B. This Agreement is not a requirements contract and does not obligate Buyer to purchase any minimum quantity of Product but only establishes the terms and conditions for such purchase if and when they occur, except as provided in Exhibit "A". 2. PURCHASE ORDERS A. Buyer will purchase Products only by issuing purchase orders ("Order or Orders") to Seller. Orders shall contain such things as quantity, price, delivery date, part number, and revision level.
