9.1.2

the role of the Relationship Committee shall be to manage the relationship between the parties in all respects, to oversee the conduct of this Agreement, to resolve differences and difficulties which may arise in the course of the Agreement, to review each party’s performance under this Agreement, to discuss any issues that may have arisen regarding Products or Product ordering, consumption, technical or quality matters, inventory, reasonable means of cost reduction, and the general co-operation between the parties and to seek ways to improve the operation of the Agreement to mutual benefit;

9.1.3

the Relationship Committee shall meet on a quarterly basis, in person or via teleconference, and otherwise as considered appropriate;

9.1.4

each party shall appoint a leader of its relationship team whose responsibility shall be to initiate and maintain contact with the relationship team leader of the other party;

Information Exchange

Each of the parties shall keep the other informed about matters within its knowledge that are likely to have a material effect upon the operation of this Agreement and in particular Sony DADC shall report to the Buyer on a quarterly basis the shipments and delivery lead times for Products delivered during the quarter under report. In the event a material quality issue is identified by either Sony DADC or by the Buyer that is likely to have a material adverse effect on the delivery of products by Sony DADC, the parties shall then consult together as a matter of urgency to agree to the validity of the problem and agree to a solution to the problem, both in respect of maintaining deliveries and in respect of resolving the production problem. If Buyer requests the right to view the process to better understand the problem, Sony DADC shall permit, and cause its Affiliates to permit, Buyer to inspect the facilities and records relevant to the production of Product for the purposes of reaching mutual agreement on corrective action. Buyer shall provide Sony DADC with reasonable advance notice to any such inspection, which may be repeated if required to address the problem. Each inspection shall be conducted in compliance with such reasonable procedures concerning security and confidentiality as Sony DADC specifies and shall be conducted with a view to causing the least practical disruption to the business of Sony DADC.

9.3

Dispute Resolution

The parties each recognise that it is important to establish a close working relationship, to avoid disputes arising and to ensure that any disputes which do arise are speedily resolved without interruption to the operation of this Agreement or the commercial relationship between them. Accordingly, if any dispute arises under or in relation to this Agreement or any Purchase Contract;

9.3.1

the parties shall seek in good faith to resolve the same as soon as practicable so as not to interfere with or damage the working relationship between them in other matters;

9.3.2

the existence of any dispute shall not be treated as a reason for withholding purchase orders, supplies, payment or other performance of this Agreement or any Purchase Contract other than payment of amounts which are disputed in good faith as provided in clause 8.8;

9.3.3

if either party considers that the other is in breach of its obligations under this Agreement or any Purchase Contract and wishes to take action in respect of such breach it shall notify the other party of the breach with relevant information in its possession concerning the breach and a summary of its proposals in respect of it. The parties shall then consult in good faith with regard to actions to be taken to cure the breach and prevent a repetition and if the party in breach puts forward reasonable proposals in that respect (taking into account any previous similar breach) the party complaining of the breach shall allow a reasonable period (being not less than fifteen days nor more than forty-five days) for the same to be implemented;

9.3.4

any dispute or difference shall be referred in the first instance to the Relationship Committee which shall diligently seek to resolve the same. If the Relationship Committee fails to resolve the same, the relationship team members of each party shall prepare a written memorandum summarizing the matter in dispute, their views upon it and their understanding of the other party’s views upon it and the parties shall then exchange their respective memoranda and the Relationship Committee shall then meet again to discuss the matter. If at that meeting they fail to resolve the matter the memoranda prepared by the parties and discussed at the meeting, together with minutes of the meeting, shall be submitted to a senior executive officer (being executive vice president or Chief Operating Officer or more senior) of the respective parties, who shall meet as soon as practicable and seek to resolve the matter;

9.3.5

subject to clause 9.3.6, a party shall not:

(a)

serve any notice under clause 14.2 (whether notice to remedy or notice of termination of this Agreement) by reason of a breach by the other party of its obligations under this Agreement or any Purchase Contract (but shall remain entitled to any compensation available to it in law) and any such notice purportedly given in respect of that breach shall be of no effect; nor

(b)

commence any legal proceedings in respect of the breach or matter in dispute

unless in either case it has allowed any implementation period required by clause 9.3.3 to expire and the remedy has been unsuccessful, has caused its members of the Relationship Committee to be reasonably available to meet those of the other party, has submitted to the other party the memorandum required by clause 9.3.4 and has made a senior executive officer reasonably available to meet pursuant to clause 9.3.4;

9.3.6

subject to any binding agreement resolving a dispute and subject to the foregoing, nothing in this clause 9.3 shall prevent or restrict any party exercising its rights and remedies in law and notwithstanding the foregoing either party may apply to court for injunctive relief in respect of any breach or alleged breach of clauses 11 or 12 or for a court order for payment of any invoice that is overdue for payment

10.

10.1.3

10.2

Adoption of a Change

Any change proposed shall be adopted only when it has been agreed between the parties, either by written notice given by the recipient of the proposal pursuant to clauses 10.1.2 or 10.1.3 or by signature of a memorandum following consultation pursuant to clause 10.1.4; until such agreement is reached the change shall not be implemented unless it is required by applicable Law, in which case after good faith discussion it shall be implemented as so required and the initial price and delivery lead time shall be amended, as required by Sony DADC in order to comply with the applicable Law requiring its implementation, to reflect increased manufacturing cost and time, if any

10.3

Additional Products
