restrictions set forth in this Article is not a Party to this Agreement, the

terms of this Article 4 shall apply to such person to the same extent as if he,

she or it were a Party hereto.

 

         4.4 Injunctive Relief. In the event of any breach or threatened breach

by any person of any provision of this Article 4, the Party harmed or likely to

be harmed by such breach or threatened breach shall be entitled to seek

injunctive or other equitable relief restraining such person from engaging in

conduct that would constitute a breach of the obligations of such person under

           ARTICLE 5 - APPOINTMENT AND EXCLUSIVE OLED MATERIAL SUPPLY

 

         5.1 Exclusive Appointment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this

Agreement, UDC hereby appoints PPG as its exclusive supplier of, and PPG hereby

agrees to manufacture and sell to UDC, all of UDC requirements for OLED

Chemicals that (i) are developed solely by UDC and are materials that UDC

intends during the Term to resell to third parties for their manufacture of

OLEDs for commercial sale; or (ii) are or were developed jointly by UDC and PPG

through Process Development work conducted hereunder or under the Development

Agreement (collectively, "Covered OLED Chemicals"). UDC shall not sell or

otherwise supply Covered OLED Chemicals for use in OLEDs, except those provided

by PPG to UDC hereunder.

 

         5.2 Exceptions. The obligations and restrictions under Section 5.1

above shall not apply under the following circumstances:

 

                  5.2.1 UDC's requirements for the Covered OLED Chemical are in

excess of such quantities as PPG is able to reasonably manufacture, alone or in

the aggregate with other Covered OLED Chemicals, using its current or

anticipated capital equipment and facilities. For each current Covered OLED

Chemical, such maximum quantity has been separately agreed to in writing by the

Parties and each of UDC and PPG agrees that such maximum quantity is sufficient

for UDC's reasonably foreseeable needs. For other Covered OLED Chemicals, or if

UDC's expected requirements for a current Covered OLED Chemical increase

substantially, the Parties shall discuss and in good faith endeavor to agree

upon a new or revised maximum quantity for the Covered OLED Chemical. If PPG is

to perform Process Development work on the Covered OLED Chemical, PPG shall

provide UDC with PPG's proposed maximum quantity for the Covered OLED Chemical

 

UDC and PPG Confidential                                           Page 19 of 66

<PAGE>

 

and the Parties shall endeavor to reach such agreement prior to or promptly

following UDC's request for PPG to commence such Process Development work. If

there is a problem that can be circumvented through PPG's outsourcing of any of

the manufacturing process steps, or through the purchase of a Third-Party OLED

Material, then the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue

such an alternative approach and the foregoing obligations and restrictions

shall continue to apply unless the Parties, despite their good faith efforts,

are unable to agree on a viable alternative.

 

                   5.2.2 PPG's pricing or projected pricing for commercial-scale

quantities of the Covered OLED Chemical is in excess of that which allows UDC to

resell the Covered OLED Chemical for a reasonable profit and UDC has good reason

to believe that it can obtain the Covered OLED Chemical from another source at

pricing that would enable UDC to resell the Covered OLED Chemical for such a

profit. For each current Covered OLED Chemical, PPG pricing or projected pricing

for commercial-scale quantities has been separately agreed to in writing by the

Parties and each of UDC and PPG agrees that such pricing or projected pricing is

currently sufficient for UDC to resell the Covered OLED Chemical for a

reasonable profit. For other Covered OLED Chemicals, or if the pricing at which

UDC is able to resell a current Covered OLED Chemical decreases substantially,

the Parties shall discuss and in good faith endeavor to agree upon new or

revised pricing or projected pricing for commercial-scale quantities of the

Covered OLED Chemical. If PPG is to perform Process Development work on the

Covered OLED Chemical, PPG shall provide UDC with PPG's projected pricing for

commercial-scale quantities of the Covered OLED Chemical and the Parties shall

endeavor to reach such agreement prior to or promptly following UDC's request

for PPG to commence such Process Development work. If there is a problem that

can be circumvented through PPG's outsourcing of any of the manufacturing

process steps, or through the purchase of a Third-Party OLED Material, then the

Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue such an alternative

approach and the foregoing obligations and restrictions shall continue to apply

unless the Parties, despite their good faith efforts, are unable to agree on a

viable alternative.

 

                  5.2.3 PPG is regularly unable to provide commercial-scale

quantities of the Covered OLED Chemical that meet its corresponding Material

Specifications and pass UDC's OLED device qualification testing and the Parties,

despite their good faith efforts, are unable to timely agree upon and implement

a plan for the situation to be remedied. If there is a problem that can be

circumvented through PPG's outsourcing of any of the manufacturing process

steps, or through the purchase of a Third-Party OLED Material, then the Parties

shall use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue such an alternative approach

and the foregoing obligations and restrictions shall continue to apply unless

the Parties, despite their good faith efforts, are unable to agree on a viable

alternative.

 

                  5.2.4 The Covered OLED Chemical cannot be manufactured by PPG

and supplied to UDC for resale to third parties for use in OLEDs without

infringing or otherwise violating the Patent or other proprietary rights of a

third party.

 

UDC and PPG Confidential                                           Page 20 of 66

         5.3       Other OLED Chemical Sales by PPG.

 

                  5.3.1 During the Term and for [The confidential material

contained herein has been omitted and has been separately filed with the

Commission.] thereafter, PPG shall not sell or supply Products or Evaluation

OLED Chemicals to persons other than UDC, or assist or authorize any other

person to sell or supply Products or Evaluation OLED Chemicals to persons other

than UDC.

 

                  5.3.2 During the Term and for [The confidential material

contained herein has been omitted and has been separately filed with the

Commission.] thereafter, PPG shall not sell or supply Competitive OLED Chemicals

for any OLED-related uses to persons other than UDC, or assist or authorize any

other person to sell or supply Competitive OLED Chemicals for any OLED uses to

persons other than UDC.

 

                  5.3.3 Should PPG, during the Term or within [The confidential

material contained herein has been omitted and has been separately filed with

the Commission.] thereafter, learn that any person to whom PPG is selling any

Competitive OLED Chemical for non-OLED uses is using such OLED Chemical for OLED

uses, PPG agrees to immediately cease supplying such person with such OLED

Chemical unless otherwise agreed in writing by UDC. Nothing in this Agreement,

by implication or otherwise, authorizes PPG to use any UDC Proprietary Materials

for Chemicals and/or any Confidential Information of UDC in manufacturing,

purifying, analyzing or distributing Products, Evaluation OLED Chemicals or

Competitive OLED Chemicals to persons other than UDC, either during or following

the Term.
