If, during Buyer’s inspection procedures, a good delivered hereunder is discovered to be a Counterfeit Item or Suspect Counterfeit Item, Buyer shall have the right to quarantine the good for further investigation of its authenticity. Buyer’s investigation may include the participation of third parties or governmental investigative agencies as required by law or regulations by Buyer’s customer, or by Buyer, in its sole discretion. The Seller and/or the Seller’s lower-tier subcontractors shall cooperate in good faith with any investigation conducted by Buyer, including, but not limited to, cooperation by Seller’s or Seller’s lower-tier subcontractor’s staffs responsible for the maintenance and disclosure of all design, development, manufacturing, and traceability records with respect to the good in possession of Seller or Seller’s lower-tier subcontractor. Upon Buyer’s request, Seller shall provide Buyer certificates of conformance with respect to the goods delivered. Buyer shall not be required to return the good to the Seller during the investigation process or thereafter. Buyer shall not be liable for payment to Seller of the price of any Suspect Counterfeit Items under investigation. When so authorized by Buyer, Seller shall be responsible for counterfeit risk mitigation testing and providing traceability identifiers (i.e.

Date Code / Lot Code, Serial number) for Broker procured parts, and identifying items delivered to Buyer that contain such parts. If Buyer determines in its sole discretion that there is credible evidence after visual inspection, testing, or other information that a good delivered under this Contract may have been misrepresented by the Seller or Seller’s lower-tier subcontractor and constitutes a Counterfeit Item or Suspect Counterfeit Item, Seller, or its lower-tier subcontractor, shall, if directed by Buyer to do so, issue a GIDEP alert and shall ensure suspect or confirmed Counterfeit Items are not delivered to Buyer. Buyer reserves its right hereunder, to issue its own GIDEP alert if, after investigation, Buyer concludes, in its sole estimation, that a good is a Counterfeit Item or Suspect Counterfeit Item. Seller shall include the substance of this Section in any agreement between Seller and Seller’s lower tier subcontractors, including in any agreement between Seller and Seller’s Broker, and Seller shall cause Seller’s lower tier subcontractors and

Seller’s Broker to include the substance of this Section in all agreements with any of their lower tier subcontractors.
