Valid as of 5/1/2026

"Buyer" means Enercon Engineering, LLC, or its affiliated companies. "Supplier" means the party selling the applicable products and/or services (collectively, “Deliverables”) to Buyer. Buyer and Supplier are each designated as a “Party” and, collectively, the “Parties.” References to "Deliverables" include items specifically provided for in the Purchase Agreement (as defined below) or incorporated in services Buyer purchases from Supplier. By selling the Deliverables to Buyer, Supplier confirms that the following terms and conditions apply to Buyer's purchases (these “Terms”). Any modifications to these Terms must be in writing and signed by Buyer.

  1. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PURCHASE. (a) Governing Terms. Any Deliverables Buyer purchases from Supplier by electronic, phone, paper or any other form of transmission, are purchased subject to the following: (i) if Supplier already has a written agreement signed by both Parties covering the sale of the Deliverables currently in effect with Buyer, then the terms of that agreement, together with these Terms, to the extent these Terms are not in conflict with such signed agreement, constitute the complete agreement; or (ii) if Supplier does not already have a fully signed agreement with Buyer, then these Terms constitute the complete agreement. The complete agreement, as described in Sections 1(a)(i) and 1(a)(ii) above, shall be referred to as the "Purchase Agreement". Any other terms or conditions proposed by Supplier which differ from or are in addition to the Purchase Agreement, including, without limitation, Supplier’s standard printed terms and conditions, whether printed on Supplier’s proposal, order acknowledgement, invoice or otherwise, are hereby deemed to be material alterations and shall not have any application to any purchase between Buyer and Supplier unless specifically accepted in writing by Buyer.

  1. Assignment and Subcontracting. Supplier may not assign or subcontract its obligations under the Purchase Agreement without the prior written consent of Buyer, and if Supplier does so, the assignment or subcontract will be void. Buyer may assign the Purchase Agreement, or any of its rights or obligations hereunder, to any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or to any purchaser of, or successor to, all or substantially all of the assets of Buyer's business or of the division/product line to which the Purchase Agreement relates, without Supplier’s consent.

  2. Waiver. Buyer’s rights or remedies set forth in the Purchase Agreement are not exclusive and shall be cumulative and in addition to all other legal or equitable rights or remedies available under applicable law. Buyer’s failure at any time to enforce any right or remedy available to it under the Purchase Agreement, or otherwise, shall not be construed as a waiver of such right or remedy.

  3. Governing Law; Venue; Jurisdiction. The Purchase Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Wisconsin. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with the Purchase Agreement shall be adjudicated in federal or state courts located in the State of Wisconsin. Each Party specifically waives all objections to such jurisdiction and venue. Neither the Purchase Agreement nor sales hereunder will be governed by the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

  4. Forecasts. Buyer may provide Supplier with forecasts of its future anticipated Deliverable requirements. Supplier acknowledges that any such forecasts, including, without limitation, estimated annual volumes, are for informational purposes only and are nonbinding. Buyer makes no representation, warranty, guaranty or commitment of any kind or nature, express or implied, regarding any such forecasts, including, without limitation, with respect to the accuracy or completeness of such forecasts.

  5. Spare and Replacement Parts. In return for Buyer agreeing to enter into the Purchase Agreement, Supplier grants to Buyer an option during the term of such Purchase Agreement and for ten (10) years thereafter to purchase component parts of any Deliverables, including those which become obsolete during the term of such Purchase Agreement, at the lowest price at which Supplier sells such parts. Prices for such parts shall be firm, at the last pre-termination price or pre-obsolescence price, as applicable, for the first five (5) years following the termination of such Purchase Agreement or obsolescence of such Deliverable, as applicable, except for and only to the extent changes are required by cost differences in packaging.

  1. PRICING; PAYMENT. (a) Prices. Unless otherwise provided elsewhere in the Purchase Agreement, prices are: (i) as stated in the Purchase Agreement, (ii) in U.S. dollars; (iii) not subject to increase for the duration of the Purchase Agreement; and (iii) DDP (INCOTERMS 2020) at a facility specified by Buyer, unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties in writing. No extra charges of any kind will be allowed unless specifically agreed to by Buyer in writing.

  1. Invoices. Supplier shall issue an invoice to Buyer on or after the completion of delivery and only in accordance with this Purchase Agreement which shall reference the purchase or sales order number. Unless prohibited by law, Supplier will separately indicate on its invoices any taxes or customs duties imposed on the sale or delivery of the Deliverables. At any time, Buyer may set off any liability or amount owed by Supplier to Buyer or any of its affiliated companies against any amount payable at any time by Buyer under the Purchase Agreement.

  2. Invoice Schedule. Payment terms shall be on the next scheduled twice-monthly payment date ninety (90) days following the date of Buyer's receipt of conforming invoice and related Deliverables in accordance with Section 3(c) below.

  3. Preferential Pricing. Supplier warrants that it is selling the Deliverables at the lowest prices and upon the most favorable terms (including, without limitation, volume, quality and/or payment terms) that it offers any buyer for Deliverables of the same or similar quality and volume to that provided for in the Purchase Agreement. If, during the term of the Purchase Agreement, Supplier makes an offer to sell any such Deliverables to a third party at a lower price or upon one or more terms that are more favorable than the price or terms then applicable under the Purchase Agreement, Supplier shall notify Buyer of the same and an equivalent reduction or modification of terms will apply to all Deliverables purchased thereafter for the balance of the term of the Purchase Agreement.

  4. Market Competitiveness. If at any time during the term of the Purchase Agreement a third party makes a competitive offer to sell Deliverables pursuant to one or more terms (including price, volume, quality and/or payment terms) that are more favorable to Buyer than the terms then in effect under the Purchase Agreement (the “Favorable Terms”), and Buyer chooses to notify Supplier of such Favorable Terms, then Supplier will meet, or notify Buyer that it will not meet, such Favorable Terms within fourteen (14) days of receipt of Buyer's notice thereof. Supplier's failure to meet such Favorable Terms within such fourteen (14) day period shall be deemed a decision not to meet such Favorable Terms regardless of whether Supplier specifically notifies Buyer thereof. If Buyer is obligated under the Purchase Agreement to buy certain quantities of Deliverables from Supplier and Supplier does not meet the Favorable Terms, Buyer will be released from its obligations to Supplier, if any, with respect to any quantities of Deliverables available from the third party on such Favorable Terms.

  5. Responsibility for Taxes. Buyer will be responsible for all sales, use, and similar taxes (excluding taxes based on or measured by the net income, net worth or gross receipts of Supplier) imposed as a result of the sale of Deliverables. With notice to Supplier, Buyer may pay such taxes directly to the taxing authority where allowed by law. Supplier shall remit all taxes paid by Buyer to the appropriate taxing authority. Upon Buyer's request, Supplier will provide written evidence that Supplier is properly licensed to collect the taxes paid by Buyer.

  6. Minimum Purchase Requirements. If the Purchase Agreement obligates Buyer to buy a percentage of its Deliverable requirements from Supplier, reasonable amounts of Deliverables purchased from a third-party supplier for purposes of qualifying such Deliverables shall be deemed excluded from Buyer's requirements and can be used by Buyer for commercial production and sale so long as Buyer reasonably determines that the quality, timing or other terms of purchase of Deliverables from Supplier hereunder are not likely to meet the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

  1. DELIVERY. (a) Time is of the Essence. Delivery dates are firm and TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE WITH RESPECT TO DELIVERY. Supplier will immediately notify Buyer in writing of any actual or potential delivery delays, and will use all commercially reasonable efforts to meet the required delivery date. Buyer has no obligation to accept deliveries that are not made on the required delivery date. If Supplier fails to meet a required delivery date, Buyer may replace such Deliverables with goods from a third party and charge Supplier the cost thereof and terminate this Purchase Agreement for cause in accordance with Section 17 of this Purchase Agreement. Supplier will indemnify Buyer for all costs Buyer incurs as a result of early or late deliveries. If Supplier has to use premium freight, then, in addition to any agreed upon Supplier-paid freight expenses, Supplier will be responsible for any incremental costs associated with shipping via premium freight and will notify Buyer in writing of the type and monetary value of the premium freight used (for Buyer’s records).

  1. Packaging. Supplier shall, at its expense, package and preserve the Deliverables according to Buyer’s instructions to ensure receipt of the Deliverables in an undamaged condition or, if no such instructions exist, according to Buyer’s packaging guidelines, which are available at https://www.generac.com/about/supplier-support/, as may be amended by Buyer from time to time.

If inspection or testing is conducted on Supplier’s premises, Supplier will provide or make available to Buyer, without charge, all reasonable facilities and assistance required for the inspection and tests. Supplier will maintain an inspection and testing system for the same that is acceptable to Buyer and will keep records of all inspection and testing data and, with respect to Deliverables, samples of each lot shipped, for two (2) years after delivery. Unless otherwise agreed by Buyer in writing, Supplier will deliver to Buyer a certificate of analysis as to specifications approved by Buyer with respect to each product lot shipped.

  2. WARRANTIES; REMEDIES. (a) Warranties by Supplier. Supplier warrants that all Deliverables will be: (i) free of any claims by third parties, including but not limited to any claims that the Deliverables, or the use thereof, will in any way infringe or contribute to the infringement of any intellectual property right in the United States or elsewhere, and no claim, action or suit alleging any such infringement or contribution to infringement is pending or threatened against Supplier, its employees, agents, suppliers or contractors; (ii) free of any open source software or other third party software that imposes any obligations or conditions on Buyer’s intellectual property or confidential information; (iii) free of any Harmful Code (as defined below) and that Supplier will not introduce any Harmful Code to Buyer through data transmission or other medium; (iv) in strict accordance with the specifications, samples, drawings or other descriptions approved by Buyer in writing; (v) merchantable; (vi) free from defects in design, materials and workmanship; and (vii) to the extent that Buyer relies on Supplier to specify the Deliverables, fit for their intended purpose.

Insurance will not be deemed effective until satisfactory certificates thereof and required endorsements are delivered to Buyer, containing provisions requiring the insurance carrier to notify Buyer at least thirty (30) days prior to any expiration or termination of, or material change to, the policy. Supplier will also require insurance from all of its subcontractors with the same coverages and limits.

It is agreed that Supplier, in rendering any services on Buyer’s (or Buyer’s customer’s) premises, will be an independent contractor and that neither Supplier nor any principal, partner, agent or employee of Supplier is the legal representative of Buyer for any purpose whatsoever and has no right or authority to assume or create, by action, in writing or otherwise, any obligation of any kind, express or implied, in the name of or on behalf of Buyer and neither Supplier nor any principal, agent or employee of Supplier shall be entitled to or be eligible to participate in any benefit program extended by Buyer to its employees.

  2. Authorization of Supplier Personnel. All Supplier’s employees providing services under the Purchase Agreement must be authorized to work in the jurisdiction where the services are performed.

  1. INDEMNIFICATION.

In the event of an infringement of any third party’s intellectual property rights by the Deliverables, Supplier at its own expense shall procure the right for Buyer to continue using the Deliverables, modify the Deliverables so that they become non-infringing without incurring a material diminution in function in Buyer’s reasonable estimation or replace the Deliverables at no cost to Buyer with non-infringing substitutes provided that the substitutes do not entail a material diminution in function in Buyer’s reasonable estimation. Supplier agrees to include this Indemnification provision in any subcontracts issued in connection with the Purchase Agreement.

  2. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, AND IRRESPECTIVE OF ANY FAULT, NEGLIGENCE, OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF ANY KIND, IN NO EVENT SHALL BUYER OR ANY OF ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO SELLER FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, RELIANCE, PUNITIVE OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL BASIS OF LIABILITY OR LEGAL OR EQUITABLE PRINCIPLE INVOLVED.

  3. BUYER PROPERTY. Unless Buyer otherwise agrees in writing, all tools, equipment, or other materials furnished to Supplier by Buyer or made, purchased, or otherwise obtained by Supplier at Buyer’s expense are the personal property of Buyer (“Buyer Property”) and Supplier waives any statutory or other rights to claim a lien on such Buyer Property. Whenever practical, Supplier will adequately identify Buyer Property as such, maintain it in good condition, and safely store it separate and apart from Supplier’s property. Supplier will not substitute any property for Buyer Property and will use such property only in fulfilling its obligations under the Purchase Agreement. While in Supplier’s custody or control, Buyer Property will be held at Supplier’s risk, kept insured by Supplier at Supplier’s expense, and subject to removal at Buyer’s request. Supplier is responsible for any loss, damage, or destruction of Buyer Property and any loss, damage or destruction of any third-party property resulting from Supplier’s negligent use or willful misuse of Buyer Property. Buyer makes no representations and disclaims all warranties with respect to the condition or quality of the Buyer Property. Supplier is responsible for inspecting and determining that Buyer Property is in usable and acceptable condition. Supplier will participate in programs implemented by Buyer with respect to the condition and remaining life of Buyer Property, including, but not limited to, participation in programs related to Buyer’s Tooling Asset Management System. Supplier agrees to provide Buyer updates in writing detailing the condition and remaining life of each piece of Buyer Property on an annual basis, at a minimum, unless more frequent updates are requested by Buyer. In addition to the foregoing, Supplier shall promptly notify Buyer of the occurrence of any event that materially affects the condition and/or remaining life of any Buyer Property.

  4. SET-OFF. At any time, Buyer may set off any liability or amount owed by Supplier to Buyer or any of its affiliated companies against any amount payable at any time by Buyer under the Purchase Agreement.

  5. FORCE MAJEURE. (a) Definition. Any non-performance or delay in performance of any obligation of the Parties under the Purchase Agreement will be excused to the extent such failure or non-performance is caused by a Force Majeure Event (defined herein)/ "Force Majeure Event" means any (a) acts of God; (b) flood, fire, sabotage, shipwreck, earthquake, or explosion; (c) war, invasion, hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot or other civil unrest; (d) government order, law, or action; (e) embargoes or blockades in effect on or after the date of this Agreement; (f) national or regional emergency; (g) pandemic or epidemic; (h) strikes, labor stoppages or slowdowns or other industrial disturbances; (i) telecommunication breakdowns, power outages or shortages; and (j) other similar events beyond the reasonable control of a Party. In no event shall Supplier's ability to sell Deliverables at a better price or Supplier's economic hardship in buying or otherwise accessing raw materials necessary to manufacture Deliverables at a commercially reasonable price constitute a Force Majeure Event.

  1. Notice & Remedy. If Buyer or Supplier is affected by the Force Majeure Event, it will (i) provide notice to the other Party as soon as possible, but in any event no more than five (5) days following the occurrence of the Force Majeure Event, explaining the full particulars and the expected duration of the Force Majeure Event and (ii) use its best efforts to remedy the interruption or delay if it is reasonably capable of being remedied. In the event of a Force Majeure Event, deliveries or acceptance of deliveries of Deliverables that have been suspended will not be required to be made up on the resumption of performance and, to the extent not otherwise permitted under the Purchase Agreement, Buyer will have the right to purchase Deliverables from other sources during the period of Force Majeure Event; provided, however, if Buyer is unable to purchase Deliverables from other sources during the period of Force Majeure Event, Supplier shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly make up the suspended deliveries upon resumption of performance. If, in the reasonable determination of Buyer, a Force Majeure Event extends for more than sixty (60) days, the Purchase Agreement may be terminated upon written notice by the Party not declaring the Force Majeure Event without any liability on its part.

  2. Allocations. If a Force Majeure Event compels Supplier to allocate deliveries of Deliverables, Supplier will (i) provide Buyer with prompt written notice, but in any event, no more than five (5) days following the occurrence of the Force Majeure Event, and any other information requested by Buyer related to the estimated allocation made available for Buyer, and (ii) make such allocation in a manner that ensures Buyer at least the same proportion of Supplier’s total output as was purchased by Buyer prior to the Force Majeure Event. Supplier will use best efforts to source Deliverables or other items, at Supplier’s expense, from its own or its affiliates’ global operations or the market in order to meet Buyer’s required delivery dates. Unless otherwise provided by Buyer in writing, neither Buyer’s acceptance of Supplier’s allocation nor Buyer’s failure to respond to Supplier’s written allocation notice shall result in a termination or other modification of the ordered quantities.

  1. TERMINATION. (a) Termination for Convenience, Right to Suspend.  Buyer may terminate the Purchase Agreement, or suspend or terminate any purchase order thereunder, at any time, for its convenience and in whole or in part, by any reasonable manner.  If Buyer terminates a Purchase Agreement or any purchase order thereunder for its convenience, Supplier’s sole claim shall be for the costs it reasonably incurred in the performance of the Purchase Agreement or purchase order (as applicable) prior to such termination, with due allowance for the salvage value of all Deliverables after Buyer has had full opportunity to recommend disposition and audit Supplier’s costs.  If Buyer suspends a purchase order hereunder, Supplier shall promptly suspend further performance of such purchase order to the extent specified and during the period of such suspension shall properly care for and protect all work in progress and materials Supplier has on hand for performance of such purchase order.  Buyer may at any time withdraw the suspension of performance to Supplier and Supplier shall resume diligent performance of the work.  If Supplier believes that any such suspension or withdrawal of suspension justifies modification of the purchase order price, Supplier shall promptly submit to Buyer a written claim for such modification.  Supplier’s claim shall substantiate Supplier’s increased costs with invoices and other documents satisfactory to Buyer.  Upon Buyer’s verification and approval of such additional costs, Buyer and Supplier shall agree upon an adjustment in the purchase order price based upon such costs as full settlement to Supplier for the suspension and withdrawal of suspension.  IN NO EVENT SHALL SUPPLIER BE ENTITLED TO ANY PROSPECTIVE PROFITS OR ANY DAMAGES DUE TO TERMINATION, SUSPENSION OR WITHDRAWALS OF SUSPENSION. 

(b) Termination for Cause. Buyer or Supplier may terminate the Purchase Agreement or any purchase order thereunder upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice if the other Party breaches any material term thereof or immediately if the other Party is adjudged bankrupt, is insolvent, or makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors. During such notice period, if applicable, the Party in default may cure its default and thereby abate the termination. In the event Supplier is noncompliant with Sections 7, 8 or 9 above, Buyer shall have the right to immediately terminate the Purchase Agreement or any purchase order thereunder, without further compensation to Supplier and without Supplier’s ability to abate the termination. In addition, Supplier shall compensate Buyer for any damages suffered by Buyer as a result of Supplier’s breach of Sections 7, 8 or 9 above. After receipt of a notice of termination, Supplier shall immediately: (i) stop work as directed in the notice; (ii) place no further subcontracts or purchase orders for materials, services or facilities, except as necessary to complete a continued portion of the Purchase Agreement; and (iii) terminate all subcontracts to the extent that they relate to the work terminated. In addition, Buyer may procure substitute Deliverables and Supplier will be liable to Buyer for any costs incurred by Buyer to secure the substitute Deliverables. The termination charges set forth in Section 18(a) above shall not apply under this Section 18(b).

  1. ACCESS AND AUDIT. In order to assess Supplier’s work quality and compliance with the Purchase Agreement, Supplier will permit Buyer reasonable access to (i) all locations where work is performed in connection with the Deliverables provided for in the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) Supplier’s books and records relating to the Purchase Agreement. Supplier will provide Buyer, or Buyer’s designated third-party risk assessment partner, with unrestricted access to audited financial statements for a period of the most recent three (3) years (unaudited financials will be accepted only when not required by the relevant local regulations in the country of operations), plus proforma financials for the current year.

In the context of the performance of the Purchase Agreement, either Party (“Data Recipient”) shall not collect, retain , use, process or disclose Personal Data (as defined herein) provided by the other Party (“Data Provider”) for any purpose other than the fulfillment of the Purchase Agreement or related purchase orders. "Personal Data" means information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could be reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual, employee, vendor, agent, director, or other individuals that are not employees.  Such provision of Personal Data shall constitute an exchange from one controller to another controller.

Buyer will keep the Personal Data as long as necessary for the purposes of the processing for the entire duration of the contractual relationship between Buyer and Supplier and a period of ten (10) years thereafter, except if Buyer has to process it further under a legal obligation or in case of a dispute or legal procedure. Personal Data of Supplier may be transferred to Buyer entities worldwide or to third parties worldwide providing services to Buyer (such as data hosting services) for the same purposes. When transfers of Personal Data from the European Union (EU) or United Kingdom occur, Buyer uses the appropriate legal mechanism, including standard contractual clauses. When working with other parties outside the EU or United Kingdom, Buyer ensures adequate personal data protection via the applicable third-party requirements. By entering into the Purchase Agreement with Buyer, Supplier confirms that it is entitled to provide Buyer with this Personal Data in view of the use and transfer of Personal Data for these purposes, including that Supplier has obtained the necessary consents of data subjects where required. In situations where either Party would, as a processor, process Personal Data on behalf of the other (as controller), they will enter into a data processing agreement in conformity with applicable law, including the General Data Protection Regulation or UK General Data Protection Regulation, where applicable.
