 (g) Broadcom shall not use or hire others to use or analyze any AMD Technology that
is not otherwise publicly available for the purposes of determining if any features, functions or processes provided by the AMD Technology are covered by any patents or patent applications owned by Broadcom and then use that analysis to assert
patent infringement claims against AMD. 
 3.2 Use of Third Parties. 
 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Broadcom and, its Subsidiaries may utilize third-party contractors
(“Contractors”) in connection with its exercise of license rights under Section 3.1; provided that the use of AMD Technology by such Contractors is solely to support Broadcom or its Subsidiaries or sublicensees in
connection with Broadcom’s or its Subsidiaries’ rights under this Agreement and in strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (b) If any third party that received deliverables or AMD Confidential Information from Broadcom pursuant to this Agreement breaches the obligations imposed on Broadcom under this Agreement with respect to such
deliverables or AMD Confidential Information, Broadcom agrees to take all reasonable actions to cure such breach. If Broadcom is unable to cure such breach within ten (10) Business Days after Broadcom receives written notice of such breach from

Broadcom pursuant to this Agreement in its possession. 
 (c) Nothing herein shall prevent Broadcom or its Subsidiaries from
giving their customers access to APIs with respect to the AMD Technology or Broadcom Owned Improvements to facilitate interoperability between such customers’ products and the AMD Technology or Broadcom Owned Improvements. Notwithstanding the

 8.1 TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AND EXCEPT FOR BREACHES OF CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS OR BREACHES OF LICENSE RESTRICTIONS, IN NO EVENT SHALL A PARTY BE LIABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT TO THE OTHER PARTY OR TO ANY PARTY CLAIMING THROUGH OR UNDER ANOTHER
PARTY, FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, OR FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING STRICT LIABILITY), BASED ON A WARRANTY, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS
AGREEMENT, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. 
 8.2 TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
AND WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OTHER PROVISION IN THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL AMD OR ITS AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES RELATING TO OR RESULTING FROM THE USE OF AMD TECHNOLOGY IN PRODUCTS USED FOR AVIATION, MEDICAL, NUCLEAR OR HAZARDOUS

 AMD AND BROADCOM CONFIDENTIAL 
  

 9.3 AMD Bankruptcy. Each party’s rights under this Agreement are perpetual, irrevocable,
and nonexecutory, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other contract, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. In the event of the commencement of a bankruptcy proceeding by or against a party, the license
grant or covenant not to sue, as applicable, to the other party in Section 3 shall continue in full force and effect. Under no circumstances shall the other party’s exercise of the rights granted to it in Section 3, or reliance on the
covenant not to sue granted to it in Section 3.4, ever be construed as an infringement of the licensor party’s rights in the AMD Intellectual Property Rights, the AMD Technology, the Broadcom Owned Improvements or the Intellectual Property
Rights owned by Broadcom or its Subsidiaries that cover the Broadcom Owned Improvements, as applicable. In the event that a bankruptcy court or other court of competent jurisdiction ever determines by final judgment that this Agreement is executory,
despite every intention and effort by the parties to negotiate and document nonexecutory rights for the other party, and without implying any acceptance of the rejected concept that it is legally impossible to create such a nonexecutory license for
Intellectual Property Rights or Technology, all rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement are, and shall otherwise be deemed to be, for purposes of Section 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, licenses of rights to
“intellectual property” as defined under Section 101 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and the APA is an agreement “supplemental to” this license. Furthermore, in such an event, the parties agree that each party, as a licensee or
beneficiary (as applicable) of rights under this Agreement, shall retain and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and other applicable law, including any right by such party to specific performance of
this Agreement, since each party acknowledges and agrees that the AMD Intellectual Property Rights, the AMD Technology, the Broadcom-Owned Improvements or the Intellectual Property Rights owned by Broadcom or its Subsidiaries that cover the Broadcom
Owned Improvements are unique and that rejection of the license or covenant not to sue will cause the other party irreparable harm for which its legal remedies are inadequate; provided, however, nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute a present
exercise of such rights and elections. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or under Section 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, the parties agree and acknowledge that AMD and its Subsidiaries are not entitled to obtain embodiments
of, and Broadcom and its Subsidiaries have no obligation to disclose, Broadcom Owned Improvements or the Intellectual Property Rights owned by Broadcom or its Subsidiaries that cover the Broadcom Owned Improvements. 
  

	10.	GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS 

 10.1 Governing
Law; Venue. This Agreement and any disputes hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of California, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of
the State of California or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of California. Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of this Agreement shall be submitted to the
exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the federal and state courts located in and serving Santa Clara County, California. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of this Agreement also involves a
dispute, claim or controversy arising out of the APA, the governing law and dispute resolution provisions of the APA shall govern all such disputes, claims and controversies.

be used by the successor solely in connection with the business sold to the successor and not for any other business. Any assignment in violation of this Section shall be null and void from the beginning, and shall be deemed a material breach of
this Agreement. AMD shall not assign, transfer or otherwise divest any right, title or interest in or to AMD Technology or any of the AMD Intellectual Property Rights unless (a) such assignment, transfer or other divestiture is subject to all
of the rights granted to Broadcom under this Agreement, and (b) the Person(s) to whom such right, title or interest is transferred is informed in writing, on or before the effectiveness of such assignment, transfer or divestiture, of the rights
granted to Broadcom under this Agreement. 
 10.4 Relationship Between Parties. Broadcom and AMD shall at all times and for all
purposes be deemed to be independent contractors and neither party, its Affiliates, nor either party’s or its Affiliates’ employees, representatives, subcontractors or agents, shall have the right or power to bind the other party. This
