(all of the foregoing percentages, the “ Cancellation Threshold ”). For any quantity of Products cancelled in excess of the Cancellation Threshold, AMO’s and its Affiliates’ entire liability and the Supplier’s exclusive remedy for such cancellation shall be payment by AMO or its Affiliates to Supplier of a Cancellation Claim as provided herein below. Within ***** from the date of Supplier’s receipt of a Cancellation Notice, the Supplier shall submit a claim to AMO (or its Affiliate, if the Cancellation Notice was issued by such Affiliate), in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals, setting forth the price of any finished Products subject to the cancellation in excess of the Cancellation Threshold, and the following costs, if any, actually incurred by the Supplier as a result of cancellation in excess of the Cancellation Threshold: (i) the cost of work in progress (including labor performed); (ii) the cost of materials and components that could not be returned, reused or sold, (iii) the net loss on the sale of materials and components, and (iv) applicable restocking or cancellation fees charged to the Supplier by material and component vendors in an amount not to exceed ***** of the Supplier’s cost for such returned materials and components (all of the foregoing, a “ Cancellation Claim ”). All such costs included in a Cancellation Claim shall be at the Supplier’s actual cost without markup or profit. The amount of each Cancellation Claim shall be reduced by (a) any payments made to the Supplier on account of the cancelled purchase order, or any cancelled portion thereof, (b) any claims that AMO or its Affiliates may have against the Supplier, and (c) any net gain on the sale of materials and components as a result of cancellation. In no event shall the amount of any Cancellation Claim exceed the purchase price (as set forth in the applicable purchase order) for the quantities of each Product cancelled, and only to the extent such quantities are in excess of the Cancellation Threshold. The Supplier shall make its premises available to AMO and its Affiliates, and any independent third party designated by AMO or its Affiliates (whose expenses shall be borne by AMO or the Affiliate concerned) and approved by the Supplier (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), at any time after the Supplier’s receipt of a Cancellation Notice for the purpose of inspection of the Supplier’s inventory, work in progress, books, records, documents and other evidence bearing on the Cancellation Claim. If the Supplier fails to submit a Cancellation Claim within ***** from the date of the Supplier’s receipt of a Cancellation Notice, AMO (or its Affiliate, if the Cancellation Notice was issued by such Affiliate) may independently determine the Cancellation Claim due the Supplier, if any, and such determination shall be final.
