ARTICLE 2

RIGHTS OF FIRST REFUSAL AND

PREFERRED SUPPLIER




2.1 Rights of First Refusal. ATS shall have the right of first refusal with respect to any offer
received from any third party or any agreement tentatively reached with any third party to supply
any equipment and related services of the type described in Schedule A hereto (“Offer”). Photowatt
shall promptly provide ATS with a copy of any such Offer. ATS shall have a period of 30 days after
delivery thereof within which to exercise its right of first refusal. The right of first refusal
may be exercised by delivery by ATS to Photowatt of a notice of acceptance. The terms and
conditions of such Offer with respect to price, equipment and services to be supplied, the
specifications thereof and delivery date shall, upon delivery of such notice of acceptance,
thereafter be binding upon ATS and Photowatt and ATS shall supply and Photowatt shall purchase the
equipment and services described in the Offer pursuant to those terms, provided that the terms of
this Agreement shall apply and be incorporated in such Offer and shall collectively constitute a
Project Agreement. If ATS does not exercise its right of first refusal, then Photowatt shall be
free to accept such Offer for the supply of such equipment and related services with the third
party provided that the terms of such Offer may not be revised without first providing the ATS with
its right of first refusal hereunder. Photowatt shall have the right
in its sole discretion to terminate this Section 2.1 and the
right of first refusal of ATS hereunder, by giving notice to ATS, if
ATS fails to perform any of its material obligations with respect to
the supply of any equipment to Photowatt pursuant to the right of
first refusal hereunder on two or more occasions and Photowatt shall
have notified ATS of such failures. In such event, all other
provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
ATS and Photowatt acknowledge that they may agree from time to time
to mutually waive the provisions of this Section 2.1 with
respect to any Offer, in which case Photowatt shall be free to accept
such Offer with the third party provided that the terms of such Offer
may not be revised without first providing ATS with its right of
first refusal hereunder (unless ATS agrees to waive such right).



2.2 Preferred Supplier. With respect to the supply of any equipment and related services of the
nature described in Schedule B hereto, ATS shall be Photowatt’s preferred supplier. If Photowatt
determines to purchase any equipment and related services of the nature described in Schedule B
hereto, then Photowatt shall send a written notice to ATS which shall contain a description of
Photowatt’s requirements with respect to such equipment and related services. Photowatt shall
allow ATS the opportunity to submit a bid with respect to the supply of the equipment and related
services described in such notice in accordance with this Section. If the parties reach agreement
with respect to the supply of such equipment and related services, then such agreement shall
constitute a Project Agreement for the purposes of this Agreement and the terms of this Agreement
shall apply.

ARTICLE 3

PROJECT AGREEMENTS




3.1 Project Agreements





	 	(a)	 	Project Agreements. From time to time during the term of this Agreement
including pursuant to the provisions of Article 2, ATS and Photowatt may agree
in writing that ATS shall provide certain Project Services and/or Deliverables in
connection with a particular project (“Project”) which the parties intend to be
governed by this Agreement. Each such project agreement shall reference this
Agreement, shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement, and shall be referred to
herein as a “Project Agreement”. Any agreements entered into pursuant to Section
2.1 and Section 2.2 shall be deemed to be Project Agreements and shall be
subject to the terms of this Agreement. Each Project Agreement shall be deemed to
include the terms of any quotation provided by ATS unless otherwise expressly provided
for. Any terms on Photowatt’s purchase order, other than terms addressing quantity and
price, shall be void and of no force notwithstanding any delivery under such purchase
order.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Affiliates. Should an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement enter into what
would otherwise be a Project Agreement with the other party to this Agreement or an
Affiliate of such other party, and should the parties to that Project Agreement
reference this Agreement as governing such Project, then the terms of this Agreement
shall apply to the same extent as if the parties to that Project Agreement were parties
to this Agreement and the terms “Photowatt” and “ATS” herein shall be amended as
required for the purposes of such Project Agreement.





3.2 Provision Of Services and Deliverables. Upon the execution or entering into of a Project
Agreement by both parties, ATS shall provide the Services and Deliverables specified in the Project
Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Project Agreement and the terms and
conditions of this Agreement. ATS shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Services
and Deliverables in accordance with any schedule set forth in a Project Agreement, or if no
schedule is set forth in such Project Agreement, in accordance with the schedule otherwise agreed
upon in writing between the parties. All scheduled completion dates are best estimates based on
current projections and based on Photowatt meeting its obligations and ATS shall not be liable for
delays in completion or delivery.



3.3 Price and Payment.




	 	(a)	 	Price and Payment. Photowatt and ATS will mutually agree to pricing for each
Project in the corresponding Project Agreement. Unless otherwise provided for in a
particular Project Agreement, all payments are due within 30 days of receipt of an
invoice from ATS. Photowatt shall pay interest at the prime rate quoted from time to
time by The Bank of Nova Scotia plus 2% on any amounts invoiced by ATS which are not
paid when due.










 



- 6 -








	 	(b)	 	Taxes. The prices quoted by ATS are exclusive of all applicable federal,
state/provincial or local taxes, unless otherwise stated. Photowatt shall pay the gross
amount of any present or future sales, use, excise, value added, or other similar tax
applicable to the price, sale or delivery of any Product, Project Service or
Deliverable furnished hereunder or to their use by Photowatt. Photowatt shall furnish
ATS with evidence of exemption from any such taxes acceptable to the taxing
authorities. Photowatt shall assess and remit any applicable tax to taxing authorities
not otherwise invoiced by ATS. If any tax in the nature of withholding tax is payable
on any sums invoiced under this Agreement, Photowatt shall pay ATS such amount as is
necessary to ensure that the net amount received by ATS after such withholding shall be
equal to the amount invoiced or otherwise required to be paid herein.





3.4 Design Changes. No changes to the design of a Product from that agreed upon in the Project
Agreement shall be binding unless agreed to in writing by both parties. Any such amendment to a
Project Agreement shall address the impact of such changes on costs and schedule. In the event ATS
agrees to undertake a design study for Photowatt to assess a potential design change, the schedule
for all materials or components affected by the design study shall be extended by a period of time
equal to the hold time, if any, associated with such study, whether or not the parties ultimately
agree to the proposed change.



3.5 Equipment Safety. ATS shall build the Product to comply with ATS’s interpretation of
applicable (OSHA or CSA) safety standards. ATS shall review equipment safety including guarding
designs with Photowatt at a design review meeting with the intent to maximize operator safety,
particularly with respect to all pinch points and moving parts. Photowatt shall advise ATS of any
required equipment safety or guarding changes no later than five (5) days following the date of
such design review meeting. Unless provided for in the Specifications, if Photowatt requests
deviation from ATS’s interpretation of the applicable safety standards, this shall be considered a
design change (See Section 5). ATS may decline any proposed change in the design by
Photowatt, if ATS has concerns regarding safety, reliability, performance or warranty service.



3.6 Photowatt Obligations. Unless otherwise stated in a Project Agreement, Photowatt agrees to
fulfill the following obligations in relation to each Project. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, if the following obligations of Photowatt are not met in a timely
manner, ATS will not be responsible for any impacts to the scope, schedule, budget, or any other
agreed terms and conditions set forth in the Project Agreement:




	 	(a)	 	Photowatt shall provide ATS in a timely manner with:






	 	(i)	 	all information necessary in order to comply
with its obligations under any Project Agreement or reasonably
requested by ATS;
	 
	 	(ii)	 	access to Photowatt’s and its Affiliates’
personnel and appropriate subject matter experts in connection with any
Project;










 



- 7 -


	 	(iii)	 	all required sample parts or other specified
items required by ATS to design, manufacture, test and install the
Product; and
	 
	 	(iv)	 	clear and unobstructed access to those portions
of Photowatt’s and its Affiliates’ premises required by ATS for
installation of the Product in a condition ready to receive the
Product; and






	 	(b)	 	Any documents submitted to Photowatt for comment or approval by ATS must be
reviewed in a timely manner by Photowatt for accuracy, completeness and conformance to
this Agreement. Failure of Photowatt to advise ATS in writing of material issues
associated with such documents within 5 business days of submission or resubmission
will be considered deemed approval of such documents.





In the event of any delay resulting from Photowatt’s failure to meet these obligations, the date of
delivery or of performance as set out in the applicable Project Agreement shall be extended for a
period equal to the period of such delay. ATS shall not, in such circumstances be liable for any
failure to fulfill any obligations under any Project Agreement and Photowatt shall pay ATS
compensation for the costs actually incurred by reason of such delay, including carrying charges,
transportation charges, storage charges, travel charges, personnel charges and reasonable overhead
and profit thereon.



3.7 Factory Acceptance and Site Acceptance. The following provisions apply with respect to the
acceptance of any Products forming part of the Deliverables:




	 	(a)	 	ATS and Photowatt shall agree in writing upon a test plan (“Test Plan”) within
20 business days of completion of the final designs for the Products, setting out the
criteria to be met, and the testing process to be employed, during the FAT (as defined
below) and the SAT (as defined below).
	 
	 	(b)	 	A factory acceptance test (“FAT”) shall be performed at ATS’s facility or such
facilities of ATS’s subcontractors as may be agreed upon in writing by the parties and
shall commence within five (5) business days of notice from ATS confirming completion
of the Products or at such other time as may be agreed upon in writing by the parties.
Such testing shall be carried out in accordance with the Test Plan. The FAT shall be
deemed successful when the results of the testing are in compliance with the Test
Plan’s criteria.
	 
	 	(c)	 	A Photowatt site acceptance test (“SAT”) shall be performed at Photowatt’s
facility within five (5) business days of the completion of installation of the
Products at Photowatt’s site. Such testing shall be carried out in accordance with the
Test Plan. The SAT shall be deemed successful when the results of the testing are in
compliance with the Test Plan’s criteria.
	 
	 	(d)	 	ATS shall carry out such remedial work as is necessary to achieve a successful
FAT and SAT at no additional charge to Photowatt, provided that any changes










 



- 8 -


	 	 	 	requested by Photowatt beyond those set forth in the Specifications may require
additional charges which shall be determined by mutual agreement by both parties and
reflected in a change order executed by the parties in accordance with Section
3.4. Once remedial work is complete, the Products will be re-tested and this
process shall continue until a successful FAT and SAT is achieved.






	 	(e)	 	In the event ATS and Photowatt are unable to agree upon a Test Plan within the
time period provided for in sub-section (a) above, the parties shall immediately
escalate the issue within their organizations and, failing agreement within five (5)
business days of when that escalation should have occurred, either party shall have the
right to terminate the applicable Project Agreement upon five (5) days’ notice. In the
event of such termination, Photowatt shall pay ATS for all work performed prior to the
termination, including costs and expenses already incurred and commitments made by ATS
plus reasonable amounts for overhead and profit on the foregoing.
	 
	 	(f)	 	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, FAT and/or SAT will be deemed
successfully completed in the event that Photowatt fails to conduct the tests within
the prescribed timeframe referred to above or in the event Photowatt does not provide
the production quality sample parts or other inputs required by the Test Plan within
such timeframes.





3.8 Delivery, Title, Risk of Loss and Security. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable
Project Agreement, delivery will be made to Photowatt Ex-Works at point of manufacture, skidded for
domestic truck shipment. Any export or other special packing or special transportation charges
shall be charged to and paid by Photowatt. Except as otherwise provided herein or in the Project
Agreement, ATS shall not be responsible for freight transportation, insurance, shipping, storage,
import duty, brokerage, handling, demurrage, or similar charges. If such charges are by the terms
of sale included in the Project Agreement price, any increase in rates becoming effective after the
date of Project Agreement shall be for the account of and responsibility of Photowatt. Risks of
loss or damage shall pass to Photowatt on delivery to the carrier at ATS’s facility; however, title
to the Product will not pass to Photowatt until payment has been received in full. Without
limiting and in addition to the aforementioned retention of title, Photowatt hereby grants to ATS a
first-priority purchase-money security interest in all goods, general intangibles and other
personal property sold or otherwise supplied by ATS to Photowatt under this Agreement and any
Project Agreement, including, without limitation, the Deliverables under each Project Agreement,
together with all accessions thereto, all replacements thereof and all proceeds therefrom, to
secure payment of all amounts owing by Photowatt to ATS under this Agreement and such Project
Agreements, including the unpaid portion of the purchase price of the goods, general intangibles
and other personal property sold or otherwise supplied by ATS to Photowatt under this Agreement and
any Project Agreement from time to time. ATS shall have authority to make all filings,
registrations and notifications necessary or desirable to protect, preserve and perfect its
security interest and the intended priority thereof. Photowatt agrees that in the event of default
by it of any provision of this Agreement, ATS will have all remedies available to it contemplated
at









 



- 9 -



law, including those contained in applicable personal property security legislation. This security
is granted in addition to and not in substitution for any other rights and remedies ATS may have
hereunder or otherwise.



3.9 Limited Warranty





	 	(a)	 	ATS warrants that each Product (other than equipment comprising prototypes or
proof of principle equipment) will be free from defects in workmanship and material and
shall materially conform to the Specifications for a period (the “Warranty Period”) of
twelve (12) months from the date of successful completion of SAT of the Product in
Photowatt’s plant or fifteen (15) months from the date of shipment from ATS’s
facilities, whichever occurs first.
	 
	 	(b)	 	During the term of the applicable Project Agreement, ATS warrants that it shall
perform all Project Services provided under the Project Agreement in a workmanlike
manner respecting industry standards and practices for similar services.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Upon prompt notification from Photowatt of any failure of a Product or any
Project Services to conform to these warranties during the applicable warranty period,
ATS will make repairs, adjustments, re-performance or replacements to the defective
part(s) or Project Services at ATS’s option. Where required by ATS, Photowatt agrees
to return a defective part to ATS at Photowatt’s expense. ATS will return corrected or
replacement parts to Photowatt CPT Photowatt’s plant. Photowatt acknowledges that this
sub-section sets forth Photowatt’s exclusive remedy, and ATS’s exclusive liability, for
any breach of these warranties or other duty related to the quality of the Products or
the Project Services.
	 
	 	(d)	 	ATS shall have no responsibility for, and does not warrant against, any
problems that occur as a result of improper use of any Product or failure to properly
install, maintain and operate it in accordance with ATS’s recommended procedures, or
alteration to it by any party other than ATS or those authorized by ATS to do so or any
modifications not made by ATS or problems that result from any accident, vandalism,
mischief or theft. Photowatt shall maintain accurate and complete records regarding
equipment operation and maintenance and service procedures performed on the Product.
	 
	 	(e)	 	ATS’s warranty excludes consumable items and wear parts, such as but not
limited to belts, bulbs, lamps, fuses, o-rings, filters, fiber guides, printer ribbons
or cartridges, lubricants, solvents or chemicals, which by their nature require
periodic replacement.
	 
	 	(f)	 	With respect to third party equipment integrated into the Product, warranties
for such items are limited to the warranty extended to ATS by the third party supplier.
ATS hereby assigns to Photowatt all warranties received from its










 



- 10 -


	 	 	 	suppliers to the extent ATS is able to and agrees to assist Photowatt in making any
claim pursuant to the said warranties.





ATS MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTY WHATSOEVER WITH RESPECT TO ANY PRODUCTS SUPPLIED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT,
WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ALL OF WHICH ARE DISCLAIMED BY ATS AND WAIVED BY PHOTOWATT.



3.10 Spare Parts





	 	(a)	 	Sixty (60) days prior to the shipment of any Product, ATS shall provide
Photowatt with a list of recommended parts (“Spare Parts”), subject to final
verification by ATS at the time of shipment of the Products, to be stocked by Photowatt
for maintenance of the Products set forth in the applicable Project Agreement, and all
subsequent change orders to such Project Agreements in accordance with this Agreement,
including prices (in effect at such time), lead-time, original equipment manufacturer
(OEM) and OEM part numbers for such parts.
	 
	 	(b)	 	ATS agrees that it will, for a period of five (5) years after the Warranty
Period, make available the necessary resources to service the Products and sell to
Photowatt all necessary Spare Parts, at prevailing price, delivery and payment terms,
required for maintenance and repair of the Products. The parties acknowledge that in
the event that Spare Parts consisting of or including components manufactured by a
third party supplier and not manufactured by ATS cease to be available from such third
party supplier, ATS shall be entitled to identify a suitable replacement or work-around
solution for such Spare Parts. After such five (5) year period has expired, Photowatt
may request that ATS continue to support the Products or supply Spare Parts and, if ATS
does not choose to continue to support such Products or supply such Spare Parts, ATS
agrees to provide Photowatt, upon receipt of a written request from Photowatt
therefore, with an opportunity for Photowatt to make final purchases of any Spare Parts
then in the possession of ATS and supply Photowatt with copies of all manufacturing
drawings of Spare Parts that are manufactured by ATS so that Photowatt can maintain the
Products, provided that Photowatt shall only be able to use such drawings to make or
have made Spare Parts for Products supplied by ATS and for no other purpose.





3.11 Patent Indemnity





	 	(a)	 	ATS agrees that it will, at its own expense, defend any suit instituted against
Photowatt and will indemnify Photowatt against any award of Losses and reasonable costs
made against Photowatt in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction, or any
amount in settlement or compromise thereof, provided that (i) the same is based upon a
claim that any Product infringes a










 



- 11 -








	 	 	 	valid patent under the laws of the United States or Canada; (ii) Photowatt gives ATS
prompt, detailed notice in writing of any such claims asserted; and (iii) Photowatt
permits ATS sole authority through its counsel to defend and/or settle the matter
and Photowatt cooperates and assists with such defense and/or settlement.
	 
	 	(b)	 	In case the Product is, or may become, the subject of any such proceeding, ATS
may, and in the event the Product is held in such suit to constitute an infringement
and its use is enjoined, ATS shall, at its expense and option, either procure for
Photowatt the right to continue to use the Product, or replace same with a
non-infringing product or part, or modify same so it becomes non-infringing, or remove
the Product and refund the purchase price of the infringing part of the Product (less
depreciation for its use on a straight line basis over a period of five (5) years from
the date of the applicable Project Agreement) and any transportation costs shall be
separately paid by Photowatt.
	 
	 	(c)	 	The indemnity obligations shall not apply to the extent a claim for
infringement of third party intellectual property rights relates to (i) any Product or
part which is manufactured to Photowatt’s design; (ii) any Product or part which is
modified by a party other than ATS (ii) any product of a third party as specified by
Photowatt incorporated in the Product; (iii) the use of any Product furnished to
Photowatt in combination with other products not furnished by ATS, unless the Product
furnished by ATS, alone and without combination, infringes the asserted rights; or (iv)
any infringement relating to Photowatt’s prescribed manufacturing processes. As to any
such excluded product or part thereof, ATS assumes no liability whatsoever for
intellectual property right infringement and Photowatt shall hold ATS harmless against
any infringement claim arising therefrom.
	 
	 	(d)	 	These express indemnity obligations shall be ATS’s sole obligation and
Photowatt’s sole remedy in respect to any third party claims of infringement of
intellectual property rights.





3.12 Limitations of Liability and Remedies





	 	(a)	 	Consequential Damages. In no event, whether as a result of breach of contract,
warranty, tort (including negligence) or otherwise, shall ATS or its suppliers or
subcontractors be liable for any special, indirect, consequential, incidental or
punitive damages including, but not limited to, loss of profit or revenues, loss of use
of any Product, any Foil Product or any associated equipment, damage to associated
equipment, cost of capital, cost of substitute products, facilities, services or
replacement equipment, down time costs or claims of Photowatt’s customers for such
damages. If Photowatt transfers title to or leases any Product to any third party,
Photowatt shall obtain from such third party a provision affording ATS and its
suppliers and subcontractors the protection of the preceding sentence.










 



- 12 -








	 	(b)	 	Aggregate Liability. In no event, whether as a result of breach of contract,
warranty, tort (including negligence) or otherwise, shall ATS’s liability to any
Photowatt Indemnified Party for any Losses arising out of, or resulting from the
Products or Project Services furnished hereunder, exceed the amount actually received
by ATS for the specific Product or Project Service which gives rise to the claim.
	 
	 	(c)	 	The remedies provided either party in this Agreement are such party’s sole and
exclusive remedies.





ARTICLE 4

applicable taxes, payable in advance in monthly instalments on the first day of each calendar month
during the term of this Article 4 without deduction, abatement or set-off. ATS will allow
Photowatt, its Affiliates and its and their respective employees access to ATS’s premises during
normal business hours on reasonable notice in order to be able to use and operate the Systems 1
Press for research and development purposes.



4.2 Foil Products. The parties acknowledge that Photowatt may require ATS to supply it with
aluminium foil processed by the AMD Press in order to manufacture spheral solar products. At such
time as Photowatt is ready to begin to issue firm purchase orders for such products, Photowatt
shall notify ATS. ATS agrees to supply to Photowatt such quantities of aluminium foil processed by
the AMD Press (“Foil Products”) as Photowatt may order from time to time on and subject to the
terms of this agreement and pursuant to firm purchase orders which have been accepted by ATS. The
price payable by Photowatt for Foil Products shall be equal to ATS’s Cost thereof plus 12%. Firm
purchase orders shall be on ATS’s standard form, as amended from time to time. ATS’s supply
obligations under this Section are subject to available labour, supplies, and AMD Press capacity
(any requirement to operate the AMD Press for more than eight hours per day being subject to the
mutual agreement of the parties). Photowatt shall provide ATS with a rolling forecast of aluminium
foil requirements, to be provided on the first day of each month covering the following three
months.



4.3 No Warranty. Recognizing that Photowatt owns the Foil Presses and is responsible for their
maintenance, the Foil Products supplied by ATS to Photowatt hereunder are sold on an “as is” basis
and ATS makes no warranty whatsoever, express or implied, with respect to the Foil Products,
including any warranty of quality, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or conformity
with specifications all of which are disclaimed by ATS and waived by Photowatt.

4.4 Terms and Conditions of Sale. Delivery of Foil Products will be made to Photowatt Ex-Works at
point of manufacture, skidded for domestic truck shipment. Any export or other special packing or
special transportation charges shall be charged to and paid by Photowatt. ATS shall not be
responsible for freight transportation, insurance, shipping, storage, import duty, brokerage,
handling, demurrage, or similar charges. Risks of loss or damage shall pass to Photowatt on
delivery to the carrier at ATS’s facility; however, title to Foil Products will not pass to
Photowatt until payment has been received in full. ATS shall not be required to ship Foil Product
during any period where past due amounts are owing under this Agreement.



4.5 Maintenance and Repair. Photowatt shall be responsible to maintain the Foil Presses in good
operating condition at its sole cost and expense and ATS shall provide Photowatt with access to its
premises during normal business hours on reasonable notice for such purpose. Photowatt assumes the
entire risk of loss, theft, destruction or damage to the Foil Presses.



4.6 Invoicing and Settlement of Costs.




	 	(a)	 	ATS shall invoice Photowatt upon shipment of Foil Products, the fees payable by
Photowatt for Foil Products ordered by Photowatt under this Article 4.
	 
	 	(b)	 	Photowatt shall pay to ATS, on or before the 10th day after the date on which
an invoice for Foil Products is delivered to the Photowatt in accordance herewith (or
the next Business Day, if such 10th day is not a Business Day) (each, a “Payment
Date”), by wire transfer of immediately available funds payable to the order of ATS,
all amounts invoiced by ATS pursuant to Section 4.6. Photowatt shall pay
interest at the prime rate as quoted from time to time of The Bank of Nova Scotia plus
2% on any amounts invoiced by ATS which are not paid when due. In the event Photowatt
fails to pay amounts owing under this Article 4 on two or more occasions, ATS
reserves the right to require all future deliveries of Foil Products to be paid C.O.D.
	 
	 	(c)	 	The prices quoted by ATS are exclusive of all applicable federal,
state/provincial or local taxes, unless otherwise stated. Photowatt shall pay the
gross amount of any present or future sales, use, excise, value added, or other similar
tax applicable to the price, sale or delivery of any Product, Foil Product, Project
Service or Deliverable furnished hereunder or to their use by Photowatt. Photowatt
shall furnish ATS with evidence of exemption from any such taxes acceptable to the
taxing authorities. Photowatt shall assess and remit any applicable tax to taxing
authorities not otherwise invoiced by ATS. If any tax in the nature of withholding tax
is payable on any sums invoiced under this Agreement, Photowatt shall pay ATS such
amount as is necessary to ensure that the net amount received by ATS after such
withholding shall be equal to the amount invoiced or otherwise required to be paid
herein.

8.8 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement shall be determined by a court,
administrative agency or arbitrator in any jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not render the entire Agreement invalid and
shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such term or other provision in any

of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions
contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law.



8.9 Force Majeure. No party shall be deemed in default of this Agreement to the extent that any
delay or failure in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement results from any cause
beyond its reasonable control, such as acts of God, decrees or restraints of any Governmental
Authority, acts of civil or military authority, embargoes, epidemics, war, riots, insurrections,
fires, explosions, earthquakes, floods, unusually severe weather conditions, strikes or other
labour disturbances or unavailability of parts, or, in the case of computer

whether similar or dissimilar to those already specified, which cannot be controlled by such party.
In the event of any such excused delay, the time for performance shall be extended for a period
equal to the time lost by reason of the delay; provided however that the party seeking to excuse
its performance shall promptly notify the other party of the cause therefor, such performance shall
be so excused during the inability of the party to perform so caused, but for no longer period, and
the cause thereof shall be remedied as far as is commercially reasonable with all reasonable
dispatch.

be thereby aggrieved shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable
relief of its rights under this Agreement, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at
law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative. The parties agree that the
remedies at law for any breach or threatened breach, including monetary damages, are inadequate

at law would be adequate is waived. Any requirements for security or posting of any bond with such
remedy are waived.

accordance with Section 8.17(a), the mediator will be selected by mutual
agreement of the parties, which agreement shall be reached in good faith and on a
timely basis. If they are unable to agree on a mediator, each party will select one
third party representative, each of whom shall be an independent experienced
professional mediator practicing in Ontario, which two representatives shall mutually

to assist the parties in reaching a mutually acceptable
settlement. The mediator may suggest ways of resolving the
Dispute, but may not impose his or her own judgment on the
issues or that of the parties. The mediator will not have the
authority to decide any issue for the parties, but will
attempt to

	 	 	 	facilitate the voluntary resolution of the Dispute by the
parties.
	 
	 	(B)	 	Each Person participating in
the mediation will have authority to settle, and all Persons

entire mediation session or sessions.
	 
	 	(C)	 	The mediation will take place
at a time and convenient location agreeable to the mediator

	 	(E)	 	There will be no stenographic
record of the mediation process, and no Person will tape
record any portion of the mediation sessions.
	 
	 	(F)	 	No subpoenas, summons,

settlement.






	 	(I)	 	The above rules may be
modified or amended with the parties’ written consent.






	 	(ii)	 	Release. The mediator will not be a
necessary or proper party in any Action relating to the mediation.
Neither the mediator, the Person employing the mediator, nor the Person
providing the mediator will be liable to any party for any acts or
omissions in connection with any mediation conducted pursuant to this
Section 8.17.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	Compromise Negotiation. The mediation
is a compromise negotiation for purposes of the applicable rules of
evidence and is an alternative dispute resolution procedure subject to
Law chosen to govern this Agreement. The entire procedure is and will
be confidential. All conduct, statements, promises, offers, views and
opinions, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation
by any of the parties, their agents, employees or other representatives
and by the mediator, who is the parties’ joint agent for purposes of
these compromise negotiations, are confidential and will, in addition
where appropriate, be deemed to be work product and privileged. Such
conduct, statements, promises, offers, views and opinions will not be
discoverable or admissible for any purposes, including impeachment, if
any litigation or other proceedings involve the parties and will not be
disclosed to anyone not an agent, employee, expert or other
representative for any of the parties. Evidence otherwise discoverable
or admissible is not excluded from discovery or admission as a result
of its use in the mediation. Confidential Information disclosed to the
mediator by the parties or by witnesses in the course of the mediation
will not be divulged by the mediator. All records, reports or other
documents received by the mediator while serving in that capacity will
be confidential. The mediator will not be compelled to divulge such
records or to testify with regard to the mediation in any adversary
proceeding or judicial forum.

any experts employed at the mediator’s request.
	 
	 	(v)	 	Termination of Mediation. The mediation
will be terminated upon the first to occur of the following:

	 	(A)	 	by the execution of a
settlement agreement resolving the dispute by the parties;
	 
	 	(B)	 	by a written declaration of
the mediator to the effect that further efforts at mediation

	 	(C)	 	after the completion of two
full days of mediation sessions, by written declaration of a
party or parties to the effect that mediation proceedings are
terminated.






	 	(c)	 	Litigation. Neither party may bring (or have brought) any Action in
any forum with respect to any Dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement, or
the breach or termination thereof, until such party has fully complied with Section
8.17(a) and (b) with respect to such Dispute.





8.18 Binding Effect and Assignment. This Agreement binds and benefits the parties and their
respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties
(and, solely for purposes of Section 3.11 and Section 4.8, the Persons indemnified
thereby) and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, confers or intends to confer any rights
or remedies of any nature whatsoever in favour of any Person (including any employee or shareholder
of ATS or Photowatt) other than the parties.



8.19 Survival Beyond Completion. The rights and obligations of each party with respect to sections
entitled, “Patent Indemnity”, “Confidentiality”, “Proprietary Rights”, “Limitations of Liabilities
and Remedies”, shall survive termination of the Agreement or acceptance of the Deliverables in

its own fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the matters contemplated by this
Agreement.



8.21 Waiver. A provision of this Agreement may be waived only by a writing signed by the party or
parties intended to be bound by the waiver. A party is not prevented from enforcing any right,
remedy or condition in the party’s favour because of any failure or delay in exercising any right
or remedy or in requiring satisfaction of any condition, except to the extent that the party
specifically waives the same in writing. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall
constitute a waiver of any other provision nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver
unless otherwise expressly provided. Any enumeration of a party’s rights and remedies in this
Agreement is not intended to be exclusive, and a party’s rights and remedies are intended to be
cumulative to the extent permitted by Law and include any rights and remedies authorized in Law or
in equity.



8.22 Compliance With Laws. Each party shall comply with all applicable legal requirements
(including all relevant federal, state and provincial legislation and regulatory requirements); and
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party shall comply with, and shall take all

result in non-compliance by the other party, with the provisions of the Personal Information
Protection and Electronic Documents Act (Canada) and any similar federal, state or provincial
legislation, including the provisions relating to the collection, use, retention and disclosure of
Personal Information and (ii) the transfer of any information hereunder is in compliance with
applicable export control or similar Laws.



8.23 No Agency. Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute or be deemed to constitute a
partnership or joint venture between the parties or constitute or be deemed to constitute any party
the agent or employee of the other party for any purpose whatsoever, and neither party shall have
authority or power to bind the other party or to contract in the name of, or create a liability
against, the other party in any way or for any purpose.



IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized
representatives.
