Page 6 of 6
Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale for Goods and Services (rev.0 August 2016)
Control Components Inc. (IMI CCI) is referred to in these terms and conditions as "Seller" and the customer or person or entity purchasing goods, services, parts and
materials from Seller is referred to as "Buyer". “Goods” and/or “Services” mean the products, parts and materials manufactured by Seller or the services rendered, both as
set out in Seller’s technical documentation and quotation.
1. BASIS OF CONTRACT
These terms and conditions shall apply to any contract concluded (the “Contract”) for the sale or supply of Goods and/or Services from Seller to Buyer whether the Contract
for such sale is concluded by acceptance by Seller of Buyer’s purchase order or by acceptance by Buyer of Seller’s quotation, unless the parties expressly agree in writing
in the Contract that these terms and conditions shall not apply to a specific Contract. In the event of a conflict between the pre-printed terms provided in any purchase order
or other document and these terms and conditions, these terms and conditions shall prevail. All inconsistent or additional terms and conditions in any Buyer
acknowledgement, invoice or other forms or which Buyer may seek to impose or incorporate by trade practice are expressly objected to and rejected by Seller and shall not
bind Seller unless expressly agreed to in writing including as stated on Seller’s quotation or sales order acknowledgement.
2.2 Once accepted, the price will become firm, however, Seller shall be entitled to increase such price to take account of cost escalation in the event that delivery of the
Goods or provision of the Services is delayed beyond standard delivery schedules for reasons outside of the control of Seller and/or to take account of foreign currency
fluctuations where the same differ from currency exchange assumptions in Seller’s proposal.
2.3 Unless otherwise specified in Seller’s quotation, payment terms are net thirty (30) days after the date of invoice. Any amounts not paid when due shall bear interest at
the rate of 1.5% per month or at the highest rate permitted by law (whichever is less) from the due date until paid.
2.4 If Buyer defaults in any payment when due, Seller, without incurring any liability to Buyer or any other party, may, at its option and in addition to other remedies available,
declare all work complete with payment immediately due and payable together with interest as provided in the preceding paragraph on all outstanding amounts due therein;
stop all further work and deliveries until all past due payments and interest have been made and/or require that any further deliveries be paid for prior to shipment. If requested
by Seller, Buyer shall obtain a bond or other security to provide guarantees of payment to Seller.
2.5 As and if requested by Seller, Buyer shall at its expense establish and keep in force payment security in the form of an irrevocable, unconditional, sight letter of credit or
bank guarantee allowing for pro-rata payments as Goods are shipped and Services are performed, plus payment of cancellation and termination charges, and all other
amounts due from Buyer under the Contract ("Payment Security"). The Payment Security shall be (a) in a form, and issued or confirmed by a bank acceptable to Seller, (b)
payable at the counters of such acceptable bank or negotiating bank, (c) opened at least sixty (60) days prior to both the earliest scheduled shipment of Goods and
commencement of Services, and (d) remain in effect until the latest of ninety (90) days after the last scheduled Goods shipment, completion of all Services and Seller's
receipt of the final payment required under the Contract. Buyer shall, at its expense, increase the amount(s), extend the validity period(s) and make other appropriate
modifications to any Payment Security within ten (10) days of Seller's notification that such adjustment is necessary in connection with Buyer's obligations under the Contract.
2.6 Seller is not required to commence or continue its performance unless and until any required Payment Security is received, operative and in effect and all applicable
milestone payments have been received. For each day of delay in receiving all applicable milestone payments or acceptable Payment Security, Seller shall be entitled to a
matching extension of the schedule. If at any time Seller reasonably determines that Buyer's financial condition or payment history does not justify continuation of Seller's
performance, Seller shall be entitled to require full or partial payment in advance or otherwise restructure payments, request additional forms of Payment Security, suspend
its performance or terminate the Contract.
4.2 Any claims regarding shortages in delivery must be made within thirty (30) days from Delivery and must be accompanied by the packing list(s) covering the shipment.
4.3 Title shall only pass upon receipt of full payment of the purchase price for the Goods by Seller.
4.4 Performance of the Contract is contingent upon Buyer supplying to Seller, when needed, all required technical information, including drawing approval and all required
commercial documents, delivery instructions and other instructions required for the supply of the Goods. Unless otherwise agreed, Seller shall have the right to make partial
deliveries.
5. WARRANTY
5.1 Subject to the limitation of liability and the conditions set out below and unless otherwise specified in Seller’s quotation, Seller warrants title to the Goods, that the Goods,
upon delivery, shall conform with the specifications listed in the Contract (or to Seller’s currently published specifications if there are no specifications in the Contract) and
shall be free from defects in material and workmanship. The warranty period shall expire on the earlier of twelve (12) months from the date of commissioning or eighteen
(18) months from the date of Delivery to Buyer.
5.2 Subject to the limitation of liability and the conditions set out below and unless otherwise specified in Seller’s quotation, Seller warrants that in performing the Services,
it will exercise all reasonable skill, care and due diligence and shall perform the Services in accordance with professional practice. Seller warrants that all Services performed
shall be free from faulty workmanship for a period of ninety (90) days from completion of the Services.
5.3 The above warranties are given by Seller subject to the following conditions:
(a) Seller shall be under no liability in respect of any defects arising from any drawing, design or specification supplied by Buyer or if the Goods differ from their specification
as a result of changes made to ensure that they comply with applicable statutory or regulatory standards;
Page 1 of 4
(b) Seller shall be under no liability in respect of any defects arising from fair wear and tear, wilful damage, negligence, abnormal working conditions, failure to follow
Seller’s instructions, storage, installation, start up, maintenance and repair guidelines, modification, disassembly, alteration or repair of the Goods without Seller’s
written approval or where the Goods have been subject to corrosion or have been misused, mishandled or improperly installed;
(c) Seller shall be under no liability under the above warranties (or any other warranty, condition or guarantee) if the total price of the Goods has not been paid by the due
date for payment;
(d) the above warranties do not extend to the supply of soft goods required to inspect or maintain any part of the Goods supplied;
(e) the above warranties does not extend to parts, materials or equipment not manufactured by Seller in respect of which Buyer shall only be entitled to the benefit of any
such warranty or guarantee as is given by the manufacturer to Seller;
(f) Seller shall be under no liability if Buyer makes any further use of the Goods after giving notice in accordance with clause 5.5.
5.4 Any claim by Buyer which is based on any defect in the quality of the Services shall be notified to Seller as soon as possible within the warranty period. Failure by Buyer
to give such written notice within the applicable time period specified above shall be deemed an absolute and unconditional waiver of Buyer's claim for such defects. Seller’s
liability is limited solely to correct performance of that portion of the Services found by Seller to be defective or at Seller’s option, refunding to Buyer purchase price allocable
to the nonconforming part of the Services.
5.5 Any claim by Buyer which is based on any defect in the quality or condition of the Goods or their failure to respond to specification shall be notified to Seller within 30
days from the date of Delivery or (where the defect or failure was not apparent on a reasonable inspection) within a reasonable time after discovery of the defect or failure
during the warranty period. Failure by Buyer to give such written notice within the applicable time period specified above shall be deemed an absolute and unconditional
waiver of Buyer's claim for such defects. Buyer shall only have the right to reject Goods that do not conform to Seller’s warranties.
5.6 Seller must receive written notice of any defect within the warranty period and be given a reasonable opportunity to examine the Goods and all information available so
that Seller can detect the root cause of any defect. Seller’s liability is limited solely to repair or replacement of any Good at Seller’s point of manufacture or, at Seller’s option,
refunding to Buyer the purchase price allocable to the nonconforming portion of the Contract. However, for Goods not installed by Seller, Buyer shall be responsible for
removal, return and reinstallation costs.
5.7 Before returning any Goods to Seller, Buyer must contact Seller for a return authorisation confirmation and provide a failure report detailing the claimed warranty defect
or failure. Upon return confirmation, Buyer will return the Goods to Seller, freight prepaid. After Seller verifies that the Goods were nonconforming or defective under this
clause 5, Seller will credit Buyer for the cost of returning the Goods. Unless approved in advance by Seller, Seller shall not be liable for any transportation charges for the
return of the Goods nor any other costs or charges incurred by Buyer. Goods repaired and parts replaced during the warranty period shall be in warranty for the remainder
of the original warranty period.
5.8 Subject to this clause 5, SELLER MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS
FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OR ANY OTHER MATTER WITH RESPECT TO THE GOODS AND/OR SERVICES, whether the Goods are used
alone or in combination with any other material. BUYER IS NOT AUTHORISED TO MAKE ANY WARRANTY OR ASSUME ANY OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY ON SELLER’S
BEHALF IN CONNECTION WITH THE SALE, INSTALLATION OR USE OF THE GOODS. Seller’s warranties shall not be enlarged by, nor shall any obligation or liability of
Seller arise due to, Seller providing technical advice concerning processing, further manufacture, other use or resale of the Goods provided hereunder.

ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER (WHETHER SUCH CAUSE BE BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) STRICT LIABILITY, WARRANTY OR
OTHERWISE) RELATED HERETO SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED THE CONTRACT PRICE OF THE GOODS OR SERVICES IN RESPECT OF WHICH SUCH CAUSE
ARISES.
6.5 All Seller liability shall end upon expiration of the applicable warranty period, provided that Buyer may continue to enforce a claim for which it has given notice prior to

later than one year after expiration of such warranty period.
6.6 If Buyer is supplying Goods or Services to a third party, or using Goods or Services at a facility owned by a third party, Buyer shall either (i) indemnify and defend Seller

its group undertakings, and their respective officers and employees) (each an Indemnified Person) from and against all losses, liabilities, obligations, claims (including claims
from third parties), demands, damages, penalties, expenses and fees suffered or incurred by Seller or any other Indemnified Person, arising out of any actual or alleged
nuclear damage caused by the Goods or which otherwise occurs in consequence of the performance of or failure to perform the Contract, whether by Seller, or any sub-
contractors of Buyer or Seller, and any actual or alleged nuclear damage arising in consequence of any activities from time to time carried out in relation to the Contract,

7. CHANGES
7.1 Each party may at any time propose changes in the schedule or scope of Goods or Services. Seller is not obligated to proceed with any change until both parties agree
upon such change in writing. The written change documentation will describe the changes in scope and schedule, and the resulting changes in price and other provisions,
as agreed.
7.2 The scope, Contract Price, schedule, and other provisions will be equitably adjusted to reflect additional costs or obligations incurred by Seller resulting from a change,
after Seller's proposal date, in Buyer's site-specific requirements or procedures, or in industry specifications, codes, standards, applicable laws or regulations. However, no
adjustment will be made on account of a general change in Seller's manufacturing or repair facilities resulting from a change in laws or regulations applicable to such facilities.
Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, pricing for additional work arising from such changes shall be at Seller's time and material rates.
7.3 Seller reserves the right to change or modify the design and construction of any of its products, in due course of its manufacturing procedure, without incurring any
obligation to furnish or install such changes or modifications on products previously or subsequently sold. Seller also reserves the right to amend the specifications of the
Goods if required by any applicable statutory or regulatory requirements.
8.2 Seller may suspend or terminate the Contract (or any affected portion thereof) immediately for cause if Buyer (i) becomes insolvent, makes an assignment for the benefit
of its creditors, has a receiver or trustee appointed for it or any of its assets, or files or has filed against it a proceeding under any bankruptcy, insolvency dissolution or
liquidation laws, or (ii) materially breaches the Contract, including, but not limited to, a breach by the Buyer of clauses 10 or 12, failure or delay in Buyer providing Payment
Security, making any payment when due, or fulfilling any payment conditions.
8.3 If the Contract (or any portion thereof) is terminated, Buyer shall pay Seller for all Goods completed, lease fees incurred and Services performed before the effective
date of termination, plus expenses reasonably incurred by Seller in connection with the termination. The amount due for Services shall be determined in accordance with
the milestone schedule (for completed milestones) and rates set forth in the Contract (for work toward milestones not yet achieved and where there is no milestone schedule),
as applicable or, where there are no milestones and/or rates in the Contract, at Seller's then-current standard time and material rates. In addition, Buyer shall pay Seller a
cancellation charge equal to 80% of the Contract price applicable to uncompleted made-to-order Goods and 15% of the Contract price applicable to all other uncompleted
Goods.
8.4 Either Buyer or Seller may terminate the Contract (or the portion affected) upon twenty (20) days advance notice if there is a Force Majeure Event (as described in clause
9) lasting longer than one hundred and twenty (120) days. In such case, Buyer shall pay to Seller amounts payable under clause 8.3, excluding the cancellation charge for
uncompleted Goods unless acts or omissions of Buyer or its contractors or suppliers cause the delay.
8.5 Buyer shall pay all reasonable expenses incurred by Seller in connection with a suspension (including a suspension as a result of a Force Majeure Event as described
under clause 9), including, but not limited to, expenses for repossession, fee collection, demobilisation/remobilisation, and costs of storage during suspension. The schedule
for Seller's obligations shall be extended for a period of time reasonably necessary to overcome the effects of any suspension.
9. FORCE MAJEURE
9.1 A Force Majeure Event means any circumstance not within a party’s reasonable control including, without limitation:
provided it has complied with this clause 9, if a party is prevented, hindered or delayed in or from performing any of its obligations under the Contract by a Force Majeure
Event (“Affected Party”), the Affected Party shall not be in breach of the Contract or otherwise liable for any such failure or delay in the performance of such obligations. If
acts or omissions of the Buyer or its contractors or suppliers cause the delay, Seller shall also be entitled to an equitable price adjustment. The corresponding obligations
of the other party will be suspended, and its time for performance of such obligations extended, to the same extent as those of the Affected Party. The Affected Party shall
(a) as soon as reasonably practicable after the start of the Force Majeure Event and to the extent it is legally able, notify the other party of the Force Majeure Event, the date
on which it started, its likely or potential duration, and the effect of the Force Majeure Event on its ability to perform any of its obligations under the Contract and Seller shall
also advise of the effect of the Force Majeure Event on the price of the Goods to be supplied and (b) use reasonable endeavors to mitigate the effect of the Force Majeure
Event on the performance of its obligations.
10. ETHICS
10.1 Buyer represents and warrants to Seller and Seller represents and warrants to Buyer, that both Parties and all persons or entities providing goods and/or services in
connection with this Contract in any manner will comply with all applicable laws, statutes and regulations and any internal policies concerning anti-bribery and corruption,
conflict of interest, money laundering, labour standards, and other laws that may be implicated in connection with this transaction. It is the intent of the Parties to prohibit
participation in or facilitation of any form of public-sector or private-sector corruption, kickback, extortion, or any other illegal, unethical or improper means of obtaining or
retaining a business advantage or inducing anyone to misuse his or her discretion.
10.2 If, during the term of the Contract, either Party knows or becomes aware of any facts or circumstances contrary to the representations and the warranties above, said
Party will immediately notify the other Party and provide sufficient information for the affected Party to take appropriate protective or corrective actions, which may include
voiding or rescinding the Contract. The notifying Party further agrees to cooperate fully in any investigation undertaken by the affected Party.
10.3 If requested, both Parties agree to show evidence of an ethics or code of conduct program or otherwise acknowledge in writing that their respective employees are
aware of their obligations under this clause.
11.2 Seller's documentation, prints, and drawings (“Documents”) (including without limitation, the underlying technology) furnished by Seller to Buyer in connection with the
Contract are the property of Seller and Seller retains all rights, including without limitation, exclusive rights of use, licensing and sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer
may use the Documents as is necessary in the installation, operation, maintenance, and repair of the Goods sold under this Contract but may not disclose them to any third
party without the prior written consent of Seller.
Page 3 of 4
11.3 Seller warrants that the Goods sold pursuant to the Contract, or their use as provided below, except as are made specifically for Buyer according to Buyer's
specifications, do not infringe any valid patent in existence in the country where the Goods are installed as of the date of delivery. This warranty is given upon condition that
Buyer (i) promptly notifies Seller in writing of any claim or suit involving Buyer in which such infringement is alleged, (ii) makes no admission of liability and does not take
any position adverse to the Seller, (iii) gives Seller sole authority to control defence and settlement of the claim, and (iv) provides Seller with full disclosure and reasonable
assistance as required to defend the claim. Seller's warranty as to use only applies to infringements arising solely out of the inherent operation (i) of such goods, or (ii) of
any combination of goods sold hereunder in a manner designed by Seller.
11.4 Should any Goods, or any portion thereof, become the subject of a claim notified under clause 11.3, Seller may at its option (i) procure for Buyer the right to continue
using the Goods, or applicable portion thereof, (ii) modify or replace it in whole or in part to make it non-infringing, or (iii) failing (i) or (ii), take back infringing Goods and
refund the price received by Seller attributable to the infringing Goods.
11.5 This clause 11 states Seller's exclusive liability for intellectual property infringement by Goods.
11.6 Buyer agrees, at its expense, to indemnify Seller against any claim for infringement of any intellectual property rights arising out of Goods made or Services provided
by Seller in compliance with Buyer’s designs, specifications or instructions.
11.7 Buyer undertakes to Seller to keep confidential all information (written or oral) disclosed by Seller to Buyer or otherwise acquired during the course of the performance
of the Contract except information that is subject to an obligation to disclose under law, or that is required to be disclosed by any competent regulatory authority, by notice
or otherwise, or already in its possession other than as a result of a breach of this clause or in the public domain other than as a result of a breach of this clause.
12.2 Without limiting the foregoing, any commodity, technology, or software provided by Seller is prohibited for export, re-export, or transfer to Cuba, Islamic Republic of
Iran, Democratic People’s Republic of North Korea, Republic of Sudan, Republic of South Sudan or Syrian Arab Republic, as well as to persons or entities listed on restricted
parties lists published by the governments of the U.S., EU, UK, Switzerland, Japan or Korea as applicable to this transaction. Buyer shall immediately notify Seller if Buyer
is, or becomes, listed in any restricted parties list or if Buyer’s export privileges are otherwise denied, suspended or revoked in whole or in part by any government entity or
agency. Additionally, any commodity, technology, or software provided by Seller is prohibited for export, re-export, or transfer to any person or entity which will use it for end-
uses proscribed by any relevant export control regulations, including chemical and biological weapon, missile, nuclear, maritime nuclear propulsion, and terrorism related
activities.
12.3 Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller from any and all fines, claims, damages, losses, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred
by Seller as a result of any breach of this clause 12 by Buyer.
12.4 Performance of this Contract is contingent upon Seller obtaining any necessary government approvals, including, but not limited to, any required export licenses or
required authorisations. Buyer acknowledges that failure to receive a required approval by the relevant government(s) to proceed with an export or transfer of technology
excuses Seller from performing the Contract and delivering under the order.
13 MISCELLANEOUS
13.1 Seller is a member of the group of companies whose holding company is IMI plc and accordingly, Seller may perform any of its obligations to exercise any of its right
hereunder by itself or through any other member of its group, provided that any act or omission of any such other member shall be deemed to be the act of omission of
Seller.
13.2 The validity, interpretation and performance of this Contract and any dispute connected herewith shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the

courts of the State of California, U.S.A., shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with the Contract or its subject matter or
formation.
13.4 This Contract constitutes the full understanding of the parties, a complete allocation of risks between them and a complete and exclusive statement of the terms and
conditions of their agreement and supersedes any price or contemporaneous oral or written communications between the parties concerning the goods supplied hereunder.
13.5 No conditions, usage of trade, course of dealing or performance, understanding or agreement purporting to modify, vary, explain or supplement the terms or conditions

acceptance of purchase order or shipping instruction forms containing terms or conditions at variance with or in addition to those set forth herein.
13.6 No waiver by either Seller or Buyer with respect to any breach or default or of any right or remedy and no course of dealing, shall be deemed to constitute a continuing
waiver of any other breach or default or of any other right or remedy, unless such waiver is expressed in a writing signed by the party to be bound.
13.7 Buyer shall not (by operation or law or otherwise) assign its rights or delegate its performance hereunder without the prior written consent of Seller, and any attempted
assignment or delegation without such consent shall be void.
13.8 If any provision or part-provision of the Contract or these terms and conditions is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall be deemed modified to the
minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal and enforceable. If such modification is not possible, the relevant provision or part-provision shall be deemed deleted. Any
modification to or deletion of a provision or part-provision under this clause shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the rest of the Contract or these terms and
conditions.
