COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS FOR NON-MANAGEMENT DIRECTORS

 Exhibit 10.68 
 Compensation Arrangements For Non-Management Directors 
 Annual Retainer and Meeting Fees

 Each of our non-management directors receives an annual retainer of $70,000. Annual retainers are paid in quarterly installments. In addition,
each of our non-management directors received $1,500 for each Board and Board Committee meeting attended. The Chairs of the Committee on Governance and the Financial Policy Committee each receive an annual retainer of $7,500 for serving as the
Committee Chair, the Chair of the Compensation Committee receives an annual retainer of $10,000 and the Chair of the Audit Review Committee receives an annual retainer of $15,000. 
 Outside Director Deferral Plan 
 Non-management Directors may elect to defer annual retainer and meeting
fees under the Outside Director Deferral Plan. The Outside Director Deferral Plan permits non-management Directors to elect to defer a portion or all of the annual retainer and meeting fees into either a phantom share account or a cash account.
Amounts deferred into the phantom share account accrue dividend equivalents, and amounts deferred into the cash account accrue interest at the prime rate. The plan provides that amounts deferred into the phantom share account are paid out in shares
of Company Common Stock, and amounts deferred into the cash account are paid out in cash, in each case following termination of service as a Director in either a single lump sum, five annual installments or ten annual installments. 

Outside Director Phantom Share Plan 
 Each
non-management Director receives an annual grant of phantom shares under the Outside Director Phantom Share Plan equal in value to $110,000. Dividend equivalents accrue on all phantom shares credited to a Director’s account. All phantom shares
are fully vested on the date of grant. Following termination of service as a Director, the cash value of the vested number of phantom shares will be paid to each Director in either a single lump sum, five annual installments or ten annual
installments. The value of each phantom share is determined on the relevant date by the fair market value of Company Common Stock (as defined in the plan). 

 Directors’ Retirement Income Plan 
 One of the Company’s non-management Directors (Mr. Rankin) participates in the Directors’ Retirement Income Plan, which was terminated in 1995. The plan provided that, upon retirement from the Board of
Directors after reaching the age of 55 with at least ten years of service as a Director, any non-management Director would be entitled to receive an annual amount equal to the annual retainer in effect at retirement. A retiring Director who had
reached age 55 and served for at least five but less than ten years would be entitled to a reduced amount equal to 50% of the annual retainer in effect at retirement, plus 10% of such annual retainer for each additional year of service (rounded to
the nearest whole year) up to ten. Under the transition provisions of the plan, upon his retirement Mr. Rankin will be entitled to receive an annual amount under the plan equal to 70% of the annual retainer in effect at retirement. 

Other 
 Non-management Directors are reimbursed for
actual expenses incurred in the performance of their services as Directors, including continuing education programs and seminars and, in most instances, provided with travel via Company-provided private aircraft to Board of Directors and committee
meetings. The Company also provides each non-management Director with $250,000 in business travel accident insurance coverage.AMENDMENT NUMBER 1 TO THE DIRECTORS RETIREMENT INCOME PLAN

ENPHASE, its employees and agents harmless against all claims, actions and suits for all reasonable and verifiable losses, costs, expenses, damages (including reasonable and verifiable costs and expenses incurred by ENPHASE subcontractors and
customers of ENPHASE, to the extent that ENPHASE is responsible for such amounts), claims, demands and/or liabilities (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees) that result from any actual or alleged (i) infringement or
misappropriation of any patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary right by the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCT. For the sake of clarification any costs, expenses and damages that are assessed by a court of law shall be deemed reasonable.
For the sake of clarification Phoenix Contact shall have sole authority to retain counsel and defend against such claim, except in the event that ENPHASE subcontractors or customers require legal representation and Phoenix Contact does not agree to
counsel and defend such parties. If the use of such CONTRACTUAL PRODUCT is (or in Phoenix Contact’s opinion, is reasonably likely to be) enjoined or otherwise encumbered by such claim, then Phoenix Contact shall at its own discretion either:
(a) procure for ENPHASE the right to use such CONTRACTUAL PRODUCT; which allows ENPHASE the right to sell the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS to its customers, or, (b) modify such CONTRACTUAL PRODUCT in a manner mutually agreed between the
CONTRACTUAL PARTIES so as to avoid any claim of infringement; or, if neither of the foregoing options (a) or (b) is available after using best efforts, then (c) replace such CONTRACTUAL PRODUCT with an equally suitable replacement
that is acceptable to ENPHASE and that is free of any infringement. If none of the foregoing options (a), (b) or (c) is available after using best efforts, then Phoenix Contact shall refund to ENPHASE all amounts paid by ENPHASE for such
CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS. The foregoing remedies are nonexclusive. 
 Phoenix Contact will have no obligation to indemnify ENPHASE,
its employees and agents for claims under Sections 11 or 13 to the extent such claims arise due to: (i) ENPHASE’s combination of CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS or Services with other products; or (ii) the application of the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCT
itself, or (iii) ENPHASE’s unauthorized modification of the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS; or (iv) ENPHASE’s usage of the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCT in other than the mutually intended use.

	3	Application 

  

	3.1	Overview 

 The AC
wiring system is used to connect PCUs or ACMs to branch circuit wiring. This 3rd generation wiring system works on a ‘trunk and drop’ system. This system contrasts with the previous ‘in-line’ cabling in that the AC flow for a branch no longer flows through each
PCU, but instead is connected via a separate inverter cable which is then ‘tee’d’ to the branch. 
  

 
 Figure 1 - Enphase Energy System 

  

					
		 	Page 9 of 31	 	

 

 
  

 In addition to Neutral and Ground, trunks carry one, two or three phases depending upon the application.
Trunk sections will be built using a long ‘reel’ of trunk cabling – this will be a cable with drop connectors installed at regular intervals. This will allow an installer to simply cut a length of trunking cable to the appropriate
length for the installation. 
 The trunk is ultimately connected to a junction box at the upstream side by cutting back the exterior insulator,
stripping the wires bare for field termination, and running them through a strain relief and into a junction box for termination. 
 The last
element to the AC wiring system is the cable terminator, which provides a means to safely, reliably and easily terminate a cut length of trunk cable in the outdoor environment.

 Annex 4 
 Quality Assurance Agreement 
 I. Scope of Agreement 

 

	1.	This Agreement shall apply exclusively to the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS outlined in the Cooperation Agreement (Annex 6), which are delivered by Phoenix Contact on the basis
of the orders Phoenix Contact receives and accepts from ENPHASE during the term of this Agreement. 

  

	2.	The products shall be in compliance with the mutually agreed descriptions (specifications, Supplier data sheets, drawings). 

II. Quality Assurance and Environmental Management 
  

	1.	Phoenix Contact shall maintain a quality management system which meets ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. Phoenix Contact shall also manufacture and test the products in
accordance with the stipulations of such quality management system. 

  

	2.	If Phoenix Contact receives production or test equipment, software, services, materials or other supplies from third parties for the manufacture or quality assurance of
its products, Phoenix Contact shall ensure that these are in compliance with its quality management system, whether it be by contract with these parties or through carrying out itself such tests as are necessary to assure compliance with its quality
management system. 

  

	3.	Phoenix Contact shall keep records of aforementioned quality assurance procedures and especially those relating to measured values and test results. Phoenix Contact
shall maintain these records in an appropriate manner and for a period of not less than three (3) years. Phoenix Contact shall allow ENPHASE, upon request, to inspect the records and product samples for the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS.

  

	4.	Phoenix Contact shall mark all CONTRACTUAL PRODUCT with a date code label and version number. Additionally, Phoenix Contact shall mark each plastic component with the
date code of manufacture. 

  

	5.	The CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS shall exhibit a FIT’s rate not to exceed that which is calculated in accordance with SR-332 or equivalent industry standard. Phoenix
Contact shall perform a reliability analysis and submit calculated results to ENPHASE within 60 days of design completion. 

  

	6.	Product DPPM shall not exceed the following agreed-upon targets during all phases of the product lifecycle including inspection, installation, deployment and operation.
The quality targets are listed in Annex A. 

  

	7.	Materials, Processes, and Design shall be selected to support the service life of at least [***], and Phoenix Contact acknowledges that it must be able to
demonstrate empirical data that validates this requirement, upon request. This requirement is met by performing a product-specific quality inspection and test plan agreed upon with ENPHASE. 

 
 [***] = CERTAIN INFORMATION ON THIS PAGE HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED
SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO THE OMITTED PORTIONS. 

 Annex 4 
 III. Phoenix Contact’s Obligation to Provide Proof and Information to ENPHASE 
  

	1.	Phoenix Contact shall, upon reasonable request, allow ENPHASE to inspect and verify its compliance with the quality assurance measures set forth in Section II above.
Phoenix Contact shall therefore, after prior agreement of the Parties on the date of such an inspection, grant ENPHASE reasonable access to its business premises of the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS and shall make available a member of its staff for the
duration of the inspection visit. Phoenix Contact may deny access to and inspection of classified manufacturing methods and other industrial secrets. 

  

	2.	Phoenix Contact shall make no changes to the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS, Specifications, manufacturing process, or testing procedures or criteria used in manufacturing of the
CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS, if such changes would affect, or would likely affect, the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCT’S form, fit, or function, unless ENPHASE has provided its prior written approval of such change, with such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. 

  

	3.	Should Phoenix Contact note an increase in deviations in the real quality of CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS already delivered or in the process of being delivered from the
mutually agreed specifications (i.e. a reduction in quality), Phoenix Contact shall immediately notify ENPHASE thereof and of the measures Phoenix Contact plans to take to remedy such a problem. 

 

	4.	Phoenix Contact shall ensure, whether by identification of the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS, or, if such is impossible or impractical, by other suitable means, that, in case
defects are detected in a CONTRACTUAL PRODUCT, Phoenix Contact can readily determine whether any other CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS have been affected and identify them. Phoenix Contact shall inform ENPHASE about its identification system or other measures
which it has taken in order to enable the latter to carry out its own investigations, if necessary. In doing so, the traceability can only be ensured if ENPHASE provides the corresponding information as regards the material number, order, delivery
slip number and/or the corresponding batch and/or serial number. ENPHASE is obliged to provide these data. If these details cannot be provided Phoenix Contact shall be released from its duty for traceability. 

IV. Receiving Inspection by ENPHASE 
  

	1.	Upon delivery of the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS, ENPHASE or its representative shall promptly confirm that they accurately correspond to the purchase order quantity and type
and whether there is any apparent damage resulting from their transport or any other visible defect. 

  

	2.	If, during such inspection, ENPHASE or its representative notes any apparent damage or defect or any non-conformity with the ordered quantity and type, it shall
promptly notify Phoenix Contact thereof. If ENPHASE or Buyer’s representative notes some damage or defect at a later date, it shall also promptly report this to Phoenix Contact. Upon receiving notice of such damage, defect or non-conformity,
Phoenix Contact shall promptly remedy such. 

 Annex 4 
  

	3.	No failure by ENPHASE to detect any defect or damage to the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS and notify Phoenix Contact as described in this Section IV shall serve to release
Phoenix Contact from its warranty obligations as set forth in this Agreement. 

 V. Quality Assurance Representative

 Each of the CONTRACTUAL PARTIES hereby designates its quality assurance representative below, who shall represent it on
quality assurance matters related to this Agreement. This representative shall make any decisions relating to such quality assurance issues. Should either of the CONTRACTUAL PARTIES replace its quality assurance representative, it shall promptly
notify the other CONTRACTUAL PARTY of such replacement in writing. The quality assurance representatives are listed in Annex A.

 NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT 
 Between 
 Enphase Energy 

201 1st Street 

Petaluma, CA 94952 
 United States of America 
 - hereinafter referred to as
“Enphase ”- 
 and 

Phoenix Contact GmbH & Co. KG 
 Flachsmarktstraße 8 
 32825 Blomberg 

Germany 

Phoenix Contact Holdings, Inc. 
 586 Fulling Mill Road 
 Middletown, PA 17057 

HARRISBURG, PA. 17111-0100 
 United States of America 
 - both hereinafter referred to as
“Phoenix Contact”- 
 - hereinafter singly or jointly referred to as “Contractual Partners” -

 the following Agreement is concluded: 
 Preamble 
 The Phoenix Contact Group develops, produces and sells innovative products and
systems of electrical connection and automation technology worldwide. 
 The company has long-term and comprehensive process know-how for
in-house development and manufacturing. 
 In connection with talks on the project “Enphase AC wiring system ERD”
(“Purpose”), the contractual partners shall provide each other with information. 
 Within this Purpose it is necessary that Phoenix
Contact and/or an affiliated company as well as/or subsidiaries of Phoenix Contact and Enphase pass on information to the other contractual partner. To guarantee an open cooperation within this Purpose the following shall be agreed as regards the
imparted information: 
 1. Confidential are all information, documents, data and/or knowledge, especially technical and/or economic
information, construction documents, specifications, drawings, samples, prototypes, test results and/or any other know how (hereinafter “Confidential Information”) that is made available by one contractual partner to the other
contractual partner within the aforementioned Purpose and that refer to former, present or future activities of the contractual partner or any affiliated company in the area of research, development, production methods, procedures, technologies,
products, company management and trade for this purpose. Confidential Information can be conveyed or provided for inspection verbally or in writing; as sample, prototype, electronic or visual data formats of any kind or in any other
embodiment. Confidential Information comprise also all copies, all material generated by themselves and summaries made hereof. 
 The
disclosing contractual partner is not obligated to confidentiality as regards his own Confidential Information imparted to the receiving contractual partner. The Confidential Information is confidential solely for the receiving
contractual partner, in fact only as regards the Confidential Information imparted by the disclosing contractual partner. This Confidential Information may be passed on without restrictions to third parties by the disclosing
contractual partner. 
 2. Confidential Information is and remains property of the disclosing contractual partner. 

 3. The contractual partners have to properly keep all Confidential Information passed on by the other
contractual partner and shall not disclose it to any third partner. Confidential Information, however, may be passed on to third parties if the fulfilment of contractual obligations by one contractual partner makes this imperative. Before
Confidential Information is distributed by the receiving contractual partner the written consent to the distribution has to be obtained from the disclosing contractual partner. With such a necessary disclosure to third parties, this third party is
committed to secrecy to the same extent as the contractual partners under this Agreement. The information may not be used for any other objective than for achieving the Purpose of the cooperation. Third parties in terms of this Agreement are not the
affiliated companies and subsidiaries of Phoenix Contact pursuant to the preamble. A distribution of Confidential Information through Phoenix Contact to these companies is permitted. 
 4. The contractual partners undertake to return all received Confidential Information on request of the respective disclosing contractual partner, or to destroy it on written request after
the termination of this Agreement. The same also applies to Confidential Information stored, processed electronically or visually, copied or duplicated. The above mentioned regulations only apply to routinely compiled backup copies of
Confidential Information, which was exchanged electronically, as well as Confidential Information or copies thereof, which have to be retained and/or stored by the receiving contractual partner or their advisors in compliance with the
terms of applicable law or internationally accepted accounting guidelines, insofar that this Confidential Information has to be returned or destroyed on written request of the disclosing contractual partner at the end of the respective
compulsory retention period. 
 5. Confidential Information is not information that 

 

	a.	at the time of it’s transmission was already common knowledge; 

  

	b.	at the time of it’s transmission was already known to the other contractual partner; 

 

	c.	became common knowledge after it’s transmission without the assistance of the other contractual partner; 

 

	d.	was made accessible by third parties to the other contractual partner legally and without any restriction regarding non-disclosure or usage after it’s
transmission; 

  

	e.	may be disclosed upon written approval of the other contractual partner; 

  

	f.	have been developed by the receiving contractual partner independently and without recourse to Confidential Information or in accordance with the exceptions stipulated
under paragraph 5 a – e. 

 The contractual partner who refers to the exception has to prove the existence of its
prerequisites. 
 The contractual partners may disclose Confidential Information from the other contractual partner as far as the
receiving contractual partner is obligated to do so due to an official or judicial directive or any mandatory legal regulations provided the contractual partner obliged to the disclosure immediately informs the other contractual partner about it
beforehand for the purpose of exercising his rights, and the contractual partner committed to the disclosure makes any reasonable effort to ensure that the Confidential Information is dealt with confidentially. Confidential Information
disclosed in such a way has to be marked as “confidential” by the contractual partner obliged to the disclosure. 
 6. Licences
and/or rights for using and/or transferring any patents, rights of use, brands, samples, intellectual property or any other property rights shall not be granted neither expressly nor implied by this Agreement. The receiving contractual partner shall
especially not be entitled to file an application for patents or other property rights with and/or on the basis of Confidential Information he obtained. In the event the receiving party was granted patents or other property rights contrary to
the aforesaid these must be transferred to the issuing contractual partner free of charge upon the initial request. Furthermore, the assignment of Confidential Information does not constitute any rights for prior use for the receiving
contractual partner. 
 7. The contractual partners shall make sure that the confidential material is only made available to those
employees who are indispensable for fulfilling the Purpose. The appointed employees are also committed to a corresponding equivalent secrecy obligation unless there has already been a basic obligation to secrecy within the employment contract.

 8. A warranty or liability as regards accuracy, freedom from errors, absence of property rights of third parties, completeness and/or
usability of the Confidential Information shall be excluded as far as legally permitted. 
 9. This Agreement becomes effective
upon signature by both contractual partners and ends after one year without needing notice of termination. This Agreement will be prolonged by another year if the contractual partners have not concluded their cooperation at the end of the respective
one-year term in accordance with the preamble. The provisions of this Agreement shall remain effective even after the termination of this Agreement for a period of 5 years. A cancellation of this Agreement is not possible. 

10. If a contractual partner gets insight into production processes or any other company secrets of the other contractual partner that should not
be disclosed and which were made known to him within audits or through business relations, the non-disclosure agreement shall be valid for audit results, documents and other company findings unlimited in time beyond the term of this Agreement.

 11. No ancillary verbal agreements have been made. Any amendments and/or supplements to this
Agreement must be made in writing to become legally effective. This formal requirement can only be waived in mutual agreement and in writing. None of the contractual partners can transfer this Agreement or individual rights or duties under this
Agreement to third parties without the written consent of the other contractual partner, unless otherwise agreed between the contractual partners in this Agreement. 
 12. All disputes arising in connection with this Agreement or its validity shall be finally settled in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the German Institute for Arbitration e.V. (DIS)
without recourse to the ordinary courts of the law. The Arbitration Tribunal may also decide on the validity of this Arbitration Agreement with binding effect for the state-run courts. The place of arbitration is Paderborn, Germany. The Arbitration
Tribunal consists of three arbitrators. The applicable law is German Law. The language of the arbitral proceedings is English. 
 13.
Should individual provisions of this Agreement be ineffective or non-feasible or contain any regulatory gaps this will not affect the validity of the other provisions. Instead of the ineffective or non-feasible provision, that effective and feasible
provision will be considered as agreed that comes closest to the meaning and purpose of the ineffective or non-feasible provision.

 2. Pricing Assumptions 
 The pricing in the table above was established using the following assumptions: 
  

	 	a)	cable cost of $[***] per meter for the [***] assembly (including [***]% handling charge) 

 

	 	b)	cable cost of $[***] per meter for the [***] assembly (including [***]% handling charge) 

 

	 	c)	cable cost of $[***] per meter for the [***] assembly (including [***]% handling charge) 

 

	 	d)	Exchange rate of $[***] US Dollars per Euro 

 At the time of production release and on Jan 1 and July 1 of each calendar year thereafter the price of the trunk and drop cable assemblies will be adjusted in the event that the total amount of the
cable cost (a-c) and exchange rate (d) cost changes to Phoenix Contact are greater than +/- 5% compared to the figures a) – d). Any changes either up or down that are less than that magnitude will be absorbed by Phoenix Contact.

 The price of the AC Drop cable will be reduced based upon the volume commitment reductions as listed below (non accumulative)

TO THE OMITTED PORTIONS. 

 3. Delivery Terms 

FCA Poland or Germany facility (Incoterms 2000). 
 4. Forecast and raw material liability 
 ENPHASE accepted purchase orders
and forecast will constitute authorization for Phoenix Contact to procure inventory to manufacture the CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS covered by such purchase orders and forecast based on the lead time of the raw materials required to build the CONTRACTUAL
PRODUCTS. Phoenix Contact will not make purchases of NCNR (non-cancellable, non-returnable) raw material inventory in excess of 90 days in lead time without the express written consent of ENPHASE. This written consent may take the form of a blanket
authorization for certain commodities or raw material for ease of management. 
 5. Delivery Performance 

On time delivery shall be measured and reported to ENPHASE on a monthly basis as measured against the original commitment date provided to
ENPHASE by Phoenix Contact. Orders shall be considered on time if they are shipped from one week earlier than the scheduled shipment date up to one day after the scheduled shipment date. On-time delivery shall be the sole responsibility of Phoenix
Contact except in cases where ENPHASE has requested delivery inside of mutually agreed lead times. In this instance, Phoenix Contact shall make all reasonable efforts to support the mutually agreed delivery times. The target for on-time delivery of
product shall be 95% on time. If Phoenix drops below this percentage for two months in a row or drops below 70% for one month, Phoenix Contact shall provide ENPHASE with a written corrective action plan. If, after 60 days from this written plan
delivery performance has not improved to the target, Phoenix Contact shall be considered in material breach of the contract. 

6. Payment terms 
 45 days net after date of invoice. 
 7. Currency 

US dollar ($) 

8. Exchange rate 
 Invoicing shall be in US dollars. The exchange rates of US dollars into Euros shall be recalculated every six months according the following procedure: The basis for calculation the exchange rates with

 Prototypes 
 As mentioned in the Cooperation Agreement Article 2.5 PREPRODUCTION PROTOTYPE shall mean any Prototype that is listed on the Roadmap/schedule Annex 7. For the Sake of clarification PREPRODUCTION
PROTOTYPES are not CONTRACTUAL PRODUCTS, so that especially the regulations of Quality Defects, Epidemic Failure and Limitation of Liability are not applicable. 
 As agreed in the Cooperation Agreement ENPHASE will receive the PREPRODUCTION PROTOTYPES for testing purposes only. 
 The PREPRODUCTION PROTOTYPES have the restrictions as described in Roadmap/schedule Annex 7. 
 The
PREPRODUCTION PROTOTYPES are a pure laboratory version and thus a hardware that has only been partly tested and is provided to ENPHASE for test purposes only. The PREPRODUCTION PROTOTYPES and the documentation of parts thereof shall not be used in
life operations, because Phoenix Contact cannot warrant a faultless operation. The included information does not absolve ENPHASE from their own responsibility of checking the suitability in each individual case, and may not be used untested nor be
generalized. 
 ONLY IN CASE OF WILFUL ACT PHOENIX CONTACT IS LIABLE FOR DEFECTS; BUT NOT FOR CONSEQUENCES OF DEFECTS OR MALFUNCTION OR ANY
DAMAGES CAUSED BY ENPHASE OR A THIRD PARTY BY USING OR DISTRIBUTING THE PREPRODUCTION PROTOTYPES. IN NO CASE SHALL PHOENIX CONTACT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OR LIABILITIES OF ANY KIND
INVOLVING CLAIMS THAT WERE CAUSED BY THE USE OR THE IMPOSSIBILITY OF USE OF THE PREPRODUCTION PTOTOTYPES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF OPPORTUNITIES OR LOSS OF DATA, UNDER ANY THEORY OF
LIABILITY AND EVEN IF SUCH PARTY WERE ADVISED OF THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH DAMAGES OR LIABILITIES. 
 ENPHASE agrees to use the provided hardware
at its own risk and not in safety-related areas and/or for safety function purpose. 
 Circulation of the provided PREPRODUCTION PROTOTYPES and
documentation as a whole, in excerpts or as copy to a third party and the export to other countries is forbidden. In case of infringement of the above obligations ENPHASE has the obligation to indemnify Phoenix Contact completely upon first request
especially for any claims of a third party resulting from the operation of the PREPRODUCTION PROTOTYPES. 
 ENPHASE agrees to return all
“Sample B” PREPRODUCTION PROTOTYPES if requested by Phoenix Contact. Should this occur Phoenix Contact will exchange those PREPRODUCTION PROTOTYPES with series products at no cost for ENPHASE. 

For this Agreement, the laws of Switzerland shall apply exclusively. The provisions of the Vienna UN Convention for Contracts on International Sale of
Goods of 11 April 1980 (UN Purchase Law) are excluded. 
 All disputes arising from or in connection with this Agreement, including all
questions regarding its creation, its validity and its termination, shall be finally decided according to the rules of arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) by three (3) arbitrators pursuant to the mediation and arbitration
body of the ICC. Each party shall appoint an

arbitrator for confirmation at the organisation in charge according to the applicable rules (appointment authority). The two appointed arbitrators shall ap-point the third arbitrator within 30
days. In the event the two arbitrators cannot agree on a third arbitrator within this period, the organisation shall appoint him. If several defendants are involved in the legal dispute, the appointment of an arbitrator through the defendants has to
be coordinated among the defendants. In the event the defendants cannot agree on such a common appointment within the period determined by the organisation, the legal proceedings against them shall be separated. The place of jurisdiction shall be
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, USA. Court language shall be English.

 2. Pricing Assumptions 
 The pricing in the table above was established using the following assumptions: 

North America: 
  

	 	a)	cable cost of $[***] per meter for the [***] assembly (including [***]% handling charge) 

 

	 	b)	cable cost of $[***] per meter for the [***] assembly (including [***]% handling charge) 

 

	 	c)	cable cost of $[***] per meter for the [***] assembly (including [***]% handling charge) 

 

	 	d)	Exchange rate of $[***] US Dollars per Euro 

 Europe: 
  

	 	a)	cable cost of $[***] per meter for the [***] assembly (including [***]% handling charge) 

 

	 	b)	cable cost of $ tbd per meter for the [***] assembly (including [***]% handling charge) 

 

	 	c)	cable cost of $[***] per meter for the [***] assembly (including [***]% handling charge) 

 

	 	d)	Exchange rate of $[***] US Dollars per Euro 

 At the time of production release, on October 1 2011 and on Jan 1 and July 1 of each calendar year thereafter the price of the trunk and drop cable assemblies will be adjusted in the event that the total
amount of the cable cost (a-c) or exchange rate (d) cost changes to Phoenix Contact are greater than 
 [***] = CERTAIN INFORMATION ON THIS PAGE
HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE COMMISSION. CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED WITH RESPECT TO THE OMITTED PORTIONS. 

 
+/- 5% each compared to the figures a) – d). Any changes either up or down that are less than that magnitude will be absorbed by Phoenix Contact. The baseline for every recalculation shall
be the price of the new agreed pricing as above mentioned (rev. of Annex 6) 
 The calculation of the exact
price-change for cables according to article 2, Annex 6, and according to the exchange rate according to Article 8, Annex 6, shall be carried out within one month after the 1st of January or the 1st of July of each calendar year. The calculated cost changes shall be valid onwards 1st of February or 1st of August of each calendar year. 

The price of the AC Drop cable will be reduced based upon the volume commitment reductions as listed below (non accumulative) 

 

					
	 [***] to [***] sets
	  	 	[	***] $ 
	 [***] to [***] sets
	  	 	[	***] $ 
	 [***] or greater sets
	  	 	[	***] $ 

 At this point in time production of the splice box incl. related cable is based on the [***] available
production-lines with a capacity of [***] Mio pcs, per year ([***] days/week, [***] shifts, [***]% availability) and the proposed [***] line with a capacity of [***] pcs./year ([***] days/week, [***] shifts, [***]% availability). Phoenix Contact

of mutually agreed lead times. In this instance, Phoenix Contact shall make all reasonable efforts to support the mutually agreed delivery times. The target for on-time delivery of product shall be 95% on time. If Phoenix drops below this percentage
for two months in a row or drops below 70% for one month, Phoenix Contact shall provide ENPHASE with a written corrective action plan. If, after 60 days from this written plan delivery performance has not improved to the target, Phoenix Contact
shall be considered in material breach of the contract.
