INCORPORATE (WITHOUT THE EXPRESS WRITTEN APPROVAL OF AN OFFICER OF LICENSOR) ANY ATMEL DESIGN ELEMENTS INTO ANY SUCH PRODUCTS. HIGH RISK ACTIVITIES INCLUDE, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE OPERATION OF
NUCLEAR FACILITIES OR OTHER NUCLEAR APPLICATIONS, AVIONICS AND OTHER AIRCRAFT NAVIGATION AND COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS, AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL, MEDICAL APPLICATIONS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEMS AND OTHER MEDICAL EQUIPMENT), AND
WEAPONS SYSTEMS. WITHOUT LIMITATION OF THIS SECTION 3.4, IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO LICENSEE OR ANY THIRD PARTY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO ANY USE OF ANY ATMEL DESIGN ELEMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH HIGH RISK ACTIVITIES,
AND LICENSOR HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR ANY HIGH RISK ACTIVITIES. 
 4. Warranty, Indemnity and Limitation of
Liability 
 4.1 Authority Relative to this Agreement. Each Party (“Warranting Party”) hereby represents and warrants to
the other Party as follows: 
 (a) It has all necessary power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its
obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; 
 (b) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the
Warranting Party and the consummation by the Warranting Party of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary action and no other proceedings on the part of such Warranting Party are necessary to
authorize this Agreement or to consummate the transactions so contemplated; and 
 (c) This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and
delivered by the Warranting Party and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the other Party, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Warranting Party enforceable against such Warranting Party in accordance with
its terms. 
 4.2 Disclaimers. 

(a) EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED IN THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT OR IN THIS ARTICLE 4 (WARRANTY, INDEMNITY AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY), EACH
PARTY DISCLAIMS ALL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, STATUTORY OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE LICENSED PRODUCTS, ATMEL DESIGN ELEMENTS, LICENSED INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND ANY OTHER CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY HEREIN SHALL APPLY TO ANY DAMAGES, HOWEVER CAUSED AND REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER DERIVED FROM CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING,
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY 

  
 6 









 
OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF A PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE LIMITED REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FAIL OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. 

(b) THE ATMEL DESIGN ELEMENTS ARE PROVIDED TO LICENSEE “AS IS” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS.” LICENSOR DOES NOT MAKE, AND LICENSOR
HEREBY DISCLAIMS, ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND (WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE) IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ATMEL DESIGN ELEMENTS OR ANY OTHER ASPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS, AND ANY WARRANTIES THAT MAY ARISE FROM COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OR USAGE OF TRADE. 

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE OTHER PARTY HAS ENTERED INTO THIS AGREEMENT IN RELIANCE ON THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMERS OF
WARRANTIES, EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT EACH OF THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS FORMS AN ESSENTIAL AND FUNDAMENTAL PART OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES, WITHOUT WHICH SUCH THE OTHER
PARTY WOULD NOT HAVE ENTERED INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY AGREES THAT SUCH PROVISIONS WILL SURVIVE AND APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. 

4.3 Licensor Indemnity. Subject to Section 4.5, Licensor shall have the right and obligation to defend Licensee and its
Affiliates and their respective stockholders, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns against any third party claim, suit or proceeding (collectively, “Action”) alleging that the Atmel Design Elements or their
use in accordance with this Agreement, solely unmodified in the form provided by Licensor and used solely as contemplated herein, infringes or misappropriates any third party Intellectual Property Rights, subject to the limitations hereinafter set
forth. Licensor will have sole control of any such Action or settlement negotiations, and Licensor agrees to pay, subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth, any final judgment entered against Licensee in any such Action defended by Licensor
excluding any amount thereof that is not attributable to infringement or misappropriation resulting from the use of Atmel Design Elements in the form provided by Licensor and used solely as contemplated herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Licensor shall have no obligation to defend or settle any Action or to pay any judgment or other amounts to the extent arising from (i) any Improvement or modification of the Atmel Design Elements not made by Licensor; or (ii) any
combination of the Atmel Design Elements with technology or other items not provided by Licensor. Licensee agrees that Licensor will be relieved of the foregoing obligations if Licensee fails to (i) notify Licensor promptly in writing of such
Action and such failure prejudices the defense of such Action, (ii) give Licensor authority to proceed with sole control of the Action as contemplated herein, or (iii) give Licensor proper and full information and assistance in order to
settle and/or defend any such Action. Licensor will not be liable for any costs or expenses incurred without its prior written authorization. Licensee shall have the 

  
 7 









 
right to participate with Licensee’s own counsel at Licensee’s sole expense in the defense of any claim against Licensee and Licensor shall not settle any such claim or take any action
in prejudice to Licensee’s interests without Licensee’s written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the event of any Action, Licensor shall have the right to (a) modify the Atmel Design
Elements to avoid the alleged infringement, provided such modifications do not result in any material loss of functionality to the Licensee of the Atmel Design Elements, or (b) obtain any necessary license or other right to enable Licensee to
continue to use the Atmel Design Elements substantially as contemplated herein without infringement. 
 4.4 Licensee Indemnity.
Except to the extent of claims of infringement for which Licensor has an obligation to indemnify Licensee under Section 4.3 or to the extent arising from the Purchased Assets or Licensor’s breach of the Purchase Agreement, Licensee
shall defend Licensor and its Affiliates against any Action to the extent arising from Licensee’s use of any Improvements or modifications by Licensee of Atmel Design Elements made by or for Licensee, any combination of the Atmel Design
Elements with technology or other items not provided by Licensor, or Licensee’s own products. Licensee will have sole control of any such Action or settlement negotiations, and Licensee agrees to pay, subject to the limitations hereinafter set
forth, any final judgment entered against Licensor in any such Action defended by Licensee. Licensor shall have the right to participate with Licensor’s own counsel at Licensor’s sole expense in the defense of any claim against Licensor or
any claim of infringement involving the Atmel Design Elements or other Confidential Information, and Licensee shall not settle any such claim or take any action in prejudice to Licensor’s interests without Licensor’s consent. Licensor
agrees that Licensee will be relieved of the foregoing obligations if Licensor fails to (i) notify Licensee promptly in writing of such Action and such failure prejudices the defense of such Action, (ii) give Licensee authority to proceed
with sole control of the Action as contemplated herein, or (iii) give Licensee proper and full information and assistance in order to settle and/or defend any such Action. 

4.5 Limitation of Liability. Until the date that is twenty-four (24) months from the date of this Agreement, neither Party’s
total cumulative liability under this Section 4 of this Agreement shall not exceed [*]. Thereafter, neither Party shall have any liability whatsoever under this Section 4 of this Agreement and shall have no obligation to indemnify, or
defend, the other Party for any claims or Actions related to this Agreement. 
 5. Confidentiality. The provisions of Section 10.8,
“Confidentiality,” of the Purchase Agreement shall apply to this Agreement mutatis mutandis. 
 6. Term and Termination

* Confidential Treatment Requested 









 6.2 Termination for Default. Any Party may at any time, without waiving any legal rights
or remedies it may otherwise have, immediately terminate this Agreement if any other Party commences a voluntary case under or seeks relief under any bankruptcy or insolvency or analogous law in any jurisdiction inside or outside the United States
(“Bankruptcy Law”), has an involuntary case commenced against it under any Bankruptcy Law which remains undismissed and unstayed for a period of thirty (30) days, makes an assignment to the benefit of its creditors, or becomes
insolvent or ceases to do business as a going concern. 
 6.3 Effect of Termination. Upon any termination of this Agreement,
(a) all licenses granted to Licensee under this Agreement will terminate, (b) Licensee will discontinue all use, reproduction, incorporation and other exploitation of the Atmel Design Elements and other Confidential Information in its

(d) the rights and obligations of the parties under Sections 2, 4, 5, 6 and 7 will survive such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, termination of this Agreement will not affect the right of
Licensee’s customers to use Atmel Design Elements as incorporated in Licensed Products that are designed or distributed up to the date of termination hereof.
