The goods licensed or sold under this Agreement, and the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, which may include technology and software, are subject to the customs and export control laws and regulations of the United States (“U.S.”) and may also be subject to the customs and export laws and regulations of the country in which the products are manufactured or received. Further, under U.S. law, the goods shipped under this Agreement may not be sold, leased or otherwise transferred to restricted countries, or used by a restricted end-user or an end-user engaged in activities related to weapons of mass destruction including, without limitation, activities related to designing, developing, producing or using nuclear weapons, materials, or facilities, missiles or supporting missile projects, or chemical or biological weapons. Supplier acknowledges that it is Supplier’s responsibility to comply with and abide by those laws and regulations, and that any customer or vendor that Supplier requests that Seagate route Product to directly has also been made aware of the associated export controls.

For Product that must be cleared through customs, Supplier must provide customs documentation (sometimes referred to as a “proforma invoice” or “customs invoice”) for the purpose of facilitating customs clearance. The customs documentation must be in English and must include the following information:

1. SHIPPING INFORMATION

	§		Date of shipment;
	§		Invoice number and shipment number;
	§		Seagate purchase order number;
	§		Shipper name and address;
	§		Ship to party (name and address) and ▇▇▇▇ to party (name and address);
	§		Supplier Custom Broker (name);
	§		Wood packaging material adherence with ISPM15 ( International Standard for Phytosanitary Measures No. 15) (i.e., must be either heat treated or fumigated with methyl bromide and marked with an approved international ▇▇▇▇ certifying treatment);
	§		Name, contact information and signature of responsible individual — must be a responsible employee of the exporter who has knowledge or who can readily obtain knowledge of the transaction;
	§		Incoterm and named place; and
	§		Shipment gross weight.

2. PRODUCT INFORMATION

	§		Description of Product, grade or quality, as well as marks, numbers, and symbols under which the Product is sold, if applicable — for product description, use generic terms by which each item is commonly known.
	§		Product quantities, including quantity of Product per each individual package/box, the number of packages/boxes, the number per pallet, the number of pallets, and the corresponding weights – the information must be sufficiently detailed to enable identification and matching of Product in the shipment against line items on the shipping invoice;
	§		Seagate part numbers

	§		Seagate Descriptions as indicated in P.O.
	§		Quantities
	§		Unit of Measurement
	§		Country of origin (place of manufacture) by part and quantity
	§		FCC ID number, if any
	§		FDA accession number, if any; if the invoice contains multiple pages, each page must be number, preferably in the following format: X of Y pages
	§		Product net metric weight
	§		Manufacturer’s Identification code/MID number (for textile products shipped to the U.S.)
	§		Third Party product appraisal report on used equipment (if applicable)
	§		Product classification information including:

	§		All charges upon the Product, itemized by name and amount, including freight, insurance, commission, cases, containers, coverings and cost of packing, repair and calibration;
	§		Total purchase price and terms of payment – customs regulations require every shipping invoice accurately reflect the price to be paid by Seagate. The shipping invoices are used to declare the value of the imported Product for customs entry. Software purchases must indicate the full purchase price of the software regardless of delivery method, e.g. CD-ROM, download. Accordingly, 100% accuracy is required. Post-shipment price increases can render declarations inaccurate; therefore, price increases may not be applied to Product already shipped or in JIT or VMI inventories;
	§		All “free of charge” items must have a commercial value listed for Customs purposes.

Any goods or services furnished to Supplier for the production of the Product not included in the invoice price (e.g. assists such as dies, molds, tools, engineering work) — however, goods or services furnished in the destination country are excluded.

Commitment to Seagate’s Quality Requirement

1. Yield Benchmark. [****].

2. Product Stewardship Requirements. Seagate’s current Product Stewardship Requirements are referenced in Exhibit C. Seagate will update the Product Stewardship Requirements from time to time and will make the updated versions available to Suppler. Updated versions of the Product Stewardship Requirement will automatically be incorporated into, and become a part of, this Agreement without any further action by the parties. Supplier must immediately notify Seagate if any of its Products include chemicals or compounds in amounts that exceed the threshold amounts listed in the Product Stewardship Requirements. Each shipment of Products to Seagate will constitute a certification by Supplier that the Products shipped meet the Product Stewardship Requirements. Upon Seagate’s request, Supplier will provide sufficient documentation to Seagate to show that the Products conform to the Product Stewardship Requirements. Supplier will maintain processes and policies designed to protect the environment and employee health and safety at any facility where services related to this Agreement are performed.

3. ISO 9000 Certification. Supplier must have a total quality system in place that meets ISO 9000 certification requirements.

4. Corrective Action. Whenever a Product does not perform as warranted, Seagate may request that Supplier implement a containment plan within [****] after the failure. Supplier must provide Seagate with a detailed failure analysis identifying root cause within five days after the failure. Supplier will work with Seagate to determine the effect of the failures on Seagate’s products and customers; and Supplier will implement a corrective action plan that is acceptable to Seagate to eliminate the effect of the failures on Seagate’s products and customers. Supplier will maintain the effectiveness of all corrective actions implemented as well as apply these corrective actions to other Products when and where applicable.

5. Epidemic Failure; Product Recall. In addition to the warranty in Section 7 of the Agreement, Supplier will be obligated to remedy any Epidemic Failure of Products. An Epidemic Failure will be defined as the occurrence of multiple failures of the same Products for the same cause, to the extent that the failure rate of the Products exceeds Seagate’s allowable DPPM described in the Specifications If there is an Epidemic Failure, then Seagate may require Supplier to accept return of all affected Products and Seagate may elect to recall and return to Supplier any affected Products that have been incorporated into Seagate’s products and distributed to Seagate’s customers or end users. If Seagate recalls affected Products from Seagate’s customers or end users, [****] will BEAR THE COST OF recalling and returning the Products. Seagate to provide documentation detailing costs.

6. Failure Rate. With respect to each Product, Supplier shall comply with the failure rate limit(s) set forth below. Supplier will report to Seagate the failure rates for each Product on a monthly basis. If the actual failure rate for any Product exceeds the goal, then Supplier will designate a team that will determine the root cause of the failure and will report to Seagate at weekly meetings until the actual failure rate for the Product is below the goal.

Early Failure Rate Defective Parts Per Million (“DPPM”). The early failure rate DPPM, which represents the line fallout in Seagate’s printed circuit board assembly, substrate, media and drive build factories, shall be less than [****] DPPM. Supplier will demonstrate the early failure rate DPPM by performing appropriate accelerated life testing on a statistically significant number of parts, which are representative of the fabrication and package assembly processes. If the Supplier’s process is not in control, then a [****] test screen under appropriate environmental stress conditions may be required to achieve the desired reliability level.

Defective Parts Per Million (“DPPM”). During the volume production phase, the DPPM shall be no greater than [****] DPPM.

Even if a Product passes Seagate’s initial drive qualification testing and meets the Specifications during the Product qualification procedure, the Product will be deemed to have failed Seagate’s Quality Standards if any Seagate disc drive incorporating the Products fails to achieve its specifications and the failure is proven to be attributable to the incorporated Products. When material does not meet Seagate’s Quality Standards, Supplier is expected to make commercially reasonable efforts to assist Seagate in satisfying Seagate’s overall quality objectives and in re-qualifying the Product for use by Seagate. Commercially reasonable efforts include, but are not limited to, repair, replacement with new Product, or return of Product with full credit in accordance with terms of this Supply Agreement.

7. Quality Standard. To meet Seagate’s Quality Standards, Supplier agrees:

(a) To produce Product in accordance with all applicable Seagate Specifications and all documents referenced in Specifications, including but not limited to Exhibit C, Receiving Inspection and Testing Procedure, Discrepant Material Procedure, and General Inspection Plan (GIP) Procedures;

(b) To provide, at Seagate’s request, actual performance metrics;

(c) To comply with DPPM levels as established by Seagate;

(d) To conduct ongoing reliability testing of Products as defined by Seagate’s Quality Engineering department; and
