Any such amount of Product which were determined to be excess at the end of any previous period.

(ii)

That quantity of any Product which has pending Company Purchase Orders which will consume it at any point in time in the future.

(iii)

Any amount of Product safety or buffer stock (that amount of Product inventory which Contractor customarily keeps on hand to cover unanticipated Company or Contractor’s other customer(s)’ purchase order increases).

(iv)

Any amount of Product inventory resulting from Improvements made to the manufacturing process that would have otherwise been consumed by Company or other Contractor’s customer(s)’ purchase order(s).

(v)

Any amount of Product inventory for which no Purchase Order(s) for such Product were placed by Company to Contractor. Contractor agrees not to release any work order for Product in quantities larger than prudent planning methods would require fulfilling a particular Company Purchase Order.

8.5.5 Indirect Materials: Contractor agrees not to include any quantity of indirect materials used in the manufacture of Product in the calculation of excess Product inventory.

8.5.6 Subsequent Demand for Excess Product Inventory: If demand for Company or Contractor’s other customer(s)’ products develops during the subsequent six-month period following the determination that excess Product inventory exists which would consume all or a portion of the excess Product, Contractor shall use the excess Product inventory to fulfill such demand. In this case, Contractor shall purchase back any Company owned excess Product needed to fulfill the new demand at the same price Company paid Contractor as defined in paragraph 8.5.3 above before manufacturing new Product to fulfill Company Purchase Order(s).

8.7 Purchase of 50% of Excess Materials and Product Inventory: In the event that Contractor elects for Company to purchase the excess materials inventory pursuant to paragraph 8.4. or the excess Product inventory pursuant to paragraph 8.5 of this Agreement, Contractor will perform a physical inventory of the excess Materials and Product, sequester the excess Materials and Product in a separate and secure area in such a manner as to preserve its quality and integrity, prepare an accounting of the excess Materials and Product indicating Company part number, type, quantity and value, and submit a statement reflecting such accounting to Company in writing through normally acceptable methods of physical or electronic transmission. Company has five (5) business days to review and accept Contractor’s excess inventory document unless additional information is required from Contractor. Both Company and Contractor agree to support each other and diligently work toward settlement for excess inventory. Once settlement is reached, Company will place a Purchase Order with Contractor for fifty percent (50%) of such inventory; subject to the limitation set forth in paragraph 8.3 of this Agreement entitled “Limitations of Support.” Contractor will prepare and submit a corresponding proper invoice to Company, and Company will reimburse Contractor in accordance with the invoice submitted under payment terms then existing, or as negotiated between Company and Contractor at that time.

				RFM ____

17.1 Principle of Allocation. The parties shall allocate the currency risks resulting in the sale of Product under this Agreement using an initial Base Conversion Rate of 1 United States dollar to 30.90 New Taiwan Dollars (the “Base Conversion Rate”). When New Taiwan dollars appreciate in excess of five percent (5%) against the Base Conversion Rate, Company shall reimburse Contractor fifty percent (50%) of the appreciation in value of the Product purchased during the applicable period. When New Taiwan dollars depreciate in excess of five percent (5%) against the Base Conversion Rate, Contractor shall reimburse Company fifty percent (50%) of the depreciation in value of the Product purchased during the applicable period.

17.2 Quarterly Measurement Process.

17.2.1 Initial Base Conversion Rate. The initial basis for comparison shall be the New Taiwan dollar to US dollar exchange rate agreed upon by the parties (Base Conversion Rate or “BCR”) based on NT$30.90 Per US dollar.

17.2.2 Quarterly Currency Exchange Measurement. The rate shall be reviewed every 3 months that correspond to RFM fiscal quarters (each a “Quarter Period”). For each Quarter Period, the currency exchange rate between the US Dollar and New Taiwan Dollar will be reviewed. The daily conversion rates, expressed arithmetically as the number of New Taiwan dollars that may be acquired with one US dollar, will be averaged for the period covered by the appropriate Measuring Dates (as defined in paragraph 17.2.3) to determine the “Most Recent Average” or “MRA”.

17.2.3 Quarter Periods. The date for measuring exchange rate changes for each Quarter Period (“Measuring Dates”) are the dates 5 days before the Quarter Period starts and 5 days before the Quarter Period ends for the first three fiscal quarters. This will allow time for the calculations to be done and approval of reimbursement dollar amount (if any) no later then the first day of the next quarter. The Quarter Period and Measuring Dates are as follows:


Quarter Periods		Measuring Dates
September 1 to November 30		August 26 to November 25
December 1 to February 28		November 26 to February 23
March 1 to May 31		February 24 to May 25
*June 1 to August 31		May 1 to July 31

* The Fourth Quarter Period also shall be used in the Annual Administrative Procedures described in paragraph 17.5.

				RFM ____

17.2.4 Determination of Need for Currency Pricing Adjustment. For each Quarter Period, Company will calculate the currency change as the difference between the Most Recent Average (MRA) and the Base Conversion Rate (BCR). The currency change is converted to a percentage by dividing the currency change by the Base Conversion Rate to arrive at the currency change percentage.

If the absolute value of the currency change percentage ((MRA-BCR)/BCR) is more than 5% or less than -5%, there shall be a Currency Pricing Adjustment, or “CPA”. If the currency change percentage is less than plus or minus 5%, no Currency Pricing Adjustment shall be made. This can be expressed by the formula:

If the value of (MRA-BCR)/BCR is more than +5% or less than -5%, a reimbursement payment for that Quarter Period shall be made as provided in paragraph 17.3.1 or 17.3.2.

17.3 Calculating Currency Pricing Adjustment (“CPA”). The Reimbursement amount calculation is per the formula and definitions below:

17.3.1 Negative CPA. If the value of (MRA-BCR)/BCR is less than—5% (Negative value); the US dollar has depreciated in relation to the New Taiwan dollar and therefore a payment shall be made by Company to Contractor on the terms and conditions of this Agreement Since this is a risk sharing arrangement, only half of the currency change percentage is to be incorporated into the CPA. This can be expressed by the formula:

CPA = ((MRA-BCR)/BCR)/2

, where CPA is a negative percentage

17.3.2 Positive CPA. If the value of (MRA-BCR)/BCR is more than 5% (Positive value) ; the US dollar has appreciated in relation to the New Taiwan dollar and therefore a payment shall be made by Contractor to Company on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Since this is a risk sharing arrangement, only half of the currency change percentage is to be incorporated into the CPA. This can be expressed by the formula:

CPA = ((MRA-BCR)/BCR)/2; where CPA is a positive percentage

17.4 Quarterly Payment Calculation.

17.4.1 Quarterly Process. At the end of each Quarter Period for which payment is required to be made pursuant to paragraph 17.3.1 or 17.3.2, Contractor will prepare a report of all Product ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ during the Quarter Period that qualify for such payment as provided in paragraph 17.4.3 (“Eligible Sales”). Contractor will also prepare an invoice equal to the Currency Pricing Adjustment (CPA) times the Eligible Sales during the Quarter Period. Payment will be made according to the payment terms in effect at the time. The calculation will be presented to both parties for approval for compliance with the terms of this section 17 on a quarterly basis.


		Page 25 of 37		Initials: TST ____
				RFM ____

17.4.2 Quarterly Payment. If the CPA is negative for a Quarter Period in which a payment is required by paragraph 17.3.1, the payment shall be made by Company to Contractor. If the CPA is positive for a Quarter Period in which a payment is required by paragraph 17.3.2, the payment shall be made by Contractor to Company. The formula for calculating the quarterly payment is expressed as:

Quarterly Payment = CPA x Eligible Sales

17.4.3 Eligible Sales. All shipments of Product that occur during the quarter under this Product Agreement are qualified as Eligible Sales, except for those that are exempt for one of two reasons:

(1) New Product for which purchases started since the last Annual Administrative Procedures (see paragraph 17.5). There was no new Product as of the effective date of this Agreement.

(2) Product for which new prices have been negotiated (“Negotiated Product”) since the last Annual Administrative Procedures (see paragraph 17.5). There was no Negotiated Product as of the effective date of this Agreement.

When the Annual Administrative Procedures are conducted as outlined in paragraph 17.5, all of the Product that was formerly exempted under this provision will be considered Eligible Sales for future periods, unless it is excluded in the future pursuant to clause (2) of this paragraph.

17.5 Annual Administrative Procedures. The Parties will seek to minimize the administrative requirements necessary to carry out the provisions for the updating of selling price lists (the “Annual Price Adjustment”) and the Base Conversion Rate (collectively, the “Annual Administrative Procedures”). The Annual Procedures may change these from time to time as mutually agreed upon. Unless agreed to by the Parties, these procedures will only be required once a year, in the month of August, after the Most Recent Average and the Currency Price Adjustment for the Fourth Quarter Period have been determined. At such time, the following actions are required to bring future transactions in line with actual cost:

17.5.1 Update the Selling Price Lists. The Currency Pricing Adjustment for the Fourth Quarter Period shall be applied to the current selling price list to determine the Annual Price Adjustment applicable to future Purchase Orders. The adjusted prices will be the new price list. New part numbers and those that have been negotiated since July 31 of the preceding year will not be adjusted. For example, at September 1, 2012, there will not be an adjustment of prices for parts introduced, or for which prices were negotiated, after July 31, 2011). The formula for adjusting the price list is expressed as:

Adjusted Price = Current Price x (1-CPA)


		Page 26 of 37		Initials: TST ____
				RFM ____

17.5.2 Update the Purchase Orders. Purchase orders for the new Fiscal Year (starting September 1) shall reflect the updated selling prices, so that transactions occurring during future periods reflect the determination of the Currency Price Adjustments that took place for the Fourth Quarter Period.

17.5.3 Leftover Purchase Orders. There may be some Purchase Orders accepted by Contractor prior to a new Fiscal Year that are delivered to the Company after commencement of such new Fiscal Year (“Leftover Purchase Orders”). These will be segregated and treated separately by using the prior year’s BCR. They will not be double counted by being included with the current year’s transactions. Contractor will after the end of the first quarter of such new Fiscal Year, namely November 30, calculate and accumulate the amounts of currency conversion loss subject to paragraph 17.1 hereof as well as other terms of this Agreement, if applicable, for such Purchase Orders. In such case a credit or debit note will be issued by Contractor and Company will accept such credit or debit note if the credit or debit amount is correctly calculated and accumulated by paragraph 17.1 and other applicable terms hereof. After the first quarter, any remaining Purchase Orders from the prior year that are not yet delivered will be cancelled and replaced with new Purchase Orders that have been adjusted per the Annual Administrative Procedures; provided, however, that any such cancellation and replacement is for administrative convenience and shall not be a waiver of any rights arising from non-performance of the cancelled and replaced Purchase Order.

17.5.4 Update the Base Conversion Rate. The Base Conversion Rate will remain the same ratio until such time as it is updated by the Annual Administrative Procedures. The new Base Conversion Rate will be the Most Recent Average for the Fourth Quarter Period. This can be expressed by the formula:

New BCR = MRA for Q4

18. Indemnification

18.1 Contractor’s Indemnification: Contractor shall indemnify Company and its Affiliates (including their officers, directors, employees and agents) against, and hold harmless from and against, any and all claims, actions, causes of action, arbitrations, proceedings, losses, damages, liabilities, judgments and expenses (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) (“Indemnified Amounts”) incurred by Company or any of its Affiliates as a result of (i) any material error, inaccuracy, breach or misrepresentation in any of the representations and warranties made by Contractor in this Agreement; (ii) any claim or allegation that Contractor or any of its contractors, representatives and agents, have not fully discharged all obligations under labor laws as set forth in section 15; (iii) any dispute with a subcontractor, employee, independent contractor, manufacturer, agent or supplier; (iv) the operation by Contractor of the Factory during the term of this Agreement; and (v) any Manufacture Defect.
