  7.2 Distributor shall order Products from STAAR under this Agreement by submitting to STAAR a written purchase order specifying Products, quantities, and requested delivery dates to enable STAAR to fill the order. Each purchase order submitted to STAAR is subject to acceptance by STAAR at its offices to which such order was submitted. The purpose of the purchase order to be issued under this Agreement is for scheduling only; no terms and conditions of Distributor's purchase orders or any other document or instrument of Distributor shall be binding upon STAAR or amend or modify this Agreement in any manner, notwithstanding any language to the contrary contained in any such purchase order, instrument or document. Distributor should place its last order in each quarter by the tenth day of the last month in each quarter (e.g., March 10, June 10, September 10, and December 10). 7.3 During each Contract Year, as defined below, Distributor shall purchase from STAAR the minimum quantity of each Product that shall be mutually agreed between the parties in advance of the applicable Contract Year ("Minimum Product Quantities"). The Minimum Purchase Quantities for the Contract Year are as set forth on Exhibit B attached hereto. Within ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of each Contract Year, the parties will discuss in good faith and agree on the Minimum Product Quantities for the successive Contract Year; provided, however, that, if the parties fail to reach agreement on or otherwise specify the Minimum Purchase Quantities for the successive Contract Year, the Minimum Product Quantities for such successive Contract Year shall be __________ percent (___%) of the Minimum Purchase Quantities for the existing Contract Year. "Contract Year" means for the first Contract Year of the Agreement, the period commencing on the Effective Date hereof and ending one year thereafter and for subsequent Contract Years, the successive twelve (12) month period thereafter. Failure of Distributor to purchase the Minimum Purchase Quantities for any Contract Year, shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement. 8. Delivery 8.1 Delivery of all Products ordered by Distributor shall be made Ex Works at STAAR's export manufacturing or other facility or named shipping point as determined by STAAR. ICC INCOTERMS (2010 edition) shall apply, except insofar as these INCOTERMS may be inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. 8.2 In the event Distributor fails to take delivery and/or shipment of Products pursuant to the terms of this Agreement: (a) STAAR shall be entitled to store the Products in a warehouse at the expense and risk of Distributor; (b) the price of the Products shall become immediately due and payable by Distributor; and (c) after thirty (30) days from the date upon which the price becomes payable, STAAR may dispose of the Products in a commercially reasonable manner without notice to Distributor and recover any shortfall and related expenses from Distributor. 8.3 All Products ordered pursuant to accepted purchase orders shall be scheduled for delivery in accordance with STAAR's then current and normal delivery times.

  9. Warranty and Quality Control 9.1 STAAR warrants that, for the period of twelve (12) months from the date of delivery to Distributor hereunder (the "Warranty Period"), the Products will meet STAAR's published specifications or labeling for such Products as in effect at the time of such delivery ("Warranty"). To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and except as otherwise stated in this Agreement: (a) the foregoing Warranty is exclusive; and (b) all other terms, representations, undertakings, rights, remedies and warranties are excluded, whether express or implied (including but not limited to any warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or against infringement). To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the exclusive remedy for breach of the Warranty shall be, at STAAR's option, the repair or replacement, at STAAR's expense, of the non-conforming Product; provided that Distributor notifies STAAR of the non-conformity and returns the non-conforming Product within the Warranty Period. Products may only be returned by Distributor when accompanied by a return material authorization number issued by STAAR. Shipping expenses for Products returned by Distributor will be prepaid by Distributor. STAAR shall pay for the return or replacement shipment to Distributor of Products repaired or replaced under the Warranty. For Products returned for repair or replacement that are not covered under Warranty, STAAR's standard repair charges shall be applicable in addition to all shipping expenses. The above Warranty is contingent upon proper installation, use and maintenance of the Products and does not apply to Products which have been misused, mishandled, adulterated, repaired or modified without STAAR's written approval. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, STAAR shall not be responsible for any incidental or consequential loss, damage, or expense which arises directly or indirectly from the use of any Product. Without limiting the above, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Distributor's sole remedy in contract or in tort (including in negligence) and STAAR's liability shall be limited to the repair or replacement of any Product which is returned to and found to be defective or non-conforming by STAAR. 9.2 Distributor shall not make any representation or warranty as to the Products except for the warranty stated in Section 9.1 above. Distributor shall not alter the Products and shall not recommend or knowingly sell the Products for any uses except as described in STAAR's Product label and labeling and in accordance with the written instructions and warnings furnished by STAAR. Distributor agrees to deliver to its customers at or before sale all specifications, inserts, instructions, and warnings furnished by STAAR and to retain records evidencing such delivery. 10. Regulatory and Post-Market Surveillance Requirements 10.1 During the term of this Agreement and for at least ten (10) years thereafter, Distributor shall maintain records to allow for traceability of individual serial/lot numbers to customers for all sales of the Products. Upon request by STAAR, Distributor shall supply STAAR with a report of the information contained in such records. 10.2 In the event that STAAR deems it necessary to recall any Product, or any governmental authority requests recall of any Product distributed or sold by Distributor in the Territory, Distributor and STAAR shall cooperate fully with each other in effecting such recall, with an effort to reduce as much as possible the expense thereof and Distributor must notify STAAR of any contemplated or requested recalls as soon as possible (and at all times within any period required to notify any regulatory authority under applicable law) and prior to Distributor taking any steps to effect such a recall. Without limiting Distributor's obligations under law, as between Distributor and STAAR, the decision of whether or not to recall any Product shall be made solely by STAAR. Distributor shall notify all customers who received the recalled Product and shall record all receipts of Product returned under any recall. Distributor shall maintain copies of recall notification letters and maintain distribution logs that detail where each Product was shipped by Distributor.

Distributor will forward to STAAR any Complaint involving significant bodily injury, illness or death resulting from use of Products within one (1) calendar day of receipt and Distributor must notify STAAR of any such incident prior to issuing any notice required by law in respect of such incident (including those to be issued to governmental or regulatory authorities). Distributor shall forward to STAAR all other Complaints within five (5) calendar days of receipt. If any evaluation of Product involved in a Complaint by STAAR is necessary or appropriate, Distributor will use best efforts to retrieve the affected Product, if available, and return it to STAAR. STAAR will pay for the return shipment of such Product to STAAR. STAAR will be responsible for investigating all Complaints, determining if reporting to regulatory authorities in the Territory is required, and submitting such reports to regulatory authorities when required. The term "Complaints" as used in this Section 10.3 means any report, complaint or other communication received by Distributor (or its employees, contractors, agents or representatives) from end users of Products or their healthcare providers related to the safety or efficacy of the Products. 10.4 STAAR informs Distributor that Sections 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3 above are requirements of the Medical Device Directive (93/42/EEC), and that non-compliance by Distributor of these Sections will constitute grounds for STAAR to immediately cease supply of Products to Distributor and will be deemed a failure by Distributor to perform a material obligation, warranty, duty or responsibility hereunder. 10.5 Distributor acknowledges and agrees that it has full understanding of and shall duly observe and abide by any and all legal and regulatory requirements applicable to the import, commercialization, marketing, distribution or sale of Products in the Territory (collectively, "Regulatory Requirements"). Distributor further acknowledges and agrees that STAAR does not take any, and shall not be responsible for, any legal liability or responsibility for damages, costs or legal consequences that may result from any failure by Distributor to observe or comply with any Regulatory Requirements. 10.6 Distributor shall observe all transport and storage requirements and conditions applicable to the Products as indicated on any Product packaging. 11.

Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, Distributor shall transfer to STAAR (or its nominee) all right and title to all sponsorships or import licenses or permits governing the importation and resale of the Products into the Territory.

Distributor agrees that it will have no right or interest in said registrations and applications; that STAAR is and shall remain the exclusive owner of such registrations and applications free and clear of any claims by Distributor; and that Distributor shall make no claim to the same at any time during or after the term of this Agreement. Distributor shall respect such property rights of STAAR and comply with all local laws and regulations in respect thereof. Distributor shall also assist STAAR, at STAAR's request, in taking any steps necessary to defend such rights, and any reasonable expenses incurred in this regard by Distributor shall be reimbursed by STAAR. 11.3 Distributor shall at all times keep STAAR apprised of all Regulatory Requirements and any changes thereto and, on an annual basis, shall report to STAAR in writing of any such changes and confirm in such report that there have been no changes in any Regulatory Requirements other than as specified in the annual report. 11.4 Copies of all permits, licenses, sponsorships and registrations referred in Sections 11.1 and 11.2 shall be promptly forwarded to STAAR. 12. STAAR's Proprietary Information and Rights 12.1 Distributor recognizes and understands that all information not generally known concerning Company and the Products, including but not limited to Company's organization and business affairs, customer lists, sales information, operating procedures and practices, technical data, designs, software, know-how, trade secrets, and processes (the "Proprietary information"), whether owned by Company or licensed by Company from third parties, are subject to a valuable proprietary interest of Company, and that Distributor is under an obligation to maintain the confidentiality of such Proprietary Information. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing obligations, Distributor agrees that for the term of this Agreement and thereafter until such time as the Proprietary information is in the public domain, Distributor will (i) not disclose, publish or disseminate any Proprietary Information, (ii) not use any Proprietary Information for its own account, (iii) not authorize any other person to disclose, publish or disseminate the Proprietary information, and (iv) treat all Proprietary Information in a confidential manner, including appropriate marking and secure storage of written Proprietary Information. 12.2 No title or ownership of the software bundled or included with any Product ("Software") is transferred to Distributor, and such Software remains the proprietary property of Company.

  12.3 Distributor acknowledges that the Company is the owner and/or licensee in the Territory of the trademark(s) indicated on the Product packaging, advertising or promotional material or utilized in the sale of the Products (the "Trademarks"). During the term of this Agreement, Distributor is authorized to use the Trademarks solely in connection with Distributor's advertisement, promotion and distribution of the Products in the Territory. Whenever the Trademark is used, e.g., on any package, label or advertisement, the right or most prominent use shall always be accompanied by a legend acceptable to Company indicating that the Trademark is licensed to the Distributor by Company. 12.4 Distributor shall neither use nor permit others to use the name "STAAR", or any abbreviation or modification thereof, or the Trademarks or any other trademark or trade name of Company as part of the Distributor's firm name or corporate titles, in signs or in letterheads without the prior written consent of Company.

Thus, Distributor agrees that, in addition to any other remedy it may have, STAAR shall be entitled to enforce the specific performance of the obligations of Distributor under this Section and to seek both temporary and permanent injunctive relief (to the extent permitted by law) without the necessity of proving actual damages. Distributor shall be responsible for any breach of the provisions for this Section by any employee, agent or representative of Distributor. 13.
