QUALITY STANDARDS AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS

General

Plexus agrees to maintain a quality assurance program compliant with the requirements of ISO 9002: 2000. Plexus agrees that the manufacturing processes employed by Plexus shall comply with “The Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS) Directive” (2002/95/EC) if Customers requests such manufacturing process in Customer’s request for quotation. Plexus will not assess or be responsible for the effect ROHS compliant assembly processes may have on product reliability or, if Customer requests in writing Assemblies containing “mixed technology” (as defined below), the reliability of Assemblies containing “mixed technology” (e.g. lead bearing components assembled with lead free alloy or lead free components assembled with lead bearing alloy). The foregoing shall in no way limit or otherwise affect Plexus’s obligations under Sections 5(e) or 9. Plexus shall certify, in writing, the country(ies) of origin for each Assembly if requested in writing on the Purchase Order.

Workmanship Requirements

Assemblies manufactured by Plexus will be assembled, inspected, and tested in accordance with the Specifications. Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing, Plexus shall maintain an Assembly assurance “workmanship” requirement which mandates internal compliance to IPC-A-610 Class 2. Target process in writing and Assembly first pass yields (or PPM’s) in manufacturing shall be jointly agreed to between

Plexus Quality Engineering and the Customer. These Customer goals will form the basis for Continuous Quality Improvement (“CI”) Activities at Plexus.

Continuous Improvement

Plexus and Customer agree to hold a CI meeting or conference call as often as necessary to be established with the Customer’s Quality Team and Plexus CI Team. This CI event will result in documented action items at Plexus that drive improvement efforts that can be reported to management at both organizations.

Chronic Tests Failures (“Production”)

Customer Assemblies will be manufactured and tested to the Specifications associated with the current Assembly revision. Assemblies that fail the approved tests three (3) times for the same issue that is not manufacturing related or that cannot be repaired by Plexus due to a design related issue will be deemed non-repairable Assemblies. The non-repairable Assemblies will be clearly marked as “failed Assemblies.” Both companies agree to review the status of all “failed Assemblies” within ten (10) business days of identification and to dispose of them by scrapping the Assemblies at Plexus and invoicing the Customer or shipping the Assemblies and invoicing the Customer. Assembly invoices will be issued at the quoted Assembly price with payment terms as described in Addendum 3 of this Agreement.

Epidemic Failure.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Epidemic Failure” shall mean the occurrence of an identical or substantially similar repetitive Plexus workmanship defect in Assemblies that either fail or are found defective while under warranty, at a rate of 4% or greater in the Assemblies delivered to Customer during any six (6) month period within the warranty period.

In the event of a suspected Epidemic Failure, Customer shall promptly notify Plexus, and shall provide the following information, if known and as may then exist: a description of the defect, and the suspected lot numbers, serial numbers or other identifiers, and the delivery dates of the defective Assemblies. Customer shall also deliver or make available to Plexus samples of the allegedly defective Assembly for testing and analysis.

Within five (5) business days of receipt of such samples from Customer, Plexus shall provide its preliminary findings regarding the cause of suspected failures. Thereafter, Plexus shall promptly provide the results of its root cause corrective analysis, its proposed plan for the identification of and the remedy of the affected Assemblies (as applicable), and such other information as deemed appropriate by Plexus. The parties shall cooperate and work together to expeditiously devise and implement a mutually-agreed corrective action program which identifies the defective Assemblies (as applicable) for either repair or replacement at Plexus’ option.

In the event of an Epidemic Failure, Plexus shall, at its expense: (a) provide Customer in with repaired or replaced Assemblies per the terms of the Limited Warranty stated under section 9; (b) reimburse Customer its reasonable freight and transportation costs in shipping to the affected end users the repaired or replaced Assemblies, and (c) order and purchase Components to build additional Assemblies in quantities sufficient to cover predicated future failures, but not to exceed one (1)

month of the then-current quarter’s Demand. These replacement Assemblies will be used by Plexus to expedite warranty service for future failed Assemblies if the root cause analysis indicates that additional Assemblies are susceptible to failure. If, after three (3) months of the initiation of the corrective action program for a specific instance of Epidemic Failure, there are residual Components or Assemblies in Plexus possession that have not been used to fulfill the obligations of this section, then Impinj will promptly issue a Purchase Order for the remaining Assemblies or Components for delivery within thirty (30) days.

Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Plan.

Plexus’ disaster recovery and business continuity plan is as set forth in Addendum 4 of this Agreement. Plexus may update such plan from time to time. Plexus agrees to provide Customer of any updated plan upon the written request of Customer.

Inspection of Manufacturing Facility.

Plexus shall permit Customer or Customer’s customer if such customer has or executes an NDA with Plexus (or with Impinj if such NDA protects Plexus’ confidential information to the same extent as the confidentiality provisions in this Agreement (in which case Impinj will be responsible to Plexus for any breach by such customer of the NDA) to inspect Plexus’ manufacturing facilities. Plexus shall provide Customer with assistance, documentation and information that Customer may reasonably require to evaluate whether Plexus and the Assemblies conform to the Specifications. Plexus shall provide Customer at least ninety (90) days’ written notice for any manufacturing facility Plexus plans to use in the performance of work hereunder.

Customer acknowledges that Plexus may be required by Suppliers to procure Components in minimum or economic order quantities and that such quantities may exceed Customer’s actual Demand. Customer will be liable for any such minimum or economic order quantities so procured by Plexus; provided, that Plexus provides Customer advance written notice of any such minimum or economic order quantities.

DEMAND CHANGES AND CANCELLATION

Demand may not be rescheduled or cancelled within thirty (30) days of the Delivery Date (the “Frozen Period”). Demand with a Delivery Date extending beyond the Frozen Period may be rescheduled at the request of Customer. Any Demand cancellation or rescheduling will be subject to Customer liability for Components under Addendum 2 hereof.

Plexus will make all reasonable efforts to accommodate any increase in Demand by Customer; provided, that Plexus agrees to accommodate any increase in Demand by Customer within the Upside of 20%. Plexus will notify Customer as soon as practicable of any Components impeding Customers requested increase in Demand. Should any additional costs be required to expedite delivery of Assemblies or Components to meet Customer’s increase in Demand, Plexus will notify Customer of the same and, if approved by Customer, Customer shall pay Plexus for such additional cost.

DELIVERY

The delivery date for an Assembly will be the delivery date set forth in Customer’s Purchase Order accepted in writing by Plexus (the “Delivery Date”). Assemblies will be shipped by Plexus Ex Works (Incoterms 2000) Plexus’ plant of manufacture. Assemblies will be deemed delivered upon Plexus’ release of Assemblies to the carrier for shipment.

COMPONENTS SUPPLIED BY CUSTOMER

Customer may provide Plexus with Customer-Supplied Components or Components purchased by Plexus from Customer that are required to manufacture Customer’s Assemblies. Customer will be responsible as a Supplier to Plexus for the quality and on-time delivery of Components supplied to Plexus. Title and risk of loss to Customer-Supplied Components shall at all times remain with Customer. Plexus will not cause to occur any lien or encumbrance on Customer-Supplied Components and shall insure the same at the replacement value thereof while in its possession under the terms of Plexus’ then current insurance policies with Customer listed as loss payee. Any Customer-Supplied Components incorporated in the Assemblies will be without warranty by Plexus of any kind.

Customer’s inability to provide defect-free Components in a timely manner may affect Plexus’ ability to meet Delivery Dates. Any additional expenses that Plexus must incur due to delayed shipment resulting from a quality or delivery issue from Customer will be borne by the Customer. In addition,

Plexus reserves the right to define a new Delivery Date based upon the availability and condition of Components supplied by Customer.

COMPONENT INVENTORY REPORTING, LIABILITY AND COVERAGE

Component Supply

If requested by Customer, Plexus agrees to purchase Components under Customer-negotiated agreements with Component Suppliers if such agreements are provided to Plexus in writing. Plexus agrees that the terms and conditions of such agreements are confidential information of Customer. For the avoidance of doubt, Plexus does not hereby assume any of Customer’s obligations in such agreements. Any assumption by Plexus of such obligations will only be by a subsequent written agreement signed by an authorized Plexus representative, Customer and the applicable Component Supplier. In addition, should the terms of any such written assumption by Plexus or included in any other agreement established with any Customer directed supplier preclude Plexus from performing its obligations under this Agreement or be inconsistent with Plexus’ obligations hereunder (after Plexus has made a reasonable attempt to avoid this situation and provided written notice to Customer thereof), Plexus will be relieved of such obligations and the parties will, at either party’s request, revisit the terms of this Agreement and/or existing pricing and make an equitable modification.

Component Mitigation

Plexus may have OX Components on hand or on order from time to time as a consequence of Demand cancellation or reschedule, Plexus’ support of increases to Demand by Customer, the failure of Purchase Orders to consume previously Forecasted requirements, the failure of Purchase Orders to consume a 20% Upside, the failure to have adequate or conforming supplies of Customer consigned, supplied,

or managed Components, end of life requirements, economic or minimum order quantities, or engineering or material change orders.

Customer is only liable for Component costs as provided in Section 2c. below. Plexus will use all reasonable efforts to minimize Component liability to Customer caused by Customer Demand changes, cancellations, and other factors. These efforts will include returning Components to, or restocking Components with, Suppliers, canceling orders with Suppliers, or using Components to meet the current demand of other Plexus customers. Customer agrees to assist Plexus in such efforts if appropriate and requested by Plexus.

Customer acknowledges that Plexus’ mitigation efforts, even if successful, may result in cancellation, restocking, and similar charges imposed by Suppliers. Plexus will obtain Customer’s approval prior to incurring such charges. If so approved by Customer, Customer will pay Plexus for the charges imposed within thirty (30) days from the date of Plexus’ invoice.

Component Inventory Reporting

On a monthly basis or upon Customer request, Plexus will provide a written report to Customer detailing the level of OX Components at Plexus (the “OX Report”). Customer will respond to Plexus in writing within ten (10) business days of receipt of the OX Report with any good faith disagreement to it, detailing with reasonable particularity the nature of any such disagreement. Should Customer disagree with the OX Report, Customer and Plexus will work in good faith to promptly resolve the disagreement, escalating such disagreement to executive management at the request of either party. Any undisputed portion of the OX Report will proceed to resolution as provided in Section 2d. below.

OX Component Liability Resolution

Subject to having performed the mitigation and reporting on OX Components as provided above, Customer shall:

(i)

remit payment to Plexus for Obsolete Components at the Component Value thereof within thirty (30) days of Customer’s receipt of the OX Report; and

(ii)

with respect to Excess Components, at its option and within thirty (30) days of Customer’s receipt of the OX Report, either (i) remit payment to Plexus for the Excess Components at the Component Value thereof, or (ii) provide Plexus with a Purchase Order for Assemblies that will consume the Excess Components within thirty (30) days, or (iii) pay Plexus one percent (1%) per month carrying cost for one month, two percent (2%) per month carrying cost for months two (2) and three (3), and three percent (3%) per month carrying cost for months four (4) through six (6). In the event Plexus has held onto Excess Components greater than six (6) months under this option, Customer will remit payment to Plexus for the Excess Components at the Component Value thereof.

Upon Customer’s payment for Obsolete Components or Excess Components, Plexus will, at Customer’s election, either ship these Components to Customer Ex Works (Incoterms 2000) Plexus’ facility or scrap the Components. If Plexus retains and

stores Excess Components paid for by Customer, Plexus will protect and insure these Components in accordance with Section 5 of Addendum I hereof.

Finished Goods Inventory.

Inventory.

Plexus agrees to maintain a finished goods inventory of Assemblies. Impinj agrees to work with Plexus to minimize the finished goods inventory while meeting Impinj’s business needs. Plexus shall invoice Customer when the finished goods are completed, whereupon title and risk of loss will pass to Customer. Notwithstanding, Plexus shall be responsible to insure such inventory at the full replacement value thereof. Such insurance will name Customer as the loss payee and certificates evidencing this coverage will be provided to Customer upon request. Unless otherwise requested by Impinj and agreed to by Plexus, at the end of each Plexus fiscal quarter, in the event Plexus has on hand finished goods inventory more than the then-current average monthly Purchase Order Demand for such fiscal quarter, Plexus shall be entitled to ship such Assemblies to Customer at the end of such fiscal quarter. In addition, any Assemblies that have been maintained by Plexus over one fiscal quarter may be reworked by Plexus with the prior written approval of Customer and at Customer’s expense. Otherwise, such Assemblies will be shipped from Plexus prior to the end of Plexus’ next fiscal quarter.

Cost.

All costs associated with the inventory management of the Assemblies in the finished goods inventory, including insurance costs, which will be included as part of Plexus’s quarterly price quotes set forth in Section 4(f) of the Agreement. Plexus shall list all such costs as part of its quarterly Assembly pricing quotes.

Review.

The parties agree to review the quantity of Assemblies in the finished good inventory on a quarterly basis.

Addendum 3

Pricing and Payment

Unless otherwise agreed by Plexus in writing, prices quoted are Ex Works (Incoterms 2000) Plexus’ manufacturing facility. Any additional or different requirements imposed by Customer following Plexus’ price quotation may require price adjustments. Any manufacturer’s tax, retailer’s occupation tax, use tax, sales tax, excise tax, or tax of any nature whatsoever imposed on or measured by the transaction between Plexus and Customer shall be paid by Customer in addition to the prices quoted or invoiced (excluding any taxes based on Plexus’ net income or its franchise taxes). In the event Plexus is required to pay such taxes, Customer shall reimburse Plexus for the same, within thirty (30) days of written demand by Plexus to Customer for such reimbursement. If the transaction between Plexus and Customer is exempt from all such taxes, Customer shall provide Plexus with a tax exemption certificate or other document acceptable to all taxing authorities at the time the order or contract is submitted. The prices quoted do not include, unless specifically stated otherwise, the cost for testing and/or submittals for Assembly approvals or any annual file maintenance fee, such as for UL, VDE, CSA or FCC. Plexus will assist Customer in obtaining such approvals and charge for such services at Plexus’ current hourly billing rate.

Pricing will be reviewed at QBRs conducted by the parties. In the event new pricing is agreed to at a QBR (or at any other time by mutual agreement), such new pricing will be implemented on shipments by Plexus beginning on the day following such agreement. On the day new pricing is implemented, Plexus will also write-down or write-up, as applicable, existing raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods inventory held by it to reflect the new agreed to pricing and invoice or credit Customer for the same, as applicable. Customer will pay such invoices as provided below.

Unless otherwise stated herein, all payments hereunder by Customer to Plexus shall be made in US Dollars within thirty (30) calendar days following the receipt of the invoice without set-off of any kind. Customer shall report any believed discrepancies in Plexus’ invoices no later than ten (10) business days after the date of invoice. Invoices not paid within thirty (30) days of the date thereof will be subject to an interest charge equal to the lesser of 1.5% per month or the highest rate allowed by law. Payment shall be deemed made when Customer’s check is received by Plexus or electronic fund transfer is completed.

Customer acknowledges that the above payment terms, and any other credit terms, limits, or vehicles granted by Plexus to Customer during the course of the performance of this Agreement, will be subject to periodic review and modification by Plexus at any time upon reasonable notice at its reasonable discretion. In addition, Customer acknowledges that Plexus may reasonably request, and Customer shall provide to Plexus promptly upon any such request, financial information to verify the financial condition of Customer, including, but not limited to, current balance sheets, cash flow statements and statements of income. Plexus will maintain any such

information provided by Customer to Plexus confidential in accordance with the terms of the non-disclosure agreement in place between the parties at the time of disclosure.

Addendum 4

Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Plan

I.	OBJECTIVE:

Plexus Corp.’s corporate objective is to prevent or minimize the effect of any event that would deny Plexus its ability to achieve its business objectives and execute its strategies successfully. The ultimate aim is to protect our employees, our customers, and our shareholders by providing ongoing loss prevention measures. As a leading contract manufacturer and engineering service provider, we will do everything in our power to ensure the safety of our employees, while restoring production, to minimize the impact on our customers.

II.	ASSUMPTIONS:

We assume five key areas that may cause an interruption in business. They include: (1) loss of manufacturing facility; (2) loss or interruption of information systems; (3) loss or interruption of key suppliers for equipment and components; (4) loss or interruption of work force; (5) and loss due to government regulations. It assumes that the disaster occurs during high volume production. Our plan assumes one or more of our other facilities is accessible, reciprocals are able to be implemented, at least 50% of our employees can get to work, our back-up suppliers and arrangements are operable, and communication lines are available.

III.	INTEGRATED EMERGENCY CONTINGENCY PLAN:

The nature of this plan is to provide immediate protection to employees and facility infrastructure, therefore limiting the damage caused by the disaster. The plan contains various pre-disaster planning elements (fire protection systems, chemical storage, spill control, emergency generators, etc.) Additionally, hazards specific to each site have been analyzed and addressed (earthquakes, severe weather, terrorism, adjacent site chemical storage / transportation, transportation interruption, community emergency, etc.).

IV.	BUSINESS CONTINUITY PLAN:

This plan deals with continuing the business operations following a disaster. The objective of this plan is to assure uninterrupted service to our customers. Some of the areas addressed are: media response, customer management, the transferring of work to other locations, computer resources, communication resources, replacement materials, etc.

V.	BUSINESS RECOVERY PLAN:

This plan deals with the elements of bringing the business back to pre-disaster status. It addresses restoration of facilities, communication systems, computer systems, human resources, customer relations, regulatory interactions, insurance, etc.

VI.	SUMMARY OF MAJOR ELEMENTS:

Our overall objective of the three plans is to bring individual customer production back on-line as soon as possible, while addressing the cost/benefit to our customers and the Company. Listed in the following sections is a summary of the major elements. Execution of the plans will be coordinated and communicated through designed methods and locations determined at the time of the disaster.

Production Issues

This element concentrates on actions to be taken in the event that we experience an interruption in business.

The first action will be to assure that the safety of our employees is protected. The next step will be an overall assessment of the affected building operations. Owners assigned to the major areas of concern (building, materials, equipment, tooling, documentation, and computer systems) will assess their function.

The Business Restoration Team, together with the owners of the various areas of concern, the Senior Management Steering Committee and others as deemed necessary, will meet to agree upon a short-term course of action and timeline. This may include using the subject facility in whole or in part, relocating the operation to another facility, or moving the work to other Plexus facilities. From this, customer and public communication can be made through the proper channels. Customer teams in the affected building(s) will work with the owners in the various areas to understand and more completely define the potential impact of the event to their deliveries, and develop recovery schedules for the customers.

Plexus has similar equipment in several of its manufacturing facilitates. This allows for the immediate transfer of product to other facilities as capacity allows. In addition, Plexus has a strong relationship with the suppliers of major equipment and materials, which extends the resources available in time of need beyond Plexus alone. The Manufacturing Technology group will coordinate recovery activities along with the Maintenance and Manufacturing Engineering personnel of the facility affected.

Plexus Procurement and Materials management team is positioned to react to loss of raw and work in process materials in the event of a disaster. Suppliers are key to our ability to produce product since Plexus does not manufacture components internally. The procurement and materials team has an “assessment of damage” plan that immediately reviews the status of component materials, suppliers impacted and the Plexus staffing which buys/deploys material. This assessment of damage plan assures that the supply of component materials will continue with minimal delays. This plan will tactically follow the manufacturing disaster plan, especially in the event of a change in manufacturing facilities.

Public, Investor and Employee Relations

The primary objectives of this element are timely communication to the public at-large including the investment community and the employees on the status of the Company. The Chief Financial Officer will work with the Site Management and Senior Management to address this issue.

Customer Relations

The overall objective of this element is the timely distribution of complete and accurate information to customers. With other team members, the VP of Customer Management will assess the impact of the disaster and develop a situation-specific recovery plan outline, including a target timeline for communicating the Company’s recovery plan. Communication to all customers will be in writing (via email where possible) describing the disaster, its likely impact on their production and projects, the timetable for getting back to them with a full response, and a primary contact for the interim.

Once the full impact of the disaster is known and the recovery production and/or project schedule is established, follow up communications will be made with the customers to advise them of the status of their program(s).

Environmental, Health & Safety

The Environmental, Health & Safety Department has the responsibility for directing the compliance activities for the entire corporation. To fulfill this responsibility they have developed environmental / health / safety policies, proactive written programs, employee training plans, and internal / external audits. This proactive programming reduces the chance of a disaster and provides for timely remediation in the event of an emergency. The Corporate Facilities Manager will provide for all communications / permits to regulatory agencies under the direction of the Senior V.P. & Chief Legal Officer.

Facilities, Utilities and Communication

The Facilities Management Department has the responsibility to restore or replace the facilities, utilities and/or communications that have been affected. Our unaffected locations will be available for use depending on the nature of the disaster. Electricity will most likely be the utility needing restoration. Depending on the length and area of the outage, everything from backup generators to priority restoration of the primary service feeders for our facilities would be utilized. We have sufficient electrical generation capacity to provide for our communications and data processing needs. Communication backup sources are in place. These plans include alternate routing of incoming circuits, cell phones, and service provider reroute circuits from a different central office.

Information Systems

Plexus employs multiple levels of redundancy in the design and implementation of critical IT systems (i.e. disk mirroring, standby servers, redundant network paths for critical Plexus locations).

Plexus Corp has thoroughly planned for prompt restoration of their Information Systems in the event of an unplanned failure of core ERP (enterprise resource planning) systems. Plexus has contracted with a disaster recovery provider to ensure availability of equivalent systems and facilities, while restoration efforts of the failed systems are underway.

Additionally, periodic backups are made of critical data which are then removed and stored in a physically separate location, housed by a third party provider specializing in media storage. This enables multiple opportunities to recover end-user data stored on our network with minimal down time and impact to our customers.

Insurance Coverage

Insurance programs are negotiated and renewed on an annual basis, typically coinciding with the fiscal year. Coverage is provided based on exposure risk analysis and experience ratings. The policies included in the program coverage are as follows: property/boiler & machinery, business interruption, general liability, ocean cargo, electronic errors & omissions, automobile, non-owned aviation, aviation products liability, exporters liability, workers compensation, lead umbrella & excess, fiduciary liability, crime, earthquake & flood, and special risks.
