Motorola, said lawsuit and counterclaims styled as set forth in Exhibit A (the “Litigation”).



WHEREAS, Aruba petitioned for the reexamination of four Motorola U.S. patents in the U.S.
Patent and Trademark Office – U.S. patents 7,173,922, 7,173,923, 6,973,622, and 6,625,454 – and the
PTO agreed to reexamine the patents (the “Re-examinations”).



WHEREAS, each Party denies the infringement allegations of the other Party, and admits no
liability and makes no admission with respect to any of the claims asserted in the Litigation
and/or the validity, infringement and enforceability of the other Party’s patents and patent
applications.



WHEREAS, each of the Parties desires to discontinue the Litigation and Aruba no longer desires
to pursue the Re-examinations.



WHEREAS, the Parties desire to enter into a strategic business relationship.



WHEREAS, each of the Parties desires to acquire certain releases, licenses under and/or
covenants with respect to patents and patent applications of the other Party.



NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual covenants herein contained, the
Parties agree as follows:



Section 1. Definitions



"Affiliate” of any corporation, company or other entity within the definition of Party means any
other corporation, company or other entity now or hereafter directly or indirectly controlled or
majority-owned by such first corporation, company or other entity, provided that such other
corporation, company or other entity shall be deemed to be an Affiliate only so long as such
ownership or control exists. Each such Affiliate shall be bound by the terms and conditions of
this Agreement as if it were named herein as one of the Parties. For purposes of this definition,
the term “control” as used with respect to any corporation, company or other entity, means the
direct or indirect ownership or control (whether through option, warrant, contract or otherwise) of
more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting securities of any corporation, company or other entity
or the direct or indirect power to elect more than fifty percent (50%) of any corporation’s,
company’s, or other entity’s board of directors or other managing authority; provided, however,
that if local law restricts the maximum ownership of foreign interests to fifty percent (50%) or
less, control shall be established by direct or indirect beneficial ownership of one hundred
percent (100%) of the maximum ownership percentage that may be owned by foreign interests under
such local law.



“Released Affiliates” of a Party means Affiliates of such Party on the Effective Date.



“Action” means any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, suits (including at law or
in equity, or mixed), proceedings, rights, damages, liabilities, losses, costs, expenses and
compensation, whether any of the foregoing are known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected.



"Assert” means to initiate or pursue an Action of any kind or nature, or direct or assist (other
than in response to a subpoena or as required by a court or other governmental authority of
competent jurisdiction) any other party to do so, before any U.S. or foreign legal, judicial,
arbitration, administrative, executive or other type of body or tribunal that has or claims to have
authority to adjudicate such Action in whole or in part. Examples of such body or tribunal include
United States State and Federal Courts, the United States International Trade Commission and any
foreign counterparts of any of the foregoing.



"Covered Products” means, with respect to either Party, (i) all products, services, software
and/or systems that are on sale, on offer for sale or otherwise commercially available by such
Party on the Effective Date (along with future products, services, software and/or systems that are
the same as the foregoing) and all commercially reasonable extensions of the same type and nature
as such products, services, software and/or systems, without material change in the basic
functionalities, including bug fixes and error corrections, and without the addition of material
new functionalities, and (ii) with respect to Aruba, all Licensed Aruba 802.11 Wireless LAN
Infrastructure Products and, with respect to Motorola, all Licensed Motorola 802.11 Wireless LAN
Infrastructure Products, as defined herein.



“Aruba’s Covered Products” means any and all Covered Products that are Exploited by Aruba, except
that Aruba’s Covered Products shall not include any Excluded Aruba Products. The Parties agree
that the products, services, software and/or systems of Aruba that Motorola accused of infringement
in the Litigation are not Excluded Aruba Products. For the avoidance of doubt, the term Aruba’s
Covered Products includes client software (that is Exploited by Aruba) only to the extent it
comprises 802.11 client software running on a mobile client device that connects to or is managed
by Aruba 802.11 infrastructure, and only to the extent such client software enables implementation
of Aruba-specific 802.11 wireless LAN infrastructure functions, including VoWLAN communication, and
in the case of VoWLAN communication with fixed mobile convergence functionality, only to the extent
such client software comprises Aruba’s Fixed Mobile Convergence Client Software, and the term does
not include client software to the extent it implements the user interface or the look and feel of
a client device, push to talk functionality, or voice quality functionality (other than as defined

following functions associated with handoff between 802.11 WLAN infrastructure and a cellular
network: (i) receipt and transmission of a signal or signals from Aruba’s 802.11 infrastructure
indicating that the 802.11 infrastructure is capable of connecting back to the carrier’s core
network for handling VoWLAN calls; or, (ii) sending a message based on information from the WLAN
infrastructure to other components of the client device software to act as a trigger to initiate a
handoff from the 802.11 WLAN to the cellular network or vice-versa. For the avoidance of doubt,
Aruba’s Fixed Mobile Convergence Client Software shall not include any other software or
functionality operating on a mobile client device.



“Motorola’s Covered Products” means any and all Covered Products that are Exploited by Motorola.



"Licensed Motorola 802.11 Wireless LAN Infrastructure Products” means past, present and future
indoor and outdoor (i) 802.11 wireless LAN switches, controllers, servers and access points, and
associated antennas and associated operating system software, including VoWLAN communication
enablement and management software, that are Exploited by Motorola and (ii) 802.11 Wireless LAN
planning and/or management and/or security software installed on such switches, controllers,
servers and access points and associated laptop computers, that are Exploited by Motorola and (iii)
802.11 tags/sensors that connect to or are managed by Motorola 802.11 infrastructure, to the extent

connects to or is managed by Motorola 802.11 infrastructure, to the extent such client software
enables implementation of Motorola-specific 802.11 wireless LAN infrastructure functions, including
VoWLAN communication, that are Exploited by Motorola. For the avoidance of doubt, the term
Licensed Motorola 802.11 Wireless LAN Infrastructure Products does not include client software to
the extent it implements the user interface or the look and feel of a client device, push to talk
functionality, or voice quality functionality (other than as defined in the 802.11 standard or as
necessary to allow the 802.11 wireless LAN infrastructure to process associated traffic between the
infrastructure and the client device), but it does include the products, services, software and/or
systems of Motorola that Aruba accused of infringement in the Litigation.



"Prior Released Products” means, with respect to a Party, any products, services, software and/or
systems, other than any of the foregoing that are Covered Products (because they are on sale, on
offer for sale or otherwise commercially available by such Party on the Effective Date), to the
extent such products, services, software and/or systems themselves have been sold, offered for
sale, or made commercially available by such Party at any time prior to the Effective Date
(excluding in each case any Excluded Aruba Products).



“Exploit” means, for Aruba, to carry out any or all of the activities of the type set forth in
sections 3.1.1(a) and (b) below, and for Motorola, to carry out any or all of the activities of the
type set forth in sections 3.1.2(a) and (b) below.



“includes”, “including”, “included” and other variations of such terms shall be deemed to be
followed by the phrase “without limitation”.

(without compensation to a third party other than an employee inventor) by Aruba, including the
Licensed Aruba 802.11 Wireless LAN Infrastructure Patents.



“Aruba Asserted Patents” means U.S. Patent Nos. 7,295,524 and 7,376,113.



"Licensed Aruba 802.11 Wireless LAN Infrastructure Patents” means all Aruba Asserted Patents, all
Patents and patent applications, foreign or domestic, taking priority from or sharing a priority
claim with the foregoing or containing substantially the same specification, and any Patents
claiming any or any portion of the Licensed Motorola 802.11 Wireless LAN Infrastructure Products,
that are owned, controlled or sub-licensable (without compensation to a third party other than an
employee inventor) by Aruba as of the Effective Date, that are later filed or that later issue from
Aruba’s currently pending or such subsequently filed Patent applications. Aruba agrees that it
will not contend that, nor seek to admit into evidence for any purpose, in a subsequent proceeding,
litigation, or otherwise, any assertion, admission, interpretation or contention by Motorola that
an Aruba Patent falls within the scope of this definition constitutes evidence or an admission by
Motorola that the Patent is infringed by any Motorola product.



“Motorola’s Patents” means all Patents currently or hereafter owned, controlled or sub-licensable
(without compensation to a third party other than an employee inventor) by Motorola, including the
Licensed Motorola 802.11 Wireless LAN Infrastructure Patents but excluding the Excluded Motorola
Patents.

than an employee inventor) by Motorola as of the Effective Date, that are later filed or that later
issue from Motorola’s currently pending or such subsequently filed Patent applications. For the
avoidance of doubt, the term “Licensed Motorola 802.11 Wireless LAN Infrastructure Patents” does
not include the Excluded Motorola Patents. Motorola agrees that it will not contend that, nor seek
to admit into evidence for any purpose, in a subsequent proceeding, litigation, or otherwise, any
assertion, admission, interpretation or contention by Aruba that a Motorola Patent falls within the
scope of this definition constitutes evidence or an admission by Aruba that the Patent is infringed
by any Aruba product.



“Excluded Motorola Patents” means Patents owned, controlled or sub-licensable (without compensation
to a third party other than an employee inventor) by Motorola, including both standards essential
Patents and implementation Patents, to the extent they claim: i) 2G, 3G or 4G telecommunications

provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, the Motorola Asserted Patents and all patent
applications, foreign or domestic, taking priority from or sharing a priority claim with the
Motorola Asserted Patents or containing substantially the same specification as the Motorola
Asserted Patents are not Excluded Motorola Patents.



“Licensed Patents” means (a) where Motorola is the Grantor, the Licensed Motorola 802.11 Wireless
LAN Infrastructure Patents and (b) where Aruba is the Grantor, the Licensed Aruba 802.11 Wireless
LAN Infrastructure Patents.



“Covered Patents” means (a) where Motorola is the Grantor, Motorola’s Patents and (b) where Aruba
is the Grantor, Aruba’s Patents.



“Protected Parties” means, with respect to a Party, such Party’s direct and indirect distributors,

an Assertion brought after the expiration of such covenants. 



4.4 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the releases, licenses, dismissals, and
covenants granted by (i) Motorola shall run with Motorola’s Patents and (ii) Aruba shall run with
Aruba’s Patents, and remain in each case in full force and effect regardless of any subsequent
assignment, exclusive license, sale, gift or other transfer of any of such Patents or any rights or
interests therein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any such assignment, exclusive
license, sale, gift or other transfer of rights in or to such Patents by a Party shall be made
subject to this Agreement, and any such assignment, exclusive license, sale, gift or other transfer
of rights in or to such Patents by any Party in contravention of this Section shall be null and
void and of no force or effect to the extent of such contravention.



4.5 In the event either Party Asserts a Patent infringement claim in violation of this Section 4,
or in violation of the releases granted in Section 2 or the licenses granted in Section 3, the
non-Asserting Party shall be entitled to have such claims dismissed with prejudice and recover from
the Asserting Party its reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable associated costs and expenses
incurred in defending against the Assertion. In the event the non-Asserting Party claims such a
violation, and such Asserting Party’s infringement Assertion is not found to be in violation, such
Asserting Party shall be entitled to recover from the non-Asserting Party its reasonable attorneys’
fees and reasonable associated costs and expenses incurred in defending against the claim of a
violation.



Section 5. Payment

currently pending between the Parties as set forth in the attached Exhibit A shall be dismissed
with prejudice, each Party to bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees, provided, however, that
neither Party makes any admission of liability and each Party, subject to the limitations in
Section 4, reserves the right to contest in any future litigation between the Parties the
infringement, validity or enforceability of any patent asserted by the other Party in the currently
pending Litigation. Within three business days of the receipt by Motorola of the non-refundable
payment specified in Section 5.1 of this Agreement, the respective counsel of the Parties shall
execute and file a Stipulated Order of Dismissal With Prejudice. In addition, Aruba agrees that it
will not make any additional filing or response in the Inter Partes reexamination of U.S.
Patent No. 7,173,922, or in any appeal of any reexamination decisions arising therefrom to the
Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences or to the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit,
except to the extent such filing or response is required by law and not optional.



Section 7. Term and Breach



7.1 Unless earlier terminated under the provisions of this Agreement: i) the term of the licenses
granted in Section 3 shall be for the Term and the covenants made in Section 4.1 and 4.2 of this
Agreement shall be for the Limited Term.



7.2 In the event of a breach by Aruba of its payment obligation under Section 5 of this Agreement,
Motorola shall provide written notice of such breach to Aruba by courier and facsimile per Section
10 below, with a copy to Aruba’s Chief Financial Officer. Within ten (10) calendar days after its
receipt of such written notice from Motorola, Aruba may cure such breach. Subject to the right to
cure provided herein, the failure of full and timely receipt by Motorola of the non-refundable
payment set forth in Section 5.1 hereof shall render the entire Agreement, including all releases,
licenses and covenants contained herein, null and void and of no effect ab initio.



7.3 In the event that either Party Asserts any patent infringement Action against the other Party,
neither Party shall refer to the Litigation or this Agreement in connection with such Assertion, or
attempt to introduce this Agreement (or any of its terms and conditions) into evidence, other than
in connection with any Action to enforce or interpret this Agreement.



Section 8. Change of Control



8.1 As used herein, “Change of Control” means, with respect to a Party, the occurrence of any of
the following: (1) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition ( other
than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or
substantially all of the assets of such Party to any corporation, company or other entity (other
than any corporation, company or other entity within the definition of Party) or (2) the
consummation of any transaction (including any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that
any corporation, company or other entity (other than any corporation, company or other entity
within the definition of Party) becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than
50% of the then outstanding number of shares of such Party’s voting stock.



8.2 In the event of a Change of Control:




	(a)	 	the Party that has been acquired (“Acquired Party”) shall promptly give notice of such
acquisition to the other Party;






	(b)	 	the licenses granted to the Acquired Party under the other Party’s Licensed Patents, and the
releases, covenants and other rights made for the benefit of the Acquired Party, shall not
extend to any pre-existing products, services, software, methods, processes, apparatuses,
systems, specifications, documentation, and/or any other technology of the applicable third
party acquirer (the “Third Party Acquirer”) and any extensions, modifications, enhancements
and revisions thereof and/or new products, technologies, services products, services,
software, methods, processes, apparatuses, systems, specifications, documentation, and/or any
other technology of the Third Party Acquirer developed after the consummation of such Change
of Control other than any of the foregoing developed or created solely by the Acquired Party
or using solely its businesses or assets (collectively the foregoing, “Third Party Acquirer
Items”); and,






	(c)	 	provided that the Third Party Acquirer agrees in writing to be bound by the terms and
conditions of this Agreement with respect to the Acquired Party as if it were a named Party
herein, this Agreement and all rights and obligations of the Acquired Party hereunder shall be
deemed assigned to the Third Party Acquirer, subject to the provisions of Section 8.2(b); and






	(d)	 	further provided that in the event of a Change of Control for Aruba and the Third Party
Acquirer is a business that sells or offers for sale products or services that if sold by
Aruba would fall within the definition of Aruba’s Covered Products, and such Third Party
Acquirer products and services are not licensed and/or subject to a covenant under Motorola’s
Asserted Patents prior to the Change of Control, and the sales revenues of the Third Party
Acquirer for such Third Party Acquirer products and services in the twelve (12) months
preceding the Change of Control are greater than the Third Party Acquirer Threshold, then






to cover normal anticipated growth the licenses granted to Aruba and the covenants made for
the benefit of Aruba hereunder shall apply to the Third Party Acquirer (but not to the Third
Party Acquirer Items), only up to the annual sales dollar volume of Aruba’s Covered Products
in the twelve (12) months prior to the Change of Control, increased in each subsequent
twelve (12) month period by the greater of: i) 15% per year, or ii) the percentage growth
rate for such Covered Products of Aruba in the twelve (12) months prior to the Change of
Control; and




	(e)	 	to the extent that the Third Party Acquirer wishes to obtain a license and/or covenant not to
assert above and beyond the amounts set forth in 8.2(d) above, the Third Party Acquirer and
Motorola shall negotiate a reasonable and non-discriminatory addition to the non-refundable
payment established in Section 5 to compensate Motorola for the inclusion of such products and
services within the scope of the licenses and covenants granted by Motorola herein.





8.3 “Third Party Acquirer Threshold” means an annual dollar sales volume of such products and
services by the Third Party Acquirer in the twelve (12) months preceding the Change of Control
equal to or greater than twenty-five percent (25%) of the sales of Covered Products by Aruba during
the twelve (12) months preceding the consummation of such Change of Control.



Section 9. Acquisition of New Business



9.1 In the event that Aruba acquires, after the Effective Date, by whatever means, including by
purchase of assets or equity or by an exchange of stock, a business that makes, uses, sells, offers
for sale and/or imports products or services that if sold by Aruba would fall within the definition
of Aruba’s Covered Products and are covered by the claims of the Motorola Asserted Patents or the
claims issuing from any patent applications, foreign or domestic, taking priority from or sharing a
priority claim with the Motorola Asserted Patents or containing substantially the same
specification as the Motorola Asserted Patents (the “Acquired Business”), and such products or
services are not licensed and/or subject to a covenant under the Motorola Asserted Patents prior to
the date of the acquisition, then the Parties shall negotiate a reasonable and non-discriminatory
addition to the non-refundable payment established in Section 5 to compensate Motorola for the
addition of such products and services to the scope of the licenses and covenants granted by
Motorola herein, provided that this reasonable and non-discriminatory addition shall not be
applicable with respect to any sales of such products or services by the Acquired Business in the
year prior to the acquisition that are less than fifteen percent (15%) of the total sales of the
applicable Covered Products by Aruba for that year.



9.2 In no event shall such reasonable and non-discriminatory addition exceed the ratio of the
non-refundable payment set forth in Section 5 to the net present value (discounted at a reasonable
and non-discriminatory rate) of the total volume of sale of Aruba’s Covered Products by Aruba
projected as of the Effective date for the Term in the U.S. and other countries where Motorola has
filed counterpart applications to the Asserted Patents, as applied to such additional products and
services.



9.3 The Acquired Business shall be excluded from the license and covenant of Sections 3 and 4 of
this Agreement until such reasonable addition, if applicable, to the non-refundable payment is paid
to Motorola. Upon full payment by Aruba to Motorola in accordance with the foregoing, the Acquired
Business shall be deemed included in the license and covenant of Sections 3 and 4 retroactive to
the date of the acquisition by Aruba of the Acquired Business.

may give written notice of a change of address and, after notice of such change has been received,
any notice or request shall thereafter be given to such Party as above provided at such changed
address.



Section 11. Dispute Resolution



11.1 During the Term, all disputes between the Parties arising out of or relating to (i) the
interpretation or performance of this Agreement or (ii) any patent licenses, covenants or other
rights subject to this Agreement shall first be discussed by the employees of each Party
responsible for administration of this Agreement in an attempt to find a mutually acceptable
resolution through friendly consultations. If such dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days
after the commencement of such consultation (or any extension mutually agreed to by the Parties),
either Party may escalate the discussions to executives who have authority to settle the dispute
and are at a higher level of management than the persons with direct responsibility for
administration of this Agreement.



11.2 In the event such dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days after such escalation,
either Party acting in its sole discretion shall then be entitled to submit the dispute to
non-binding mediation by a mutually acceptable mediator to be chosen by Motorola and Aruba within
ten (10) days after written notice by either Party demanding mediation. Neither Party may
unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of the mediator. Each Party shall bear its own
costs of mediation, but Motorola and Aruba shall share the costs of the mediator equally. The
mediation shall take place in Wilmington, Delaware or another mutually agreed to location. The use
of any mediation procedures will not be construed under the doctrines of laches, waiver or estoppel
to adversely affect the rights of either Party.



11.3 In the event that the processes set forth in Sections 11.1 and 11.2 do not result in
resolution of the dispute within thirty (30) days after the later of (i) written notice by either
party stating that the dispute is unresolved and that such party will not be demanding mediation or
(ii) written notice by either Party demanding mediation, either Party may bring an action in the
civil courts for the state of Delaware as provided in Section 13.15 below for final and binding
resolution of disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation or enforcement of this
Agreement or any patent licenses, covenants or other rights subject to this Agreement. All
discussions, negotiations and mediation pursuant to this clause are confidential and shall be
treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of the applicable rules of evidence.



Section 12. Limitations on Patent Challenges



12.1 As an ongoing condition of this Agreement, each Party covenants and agrees that during the
Term of this Agreement it shall not challenge the validity or enforceability of any Patent of the
other Party that is subject to this Agreement, through opposition, re-examination, patent
litigation or otherwise, provided that such other Party is not breaching the terms and conditions
of this Agreement. This Section 12 shall not apply in the event such other Party first Asserts
such Patent against such covenanting Party.



Section 13. Miscellaneous



13.1 Neither Party shall assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations under this
Agreement. Any attempt to do so, by operation of law or otherwise, shall be void; provided,
however, that each Party hereto shall have the right to assign this Agreement in connection with
(i) a reorganization to its legal successor(s), provided that after the reorganization, the
successor(s) and its Affiliates will have essentially the same assets as such Party had prior to
the reorganization; or (ii) the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of its business or
assets, whether by sale, merger, operation of law, or otherwise in connection with a Change of
Control which shall be treated as set forth in Section 8 above. This Agreement shall be binding
upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their permitted (in accordance with the foregoing)
successors and assignees, provided that such successor or assignee, as the case may be, executes an
agreement to be bound by all the obligations of such Party under this Agreement and a copy of such
agreement is provided to the other Party hereto.



Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, as this Agreement may be for the
benefit of multiple businesses of Motorola, in the event Motorola separates one or more of its
businesses with at least $2,000,000,000.00 (Two Billion U.S. Dollars) in annual revenues (each a
“Separated Business”), whether by way of a sale, establishment of a joint venture, spin-off or
otherwise (each a “Separation Event”), Motorola may, without the prior written consent of the other
party and at no additional cost to Motorola, split this Agreement by assigning certain of its
rights or obligations such that it will continue to benefit both Motorola and the Separated
Business and their respective Affiliates following the Separation Event.



In no event shall the Separation Event result in Aruba’s being required to increase its obligations
under, scope of license or payments owed as a result of this Agreement, or decrease or diminish the
rights enjoyed by Aruba pursuant to this Agreement, and in no event shall a Separated Business
enjoy any of the rights of Motorola under this Agreement without also accepting the associated
Motorola obligations and limitations hereunder. Further, promptly after a Separation Event, the
Separated Business will execute in writing an agreement to be bound by all the obligations of
Motorola under this Agreement with respect to such rights and obligations assigned to such
Separated Business in such Separation Event, and a copy of such agreement will be provided to
Aruba.



13.2 Each Party represents and warrants that it has the full right and power to enter into and
perform this Agreement, including granting the releases and licenses set forth in Sections 2 and 3,
respectively, and to make the covenants set forth in Section 4, and that the entrance into and
performance of this Agreement does not and will not conflict with or violate any other agreement or
license of, or rights granted by, such Party. Neither Party makes any other representation or
warranty, express or implied, nor shall either Party have any liability in respect of any
infringement of patents or other rights of third parties due to the other Party’s operation under
the licenses herein granted.



13.3 The Parties expressly agree and acknowledge that by entering into this Agreement no Party (nor
any Protected Party) admits any liability, wrongdoing or the truth of any allegation contained in
any claim, defense or counterclaim alleged in the Litigation. Neither this Agreement nor any
provision in this Agreement may be construed or used as an admission of any wrongdoing, liability,
or violation of law whatsoever, and nothing in this Agreement is an admission by any Party or any
of its Protected Parties that any patents or patent applications of the other Party are infringed,
valid or enforceable. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring any
rights by implication, estoppel or otherwise, under any non-patent intellectual property right,
under any design patent or trademark, trade name or brand, or, other than as expressly set forth in
this Agreement, under any patents or patent applications. Neither Party is required hereunder to
furnish or disclose to the other any technical or other information except as specifically provided
herein.



13.4 Neither Party shall have any obligation hereunder to institute any action or suit against
third parties for infringement of any of its Patents or to defend any action or suit brought by a
third party which challenges or concerns the validity of any of its Patents. Neither Party shall
have any right to institute any action or suit against third parties for infringement of the other
Party’s Patents. Neither Party is required to file any patent application, or to secure any patent
or patent rights, or to maintain any patent in force.



13.5 No express or implied waiver by either of the Parties to this Agreement of any breach of any
term, condition or obligation of this Agreement by the other Party shall be construed as a waiver
of any subsequent breach of that term, condition or obligation or of any other term, condition or
obligation of this Agreement of the same or of a different nature.



13.6 This Agreement is the result of negotiation between the Parties and, accordingly, shall not be
construed for or against either Party regardless of which Party drafted this Agreement or any
portion thereof.



13.7 In no event shall either Party be liable to the other Party by reason of this Agreement or any
breach or termination of this Agreement for any loss of prospective profits or incidental or
special or consequential damages.



13.8 With respect to matters of contract construction and interpretation, the substantive law of
the state of Delaware, United States of America shall apply to this Agreement, without regard to
its conflicts of laws principles. However, with respect to matters of infringement and validity of
intellectual property rights, the substantive law of the jurisdiction in which such intellectual
property rights issued or applications therefor were filed shall be applied.



13.9 This Agreement shall not be binding upon the Parties until it has been signed below by or on
behalf of each Party. No amendment or modification of this Agreement shall be valid or binding
upon the Parties unless made in writing and signed by each Party, except that either Party may
amend its address in Section 10.1 by written notice to the other Party.



13.10 If any term, clause or provision of this Agreement is found by competent authority to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect for any reason, the Parties shall negotiate in
good faith a valid, legal and enforceable substitute provision that most nearly reflects the
original intent of the Parties and the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in effect.



13.11 The headings of sections are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not intended
to be a part of or to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.



13.12 Each Party acknowledges that all licenses and covenants granted by it under or pursuant to
this Agreement are, and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the
United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), licenses of rights to “intellectual
property” as defined under Section 101(56) of the Bankruptcy Code. Each Party acknowledges that if
such Party, as a debtor in possession or a trustee-in-bankruptcy in a case under the Bankruptcy
Code, rejects this Agreement, the other Party may elect to retain its rights under this Agreement
as provided in Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code. Each Party irrevocably waives all arguments
and defenses arising under 11 U.S.C. 365(c)(1) or successor provisions to the effect that
applicable law excuses the Party, other than the debtor, from accepting performance from or
rendering performance to an entity other than the debtor or debtor in possession as a basis for
opposing assumption of the Agreements by the other Party in a case under Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code to the extent that such consent is required under 11 U.S.C. § 365(c)(1) or any
successor statute, provided that any Change of Control resulting from such proceeding shall be
subject to Section 8.2.



13.13 The Parties shall issue a joint press release in the form set forth in the attached Exhibit
B. The Parties shall make no inaccurate or untrue public statements regarding this Agreement or
the Litigation.



13.14 Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding and agreement between
the Parties as to the subject matter hereof and merges and supersedes all previous communications,
negotiations, warranties, representations and intellectual property, licensing and other agreements
between the Parties, either oral or written, with respect to the subject matter thereof, and no
addition to or modification of the definitive agreement shall be binding on either Party unless
reduced to writing and signed by duly authorized representatives on behalf of each Party.



13.15 All disputes, differences or questions between the Parties relating to the construction or
interpretation of this Agreement shall be finally settled by the U.S. Federal Court for the
District of Delaware and applicable appellate courts, which shall have exclusive jurisdiction and
whose determinations shall be final and binding on the Parties. In the event there is no subject
matter jurisdiction in such Federal Court, the Delaware state courts and applicable appellate
courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction. The Parties waive any objection to personal jurisdiction
in such courts and waive any argument that such venues are inconvenient.



13.16 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which is
deemed an original, but all of which



1



together constitute one and the same instrument. A facsimile or copy of a signature is valid as an
original.



IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Motorola, Inc. and Aruba Networks, Inc., for themselves and each of their
