2. Purchase Orders.

2.1. Purchaser may purchase Products in accordance with the terms of this Agreement by submitting purchase order(s) (“Purchase Order(s)” or “PO(s)”). [XXX] Vendor shall provide Purchaser with written notice of acceptance of Purchaser’s Purchase Orders via email transmission no later than five (5) business days after Vendor’s receipt of such Purchase Order; otherwise the Purchase Order shall be deemed rejected by Vendor. No Purchase Order shall be deemed to be accepted by Vendor unless and until accepted in writing by countersignature, provided that the Prepaid Purchase Order is deemed accepted by both Parties.

Upon Vendor’s countersigning of the Purchase Order, the Purchase Order shall, together with these terms and conditions, form a binding sales contract between Vendor and Purchaser to which this Agreement shall apply. No change, modification or revision to a Purchase Order will be valid unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Purchaser and Vendor. If any term of this Agreement conflicts with any term of an accepted Purchase Order, or any confirmation, invoice or other documentation issued by Vendor with respect to a Purchase Order, the accepted Purchase Order shall supersede the Agreement, confirmation, invoice or other documentation. When a Purchase Order is issued by Purchaser and accepted by Vendor, such Purchase Order shall be a separate and independent contract from any other Purchase Order. Termination, cancellation, or modification of one Purchase Order shall not terminate, cancel or modify any other Purchase Order.

2.2. Changes to Purchase Orders following acceptance, including changing delivery dates, quantity, and module specification, may only be made by written agreement between Vendor and Purchaser.

If the delivery extension exceeds sixty (60) days, then Purchaser shall pay to Vendor storage cost per month or partial month thereafter for all Products stored at Vendor’s warehouse per Vendor’s invoice. [XXX] The Parties shall enter into such a change order without any further adjustment in the terms of this Agreement or applicable Purchase Order (other than to increase or decrease, as applicable, the Purchase Order Value (as defined in Section 3) to include the change in quantity of Products at the Purchase Price(as defined in Section 3)), provided such change request is made by Purchaser and approved by Vendor in writing at least one hundred twenty (120) days in advance of the first Delivery Date for such Products.

14.4 An indemnitee may, at its own expense, assist in such defense or provide its own separate defense, provided that indemnitor shall control its defense and all negotiations relative to its settlement of any such Claim. An indemnitee shall promptly notify indemnitor in writing of any Claim which such indemnitee believes falls within the scope of this Section, but failure to give such prompt notice shall not relieve the obligations of indemnitor described in this Section 14 except to the extent the indemnitor is prejudiced by the failure to give prompt notice.

32.  Product, Manufacturing and Quality Specifications and Requirements.

Application of Section 32

This Section 32 shall apply to any Purchase Orders that include the words, “Section 32 shall apply to this Purchase Order,” that are then confirmed and approved in writing by Vendor.

Document Purpose

The purpose of this Section 32 is to describe the Product, Manufacturing and Quality Requirements that will apply to all Products produced by Vendor and delivered to the Purchaser, including the respective obligations for both Parties.

It is designed to ensure that both the Purchaser and Vendor understand and agree on the technical diligence and quality criteria that will be applied to the Products and the processes that will be put in place to verify compliance to the agreed criteria.

The goal is to ensure that Products meet the long-term field safety, reliability and performance expectations of the Purchaser, which is in the mutual interest of both the Purchaser and the Vendor.

General Requirements

The Purchaser will use an independent third party, as technical advisor (“Factory Inspector”), as its representative to manage the technical diligence and quality assurance requirements contained in this Section 32.

Vendor’s General Responsibilities

The Vendor will provide a single focal point for management, coordination and implementation of requirements and criteria with the Purchaser and any service providers hired to work on behalf of the Purchaser.

Specifications

Purchaser will only accept new build Vendor’s Products that have been independently quality-assured by the Factory Inspector as detailed in this Section 32.

Purchaser will not accept Vendor’s Products from stock or inventory. Purchaser will also not accept any Products that have been repaired or re-worked (either prior to or during production). Products are considered as having been re-worked if any construction changes are made to the finished Product (e.g. removal and replacement of cells, EVA or back-skin). Re-work of Product assemblies prior to lamination is not considered re-work for the purposes of this Section 32.

Production in the approved facilities list certified by CSA (institution to issue a satisfactory certificates) is allowed.

Purchaser will only accept Vendor Products manufactured in facilities and assembled in workshops which have passed a Pre-Production Audit (“Approved Workshops”) as long as:

Products must be assembled on pallets with Products of only one power class, per pallet. Mixed pallets are not permitted. Each pallet must be clearly labeled with the power class.

Quality Assurance: The Parties hereby agree to negotiate in good faith to incorporate Exhibit F into this Agreement after the Effective Date. In the event that the Parties cannot reach an agreement on the terms of Exhibit F, the Parties shall retain a mutually acceptable third party to serve as a technical advisor for the purpose of finalizing Exhibit F. The technical advisor shall have the authority to make the final determination regarding the terms of Exhibit F, which shall be binding upon the Parties..

33.  Financing Cooperation and Cure Rights.

(a) Purchaser shall have the right upon written notice to Vendor to collaterally assign a Purchase Order without the consent of Vendor to its Financing Parties; provided, however, that, on enforcement of such collateral assignment by such Financing Parties (or their Affiliates), such Financing Parties may (but are not obligated to) assume, or cause any purchaser at any foreclosure sale or any assignee or transferee under any instrument of assignment or transfer in lieu of foreclosure to assume, all (but not less than all) of the interests, rights and obligations of Purchaser thereunder. Vendor shall execute and provide such documents as Purchaser or its Financing Parties may reasonably request in connection with Purchaser’s efforts to obtain and maintain such financing, including, without limitation, collateral assignment agreements, consents, estoppels and legal opinions.

(b) Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, Vendor’s right to exercise the option to terminate a Purchase Order pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof is subject to Vendor’s first delivering to the Financing Parties, simultaneously with delivery thereof to Purchaser, notice of Purchaser’s failure to cure the default and Vendor’s intent to terminate as a result thereof. Each Financing Party shall have the option, but not the obligation, to cure any Purchaser Event of Default within (i) an additional seven (7) business days thereafter if it is a payment default or (ii) an additional ten (10) business days thereafter if it is anything other than a payment default and/or, such additional time consented to by Vendor and reasonably necessary to cure such failure, and further provided that such Financing Party promptly commences and diligently thereafter pursues such cure. If a Financing Party desires to cause their designee to assume a Purchase Order, they shall provide notice to that effect within the foregoing applicable period after receipt of Vendor’s notice to the Financing Parties of Purchaser’s failure to cure the default and Vendor’s intent to terminate such Purchase Order. In either such case, Vendor’s right to terminate a Purchase Order shall be of no further force and effect upon the cure by the Financing Parties of such default or receipt by Vendor of such notice from the Financing Parties of its intent to have such Purchase Order assumed, provided such assumption and cure takes place within the period set forth above and provided, further, that the Financing Party or the assuming party, as applicable, provides Vendor with assurances reasonably satisfactory to Vendor of the ability of the Financing Party, or such assuming party, as applicable, to pay and perform the obligations of Purchaser hereunder and, upon such assumption, Purchaser shall be released from all obligations or liability under the applicable Purchase Order. The provisions of this Section shall be subject to any consent or similar agreement entered into by Vendor and Purchaser with a Financing Party.

(c) “Financing Party” shall mean any and all persons other than a Party or their respective Affiliates that (i) provide senior or subordinated debt, lease or equity financing (including, tax equity financing) or refinancing in support of a project company; or (ii) provide letters of credit, guarantees, insurance or other credit support to Purchaser or an Affiliate of Purchaser, in each case, in connection with a solar project incorporating the Products. “Affiliate” means with respect to any person, any other person controlling, controlled by or under common control with such first person. For purposes of this definition and this Agreement, the term “control” (and correlative terms) means the right and power, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, to direct or cause the direction of substantially all of the management and policies of a person through ownership of voting securities or by contract, including, but not limited to, the right to fifty percent (50%) or more of the capital or profits of a partnership or, alternatively, ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting stock of a corporation.
