(a) As used herein, “Part” means any material, product, component, device, module, assembly, subassembly, or the like sold or delivered by Seller to Buyer either as Goods or as a constituent part of a Goods. “Counterfeit Part” means a Part that is (i) an unauthorized copy or substitute that has been identified, marked, and/or altered by a source other than the Part’s legally authorized source and has been misrepresented to be an authorized item of the legally authorized source, and/or (ii) previously used parts provided or represented as “new.” A Part is a “Suspect Counterfeit Part” if visual inspection, testing, or other information provides reason to believe that the Part may be a Counterfeit Part. As used herein, “authentic” means (i) genuine, (ii) from the legitimate source claimed or implied by the marking and design of the Part offered, and (c) manufactured by, or at the behest and to the standards of, the manufacturer that has lawfully applied its name and trademark for that model/version of the Part.

(b) Seller represents and warrants that only new and authentic Parts and materials are used in Goods required to be delivered to Buyer and that such Goods contain no Counterfeit Parts. No other Part other than a new and authentic Part shall be used unless approved in advance in writing by Buyer’s duly authorized representative. To further mitigate the possibility of the inadvertent use of Counterfeit Parts, Seller shall only purchase authentic parts/components directly from original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and original component manufacturers (“OCMs”) or through the OEM’s/OCM’s authorized distributors. Seller shall make available to Buyer, at Buyer’s request, OEM/OCM documentation that authenticates traceability of the Parts to the applicable OEM/OCM. Purchase of Parts from independent distributors is not authorized unless first approved in writing by Buyer’s duly authorized representative.

(c) Seller shall maintain a documented system (policy, procedure, or other documented approach) that provides for prior notification to Buyer and Buyer’s written approval before Parts are procured from sources other than OEMs/OCMs or through the OEM’s/OCM’s authorized distributors. Seller shall provide copies of such documentation for its system for Buyer’s inspection upon Buyer’s request. Seller’s system shall be consistent with applicable industry standards including, as a minimum, AS5553 for the detection and avoidance of Counterfeit Parts and Suspect Counterfeit Parts, including policies and procedures for training personnel, designing and maintaining systems to mitigate risks associated with parts obsolescence, making sourcing decisions, prioritizing mission critical and sensitive components, ensuring traceability of Parts, developing lists of trusted and non-trusted suppliers, flowing down requirements to subcontractors and suppliers, inspecting and testing parts, reporting and quarantining Counterfeit Parts and Suspect Counterfeit Parts, and taking corrective action.

(d) Acceptance of Buyer’s Order constitutes confirmation by Seller that it is the OEM, OCM, or a franchised or authorized distributor of the OEM/OCM for the Goods procured under Buyer’s Order. Seller further warrants that OEM/OCM acquisition documentation that authenticates traceability of the Parts is available upon request.

(e) Seller shall flow the requirements of this Section to its subcontractors and suppliers at any tier for the performance of Buyer’s Order.

(f) Should Seller become aware of a confirmed or suspect Counterfeit Part that, by any means, has been delivered to Buyer, or acquired for Buyer’s Order whether or not delivered to Buyer, Seller shall notify Buyer in writing as soon as possible but not later than five (5) days of such discovery. Seller shall verify receipt of this notification by Buyer. This requirement shall survive expiration or completion of Buyer’s Order.

(g) Seller shall be liable for cost of Counterfeit Parts and Suspect Counterfeit Parts and the cost of rework or corrective action that may be required by Buyer to remedy the use or inclusion of such Parts.

(h) Seller shall quarantine suspect counterfeit electronic parts and counterfeit electronic parts, and make them available for investigation by appropriate government authorities.
