Effective as of April 7, 2013

 

SolarEdge Technologies, Ltd.

Att.: Guy Sella, CEO

6 Haharash st., Hod Hasharon

Israel

 

Dear Guy,

 

We appreciate very much your choice of Flextronics Industrial Ltd., having its place of business at Level 3, Alexander House,35 Cybercity, Ebene, Mauritius (“Flextronics”) as manufacturing partner of SolarEdge Technologies, Ltd., having its place of business at 6 Haharash st., Hod Hasharon, Israel (formerly 1 Abba Eban Blvd., Herzliya, Israel) (“Customer” or “You”).  We look forward to completing an amendment to the manufacturing services agreement signed between You and Flextronics (Israel) Ltd and dated February 14, 2010 (“MSA”), which will obligate Flextronics Industrial Ltd.  and SolarEdge Technologies, Ltd. , within the next few months and which will describe in more detail the structure and terms that will govern our relationship .  We understand, however, that the negotiation of such an MSA amendment might take some time, and that market pressures require that we begin purchasing components, parts and raw material (collectively “Materials”) and commence other preproduction activities immediately. Under these circumstances we are willing to start purchasing Materials and production preparation activities, based on the terms herein, all in an effort to cover the exposure and liabilities related to the purchase of Materials approved by you for WIP and finished goods, incurred on your behalf as we initiate the launch of this project.  Further, as you know, we have agreed with Flextronics Israel that we will coordinate directly with them for the transfer of Materials and all production means (training, tooling, test equipment, etc.) from Flextronics Israel to our manufacturing facility.  Customer shall pay at agreed then-current rates (i) for New Product Introduction (“NPI”) output and (ii) for NRE cost related to NPI activities, including travel, tools and trainings, based on Attachment A of this Interim Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Flextronics shall provide a full list of estimated expenses before any costs are incurred. No costs shall be incurred unless the Customer agrees to such costs upfront and in writing.  We will coordinate with Flextronics Israel so that you will be charged only once for material overhead of all Materials and production that is moved from Israel to Zalaegerszeg, Hungary.

 

You have asked us to, among other things, procure Materials, and manufacture, assemble, test, inspect, configure and ship the certain products (the “Products”) at prices upon which we have agreed (the “Prices”).  The Products and Prices which are based on an initial bill of Materials (“BOM”) provided by you are listed in Attachment B.  We understand that this BOM is subject to change but that the model set forth therein for pricing shall bind us. We also understand that in the event that we or You negotiate improved pricing on Materials you will benefit from this (i.e PPV). In addition, the model takes into account that you will purchase portions of the Materials (the “Buy Sell Materials”) and we will take them on consignment. Payment for any Buy Sell Materials may only be recovered from Flextronics (or any of its assignees) by way of set off, if and when available to You from time to time. Prices are in U.S. Dollars, and are subject to change on thirty (30) calendar days’ notice.  Prices are based on (i) the specifications provided to Flextronics, (ii) the projected volumes and run rates and other assumptions set forth in Flextronics’s quotation (assumptions based on the times provided by Customer to Flextronics, provided that Flextronics shall endeavour to reach such manufacturing times within six (6) months from the beginning of manufacturing at its premises located in Zalaegerszeg, Hungary, (iii) shipment FCA

 



 

(Incoterms 2010) on Carrier Truck at Zrinyi u. 38., H-8900 Zalaegerszeg, Hungary; and (v) the exchange rates in effect at the time of quotation.  Prices specifically exclude export licensing of the Product; payment of broker’s fees, duties, tariffs or other similar charges; taxes (other than those based on the net income of Flextronics)   Payment terms are net forty-five (45) calendar days after the date of the invoice, and any late payment is subject to a one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month interest rate charge. All Products shipped FCA (Incoterms 2010) on Carrier Truck at Zrinyi u. 38., H-8900 Zalaegerszeg, Hungary, will be invoiced by Flextronics with 0% VAT, in accordance with the regulations applicable to intra-community supplies, provided that (i) Customer indicates Flextronics a valid EU VAT number, that is validated in VIES, and/ or (ii) Customer ensures that Customer’s carrier provides Flextronics with a separate signed and stamped CMR for each shipment within seven (7) calendar days from the receipt of Products by Customer at Flextronics’s facility of manufacture. Flextronics will have the right to issue a new invoice for the delivered Products including Hungarian VAT in case Flextronics is not provided with a separate signed and stamped CMR for the shipment of the respective Products within seven (7) calendar days from the receipt of Products by Customer at Flextronics’s facility of manufacture.

SMT component misalignment on Off Pad <50% 2. TH component solder fill-up >75% and (ii) that the Products will conform, in all material respects, to the written Specifications. The “Specifications” for each Product or revision thereof, shall include, but shall not be limited to BOM, designs, schematics, assembly drawings, process documentation, test specifications, current revision number, and approved vendor list.  The above warranty shall remain in effect for a period of [***] from the date any Product is initially delivered to Customer (“Warranty Period”).

 

This express limited warranty does not apply to (a) Customer tooling (b) Materials and/or Customer controlled Materials and/or Customer supplied inventory and/or consigned Materials to Flextronics; (c) defects resulting from Customer’s Specifications or the design of the Products; and (d) Product that has been abused, damaged, altered or misused by any person or entity after title passes to Customer.  With respect to NPI services, first articles, prototypes, pre-production units, test units or other similar Products, Flextronics makes no representations or warranties whatsoever.  Notwithstanding anything else in this Interim Agreement or otherwise, Flextronics assumes no liability for or obligation related to the performance accuracy of the Specifications or defects of or due to tooling, designs or instructions produced or supplied by Customer and Customer shall be liable for all costs and/or expenses incurred by Flextronics related thereto.

 

Upon any failure of a Product to comply with the above warranty, Flextronics’s sole obligation, and Customer’s sole remedy, is for Flextronics, at its option, to promptly repair or replace such unit and return it to Customer, freight from point of original delivery to be paid by Flextronics within fourteen (14) working days from the date of the completion of a failure report by the Customer.  Customer shall return Products covered by the warranty after completing a failure report and obtaining a return material authorization number from Flextronics to be displayed on the shipping container.

 

Customer shall bear all risks, costs and expenses, associated with Products that have been returned to Flextronics not covered under the warranty above.  Customer will provide its own warranties directly to any of its end users or other third parties.  Customer will not pass through to end users or other third parties the warranties made by Flextronics under this Interim Agreement. Furthermore, Customer will not make any representations to end users or other third parties on behalf of Flextronics, and Customer will not pass on any rights out of this Interim Agreement to its customers.

List of items charged on top of product cost

 

·                              SE sees the following expenses covered in the product cost:

 

·                              BOM is ‘clean’, i.e representing landed cost, all costs are covered by freight-in

 

·                              SMT related — masks, S/W, setup

 

·                              Standard consumables — degreasing and coating material, solder paste

 

·                              General OH requests due to overtime invested in peaks

 

·                              Non-compliance to specific work station times should be closed quarterly in PL (for better and worse)

 

·                              Technician costs for debug and repair

 

·                              RM storage

 

·                              Fulfillment activities

 

·                              SE will pay for:

 

·                              ICT — SW NRE and test boards

 

·                              Special jigs improving throughput

 

·                              Unique consumables — potting material (inside the BOM) or other

 

·                              SE machinery maintenance

 

·                              Special requests for overtime and/or weekend shifts

 

·                              NPI
