 (g) Governing Law; Binding Arbitration. This Agreement shall in all respects be construed in
accordance with and governed by the laws of the PRC, without regard to conflict of law principles. Except as permitted by Section 6 above, if the parties should have a material dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the
parties’ respective rights and duties hereunder, then the parties will resolve such dispute in the following manner: (i) any party may at any time deliver to the other a written dispute notice setting forth a brief description of the issue
for which such notice initiates the dispute resolution mechanism contemplated by this Section; (ii) during the thirty (30) day period following the delivery of the notice described above, appropriate representatives of the parties will
seek to resolve the disputed issue through negotiation; (iii) if representatives of the parties are unable to resolve the disputed issue through negotiation, then within ten (10) days after the period described above, the parties will
refer the issue (to the exclusion of a court of law) to final and binding arbitration, in accordance with the then existing International Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), and
judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof; , regardless of principles of conflicts of laws. In any arbitration pursuant to this Agreement, (i) the award or decision shall be
rendered by a majority of the members of a Board of Arbitration consisting of three (3) members, one of whom shall be appointed by each party and the third of whom shall be the chairman of the panel and be appointed by mutual agreement of said
two party-appointed arbitrators. In the event of failure of said two arbitrators to agree within thirty (30) days after the commencement of the arbitration proceeding upon the appointment of the third arbitrator, the third 

  

 7 








 
arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the Rules. In the event that either party shall fail to appoint an arbitrator within ten
(10) days after the commencement of the arbitration proceedings, such arbitrator and the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the Rules. Nothing set forth above shall be interpreted to prevent the parties from
agreeing in writing to submit any dispute to a single arbitrator in lieu of a three (3) member Board of Arbitration. Upon the completion of the selection of the Board of Arbitration (or if the parties agree otherwise in writing, a single
arbitrator), an award or decision shall be rendered within no more than thirty (30) days. 
 (h) Survival of Certain Obligations. The obligations of the
parties set forth in this Agreement that by their terms extend beyond or survive the termination or expiration of the Term will not be affected or diminished in any way by the termination or expiration of the Term. 
 (i) Severability. Each section and subsection of this Agreement constitutes a separate and distinct provision of this Agreement. It is the intent of the parties hereto
that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applicable in each jurisdiction. If any provision is determined to be invalid, ineffective or unenforceable in any jurisdiction,
the remaining provisions will not be affected thereby, and the invalid, ineffective or unenforceable provision will, without further action by the parties, be amended automatically to effect the original purpose and intent of the invalid,
ineffective, unenforceable provisions; provided, however, that such amendment will apply only with respect to the operation of such provision in the particular jurisdiction with respect to which such adjudication is made.

 Measurements of nd and Vd as well as evaluations of the striae and bubble group are used to qualify each melt. All other parameters are required only for the first melt. Upon completion of a new melt, the vendor should provide all the
required data as specified above. No performs should be fabricated from this new melt until approval has been received from customer. 
  

 10 








 The refractive index nd and abbe number Vd must be measured using refractometry. The refractive index of a prism cut from the new melt must be measured using an Abbe refractometer. For the first melt, measurements of the refractive index have to cover at
least 20 data points, from 400 nm to 1600 nm, including index at the following wavelengths: nf (at
486.13 nm), nd (at 587.56 nm), and nc (at 656.27 nm). For subsequent melts, only three data points can be measured: nf, nd, and nc. 
 Transmission t through an uncoated 10 mm thick witness sample (including reflection losses) must be measured from 400 nm to 1600 nm. 
 The variation of the refractive index with temperature (dn/dt) must be measured in a test chamber from – 40°C to + 80°C using an interferometric method. 
 The Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) must be measured in a test chamber using an interferometric method in two different ranges: – 40°C to 80°C and
TBD. 
 The test method for Tg determination must be Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). 
 The bubble group 1 is defined as the total cross section of bubbles in 100 ml of glass < 0.12 mm2. This bubble group should include other inclusions as well as bubbles. 
 All measurements must be made on fine annealed glass.
