Specifications which may come to the attention of GoerTek. Manufacturing and
quality testing processes for VTB Products shall be mutually agreed upon and
shall not be changed by GoerTek without VTB’s express written approval.

3.2 Price for VTB Products: VTB Products shall be priced on a costs plus profits
basis. As to any VTB Product, GoerTek shall provide a proposed price quotation
and a detailed statement of the costs and profit used to determine such proposed

production and testing, material costs (supported by a detailed Bill of
Materials (“BOM”) providing a list of the raw materials, sub-assemblies,
intermediate assemblies, sub-components, components, parts (collectively,
“Components”) and the quantities and unit prices of each needed to manufacture
the VTB Product), tooling, Vendor services, labor and overhead. The BOM shall
include all Component details, including supplier name, part number, and cost;
provided, that, GoerTek shall provide the location of a supplier upon request by
VTB. All costs of manufacturing other than GoerTek’s profit shall hereinafter be
referred to as “Manufacturing Costs.” Manufacturing Costs shall not include any
NRE activities in accordance with Section 3.6 hereof. As to each VTB Product,
GoerTek and VTB shall agree in writing on a final Price Analysis setting forth
an agreed Manufacturing Cost and profit margin per unit, along with an agreed
final price per unit for any initial order (the “Initial Price”). GoerTek may
not change any Components without VTB’s prior written approval.

 

3.3 Continuous Cost Reductions: GoerTek and VTB agree to work together in good
faith for continuous reductions in Manufacturing Costs, including Component,

reductions in writing to VTB.

 

3.4 Price Adjustments: The price for each VTB Product shall be the Initial Price
as adjusted from time to time: (a) as volume milestones are reached, in
accordance with Schedule B, VTB – GoerTek Cost Reduction Commitments and (b) as
may be required by Section 7.2 hereof. Notwithstanding anything expressed or
implied to the contrary in Section 2.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement:
(a) GoerTek agrees, during the term of this Agreement, to manufacture all of
VTB’s requirements for VTB Products as ordered by VTB at the price determined in
accordance with this Section 3.4; and (b) GoerTek shall accept all POs validly
issued by VTB in accordance with this Agreement for VTB Products provided that
such PO specifies a price no less than the price determined in accordance with
this Section 3.4.

 

3.5 Vendors: GoerTek shall inform VTB of any Vendors it intends to use in the
manufacture of any VTB Products or providing any Services to VTB. GoerTek shall
not employ any Vendor, or otherwise subcontract any aspect of manufacturing VTB
Products or providing Services to VTB, without VTB’s prior express written
consent. GoerTek shall procure that VTB have the right, at any time during
business hours and from time to time, to inspect the facilities of any Vendor If
VTB does not approve a Vendor proposed by GoerTek, GoerTek shall propose
alternative Vendors to replace the Vendor of which VTB disapproved. VTB may at
any time and from time to time withdraw any consent to a particular Vendor.

 

3.6 Engineering Labor: GoerTek shall not charge VTB the full engineering labor
fees associated with the non-recurring engineering (NRE) activities during the
product development phase of new products, however, if VTB wishes to attain the
sole and exclusive ownership to IPR determined according to section 5.2 below,
VTB shall pay to GTK the full engineering labor cost reflected in the most
recently updated product cost quote shown in the “labor” worksheet, prior to
mass production, or as otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing. Subject
to Section 2.1 hereof, GoerTek may charge VTB for fees associated with other
aspects of product development, including, but not limited to, product
certification, tooling, specific testing and production equipment and samples in
accordance with a valid PO for such services issued by VTB and accepted by
GoerTek specifying the fees for such services, which shall be mutually agreed
upon by the parties.

 

4. Payment and Delivery

 

4.1 Delivery: GoerTek shall comply with VTB’s billing and delivery instructions
shown on the PO or otherwise communicated to GoerTek. GoerTek shall deliver the
Products ordered by VTB to any common carrier or shipper designated by VTB FCA,
Incoterms 2010, Qingdao, or on such other terms as may be specified in the PO,
on the date specified in the PO. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Seller
shall at all times maintain inventory, materials and Components on hand
sufficient to meet reasonably projected requirements for the production and
timely delivery of Products to VTB. When Products are received improperly marked
or routed and VTB is put to extra expense to deliver such Products to the proper
location, VTB may offset the extra expense incurred against sums otherwise owed
to GoerTek.

4.2 Change Orders: Subject to Section 4.3 and Section 4.4 hereof, VTB may change
the shipping instructions, extend the delivery date as to all or part of any
order, or cancel all or part of an order set forth in any accepted PO by
providing written notice to GoerTek prior to the delivery shipment date
specified on the PO (a “Change Order”).

 

4.3 Extending Delivery Date. VTB may provide a Change Order extending the
delivery date otherwise specified in a PO, without penalty, as to a number of
units of Products up to the following percentages of the total units of Products
ordered in the PO, such extension not to exceed 90 calendar days:

 

Number of Calendar

Days of Advanced

Notice Before Delivery

Date in the PO

  

Percentage of Units Ordered under a

Given PO the Delivery Date of Which

May Be Extended by up to 90 Calendar

Days

0 - 21 days

   0%

22 - 50 days

   Up to 50%

51 - 77 days

   Up to 75%

78 days or more

   Up to 100%

For the purposes of calculating the number of units the delivery date of which
may be extended, no distinction shall be made between Products of different
types ordered in a single PO and VTB may allocate the permitted percentage of
units to be rescheduled among different Product types in its discretion.

 

4.4 Cancellation: VTB may provide a Change Order cancelling an order for
Products up to the following percentages of the total units of Products ordered
in the relevant PO:

 

Number of Calendar

Days of Advanced

Notice Before Delivery

Date in the PO

  

Percentage of Scheduled Shipment that

May Be Cancelled

0 - 30 days

   0%

31 to 60 days

   Up to 25%

61 - 90 days

   Up to 50%

More than 90 days

   Up to 100%

As to cancellations permitted by this Section 4.4, GoerTek may nevertheless
charge a cancellation fee not to exceed its actual costs from the cancellation,
which cancellation fee shall be its sole remedy. After receipt of a Change Order
specifying a cancellation, GoerTek shall use its best efforts to mitigate its
actual costs, including without limitation by stopping production, cancelling
materials with its suppliers, and using materials and Components for other
products as much as possible to reduce VTB’s liability. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, in no event shall VTB’s liability for cancellation of an
order of VTB Products exceed the cost of Components for the cancelled units as
shown in the relevant BOM, as such cost may be reduced from time to time in
accordance with Section 3 hereof. As to any cancelled order for which GoerTek
has charged a cancellation fee, all Components, partially-assembled Products, or
Products in respect of which a cancellation fee has been charged shall be the
sole property of VTB and GoerTek shall ship such materials to any address
specified by VTB at VTB’s expense.

 

4.5 Customs Clearance: Upon GoerTek’s written request, VTB shall provide
necessary documents according to China’s regulations to facilitate GoerTek to
handle customs clearance as required. GoerTek will provide an appropriate
certification stating the country of origin for Products sufficient to satisfy
the requirements of the customs authorities of the destination country or
countries and any applicable customs or import/export regulations of such
countries, including without limitation

  those of the United States. GoerTek will assure that Products and containers
of Products are marked with the country of origin, as required by applicable
regulations of any jurisdiction or as otherwise reasonably requested by VTB. If
Products are imported into the United States, or another destination as stated
in the PO, GoerTek will, upon direction by VTB, allow VTB or its designated
customer to be the importer of record. If VTB is not the importer of record,
GoerTek will, upon VTB’s request, provide VTB with documents required by the
customs authorities of the country of receipt to prove proper importation. If
the customs clearance is delayed due to VTB’s insufficient information or VTB’s
fault, GoerTek is not liable for VTB’s loss.

 

4.6 Late Delivery: GoerTek shall deliver the Products on the date indicated in
the relevant PO. If GoerTek fails to make timely deliveries of the Products
meeting the product quality standards set forth in this Agreement and as
provided for in any submitted and accepted PO, VTB shall not be required to
accept such delivery. If GoerTek is unable to (i) deliver the Products within
fourteen (14) calendar days after the date indicated in the relevant PO or (ii)
make available to the common carrier within seven (7) calendar days after the
date indicated in the relevant PO, GoerTek shall deliver such Products to a
common carrier approved by VTB for overnight air shipment at GoerTek’s expense.
In the event GoerTek makes a delayed delivery of the Products, VTB may agree
(while reserving all other rights) to accept such delivery and adjust the
purchase price by an amount equal to the original purchase price multiplied by
0.05 percent per day multiplied by the number of calendar days delivery of
conforming Products was delayed, provided that such delay was (a) not caused by
an event of force majeure and (b) not solely due to delays in common carrier
booking caused by VTB.

 

4.7 Deliveries of Less than Full Amount: In the event that a delivery contains
less than 99% of the Products than ordered by VTB in the related submitted and
accepted PO, VTB may reject such delivery in its entirety. Provided that
shipment for the lesser amount shows no signs of tempering or broken custom seal
at the time of receiving. Alternatively, VTB shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to accept the lesser quantity and reduce the purchase price pro rata
to the amount and type of the Products actually delivered. Acceptance of such
lesser amount shall not preclude VTB from pursuing any remedies available to it
resulting from Seller’s failure to deliver the full amount of Products ordered.

 

4.8 Payment Currency: Unless otherwise agreed to by both parties in writing, all
transactions under this Agreement shall be in United States dollars.

 

4.9 Credit Line: GoerTek shall provide VTB a revolving line of credit
(hereinafter the “Credit Line”) of Ten Million United States Dollars
(US$10,000,000) for use in purchasing Products and Services from GoerTek.
GoerTek shall apply the Credit Line automatically to any amounts payable for the
purchase of Products or Services on the date of delivery. Funds borrowed against
the Credit Line shall be due sixty (60) calendar days after the date applied to
the purchase price of Products or Services. Simple interest on late payments
shall accrue at the rate of 3.5% per annum. GoerTek shall provide VTB with
detailed monthly written statements showing amounts charged against the Credit
Line, the dates such charges were made, the date payment is due, and any
interest on such amounts. The written statements shall additionally show the
total amount remaining on the Credit Line. Amounts due exceeding the available
credit under the Credit Line shall be paid by means mutually agreeable to the
GoerTek and VTB. Notwithstanding any prior payment or application to the Credit
Line, all Products and Services hereunder shall be subject to final inspection
and approval by VTB, within thirty (30) calendar days after delivery. VTB is not
required to accept any Non-Conforming Products, notwithstanding any usage of
trade or common practices to the contrary, and VTB shall have no obligation to
make any payment in respect of Non-Conforming Products. For the avoidance of
doubt, the acceptance of Products for delivery by a common carrier or shipper
does not constitute VTB’s acceptance of such Products under this Section 4.9 and
acceptance of products by VTB shall not preclude any other remedy by VTB in
respect of defective or Non-Conforming Products or otherwise for breach of this
Agreement.

 

5. Intellectual Property and Proprietary Materials

 

5.1 Intellectual Property: All IPRs and other legal, moral and equitable rights
of any kind provided by VTB or any of its Affiliates to GoerTek (collectively,

thereof and shall furnish VTB with complete information relating thereto,
including but not limited to a complete written disclosure of such copyrighted
or patentable material.

GoerTek hereby irrevocably and unconditionally assigns, and agrees to cause all

Know-How or other IPRs to GoerTek in connection with this Agreement, including
any physical embodiments of such Know-How and other IPRs, such Know-How and
other IPRs shall constitute VTB IPR. GoerTek shall use such Know-How and other

any VTB Representatives shall retain any copies of such GoerTek Proprietary
Materials (including any electronic or backup copies). Neither VTB nor any VTB
Representative shall use any GoerTek Proprietary Material for any purpose other
than to manufacture Products for VTB.

 

6. Product Quality and Warranty

 

6.1 Warranty: GoerTek represents and warrants on an ongoing basis that: (a.) all
Products shall be free from defects in material, manufacturing, design and
workmanship, including, without limitation, cosmetic defects, and shall conform
to specifications, all for a period of 12 months from date of delivery,
provided, however, that GoerTek shall not be responsible for defects caused
exclusively by engineering design errors in Specifications provided by VTB; (b.)
VTB will acquire on delivery good, valid and marketable title to the Products
and that the Products shall be free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and
other restrictions; (c.) Product is new and does not contain used or refurbished
parts; (d.) Products designed by GoerTek shall not infringe the intellectual
property rights of any third party Person, (e.) Products will be manufactured
according to the highest quality workmanship using the Consigned Materials (if
provided) and otherwise the best materials according to any applicable BOM or
product specifications; (f.) Products are merchantable and are fit for the
specific purposes for which the Products are intended to be used, except to the
extent that any failure of merchantability or fitness for the purposes intended
is caused by VTB’s Specifications; and (g.) VTB Products will meet the
Specifications, and VTB Products and all other Products will meet the
specifications, tolerances and quality metrics specified for such Products, and
will be consistent with any samples provided by GoerTek to VTB.

 

6.2 Non-Conforming Products: As to any Products (each, a “Non-Conforming
Product”) which (i) violate any representation or warranty of GoerTek (other
than with respect to the representations and warranties contained in
Section 6.1(a)), VTB shall be entitled to return to GTK for rework, (or rework
through a third party agreed by both VTB and GTK), or a credit equal to the full
purchase price if the invoice for such products have been paid and such
Non-Conforming Products have been tested as non-conforming prior to resale by
VTB or (ii) violate any representation or warranty contained in Section 6.1(a),
VTB shall be entitled to a refund equal to 50% of the full purchase price of
such Non-Conforming Products. VTB shall use the services of a third party
returns and refurbishment vendor (currently Sohnen Enterprises) to test each
returned Product and to provide reports documenting the quantity and nature of
each defect and will retain the defective product for use in its refurbishment
operations. GoerTek shall provide a credit memo or a cash refund if no open
invoice, within thirty (30) calendar days after receiving VTB’s written request,
by bank transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by VTB.
VTB shall be entitled to offset the amount of any future payment to GoerTek by
the amount of any unapplied credit memo. VTB shall not be required to return
Non-Conforming Products to GoerTek.

 

6.3 Consigned Materials: “Consigned Materials” means the materials necessary for
manufacturing Products that are provided by VTB. VTB agrees to deliver Consigned
Materials to the destination designated by GoerTek within the lead-time agreed
upon by GoerTek and VTB. VTB will use its best efforts to assure Consigned
Materials arrive at GoerTek’s factory no later than seven (7) calendar days from
the projected arrival date. GoerTek shall not be liable for any delayed
shipments of Products to the extent such delay is caused by the late arrival of
Consigned Materials. If GoerTek changes the destination, then GoerTek shall be
responsible for all costs associated with transferring the Consigned Materials
to the new destination. GoerTek shall retain full responsibility for the
security and care of Consigned Materials and shall protect VTB against any loss
or damage of Consigned Materials. GoerTek shall reimburse VTB for any Consigned
Materials not used in the production of Products if, within thirty (30) calendar
days after written request, such Consigned Material is not returned to VTB in
materially the same condition in which it was provided to GoerTek (ignoring any
reductions in quantity or amount resulting from the use of such Consigned
Materials). The price and payment terms of the reimbursed parts charged to
GoerTek shall be the same as the price paid by VTB. VTB shall pay approved
shipping charges on any returned Consigned Material.

6.4 Production Waste and Loss: If requested by GoerTek, VTB shall provide up to
1.5% of the total quantity of its Consigned Materials for waste and production
loss by GoerTek. As part of its request, GoerTek shall provide detailed
information regarding the cause of said production loss and the actions taken to
minimize additional loss. GoerTek will immediately notify VTB of poor quality
materials if any occurrence shall take place and shall assist VTB in reconciling
the settlement of claims against the third-party Person provider of said
defective Consigned Materials. With the exception of defective materials, if the
monthly waste and production loss of Consigned Materials exceeds 0.5% and
GoerTek requests more spare parts, GoerTek shall pay for said additional parts
and VTB shall supply said parts at its earliest possible opportunity. The price
and payment terms of the additional spare parts charged to GoerTek shall be the
same as VTB’s buying price and payment terms.

 

6.5 Inventory Management: Upon request, GoerTek shall submit to VTB an inventory
reconciliation of all Consigned Materials. Within thirty (30) calendar days
following the termination of this Agreement or VTB’s written request, as the
case may be, GoerTek will return all Consigned Materials to VTB, or to any other
location specified by VTB, per the shipping instructions provided by VTB.
Approved shipping costs for said return shall be paid by VTB.

 

6.6 Management of equipment, molds, jigs and tools, etc: GoerTek shall be
responsible for the management of equipment, molds, toolings, dies, jigs and
tools, etc. and measuring instruments and testing apparatus, etc., necessary for
production of the Products (hereinafter, the “Production Materials”), and shall
manage the Production Materials such that they keep the necessary accuracy at
all times, in order to maintain the quality of the Products. Any Production
Materials used to manufacture VTB Products and paid for by VTB (“VTB Production
Materials”) shall be the sole property of VTB. GoerTek shall grant VTB
reasonable access to VTB Production Materials at all times, and shall deliver
any VTB Production Material in undamaged condition (save ordinary wear and tear)
to VTB at an address designated by VTB within 15 calendar days of VTB’s written
request. In the event of any dispute with VTB, GoerTek shall have no lien over
or right to retain any VTB Production Material beyond the time period set forth
in this paragraph, and failure to turn over any VTB Production Material within
the time period specified by this paragraph shall constitute a material breach.
GoerTek may not use or retain any VTB Production Material to satisfy in whole or
in part any claim GoerTek may have against VTB. No VTB Production Materials or
Consigned Materials shall be used in the manufacture of any non-VTB products,
nor used for any other purpose other than manufacturing VTB Products to fulfill
GoerTek’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

 

6.7 Product Regulations Conformity: Unless otherwise agreed to by VTB in writing
and without limitation of any other product quality requirements, Products shall
adhere to the following regulations and shall be labeled accordingly: (a.)
Product shall comply with the specifications of the CE mark. (b.) Emissions
(EMC): CE mark for European Union (EU) market. EN55022 Class B.
US/Canadian/Mexico market, FCC Class B verified. (c.) Product Safety: UL
flammability rating of 94V-0 and traceable to the UL components directory. (d.)
RoHS Directive (“the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in
electrical and electronic equipment”). (e.) Product shall comply with any other
specifications and requirements designated from time to time by VTB of any
government, administrative, industry or other regulation or standard, of the
United States, European Union, Japan, or other institution, Person, market or
jurisdiction anywhere in the world, and shall be labeled accordingly.

 

6.8

Hazard Condition: In the event either GoerTek or VTB becomes aware of any
information which reasonably supports a conclusion that a defect may exist in
any Product and the defect could cause death or bodily injury to any person or
property damage (hereinafter a “Hazard”), the Party becoming aware of this
information shall immediately notify the other of the Hazard. Whenever possible,
notification to the other Party shall precede notice to any governmental agency,
unless required by law. GoerTek and VTB shall promptly exchange all relevant
data and then, if practical, as promptly as possible, meet in person or
telephonically to review and discuss the information, tests, and conclusions
relating to the alleged Hazard. At this meeting the parties shall discuss the
basis for any action, including a recall, and the origin or causation of the
alleged Hazard, provided, however, that the VTB shall have the right to make the
ultimate decision as to any recall or other method of addressing a Hazard. The
Seller agrees and undertakes that it will indemnify and hold VTB and its
Affiliates harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, causes of
action, actions or suits, whether at law or in equity, judgments, decrees,
damages, or any liability whatsoever asserted or entered against VTB arising out
of or relating to any Hazard, except to the extent such Hazard is caused
exclusively by a defect in VTB’s design as set forth in the Specifications (a
“VTB Hazard”). GoerTek shall be solely responsible for all costs of all Hazards
other than VTB Hazards, including the costs of effecting a recall and the
related reasonable out-of-pocket

  costs to VTB and its customers. Each Party shall, on request, provide to the
other reasonable assistance in (a.) determining how best to deal with the
Hazard; and (b.) preparing for and making any presentation before any
governmental agency which may have jurisdiction over Hazards involving Products.

 

6.9 Defective Product Condition: In the event either GoerTek or VTB becomes
aware of any information which reasonably supports a conclusion that a defect
may exist in any Product and the defect could cause said Product to be returned
by VTB’s Customers (hereinafter a “Defect”), the Party becoming aware of this
information shall immediately notify the other of the Defect. Whenever possible,
notification to the other Party shall precede notice to any governmental agency,
unless required by law. GoerTek and VTB shall promptly exchange all relevant
data and then, if practical, as promptly as possible, meet to review and discuss
the information, tests, and conclusions relating to the alleged Defect. At this
meeting the parties shall discuss the basis for any action, including a recall,
and the origin or causation of the alleged Defect, provided, however, that the
VTB shall have the right to make the ultimate decision as to any recall or other
method of addressing a Hazard. GoerTek agrees and undertakes that it will
indemnify and hold VTB and its Affiliates harmless from and against any and all
claims, demands, causes of action, actions or suits, whether at law or in
equity, judgments, decrees, damages, or any liability whatsoever asserted or
entered against VTB arising out of or relating to any Defect, except to the
extent such Hazard is caused exclusively by a defect in VTB’s design as set
forth in the Specifications (a “VTB Defect”). GoerTek shall be solely
responsible for all costs of all Defects other than VTB Defects, including the
costs of effecting a recall and the related reasonable out-of-pocket costs to
VTB and its customers. Each Party shall, on request, provide to the other
reasonable assistance in (a.) determining how best to deal with the Defect; and
(b.) preparing for and making any presentation before any governmental agency
which may have jurisdiction over Defects involving Products.

 

7. Additional Covenants

 

7.1 Exclusivity: GoerTek shall manufacture VTB Products exclusively for VTB, and
shall not provide any VTB Product or derivative thereof to any other Person.
Without limitation of the foregoing, GoerTek and the GoerTek Parent Company
shall not, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates not to, sell VTB
Products or derivatives thereof under a different label in the PRC or any other
market.

 

7.2 Most Favored Pricing: Notwithstanding anything expressed or implied to the
contrary in this Agreement, GoerTek shall provide terms and conditions for the
purchase of the Components and Services by VTB that are no less favorable to VTB
than those offered from time to time by GoerTek or any of its Affiliates to any
other customer for similar Components or Services on a worldwide basis
irrespective of volume commitments.

 

7.3 Working Conditions: GoerTek shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and
Vendors to, comply with all applicable PRC laws, regulations, and guidelines
relating to employment, working conditions, occupational health and safety, and
environmental compliance, and, without limitation of any other remedy available
to VTB hereunder, GoerTek shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless VTB, its
OEM customers, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents,
customers and distributors from any damage to any of their reputations,
business, or public image as a result of GoerTek’s violation of this
Section 7.3.

 

7.4 Audit Rights: VTB shall have the right, at any time and from time to time
during the term of this Agreement, to audit GoerTek’s compliance with the terms
of this Agreement (an “Audit”). VTB may appoint one or more independent auditors
(an “Independent Auditor”) to assist with an Audit. The scope of an Audit may
include, without limitation, the accuracy of any Price Analysis or BOM,
compliance with GoerTek’s obligations of confidentiality, compliance with the
most favored pricing obligation set forth in Section 7.2 hereof, and compliance
with the provisions relating to VTB IPR.

GoerTek shall, and shall cause each Vendor and GoerTek Representative to,
co-operate fully with any Audit and provide any materials reasonably requested
in connection therwith. Without limitation of the generality of this obligation,
VTB and any Independent Auditor may inspect, during normal business hours, the
premises and facilities of GoerTek and GoerTek Representatives. GoerTek shall
further make its, and each of its Affiliates, Vendors, employees, contractors,
directors, officers and other representatives available for interview by VTB and
any Independent Auditor at reasonable times and places, and shall cause all such
Persons to cooperate fully with any Audit, and shall promptly provide any books,
records, or other documents requested by VTB or an Independent Auditor in such
form as may be requested by VTB or such Independent Auditor.

GoerTek shall retain and preserve all contracts, emails, purchase orders,
projections, shipping receipts, production notes, and other documents concerning
or relating to any provision of this Agreement for a period of at least two
years from the date such document was created or received.

VTB shall pay for the full costs and fees associated with any Independent
Auditor, provided, however, that GoerTek shall pay, on time and in full, the
full costs and fees of an Independent Auditor if the Independent Auditor’s
report reflects any breach by GoerTek of this Agreement. To the extent that VTB
has paid or pays any such costs or fees, GoerTek shall reimburse VTB for such
costs and fees within ten calendar days of being notified of the relevant amount
by VTB.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.5, to the extent
Goertek is unable to disclose or make available information as a result of a
bona fide contractual confidentiality obligation with third parties or under
applicable law, Goertek may redact or anonymize such information to the extent
necessary to comply with such obligations or laws.

 

8. Confidential Information, Liability and Indemnification

 

8.1 Confidential Information: “Confidential information” means any and all
confidential and proprietary information, including both technical and
non-technical information, exchanged among the Parties at any time, before or
after the date of this Agreement, whether verbally or in writing or by other
means, and including: (a) copyright, trade secret and proprietary information;
(b) techniques, algorithms, firmware and software programs related to the
current, future and proposed business, products and service of a Party;
(c) information concerning research, engineering, industrial design and styling;
(d) financial information, procurement requirements, purchasing information,
customer lists, business forecasts, sales and merchandising information,
marketing plans and marketing information; (e) the terms and conditions of this
Agreement; or (f) any other information that has been designated as
“Confidential.” Each Party shall at all times, both during the term of this
Agreement and after its expiration, keep in confidence, and not disclose to any
third party, any Confidential Information of the other Parties and shall not use
such Confidential Information without the protected Party’s express written
consent except in the performance of its duties or as contemplated under this
Agreement. GoerTek and the GoerTek Parent Company agree that they shall not
disclose VTB’s Confidential Information to their own employees, advisors, agents
or independent contractors except to the extent necessary for the purposes
permitted under this Agreement and in such case, only if the disclosing Party
(a.) first obtains from such parties a signed confidentiality agreement with
terms at least as restrictive as those specified in this Agreement and which
expressly names VTB as an intended third-party beneficiary with standing to sue
and (b.) first provides a copy of said confidentiality agreement to VTB.

 

8.2 Protection of Confidential Information: Each Party will take reasonable
measures to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information, but
not less than the measures it uses for its own Confidential Information of
similar type. Each Party will immediately give notice to the other Parties of
any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information. Each Party
agrees to assist the other Parties in remedying such unauthorized use or
disclosure of the Confidential Information. The foregoing obligation, and the
obligations described in Section 8.1, will not apply to the extent that the
receiving Party can demonstrate that the disclosed information is:
(i) information which it learned from a third party Person having the right to
make the disclosure, provided the restricted Party complies with any
restrictions imposed by the third party Person; (ii) information which is
rightfully in the restricted Party’s possession prior to the time of disclosure
by the protected Party and not acquired by the restricted Party under a
confidentiality obligation; or (iii) information which enters the public domain
without breach of confidentiality by the restricted Party or any other Person
under a duty of confidentiality. In the event that any Party is requested or
becomes legally compelled (including, pursuant to any applicable tax,
securities, stock exchange rules or regulations or other laws and regulations of
any jurisdiction) to disclose any Confidential Information, such Party shall
provide the protected Party with prompt written notice of that fact and shall
consult with the protected Party regarding such disclosure. At the request of
the protected Party, the restricted Party shall, to the extent available, seek a
protective order, confidential treatment or other appropriate remedy. In any
event, the restricted Party shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential
Information that is legally required to be disclosed and shall use its best
efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be
accorded such information.

8.3 Limitation of Liability: VTB’s liability to GoerTek under this Agreement
shall be limited to the total purchase price for Products duly ordered according
to valid POs issued by VTB and accepted by GoerTek and the cost of any Remaining
Materials.

 

8.4 GoerTek Indemnification: Without limitation of any other remedy available to
VTB, GoerTek agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless VTB, its OEM
customers, and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents,
customers and distributors from and against any and all claims, actions,
demands, legal proceedings, liabilities, damages, judgments, settlements,
reasonable costs and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’
reasonable fees and costs, arising out of or in connection with any alleged or
actual: (a.) breach of any of GoerTek’s covenants, representations, or
warranties contained in this Agreement; (b.) violation by GoerTek of any
governmental laws, rules, ordinances or regulations; (c.) claim arising out of
or relating to Products that contain used or refurbished parts (except to the
extent that VTB expressly orders such Products in an accepted PO and such
Products are clearly and conspicuously labeled by GoerTek as containing used or
refurbished parts); (d.) products liability claim or other claim relating to the
quality, manufacture, safety, or function of any Products, except to the extent
such claim arises solely from defects in VTB’s design or actions by VTB; (e.)
claim by or on behalf of Vendors or agents that is related to the purchase of
the Products by VTB under this Agreement or (f) infringement of any intellectual
property rights held by a third party with respect to IPRs provided by GoerTek
or any of its Affiliates to VTB.

 

8.5 VTB Indemnification: Without limitation of any other remedy available to
GoerTek, VTB agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless GoerTek and its
Representative and their respective directors, officers, employee, attorneys,
and agents, and its successors, licensee and assigns (the “GoerTek Indemnified
Parties”) from any and all claims which may be obtained against, imposed upon or
suffered by the GoerTek Indemnified Parties by reason of or arising out of any
infringement of any intellectual property right held by a third party with
respect to IPRs provided by VTB or any of its Affiliates to GoerTek.

Agreement shall forthwith become null and void, and there shall be no further
liability or obligation on the Parties; provided, however, that (i) this
Section 9.3 and Sections 1, 5, 6, 7.1, 7.3, 8, and 10 shall survive termination
of this Agreement, and (ii) each Party shall remain liable to the other Parties
for any breach of this Agreement existing at the time of such termination or in

10. General

 

10.1 Governing Law and Dispute Resolution: This Agreement shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without
regard to its conflicts of law principles. The United Nations Convention on
Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) shall not apply.

The Parties shall use good faith efforts to resolve any dispute, controversy or
claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement or the
breach, termination or invalidity thereof (“Dispute”) through friendly
consultations among the Parties. If no settlement is reached within twenty
(20) calendar days from the date one Party notifies another Party in writing of
its intention to submit the Dispute to arbitration in accordance with this
clause, then any such Dispute will be finally and exclusively settled by
arbitration by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Center (HKIAC) in
accordance with the HKIAC Administered Arbitration Rules as then in effect and
as may be amended by this Article Dispute Resolution.

The place of arbitration will be in Hong Kong at the HKIAC. The arbitration
proceedings will be conducted in English. The arbitration tribunal (“Tribunal”)
will consist of three (3) members. GoerTek and the GoerTek Parent Company will
together select one (1) arbitrator, and VTB will select one (1) arbitrator. Each
Party-appointed arbitrator shall be appointed within twenty (20) days of
commencement of the arbitration. The presiding arbitrator will be selected by
agreement between the arbitrators selected by the Parties or, failing agreement
within ten (10) calendar days of the appointment of the arbitrators selected by
the Parties, by the Secretary General of the HKIAC.

Without limiting the power of the Tribunal to issue any particular type of
relief, the Tribunal is specifically empowered to award preliminary and
permanent equitable or injunctive relief, specific performance and/or damages.
The Tribunal shall award the costs of arbitration (including, without
limitation, witness expenses and attorneys’ fees) against the losing party,
unless the Tribunal specifically determines that such an award would be unjust.

In any arbitration proceeding, each Party will cooperate with the other Parties
in making full disclosure of and providing complete access to all information
and documents requested by such other Party which are reasonably likely to be
relevant to the contested issues in such arbitration proceeding, subject to any
confidentiality obligations to third parties binding on such Party, and subject
to the attorney-client and related privileges against disclosure.

The arbitration award will be final and binding on the Parties, and the Parties
agree to be bound thereby and to act accordingly. Any arbitration award may be
enforced by any court having jurisdiction over the Party against which the award
has been rendered, or wherever assets of that Party are located, and will be
enforceable in accordance with the New York Convention on the Recognition and
Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (1958) or under the Arrangement
Concerning Mutual Enforcement of Arbitral Awards Between the Mainland China and
the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, as the case may be. The costs
(including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) of enforcing the arbitration
award shall be borne by the party resisting such enforcement.

10.2 Notices: Any notice or other communication under this Agreement shall be in
writing and shall be deemed to have been fully given or made when personally
delivered, delivered by a reputable express courier service, or when sent by
electronic mail to the addresses set forth below if sent between 8:00 a.m. and

10.6 Severability: Should any provision herein be held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be
modified to reflect the intentions of the Parties. All other terms and
conditions shall remain in full force and effect. All headings and section
captions in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not be considered in
construing this Agreement.

 

10.7 Independent Parties: The relationship created between GoerTek and VTB under
this Agreement shall be that of seller and purchaser. Neither GoerTek nor any
GoerTek Representative shall under any circumstances be deemed agents or

contracts or commitments in the name or on behalf of VTB or to bind VTB in any
respect whatsoever, except as VTB may specifically authorize in writing.

 

10.8 Force Majeure: No Party will be liable for any delay in performing under
this Agreement to the extent such delay is caused by weather, fire, explosion,
floods, riots or civil disturbances, in each case to the extent such condition
is beyond the Party’s reasonable control. Such delay, however, shall only be
excused for the period during which such condition continues.

 

10.9 Specific Performance: Each Party hereto agrees that its obligations
hereunder are necessary and reasonable in order to protect the other Parties to
this Agreement, and each Party expressly agrees and understands that monetary
damages would inadequately compensate an injured Party for the breach of this
Agreement, that this Agreement shall be specifically enforceable, and that, in
addition to any other remedies that may be available at law, in equity or
otherwise, any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement shall be the proper
subject of a temporary or permanent injunction or restraining order, without the
necessity of proving actual damages or posting bond. Further, each Party hereto
waives any claim or defense that there is an adequate remedy at law for such
breach or threatened breach.

 

10.10 Parent Company Guarantee: The GoerTek Parent Company hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to VTB each obligation of GoerTek
under this Agreement, and any accepted PO under this Agreement, in accordance
with the terms and conditions contained herein and therein. The liability of the
GoerTek Parent Company as aforesaid shall not be released or diminished by any
arrangements or alterations of terms of this Agreement or any forbearance,
compromise, neglect or delay in seeking performance of the obligations hereby
imposed or any granting of time for such performance or the dissolution or
insolvency or liquidation or any change in the constitution or the status of the
GoerTek Parent Company or GoerTek. The GoerTek Parent Company hereby waives any
rights which it may have to require VTB to proceed first against or claim
payment from GoerTek. This guarantee is to be a continuing security to VTB. The
GoerTek Parent Company’s obligations under this Section 10.10 are primary
obligations and not those of a mere surety. The GoerTek Parent Company agrees
that if any obligation in this Agreement may not be enforceable against or
recoverable from GoerTek by reason of any legal limitation, disability or
incapacity of such entity or any other fact or circumstance, such obligation
shall nevertheless be enforceable against or recoverable from the GoerTek Parent
Company as though the same had been incurred by it and it was the sole or
principal obligor in respect thereof and shall be performed or paid by it on
demand.
