INDEMNITY
AGREEMENT

 

THIS
INDEMNITY AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated as of
                ,
200         , is made by and
between ViewSonic Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
and
                                                                    
(the “Indemnitee”).

 

R  E  C  I  T  A
L  S:

 

A.            Indemnitee performs a valuable
service to the Company in his capacity as a [director/officer] of the Company.

 

B.             The stockholders of the Company have adopted bylaws (the
“Bylaws”) providing for the indemnification of the directors, officers,
employees and other Agents of the Company, including persons serving at the
request of the Company in such capacities with other corporations or
enterprises, as authorized by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended
(the “Code”), under which the Company is organized and which empowers
the Company to indemnify its directors and officers by agreement and to
indemnify persons who serve, at the request of the Company, as the directors
and officers of other corporations or enterprises, and expressly provides that
the indemnification provided by the Code is not exclusive.

 

C.              The Board of Directors of the
Company has determined that contractual indemnification as set forth herein is
not only reasonable and prudent, but necessary to promote the best interests of
the Company and its stockholders.

 

D.
            The Company desires and has
requested the Indemnitee to serve or continue to serve as a director and/or
officer of the Company.

 

E.
            The Indemnitee only is willing
to serve, or to continue to serve, as a director and/or officer of the Company
if the Indemnitee is furnished the indemnity provided for herein by the
Company.

 

A  G  R  E  E  M
E  N  T :

 

NOW THEREFORE, in
consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth below, the
parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

 

1.                                        Definitions

 

(a)            Agent. For purposes of this
Agreement, “Agent” of the Company means any person who (i) is or was a
director, officer or other fiduciary of the Company or a subsidiary or
affiliate of the Company, including any employee benefit plan of the Company;
or (ii) is or was serving at the request of, for the convenience of, or to
represent the interest of the Company or an affiliate or subsidiary of the
Company as a director and/or officer of another foreign or domestic
corporation, partnership or joint venture.

 

(b)            Expenses. For purposes of
this Agreement, “Expenses” includes all direct and indirect costs of any
type or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, all attorneys’

 

1

 

fees and related disbursements, other out-of-pocket costs and
reasonable compensation for time spent by the Indemnitee for which he is not
otherwise compensated by the Company or any third party, provided that the rate
of compensation and estimated time involved is approved in advance by the Board
of Directors of the Company), actually and reasonably incurred by the
Indemnitee in connection with either the investigation, defense or appeal of a
Proceeding or establishing or enforcing a right to indemnification under this
Agreement, the Code or otherwise, and amounts paid in settlement by or on
behalf of the Indemnitee, but shall not include any judgments, fines or penalties
actually levied against the Indemnitee.

 

(c)            Proceedings. For the purposes
of this Agreement, “Proceeding” means any threatened, pending, or
completed action, suit, arbitration, other proceeding or alternative dispute
resolution mechanism or any hearing, inquiry or investigation that Indemnitee
in good faith believes might lead to the institution of the foregoing, whether
civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or any other type whatsoever.

 

(d)           Subsidiary. For purposes of
this Agreement, “Subsidiary” means any corporation of which more than
50% of the outstanding voting securities are owned directly or indirectly by
the Company, by the Company and one or more other subsidiaries, or by one or
more other subsidiaries.

 

(e)            Change in Control. For
purposes of this Agreement a “Change in Control” shall be deemed to have
occurred if (i) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), other than a trustee or
other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the
Company or a corporation owned directly or indirectly by the stockholders of
the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock
of the Company, (A) who is or becomes the beneficial owner, directly or
indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 10% or more of the
combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding Voting Securities,
increases his beneficial ownership of such securities by 5% or more over the
percentage so owned by such person, or (B) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as
defined in Rule 13d-3 under said Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of
the Company representing more than 20% of the total voting power represented by
the Company’s then outstanding Voting Securities, (ii) during any period of two
consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute
the Board of Directors of the Company and any new director whose election by
the Board of Directors or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders
was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in
office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose
election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason
to constitute a majority thereof, or (iii) the stockholders of the Company
approve a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other corporation
other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the Voting
Securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to
represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into Voting
Securities of the surviving entity) at least 80% of the total voting power
represented by the Voting Securities of the Company or such surviving entity
outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or the stockholders
of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or an
agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of (in one transaction or
a series of transactions) all or substantially all of the Company’s assets.

 

2

 

(f)             Independent Legal Counsel.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Independent
Legal Counsel” shall mean an attorney or firm of attorneys, selected in
accordance with the provisions of Section l(c) hereof, who shall not have
otherwise performed services for the Company or Indemnitee within the last
three years (other than with respect to matters concerning the rights of Indemnitee
under this Agreement, or of other indemnitees under similar indemnity
agreements).

 

(g)             Voting Securities.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Voting
Securities” shall mean any securities of the Company that vote generally in
the election of directors.

 

2.              Agreement to Serve. The Indemnitee agrees to
serve and/or continue to serve as an Agent of the Company or any Subsidiary
(including any employee benefit plan of the Company) faithfully and to be best
of his ability, at the will of such corporation (or under separate agreement,
if such agreement exists), in the capacity the Indemnitee currently serves as
an Agent of such corporation, so long as the Indemnitee is duly appointed or
elected and qualified in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bylaws
or other applicable charter documents of such corporation or of any subsidiary
thereof, or until such time as the Indemnitee tenders his resignation in
writing; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement is
intended to create any right to continued employment of the Indemnitee in any
capacity.

 

3.                                    Indemnification.

 

(a)           Indemnification in Third Party Proceedings. Subject
to Section 10 below, the Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee to the fullest
extent authorized or permitted by the Bylaws and the Code, as the same may be
amended from time to time (but, only to the extent that such amendment permits
the Company to broader indemnification rights than the Bylaws or the Code
permitted prior to adoption of such amendment), if the Indemnitee is a party to
or threatened to be made a party to or otherwise involved in any Proceeding
(other than a Proceeding by or in the name of the Company to procure a judgment
in its favor) by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee is or was an Agent of
the Company, or by reason of any act or inaction by him in any such capacity
(including, but not limited to, any written statement of the Indemnitee that
(i) is required to be, and is, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) regarding the adequacy of the Company’s internal
controls or the accuracy of reports or statements filed by the Company with the
SEC pursuant to federal laws and/or administrative regulations (each, a “Required
Statement”) or (ii) is made to another officer or employee of the Company
to support a Required Statement), against any and all Expenses and liabilities
of any type whatsoever (including, but not limited to, judgments, fines and
penalties), actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the
investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of such Proceeding, but only if
the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be
in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to
any criminal action or Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe
Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful, pursuant to the presumption set forth in
subsection (c) below, as applicable. The termination of any Proceeding by
judgment, order of court, settlement, conviction or on plea of nolo contendere,
or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the
indemnitee did not act in good faith in a manner which he reasonably believed
to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, and with
respect to any criminal proceedings, that such person had reasonable cause to
believe that his conduct was unlawful.

 

3

 

(b)           Indemnification in Derivative
Actions. Subject to Section 10 below, the Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee
to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by the Bylaws and the Code, as
the same may be amended from time to time (but, only to the extent that such
amendment permits the Company to broader indemnification rights than the Bylaws
or the Code permitted prior to adoption of such amendment), if the Indemnitee
is a party to or threatened to be made a party to or otherwise involved in any
Proceeding by or in the name of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor
by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee is or was an Agent of the Company, or
by reason of any act or inaction by him in any such capacity (including, but
not limited to, any written statement of the Indemnitee that (i) is a Required
Statement or (ii) is made to another officer or employee of the Company to
support a Required Statement), against all expenses actually and reasonably
incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense,
settlement, or appeal of such Proceedings, but only if the Indemnitee acted in
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to,
the best interests of the Company, pursuant to the presumption set forth in
subsection (c) below.

 

(c)             Conclusive Presumption Regarding Indemnitee Conduct.  With respect to Sections 3(a) and 3(b)
above, the Indemnitee shall be conclusively presumed to have acted in good
faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed
to, the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action
or Proceeding, to have had no reasonable cause to believe Indemnitee’s conduct
was unlawful, unless a determination is made that the Indemnitee has not acted
in accordance with the standards set forth above (i) by the Board of Directors
by a majority vote of a quorum thereof consisting of directors who were not
parties to the Proceeding due to which a claim is made under this Agreement,
(ii) by the stockholders of the Company by a majority vote of stockholders who
were not parties to such a Proceeding, or (iii) in a written opinion of
independent legal counsel, selection of whom has been approved by the
Indemnitee in writing or by a panel of arbitrators, one of whom is selected by
the Company, another of whom is selected by the Indemnitee and the last of whom
is selected by the first two arbitrators so selected.

 

(d)           Change in Control. The Company
agrees that if there is a Change in Control of the Company (other than a Change
in Control which has been approved by a majority of the Company’s Board of
Directors who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control) then,
with respect to all matters thereafter arising concerning the rights of
Indemnitees to payments of Expenses under this Agreement or any other agreement
or under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws as now or
hereafter in effect, Independent Legal Counsel (as defined in Section 1 hereof)
shall be selected by Indemnitee and approved by the Company (which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld). Such counsel, among other things, shall
render its written opinion to the Company and Indemnitee as to whether and to
what extent Indemnitee would be permitted to be indemnified under applicable
law and the Company agrees to abide by such opinion. The Company agrees to pay
the reasonable fees of the Independent Legal Counsel referred to above and to
fully indemnify such counsel against any and all expenses (including attorneys’
fees), claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto.

 

4

 

4.              Indemnification of Expenses of
Successful Party. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement,
to the extent that the Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or
otherwise in defense of any Proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or
mailer therein, including the dismissal of any action without prejudice, the
Company shall indemnify the Indemnitee against all expenses actually and
reasonably incurred in connection with the investigation, defense or appeal of
such Proceeding.

 

5.             Partial Indemnification. If
the Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to
indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of any expenses or
liabilities of any type whatsoever (including, but not limited to, judgments,
fines or penalties) actually and reasonably incurred by him in the
investigation, defense, settlement or appeal of a Proceeding but is not
entitled, however, to indemnification for the total amount thereof, the Company
shall nevertheless indemnify the Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which
the Indemnitee is entitled.

 

6.              Advancement of Expenses.
Subject to Section 10(b) below, the Company shall advance all Expenses incurred
by the Indemnitee in connection with the investigation, defense, settlement or
appeal of any Proceeding to which the Indemnitee is a party or is threatened to
be made a party by reason of the fact that the Indemnitee is or was an Agent of
the Company. The Indemnitee hereby undertakes to repay such amounts advanced
only if, and to the extent that, it shall ultimately be determined that the
Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized by
this Agreement. The advances to be made hereunder shall be paid by the Company
to or on behalf of the Indemnitee within 30 days following delivery of a
written request therefor by the Indemnitee to the Company and a confirmation by
Indemnitee of the undertaking to repay the Company.

 

7.                                        Notice and Other Indemnification Procedures.

 

(a)
           Notification of Proceeding.
Within 30 days after receipt by the Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of
or the threat of commencement of any Proceeding, the Indemnitee shall, if the
Indemnitee believes that indemnification with respect thereto may be sought
from the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company of the commencement
or threat of commencement thereof.

 

(b)
          Request for Indemnification.
Any indemnification requested by the Indemnitee under Section 3 hereof shall be
made no later than 10 days after receipt of the written request of the
Indemnitee, unless a good faith determination is made within said 10-day period
in accordance with ore of the methods set forth in Section 3(c) above that the
indemnitee is not or (subject to final judgment or other final adjudication as
provided in Section 10(a) below) ultimately will not be entitled to
indemnification hereunder.

 

(c)           Application for Enforcement.  Notwithstanding a determination under
Section 7(b) above that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification with
respect to any specific Proceeding, the Indemnitee shall have the right to
apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of enforcing the
Indemnitee’s right to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement. In such an enforcement
hearing or Proceeding, the burden of proving by clear and convincing evidence
that indemnification or advances are not appropriate shall be on the

 

5

 

Company. Neither the failure
of the Company (including its Board of Directors, stockholders, independent
legal counsel or the panel of arbitrators) to have made a determination prior
to the commencement of such action that the Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification hereunder, nor an actual determination by the Company
(including its Board of Directors or independent legal counsel or the panel of
arbitrators) that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification hereunder,
shall be a defense to the action or create any presumption that the Indemnitee
is not entitled to indemnification hereunder.

 

(d)           Indemnification of Certain Expenses. The Company
shall indemnify the Indemnitee against all expenses incurred in connection with
any hearing or Proceeding under this Section 7 unless the Company prevails by
clear and convincing evidence in such hearing or Proceeding.

 

8.
             Assumption of Defense.
In the event the Company shall be obligated to pay the Expenses of any
Proceeding against the Indemnitee, the Company, if appropriate, shall be
entitled to assume the defense of such Proceeding, with counsel reasonably
acceptable to the Indemnitee, upon the delivery to the Indemnitee of written
notice of its election to do so. After delivery of such notice, approval of
such counsel by the Indemnitee and the retention of such counsel by the
Company, the Company shall not be liable to the Indemnitee under this Agreement
for any fees of counsel subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee with respect to
the same Proceeding, provided that (a) the Indemnitee shall have the right to
employ his counsel in such Proceeding at the Indemnitee’s expense; and (b) if
(i) the employment of counsel by the Indemnitee has been previously authorized
in writing by the Company, (ii) the Indemnitee’s counsel delivers a written
notice to the Company stating that such counsel has reasonably concluded that
there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and the Indemnitee in
the conduct of any such defense or (iii) the Company shall not, in fact, have
employed counsel to assume the defense of such Proceeding within a reasonable
time, then in any such event the fees and expenses of the Indemnitee’s counsel
reasonably and actually incurred shall be at the expense of the Company.

 

9.
            Insurance. The Company
shall obtain and maintain during the term of this Agreement directors’ and
officers’ liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”) with respect to
which the Indemnitee is named as an insured. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify
the Indemnitee for expenses, judgments, fines or penalties which have been paid
directly to the Indemnitee by D&O Insurance. If the Company has D&O
Insurance in effect at the time the Company receives from the Indemnitee any
notice of the commencement of a Proceeding, the Company shall give prompt
notice of the commencement of such Proceeding to the insurers in accordance
with the procedures set forth in the policy. The Company shall thereafter take
all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of
the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in
accordance with the terms of such policy.

 

In the event that either (i)
the D&O Insurance policy is renewed but the renewed policy does not provide
for prior act’s coverage, (ii) the Company obtains a new D&O Insurance
policy for period following the termination of the prior policy, and such new
policy does not provide for prior act’s coverage, or (iii) the Company does not
renew the policy or obtain a new policy following the termination of a policy,
then unless otherwise determined by the Board, the

 

6

 

Company shall add to the policy or the applicable successor policy a
run-off endorsement (the “Endorsement”) on the existing policy or the
applicable successor policy subject to substantially the same terms and
conditions. Unless otherwise approved by the Board, the Endorsement shall be
non-cancelable and shall provide for the three-year extended reporting period
for any and all claims covered under the policy. The Company shall pay all
premiums, commissions and other costs or charges incurred in obtaining the
Endorsement and shall promptly deliver to Indemnitee a Certificate of
Confirmation of Insurance with respect to such Endorsement.

 

10.            Exceptions.

 

(a)           Certain Matters. Any provision herein to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement to indemnify the Indemnitee on account of any
Proceeding with respect to (i) remuneration paid to the Indemnitee if it is
determined by final judgment or other final adjudication that such remuneration
was in violation of law (and, in this respect, both the Company and the
Indemnitee have been advised that the SEC believes that indemnification for
liabilities arising under the federal securities laws is against public policy
and is, therefore, unenforceable and that claims for indemnification should be
submitted to appropriate courts for adjudication, as indicated in Section 10(e)
below); (ii) which final judgment is rendered against the Indemnitee for an
accounting, disgorgement or repayment of profits made from the purchase or sale
by the Indemnitee of securities of the Company pursuant to the provisions of
Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or other
provisions of any federal, state or local statute; (iii) which (but only to the
extent that) it is determined by final judgment or other final adjudication
that the Indemnitee’s conduct was in bad faith, knowingly fraudulent or
deliberately dishonest or constituted willful misconduct; or (iv) on account of
conduct that is established by a final judgment as constituting a breach of
Indemnitee’s duty of loyalty to the Company or resulting in any personal profit
or advantage to which Indemnitee is not legally entitled. For purposes of the
foregoing sentence, a final judgment or other adjudication may be reached in
either the underlying Proceeding or action in connection with which
indemnification is sought or a separate proceeding or action to establish
rights and liabilities under this Agreement.

 

(b)
          Claims Initiated by the
Indemnitee. Any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Company shall not be obligated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to
indemnify or advance expenses to the Indemnitee with respect to proceedings or
claims initiated or brought voluntarily by the Indemnitee against the Company
or its directors, officers, employees or other agents and not by way of
defense, except with respect to proceedings brought to establish or enforce a
right to indemnification under this Agreement or any other statute or law or
otherwise as required under the Code, but such indemnification or advancement
of expenses may be provided by the Company in specific cases if the Board of
Directors of the Company finds it to be appropriate.

 

(c)
          Action for Indemnification.
Any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall be
obligated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to indemnify the Indemnitee
for any expenses incurred by the Indemnitee with respect to any proceeding
instituted by the Indemnitee to enforce or interpret this Agreement unless the
Company prevails in such proceeding by clear and convincing evidence.

 

7

 

(d)
          Unauthorized Settlements.
Any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be
obligated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to indemnify the Indemnitee
under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of a Proceeding
effected without the Company’s written consent. Neither the Company nor the
Indemnitee shall unreasonably withhold consent to any proposed settlement;
provided, however, that the Company may in any event decline to consent to (or
to otherwise admit or agree to any liability for indemnification hereunder in
respect of) any proposed settlement if the Company determines in good faith
(pursuant to Section 7(b) above) that the Indemnitee is not or ultimately will
not be entitled to indemnification hereunder.

 

(e)
           Securities Act Liabilities.
Any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company shall not be
obligated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to indemnify the Indemnitee
or otherwise act in violation of any undertaking appearing in and required by
the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Act”) in any registration statement filed with the SEC
under the Act. The Indemnitee acknowledges that paragraph (h) of Item 512 of
Regulation S-K currently generally requires the Company to undertake in
connection with any registration statement filed under the Act to submit the
issue of the enforceability of the Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement in
connection with any liability under the Act on public policy grounds to a court
of appropriate jurisdiction and to be governed by any final adjudication of
such issue. The Indemnitee specifically agrees that any such undertaking shall
supersede the provisions of this Agreement and to be bound by any such
undertaking.

 

11.          Non-Exclusivity and Survival of Rights. The
provisions for indemnification and advancement of expenses set forth in this
Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights which the Indemnitee
may have under any provision of law, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation
or Bylaws, in any court in which a Proceeding is brought, the vote of the
Company’s stockholders or disinterested directors, other agreements or
otherwise, both as to action in the Indemnitee’s official capacity and to
action in another capacity while occupying his position as an Agent of the
Company, and the Indemnitee’s rights hereunder shall continue after the
Indemnitee has ceased acting as an Agent of the Company and shall inure to the
benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of the Indemnitee. The
Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase,
merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business
or assets of the Company, expressly to assume and agree to perform this
Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be
required to perform if no such succession had taken place. Any provision herein
to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may provide, in specific cases,
the Indemnitee with full or partial indemnification if the Board of Directors
of the Company determines that such indemnification is appropriate.

 

12.           Subrogation. In the event of payment under this
Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all
of the rights of recovery of the Indemnitee, who, at the request and expense of
the Company, shall execute all papers required and shall do everything that may
be reasonably necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such
documents necessary to enable the Company effectively to bring suit to enforce
such rights.
