(b)    The closing of the issuance of New Shares (“New Shares Closing”) shall take place within [***] Business Days after all required approvals have been obtained by Micron or its nominees including, without limitation, approval of the Taiwan Investment Commission, if applicable.  NTC shall reasonably cooperate with the efforts of Micron or its nominees in obtaining such approvals.  Prior to the New Shares Closing, NTC shall pay to Micron a fee (“License Fee”) equal to the aggregate subscription price for the Designated Number of New Shares (“New Shares Purchase Price”) sufficiently in advance of the New Shares Closing to allow Micron to pay the New Shares Purchase Price to NTC on the date of the New Shares Closing. 
(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 4.7, if any taxes are required to be deducted or withheld from NTC’s payment of the License Fee to Micron pursuant to the preceding paragraph, then the amount payable by NTC to Micron shall be increased by such amount as is necessary to make the actual amount received by Micron (after such taxes and after any additional taxes on account of such additional payment) equal to the amount due before the application of any such taxes.  
(d)    The “Designated Number” of New Shares shall be that number of shares that is equal in value to [***] percent ([***]%) of the total value of all shares of NTC existing on the date of the Equity Payment Event.  Thus, the value of the Designated Number of New Shares shall be equal in value to [***] percent ([***]%) of the total equity of NTC existing on the date of the Equity Payment Event.  
(e)    The “Equity Payment Event” shall be deemed to occur on the later of: 
(i)    the date on which Micron completes the delivery of information under Section 3.2(a), the provision of wafers under Section 3.2(b), and the transfer session under Section 3.2(c) (“Event A”);

9.2    Waiver.  The failure at any time of a Party to require performance by the other Party of any responsibility or obligation required by this Agreement shall in no way affect a Party’s right to require such performance at any time thereafter, nor shall the waiver by a Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by the other Party constitute a waiver of any other breach of the same or any other provision nor constitute a waiver of the responsibility or obligation itself.
9.3    Assignment.  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of each Party hereto; provided, however, that neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned or delegated by either Party (including, without limitation, by merger, operation of law, or through the transfer of substantially all of the equity, assets, or business of a Party to this Agreement) in whole or in part to any other Person without the prior written consent of the non-assigning Party.  Any purported assignment in violation of the provisions of this Section 9.3 shall be null and void and have no effect.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Micron may assign and delegate its rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Affiliate of Micron without the consent of NTC, and in such case, Micron shall promptly notify NTC of such assignment or delegation.
9.4    Third Party Rights.  Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer, directly or indirectly, upon or give to any Person, other than the Parties hereto, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any covenant, condition or other provision. 
9.5    Force Majeure.  The Parties shall be excused from any failure to perform any obligation hereunder to the extent such failure is caused by a Force Majeure Event.

9.7    Jurisdiction; Venue.  Any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement shall be brought in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of California, USA, and each of the Parties to this Agreement hereby consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding which is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.  
9.8    Inspection and Audit.  Without limiting any other rights or remedies of Micron under this Agreement,  Micron shall have the right to have an independent Third Party auditor inspect and audit, [***] and upon reasonable advance written notice, during normal business hours and on a confidential basis subject to an obligation of confidentiality, the facilities and records of NTC relevant to NTC’s compliance with the conditions and limitations set forth herein (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in Article 2).  NTC shall, for at least a period of [***] from the date of their creation, keep complete and accurate records concerning compliance with such conditions and limitations (including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in Article 2). If any such audit shows material noncompliance by NTC, then without limiting or waiving any remedies of Micron, Micron shall be entitled to, and NTC shall promptly reimburse Micron for, the reasonable costs and expenses of the audit.
9.9    Headings.  The headings of the Articles and Sections in this Agreement are provided for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part hereof.
9.10    Export Compliance.  Each Party agrees that it will not knowingly:  (a) export or re‐export, directly or indirectly, any technical data (as defined by the U.S. Export Administration Regulations) provided by the other Party or (b) disclose such technical data for use in, or export or re-export directly or indirectly, any direct product of such technical data, including Software, to any destination to which such export or re-export is restricted or prohibited by United States or non‐United States law, without obtaining prior authorization from the U.S. Department of Commerce and other competent Government Entities to the extent required by Applicable Laws.
9.11    Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, together with its Schedules and the agreements and instruments expressly provided for herein, including the applicable terms of the other Joint Venture Documents, constitute the entire agreement of the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, amendments and understandings, oral and written, between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, provided that, in the event that any right, obligation or other provision of this Agreement conflicts with any right, obligation or provision of that certain Waiver and Consent Side Letter Agreement, entered into by and between the Parties and effective October 11, 2012, as amended, the Waiver and Consent Side Letter Agreement shall prevail, and the Parties shall conduct their affairs to give effect to such rights, obligations or provisions as are set forth in the Waiver and Consent Side Letter Agreement.
9.12    Severability.  Should any provision of this Agreement be deemed in contradiction with the laws of any jurisdiction in which it is to be performed or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be deemed null and void, but this Agreement shall remain in full force in all other respects.  Should any provision of this Agreement be or become ineffective because of changes in Applicable Laws or interpretations thereof, or should this Agreement fail to include a provision that is required as a matter of law, the validity of the other provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.  If such circumstances arise, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith appropriate modifications to this Agreement to reflect those changes that are required by Applicable Law.
9.13    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
