SCOPE OF THE AGREEMENT; TERRITORY


 


2.1 Purpose of
Agreement. The purpose of this Agreement is to define the terms and conditions that
apply between the Parties with respect to (a) Seller’s manufacture and sale to Buyer, and Buyer’s purchase from Seller,
of the Base Vehicles and (b) Buyer’s modification of the Base Vehicles to create the Final Vehicles for Buyer’s
distribution and sale of such Final Vehicles (the “Project”).


 


2.2 Contract Documents.
The contractual relationship between Buyer and Seller with respect to the Project shall be governed by the Contract Documents which are,
by this reference, incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Contract
Documents may not be modified, superseded, or altered except by written agreement signed by an authorized representative of Buyer and
Seller, notwithstanding any terms which may now or in the future appear on any quotations, bids, proposals, sales orders, purchase orders,
releases, acknowledgments, invoices, or other forms issued by Seller or Buyer, whether printed, by telecopy, or by electronic data interchange,
all of which terms are hereby rejected and shall not be part of this Agreement or the Contract Documents. THE TERMS OF ANY QUOTATION,
ORDER, ACKNOWLEDGMENT, BID, PROPOSAL, INVOICE, OR OTHER FORM ISSUED BY BUYER OR SELLER, WHETHER PRINTED, BY TELECOPY, OR BY ELECTRONIC
DATA INTERCHANGE ARE HEREBY REJECTED AND SHALL NOT BE PART OF THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS UNLESS SPECIFICALLY AGREED TO IN A WRITING SIGNED
BY BOTH PARTIES.


 


2.3 Order of Precedence.
In case of inconsistencies or conflicts, the Contract Documents shall prevail over each other in the priority in which the Contract Documents
are listed in the definition of Contract Documents set forth in Article 1.


 


2.4 No Dealership
Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Contract Documents (including this Agreement) or the ultimate
disposition, sale, license, lease, or distribution of the Final Vehicles by Buyer, its agents, subcontractors, or distributors, the
Parties agree that neither the Contract Documents nor this Agreement is intended to be, and will not be construed as, franchise,
dealership, or other similar type of automotive retailer agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties agree that is it
their express intent that this Agreement not be enforced in accordance with any Applicable Laws related to automotive franchises,
dealerships, or retailers with respect to the goods and services manufactured, sold, repaired, or otherwise maintained under this
Agreement (collectively, “Dealership Laws”). If, notwithstanding the intent of the Parties, this Agreement is
subject to Dealership Laws, the Parties expressly waive, to the fully extent permitted by Applicable Law, each and every provision
of such Dealership Laws that are different or additional to the terms and provisions of the Contract Documents. If any Dealership
Laws cannot be waived by a Party, such Party agrees it is such Party’s intent that any provision of the Dealership Laws that
are different or additional to the terms and conditions of the Contract Documents be interpreted as close as possible to the
applicable provisions of the Contract Documents.


 






    9


     


    

 


2.5 Authorized Territories
and New Territories. As of the Effective Date, the Parties agree that the Base Vehicles, and
the Final Vehicles created from such Base Vehicles, are intended to be sold in the Authorized Territories only. However, Buyer may, from
time to time during the Term, request that Seller review and confirm whether the Specifications meet the requirements and standards of
Governmental Authorities for validation or certification for sales of Base Vehicles (the “Validation Standards”) in
a jurisdiction which is not an Authorized Territory (a “New Territory”). In the event that it is determined that any
homologation work or modifications to the Specifications are required to cause the Base Vehicles to be compliant with applicable Validation
Standards in the New Territory, Seller and Buyer will negotiate whether to implement such Changes in good faith, taking into account
Seller’s available engineering and other resources, assembly and manufacturing capability and capacity, the Supply Agreements,
and the costs associated with such Changes. In the event that the Parties agree to make such Changes, such Changes will be governed by
and made in accordance with Article 9. In the event (a) (i) the Parties mutually agree that existing Specifications are compliant with
the Validation Standards in the New Territory and no homologation work is required, or (ii) the Parties agree, after the requisite engineering
changes and/or modifications to Specifications have been effected pursuant to Article 9, that Final Vehicles meet the applicable Validation
Standards in the New Territory, and (b) the Parties agree in writing to the inclusion of such New Territory as an Authorized Territory,
such New Territory shall be treated as an Authorized Territory for purposes of this Agreement. Any costs or expenses associated with
a New Territory may result in an equitable adjustment to the Vehicle Price for the Base Vehicles to be assembled for the New Territory.
Notwithstanding any New Territories added to this Agreement, all purchases and sales of the Base Vehicles under this Agreement will occur
within the United States.

normal operations.


 


7.2 Shipment and Delivery
Documentation. Seller shall prepare the Base Vehicles for shipment in accordance with this Agreement,
Buyer’s reasonable written instructions, the Applicable Laws for transportation of vehicles, industry standards, and best practice.

Location following Delivery. Any Non-Conformities discovered by Buyer pursuant to such inspections will be addressed in accordance with
Section 7.8. Any inspection by Buyer or its designee of any Base Vehicle shall not constitute acceptance. Neither inspection nor acceptance
hereunder will constitute a waiver of any of Buyer’s rights or remedies for Non-Conformities with respect to such Base Vehicle.


 


7.8 Non-Conformity. 


 


(a) At
time of Delivery. If a Non-Conformity is discovered by Buyer or Seller (or either of their designees) at the time of Delivery, [***].
Once repaired or corrected, previously rejected Base Vehicles shall then be resubmitted for inspection in accordance with Section 7.7.


 


(b) Prior
to End User Sale. If a Non-Conformity is discovered after Delivery but before an Authorized Dealer delivers a Final Vehicle to an
end user, [***]. In cases where the Parties choose to have Buyer or its designees repair that portion of the Final Vehicle that constitutes
the Base Vehicles, Seller shall provide descriptions of the Non-Conformity correction procedures, Base Vehicle information and needed
Service Parts for Buyer to conduct such repair to the Base Vehicles, before the Base Vehicles are delivered to the end-users. Buyer will
develop its own processes to conduct the correction procedure, collect all reasonable costs and expenses incurred and charge Seller. Also,
the Parties agree that for certain kinds of repairs, Seller may send to Buyer at Seller’s cost, qualified Seller personnel to assist
in the performance of such repairs, upon agreement between the Parties.

23.14 Waiver.
The failure of either Party at any time to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement or any right with respect thereto, or to exercise
any option provided in this Agreement, shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provisions, rights, or options or in any way
affect the validity of this Agreement. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any
other provision, whether or not similar, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver. No waiver shall be binding unless executed
in writing by the Party making the waiver.


 


23.15 Interpretation.
For purposes of this Agreement: (a) the words “include”, “includes”, and “including” are deemed to
be followed by the words “without limitation”; (b) the word “or” is not exclusive; (c) the words “herein,”
“hereof,” “hereby,” “hereto” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole; (d)
words denoting the singular have a comparable meaning when used in the plural, and vice versa; (e) words denoting any gender include
all genders; and (f) the words “shall” and “will” are intended to have the same meaning and when used in connection

23.16 Severability.
In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall for any reason be held to be invalid and/or unenforceable,
such invalidity/unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement. This Agreement shall then be construed as if
such invalid/unenforceable provision(s) had never been contained herein and such invalid/unenforceable provision(s) shall be replaced
with valid and enforceable provision(s), the commercial effect of which shall be as similar as possible to the invalid/unenforceable
provision(s).

expressly incorporated into this Agreement and all recitals in this Agreement (which recitals are incorporated as covenants of the Parties),
constitute the entire understanding of the Parties in connection with the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement supersedes
and constitutes a merger of all prior and contemporaneous proposals, negotiations, representations, understandings, commitments, and
agreements, whether oral or written, with regard to the subject matter and provisions of this Agreement.
