MANUFACTURING SERVICES AGREEMENT

Exhibit 10.16

This AGREEMENT is entered into as of the 23rd day of November, 2016 by Paramit Corporation, a California corporation (referred to in this Agreement as “Paramit” or “Supplier”), and Quanterix, Inc., a Delaware corporation (referred to in this Agreement as “Customer”). Each of Paramit and Customer may be referred to herein as a “Party” and are jointly referred to as the “Parties.”

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Customer intends to develop and commercialize certain products and wishes to contract with a contract manufacturing organization for the further refinement, manufacture and supply of such products; and

WHEREAS, Paramit has manufacturing and related services experience and expertise and owns a facility that is or would be suitable for production of such products; and

WHEREAS, Customer desires to retain Paramit as a supplier of the Product (as defined below), and Supplier desires to supply such Product and perform services for Customer on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and of the mutual covenants of the Parties hereinafter set forth, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

1. DEFINITIONS

Deterministic Acceptance Criteria: Paramit procures material to Customer Specifications, assembles and tests finished assemblies and Product also to Customer Specifications. An acceptance criterion that directly evaluates the functional performance of the Product to the Customer Specifications is called “deterministic”. Non acceptance will point to a particular part or function as being defective or inoperative. Examples: Pressure test, repeatability of a positioning system, bearing pre-load measurement etc. To contrast, an example of a non-deterministic criterion would be one where the customer’s application software fails but it does not point to any failing part of the machine. The particular test might fail owing to establishment of specification limits that are tighter than what the machine design is capable of delivering, or the variance in the consumables. Another example would be when the customer constructs a test whose result is a derivative of several parameters and therefore a failure of this test may not indicate where the problem lies or whether there is a problem at all.

“Acceptance Period” means [***] after shipment of Product from Paramit.

“Calendar Quarter” means each period of three consecutive calendar months ending on March 31, June 30, September 30 or December 31.

Form: ▇▇▇-F-0024 Rev 04

Portions of this Exhibit, indicated by the ▇▇▇▇ “[***],” were omitted and have been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Registrant’s application requesting confidential treatment pursuant to Rule 406 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

“Calendar Year” means each successive period of twelve months commencing on January 1 and ending on December 31; provided that the first Calendar Year shall be deemed to commence on the Effective Date and end on the December 31 thereafter, and the last Calendar year will commence on January 1 of such year and end on the date of expiration or termination of this Agreement.

“Customer Specifications” mean a detailed description of the functional and technical specifications for each Product, including BOMs, drawings, dimensions, manufacturing instructions, required performance characteristics, quality control tests, Deterministic Acceptance

Criteria, packaging and labeling instructions for each Product that is provided to and accepted by Paramit and are in effect at the time of Paramit’s commencement of manufacture of a Product.

The Specifications for each Product may be amended, from time to time, by written agreement of the parties; written agreement to amend Customer Specifications shall not be unreasonably withheld by either Party.

“ECO” means an engineering change order approved by the Parties as set forth in Article 13.

“Effective Date” means the date the Customer issues the first purchase order to Paramit for the Product or for NRE work.

“End User’’ means Customer’s customer and Customer’s third party distributor’s customer who ultimately purchase and operate the Product.

“FRU” means field replaceable unit manufactured by Paramit or other 3rd party suppliers that is considered a subsystem of the Product that can be purchased separately by Customer.

“Inventory” means, with respect to Products work in process (if any) and/or finished goods (if any) and not Materials.

“NREs” means non-recurring expenses associated with a Product, and include tooling, stencils, test fixtures, and test programs.

By way of example, materials may include resistors, capacitors, coils, integrated circuits, BGA’s, FPGA’s, power supplies, printed circuit boards, sheet metal, plastics, cases, fasteners, labels, cabling, connectors, grommets, and customer-specified packaging.

“Particular Purchase Order Terms” means the following terms in Customer’s purchase order: the identification of the Product to be manufactured, Customer’s specifications and specific revision, the price per item of such Product as established under Article 2 and Exhibit B of this

Agreement, the quantity of Product that Paramit is to manufacture, the date or dates of shipment, and the “ship to” address (provided that the “ship to” address may be provided at a date after the purchase order is accepted). In the case of a purchase order for NREs, the term “Particular Purchase Order Terms” means the following terms in the Customer’s purchase order: the identification of the NREs, the charge for the NREs and the descriptions of goods, services and other deliverables covered by the NREs. The terms and conditions of Customer’s purchase order other than the Particular Purchase Order Terms are not part of any contract between Paramit and Customer.

“Product” means the Quanterix Simoa product as described by the Customer’s Specifications and all subsequent revisions.

“Product Price” means the amount to be paid for each individual product as determined in Article 2 and Exhibit B.

“Spare Part” means any individual component in the ▇▇▇▇ of materials for the product that can be purchased by customer as an individual component for the purpose of field service repair.

“Warranty Period” means thirteen (13) months from the shipment of Product or FRU.

As used in this agreement, the word “include” and its variants are used to illustrate and not to limit.

2. BASIC AGREEMENT

(a) Paramit agrees to manufacture and sell, and Customer agrees to buy and pay for, the Product on the terms set forth in this Agreement and the Particular Purchase Order Terms for the Product.

(b) Paramit shall accept all purchase orders issued by Customer, provided that (i) Customer is not in breach of this Agreement, (ii) the purchase order is consistent with the agreed pricing, quoted quantities, lead times and payment terms, (iii) components and parts are in Paramit’s possession or available in the market.

(c) Paramit agrees to manufacture and test Product [***]. This means that the price of the Product will be determined as described in Exhibit B. If Deterministic Acceptance Criteria for

the Product has not been established, Paramit cannot predict labor times. Any additional re-work activity over and above the quoted labor amounts or shipping back and forth to Customer will be charged to Customer separately at standard Paramit rates.

(d) Paramit agrees to manufacture and test FRUs [***]. This means that the price of FRUs will be determined as described in Exhibit B.

(e) Paramit agrees to sell Spare Parts [***]. This means that the price of Spare Parts will be determined as described in Exhibit B.

(f) Paramit agrees that the pricing in this Agreement is based on transparency and Customer’s visibility into cost. Therefore, Paramit agrees to provide a costed BOM to Customer.

(g) The Price of Product, FRUs and Spare Parts will be reviewed at least annually. However, this will be done more frequently during the pilot phases and the first Calendar Year of production. Either Party can initiate a cost review if a significant change in cost has occurred.

(h) Cost of materials and components are based on quote(s) provided to Customer and after acceptance via issuing PO for product(s), such materials costs will be entered into Paramit system as “standard cost”. Subsequently, if any new part is added or deleted to the ▇▇▇▇ of Material (BOM), Paramit will have to quote it by employing provided quantity usage at the time. Similarly, Paramit will purchase materials from Customer based on established “standard cost” and not necessarily the cost Customer might have paid for at higher volume than purchase orders placed with Paramit.

3. PRODUCT ACCEPTANCE.

(a) During the Acceptance Period, Customer may test the Product with the same Deterministic Acceptance Criteria used by both Customer and Paramit. The Product is deemed accepted by the Customer after the expiration of the Acceptance Period. Product acceptance and expiration of the Acceptance Period has no effect on Customer’s rights to make a Warranty claim.

(b) Customer shall have the right to audit any Paramit facility at which the Product, or any component of the Product, is manufactured. Each audit shall be conducted during Paramit’s normal business hours, upon reasonable prior written notice to Paramit (“reasonable”, for purposes of this provision, shall, unless circumstances dictate otherwise, be ten (10) business days, shall last no longer than two (2) business days, and shall consist of no more than two (2) representatives from Customer, such representatives being individuals that are reasonably acceptable to Paramit). During an audit, Customer’s representatives will be escorted at all times by Paramit personnel and confined to limited area where the Product is manufactured. The audit activities will be strictly confined to manufacturing and quality related activities of the Product.

4. RETURNS, REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT.

(a) During the Warranty period for a Product, Customer may inspect and test the Product with the same identical test that is provided to Paramit for manufacture of Product and may return or repair in the field, in accordance with this Agreement, any Product found not to conform to Customer’s Specifications or to be defective in materials or workmanship.

(b) To return a Product, Customer must give to Paramit written notice during the Warranty Period in accordance with Exhibit A, REPAIR/ UPGRADE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. Paramit acknowledges that time is of the essence with regard to repairs and will promptly repair or replace returned Product, at Paramit’s option, and will deliver the repaired or replaced Product freight pre paid. If Paramit is unable to make the repair or replacement within a commercially reasonable period of time, Paramit will refund the price paid for such Product or cancel the obligation to pay for such Product.

(c) The provisions of this paragraph apply to the repaired or replaced Product, for which the Acceptance Period and Warranty Period will recommence on redelivery of such repaired or replaced Product,)and a like procedure for newly discovered defects. Thus, if a product is rejected because of a defect and Paramit provides a replacement product, the Acceptance period and Warranty Period for the replacement Product will start with Customer’s receipt of the replacement Product.

(d) lf Customer returns Product to Paramit under this section, but the Product conforms to Customer’s Specifications and the Product contains no other defect, Customer will bear all the risk and expense associated with the return, including all shipping expenses both ways, plus Paramit’s charges for testing in accordance with this Agreement.

(e) Defects in Materials will be covered by their respective manufacturers’ warranties. Customer will pay for shipping the product to Paramit and back to Customer. If Paramit is unable to repair or replace such Product within a commercially reasonable period of time, Paramit will refund the price paid for such Material. Paramit’s obligation to repair or replace (or refund the price) is conditioned on Customer’s making a claim in writing to Paramit no later than 30 days after the defect in materials first manifests itself. Paramit has no obligation with respect to a defect in Materials that manifest itself after the expiration of the component manufacturer warranty period. The foregoing warranty does not-apply to Materials supplied or consigned to Paramit by or at the direction of Customer, however, Paramit is responsible for commercially reasonable process for storage and handling of Materials supplied or consigned under its care, custody and control. The obligations set forth in this paragraph are Paramit’s sole and exclusive obligations with respect to a defect in Materials. Upon request, Paramit will assign to Customer rights under warranties made by suppliers of Materials that are used in the product.

(f) With mutual agreement, Paramit will investigate claims of failed Materials, where the failure rate is greater than [***] for commodity parts measured over one quarter, and all failures of custom parts. Additionally, Customer may, at its option, issue a written Corrective Action Request (CAR) to Paramit. If Customer issues a CAR, Paramit shall acknowledge receipt of the CAR no later than the close of business the next business day. Paramit’s response to a CAR shall be organized in a mutually agreeable format. Within 10 business days from the receipt of a CAR, Paramit shall develop and submit to Customer a plan to identify and solve the root cause for nonconformity to Customer’s Specifications or for Product defect.

(g) The rights and obligations of Customer with respect to any warranty claim are set forth in this section 4; Customer shall not offset any claim for damages for any defective Product against payments otherwise due Paramit, provided that Customer may not withhold payment due for such Product until the repair or replacement of such defective Product is complete.

(h) Customer will notify Paramit before returning any Products that may have been contaminated with hazardous materials. Customer will decontaminate all internal & external sections of products destined to return to Paramit, including tubes, waste tanks and other similar hazardous material pathways and remove all fluid and solid substances, as well as disposable parts from the device prior to return to Paramit. Customer will provide product identification information such as device serial number at the time of requesting RMA number.

(1) Customer shall not return any instruments to Paramit that may be contaminated with viable biological agents, harmful quantities of hazardous chemicals, or radioactive materials. Customer understands and agrees that decontamination is critical to issues of health and safety. Customer represents and warrants to Paramit to perform and complete all decontamination requirements prior to returning any such Product to Paramit.

(2) Customer hereby assumes all responsibility and liability for, and shall defend and indemnify Paramit against injury or damage incurred by Paramit and its employees, contractors, and/or agents that result directly or indirectly from the Customer’s breach of this representation and warranty.

(3) Customer accepts that Paramit has no obligation to repair, service, or transport any product if it is determined that the product is contaminated.

(4) Customer shall comply with applicable FDA and CDPH (California Department of Public Health) decontamination laws when returning any Product under this Agreement.

5. WARRANTIES.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in this agreement, Paramit represents and warrants to Customer that:

(1) Title to each Product will be good and on deliver of Product to Customer, Customer shall hold good title to the Product. The foregoing warranty does not apply to materials supplied to Paramit by, or at the direction of, the Customer.

(2) Each Product will be delivered free from any security interest or other encumbrance created by Paramit.

(3) Paramit will not infringe any patent, copyright, trade secret, trade-▇▇▇▇, maskwork, or other intellectual property right of a third party in manufacturing the product.

(4) Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, Paramit warrants to Customer that: (i) product will be manufactured in accordance with Customer’s Specifications. (ii) Product will be manufactured in accordance with IPC-A-610, Acceptability of Electronic Assemblies, Class 3 standards in effect at the time of manufacture unless otherwise specified in Customer’s specifications. (iii) As of the Effective Date, Paramit is ISO 13485 certified and Paramit will maintain that certification at all times relevant to the manufacture and delivery of Product.

(5) Product will be free from defects due to manufacturing process or defects in workmanship during the Warranty Period.

(6) Paramit will use commercially reasonable efforts to make warranty claims on Materials suppliers that Paramit purchases materials from for the manufacture of the Product for the benefit and to the account of the Customer.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing and without compromise of the representations and warranties given in 5 (a) (1) through 5 (a) (6), any representation and warranty by Paramit against defects (whether set forth in this section, another section, or implied by law) and any obligation by Paramit to repair or replace product (or to refund the purchase price) does not apply to the following:

(1) Any product that has been misused, damaged, or altered after shipment or that is damaged in shipping. Misuse includes improperly handling static-sensitive electronic devices or an attempt by any unauthorized third party to repair the product. Paramit and Customer acknowledge that the Customer plans to use its own personnel as well as its agents for repair of the product in the field and that a Service Plan will be jointly developed to authorize Customer and its agents to service the Product before Customer and its agents can service the instrument

without invalidating the Product warranty. This authorization will not be unreasonably withheld by Paramit.

(2) Materials consigned or supplied by Customer, or purchased from unauthorized brokers at the direction of Customer.

(3) Defects resulting from compliance with Customer Specifications, except for those manufacturing process and workmanship standards developed by Paramit for Customer.

(c) Paramit has no responsibility if Customer’s Specifications fail to comply with any governmental regulation or industrial specification, except as described in 5(a)(4), or if the product manufactured to Customer’s Specifications fail to meet the requirements of Customer’s customer or the end user.

(d) THE WARRANTIES MADE BY PARAMIT IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES OF PARAMIT. PARAMIT DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

6. LIABILITY FOR EXCESS MATERIALS

(a) Customer acknowledges that the cost of materials ordered or purchased by Paramit, but not used or consumed in the manufacture of product, is ultimately to be borne by Customer. Customer acknowledges that such cost has not been included in Paramit’s quote to Customer and is not reflected in the price of the product.

(b) Every month, Paramit will review Customer’s purchase orders for Product and the Materials on hand and on order that Paramit has allocated to manufacturing the Product. If Paramit reasonably determines that it will not use or consume a quantity of Materials for Product that will be shipped within 90 days of Paramit’s review or within lead time of the Product, whichever is greater, then that quantity of such Materials that Paramit determines that it will not so use or consume are referred to in this Agreement as “Excess Materials”. In order to keep the Customer continuously informed of the Excess Materials: Paramit will submit to the customer the exact amount of Excess Materials generally before the 10th of every month. Customer will review and seek clarifications if needed and acknowledge the Excess Material liability within 10 days of receipt. Subsequently, Customer shall issue a PO for Excess Materials to Paramit within 20 days of the original submittal. Customer will purchase Excess Materials from Paramit on request at the Materials Cost, subject to the requirements of this Article 6.

(c) Customer acknowledges that Paramit may order or purchase more materials to manufacture the Product than will be used or consumed in the manufacture of the product, which can result in Excess Materials that Customer must purchase. In the event that the expected

excess value of the component exceeds [***] at the time of purchase, then Paramit will obtain Customer’s written approval prior to ordering component. Paramit will order more materials than are required to manufacture the product for the benefit of the Customer and only because of:

(1) Minimum order quantity or the package size for the materials (e.g., a package contains 12 parts and an order for 100 products requires 9 packages of parts).

(2) Parts come on reels or tapes (which are entirely non-returnable once the reel or tape has been broken).

(3) Safety stock required by Customer.

(4) A lower price may be available from a supplier for a larger than needed quantity.

(5) Customer’s engineering change order, order reduction, or order cancellation may result in such materials becoming Excess Materials.

(d) The term “Materials Cost” means the amount paid or payable (including freight, insurance, and safes or use tax) by Paramit to its suppliers for Materials used or to be used for the Product that are non-returnable or non-cancelable. For Excess Materials that are returnable to the supplier and Customer has requested Paramit to return the materials, the reduced liability to the Customer will net restocking fees, freight, cancellation fees, and other charges by third parties associated with Paramit’s returning Materials or cancelling orders for Materials as well as any third party fees or charges associated with disposing of Materials that Paramit disposes on behalf of Customer.

(e) When Customer is obligated to purchase Excess Materials, Customer will pay Paramit an amount equal to the Materials Cost for such excess materials plus an amount equal to [***] of such materials cost (“Excess Materials Purchase Price”).

(f) Paramit will use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate Customer’s liability for Excess Materials to the extent allowed by suppliers or vendors but any imposed limitations on such mitigations will not reduce Customer’s liability for Excess Materials. Where feasible, Paramit will:

(1) Reallocate materials that are part of Excess Materials to other Paramit jobs that, in Paramit’s sole discretion, could use such Materials. In that event, Customer will have no liability to Paramit for the Materials so reallocated. Customer acknowledges that Materials that are custom-made for Customer will not be reallocated to other Paramit jobs and will constitute Excess Materials.

(2) Return Materials that are part of Excess Materials to Paramit’s suppliers to the extent permitted by the suppliers.

(3) Cancel orders for materials that are part of Excess Materials to the extent that orders are cancelable. Customer acknowledges that orders for Materials that are custom for Customer may be non-cancelable and such orders will be part of Excess Materials. Customer acknowledges that orders for Materials that are not custom for Customer may none the less be non-cancelable and in that case such orders will be part of Excess Materials.

(g) Within 10 days of Paramit’s requesting Customer to purchase the Excess Materials and notifying Customer of the details of the Excess Materials and the Excess Materials Purchase Price, Customer will issue its purchase order to purchase the Excess Materials for the Excess Materials Purchase Price. Payment terms are net 30.

(h) After the Customer has paid the Excess Materials Purchase Price, then, if Customer so requests, Paramit will deliver the Excess Materials to Customer at Customer’s expense FOB Paramit shipping dock. If Customer does not wish to take delivery of the Excess Materials, or if Customer fails to pay in a timely manner the Excess Materials Purchase Price, Paramit will store the Excess Materials for a period not to exceed 90 days from the date payment of the Excess Materials Purchase Price was due. All risk of loss to Excess Materials, whether shipped or stored at Paramit, will be borne by Customer. If Paramit notifies Customer to pick up Excess Materials being stored by Paramit and Customer fails to do so within 30 days of such notification, Paramit is permitted to ship material to Customer’s notice address, freight collect.

(i) Paramit may purchase Customer owned Materials/ Excess Materials, solely based on demand consumption rate of issued POs to Paramit and Paramit will pay Customer accordingly. Paramit solely, at its discretion may choose to transfer Customer’s usable, non-obsolete Materials/ Excess Materials to a consigned warehouse, designated to Customer at Paramit; the consigned warehouse is netable against Materials Requirement Planning (MRP) and will prompt Paramit to use such Materials / Excess Materials for any new demand. Paramit system will record transaction usage; Purchase Orders will be issued to Customer monthly.

7. LIABILITY FOR EXCESS INVENTORY.

(a) Customer acknowledges that Paramit’s pricing of the product is based on shipping Product promptly after manufacture and being paid in a timely manner.

(b) Once a month, Paramit will review Customer’s purchase orders and the Product Inventory that Paramit has on hand. If Paramit determines that Paramit has Product Inventory on hand that is not covered by open purchase orders and Paramit will not ship within 90 days of Paramit’s review or within the lead time of the Product, whichever is greater, then that portion of the Product Inventory on hand that Paramit determines that it will not so ship is referred to in this agreement as “Excess Inventory.” Customer acknowledges that Customer’s modification or cancellation of its purchase order may result in part or all the Product Inventory on hand not

being shipped within 90 days of such modification or cancellation and thereby becoming Excess Inventory that Customer must purchase. In order to keep the Customer continuously informed of the Excess Inventory: Paramit will submit to the customer the exact amount of Excess Inventory, generally before the 10th of every month. Customer will review and seek clarifications, if needed and acknowledge the Excess Inventory liability within 10 days of receipt. Subsequently, Customer shall issue a PO for Excess Inventory to Paramit within 20 days of the original submittal. Customer will purchase Excess Inventory from Paramit on request.

(c) The term “Excess Inventory Purchase Price” means, with respect to Excess Inventory Product that is finished goods, the Product Price for the Product set forth in the purchase order. The term “Excess Inventory Purchase Price” means, with respect to Excess Inventory that is work in process, the Purchase Price for the product set forth in the purchase order less the value of uncompleted work. The value of uncompleted work is the value of the test labor and assembly labor that have not been expended on the work in process.

(d) Within 10 days of Paramit’s requesting Customer to purchase the Excess Inventory and notifying Customer of the details of the Excess Inventory and the Excess Inventory Purchase Price, Customer will issue its purchase order to purchase the Excess Inventory from Paramit for the Excess Inventory Purchase Price. Payment terms are net 30.

(e) After Customer has paid the Excess Inventory Purchase Price, then, if Customer so requests, Paramit will deliver the Excess Inventory to Customer at Customer’s expense. If Customer does not wish to take delivery of the Excess Inventory, or if Customer fails to pay timely the Excess Inventory Purchase Price, Paramit will store the excess inventory for a period not to exceed 90 days from the date the Excess Inventory Purchase Price was due. All risk of loss to Excess Inventory paid for by Customer stored by Paramit will be borne by Customer. If Paramit notifies Customer to pick up Excess Inventory being stored by Paramit and Customer fails to do so within 30 days of such notification, Paramit is permitted to destroy or otherwise dispose of the Excess Inventory, but any such destruction or disposition shall have no effect on Customer’s liability for the Excess Inventory purchase price or entitle Customer to any refund. Customer will pay Paramit a storage fee equal to [***] of the Excess Inventory Purchase Price for each month (or part thereof) that Paramit stores the Excess Inventory after the date the Excess Inventory Purchase Price was due.

8. PURCHASE ORDERS

(a) After the building of Customer’s pilot Products and at least [***] or lead time whichever is greater, prior to the first day of each following Calendar Quarter, Customer will issue a Purchase Order for the products to be delivered in the following Calendar Quarter.

(b) With mutual agreement of both Parties, Customer may issue a Purchase Order for Materials with lead times longer than [***] or greater, to provide liability coverage for those

Materials as well as provide upside flexibility as described further in this Agreement. Materials are to be used only in the manufacture of customers Product.

(c) It is recommended that Customer places FRU and Spare Parts orders at the same time as ordering products to prevent Price Purchase Variance (PPV) and shipment delays due to lead time issues. In the absence of a spares forecasting process, both Parties agree to develop such process. Paramit shall not be expected to sell Components that have been purchased and designated for the manufacture of the products; as such requests may adversely affect product delivery dates and prevent Paramit from realizing planned revenue.

9. ORDER FLEXIBILITY

(a) Paramit welcomes increases in orders and or requests for earlier deliveries. Paramit will make reasonable efforts to accommodate such changes. Upon any such request, Paramit will promptly investigate lead times, component availability, and possible expediting fees imposed by vendors (or other third parties) and will advise Customer of feasible delivery dates and increased costs, if any. The Parties will mutually agree on the increased number of units of Product or accelerated delivery dates based on then prevailing market conditions, including lead times, component availability, and expediting fees. In negotiating such an agreement, Paramit will not seek to increase the Product Price and separately pass through to Customer increases in Materials Costs, including any expediting fees and overtime charges for after hours or weekend work requests. For clarity, any incremental charges associated with increased orders will be accounted for at incremental actual cost incurred and no markup whatsoever will be charged. For example, a supplier to Paramit is required to work overtime to meet a request to expedite a Material. The normal labor rate is $10.00 per hour and the overtime rate is time-and-a-half or $15.00 per hour. The labor content of the Material is one hour. Therefore, the Customer will pay the Product Price and be charged separately for $5.00 (the incremental actual cost incurred).

(b) Customer may defer delivery of [***] of Product one time for each Product order, only if the Product original ship date is more than [***] away and such deferral can be no more than [***] and Customer will pay for the remaining Products in accordance with this Agreement. However, within 12 months of the first Product shipment after pilot builds, Customer may defer delivery of [***] of Product one time for each Product order, only if the Product original ship date is more than [***] away and such deferral can be no more than [***] and will pay for the remaining Products in accordance with this Agreement.

(c) With mutual agreement, Customer can reduce lead time and increase flexibility by placing additional Purchase Orders for safety stock of all Materials required for a particular quantity of Products or specific Material with longer than desirable lead times or a combination of the two. In any case, Paramit will provide Customer with an analysis of cost to Customer and effect on lead time of the Product.

(d) Paramit acknowledges Customer’s changes in Product design or testing may require incorporating additional changes during the manufacturing process that will cause unanticipated delays and push out the original agreed ship dates. Progress payment will provide timeline flexibility to Customer for making such design and or test enhancements and at the same time facilitates Paramit to recover its expenditure on resources and materials. For any such delays by Customer, its subsidiaries or agents, Customer will agree to make a partial payment of [***] of Product price for the affected quantities. Customer will pay partial payment invoices: (i) net 30, if invoicing will be done within the PO due date or (ii) in 5 business days, if invoicing will be done past the original 30 payment due date. Upon all the necessary Product changes are completed and Customer is ready to receive the Product, Paramit will invoice Customer for the balance of payment upon shipment of the Product.

10. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

If a Party (the “Disclosing Party”) provides, directly or through a third party, proprietary or confidential information to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”), the Receiving Party will hold the information of the Disclosing Party in confidence with the same care as it treats its own proprietary or confidential information of a similar nature (but with no less than a reasonable degree of care), and the Receiving Party will take commercially reasonable precautions to prevent unauthorized disclosure, including requiring written nondisclosure agreements of its employees and limiting access to the information to those employees with a need to know the information. The Disclosing Party shall identify its proprietary or confidential information as such, except where information should be reasonably understood by persons familiar with the industry to be of a proprietary of confidential nature. Paramit will use proprietary or confidential information of Customer solely for the production and supply of Product to Customer. This paragraph does not apply to information of Disclosing Party that the Disclosing Party agrees may be released or to information or Disclosing Party that is published by Disclosing Party or others having the right to do so, or to information of Disclosing Party that is or becomes generally known to the public or within an industry through no fault of the Receiving Party, or to information that the Receiving Party can show was known by the Receiving Party at the time of receipt, is independently developed by the Receiving Party by persons who had no access to customer proprietary or confidential information, or is provided to the Receiving Party by a third party who has a right to provide such information. The Receiving Party is permitted to comply with a legal obligation that requires the Receiving Party to disclose proprietary or confidential information of the Disclosing Party, provided that the Receiving Party shall notify Disclosing promptly of the legal obligation, and will reasonably cooperate with any effort of the Disclosing Party to limit or obtain confidential treatment of such disclosure.

Customer shall take commercially reasonable precautions to prevent disclosure of any information pertaining to Paramit’s Intellectual Property (IP) and proprietary information, which is defined as any proprietary information, knowledge and know how that is conceived, created, written, put to practice, designed and developed by Paramit and, constructed through hardware

and software, including data collection, extraction, manipulation, compilation, presentation and reporting tools; know how such as automated, computerized, audio-visual instruction, assembly, verification and validation develop in connection with manufacturing, such as “vpoke’’ and “Spotlight”.

11. INSURANCE.

Paramit agrees to maintain in effect the following types of insurance while manufacturing the product and while in possession of product inventory:

(a) Commercial general liability insurance with policy limits of [***] for each occurrence and [***] in the aggregate.

(b) Automobile liability with policy limits of [***] for combined single limit.

12. PAYMENT TERMS.

(a) Payment terms are net 30. The Product Price is FOB (Incoterms 2010) Paramit’s shipping dock (net of sales and use taxes, if any). All prices are in U.S. Dollars. Paramit will submit invoices to Customer upon shipment of the Product. Each invoice will, at a minimum, refer to Customer’s purchase order number, part number, unit price, and total price. If Customer does not object to an invoice within 30 days from the date of the invoice, it is deemed correct. Customer will pay Paramit in full no later than 30 days from the date of Paramit’s invoice to Customer. If any sales or use tax applies to the sale or other disposition of product or materials or inventory, Customer will pay the tax.

(b) Customer agrees to provide financial information that includes [***], upon request. This information will not be requested more frequently that once a month.

(c) If Customer does not wish to take delivery of product, and if Paramit agrees, in its sole discretion, to ▇▇▇▇ and hold product in its possession, Paramit will transfer the Product to an area on Paramit’s premises that is segregated from Paramit’s manufacturing inventory. Upon such transfer, Customer will be liable to pay for the Product as though it were delivered to Customer. Paramit will store the product for a period not to exceed 90 days from the date the Product would otherwise have been shipped. All risk of loss to such product will be borne by Customer. Customer will sign an acknowledgment in a form requested by Paramit that title to the product passes to Customer, risk of loss to the product passes to Customer, and Customer is liable for the purchase price notwithstanding that delivery has not been made to Customer’s location. Product in Paramit possession under the terms of this Section will not be pledged or encumbered in any way.

(d) If Customer fails to pay an invoice within 30 days after payment is first due, Paramit may suspend work on the Product for which payment is overdue. If Customer fails to pay an invoice within 60 days after payment is first due, Paramit may suspend work on all contracts with Customer and Customer shall be in breach of this Agreement. Any sum owing to Paramit by Customer will bear interest at the rate of 1% per month, compound monthly, from the date due until paid.

(e) In the event of Customer’s material breach, Paramit is entitled to all remedies allowed by this Agreement or by law. Among other things, Paramit may cancel all further obligations to Customer to manufacture or sell the Product or to provide services.

13. ENGINEERING CHANGE ORDER (ECO) MANAGEMENT

To eliminate potential ambiguity, facilitating clear and effective management of changes to the Product, for any change in the Customer Specifications, Paramit and Customer agree to the following steps:

(1) Customer provides complete engineering ECO package for the proposed change to Paramit.

(2) Paramit will review Materials on order, on hand, Inventory, shipment schedules and provide impact analysis to Customer, which will also include any required Inventory rework charges.

(3) Customer may accept the outcome of ECO impact analysis in writing or ask for a revision and thereafter may accept the revised ECO impact analysis in writing or withdraw the change proposal, prior to ECO implementation.

(4) Upon receipt of written approval of the impact analysis from Customer, Paramit will proceed with ECO implementation.

(5) Customer will provide updated Product purchase order(s), reflecting new revision within 2 business days of providing written approval for ECO implementation to Paramit.

Customer will issue PO for obsoleted components and required rework of existing inventory within a week of providing written approval for ECO implementation to Paramit.

14. GRANT OF MANUFACTURING RIGHTS.

(a) The grant of rights in this section only applies to the manufacture, use, and sale of Product for which the Customer has submitted a purchase order that has been accepted by Paramit.

(b) If the Product, or any part thereof, is claimed by one or more patent(s) owned or controlled by Customer, Customer grants Paramit the limited right under such patent(s) to make, any Product ordered by Customer, only to the extent necessary for Paramit to perform its obligations to manufacture such Product under this Agreement. If the Product, or any part thereof, is protected by copyright held by Customer, Customer grants Paramit the limited, nonexclusive right under such copyright to reproduce the copyrighted work, to prepare derivative copies based on the copyrighted work, to distribute copies of the copyrighted work, and to perform or display the copyrighted work only to the extent necessary for Paramit to manufacture such Product ordered by Customer under this Agreement and to sell such Product to Customer. If the Product or any part thereof, is protected by trademark, trade secret, or other intellectual property rights, Customer grants Paramit the limited, nonexclusive right under such intellectual property right to make, the Product using such intellectual property rights only to the extent necessary for Paramit to manufacture such Product under this Agreement and to sell such Product to Customer. The grant of manufacturing rights will also extend to the right of Paramit to procure Materials of the Product that Paramit should order through sub-tier vendors, such as FAB, cable assemblies, sheet metals, plastics or other required custom Materials.

15. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

In no event, whether as a result of breach of contract, breach of warranty, tort (including active or passive negligence), strict liability, Product liability, or otherwise, shall either Party be liable to the other Party for any consequential or punitive damages of any kind, including loss of profits, loss of use, or interruption of business, whether or not such Party was advised of the possibility of such damages. Except for Customer’s obligation to indemnify Paramit under Section 16, in no event shall either Party’s liability to the other Party, its successors or assigns under this Agreement exceed [***]. The statute of limitations for an action by Customer for breach of Warranty or for other claim with respect to Product is shortened to two years from the date of shipment of the Product (i.e., an action must be filed before the second anniversary of the date of shipment).

16. INDEMNIFICATION.

Customer agrees to defend and indemnify Paramit and its employees against any liability (including attorney’s fees, interest, and penalties), and to hold Paramit and its employees harmless against any loss or expense (including attorney’s fees, interest, and penalties), arising out of a claim of a third party that is based on any alleged defect in, or infringement of a third party’s intellectual property resulting from the Customer’s Specifications. The foregoing indemnification obligation applies to, among other things, any claim that the Customer’s Specifications of the Product infringes a patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark, maskwork, or

other intellectual property right of a third party, any claim that the manufacture, shipment, or use of the Product pursuant to the Customer’s Specifications and any claim that the Product, as a result of the Customer Specification, is unsafe or unreasonably dangerous or negligently caused personal injury or property damage.

Paramit agrees to defend and indemnify Customer and its employees against any liability (including attorney’s fees, interest, and penalties), and to hold Customer and its employees harmless against any loss or expense (including attorney’s fees, interest, and penalties), arising out of a claim of a third party that (a) is based on Paramit’s manufacturing of the Product (except to the extent Paramit is indemnified by Customer under the terms of the preceding paragraph); or (b) any claim that Paramit’s manufacturing methods infringe a patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark, maskwork, or other intellectual property right of a third party.

Each Party agrees to give the other Party prompt written notice of any claims made for which the other Party might be liable under this Article 16. The indemnifying Party shall have the opportunity to defend, negotiate, and settle such claims; provided, however, that the indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such matter and to employ at its expense counsel to assist therein. The Party seeking indemnification shall provide the indemnifying Party with such information and assistance as the indemnifying Party may reasonably request, at the expense of the indemnifying Party. Neither Party shall be bound in any way by any settlement of a claim or suit made without its prior written consent; provided, however, that the indemnified Party shall not unreasonably withhold or delay such consent.

17. FORCE MAJEURE.

A Party to this Agreement is excused from liability for non-performance or for delay in performance if such non-performance or delay is caused by a force beyond the reasonable control of the Party and if such Party is unable to overcome the effect of the force on non-performance or delay by the exercise of due diligence at reasonable cost. Such a force includes acts of God (including floods, tornadoes, windstorms, lightning, epidemics, earthquakes, and landslides), fires or explosions (whether or not caused by negligence of an employee of a Party), strikes affecting the Party or labor disputes affecting third Parties (such as suppliers or freight companies), acts of war, terrorist acts, insurrection or civil disturbance, and governmental acts (such as seizures, quarantines, or embargoes). The foregoing applies whether the force affects a Party to this Agreement or a third party (such as a supplier or freight carrier). Financial inability of a Party to perform, no matter what the cause of such inability, is not excused by this paragraph. A Party claiming excuse under this paragraph shall promptly notify the other Party of the force causing non-performance or delay and the probable duration.

A Party affected by an event of force majeure shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to remedy such event and the effects thereof with all reasonable dispatch; provided, however, that

this Article 17 shall not require that the affected Party to settle a strike or labor controversy by acceding to the demands of the opposing Party or Parties.

18. TERM AND TERMINATION
