On June 16, 2020, Tesla announced a new three-year pricing deal (from June 10, 2020) with its long-term (but not exclusive) battery partner - Panasonic.
The 2020 Pricing Agreement (effective as of April 1, 2020 until March 31, 2023) is about lithium-ion cells produced at the Tesla Gigafactory in Nevada (the cylindrical 2170-type used in Model 3, Model Y and energy storage systems).
The brief announcement mentions several topics of the agreement (without providing any details):

-"planned investments and new technology"
-"production capacity commitments by Panasonic and purchase volume commitments by Tesla over the first two years"
