	3.8	 	VUZIX will be responsible for and will use reasonable commercial efforts to protect and
enforce VUZIX’s intellectual property rights in and arising from the Products throughout the
Territory, including the filing of applications and the maintenance of registrations for
patent, copyright, trade-mark, industrial design and other applicable intellectual property
rights throughout the Territory. If RESELLER becomes aware of any third party infringement or
other misuse of such intellectual property rights, RESELLER will promptly inform VUZIX of such
infringement and RESELLER will, at VUZIX’s cost, provide such reasonable assistance to VUZIX
as VUZIX requests for the purpose of enforcing its intellectual property rights against such
infringement. If VUZIX elects not to take any action to prevent the infringement or other
misuse of its intellectual property rights in the Territory within 60 days of being advised of
an infringement (i) after having being advised by its legal counsel that such action is
justified and has a reasonable likelihood of success, and (ii) where the expected damages
recovery or damage mitigation would be greater than the costs of action or the costs of doing
nothing, RESELLER may, at RESELLER’s option, take such action at VUZIX’s expense, in which
case VUZIX will, at VUZIX’s expense, provide reasonable cooperation in such action. VUZIX will
promptly provide RESELLER with the basis of the determination as set out in (i) and (ii) in
the previous sentence, and in the event RESELLER disagrees with the determination and the
parties are not able to arrive at an agreed course of action within 10 days, either party may
at its option refer the matter for arbitration as set out in this Agreement. In the event the
RESELLER is unsuccessful in having arbitration agreeing such actions have reasonable merits to
proceed, then it will be required to reimburse VUZIX for all its costs related to this matter,
inclusive of all costs since the matter was originally raised by the RESELLER. In the event
where RESELLER elects to proceed with an action that it solely undertakes at its own cost, and
VUZIX has elected not to proceed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement after an
arbitrators decision on the lack of positive merits of such an action, then VUZIX shall not be
liable for any costs but will provide reasonable cooperation in such actions, at RESELLER’s
expense. Any money or proceeds recovered by way of damages, judgments, settlements or
otherwise with respect to such action that are not measured by the royalties that would be
payable to Vuzix for the use of such intellectual property, will be kept by the Party who bore
the costs of such action or, in any case where the Parties have shared the costs, such money
will be shared in proportion to the costs borne by each Party.
	 
	3.9	 	RESELLER will at all times be responsible for protecting and enforcing RESELLER’s trade-mark
rights in and relating to the Products throughout the Territory.
	 
	3.10	 	VUZIX reserves the right to protect and enforce such rights in the Territory if it so wishes
and will prepare and submit or file all such rights on its own behalf only. RESELLER may use

exclusively govern the sale of the Products and any terms or provisions of RESELLER’s
purchase orders or of VUZIX’s invoices which are different from or in addition to the terms
of this Agreement shall be null, void and of no force and effect.

greater than the warranty terms set out in Section 8, will be RESELLER’s sole responsibility,
and RESELLER will indemnify VUZIX from liability for any such more favorable Commitment by
RESELLER.
	 
	5.	 	RIGHT TO MANUFACTURE
	 
	5.1	 	If RESELLER sells at least the number of units (the “Minimum for Manufacturing Amount”) of
the Products set out in Schedule B in the Territory during any twelve (12) consecutive month
period, RESELLER will have the right, but not the obligation, to manufacture in the Territory
RESELLER’s full future requirement of the Products, as well as any additional Products
required under Section 5.8. For these purposes, a sale shall mean that Products are ordered by
RESELLER in accordance with normal lead times, payment and credit terms for such orders and
shall include such Products that have been ordered but can not be delivered in the requested
time frame by VUZIX.
	 
	5.2	 	If RESELLER elects to exercise its right to manufacture the Products, RESELLER will notify
VUZIX in writing. In the event the RESELLER does not manufacture the Products itself,
RESELLER will before it has contracted with any third party manufacturer, provide notice of
its selection along with enough information (including the option for VUZIX to physically
visit) for VUZIX to investigate and approve any such third party manufacturers
before proceeding. RESELLER shall not retain or permit anyone to manufacture Products
without the prior written consent of VUZIX and such consent will be provided in a
reasonable time not to exceed 60 days, The written consent of VUZIX for RESELLER’s





Page 6 of 32









 











	 	 	choice
of third party manufacturers is not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, that VUZIX shall
have the absolute right to approve any manufacture who is, or is an Affiliate of, any
person who manufactures or sells any products (or any component thereof) that compete with
the Products. In the event that the RESELLER subsequently changes manufacturers, VUZIX must
re-approve the selection.






	5.3	 	RESELLER must use commercially reasonable diligent efforts to ensure that the Products, or
any Products components, manufactured by RESELLER are not sold or otherwise distributed,
exported, sold, leased or licensed outside of the Territory. Any failure of RESELLER to use
commercially reasonable diligent efforts to ensure that such distribution, export, sale, lease
or license does not occur outside of the Territory will be considered a material breach of
this Agreement for all purposes, including the right of termination set forth in Section 11.6.
	 
	5.4	 	(a) Notwithstanding Section 5.2, RESELLER acknowledges that the key components of the
Products, as described in Schedule D-I (the “Key Components”) will not be disclosed to
RESELLER and will not be manufactured by RESELLER. RESELLER will purchase the Key Components
exclusively from VUZIX, as set out in Schedule D. VUZIX shall sell the Key Components to
RESELLER at the same price it sells the same Key Components to other OEM customers purchasing
the same unit volumes and on the same terms. The price paid by a customer for a Key Component
will include all license fees or royalties paid with respect to the license, purchase, sale or
use of the Key Components and VUZIX’ or other parties’ intellectual property included in the
Key Component. If the price charged to another OEM customer is lower for purchases of the
same Key Components in equivalent volumes and on the same terms, the difference in price paid
by RESELLER to VUZIX, shall be adjusted retroactively to (i) the date on which such lower
purchase price was charged to the OEM, if such lower price was first charged after sales have
been made to RESELLER or (ii) the date on which sales were first made to RESELLER, if such
lower a purchase price was in effect on that date. If VUZIX ceases to sell Key Components to
such other OEM customer(s) at such lower prices, the purchase price to RESELLER shall be
adjusted (upward or downward) as of the applicable date to new the price being paid by such
OEM. Such an adjustment shall be made each time an adjustment is made in the purchase price
being paid by an OEM, but it will only cover the period of such pricing for the duration the
OEM is purchasing the Key Components.
	 
	(b)	 	VUZIX will take all commercially reasonable steps to ensure that the Key Components
incorporating VUZIX proprietary technology used in the manufacture of the Products are only
available for purchase through VUZIX and that the manufacturers of such Key Components for
VUZIX can not sell the Key Components to other third parties for use in substantially
similar products.
	 
	(c)	 	In the event there are no other third party customers other than the RESELLER that are
purchasing the Key Components from VUZIX to establish a reasonable basis for competitive
pricing, it is understood that the total dollar gross margin to be earned by VUZIX in
selling the Key Components shall not exceed the total dollar gross margin that VUZIX
otherwise earns by selling a finished product incorporating the same Key Components as a
finished product to its third party customers, less an allowance for the typical gross
margin that would be required for a third party manufacturer of like volumes of all the
other raw components and labor costs that get combined and assembled with the Key
Components into an equivalent finished product.
	 
	(d)	 	If the RESELLER has exercised its option to manufacture the Products using Key
Components as per Section 5.1, RESELLER may request, not more than twice annually
for VUZIX to provide its costing of all the non-Key Components required to manufacture a
specific video eyewear Product for informational purposes only. The RESELLER may request a
“verification” of such costing information provided by VUZIX, subject to an audit 




Page 7 of 32









 






	 	 	by an
independent third party under an obligation of confidentiality. All costs of any
verification audit will be the sole responsibility of the RESELLER and such audits are to
take place at VUZIX main office in Rochester, New York.
	5.5	 	VUZIX and RESELLER will use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate to maximize their
respective returns and have uninterrupted supply of Key Components sufficient to meet the
manufacturing needs of both Parties.
	 
	5.6	 	If RESELLER notifies VUZIX of its intent to manufacture the Products in the Territory, VUZIX
will within 90 days establish and maintain an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) for
the documentation and any other collateral materials related to manufacture of the Key
Components that VUZIX directly owns or controls, to the extent that VUZIX is legally entitled
to place such materials in escrow or deliver them to a third party with a recognized and
reputable third party escrow agent mutually agreed to by VUZIX and RESELLER (the “Escrow
Agent”). VUZIX will, pursuant to the Escrow Agreement deposit the documentation, information
and collateral materials necessary, useful and sufficient to enable someone skilled in the art
to manufacture and produce the Key Components, (collectively, the “Escrowed Materials”).
VUZIX will also deposit with the Escrow Agent all documentation, information and collateral
materials in respect of all upgrades, improvements, enhancements and other modifications to
the Key Components, within 30 days from the date that such upgrades, improvements and other
modifications become commercially available, and such upgrades, improvements and other
modifications shall form part of the Escrowed Materials. RESELLER will have the right to
receive the Escrowed Materials from the Escrow Agent if VUZIX ceases, without just cause to
provide RESELLER with the Key Components either directly or indirectly through a qualified
successor or subcontractor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Upon any release of the
Escrowed Materials to RESELLER pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, VUZIX hereby grants to
RESELLER a non-exclusive right to use and modify the Escrowed Materials for the sole purpose
of making, using and selling the Key Components for their inclusion in the finished Products
within the Territory, without the right to disclose, sublicense, assign or otherwise transfer
such right. All other terms of this Agreement shall remain in full force inclusive of the
payment of royalties to Vuzix and Territorial limitations.
	 
	5.7	 	RESELLER will be responsible for all costs related to manufacturing and setting up
manufacturing in the Territory, and for the maintenance of the Escrow Agreement. VUZIX will
provide RESELLER with all required knowledge, information and specifications to enable
RESELLER to manufacture the Products except for the Key Components.
	 
	5.8	 	If VUZIX wishes to use RESELLER as a manufacturer of Products outside the Territory, the
Parties will use good faith efforts to negotiate a suitable arrangement.
	 
	5.9	 	RESELLER will consult with VUZIX throughout the manufacturing process in order to ensure that
the Intellectual Property, as defined in Schedule D, is diligently protected, and that the
character and quality of the Product manufactured by RESELLER are substantially similar to the
character and quality of the Product manufactured by VUZIX, and based on appropriate industry
standards. Samples of all RESELLER manufactured Product shall be provided to VUZIX at least
quarterly, or at such more frequent intervals as VUZIX may request, so that VUZIX can insure
their performance and quality before they are sold.
	 
	5.10	 	RESELLER will be responsible for all costs related to warranties for the Products it
manufactures, with the exception of costs related to warranties for Key Components, which
costs VUZIX will be responsible for.

	5.11	 	VUZIX will provide technical assistance where reasonably necessary to assist RESELLER in the
manufacturing of the Products in the Territory, on a cost recovery basis to VUZIX.
	 
	6.	 	IMPROVEMENTS
	 
	6.1	 	RESELLER will have the right to modify the Products (if RESELLER is manufacturing the
Product) or request VUZIX to modify the Products (if RESELLER is not manufacturing the
Product) at RESELLER’s expense as may be required or desired to improve the Products or to
make the Products suitable for sale in the Territory where such modifications exceed UL, FCC,
or CE cost equivalents. VUZIX will use commercially reasonable efforts (taking into account
such factors as Vuzix’ capacity for its other requirements and the general utility of such
modifications) to comply with any such requests received from RESELLER. Such improvements to
the Products made by RESELLER will, at VUZIX’s option, be licensed back to VUZIX for its
worldwide use, outside the Territory based on RESELLER’s actual costs relating to the
improvement prorated reasonably over the total number of units of Products anticipated to be
produced by both RESELLER and VUZIX over a 24 month period. After the 24 month period, the
license will be royalty free.
	 
	7.	 	RIGHT TO VERIFY
	 
	7.1	 	VUZIX will have the right to verify the unit sales of Products, royalty amounts (if
applicable under Section 5), and the protection of Intellectual Property, and RESELLER will
promptly provide VUZIX with such accurate and complete information upon request: RESELLER
shall provide VUZIX the right to periodically have an independent third party perform an
audit, but not more than once annually, of the books and records of RESELLER to verify the
accuracy and correctness of the royalty payments to VUZIX under a standard non-disclosure
agreement. RESELLER agrees that it will provide reasonable access to its facilities and
personnel for purposes of verifying compliance In the event it is determined as a result of
such audit that RESELLER has underpaid or under-reported royalty payments due to VUZIX by more
than five percent (5%) in any period, RESELLER will be required to reimburse VUZIX immediately
for the costs of the audit, all unpaid and overdue Royalty payments, plus pay accrued interest
of 1.5% per month, and a fifty percent (50%) penalty on any such unpaid royalties. In the
event royalty payments have been intentionally or negligently underpaid by 10% of more,
RESELLER will be deemed to have made a material breach of this Agreement and Vuzix may in
addition to other remedies recover the amounts together with a fifty percent (50%) penalty and
interest at the rate of 1.5% per month and may terminate this Agreement pursuant to the
provisions of Section 11.6.
	 
	7.2	 	RESELLER has the right to verify their actual purchase price of the Products that it
purchases from VUZIX to ensure compliance with the best pricing for equivalent volumes under
the provisions of Section 4.1 of this Agreement, and VUZIX will promptly provide RESELLER with
such accurate and complete information (other than the names of its customers) upon request
not more than twice annually. For the purposes of this clause, RESELLER shall not make any
direct contact with other VUZIX customers. The “verification” shall be based upon material
provided by Vuzix, subject to audit not more than once annually, by an independent third party
under an obligation of confidentiality. In the event it is determined as a result of such
review that VUZIX has over charged RESELLER more than five percent (5%) in any period, VUZIX
will be required to reimburse RESELLER immediately for the costs of the review, all over
charged amounts,
plus pay accrued interest of 1.5% per month. In the event costs have been intentionally or
negligently over charged by 10% of more, VUZIX will be deemed to have made a material
breach of this Agreement and RESELLER may recover the amount of such

		 	overpayment, together
with interest at the rate of 1.5% per month, and may terminate this Agreement pursuant to
the provisions of Section 11.6.
	 
	7.3	 	After the RESELLER has exercised its option to manufacture under Section 5 of this Agreement,
RESELLER will have the right to verify that it is paying the correct purchase price of the Key
Components that it purchases from VUZIX, and VUZIX will promptly provide RESELLER with such
accurate and complete information (other than the names of its customers) upon request not
more than twice annually. For the purposes of this clause, RESELLER shall not make any direct
contact with other VUZIX customers or suppliers. The “verification” shall be based upon
material provided by Vuzix, subject to audit not more than once annually by an independent
third party under an obligation of confidentiality. In the event it is determined as a result
of such review that VUZIX has over charged RESELLER more than five percent (5%) in any period,
VUZIX will be required to reimburse RESELLER immediately for the costs of the review, all over
charged amounts, plus pay accrued interest of 1.5% per month. In the event costs have been
intentionally or negligently over charged by 10% of more, VUZIX will be deemed to have made a
material breach of this Agreement and RESELLER may recover the amount of such overpayment,
together with interest at the rate of 1.5% per month, and may terminate this Agreement
pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.6.

manufactured outside of the Territory, for a period of one year after delivery to RESELLER,
VUZIX will promptly repair or replace any Products that do not meet the warranty set out in
Section 8.1. RESELLER will be the contact for all warranty claims by customers within the
Territory, and will maintain adequate inventory of Products in order to ensure that customers
within the Territory have prompt access to replacement Products. If RESELLER has exercised
its option to manufacture the Products in the Territory under Section 5, RESELLER will be
responsible for all Product warranties in the Territory, with the exception of warranties for
Key Components, which VUZIX will be responsible for. In the event VUZIX determines to pay
RESELLER to provide warranty service for Products in the Territory, VUZIX and RESELLER will in
good faith negotiate such an arrangement.

if the Products are used under condition beyond the scope set forth in the Product manuals.

damage due to improper operation or maintenance, connection to improper voltage supply, or
attempted repair by anyone other than VUZIX or a VUZIX’ authorized service facility.
	 
	8.4	 	REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT AS PROVIDED UNDER THE PRODUCT WARRANTY IS THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY OF THE
CONSUMER. VUZIX SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF
ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT AN EXCLUSION OF
SUCH LIABILITY IS
PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW. VUZIX SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. ANY WARRANTY ON THE PRODUCTS IS LIMITED
IN DURATION TO THE DURATION OF THE SPECIFIC PRODUCT WARRANTY, AS SET

VUZIX’s cost, any claim against RESELLER (including, for the purposes of this section only,
RESELLER’s end-user customer, or third parties to whom RESELLER is authorized by VUZIX to
resell or sublicense) and VUZIX will indemnify and hold RESELLER harmless for any loss, damage
or liability (including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs of litigation) relating to all
third party product liability claims or allegations, all enforceable claims by any third party

allegations that the Products or Key Components, delivered under this Agreement infringe a
third party patent, utility model, industrial design, copyright, trade secret, mask work,

	9.2	 	If such a claim appears likely, VUZIX may modify the Products or the Key Components, as
applicable, so that they are no longer infringing or unsafe, procure any necessary license, or
replace them. If VUZIX determines that none of these alternatives is reasonably available,
VUZIX will refund RESELLER’s purchase price upon return of the Products or the Key Components,
as applicable, if within one (1) year of Delivery\.
	 
	9.3	 	Not withstanding the prior Section 9.1 and 9.2, VUZIX has no obligation for any claim of
infringement arising from: (1) VUZIX’ compliance with RESELLER’s designs, specifications or
instructions; (2) unauthorized Product modification by RESELLER or a third party; (3) Product

(including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs of litigation) against and hold VUZIX harmless
from any and all enforceable claims by any third party resulting directly from RESELLER’s
acts, omissions or representations, other than those acts, omissions or representations
permitted under this Agreement, regardless of the form of action. Provided that such
indemnity is conditional upon VUZIX promptly notifying RESELLER in writing of any such claim,
VUZIX cooperating fully with RESELLER in and granting to RESELLER sole control of the defense
or settlement of such claim and VUZIX complying
fully with the terms of any such settlement. NOTWITHSTANDING THE ABOVE, UNDER NO
CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL RESELLER BE LIABLE TO VUZIX FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTIAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOST PROFITS,
BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION OR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS ARISING OUT
OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY ACTS, OMISSIONS OR REPRESENTATIONS OF RESELLER, EVEN IF RESELLER
HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
	 
	9.5	 	The terms in this Section and the end user warranty attached as schedules to this Agreement,
state VUZIX’ entire liability to RESELLER and its customers for claims of intellectual
property infringement. Such warranty, including all of the disclaimers and limitations
contained therein, shall be included with all Product sold by RESELLER to its customers.
	 
	9.6	 	VUZIX MAKES NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS AS TO PERFORMANCE OF VUZIX’S PRODUCTS OR AS TO
SERVICE TO RESELLER TO ANY OTHER PERSON, EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN VUZIX’S LIMITED WARRANTY
CONTAINED HEREIN AND THE END USER WARRANTY AS CONTAINED IN THE ATTACHED SCHEDULES TO THIS
AGREEMENT AND WITH THE PRODUCTS. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW AND EXCEPT
AS PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, ALL VUZIX PRODUCTS ARE DELIVERED “AS IS” AND WITHOUT EXPRESS OR

ERROR-FREE OR WILL OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION.
	 
	9.7	 	UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL VUZIX OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE TO RESELLER, END-USER CUSTOMERS
OR ANY THIRD PARTIES ON ACCOUNT OF ANY CLAIM (WHETHER BASED UPON PRINCIPLES OF CONTRACT,
WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER TORT, BREACH OF ANY STATUTORY DUTY, PRINCIPLES OF INDEMNITY, THE
FAILURE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY TO ACHIEVE

	 	 	ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, OR OTHERWISE) FOR ANY SPECIAL,
INDIRECT, INCIDENTIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, ANY OTHER
PECUNIARY LOSS OR FOR ANY DAMAGES OR SUMS PAID BY RESELLER TO THIRD PARTIES, ARISING OUT OF
THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE PRODUCTS OR THE PROVISION OF OR FAILURE TO PROVIDE SUPPORT
SERVICES, EVEN IF VUZIX HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
	 
	9.8	 	VUZIX’ MAXIMUM LIABILITY UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO THE AMOUNTS PAID
BY RESELLER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT OF END-USER CUSTOMERS OR ANY THIRD PARTIES,

COMPONENTS THAT MALFUNCTION IN CONDITIONS OF NORMAL USE DUR ING THE APPLICABLE WARRANTY PERIOD
	 
	9.9	 	The foregoing paragraph (Section 9.7) shall be included with all Products sold by RESELLER to
its customers.
	 
	10.	 	RESELLER’S STATUS AND MISCELLANEOUS RESPONSIBILITIES
	 
	10.1	 	RESELLER is an independent contractor, not an employee of VUZIX. This Agreement does not
create an employer-employee, a franchisor-franchisee or a principal-agent relationship between
VUZIX and RESELLER. RESELLER is not authorized, nor will it represent that it has, any power,
right or authority to enter into agreements for or on behalf of VUZIX, to create any
obligation due or owed VUZIX, to accept service of process on VUZIX or to bind VUZIX in any
manner.
	 
	10.2	 	VUZIX grants RESELLER an exclusive, royalty-free license to display one or more designated
VUZIX trade-marks, logo types, trade names and insignia (“VUZIX Marks”) in the Territory
solely to promote, distribute and sell the Products, and to otherwise meet RESELLER’s
obligations under this Agreement. Any display of VUZIX Marks must be in good taste, in a
manner that preserves their value as VUZIX Marks, and in accordance with written standards
provided by VUZIX for their display and use. RESELLER will not use any name or symbol in a
way, which may imply that RESELLER is an agency or branch of VUZIX. RESELLER will discontinue
any such use of a name or mark as requested by VUZIX promptly upon notice. RESELLER will use
commercially reasonable efforts to provide VUZIX with copies of any materials using the VUZIX
Marks in advance of any public use. RESELLER will comply with any VUZIX suggestions it
receives back in writing. Any rights or purported rights in any VUZIX Marks acquired through
RESELLER’s use belong solely to VUZIX, and any goodwill in the VUZIX Marks will accrue to
VUZIX. Upon termination of this Agreement, RESELLER promptly discontinue any use of the VUZIX
Marks and promptly remove the VUZIX Marks from all invoices, displays, telephone directories,
trade literature and all other advertising medium. Failure to discontinue the use of VUZIX
Marks as required hereunder shall constitute trademark infringement. VUZIX Marks may be used
only on or in connection with the sale and marketing of the Products in the Territory.
	 
	10.3	 	RESELLER grants VUZIX the non-exclusive, royalty free right to display RESELLER’s name or
trademarks, service marks and logos (“RESELLER Marks”) in advertising and promotional material
solely for directing prospective purchasers of Products to RESELLER’s selling locations. Any
display of the RESELLER Marks must be in good taste, in a manner that preserves their value as
RESELLER Marks, and in accordance with standards provided by RESELLER for their display. Any
rights or purported rights in any RESELLER Marks acquired by VUZIX through this Agreement
belong solely to 




Page 13 of 32









 






	 	 	RESELLER, and any goodwill in the RESELLER Marks will accrue to the RESELLER.
Upon termination of this Agreement, VUZIX agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to
promptly discontinue any use of the RESELLER Marks and promptly remove the RESELLER Marks from
all invoices, displays, telephone directories, trade literature and all other advertising
medium. Failure to discontinue the use of the RESELLER Marks as required shall constitute
trademark infringement.
	10.4	 	Each Party acknowledges that all manufacturing specifications and data, all Escrowed
Materials, financial information, sales and marketing information, distribution agreements and
their terms, repair, replacement and maintenance information and data related to the Products
or this Agreement which are obtained by one Party (the “Recipient”) from or about the other
(the “Discloser”) is commercially valuable confidential information (the “Confidential
Information”) of the Discloser. Each Party shall use the Confidential Information of the
Discloser solely in connection with the distribution or manufacturing of the Products and the
furtherance of this Agreement and shall not use or disclose the Confidential Information for
any other purpose.
	 
	10.5	 	In the event that Confidential Information is exchanged, each Party will protect the
Confidential Information of the other in the same manner in which it protects its own like
proprietary, confidential, and trade secret information and will use it only for purposes of
this Agreement. Information shall be considered Confidential Information If the Discloser
furnishes such information in writing and marks such information as “Confidential” or if
such information is provided orally, such information shall be considered Confidential
Information if (a) the Discloser summarizes the content of oral disclosures which are
proprietary or confidential within thirty (30) days of its communication, and (b) such
information was identified as confidential or proprietary when orally disclosed. All such
Confidential Information will remain confidential for the term of this Agreement plus five
(5) years.
	 
	10.6	 	Notwithstanding sections 10.5 and 10.6, there is no obligation upon a Recipient with respect
to Confidential Information which (a) was demonstrably in the Recipient’s possession before
the disclosure without restriction on its use or disclosure; (b) is or becomes a matter of
public knowledge through no fault of the Recipient; (c) is rightfully received by the
Recipient from a third party without a duty of confidentiality to the Discloser; (d) is
disclosed by the Discloser to a third party without a duty of confidentiality on the third
party; (e) is demonstrably independently developed by the Recipient without the use of any
other Confidential Information; (f) is disclosed under (and only to the extent required by)
operation of law; or (g) is disclosed by the Recipient with the Discloser’s prior written
approval.
	 
	11.	 	TERM AND TERMINATION
	 
	11.1	 	This Agreement will have a term of five (5) years from the Effective Date and will renew
automatically, subject to 11.3, on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date for a further
five (5) year period, unless RESELLER is then in breach of this Agreement.
	 
	11.2	 	RESELLER may terminate this Agreement at any time by giving VUZIX six (6) months prior
written notice.




Page 14 of 32









 






	11.3	 	The “Minimum Business Volume” MBV requirements for the Territory for each measurement period
along with bench marks for such minimums where they have not yet been finalized, are listed in
Schedule B of this Agreement. New MBV requirements must be negotiated in good faith and in
accordance with the bench marks set out in Schedule B for the automatic renewal in Section
11.1 to take place. This Agreement may be terminated by VUZIX if RESELLER fails to meet the
sales volume goals established by VUZIX and RESELLER for any period, as specified in Schedule
B to this Agreement.
	 
	11.4	 	The RESELLER’s Initial Funding Target, Initial Funding and Operational Date, Date of
Determination for Minimum Cumulative Sales and Minimum Cumulative Sales Requirements, and
Minimum Business Volumes requirements are listed in Schedule B of this Agreement. VUZIX shall
have the right to terminate this Agreement under Section 11.6 if the RESELLER does not meet
such requirements. Such termination shall be effective upon the giving of notice by VUZIX.
	 
	11.5	 	If either Party becomes insolvent, is unable to pay its debt when due, files for bankruptcy,
is the subject of involuntary bankruptcy, has a receiver appointed, or has its assets
assigned, the other Party may terminate this Agreement on thirty (30) days written notice and
may cancel any unfulfilled obligations.
	 
	11.6	 	Either Party may terminate this Agreement because of a material breach by the other Party of
this Agreement unless such other Party cures the breach within thirty (30) days after having
been advised in writing of such breach by the non-breaching Party.
	 
	11.7	 	Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, all amounts owed from either Party to the other Party shall immediately become due,
and RESELLER shall not thereafter represent or hold itself out as an
authorized VUZIX reseller or engage in any practices that might make it appear that
RESELLER is still an authorized VUZIX reseller. Upon termination or expiration, RESELLER
will immediately cease to be an authorized VUZIX reseller and will among other things, not
use any VUZIX Marks and will cause all of its authorized sub-resellers to cease using any
VUZIX Marks. Authorization of VUZIX to use any of RESELLER’s trade-marks will
automatically cease upon such termination or expiration.
	 
	11.8	 	Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, VUZIX reserves the right (without any
obligation to do so) to repurchase from RESELLER, any or all Products then in the possession
or under the control of RESELLER that are still unopened, in new merchantable condition and in
their original packaging. Such repurchase shall be made at the actual price paid for such
Products by RESELLER, FOB RESELLER’s principal place of business, less any and all amounts
then owing, for whatever reasons, from RESELLER to VUZIX. Such right must be exercised by
giving written notice thereof within Sixty (60) days from the date of expiration or from the
date notice of termination was given, as the case may be.
	 
	11.9	 	Acceptance of orders by VUZIX after notice of termination has been given shall be construed
as separate transactions and shall not operate as a renewal or revival of this Agreement or as
a waiver of such termination. VUZIX reserves the right for any reason and in its sole
discretion to accept or reject, in whole or in part, any such orders and apply any new terms
of sale. If no new terms of sale are agreed to by the parties but the order is nevertheless
accepted by VUZIX, then the applicable terms of this Agreement shall apply to such order.
	 
	11.10	 	All obligations concerning outstanding transactions, warranties, support, Products,
intellectual property protection, limitations of liability and remedies, confidentiality, and
the general terms and conditions will survive termination or expiration of this Agreement,





Page 15 of 32









 











	 	 	except that the provisions for confidentially will survive only through the periods set forth
in this Agreement.
	 
	11.11	 	The Party terminating this Agreement pursuant to the express provisions hereof shall not
incur any liability to the other Party by reason of termination of this Agreement either for
compensation or damages on account of the loss of present or prospective profits or
expenditures or investments or for any reason.
	 
	11.12	 	The term “Force Majeure” as employed in this Section means and includes the causes beyond
the reasonable control of the Party so affected, including, but not limited to, war (declared
or undeclared), hostility, riot, revolution, embargo, fire, earthquake, flood, or other acts
of God. The Party so affected shall use its best efforts to provide the other Party with a
prompt written notice within fourteen (14) days after occurrence thereof.
	 
	11.13	 	If the performance of this Agreement or any obligation hereunder is prevented, delayed,
restricted or intervened with by reason of the Force Majeure, the Party so affected shall be
excused from such performance to the extent of such prevention, delay, restriction or
interference and such shall not constitute a breach of this agreement, provided, however, that
the Party so affected shall use its best efforts to avoid or remove such causes of
non-performance and whenever those are removed, it shall commence and/or continue performance
promptly. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing shall relieve the RESELLER from any payment
obligations under this Agreement.
	 
	11.14	 	Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Force Majeure remains uncured for a
period of Two (2) months, the Party not so affected may, at no charge and without any
liability to the Party so affected (other than the obligation to pay amounts due or to become
due and the obligation to continue to be bound by the terms of this Agreement that expressly
or by their nature survive termination), cancel all orders and terminate this Agreement on
prior written notice to the Party so affected.
	 
	12.	 	ASSIGNMENTS AND OPTIONS TO BUY
	 
	12.1	 	This Agreement and the rights of RESELLER hereunder may not be assigned or otherwise
transferred by RESELLER without the prior written consent of VUZIX, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that it shall not be unreasonable for VUZIX to
withhold its consent to such an assignment or transfer for any negative tax or corporate
structure reasons or if the proposed assignment or transfer is to be made to a supplier of
parts or components to VUZIX, to a party that performs manufacturing services of the Products
or Key Components for or on behalf of VUZIX, to a Competitor of VUZIX or to an Affiliate (as
both defined in Section 12.2) of any of such persons.
	 
	12.2	 	If RESELLER receives a bona fide offer (an “Offer”) from a third party that is a Competitor
of VUZIX (as hereinafter defined) (the “Offeror”) to purchase an Interest (as hereinafter
defined) in RESELLER, VUZIX shall have a right of first refusal to purchase such Interest, on
the same terms and conditions as those proposed by the Offeror. If RESELLER receives and
wishes to accept an Offer, it shall send a written notice (the “Notice of Offer”) to VUZIX,
which shall set forth the identity of the Offeror, the Interest proposed to be sold, the sale
price, the manner of payment thereof, and all other terms and conditions of the Offer. VUZIX
shall then have the right, to be exercised by notice in writing given to RESELLER within 30
days of the receipt of the Notice of Offer, to acquire such Interest, on the same terms and
conditions as are contained in the Notice of Offer. During the 30 day period following the
Notice of Offer, VUZIX shall have the right to conduct such due diligence with respect to
RESELLER and the Interest as it may reasonably require, and RESELLER shall cooperate in such
due diligence review in all such respects as VUZIX may reasonably require. If (and provided
that it has received the right to conduct such due review) VUZIX does not exercise its right
of first refusal within 30 days of the Notice of Offer, then RESELLER may sell the Interest to
such third party on the same (but not





Page 16 of 32









 











		 	on any other) terms as contained in the Notice of Offer.
If it does not consummate such sale within such period, its right to sell to the third party
free of VUZIX’s right of first refusal shall expire.
	 
	 	 	For purposes of this Section 12.2,
	 
	 	 	“Interest” means an equity interest, or a right to acquire or that is convertible into an
equity interest, as a result of the ownership of which a person or entity has or has the
right to acquire the ability to (a) control the business or operations of RESELLER or (b)
own more than 50% of the equity interests in or assets of RESELLER,
	 
	 	 	“Competitor” shall mean a party that, at the time of the Offer, (a) is selling products
similar to the Products or (b) that has publicly stated its intention to sell such products
or (c) has as its primary business the manufacture and resale or OEM of audio, video,
computer, video game, or entertainment hardware products to the consumer electronics
sector, or any Affiliate of such a person. Competitor does not include any entity whose
primary business is being a wireless cell phone operator or carrier; a financial
institution; video game online operator or manufacturer (software publisher); or a content
provider.
	 
	 	 	“Affiliate” means any person or entity that controls, is controlled by or is under common
control with another person or entity.
	 
	12.3	 	(a)     If at any time after the expiry of the initial 5 years terms
of this Agreement VUZIX or its shareholders shall enter into
negotiations with a third party, or receive a proposal from
a third party, regarding (i) the sale or transfer of
substantially all of the equity interests of VUZIX, whether
by purchase, merger or otherwise, (ii) the sale or transfer
of substantially all of the assets of VUZIX, whether by
purchase, merger or otherwise or (iii) the sale or transfer
of those assets of VUZIX that are used in the production,
distribution and sale of the Products, whether by purchase,
merger or otherwise (together, a “Sale Transaction”), then
VUZIX shall give RESELLER notice of the proposed Sale
Transaction (the “Sale Transaction Notice”), and RESELLER
shall treat all information regarding such discussions or
proposals (including the fact thereof) as Confidential
Information in accordance with Article 10 of this Agreement.
	 
	 	 	(b)     In the event of a Sale Transaction, VUZIX shall have an option to convert RESELLER’s
right to distribute Products in the Territory to a nonexclusive right (that is subject in
all other respects to the identical terms and conditions contained in this Agreement).
Such option shall be exercised, if at all, in the Sale Transaction Notice, but shall not be
effective unless the Sale Transaction is completed in accordance with its terms. The amount
to be paid by VUZIX for such conversion, as the case may be, shall be the Fair Value of the
rights converted, as determined in accordance with Section 12.3 (c) herein.
	 
	 	 	(c)     For purposes of this Section 12.3, the Fair Value shall be the difference as of thirty
(30) days prior to closing date of the Sale Transaction between RESELLER’s exclusive and
RESELLER’s nonexclusive right to resell the Products and shall be determined by the average
valuations of two appraisers who are experienced in valuing business for purposes of sale,
one of which shall be selected by each of the parties; provided, however, that if the
appraisals differ by more than 10% of the higher appraisal, the two appraisers shall select
a third appraiser who is similarly qualified, and (x) if the third appraiser’s appraisal is
between the first two, the Fair Value shall be as determined by the average of the first
two and (y) if the third appraisal is either higher or lower than both of the first two
appraisals, then the third appraisal shall be used as Fair Value. All fees and other costs
related this Section 12.3, including all appraisal fees incurred by the parties pursuant to
Section 12.3(c) herein, will be paid by VUZIX. The Fair Value will be determined by the
appraisers taking into account, among other things considered 




Page 17 of 32









 






	 	 	relevant, the amount of time
remaining in the then current renewal term of this Agreement.






	 	 	(d)     VUZIX may, at its option, pay the Fair Value amount determined pursuant to Section
12.3(c) in cash or in shares of its Common Stock, based upon the valuation of such shares
on the closing date of the Sale Transaction. The Fair Value amount determined pursuant to
Section 12.3 (c) will be paid upon completion of the Sale Transaction, or such other time
as expressly agreed by RESELLER.
	 
	 	 	(e)     If the Sale Transaction involves the receipt by VUZIX’s shareholder of the securities
of another entity, VUZIX will use commercially reasonable efforts to have any such
securities received by RESELLER or its shareholders treated in the same manner, and subject
to the same rights and restrictions as are applicable to the securities received by VUZIX’s
shareholders in such Sale Transaction, provided that RESELLER and its shareholders satisfy
such obligations in connection with such securities as are applicable to other shareholders
of VUZIX.
	 
	 	 	(f)     Other than as expressly set out under Section 12.3(b), all other rights and obligations
of the parties under this Agreement will continue unaffected by the application of Section
12.3(b)
	 
	 	 	(g)     This Section 12.3 will not affect or limit the right of VUZIX to (i) acquire the
RESELLER or any of its securities on the open market or through a tender offer if the
RESELLER is a public company; or (ii) negotiating to buy the RESELLER outright; (iii) or
negotiating to buy-out this Agreement or any of the RESELLER’s right hereunder.
	 
	12.4	 	(a)     If VUZIX is involved in a Sale Transaction that closes with a third party within the first
5 year term of this Agreement, then at any time after the expiry of the initial 5 year term of
this Agreement, then the other party to the Sale Transaction shall have an option exercisable
notice to RESELLER 3 months in advance to convert RESELLER’s right to distribute Products to a
nonexclusive right (that is subject in all other respects to the identical terms and
conditions contained in this Agreement), subject to such party’s or VUZIX’s payment
(“Compensation”) to the RESELLER of the difference as of the date of the notice of the
exercise of such option between the value of RESELLER’s exclusive and the value of RESELLER’s
nonexclusive right to resell the Products in the Territory for the remainder of the renewal
term of this Agreement. The amount of such values and the difference between them shall be
determined in accordance with Section 12.4 (b) herein.
	 
	 	 	(b)     For purposes of this Section 12.4, the Compensation shall be determined by the average
valuations of the difference between such exclusive and nonexclusive rights as determined
by two appraisers who are experienced in valuing business for purposes of sale, one of
which shall be selected by each of the parties; provided, however, that if the appraisals
differ by more than 10% of the higher appraisal, the two appraisers shall select a third
appraiser who is similarly qualified, and (x) if the third appraiser’s appraisal is between
the first two, the Compensation shall be as determined by the average of the first two and
(y) if the third appraisal is either higher or lower than both of the first two
appraisals, then the third appraisal’s valuation shall be used as the Compensation. All
fees and other costs related this Section 12.4, including all appraisal fees incurred by
the parties pursuant to Section 12.4(b) herein, will be paid by such other party to the
Sale Transaction or VUZIX, as the case may be. The form and settlement of the Compensation
will be negotiated by the parties, acting reasonably, at that time. If the parties are
unable to agree on the form and settlement of the Compensation, other than in the form of
cash, within thirty (30) days after the determination of the Compensation amount determined
by the appraisers, then the option granted to the new owner (the





Page 18 of 32









 











		 	other party to the Sale
Transaction) will expire and the exclusive right granted to RESELLER herein will not be
converted into a nonexclusive right. The Compensation will be determined by the appraisers
taking into account, among other things considered relevant, the amount of time remaining
in the then current renewal term of this Agreement, namely the entire 5 year renewal term.
	 
	 	 	(c)     Other than as expressly set out under Section 12.4 (a), all other rights and
obligations of the parties under this Agreement will continue unaffected by the application
of Section 12.3(b)
	 
	12.5	 	RESELLER agrees to offer VUZIX the option to purchase up to $[***********] of any financing
that it undertakes in its efforts to achieve its Initial Funding Targets (as defined in
Schedule B) by December 31, 2009. The VUZIX investment option would be on the same terms and
conditions as all the RESELLER’s other investors and adequate time is to be given to VUZIX to
evaluate this investment.
	 
	13.	 	CHOICE OF LAW AND CORRECTIVE CHANGES
	 
	13.1	 	This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
New York, USA without regard to its conflict or choice of law provisions.
	 
	13.2	 	The parties agree to make any required reasonable changes within 60 days from the signing of
this Agreement, to make the main terms of this Agreement enforceable in the Territory and with
no negative tax or other consequences to VUZIX and to ensure that this Agreement does not have
any unintended consequences to either party.
	 
	13.3	 	Both parties acknowledge that they have obtained their own legal representation in the
negotiation of this Agreement. In the construction of any terms in this Agreement, no term
shall be construed against any Party on the basis of that Party having drafted that language.
	 
	14.	 	ARBITRATION
	 
	14.1	 	RESELLER and VUZIX agree to first enter into negotiations to resolve any controversy, claim
or dispute (“Dispute”) arising under or relating to this Agreement. The Parties agree to
negotiate in good faith to reach a mutually agreeable resolution of such Dispute within a
reasonable period of time. If the Parties are unable to resolve any Dispute within 30 days,
or such other period agreed to in writing by the Parties, the Dispute will be referred to and
finally resolved by binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial
Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. A total of three

Page 19 of 32









 






	15.1	 	In the event that either VUZIX or RESELLER waives any right under any provision of this
Agreement, such waiver by either Party shall not constitute a waiver with regard to any other
rights set forth in this Agreement or a waiver of the provision in the future.
	 
	16.	 	VALIDITY OF AGREEMENT
	 
	16.1	 	VUZIX and RESELLER agree that if any portion of this Agreement is found to be invalid such
portion may be severed from the Agreement, such a finding does not serve to invalidate any
other provision of this Agreement, nor does such a finding serve to invalidate this Agreement

SCHEDULE A




TERRITORY




     RESELLER’s exclusive Territory is Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan




Page 22 of 32









 








SCHEDULE B




PRODUCTS and MINIMUM BUSINESS VOLUMES



In this Agreement “Products” means all present and future consumer video eyewear products produced
and/or sold by VUZIX or its licensed third party partners or OEMs, including any video eyewear
products incorporating Key Components and all improvements and accessories, and any other consumer
near eye display products produced by VUZIX in the present and future. A Unit means a single
Product.




Minimum Business Volume (“MBV”) Requirements: 





	 	-	 	MBV refers to the minimum unit sales of Products by RESELLER or RESELLER
purchases of complete sets of Key Components incorporated into Products in the Vendor
manufacturing stage of this Agreement.
	 
	 	-	 	The initial or first Date of Determination shall be the later of 18 months
after November 30, 2009. The Minimum Cumulative sales or MBV for this first Date of
Determination is [*********] Units. Product compliance testing per Chinese CCC rules
(“CCC”) will commence with either the Wrap 310 or Wrap 920 Product from VUZIX, as
chosen by RESELLER. RESELLER is responsible for all costs of obtaining certifications
and compliance with any regulatory CCC rules required for the import, sale or
manufacturing of all Products in the Territory. VUZIX and RESELLER will cooperate
fully with each other in the getting Territory regulatory approvals and VUZIX will use
its best commercial efforts and at its own cost to make any necessary modifications to
its standard Products to comply with any such regulations or certifications. To the
extent that VUZIX is required to make hardware changes to the Products and if their
time to implement those changes totals more than 2 weeks for further compliance
testing with CCC, then the 18 month period’s first Date of Determination will be
extended by the amount of time required for such changes (i.e. a 5 week Product change
would mean the 18 month period gets extended out by 5 weeks).
	 
	 	-	 	VUZIX and RESELLER will negotiate in good faith at least 60 days prior to May
31, 2011 an update of the MBV on May 31, 2011, and subsequently on an annual basis
unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
	 
	 	-	 	In the event the parties cannot agree upon a MBV for any period after good
faith negotiations, the Agreement shall remain in good standing until such time as the
matter of the MBV has been referred to and determined by arbitration as set forth in
the Agreement. The ultimate determination from the arbitration process will be
retroactively applied to the beginning of the period for the purposes of calculating
the MBV for the 12 month period. If the matter of the MBV is submitted to arbitration,
both parties agree that the key bench marks to be considered by the arbitrators in
setting new MBV for the parties are:






	 	•	 	VUZIX’ Unit sales volumes in each of North America and in Europe for the
prior calendar year period, are to be averaged and considered as a starting
MBV from which the following factors (up and down) are to be considered in
determining the new MBV for the Territory:






	 	i.	 	The average Unit volumes in North America
and Europe are to exclude unusual Unit volumes caused by wireless
carrier OEM subsidies and partnership arrangements which artificially
reduces end user retail buying prices causing an increase in unit
volumes because of the implied lower end user buying price. This
exclusion from the average Unit volumes is only apply so long as
similar wireless carrier or OEM subsidies and partnership
arrangements are not taking place in the Territory.




Page 23 of 32









 






	 	ii.	 	If the market share of the Products in the
Territory is greater than that of VUZIX in the North American and in
Europe.
	 
	 	iii.	 	The per-capita sales in Japan are to also
be compared against the average per-capita sales in the North America
and Europe. In the event Japanese per-capita sales are less and it is
reasonably due primarily to cultural or other “Asian market
influences” which negatively affect sales, the Unit sales of the
North America and the European market places are to be discounted on
a reasonable basis when used as the benchmarks for the Territory.
	 
	 	iv.	 	VUZIX Product development timelines and the
timeliness of new or improved Products which result in increased
competitive advantage to the Products.






	 	•	 	In the event the RESELLER License becomes non-exclusive as per Section 1.4
of this Agreement, the criteria for the determination of the Minimum Business
Volumes for each annual period after the first Date of Determination will be
renegotiated and reduced accordingly. If the RESELLER falls below [***]% of
the total annual unit volume of VUZIX based video eyewear Products within the
Territory, then VUZIX will have the option to terminate this Agreement as per
Section 11, for RESELLER’s lack of performance.




Initial Funding Target for RESELLER: RESELLER will raise a minimum of $[***********] and open an
office in Beijing by [***************].



Initial Funding and Operational Date: [****************]



Minimum for Manufacturing Amount: [***********] units of Product and the RESELLER shall provide
VUZIX with a certificate advising VUZIX that in the RESELLER’s opinion RESELLER has sufficient
capital to undertake manufacturing operations with a viable business model of at least 12 months
and supporting materials to validate the certificate.



Minimum Cumulative sales of Products required by Date of Determination: [*********] units of
Product.

the web at our global site at www.vuzix.com, which will also identify any Vuzix subsidiary

Limitation of Liability




	18.3	 	VUZIX SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE OR DATA (WHETHER DIRECT OR
INDIRECT) OR COMMERCIAL LOSS FOR BREACH OF ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY ON YOUR PRODUCT
EVEN IF VUZIX HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. VUZIX’s maximum liability
under this limited warranty is limited, at Vuzix’s option, to the amounts originally paid by
you for the applicable hardware product or the cost of repair or replacement of any hardware
components that malfunction in conditions of normal use during the applicable warranty period.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of special, indirect, incidental
or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you, but the
remainder of this Limited Warranty shall remain in full force and effect.
	 	 	Duration of Implied Warranties

EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ON THIS HARDWARE PRODUCT IS LIMITED IN
DURATION TO THE LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD STATE ABOVE FOR YOUR PRODUCT. Some jurisdictions do
not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may
not apply to you. Please note that in the European Union, any warranty period less than two
years shall be increased to two years except in the case of use for commercial purposes.
