including, but not limited to, the purchase price of replacement
products ordered or, if a replacement product is unavailable, the
reasonable cost of compensation, labor, overhead, travel time and
materials required to supply such replacements. Seller shall promptly

priority over all other orders in any allocation of such raw materials
or parts, or production scheduling; provided, however, that delay as a
result of interruption of supplies or scarcity of materials or parts
shall not excuse Seller's performance unless due to one of the causes
noted above.]
Section 10. DESIGN; PRODUCT CHANGES
(a) Products manufactured by Seller for Buyer under this Agreement shall

notice of such proposed Product Change. Within sixty (60) days
thereafter,
-5-

provide a brief description of the reasons for such Proposal and the
expected benefits, including cost savings, to result from implementation
of such Proposal. Upon receipt, the Seller will make all reasonable
efforts to evaluate the Proposal and to provide the Buyer with an
estimate of the approximate amount of the addition to or reduction in
the aggregate cost of production of such Product as a result of such
Proposal. Buyer and Seller will then mutually agree to accept or reject

law, rule or regulation of any of the states or other jurisdictions in
which the Products are sold requires that the name of the manufacturer of
Products be indicated or manifested thereon, such identification as is

placed on the Products.

(g) Seller shall provide Buyer with:
(i) part drawings sufficient for inspection purposes for all
parts which Buyer desires to order. The drawings shall include

(ii) for Buyer's cataloging of new models, Seller shall prepare
and deliver to Buyer Product Service exploded camera ready art,
positives and/or negatives, replacement parts list, including
exploded view of the Product and parts prices and two sets of

workmanship for ninety (90) days from the date of shipment.
(ii) If any parts offered by Seller are defective in material
or workmanship, or do not conform to Seller's warranty, Buyer
shall have the option of:
(A) Returning all such rejected parts to Seller at
Seller's expense for full refund in U.S. dollars of
the purchase price and all additional charges

incurred by Buyer including all costs of replacement
material and rework labor charges.
(iii) Seller shall be notified promptly of any and all rejects
and may examine and evaluate such defects within fifteen (15)
working days after receipt of notice. All rejects shall be held

obligations under this Agreement.
(i) In the event of a fire, flood or other event which prevents Seller
from furnishing Buyer required proprietary parts, Seller shall permit
Buyer to have manufactured all proprietary parts or assemblies which
Buyer requires for as long as the Seller is not in a position to supply

Section 24. PRODUCT CERTIFICATION AND COMPLIANCE WITH LAW
(a) Seller shall be responsible for and shall take all necessary steps
to ensure that the Products comply with all applicable laws, rules and
regulations, including all laws, rules and regulations applicable in the
country to which Seller states that the Products are currently certified
for sale.
(b) In the event Buyer makes a request to Seller and provides Seller
with the applicable federal, state or local government specifications
and requirements, or in the event any governmental agency makes such
request or otherwise so requires, Seller shall determine and advise
Buyer in writing whether the Products covered in this Agreement conform
to the government specifications and standards applicable thereto;
provided that Seller is obligated to provide such information only with
respect to Products of which the expected annual purchase hereunder
exceeds the level sufficient to cause investigation by applicable
governmental authorities.
(c) Seller shall reimburse Buyer for any reasonable loss, expense, or
damages (including but not limited to attorney fees, overhead, and court
costs) which Buyer incurs as a result of its reliance upon information
provided by Seller with respect to such specifications, or upon any
determination or written advice respecting such specifications given by
Seller to Buyer, which prove to be untrue, incomplete or otherwise
misleading.
(d) The review or approval by Buyer of any designs, engineering
drawings, quality control procedures, testing of any Seller processes or
equipment by Buyer, or any other aspect of the design and manufacture of
Products hereunder shall in no way relieve Seller of the responsibility
for producing Products which are of good workmanship and performance and
of merchantable quality and fit for the purpose intended.
Section 25. HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS; PRODUCT RECALL
(a) In the event that Seller or Buyer learns of any issue relating to a
potential safety hazard or unsafe condition in the Products covered by
this Agreement or is advised of such by competent authorities of any
Government having jurisdiction over such Products, it will immediately
advise the other party by the most expeditious means of communication.
The parties shall cooperate in correcting any such condition that is
found to exist, but Seller shall remain responsible therefor and agrees
to reimburse, indemnify and hold Buyer harmless against all costs,
expenses, suits, claims, damages, including but not limited to attorney
fees, overhead, court costs and any other remedies which Buyer may have
under the Uniform Commercial Code in connection with this Section 24.
(b) In the event that any Products are found by Seller, Buyer or by any
governmental agency or court having jurisdiction to contain a defect,
serious quality or performance deficiency, or not be in compliance with
any standard or requirement so as to require or make advisable that such
Products be reworked or recalled, Seller will promptly communicate all
relevant facts to Buyer and undertake all corrective actions including
those required to meet all obligations imposed by laws, regulations, or
orders, and shall
-17-
file all necessary papers, corrective action programs and other related
documents; provided that Buyer shall cooperate with and assist Seller in
any such filing and corrective action, and provided that nothing
contained in this section shall preclude Buyer from taking such action
as may be required of it under any such law or regulation. Seller shall
perform all necessary repairs or modifications at its sole expense. The
parties recognize that it is possible that other Seller manufactured
products might contain the same defect or noncompliance condition as do
the Products for Buyer. Buyer and Seller agree that any recall involving
any Product shall be treated separately and distinctly from similar
results of Seller brand products; provided that such separate and
distinct treatment is lawful and that Seller shall in no event fail to
provide at least the same protection to Buyer on such Products as Seller
provides to its other customers in connection with such similar recalls.
Each party shall consult the other prior to making any statements to the
public or a governmental agency concerning issues relating to potential
safety hazards affecting the Products, except where such consultation
would prevent timely notification required to be given under any such
law or regulation.
Section 26. PRODUCT LIABILITY.
Seller agrees to protect, defend, hold harmless and indemnify and
reimburse Buyer and its distributors, dealers, affiliates and customers,
during the term of this Agreement and any time thereafter from and
against actual and direct liability, claim, cost or expense (including
but not limited to attorneys, fees, overhead, and court costs) arising
out of actual or alleged death or of injury, to any person, or damage to
tangible property, by whomever suffered, arising out of or alleged to
arise out of (1) any failure of Products to comply with applicable
specifications, warranties and certificates under this Agreement; (2)
the negligence of Seller in design, manufacture or otherwise with
respect to Products or parts therefor; or (3) claims based on product
liability, with respect to allegedly defective Products or part thereof.
Seller shall have the sole and exclusive right to defend against any and
all such suits, actions, proceedings, investigations, demands and
claims.
Section 27. ASBESTOS, AND PCB.
Seller certifies, based on Seller's qualitative determination, that the
Products or parts thereof do not contain asbestos or PCB's at this time
and Seller will not introduce into the Products or replacement
components any parts that contain asbestos or PCB's.
Section 28. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.
Seller agrees to comply with the applicable provisions of any federal,
state or local law or ordinance and all orders, rules and regulations
issued thereunder. Any provisions, representations or agreements
required thereby to be included in the Agreement resulting from
execution of this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference. Seller
will, if requested, furnish any certifications of compliance required by
law or regulation.
Section 29. WORK ON OTHER PARTY'S PREMISES.
-18-
Buyer's representative shall, upon giving Seller advance notice, have
reasonable access to Seller's premises during working hours to observe
work in progress and to perform an audit on the implementation of any
quality control requirements. The parties shall take all necessary
precautions to prevent injury to person or property during the progress
of work and shall indemnify each other and such other's successors,
assigns, agents, employees and customers against all loss which may
result in any way from any act or omission of either party, agents,
employees, or subcontractors. Performance of audits or testing of
equipment or procedures shall not relieve Seller of any responsibility
under quality requirements or warranty provisions.
Section 30. FURTHER ASSURANCES.
Buyer hereby agrees to cooperate with Seller in connection with all
matters relating to this Agreement.
Section 31. FURTHER ASSURANCES.
Buyer hereby agrees to cooperate with Seller in connection with all
matters relating to this Agreement.

Seller hereunder may be assigned, transferred or conveyed by operation
of law or otherwise without the prior written consent of the other
party, except to an affiliate of the transferring party or, in the case
of Seller, to any party to which all or substantially all of the assets
and businesses of Seller are also, directly or indirectly, transferred
or conveyed by operation of law at the same time.
Section 33. TERMINATION.
In addition to the other provisions for termination contained in this
Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated by either party at any time
for any material breach of this Agreement provided that the party
desiring termination gives thirty (30) days prior written notice of the
same to the other party, specifying the claimed breaches. Such
termination shall be effective thirty (30) days from the date of receipt
of said notice if the specified breaches are not cured before the
effective date or reasonable steps have not been taken before the
effective date to effectuate a cure within a reasonable period of time.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may terminate this Agreement
by written notice to the other party effective immediately in the event:
(a) either party knowingly submits to the other false or fraudulent
reports, statements or claims for any credit or payment;
(b) either party shall become insolvent or bankrupt or admit in writing
its inability to pay debts as they become due;
(c) either party makes an assignment for the benefit of credit whether
voluntary or involuntary;

reason of the termination, expiration or non-renewal of this Agreement
be liable to the other for any damages or injunctive relief of any
kind, including but not limited to, compensation, reimbursement or
damages on account of loss of prospective profits on anticipated sales,
or on account of expenditures, investments, losses or commitment in
connection with the business or goodwill of Buyer or Seller; provided
however, that if as a result of termination Seller shall have unused
unique Buyer parts manufactured or procured for firm orders received
from Buyer prior to such termination, Buyer shall purchase such parts
from Seller at the then-current prices for such parts within thirty (30)
days after such termination
Section 34. GOVERNING LAW.
This Agreement and the relations between the parties under it shall be
construed in accordance with the substantive law of the State of New
York. In enforcing this contract, the parties may initiate proceedings
in any appropriate jurisdiction as they deem fit. The service of any

proceeding may be effected by forwarding a copy of the writ of summons
