Yihao may issue an invoice for Liquidmetal Products any time after the shipment thereof to Liquidmetal. Payment terms are net 30 days after the date that Liquidmetal receives the invoice. Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Order or as otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, payment shall be made in U.S. Dollars.

Yihao will work diligently with Liquidmetal in an effort to reduce waste, enhance productivity, and decrease Prices through reductions in the cost of producing Liquidmetal Products, all without adversely impacting quality or delivery times. Throughout the term of this Agreement, Yihao and Liquidmetal will work cooperatively and take advantage of cost saving technologies and other cost reduction opportunities to assist in maintaining a competitive cost position. The Parties shall meet on a quarterly basis to discuss specific cost reduction and productivity enhancement activities (collectively, the “Activities”). In support of these efforts, Liquidmetal shall provide to Yihao its own estimates of direct sales costs, including commissions, inspections, modifications, inventory, repackaging, shipping/receiving, duties & tariffs, warranty services, and current overhead rates.

逸昊在向Liquidmetal发货后，可随时开具Liquidmetal产品的发票。付款期限为 Liquidmetal 收到发票之日后的 30 天。除非适用的命令另有说明，或双方以书面形式约定，否则应以美元付款。

逸昊将努力与Liquidmetal合作，通过降低Liquidmetal产品的生产成本，减少浪费，提高生产率，降低价格，而不会对质量或交货时间产生不利影响。在本协议的整个任期内，逸昊和Liquidmetal将合作，利用成本节约技术和其他成本降低机会，协助保持具有竞争力的成本地位。缔约方应每季度举行会议，讨论具体的成本削减和提高生产力活动（统称为"活动"）。为支持这些努力，Liquidmetal公司应向逸昊提供其直接销售成本的估算，包括佣金、检查、修改、库存、重新包装、运输/接收、关税和关税、保修服务和当前间接费用。

In connection with any Order, Liquidmetal may concurrent with such Order or subsequent thereto from time to time provide Yihao with a six (6) month rolling forecast (each, a “Forecast”) of its projected additional purchases of Liquidmetal Products covered by an Order (“Additional Product”). Forecasts will be prepared in good faith. Yihao agrees to reserve sufficient manufacturing capacity to satisfy the supply of Additional Product in accordance with the applicable Forecast, provided that Yihao shall not be required to reserve in excess of ten percent (10%) of its manufacturing capacity pursuant to this Section 3.5.

Liquidmetal may from time to time request a price quote for certain Liquidmetal Products (each such request, a “RFQ”). Yihao agrees to provide a timely response to Liquidmetal’s RFQ either providing Liquidmetal with such requested quote (each, a “Quote”), or informing Liquidmetal of Yihao’s intent not to provide such requested quote (a “No-Quote”). Yihao agrees to provide a budgetary Quote within two (2) business days of receipt of an RFQ, and a formal quote within five (5) business days within receipt of a RFQ, or otherwise to provide a No Quote within one (1) business day of receipt of a RFQ.

Yihao agrees to manufacture and deliver Liquidmetal Products pursuant to Orders (or any changes thereto requested by Liquidmetal in writing). Each Order shall be in the form of a written or electronic communication. Liquidmetal and Yihao shall agree to the required Acceptance (as defined below) criteria before Yihao accepts an Order. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any disputed matter(s).

与任何订单有关，Liquidmetal可以同，或随后不时向逸昊提供其预计额外购买Liquidmetal产品（"额外产品"）的六（6）个月滚动预测（每个预测）。 预测将本着诚意进行。 逸昊同意根据适用的预测，保留足够的生产能力以满足附加产品的供应，但根据本第3.5条，逸昊不得需要保留超过其生产能力的10%（10%）。

Liquidmetal可能会不时要求某些Liquidmetal产品的价格报价（每个此类请求，一个"RFQ"）。 逸昊同意及时回应Liquidmetal的询价，要么向Liquidmetal提供此类请求报价（每份报价均为"报价"），要么通知Liquidmetal逸昊有意不提供此类请求报价（"无报价"）。逸昊同意在收到询价后两（2）个工作日内提供预算报价，在收到询价后五（5）个工作日内提供正式报价，或在收到询价后一（1）个工作日内提供无报价。

逸昊同意根据订单（或Liquidmetal要求的任何书面变更）生产和交付Liquidmetal产品。 每个订单应以书面或电子通信的形式执行。Liquidmetal和逸昊应同意要求的验收（如下所示）标准，然后逸昊接受订单。双方应真诚谈判，解决任何有争议的问题。

Yihao will make Liquidmetal Product shipments from Yihao’s facility of manufacture directly to Liquidmetal or, if directed by Liquidmetal in writing, to Liquidmetal’s customers (“Customers”) on behalf of Liquidmetal. In the event that Liquidmetal so directs, Yihao will use packaging provided by Liquidmetal indicating Liquidmetal as the seller of the Product.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing or in the applicable Order, all Liquidmetal Product shipments shall be EXW (Incoterms 2010) Yihao’s facility of manufacture in Dongguan, China. Title to and risk of loss or damage to the Liquidmetal Product shall pass to Liquidmetal upon Yihao’s tender of the Liquidmetal Product to the common carrier.

Acceptance of the Liquidmetal Product shall be based on characteristics that are measurable by a quality system and designed to demonstrate compliance with the Specifications.

Liquidmetal may upon sufficient notice make changes within the general scope of an Order. Such changes may include, but are not limited to changes in (1) drawings, plans, designs, procedures, Specifications or test specifications, (2) methods of packaging and shipment, (3) quantities of Liquidmetal Products to be furnished, or (4) delivery schedule. If appropriate, Liquidmetal will prepare an Engineering Change Order (“ECO”), and Yihao will communicate to Liquidmetal any change in Prices and/or delivery schedule. Each ECO shall be mutually agreed upon. Yihao shall not make any changes to the design, material, or process of manufacturing the Liquidmetal Products or any changes to the Specifications, expect as may be agreed in writing by Liquidmetal in each instance.

For avoidance of doubt, Liquidmetal is in the process of identifying a third party company for manufacturing in the United States as a “secondary source” to mitigate its business risk as well as to support customers and/or industries that may not desire or is precluded from doing business with companies in China due to trade or legal restrictions. It is understood by both Parties to this Agreement that Liquidmetal intends to utilize Yihao as its first and primary contract manufacturer and work with Yihao in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

逸昊将Liquidmetal产品从逸昊

的制造工厂直接运往Liquidmetal，或者，如果由Liquidmetal以书面形式指示，将代表Liquidmetal的客户（"客户"）发货。 如果逸昊直接发货，逸昊应使用Liquidmetal指定的包装，表明Liquidmetal是产品的销售商。

除非以书面形式或适用订单达成其他协议，否则所有Liquidmetal产品出货量均为 EXW（2010 年国际交易）逸昊在中国东莞的制造工厂。 Liquidmetal产品损失或损坏的所有权和风险，应当在逸昊向普通承运人招标时转交Liquidmetal公司。
