In any dispute with respect to these exclusions, Recipient shall have the burden of proof, and such proof shall be by clear and convincing evidence.  Recipient will not be in violation of this Agreement with regard to a disclosure that is in response to a requirement of applicable law, an order by a court or other governmental body, or to the extent required by the Securities and Exchange Commission in a securities filing, provided that, if feasible, Recipient provides Discloser with reasonable prior written notice of such disclosure to permit Discloser to seek confidential treatment of such information or otherwise contest or limit the disclosure thereof.





	
5.3
	
No License Granted.  Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, Discloser will retain all right, title and interest in and to its own Confidential Information.

Recipient shall not, in connection with the foregoing obligations, be required to delete Confidential Information held electronically in archive or backup systems in accordance with general systems archiving or backup policies, and Recipient’s obligations under this Agreement will continue to apply to such Confidential Information.

The Parties intend that all licenses granted under this Agreement are, for purposes of Section 365(n) of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended from time to time (the “Bankruptcy Code”), licenses of rights to “intellectual property,” as that term is defined in section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code.

Execution Copy

 


	
 
	
(i)
	
This Agreement is an executory agreement under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code;





	
 
	
(ii)
	
This Agreement is personal to the Parties and their Affiliates.  Except for the licenses granted herein, as a licensor of intellectual property (as that term is defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) under this Agreement, in entering this Agreement and granting the rights it grants under this Agreement, each Party has, in its efforts to protect its own valuable intellectual property, relied on the particular skills and business qualities of the recipients of such rights.  Such skills and business qualities include the expected future innovation of the other Party and its Affiliates licensed under this Agreement, and the particular market segments addressed by the other Party and its Affiliates in their businesses.  Therefore, the Parties agree that in the event of any Party’s entry into bankruptcy proceedings of any kind (including without limitation the entry into bankruptcy proceedings of any kind by any Affiliate), this Agreement is of the type described in Section 365(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code because U.S. patent and copyright law prohibits the assignment of a patent or copyright license without the consent of the licensor, and thus this Agreement may not be assumed or assigned in bankruptcy by a Party or any of its Affiliates without the consent of the other Party to this Agreement.





	
 
	
(iii)
	
Any purported assignment, assumption or transfer in violation of this Section 12.3 shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement and shall be null and void.  Subject to the provisions of this Section 12.3, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties, their Affiliates and their permitted successors and assigns.





	
 
	
(c)
	
In connection with any bankruptcy petition filed by or against a Party or any Affiliate of such Party, such Party will make an election under Section 365(a) of the Bankruptcy Code to assume or reject this Agreement within five (5) business days following the filing of bankruptcy petition by or against such Party or Affiliate.  The Parties acknowledge and agree that any assignment or assumption of this Agreement under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code constitutes a Change of Control Transaction.





	
12.4
	
Financial Information.  Airspan will provide Gogo quarterly unaudited financial statements and annual audited financial statements at the time as such reports are provided to its equity holders.





	
12.5
	
Relationship.  The relationship between the Parties to this Agreement is and shall be that of independent contractors.  It is expressly agreed that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create or imply a partnership, joint venture, agency relationship or contract of employment.  Neither Party shall have the authority to make any statement, representation nor commitment of any kind, or to take any action that shall be binding on the other Party except as authorized in writing by the Party to be bound.  Personnel supplied by Airspan hereunder are not Gogo’s employees or agents, and Airspan assumes full responsibility for: (a) their acts, (b) compensation of Airspan personnel, and (c) the payment of worker’s compensation, disability benefits, or unemployment insurance or for withholding or paying employment related taxes for any such Airspan personnel.





	
12.6
	
Entire Agreement; Binding Effect; Amendment; Order of Precedence.  This Agreement (together with the Exhibits, and SOW(s) hereto) constitutes the entire agreement between Airspan and Gogo regarding the subject matter hereof.  All prior or contemporaneous agreements, proposals, understandings and communications between Airspan and Gogo regarding the subject matter hereof, whether oral or written, are superseded by and merged into this Agreement.  Neither this Agreement nor any SOW hereto may be modified or amended except by a written instrument executed by both Airspan and Gogo.  In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and any SOW issued under this Agreement, the terms and conditions of the SOW shall govern and control.  Additional or different terms in any written communication from Airspan (such as an invoice or purchase order) are void.





	
12.7
	
Severability.  If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be enforceable to the maximum extent possible.
