  2.10 Report. Eutectix shall provide a report to Liquidmetal accompanying the Liquidmetal Royalty and Liquidmetal Commission stating whether the sales were to an Affiliate, the Net Sales Price actually received and the amount of Liquidmetal Royalty and Liquidmetal Commission due and owing. 3. ORDERS: PRICING, PAYMENT TERMS, AND CAPACITY. 3.1 Pricing. During the Term of this Agreement, Liquidmetal may from time to time purchase from Eutectix such "Liquidmetal Products" as specifically described in a purchase order issued by Liquidmetal (an "Order") to Eutectix at the prices set forth in the Order (the "Prices").

Prices (a) are in U.S. Dollars, (b) include Eutectix's standard packaging, and (c) are based on the configuration set forth in the specifications provided to Eutectix by Liquidmetal (the "Specifications"). Consistent with Section 2.6 above, from the Effective Date, the Prices shall include zero U.S. dollars ($0.00) input materials cost factor for all Orders requiring LM 105 Alloy and 106C Alloy input materials until the earlier of the third anniversary of the Effective Date, or the date upon which Liquidmetal has consumed alloy, including revert (assuming the Transferred Alloy revert is suitable for use in such Orders), equivalent to the respective quantities listed in Section 2.2 above. 3.2 Payment Terms. Eutectix may issue an invoice for Liquidmetal Products any time after the shipment thereof to Liquidmetal. Payment terms are net 30 days after the date of the invoice, or the date of receipt by Liquidmetal of the invoice if the invoice is received more than 10 days after the date of the invoice. Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Order or as otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, payment shall be made in U.S. Dollars. 3.3 Cost Reduction. Eutectix will work diligently with Liquidmetal in an effort to reduce waste, enhance productivity, and decrease Prices through reductions in the cost of producing Liquidmetal Products, all without adversely impacting quality or delivery times. Throughout the term of this Agreement, Eutectix and Liquidmetal will work cooperatively and take advantage of cost saving technologies and other cost reduction opportunities to assist in maintaining a competitive cost position. The Parties shall meet on a quarterly basis to discuss specific cost reduction and productivity enhancement activities (collectively, the "Activities"). In support of these efforts, Liquidmetal shall provide to Eutectix its own estimates of direct sales costs, including commissions, inspections, modifications, inventory, repackaging, shipping/receiving, duties & tariffs, warranty services, and current overhead rates. Notwithstanding any such estimates Liquidmetal may provide, Eutectix shall set Prices in accordance with its known costs and margins. 7
