Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer agrees that it will not transfer any export controlled item, data, or services, to include transfer to foreign persons or others under contract to Buyer or Buyer’s lower-tier suppliers, without the authority of an export license, agreement, or applicable exemption or exception.
In the event that Buyer anticipates utilizing foreign nationals or sources for any work under this Contract, Buyer shall notify Seller ten (10) working days before either applying for an export license under International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR), or the Export Administration Regulations.

Nothing in this clause is intended to waive or modify any statutory requirement or any requirement imposed by any other U.S. Government agency with respect to employment of foreign nationals or export control.

In addition, Seller shall not be held to the price of the Product in its quotation and/or order acknowledgment if the cost of materials needed for Seller’s manufacturing process of the Product, as the result of events listed in this paragraph, and being beyond the reasonable control of Seller, would increase beyond what can normally be expected during the life of the contract.
