other or additional rights and remedies available at law or in equity. Nothing in a Purchase Order or a Commercial Agreement will be claimed or deemed to limit or exclude those remedies otherwise available to Buyer at law or in equity, and no disclaimers or modifications or attempted disclaimers or modifications of any express or implied warranties relating to the Items by Seller will be valid or effective. Without limiting the foregoing, if any Items fail to conform to the warranties provided by Seller, Buyer will notify Seller and Seller will, if requested by Buyer, reimburse Buyer for any incidental and consequential damages caused by the nonconforming Items, including costs, expenses and losses incurred by Buyer (a) in inspecting, sorting, repairing or replacing nonconforming Items; (b) resulting from production interruptions, (c) conducting recall campaigns or other corrective service actions, and (d) claims for personal injury (including death) or property damage caused by such nonconforming Items. No waiver of any breach of any provision of the Terms, a Purchase Order and/or a Commercial Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other breach or a waiver of such provision. Buyer’s failure at any time to require strict performance by Seller of any provision the Terms, a Purchase Order and/or a Commercial Agreement shall not waive compliance with other requirements hereof, nor shall it waive Buyer’s right thereafter to demand strict compliance therewith.

22. Survival of Obligations.
