quoted by SMTC shall remain in effect for a period of three months from
the date of written quotation, with update pricing provided to
OnScreen-'T" on a quarterly basis. Such prices shall be exclusive of all
applicable taxes. In the event that there is a change in market conditions
or pricing from suppliers in connection with any parts, components and
other materials to be purchased by SMTC, then either party may request
amendment to any quoted price by giving written notice to the other party
detailing the specific reasons for the requested pricing change. The
parties shall then use their reasonable commercial efforts to attempt to
negotiate, in good faith, any required amendment to any such quoted
price(s) to fairly reflect the change in
____________________ ___________________

[GRAPHIC OMITTED]
defining manufacturing solutions
market conditions. If such an amendment is negotiated by the parties, an
appropriate adjustment shall be made to the price for each unit of Product
incorporating any parts, components or other materials subject to the
price change from quoted prices.
4.2 The terms of payment by OnScreenT" shall be Net 30 days from date of
invoice or shipment, whichever is the last to occur. In the event
outstanding balances extend beyond 30 days, SMTC will work with OnScreen
to rectify the past due balances. If the overdue payments are not made
current to the satisfaction of SMTC, SMTC reserves the right to place all
shipments to OnScreenTu on hold until all past due amounts owing to SMTC
by OnScreenT" have been paid. Additionally SMTC reserves the right to
charge OnScreenTM interest on any overdue payment owing under this
Agreement at a rate per annum equal to the Prime Rate plus 2% per annum,
such interest to accrue and be calculated daily.
4.3 In the event that any Engineering Change Order or change to the Master
Xxxx of Material results in an increase or decrease in the price of, or
time required for, the performance of any aspect of the Services, the
parties will negotiate, in good faith, an appropriate adjustment to the
contract pricing and/or delivery schedule to reflect such changes. After
prior written approval by OnScreenTM, OnScreenT^ shall be responsible for
all costs related to obsolescence and additional set-up costs relating to
any Product changes requested by OnScreenTM. SMTC will use reasonable
commercial efforts to minimize such costs.
4.4 The parties agree that SMTC allocates a material scrap/shrinkage factor of
1 % of the unit cost of parts, components and other materials listed in
the Master Xxxx of Material. This allocation will be applied to losses in
respect of parts, components and other materials during the normal
manufacturing process. This allocation will not be applied to finished
Products which do not pass normal testing ("Offine Products"). SMTC will
use reasonable commercial efforts to recover Offine Products, however it
is understood that manufacturing yields for finished goods rarely reach
100% in an automated manufacturing environment. All Products will be
manufactured in accordance with the IPC-A-610C international standard.
In the event OnScreen'sT" design of parts, components and other materials
and/or required procurement of parts, components or other materials from
the approved vendor list directly results in the normal yield
characteristics of a part, component or other material and/or assembly
process not being met, SMTC shall have the right to invoice OnScreenT"'
for any scrap and/or shrinkage cost in excess of the 1 % level and/or any
additional process assembly costs, provided that (1) SMTC has provided
OnScreenT" with written reports indicating SMTC's detection of the
fault(s) which is attributable to OnScreen'sTm design.
In the event SMTC's manufacturing/fabrication/assembly process and/or any
engineering initiated by SMTC directly results in the normal yield
characteristics of a part, component or other material and/or assembly
process not being met, SMTC shall immediately notify OnScreenT" of the
manufacturing/fabrication/assembly process and/or engineering deficiency
and shall account to OnScreen ' for all of the non-salvageable parts and
components.
During the normal manufacturing process, it is possible that Products
produced in accordance with all Specifications will not pass Product
testing. After prior written approval of OnScreenT"', SMTC reserves the
right to use commercially reasonable efforts to repair and or rework the
Product. In the event it is unfeasible to repair the Product to a
shippable state, SMTC will invoice OnScreenTM after a period of 30 days
for the Product.

4.5 SMTC's quoted Assembly Charges are based on standard deliveries of parts,
components and other materials available to the electronics industry, In
the event that certain parts, components or other materials are on
allocation or in the event that additional costs are incurred in order to
procure parts, components or other materials to meet changes in
OnScreen'sTM Forecasts that are beyond the agreed upon allowable variance
in scheduling referred to in Section 8.1, then, after prior written
approval by OnScreen"', such additional costs shall be invoiced to
OnScreenTM. In addition, OnScreenTm shall be responsible for any
additional costs resulting from Engineering Change Orders, replacement of
suppliers requested by OnScreenT"" in writing or special transportation of
Products requested by OnScreenTM in writing, including without limitation,
all applicable freight charges, duties, taxes and brokerage fees, and
OnScreenTM shall indemnify and save harmless SMTC in connection with such
costs.
4.6 Both SMTC and OnScreenT"^ shall proactively plan and implement cost
reduction programs, including cost reductions to the parts, components and
other materials, Products or assembly processes. OnScreenTM will receive
100% of all demonstrated cost reductions initiated by OnScreenTM in the
form of an immediate reduction in the pricing charged to OnScreenT'" for
the Services, exclusive of parts, components or other materials on hand,
in transit, or on order prior to the cost reduction. Upon implementation
of any engineering, design, manufacturing, fabrication or production cost
reductions which have been initiated by SMTC and approved by OnScreen"",
SMTC will retain 50% of the demonstrated cost reduction for the first 12
months with the balance applied as a reduction to the pricing charged to
OnScreenTM for the Services. After the said 12 months, all such cost
reduction shall be credited to OnScreenTM.
