directed to utilize by Buyer from the prices in effect as of August 19, 2004. In

equal to one hundred percent (100%) of any subsequent net cost savings achieved
by Seller with respect to such Product until aggregate price reductions on
account of Seller's cost savings equal any price increases previously agreed to
by Buyer. If there are engineering changes in respect of any of the Products the
prices of such Products will be based upon cost variances off current business
with agreement of divisional buyer, whether the part number stays the same or
changes.
