INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MATTERS AGREEMENT

 

THIS INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MATTERS AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of August 1, 2014 (“Effective Date”), by and between Agilent Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Agilent”), and Keysight Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Keysight”).  Agilent and Keysight are each a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”.  Each reference to the words “Party” or “Parties” herein shall refer collectively to such Party or Parties on its or their own behalf and on behalf of each of its or their Affiliates.

 

W I T N E S S E T H:

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement entered into by and between Keysight and Agilent (the “Separation Agreement”), the Parties have agreed to separate the Keysight Business from Agilent; and

 

WHEREAS, it is the intent of the Parties, in accordance with the Separation Agreement and the other agreements and instruments provided for therein, that Agilent convey, and cause its Affiliates to convey, to Keysight and its Affiliates substantially all of the business and assets of the Keysight Business and that Keysight and its Affiliates assume certain of the liabilities related to the Keysight Business; and

 

WHEREAS, it is the intent of the Parties that Agilent convey, and cause its Affiliates to convey, certain intellectual property rights and certain technology to Keysight, to license certain other intellectual property rights to Keysight, and for Keysight and its Affiliates to grant a license back to Agilent of the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements set forth below, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

 

ARTICLE I

 

DEFINITIONS AND RULES OF CONSTRUCTION

 

1.1                               Definitions.  Unless otherwise defined in this Agreement, including Exhibit A hereto, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Separation Agreement.  In the event of any conflict between the definitions in this Agreement and in the Separation Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

ARTICLE II

 

TRANSFERRED INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AND TECHNOLOGY

 

2.1                               Assignment of Intellectual Property Rights.  Agilent agrees to, and agrees to cause its Affiliates to, grant, assign and convey to Keysight all of Agilent’s and its Affiliates’ rights, title and interest in and to the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights and Transferred Trademarks.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights are transferred subject to the licenses granted to Agilent in Article IV below and all other licenses granted under any such Intellectual Property Rights existing and in force as of the Effective Date (subject to the terms and conditions contained in each such license agreement).  The Transferred Intellectual Property Rights and Transferred Trademarks include all of Agilent’s and its Affiliates’ right, title, and interest in and to any and all proceeds, causes of action, and rights of recovery against Third Parties for past and future infringement, misappropriation, or other violation or impairment of any of the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights or Transferred Trademarks.  The Parties shall execute intellectual property assignments in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit B, Composite Intellectual Property Assignment Agreements (namely: B1 (patent) (the “Patent Assignment Agreement”); B2 (trademark) (the “Trademark Assignment Agreement”); B3 (copyright and mask works) (“The Copyright and Mask Work Assignment); and B4 (trade secret) (“ The Trade Secret Assignment”) as well as such additional case specific assignments as deemed appropriate to carry out the intent of the parties, (collectively the “Intellectual Property Assignment Agreements”).  Agilent shall cause its Affiliates to do so as appropriate, to document the transfer of the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights and Transferred Trademarks.

 

(a)                                 Recording Change of Ownership of the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights and Transferred Trademarks.  Keysight shall have the sole responsibility, at its sole cost and expense, to file the Intellectual Property Assignment Agreements and any other forms or documents as required to record the assignment of the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights and Transferred Trademarks from Agilent and its Affiliates to Keysight; provided, however, that, upon request, Agilent shall provide reasonable assistance to Keysight to record the assignment, at Keysight’s sole cost and expense.

 

(b)                                 Responsibility for Transferred Patents.  Agilent shall provide on or before the Effective Date a listing of all actions and fees due up to ninety (90) days after the Effective Date for the Transferred Patents in all relevant jurisdictions.  Agilent shall pay all fees incurred and respond to all office actions due up to and including the Effective Date.  Keysight shall, in its sole discretion, pay all fees incurred and respond to all office actions due

subsequent to the Effective Date.  Agilent shall forward to Keysight via electronic mail sent to notice.legal@Keysight.com and keydocketing@cpaglobal.com copies of all patent office correspondence received by Agilent and copies of all patent attorney and agent correspondence received by Agilent related to the Transferred Patents for ninety (90) days after the Distribution Date.  Agilent shall provide on or before the Effective Date a copy of all digitally stored files relating to the Transferred Patents, and shall retain in accordance with Agilent’s retention policy for Agilent patents, any hard-copy records related to the Transferred Patents (“Keysight Patent Records”) in Agilent’s possession as of the Effective Date, and Agilent shall provide Keysight with timely access to the Keysight Patent Records during normal business hours upon Keysight’s reasonable request.  The foregoing notwithstanding, in no case shall Agilent’s obligation to retain any Keysight Patent Records extend beyond ten (10) years from the Effective Date. The provisions in this Section 2.1(b) recite the only responsibilities of Agilent for the Transferred Patents after the Effective Date.

 

2.2                               Assignment of Intellectual Property Licenses.  Agilent agrees to, and agrees to cause its Affiliates to, assign and convey to Keysight, the Transferred Licenses, subject to the terms, conditions, and restrictions of each Transferred License.  Keysight acknowledges and agrees that it shall have sole responsibility to seek and obtain the consent of any Third Party necessary for the transfer of any of the Transferred Licenses, and shall bear sole responsibility for any consideration necessary for their transfer; provided, however, that upon request Agilent will provide reasonable assistance in obtaining such consent, at Keysight’s (or its Affiliates’) sole expense.  For the avoidance of doubt, and subject to the terms and conditions of the Transferred Licenses, upon the assignment and conveyance of the Transferred Licenses to Keysight, Keysight shall succeed to all of the rights, responsibilities, duties, obligations, and liabilities of Agilent and Agilent’s Affiliates under each such Transferred License, including, without limitation, any liabilities arising under such Transferred License prior to the date of such assignment and conveyance, which liabilities shall be the responsibility of Keysight.

 

2.3                               Transfer of Business Technology.  For the avoidance of doubt, the transfer of the Business Technology as set forth in the Separation Agreement does not include the transfer of any Intellectual Property Rights in or to the Business Technology; such Intellectual Property Rights are either transferred to Keysight as Transferred Intellectual Property Rights in Section 2.1 above or are licensed to Keysight in Section 3.1 below.

 

2.4                               Common Heritage Copyrights.  Common Heritage Copyrights (e.g., photos from the Agilent business archives) shall be deemed to be co-authored and co-owned by Agilent and Keysight.  Upon Keysight written request, Agilent and its Affiliates shall execute documents confirming the assignment of such co-ownership interest to Keysight.  Each co-owner shall be free to exercise full rights to the Common Heritage Copyrights without consent and without accounting to the other co-owner.

 

2.5                               Common Infrastructure Copyrights.  Common Infrastructure Copyrights shall be co-owned by Agilent and Keysight.   Upon Keysight written request, Agilent and its Affiliates shall execute documents confirming the assignment of such co-ownership interest to Keysight.  Subject to Article 6, below, each co-owner shall be free to exploit the Common Infrastructure Copyrights without further consent and without accounting to the other co-owner.

(a)                                 The parties acknowledge that some of the materials associated with Common Infrastructure Copyrights (e.g., documents, PowerPoint slides, photo libraries, etc.) may also contain Third Party-owned copyrighted material (“3POCM”) such as fonts, images and graphics, which are licensed to Agilent.  This provision therefore does not extend to such 3POCM, and Keysight is solely responsible for obtaining its own licenses to the 3POCM.   Keysight shall also indemnify and hold Agilent harmless from all claims by Third Parties arising out of or relating to Keysight’s unlicensed use of the 3POCM.

 

(b)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the use of any Common Infrastructure Copyrights by or for Keysight, and any works related to, or based upon, any of the Common Infrastructure Copyrights, may not contain any references to Agilent (or any of Agilent’s marks, names, trade dress, logos or other source or business identifiers, including the Agilent Name and Agilent Marks), Agilent’s publications, Agilent’s personnel (including senior management), Agilent’s management structures or any other indication (other than the verbatim or paraphrased reproduction of the content) that such works are based upon any of Common Infrastructure Copyrights that originated with Agilent.

 

(c)                                  Neither Agilent nor Keysight shall have any obligation to the other to (i) notify of any changes or proposed changes to any of the Common Infrastructure Copyrights, (ii) include the other in any consideration of proposed changes to any of the Common Infrastructure Copyrights, (iii) provide draft changes of any of the Common Infrastructure Copyrights to the other for review and/or comment, or (iv) provide the other with any updated materials relating to any of the Common Infrastructure Copyrights.

 

2.6                               Common Infrastructure Trade Secrets.  Common Infrastructure Trade Secrets shall be co-owned by Agilent and Keysight.   Upon Keysight written request, Agilent and its Affiliates shall execute docments confirming the assignment of such co-ownership interest to Keysight.  Subject to Article 6, below, each co-owner shall be free to exploit the Common Infrastructure Trade Secrets without further consent and without accounting to the other co-owner.  Neither of the joint owners (Keysight, Agilent) shall make a Common Infrastructure Trade Secret public or otherwise destroy or impair the trade secret status of Common Infrastructure Trade Secret without the express, advance, written consent of the other joint owner.

 

ARTICLE III

 

LICENSES FROM AGILENT TO KEYSIGHT

 

3.1                               License Grants.  Agilent grants, agrees to grant, and agrees to cause its Affiliates to, grant to Keysight and its Affiliates the following personal, irrevocable (except as set forth in Article VIII and IX below), non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free and non-transferable (except as specified below in Article VIII below) licenses under Licensed Agilent IPR subject to the terms of this Agreement as follows:

 

(a)                                 Patents.  Under the patents included in Licensed Agilent IPR, to do the following with regard to Keysight Products solely within the Keysight Field:  (i) to make (including the right to practice methods, processes, and procedures), (ii) to have made (subject

 

4

 

to Section 3.2), and (iii) to use, lease, sell, offer for sale, and import.  The Agilent Patent licenses set forth in this Section 3.1(a) shall expire, with respect to each individual licensed Patent, upon the expiration of the term of each such Agilent Patent.

 

(b)                                 Trademarks.  As to certain Trademarks owned by Agilent or its Affiliates as of the Effective Date, Agilent agrees to grant Keysight a license as set forth in the Trademark License Agreement (TLA), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit E.  To the extent there is a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the TLA, the terms of the TLA shall control.

 

(c)                                  Copyrights.  Under the copyrights that are included in Licensed Agilent IPR, (i) to reproduce and have reproduced the works of authorship included therein and derivative works thereof prepared by or on behalf of Keysight, in whole or in part, solely as part of Keysight Products in the Keysight Field, (ii) to prepare derivative works or have derivative works prepared for it based upon such works of authorship solely to create Keysight Products in the Keysight Field, (iii) to distribute (by any means and using any technology, whether now known or unknown) copies of the works of authorship included therein (and derivative works thereof prepared by or on behalf of Keysight) to the public by sale or other transfer of ownership or by rental, lease or lending, solely as part of Keysight Products in the Keysight Field, (iv) to perform (by any means and using any technology, whether now known or unknown, including electronic transmission) and display the works of authorship included therein (and derivatives works thereof prepared by or on behalf of Keysight), in all cases solely as part of Keysight Products in the Keysight Field, and (v) to use such works of authorship (and derivative works thereof prepared by or on behalf of Keysight) to design, develop, manufacture and have manufactured (subject to Section 3.2), sell and support Keysight Products in the Keysight Field.

 

The parties acknowledge that some of the materials licensed under this provision (e.g., documents, PowerPoint slides, photo libraries, etc.) also contain 3POCM such as fonts, images and graphics, which are licensed to Agilent but that are not sub-licensable to Keysight.  The license granted under this provision, therefore, does not extend to the use of such 3POCM, and Keysight is solely responsible for obtaining its own licenses to the 3POCM.   Keysight shall also indemnify and hold Agilent harmless from all claims by Third Parties arising out of or relating to Keysight’s unlicensed use of the 3POCM.

 

(d)                                 Database Rights.  Under Database Rights included in Licensed Agilent IPR, to extract data from the databases included therein and to re-utilize such data (and Improvements thereof prepared by or on behalf of Keysight) solely to design, develop, manufacture and have manufactured (subject to Section 3.2), sell and support Keysight Products in the Keysight Field.

 

(e)                                  Mask Works Rights.  Under Mask Work Rights included in Licensed Agilent IPR, (i) to reproduce and have reproduced (subject to Section 3.2), by optical, electronic or any other means, mask works and semiconductor topologies included in the Business Technology and embodied in Keysight Products solely in the Keysight Field, (ii) to import or distribute a product in which any such mask work or semiconductor topology is embodied, and (iii) to permit Third Parties to do any of the foregoing.

 

5

 

(f)                                   Trade Secrets and Industrial Designs.  Under Agilent and its Affiliates Trade Secrets and Industrial Designs included in Licensed Agilent IPR, solely to design, develop, manufacture and have manufactured (subject to Section 3.2), sell and maintain Keysight Products in the Keysight Field.  Since laboratory notebooks being retained by Agilent may contain information about a mix of Agilent and Keysight IPR, Agilent shall retain such laboratory notebooks in accordance with Agilent’s current retention policy for Agilent laboratory notebooks, and Agilent shall provide Keysight with timely access to such laboratory notebooks during normal business hours upon reasonable request.

 

(g)                                  Third-Party Licenses.  With respect to Intellectual Property Rights licensed to Agilent or its Affiliates by a Third Party, the license grants set forth in this Article III shall be subject to all of the conditions set forth in the relevant license agreement between Agilent (or its Affiliate, as the case may be) and such Third Party, in addition to all of the terms, conditions, and restrictions set forth herein.  Licenses to Keysight under Intellectual Property Rights owned by a Third Party shall expire on the expiration of the term of the corresponding license agreement between such Third Party and Agilent (or its Affiliate, as the case may be).

 

(h)                                 Access Methods.  Keysight acknowledges and agrees that, subsequent to the Distribution Date, Keysight and its Affiliates may no longer use de-encryption algorithms or other access methods that were previously provided by Agilent to internal Agilent users to enable those internal Agilent users to use locked or encrypted copies of Agilent Commercial Software or other software, except to the extent necessary to continue using those copies rightfully in use before the Distribution Date.  Any access after the Distribution Date by Keysight, or a Keysight Affiliate, to additional copies of such Agilent Commercial Software beyond those copies rightfully in use before the Distribution Date, or to support, updates, revisions or service, shall be as separately agreed with Agilent or with an appropriate Third Party software vendor.

 

(i)                                     Software.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing licenses granted in this Section 3.1, or transfer of rights with respect to software transferred to Keysight pursuant to Section 2.3 above, such licenses include the right to use, modify, and reproduce in source code and object code for such software (and Improvements thereof made by or on behalf of Keysight) solely to create Keysight Products in the Keysight Field, and to sell and maintain such software, in source code and object code form, as part of such Keysight Products; provided, however, that with respect to Agilent Commercial Software, Keysight shall be limited to using no more than ten percent (10%) of the lines of code of any Agilent Commercial Software in any Keysight Product sold or maintained by Keysight or its Affiliates to a Third Party after the Distribution Date (it being understood that such restriction shall not apply, however, to Keysight’s use of any software code contained in any Keysight Commercial Software to the extent that Keysight desires to continue to sell such Keysight Product in a form containing such software code or Improvements thereto).

 

(j)                                    Termination of Licenses to a Non-Affiliate.  Any and all licenses granted by Agilent to an Affiliate of Keysight hereunder shall terminate immediately at the time such entity is no longer an Affiliate of Keysight.

 

6

 

3.2                               Have Made Rights.  The licenses to Keysight and its Affiliates in Section 3.1 above shall include the right to have contract manufacturers and foundries manufacture Keysight Products for Keysight or its Affiliates (including private label or OEM versions of such products) solely within the Keysight Field, and are not intended to include foundry or contract manufacturing activities that Keysight or any of its Affiliates may undertake on behalf of Third Parties, whether directly or indirectly.

 

3.3                               Sublicenses.  The licenses granted to Keysight in Section 3.1 above shall not include any right to grant any sublicenses except as follows:

 

(a)                                 Affiliates.  Keysight may grant sublicenses to its Affiliates, even if they become Keysight Affiliates after the Distribution Date, within the scope of its licenses in Section 3.1 above with no right for such Affiliates to grant further sublicenses other than, (i) to another Affiliate of Keysight, even if it become an Affiliate of Keysight after the Distribution Date; provided, however, that sublicensing shall not be allowed to any entity which acquires Affiliate status as the result of a Change of Control, and any such sublicense shall only be effective for such time as such entity remains an Affiliate of Keysight, and (ii) as provided in Section 3.3(c), below.

 

(b)                                 Retroactivity.  Any sublicense granted pursuant to Section 3.3(a) above may be made effective retroactively, but shall not be effective for any time prior to the sublicensee’s becoming an Affiliate of Keysight, and shall only be effective for such times that such entity remains an Affiliate of Keysight.

 

(c)                                  For Resale and End Users.  Keysight and its Affiliates may grant sublicenses to its distributors, resellers, OEM customers, VAR customers, VAD customers, systems integrators and other channels of distribution and to its end user customers solely with respect to Keysight Products and solely within the scope of the licenses set forth in Section 3.1 above; provided, however, that any such sublicense by an Affiliate shall only be effective for such times that such sublicensing entity remains an Affiliate of Keysight.

 

3.4                               Improvements.  As between Agilent and its Affiliates on the one hand, and Keysight and its Affiliates on the other hand, Keysight hereby retains all right, title and interest, including all Intellectual Property Rights, in and to any Improvements made by or on behalf of Keysight from and after the Effective Date (a) to any of the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights or Business Technology, or (b) in the exercise of the licenses granted to it by Agilent and its Affiliates in this Article III, subject in each case only to the ownership interests of Agilent, its Affiliates, and Third Parties in the underlying Intellectual Property Rights that are improved.  Keysight shall not have any obligation under this Agreement to notify Agilent or its Affiliates of any such Improvements made by or on behalf of it or its Affiliates or to disclose or license any such Improvements to Agilent or its Affiliates.

 

3.5                               Agilent Restricted Patents.  Agilent hereby covenants on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates that, unless obligated to do so by any Third Party agreement existing as of the Effective Date, it will not assert against Keysight or a Keysight Affiliate any Agilent Restricted Patent that would have been licensed hereunder but for the restriction against Agilent or its Affiliates licensing such Patent to Keysight contained in a Third Party agreement.

Such covenant shall be with respect to any conduct that would have otherwise been licensed hereunder.  Such covenant shall be effective to the extent permitted by the Third Party agreement.

 

ARTICLE IV

 

LICENSES FROM KEYSIGHT TO AGILENT

 

4.1                               License Grants.  Keysight grants, agrees to grant, and agrees to cause its Affiliates to grant, to Agilent and its Affiliates the following personal, irrevocable (except as set forth in Article VIII and IX below), non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free and non-transferable (except as set forth in Article VIII below) licenses under the Licensed Keysight IPR subject to the terms of this Agreement as follows:

 

(a)                                 Patents.  Under the patents included in Licensed Keysight IPR, to do the following with regard to Agilent Products in the Agilent Field: (i) to make (including the right to practice methods, processes and procedures), (ii) to have made (subject to Section 4.2), and (iii) to use, lease, sell, offer for sale and import.  The Keysight Patent licenses set forth in this Section 4.1(a) shall expire, with respect to each individual licensed Patent, upon the expiration of the term of each such Keysight Patent.

 

(b)                                 Copyrights.  Under the copyrights included in Licensed Keysight IPR, (i) to reproduce and have reproduced (subject to Section 4.2) the works of authorship included therein and derivative works thereof prepared by or on behalf of Agilent, in whole or in part, solely as part of Agilent Products in the Agilent Field, (ii) to prepare derivatives or have derivative works prepared for it based upon such works of authorship solely to create Agilent Products in the Agilent Field, (iii) to distribute (by any means and using any technology, whether now known or unknown) copies of the works of authorship included therein (and derivative works thereof prepared by or on behalf of Agilent) to the public by sale or other transfer of ownership or by rental, lease or lending, solely as part of Agilent Products in the Agilent Field, (iv) to perform (by any means and using any technology, whether now known or unknown, including, without limitation, electronic transmission) and display the works of authorship included therein (and derivative works thereof prepared by or on behalf of Agilent), in all cases solely as part of Agilent Products in the Agilent Field, and (v) to use such works of authorship (and derivative works thereof prepared by or on behalf of Agilent) solely to design, develop, manufacture and have manufactured (subject to Section 4.2), sell and support Agilent Products in the Agilent Field.

 

The parties acknowledge that some of the materials licensed under this provision (e.g. documents, PowerPoint slides, photo libraries, etc.) also contain 3POCM such as fonts, images and graphics, which are licensed to Keysight that are not sub-licensable to Agilent.  The license granted under this provision, therefore, does not extend to the use of such 3POCM, and Agilent is solely responsible for obtaining its own licenses to the 3POCM.  Agilent shall also indemnify and hold Keysight harmless from all claims by Third Parties arising out of or relating to Agilent’s unlicensed use of the 3POCM.

 

8

 

(c)                                  Database Rights.  Under the Database Rights included in Licensed Keysight IPR, to extract data from the databases included therein and to re-utilize such data (and Improvements thereof prepared by or on behalf of Agilent) solely to design, develop, manufacture and have manufactured (subject to Section 4.2), sell and support Agilent Products in the Agilent Field.

 

(d)                                 Mask Work Rights.  Under the Transferred Mask Work Rights included in Licensed Keysight IPR, (i) to reproduce and have reproduced (subject to Section 4.2), by optical, electronic or any other means, mask works and semiconductor topologies included in the Business Technology and embodied in Agilent Products solely in the Agilent Field, (ii) to import or distribute a product in which any such mask work or semiconductor topology is embodied, and (iii) to induce or knowingly to cause a Third Party to do any of the acts described in subclauses (i) and (ii) above.

 

(e)                                  Trade Secrets and Industrial Designs.  Under the Transferred Trade Secrets and Industrial Designs included in Licensed Keysight IPR solely to design, develop, manufacture and have manufactured (subject to Section 4.2), sell and maintain Agilent Products in the Agilent Field.

 

(f)                                   Third-Party Licenses.  With respect to Intellectual Property Rights licensed to Keysight or its Affiliates by a Third Party, the license grants set forth in this Article IV shall be subject to all of the conditions set forth in the relevant license agreement between Keysight or the Keysight Affiliate and such Third Party, in addition to all of the terms, conditions and restrictions set forth herein.  Licenses to Agilent under Intellectual Property Rights owned by a Third Party shall expire on the expiration of the term of the corresponding license agreement between such Third Party and Keysight or the Keysight Affiliate, as the case may be.

 

(g)                                  Termination of Licenses to a Non-Affiliate.  Any and all licenses granted by Keysight to an Affiliate of Agilent shall terminate immediately at the time such entity is no longer an Affiliate of Agilent.

 

(h)                                 Access Methods.  Agilent acknowledges and agrees that, subsequent to the Distribution Date, Agilent and its Affiliates may no longer use de-encryption algorithms or other access methods that were previously provided by the Keysight Business to internal Agilent users to enable those internal Agilent users to use locked or encrypted copies of Keysight Commercial Software, except to the extent necessary to continue using those copies rightfully in use before the Distribution Date.  Any access after the Distribution Date by Agilent, or an Agilent Affiliate, to additional copies of such Keysight Commercial Software beyond those copies rightfully in use before the Distribution Date, or to support, updates, revisions or service, shall be as separately agreed with Keysight or with an appropriate Third Party software vendor.

 

(i)                                     Software.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing licenses granted in this Section 4.1, such licenses include the right to use, modify, and reproduce in source code and object code form such software (and Improvements thereof made by or on behalf of Agilent) solely to create Agilent Products in the Agilent Field, and to sell and

 

9

 

maintain such software, in source code and object code form, as part of such Agilent Products; provided, however, that with respect to Keysight Commercial Software, Agilent shall be limited to using no more than ten percent (10%) of the lines of code of any Keysight Commercial Software in any Agilent Product sold or maintained by Agilent or its Affiliates to a Third Party after the Distribution Date (it being understood that such restriction shall not apply, however, to Agilent’s use of any software code contained in any Agilent Commercial Software to the extent that Agilent desires to continue to sell such Agilent Product in a form containing such software code or Improvements thereto).

 

4.2                               Have Made Rights.  The licenses to Agilent and its Affiliates in Section 4.1 above shall include the right to have contract manufacturers and foundries manufacture Agilent Products for Agilent or its Affiliates (including private label or OEM versions of such products) and are not intended to include foundry or contract manufacturing activities that Agilent or any of its Affiliates may undertake on behalf of Third Parties, whether directly or indirectly.

 

4.3                               Sublicenses.  The licenses granted to Agilent in Section 4.1 above shall not include any right to grant any sublicenses except as follows:

 

(a)                                 Affiliates.  Agilent may grant sublicenses to its Affiliates, even if they become Affiliates after the Distribution Date, within the scope of its licenses in Section 4.1 above with no right for such Affiliates to grant further sublicenses other than, (i) to another Affiliate of Agilent, even if it becomes an Affiliate of Agilent after the Distribution Date; provided, however, that sublicensing shall not be allowed to any entity which acquires Affiliate status as the result of a Change of Control, and any such sublicense shall only be effective for such time as such entity remains an Affiliate of Agilent, and (ii) as provided in 4.3(c), below.

 

(b)                                 Retroactivity.  Any sublicense granted pursuant to Section 4.3(a) above may be made effective retroactively, but shall not be effective for any time prior to the sublicensee’s becoming an Affiliate of Agilent, and shall only be effective for such times that such entity remains an Affiliate of Agilent.

 

(c)                                  For Resale and End Users.  Agilent and its Affiliates may grant sublicenses to its distributors, resellers, OEM customers, VAR customers, VAD customers, systems integrators and other channels of distribution and to its end user customers solely with respect to Agilent Products and solely within the scope of the licenses set forth in Section 4.1 above, provided, however, that any such sublicense by an Affiliate shall only be effective for such times that such sublicensing entity remains an Affiliate of Agilent.

 

4.4                               Improvements.  As between Agilent and its Affiliates on the one hand, and Keysight and its Affiliates on the other hand, Agilent and its Affiliates hereby retain all right, title and interest, including all Intellectual Property Rights, in and to any Improvements made by or on behalf of Agilent or its Affiliates from and after the Effective Date in the exercise of the licenses granted to it by Keysight and Keysight’s Affiliates in this Article IV, subject only to the ownership of Keysight, Keysight Affiliates or any Third Parties in the underlying Intellectual Property Rights improved thereby.  Agilent shall not have any obligation under this

 

10

 

Agreement to notify Keysight of any such Improvements made by or on behalf of it or to disclose or license any such Improvements to Keysight or any Keysight Affiliates.

 

4.5                               Keysight Restricted Patents.  Keysight hereby covenants on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates that, unless obligated to do so by any Third Party agreement existing as of the Effective Date, it will not assert against Agilent or an Agilent Affiliate any Keysight Restricted Patent that would have been licensed hereunder but for the restriction against Keysight or its Affiliate licensing such Patent to Agilent contained in a Third Party agreement.  Such covenant shall be with respect to any conduct that would have otherwise been licensed hereunder.  Such covenant shall be effective to the extent permitted by the Third Party agreement.

 

ARTICLE V

 

ADDITIONAL INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RELATED MATTERS

 

5.1                               Assignments and Licenses.  No Party may assign or grant a license under any of such Party’s Intellectual Property Right which it has licensed to the other Party in Articles III or IV above, unless such assignment or grant is made subject to the licenses granted herein.   For the avoidance of any doubt, a non-exclusive license grant shall be deemed subject to the licenses granted herein.

 

5.2                               Assistance By Employees.  Each Party agrees that its employees and contractors have a continuing duty to assist the other Party with the prosecution of, and other patent or trademark office proceedings (e.g., reissue, reexamination, interference, inter partes review, post-grant review, etc.) regarding, the other Party’s Patent applications, Patents. Trademarks, and other Intellectual Property Rights (all of the foregoing, collectively, “Administrative IP Proceedings”). Accordingly, each Party agrees to reasonably make available to the other Party and its counsel (i) inventors and other reasonably necessary persons employed by it for the other Party’s reasonable needs regarding execution of documents, interviews, declarations, and testimony, and (ii) documents, materials, and information for the other Party’s reasonable good faith needs regarding such Administrative IP Proceedings.  Any actual and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with such assistance shall be borne by the Party involved in the Administrative IP Proceeding, expressly excluding the value of the time of the other Party’s personnel (regarding which the Parties shall agree on a case by case basis with respect to reasonable compensation).

 

5.3                               Inventor Compensation.  Each Party will be responsible for providing inventor incentive compensation to its employees under its own internal policies.  To the extent that a Party bases an inventor’s incentive compensation on a Patent or a Patent application of the other Party, the Parties will reasonably cooperate by providing to each other relevant information about their Patents for which one or more inventors are employees of the other Party.  To the extent that inventor compensation is specified by local law, such as in Germany and Japan, the Parties will reasonably cooperate in providing information to each other in order to enable each Party to calculate inventor compensation.  No Party shall have any obligation to provide any inventor incentive compensation to an employee of the other Party except as required by law.  Any information provided under this Section 5.3 shall be subject to Section 6.1.

 

11

 

5.4                               No Implied Licenses.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring any rights by implication, estoppel or otherwise, under any Intellectual Property Rights, other than as expressly granted in this Agreement, and all other rights under any Intellectual Property Rights licensed to a Party or its Affiliates hereunder are expressly reserved by the Party granting the license.  The Party receiving the license hereunder acknowledges and agrees that the Party (or its applicable Affiliate) granting the license is the sole and exclusive owner of the Intellectual Property Rights so licensed.

 

5.5                               No Field Restrictions For Patent Licensing.  Except as expressly set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, including in the Exhibits, each Party shall be free to grant licenses of any sort under any of its owned Keysight Patents or Agilent Patents (as the case may be) to any Third Party without restriction as to field of use.

 

5.6                               No Obligation to Prosecute Patents.  Except as expressly set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, including in the Exhibits, no Party shall have any obligation to seek, perfect, or maintain any protection for any of its Intellectual Property Rights.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except as expressly set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, including in the Exhibits, no Party shall have any obligation to file any Patent application, to prosecute any Patent, or secure any Patent rights or to maintain any Patent in force.

 

5.7                               Reconciliation.  The Parties acknowledge that, as part of the transfer of the Transferred Intellectual Property Rights, the Transferred Licenses and the Business Technology, Agilent or its Affiliates may inadvertently retain Technology or Intellectual Property Rights that should have been transferred to Keysight pursuant to Article II of this Agreement, and Keysight may inadvertently acquire Technology or Intellectual Property Rights that should not have been transferred.  Each Party agrees to resolve such errors using the procedures set forth in Section 5.12, Dispute Resolution.

 

5.8                               Technical Assistance.  Except as expressly set forth elsewhere in this Agreement (including in the Exhibits), in the Separation Agreement, or any other mutually executed agreement between the Parties, no Party shall be required to provide the other Party with any technical assistance or to furnish any other Party with, or obtain on their behalf, any documents, materials or other information or Technology.

 

5.9                               Third-Party Infringement.  No Party shall have any obligation hereunder to institute or maintain any action or suit against Third Parties for infringement or misappropriation of any Intellectual Property Rights in or to any Technology licensed to the other Party hereunder, or to defend any action or suit brought by a Third Party which challenges or concerns the validity of any of such Intellectual Property Rights or which claims that any Technology licensed to the other Party hereunder infringes or constitutes a misappropriation of any Intellectual Property Rights of any Third Party.  Each Party (the “Notifying Party”) has the continuing obligation to promptly notify the other Party in writing upon learning of a Third Party likely infringing, misappropriating, or other violating or impairing any Intellectual Property Rights of the other Party which are licensed to the Notifying Party under this Agreement.  Such notification shall set forth in reasonable specificity the identity of the suspected infringing Third Party and the nature of the suspected infringement.  The Party to whom the Intellectual Property

 

12

 

Right is licensed shall not take any steps to contact any such Third Party without the other Party’s prior written permission, and such other Party shall have the sole discretion to determine whether and in what manner to respond to any such unauthorized Third-Party use and shall be exclusively entitled to any remedies, including monetary damages, related thereto or resulting therefrom.  In the event that the Party granting the license hereunder decides to initiate any claim against any Third Party, the Party to whom the Intellectual Property Right is licensed shall cooperate fully with Licensor, subject to Section 5.4.

 

5.10                        Copyright Notices.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, as to works in which Keysight owns the copyright, to the extent any such works contain copyright notices which indicate Agilent as the copyright owner, Keysight may, but shall not be required, to change such notices.

 

5.11                        No Challenge to Title.  Each Party agrees that it shall not (and shall cause its Affiliates not to), for any reason, after the Effective Date (regardless of whether this Agreement is subsequently terminated), either itself do or authorize any Third Party to do any of the following anywhere in the world with respect to any Intellectual Property Rights licensed to such Party or its Affiliates hereunder:  (a) represent to any Third Party in any manner that it owns or has any ownership rights in such Intellectual Property Rights; (b) apply for any registration of such Intellectual Property Rights (including federal, state, and national registrations); or (c) impair, dispute or contest the validity or enforceability of the other Party’s (or any of such other Party’s Affiliates) right, title and interest in and to such Intellectual Property Rights.

 

5.12                        Dispute Resolution.  In the event of any controversy, dispute or claim (a “Dispute”) arising out of or relating to any Party’s rights or obligations under this Agreement (whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise) (including the interpretation or validity of this Agreement), such Dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution process referred to in Article VII of the Separation Agreement.

 

ARTICLE VI

 

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

 

6.1                               Confidential Information.

6.2                               Contract Manufacturing.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Party agrees that, in exercising its “Have-Made” rights (by Keysight, pursuant to Section 3.2, or by Agilent, pursuant to Section 4.2), each Party may only disclose Trade Secrets or Industrial Designs licensed from the other Party in Articles III and IV above if it has executed a written confidentiality agreement with the Third Party contract manufacturer with appropriate, industry standard terms, and in all cases containing terms and conditions pertaining to the

 

13

 

protection of proprietary and confidential information no less restrictive than those set forth in Section 6.1.

 

6.3                               Source Code.   In addition to the provisions of Section 6.2 of the Separation Agreement, Agilent shall maintain the confidentiality all information and documents related to all Licensed Keysight Source Code and Keysight shall maintain the confidentiality of all information and documents related to all Licensed Agilent Source Code until the expiration of any copyright therein.  Each Party shall use the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own proprietary source code, but in any case no less than a reasonable degree of care, to prevent unauthorized use, dissemination or publication of the source code.  Any Third Party disclosure necessary to make commercial use of the source code shall be made only under a confidentiality agreement with terms no less restrictive than those of this Article VI.   Source code shall cease to qualify as confidential information if it (a) becomes publicly available without breach of this Agreement, or (b) is obtained by the licensed party from a Third Party lawfully in possession of the source code and which provides the source code without breach of any duty of confidentiality owed directly or indirectly to the source code owner (either Agilent and/or Keysight, as may be applicable).  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.3, each Party may disclose the other Party’s source code if required by law, regulation, or court order provided that the Party seeking to disclose provides notice and a reasonable opportunity to object to, limit, or condition the disclosure (e.g., to limit the disclosure to the minimum necessary to comply with the law, regulation, or court order and for the disclosure to be made under protective order or other order of confidentiality).

 

6.4                               Trade Secrets.  In addition to the provisions of Section 6.2 of the Separation Agreement, Agilent shall maintain the confidentiality of the Transferred Trade Secrets and the Common Infrastructure Trade Secrets, and Keysight shall maintain the confidentiality of the Trade Secrets licensed under Section 3.1(f), above, and of the Common Infrastructure Trade Secrets.  Each Party shall use the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own trade secrets, but in any case no less than a reasonable degree of care, to prevent unauthorized use, dissemination or publication of the trade secrets.  Any Third Party disclosure necessary to exploit the trade secrets shall be made only under a confidentiality agreement with terms no less restrictive than those of this Article VI.  Trade secrets shall cease to qualify as confidential information if it (a) becomes publicly available without breach of this Agreement, or (b) is obtained from a Third Party lawfully in possession of the trade secret and which provides the trade secret without breach of any duty of confidentiality owed directly or indirectly to the trade secret owner (either Agilent and/or Keysight, as may be applicable).  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.4, each Party may disclose the other Party’s trade secret information if required by law, regulation, or court order provided that the Party seeking to disclose provides notice and a reasonable opportunity to object to, limit, or condition the disclosure (e.g., to limit the disclosure to the minimum necessary to comply with the law, regulation, or court order and for the disclosure to be made under protective order or other order of confidentiality).

7.1                               Limitation of Liability.  IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS, HOWEVER CAUSED AND BASED ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.  THE FOREGOING SHALL NOT, HOWEVER, LIMIT THE DAMAGES AVAILABLE TO A PARTY FOR (A) INFRINGEMENT OR MISAPPROPRIATION OF ITS INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS BY ANOTHER PARTY OR (B) BREACHES OF ARTICLE VI.

ARTICLE VIII

 

TRANSFERABILITY AND ASSIGNMENT

 

8.1                               No Assignment Or Transfer Without Consent.  Except as otherwise provided in this Article VIII, no Party may assign or transfer any of the Intellectual Property Rights licenses granted pursuant to this Agreement, nor this Agreement as a whole, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the non-transferring Party.  The non-transferring Party may, in its sole and absolute discretion, grant or withhold such consent.  Any purported assignment or transfer without such consent shall be void and of no effect.  Unless otherwise agreed in connection with consent to an assignment or transfer, no assignment or transfer made pursuant to this Section 8.1 shall release the transferring Party from any of its rights, responsibilities, duties, obligations, and liabilities under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, Section 8.2, rather than this Section 8.1, shall apply to any assignment, transfer or sublicensing of the Intellectual Property licenses granted pursuant to this Agreement, or this Agreement as a whole, in connection with a Change Of Control.

 

15

 

8.2                               Change Of Control. In the event of a Change of Control of a Party (or any of its respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates), neither this Agreement as a whole nor any of the Intellectual Property Rights or licenses or sublicenses granted pursuant to this Agreement may be assigned, transferred, licensed, or sublicensed, whether expressly, by operation of law, or otherwise, to a Third Party in connection with that Change of Control without first obtaining the prior written consent of the other (non-transferring) Party.  The non-transferring Party may not unreasonably withhold its consent.   Any purported assignment or transfer without such consent shall be void and of no effect.

 

8.3                               Sale of Part of the Business.

 

(a)                                 If any Party (the “Transferring Party”), after the Effective Date either (i) transfers, disposes of or otherwise divests a going business (but not all or substantially all of such Party’s business or assets) and such transfer includes at least one (1) marketable product and tangible assets having a net value of at least twenty-five million U.S. dollars ($25,000,000) to a Third Party and (ii) assigns, sublicenses or transfers any of the Intellectual Property Rights licenses granted pursuant to this Agreement to a Third Party, in any case other than in connection with a Change of Control (the Third Party in any of the foregoing transactions referred to as the “Transferee” and any such transaction referred to as the “Transfer”), then, upon the joint written request of the Transferring Party and the Transferee to the other Party (the “Non-Transferring Party”) not later than sixty (60) days following the closing of the Transfer, the Non-Transferring Party shall grant a royalty-free license to the Transferee under the same terms as the license granted to the Transferring Party under this Agreement subject to all of the following conditions and restrictions:

 

(i)                                     the effective date of such license shall be the closing date of the Transfer;

 

(ii)                                  the products, services and processes of the Transferee that are subject to such license shall be limited to the products, services and processes that are commercially released or for which substantial steps have been taken to commercialize as of the closing date of the Transfer by the Transferring Party, and for new extensions and versions of such products, services and processes;

 

(iii)                               the Intellectual Property Rights of the Non-Transferring Party that are subject to the license to be granted to the Transferee shall be limited to Intellectual Property Rights licensed to the Transferring Party pursuant to Articles III or IV above, as the case may be; and

 

(iv)                              the license to the Transferee shall terminate in the event that during the term of the license the Transferee (A) becomes engaged with the Non-Transferring Party in litigation, arbitration or other formal dispute resolution proceedings involving assertion of infringement, misappropriation, or other violation or impairment of Intellectual Property Rights (pending in any court, tribunal, or administrative agency or before any appointed or agreed upon arbitrator in any jurisdiction worldwide) (any of the foregoing proceedings referred to as “Formal IP Proceedings”) or (B)(1) makes a written allegation of infringement,

If Keysight fails to cause sublicensees to cure any defects, and Agilent elects to enforce its rights in accordance with this paragraph,  Keysight shall reimburse Agilent for its reasonable litigation costs, attorneys’ fees, and expenses incurred in enforcing the agreement, including out-of-pocket costs, attorneys’ fees, and expenses incurred from litigation.

 TRADEMARK USAGE GUIDELINES

 

5.1            TRADEMARK USAGE GUIDELINES.  Keysight, its Affiliates and Authorized Dealers shall use the Licensed Marks during the Term only in a manner that is consistent with the Trademark Usage Guidelines.  To the extent that Keysight’s use of the Licensed Marks is unchanged from how the Licensed Marks were used in a product Sold by Agilent’s Electronic Measurement Group prior to the Effective Date, such use in the counterpart Keysight product shall be deemed to be consistent with the Trademark Usage Guidelines.

 

5.2            TRADEMARK REVIEWS.  At Agilent’s reasonable request, Keysight agrees to furnish or make available for inspection to Agilent one (1) sample of Corporate Identity Materials, Licensed Products, Collateral Materials and Marketing Materials of Keysight and its Affiliates that are marked with one or more of the Licensed Marks.  Keysight further agrees to take reasonably appropriate measures to require its Authorized Dealers to furnish or make available for inspection to Keysight samples of Marketing Materials and Collateral Materials of its Authorized Dealers.  If Keysight is notified or reasonably determines that it or any of its Affiliates or Authorized Dealers is not complying with any Trademark Usage Guidelines, it shall notify Agilent and the provisions of Section 4.3 and Article VI hereof shall apply to such noncompliance.

 

ARTICLE VI
 TRADEMARK USAGE GUIDELINES ENFORCEMENT

 

6.1            INITIAL CURE PERIOD.  If Agilent becomes aware that Keysight or any of its Affiliates is not complying with any Trademark Usage Guidelines, Agilent shall notify

 

E-12

 

Keysight in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail a written description of the noncompliance and any requested action for curing such noncompliance.  Keysight shall then have forty-five (45) calendar days after receipt of such notice (“Guideline Initial Cure Period”) to correct such noncompliance or submit to Agilent a written plan to correct such noncompliance, which written plan shall be reasonably acceptable to Agilent, unless Agilent previously affirmatively concurs in writing, in its sole discretion, that Keysight or its Affiliate is in compliance.  If Agilent or Keysight becomes aware that an Authorized Dealer is not complying with any Trademark Usage Guidelines, Keysight (but not Agilent) shall promptly notify such Authorized Dealer in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail a written description of the noncompliance and any requested action for curing such noncompliance.  Such Authorized Dealer shall then have the Guideline Initial Cure Period to correct such noncompliance or submit to Keysight a written plan to correct such noncompliance, which written plan shall be reasonably acceptable to Keysight and Agilent.

 

6.2            SECOND CURE PERIOD.  If the noncompliance with the Trademark Usage Guidelines continues beyond the Guideline Initial Cure Period, Keysight and Agilent shall each promptly appoint a representative to negotiate in good faith actions that may be necessary to correct such noncompliance.  The parties shall have thirty (30) calendar days following the expiration of the Guideline Initial Cure Period to agree on corrective actions, and Keysight shall have thirty (30) calendar days from the date of an agreement of corrective actions to implement such corrective actions and cure or cause the cure of such noncompliance (“Second Guideline Cure Period”).

 

6.3            ENFORCEMENT UPON FAILURE TO CURE.  If the noncompliance with the Trademark Usage Guidelines by Keysight or any Affiliate (as the case may be) remains uncured after the expiration of the Second Guideline Cure Period, then at Agilent’s election, Keysight or the non-complying Affiliate (as the case may be) promptly shall cease using the non-complying Corporate Identity Materials, Licensed Product, Collateral Materials and/or Marketing Materials until Agilent reasonably determines that Keysight or the non-complying Affiliate (as the case may be) has reasonably demonstrated its ability and commitment to comply with the Trademark Usage Guidelines.  If the noncompliance with the Trademark Usage Guidelines by an Authorized Dealer remains uncured after the expiration of the Second Guideline Cure Period, then at Keysight’s election, such Authorized Dealer promptly shall cease using the non-complying Collateral Materials and/or Marketing Materials until Keysight determines that such Authorized Dealer has demonstrated its ability and commitment to comply with the Trademark Usage Guidelines.  Nothing in this Article VI shall be deemed to limit Keysight’s obligations under Section 4.3 above or to preclude Agilent from exercising any rights or remedies under Section 4.3 above.

 

ARTICLE VII
 QUALITY STANDARDS

 

7.1            GENERAL.  Keysight acknowledges that the Licensed Products permitted by this License to be marked with one or more of the Licensed Marks must continue to be of sufficiently high quality as to provide protection of the Licensed Marks and the goodwill they symbolize, and at least consistent and in compliance with the applicable Agilent Quality Standards in effect as of the day prior to the Effective Date.  Prior to making any material change

 

E-13

 

in any applicable Quality Standard, Keysight shall first advise Agilent of the anticipated change, and obtain Agilent’s consent before implementing it.

 

7.2            QUALITY STANDARDS.  Keysight and its Affiliates shall use the Licensed Marks only on and in connection with Licensed Products that meet or exceed in all respects the applicable Quality Standards in effect on the Distribution Date, or as otherwise mutually agreed between the parties.

 

7.3            QUALITY CONTROL MONITORING.

 

(a)                                 REPORTS:  Keysight will provide Agilent with the quality reports in the form and at the frequency used by Agilent’s Electronic Measurement Group as of July 31, 2014 (“Keysight Quality Reports”) unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties.  Keysight Quality Reports should be sent electronically to Agilent Enterprise Quality Director or a delegate using the contact information provided in Exhibit E.  If a Keysight Quality Report is not submitted within fourteen (14) days of its respective due date, Keysight shall be considered in violation of this provision and subject to the provisions of Artilce VIII (including Section 8.4), below, except when the parties have otherwise agreed in writing.

 

(b)                                 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.  Any Agilent concerns about the reports or their contents should be directed the Keysight Director of Quality or authorized delegate using the contact information provided in Exhibit E.  If Agilent determines that further information or other action is needed, appropriate requests will be made via email to the Keysight Director of Quality or authorized delegate, using the contact information provided in Exhibit E, who will acknowledge such request within fifteen (15) days of receipt.  The parties will then confer to exchange relevant information and determine needed actions and applicable deadlines.

 

(c)                                  SAMPLES.  In addition, at Agilent’s reasonable request, Keysight shall furnish or make available to Agilent for inspection one (1) sample of each requested Licensed Product marked with one or more of the Licensed Marks.

 

(d)                                 UPDATING CONTACT INFORMATION. Contact information may be updated consistent with Section 8.6 of the Separation Agreement, below, with a copy to Agilent Enterprise Quality Director and the Keysight Director of Quality.

 

ARTICLE VIII
 QUALITY STANDARD ENFORCEMENT

 

8.1            INITIAL CURE PERIOD.  If Agilent becomes aware that Keysight or any Affiliate is not complying with any Quality Standard or transmitting the reports identified in Section 7.3(b), above, Agilent shall notify Keysight in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail a written description of the noncompliance and any requested action for curing such noncompliance.  Following receipt of such notice, Keysight shall make an inquiry promptly and in good faith concerning each instance of noncompliance described in the notice.  Keysight shall then have thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of such notice (“Initial Cure Period”) to correct such noncompliance or submit to Agilent a written plan to correct such noncompliance, which

 

E-14

 

written plan shall be reasonably acceptable to Agilent, unless Agilent previously affirmatively concurs in writing, in its sole discretion, that Keysight or its Affiliates is in compliance.

 

8.2            SECOND CURE PERIOD.  If the noncompliance with the Quality Standards continues beyond the Initial Cure Period, Keysight and Agilent shall each promptly appoint a representative to negotiate in good faith actions that may be necessary to correct such noncompliance.  The parties shall have fifteen (15) calendar days following the expiration of the Initial Cure Period to agree on corrective actions, and Keysight shall have fifteen (15) calendar days from the date of an agreement of corrective actions to implement such corrective actions and cure or cause the cure of such noncompliance (“Second Cure Period”).

 

8.3            ENFORCEMENT UPON FAILURE TO CURE.  If the said noncompliance with the Quality Standards by Keysight or any Affiliate (as the case may be) remains uncured after the expiration of the Second Cure Period, then at Agilent’s election, Keysight or the non-complying Affiliate (as the case may be) promptly shall cease offering the non-complying Licensed Products under the Licensed Marks until Agilent reasonably determines that Keysight or the non-complying Affiliate (as the case may be) has reasonably demonstrated its ability and commitment to comply with the Quality Standards.  Nothing in this Article VIII shall be deemed to limit Keysight’s obligations under Section 4.3 above or to preclude Agilent from exercising any rights or remedies under Section 4.3 above.

 

8.4            REPEATED VIOLATIONS OF REPORT REQUIREMENT.   If Keysight violates Section 7.3(a), above, in any three (3) months during any consecutive twelve (12)—month period, Keysight’s license rights to use the Licensed Marks under this agreement shall be deemed automatically terminated with respect to all Licensed Products, regardless of whether or not Agilent has provided Keysight any notices of noncompliance.

 

8.5            LICENSE RE-GRANT FOLLOWING LICENSE TERMINATION.  In the event of an automatic license termination under Section 8.4 above, Keysight may, at any time, request in writing that Agilent re-grant Keysight a license having identical terms to apply from the new grant date forward and potentially also apply retroactively as to certain products.  The written request shall include: (1) current Keysight Quality Reports;(2) all of the relevant Keysight Quality Reports covering the periods of unlicensed use; and (3) two thousand U.S. dollars ($2,000) per month for each month of unlicensed use of the Licensed Marks, to compensate Agilent for the costs and risks associated with Keysight’s unlicensed use of the Licensed Marks.  Effective upon receipt of such request from Keysight, the license shall be deemed granted effective from the receipt date forward.  If Keysight has also requested the license apply retroactively, Agilent shall evaluate the request in light of the written application.  Within thirty (30) days of receipt, Agilent shall review the back Keysight Quality Reports and respond to the request with any concerns raised in the current Keysight Quality Reports being addressed using the processes of Section 7.3 and Sections 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3, above.  If supported by the data submitted, Agilent shall grant the request for retroactive application of the license by making the re-granted license applicable to the relevant Licensed Products, as if the license had not been terminated.

 

E-15

 

ARTICLE IX
 PROTECTION OF LICENSED MARKS

 

9.1            GOODWILL OF LICENSED MARKS.  Any increase in the goodwill associated with Keysight’s use of the Licensed Marks shall inure exclusively to the benefit of Agilent and Keysight shall not acquire or assert any rights therein.  Keysight recognizes the value of the goodwill associated with the Licensed Marks, and that the Licensed Marks may have acquired secondary meaning in the minds of the public.

 

9.2            PROTECTION OF LICENSED MARKS.  During the term of this License, Keysight shall assist Agilent, at Agilent’s request and expense, in the procurement and maintenance of Agilent’s intellectual property rights in the Licensed Marks.  Keysight will not grant or attempt to grant a security interest in the Licensed Marks or record any such security interest in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or elsewhere against any Mark application or registration belonging to Agilent.  Keysight agrees to, and shall cause its Affiliates to, execute all documents reasonably requested by Agilent to affect further registration of, maintenance and renewal of the Licensed Marks, recordation of the license relationship between Agilent and Keysight and recordation of Keysight as a registered user.  Agilent makes no warranty or representation that Mark registrations have been or will be applied for, secured or maintained in the Licensed Marks throughout, or anywhere within the world.  Keysight shall cause to appear on all Licensed Products, all Marketing Materials and all Collateral Materials, such legends, markings and notices as may be required by applicable law or as otherwise agreed by Agilent and Keysight.

 

9.3            SIMILAR MARKS.  Keysight agrees not to use or register in any country any Mark that is or may be confusingly similar to or otherwise infringe Licensed Marks, or any element thereof.  Keysight agrees not to adopt any Marks incorporating the root “Agil” or any other Mark confusingly similar to the Licensed Marks.  Keysight shall not challenge Agilent’s ownership of or the validity of the Licensed Marks or any application for registration thereof throughout the world.  Keysight shall not use or register in any country or jurisdiction, or permit others to use or register on its behalf in any country or jurisdiction, any copyright, telephone number or any other intellectual property right, whether recognized currently or in the future, or any other designation which would affect the ownership or rights of Agilent in and to the Licensed Marks, or otherwise take any action which would adversely affect any of such ownership rights, or assist anyone else in doing so.  Keysight shall cause its Affiliates and direct its Authorized Dealers to comply with the provisions of this Section 9.3.

 

9.4            INFRINGEMENT PROCEEDINGS.

 

(a)                                 NOTICE TO AGILENT.  If Keysight learns, during the Term of this License, of any infringement or threatened infringement of the Licensed Marks, or any unfair competition, passing-off or dilution with respect to the Licensed Marks, Keysight shall provide timely notice to Agilent or its authorized representative giving particulars thereof and indicating whether Keysight requests Agilent take action to enforce its rights in such matter.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, Keysight is not obligated to monitor or police use of the Licensed Marks by Third Parties other than as specifically set forth in Section 4.3 hereof.

 

E-16

 

(b)              DECISION TO ENFORCE.  Except for those actions initiated by Keysight pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof to enforce any sublicense or other agreement with any Affiliate or Authorized Dealer, Agilent shall have exclusive control of any litigation, opposition, cancellation or related legal proceedings.  The decision whether to bring, maintain or settle any such proceedings shall be at the exclusive option of Agilent; provided, however, that in cases where Keysight is bearing the costs of such action, Agilent agrees to consult with Keysight prior to making such decisions.  Keysight can revoke its request that Agilent take action at any time upon written notice.  If the revocation is received by Agilent before an action is initiated, the revocation will be effective upon receipt.  However, if the revocation is received by Agilent after an action is initiated, Keysight’s revocation will become effective only upon the action being successfully terminated or concluded.  If, during the pendency of an action for which Keysight is bearing the costs, a settlement opportunity is presented that Keysight elects to accept, Agilent may alone reject the settlement and continue the litigation on the condition that Agilent bear the costs from that time forward.  Keysight shall not and shall have no right to initiate any litigation, opposition, cancellation or related legal proceedings with respect to the Licensed Marks in its own name (except for those actions initiated by Keysight pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof).  Other than disbursement of monetary recoveries in accordance with Section 9.4(d), below, Agilent shall incur no liability to Keysight or any other Person under any legal theory by reason of Agilent’s failure or refusal to prosecute, nor by reason of any settlement to which Agilent may agree.

 

(c)               KEYSIGHT ASSISTANCE.   Keysight shall provide necessary information and assistance to Agilent or its authorized representatives in the event that Agilent decides that proceedings should be commenced.  Keysight agrees to cooperate with Agilent to enforce its rights in the Licensed Marks, including to join or be joined as a party in any action taken by Agilent against a Third Party for infringement or threatened infringement of the Licensed Marks, to the extent such joinder is required under mandatory local law for the prosecution of such an action.

 

(d)              COST OF ENFORCEMENT.  Unless Keysight has indicated its desire that Agilent take action to enforce its rights in a matter, Agilent shall be responsible for all costs associated with Agilent’s enforcement, including the costs of Keysight assistance provided in accordance with Section 9.4(c), above, and all monetary recoveries shall belong exclusively to Agilent.  Where Keysight has requested Agilent take action, Keysight shall be responsible for all costs associated with Agilent’s enforcement.  If Keysight is responsible for costs, all monetary recoveries up to the full cost of enforcement shall be paid to Keysight with any amounts above and beyond the cost of enforcement split equally between Agilent and Keysight.  If Keysight revokes its request that Agilent take action in a particular matter, Keysight shall remain liable for any costs incurred through the date the revocation became effective, and all monetary recoveries shall belong exclusively to Agilent.

 

(e)               PENDING ACTIONS.  As to actions pending on as of the day prior to the Effective Date, Agilent shall continue to bear the costs, and Keysight shall provide assistance in accordance with Section 9.4(c) above, unless the parties otherwise agree in writing as to a specific action.

 

E-17

 

9.5            TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE.  Except as otherwise set forth herein, in the Agreement or any other mutually executed agreement between the parties, no party shall be required to provide the other party with any technical assistance or to furnish any other party with, or obtain on their behalf, any documents, materials or other information (including copies of registrations of the Licensed Marks).

 

9.6            NO CHALLENGE TO TITLE.  The party receiving the license hereunder acknowledges and agrees that the party (or its applicable Affiliate) granting the license is the sole and exclusive owner of the Licensed Mark so licensed.  Keysight agrees that it shall not (and shall cause its Affiliates not to), for any reason, whether during or after the termination of this License, do or authorize any Third Party to do, any of the following with respect to any Licensed Mark licensed to Keysight or its Affiliates hereunder:  (a) represent to any Third Party in any manner that it owns or has any ownership rights in the Licensed Marks; (b) apply for federal, state, or national registration of the Licensed Marks; or (c) impair, dispute or contest the validity of the Agilent (or any of its Affiliates) right, title and interest in and to the Licensed Marks.

 

ARTICLE X
 CONFIDENTIALITY

 

The provisions set forth in Section 6.2 of the Separation Agreement are hereby expressly incorporated into this License and made a part thereof, and all information, whether written or oral, furnished by either party to the other party or any Affiliate of such other party pursuant to this License shall also be “Confidential Information,” as that term is defined in the Separation Agreement.

 

ARTICLE XI
 TERMINATION

 

11.1     VOLUNTARY TERMINATION.  By written notice to Agilent, Keysight may voluntarily terminate all or a specified portion of the licenses granted to it hereunder by Agilent.  Such notice shall specify the effective date of such termination and shall clearly specify any affected Licensed Marks and Licensed Products.

 

11.2     EFFECT OF TERMINATION; SURVIVAL.  Any voluntary termination of licenses and rights of Keysight under Section 11.1 hereof shall not affect Keysight’s licenses and rights with respect to any Licensed Products made or furnished by Keysight prior to such termination or Keysight’s licenses and rights with respect to any Licensed Marks not so terminated.  Notwithstanding anything in this License to the contrary, Section 2.4 (Reservation of Rights), Section 2.13 (Indemnification), Article X (Confidentiality), this Section 11.2 (Effect of Termination; Survival), Article XII (Limitation of Liability and Warranty Disclaimer) and Article XIII (Miscellaneous Provisions) shall survive any expiration or termination of this License in whole or in part.

 

11.3     CHANGE OF CONTROL.

 

(a)                                 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this License, Change of Control, as defined in the IPMA applies to this License and all licenses granted to Keysight by this

 

E-18

 

License.   For example, if the licenses granted by Agilent to Keysight pursuant to the IPMA are deemed not assignable pursuant to Section 8.2 of the IPMA, then this License and all licenses granted under this License are not assignable.

 

(b)              Further, upon any Change of Control of Keysight, the term specified in each of Sections 2.2(b), 3.3(b), 3.3(c), 3.3(d) and 3.3(e) shall change to “three (3) years from the Distribution Date,” unless Agilent, in its sole and absolute discretion, agrees otherwise in writing.  For example, in the absence of Agilent’s written agreement to the contrary: (1) if the Change of Control event were to occur on the second anniversary of the Distribution Date, then all licenses granted under this Agreement would be deemed to terminate on the third anniversary of the Distribution Date (i.e. in one (“1”) year); and (2) if the Change of Control event were to occur after the third anniversary of the Distribution Date, then all licenses granted under this agreement would be deemed terminated immediately upon the occurrence of the Change of Control.

 

ARTICLE XII
 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND WARRANTY DISCLAIMER

 

12.1     IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS, HOWEVER CAUSED AND BASED ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THIS LICENSE, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.  THE FOREGOING SHALL NOT, HOWEVER, LIMIT THE DAMAGES AVAILABLE TO AGILENT FOR (A) INFRINGEMENT OR MISAPPROPRIATION OF ANY LICENSED MARKS OR (B) BREACHES OF ARTICLE X.

 

12.2     WARRANTIES DISCLAIMER.  EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SET FORTH HEREIN, EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ALL LICENSED MARKS AND ANY OTHER INFORMATION OR MATERIALS LICENSED OR FURNISHED HEREUNDER ARE LICENSED OR FURNISHED WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, WITH RESPECT THERETO, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, ENFORCEABILITY OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

 

12.3     Except as otherwise set forth herein, neither Agilent nor any of its Affiliates makes any warranty or representation as to the validity of any Licensed Mark or any warranty or representation that any use of any Licensed Mark with respect to any product or service will be free from infringement of any rights of any Third Party.

 

E-19

 

ARTICLE XIII
  MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

 

13.1     ENTIRE AGREEMENT.  This License, together with the Separation Agreement and the IPMA constitute the entire understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede all prior written and oral and all contemporaneous oral agreements and understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof.  To the extent that there is a conflict between this License and such other agreements, this License shall govern.

 

13.2     INCORPORATION OF MISCELLANEOUS TERMS.  Article VIII of the Separation Agreement is hereby incorporated into this Agreement by this reference.

 

13.3     DISPUTE RESOLUTION.  In the event of any controversy, dispute or claim (a “Dispute”) arising out of or relating to any party’s rights or obligations under this License (whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise) (including the interpretation or validity of this License), such Dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution process referred to in Article VII of the Separation Agreement.

 

13.4     SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE.  Subject to Section 13.3, in the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this License, the party or parties who are or are to be thereby aggrieved shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief (on an interim or permanent basis) of its rights under this License, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative.  The parties agree that the remedies at law for any breach or threatened breach, including monetary damages, may be inadequate compensation for any loss and that any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate is waived.  Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived by each of the parties.

Keysight shall provide copies of such written sublicense agreements to Agilent upon request.  If Keysight grants any sublicense rights pursuant to this Section 4.1(a) and any such sublicensee ceases to be an Affiliate or Contract Manufacturer, then the sublicense granted to such Affiliate or Contract Manufacturer pursuant to this Section 4.1(a) shall terminate immediately upon cessation.

 

(b)                                 SUBLICENSES TO TRANSFEREES.

4.3                               ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENTS.  Keysight shall take all reasonably appropriate measures at Keysight’s expense to promptly and diligently enforce the terms of any sublicense agreement or other agreement with any sublicensee or Authorized Dealer and shall restrain any such sublicensee or Authorized Dealer from violating such terms, including without limitation:  (a) monitoring the sublicensees’ and Authorized Dealers’ compliance with the relevant Quality Standards and Trademark Usage Guidelines and causing any non-complying sublicensee or Authorized Dealer promptly to remedy any failure; (b) if need be, terminating such agreement; and/or (c) if need be, commencing legal action, in each case using a standard of care consistent with Agilent’s practices as of one day prior to the Effective Date, but in no case using a standard of care less than what is reasonable in the industry.  In the event that Agilent determines that Keysight has failed to promptly and diligently enforce the terms of any such agreement using such standard of care, Agilent reserves the right to enforce such terms, only after providing Keysight with written notice and time to cure such failure to enforce consistent with the procedures set forth in Articles VI and VIII.  If Keysight fails to cause sublicensees to cure any defects, and Agilent elects to enforce its rights in accordance with this paragraph, Keysight shall reimburse Agilent for its reasonable litigation costs, attorneys’ fees, and expenses incurred in enforcing the agreement, including out-of-pocket costs, attorneys’ fees, and expenses incurred from litigation.

 

ARTICLE V
 TRADEMARK USAGE GUIDELINES

 

5.1                               TRADEMARK USAGE GUIDELINES.  Keysight, its Affiliates and Authorized Dealers shall use the Licensed Marks during the Term only in a manner that is consistent with the Trademark Usage Guidelines.  To the extent that Keysight’s use of the Licensed Marks is unchanged from how the Licensed Marks were used in a product Sold by Agilent’s Electronic Measurement Group prior to the Effective Date, such use in the counterpart Keysight product shall be deemed to be consistent with the Trademark Usage Guidelines.

 

5.2                               TRADEMARK REVIEWS.  At Agilent’s reasonable request, Keysight agrees to furnish or make available for inspection to Agilent one (1) sample of Corporate Identity Materials, Licensed Products, Collateral Materials and Marketing Materials of Keysight and its Affiliates that are marked with one or more of the Licensed Marks.  Keysight further agrees to take reasonably appropriate measures to require its Authorized Dealers to furnish or make available for inspection to Keysight samples of Marketing Materials and Collateral Materials of its Authorized Dealers.  If Keysight is notified or reasonably determines that it or any of its Affiliates or Authorized Dealers is not complying with any Trademark Usage Guidelines, it shall notify Agilent and the provisions of Section 4.3 and Article VI hereof shall apply to such noncompliance.

 

ARTICLE VI
 TRADEMARK USAGE GUIDELINES ENFORCEMENT

 

6.1                               INITIAL CURE PERIOD.  If Agilent becomes aware that Keysight or any of its Affiliates is not complying with any Trademark Usage Guidelines, Agilent shall notify

 

12

 

Keysight in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail a written description of the noncompliance and any requested action for curing such noncompliance.  Keysight shall then have forty-five (45) calendar days after receipt of such notice (“Guideline Initial Cure Period”) to correct such noncompliance or submit to Agilent a written plan to correct such noncompliance, which written plan shall be reasonably acceptable to Agilent, unless Agilent previously affirmatively concurs in writing, in its sole discretion, that Keysight or its Affiliate is in compliance.  If Agilent or Keysight becomes aware that an Authorized Dealer is not complying with any Trademark Usage Guidelines, Keysight (but not Agilent) shall promptly notify such Authorized Dealer in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail a written description of the noncompliance and any requested action for curing such noncompliance.  Such Authorized Dealer shall then have the Guideline Initial Cure Period to correct such noncompliance or submit to Keysight a written plan to correct such noncompliance, which written plan shall be reasonably acceptable to Keysight and Agilent.

 

6.2                               SECOND CURE PERIOD.  If the noncompliance with the Trademark Usage Guidelines continues beyond the Guideline Initial Cure Period, Keysight and Agilent shall each promptly appoint a representative to negotiate in good faith actions that may be necessary to correct such noncompliance.  The parties shall have thirty (30) calendar days following the expiration of the Guideline Initial Cure Period to agree on corrective actions, and Keysight shall have thirty (30) calendar days from the date of an agreement of corrective actions to implement such corrective actions and cure or cause the cure of such noncompliance (“Second Guideline Cure Period”).

 

6.3                               ENFORCEMENT UPON FAILURE TO CURE.  If the noncompliance with the Trademark Usage Guidelines by Keysight or any Affiliate (as the case may be) remains uncured after the expiration of the Second Guideline Cure Period, then at Agilent’s election, Keysight or the non-complying Affiliate (as the case may be) promptly shall cease using the non-complying Corporate Identity Materials, Licensed Product, Collateral Materials and/or Marketing Materials until Agilent reasonably determines that Keysight or the non-complying Affiliate (as the case may be) has reasonably demonstrated its ability and commitment to comply with the Trademark Usage Guidelines.  If the noncompliance with the Trademark Usage Guidelines by an Authorized Dealer remains uncured after the expiration of the Second Guideline Cure Period, then at Keysight’s election, such Authorized Dealer promptly shall cease using the non-complying Collateral Materials and/or Marketing Materials until Keysight determines that such Authorized Dealer has demonstrated its ability and commitment to comply with the Trademark Usage Guidelines.  Nothing in this Article VI shall be deemed to limit Keysight’s obligations under Section 4.3 above or to preclude Agilent from exercising any rights or remedies under Section 4.3 above.

 

ARTICLE VII
 QUALITY STANDARDS

 

7.1                               GENERAL.  Keysight acknowledges that the Licensed Products permitted by this License to be marked with one or more of the Licensed Marks must continue to be of sufficiently high quality as to provide protection of the Licensed Marks and the goodwill they symbolize, and at least consistent and in compliance with the applicable Agilent Quality Standards in effect as of the day prior to the Effective Date.  Prior to making any material change

 

13

 

in any applicable Quality Standard, Keysight shall first advise Agilent of the anticipated change, and obtain Agilent’s consent before implementing it.

 

7.2                               QUALITY STANDARDS.  Keysight and its Affiliates shall use the Licensed Marks only on and in connection with Licensed Products that meet or exceed in all respects the applicable Quality Standards in effect on the Distribution Date, or as otherwise mutually agreed between the parties.

 

7.3                               QUALITY CONTROL MONITORING.

 

(a)                                 REPORTS:  Keysight will provide Agilent with the quality reports in the form and at the frequency used by Agilent’s Electronic Measurement Group as of July 31, 2014 (“Keysight Quality Reports”) unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties.  Keysight Quality Reports should be sent electronically to Agilent Enterprise Quality Director or a delegate using the contact information provided in Exhibit E.  If a Keysight Quality Report is not submitted within fourteen (14) days of its respective due date, Keysight shall be considered in violation of this provision and subject to the provisions of Artilce VIII (including Section 8.4), below, except when the parties have otherwise agreed in writing.

 

(b)                                 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.  Any Agilent concerns about the reports or their contents should be directed the Keysight Director of Quality or authorized delegate using the contact information provided in Exhibit E.  If Agilent determines that further information or other action is needed, appropriate requests will be made via email to the Keysight Director of Quality or authorized delegate, using the contact information provided in Exhibit E, who will acknowledge such request within fifteen (15) days of receipt.  The parties will then confer to exchange relevant information and determine needed actions and applicable deadlines.

 

(c)                                  SAMPLES.  In addition, at Agilent’s reasonable request, Keysight shall furnish or make available to Agilent for inspection one (1) sample of each requested Licensed Product marked with one or more of the Licensed Marks.

 

(d)                                 UPDATING CONTACT INFORMATION. Contact information may be updated consistent with Section 8.6 of the Separation Agreement, below, with a copy to Agilent Enterprise Quality Director and the Keysight Director of Quality.

 

ARTICLE VIII
 QUALITY STANDARD ENFORCEMENT

 

8.1                               INITIAL CURE PERIOD.  If Agilent becomes aware that Keysight or any Affiliate is not complying with any Quality Standard or transmitting the reports identified in Section 7.3(b), above, Agilent shall notify Keysight in writing, setting forth in reasonable detail a written description of the noncompliance and any requested action for curing such noncompliance.  Following receipt of such notice, Keysight shall make an inquiry promptly and in good faith concerning each instance of noncompliance described in the notice.  Keysight shall then have thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of such notice (“Initial Cure Period”) to correct such noncompliance or submit to Agilent a written plan to correct such noncompliance, which

 

14

 

written plan shall be reasonably acceptable to Agilent, unless Agilent previously affirmatively concurs in writing, in its sole discretion, that Keysight or its Affiliates is in compliance.

 

8.2                               SECOND CURE PERIOD.  If the noncompliance with the Quality Standards continues beyond the Initial Cure Period, Keysight and Agilent shall each promptly appoint a representative to negotiate in good faith actions that may be necessary to correct such noncompliance.  The parties shall have fifteen (15) calendar days following the expiration of the Initial Cure Period to agree on corrective actions, and Keysight shall have fifteen (15) calendar days from the date of an agreement of corrective actions to implement such corrective actions and cure or cause the cure of such noncompliance (“Second Cure Period”).

 

8.3                               ENFORCEMENT UPON FAILURE TO CURE.  If the said noncompliance with the Quality Standards by Keysight or any Affiliate (as the case may be) remains uncured after the expiration of the Second Cure Period, then at Agilent’s election, Keysight or the non-complying Affiliate (as the case may be) promptly shall cease offering the non-complying Licensed Products under the Licensed Marks until Agilent reasonably determines that Keysight or the non-complying Affiliate (as the case may be) has reasonably demonstrated its ability and commitment to comply with the Quality Standards.  Nothing in this Article VIII shall be deemed to limit Keysight’s obligations under Section 4.3 above or to preclude Agilent from exercising any rights or remedies under Section 4.3 above.

 

8.4                               REPEATED VIOLATIONS OF REPORT REQUIREMENT.   If Keysight violates Section 7.3(a), above, in any three (3) months during any consecutive twelve (12)—month period, Keysight’s license rights to use the Licensed Marks under this agreement shall be deemed automatically terminated with respect to all Licensed Products, regardless of whether or not Agilent has provided Keysight any notices of noncompliance.

 

8.5                               LICENSE RE-GRANT FOLLOWING LICENSE TERMINATION.  In the event of an automatic license termination under Section 8.4 above, Keysight may, at any time, request in writing that Agilent re-grant Keysight a license having identical terms to apply from the new grant date forward and potentially also apply retroactively as to certain products.  The written request shall include: (1) current Keysight Quality Reports;(2) all of the relevant Keysight Quality Reports covering the periods of unlicensed use; and (3) two thousand U.S. dollars ($2,000) per month for each month of unlicensed use of the Licensed Marks, to compensate Agilent for the costs and risks associated with Keysight’s unlicensed use of the Licensed Marks.  Effective upon receipt of such request from Keysight, the license shall be deemed granted effective from the receipt date forward.  If Keysight has also requested the license apply retroactively, Agilent shall evaluate the request in light of the written application.  Within thirty (30) days of receipt, Agilent shall review the back Keysight Quality Reports and respond to the request with any concerns raised in the current Keysight Quality Reports being addressed using the processes of Section 7.3 and Sections 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3, above.  If supported by the data submitted, Agilent shall grant the request for retroactive application of the license by making the re-granted license applicable to the relevant Licensed Products, as if the license had not been terminated.

ARTICLE IX
 PROTECTION OF LICENSED MARKS

 

9.1                               GOODWILL OF LICENSED MARKS.  Any increase in the goodwill associated with Keysight’s use of the Licensed Marks shall inure exclusively to the benefit of Agilent and Keysight shall not acquire or assert any rights therein.  Keysight recognizes the value of the goodwill associated with the Licensed Marks, and that the Licensed Marks may have acquired secondary meaning in the minds of the public.

 

9.2                               PROTECTION OF LICENSED MARKS.  During the term of this License, Keysight shall assist Agilent, at Agilent’s request and expense, in the procurement and maintenance of Agilent’s intellectual property rights in the Licensed Marks.  Keysight will not grant or attempt to grant a security interest in the Licensed Marks or record any such security interest in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or elsewhere against any Mark application or registration belonging to Agilent.  Keysight agrees to, and shall cause its Affiliates to, execute all documents reasonably requested by Agilent to affect further registration of, maintenance and renewal of the Licensed Marks, recordation of the license relationship between Agilent and Keysight and recordation of Keysight as a registered user.  Agilent makes no warranty or representation that Mark registrations have been or will be applied for, secured or maintained in the Licensed Marks throughout, or anywhere within the world.  Keysight shall cause to appear on all Licensed Products, all Marketing Materials and all Collateral Materials, such legends, markings and notices as may be required by applicable law or as otherwise agreed by Agilent and Keysight.

 

9.3                               SIMILAR MARKS.  Keysight agrees not to use or register in any country any Mark that is or may be confusingly similar to or otherwise infringe Licensed Marks, or any element thereof.  Keysight agrees not to adopt any Marks incorporating the root “Agil” or any other Mark confusingly similar to the Licensed Marks.  Keysight shall not challenge Agilent’s ownership of or the validity of the Licensed Marks or any application for registration thereof throughout the world.  Keysight shall not use or register in any country or jurisdiction, or permit others to use or register on its behalf in any country or jurisdiction, any copyright, telephone number or any other intellectual property right, whether recognized currently or in the future, or any other designation which would affect the ownership or rights of Agilent in and to the Licensed Marks, or otherwise take any action which would adversely affect any of such ownership rights, or assist anyone else in doing so.  Keysight shall cause its Affiliates and direct its Authorized Dealers to comply with the provisions of this Section 9.3.

 

9.4                               INFRINGEMENT PROCEEDINGS.

 

(a)                                 NOTICE TO AGILENT.  If Keysight learns, during the Term of this License, of any infringement or threatened infringement of the Licensed Marks, or any unfair competition, passing-off or dilution with respect to the Licensed Marks, Keysight shall provide timely notice to Agilent or its authorized representative giving particulars thereof and indicating whether Keysight requests Agilent take action to enforce its rights in such matter.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, Keysight is not obligated to monitor or police use of the Licensed Marks by Third Parties other than as specifically set forth in Section 4.3 hereof.

 

16

 

(b)                                 DECISION TO ENFORCE.  Except for those actions initiated by Keysight pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof to enforce any sublicense or other agreement with any Affiliate or Authorized Dealer, Agilent shall have exclusive control of any litigation, opposition, cancellation or related legal proceedings.  The decision whether to bring, maintain or settle any such proceedings shall be at the exclusive option of Agilent; provided, however, that in cases where Keysight is bearing the costs of such action, Agilent agrees to consult with Keysight prior to making such decisions.  Keysight can revoke its request that Agilent take action at any time upon written notice.  If the revocation is received by Agilent before an action is initiated, the revocation will be effective upon receipt.  However, if the revocation is received by Agilent after an action is initiated, Keysight’s revocation will become effective only upon the action being successfully terminated or concluded.  If, during the pendency of an action for which Keysight is bearing the costs, a settlement opportunity is presented that Keysight elects to accept, Agilent may alone reject the settlement and continue the litigation on the condition that Agilent bear the costs from that time forward.  Keysight shall not and shall have no right to initiate any litigation, opposition, cancellation or related legal proceedings with respect to the Licensed Marks in its own name (except for those actions initiated by Keysight pursuant to Section 4.3 hereof).  Other than disbursement of monetary recoveries in accordance with Section 9.4(d), below, Agilent shall incur no liability to Keysight or any other Person under any legal theory by reason of Agilent’s failure or refusal to prosecute, nor by reason of any settlement to which Agilent may agree.

 

(c)                                  KEYSIGHT ASSISTANCE.   Keysight shall provide necessary information and assistance to Agilent or its authorized representatives in the event that Agilent decides that proceedings should be commenced.  Keysight agrees to cooperate with Agilent to enforce its rights in the Licensed Marks, including to join or be joined as a party in any action taken by Agilent against a Third Party for infringement or threatened infringement of the Licensed Marks, to the extent such joinder is required under mandatory local law for the prosecution of such an action.

 

(d)                                 COST OF ENFORCEMENT.  Unless Keysight has indicated its desire that Agilent take action to enforce its rights in a matter, Agilent shall be responsible for all costs associated with Agilent’s enforcement, including the costs of Keysight assistance provided in accordance with Section 9.4(c), above, and all monetary recoveries shall belong exclusively to Agilent.  Where Keysight has requested Agilent take action, Keysight shall be responsible for all costs associated with Agilent’s enforcement.  If Keysight is responsible for costs, all monetary recoveries up to the full cost of enforcement shall be paid to Keysight with any amounts above and beyond the cost of enforcement split equally between Agilent and Keysight.  If Keysight revokes its request that Agilent take action in a particular matter, Keysight shall remain liable for any costs incurred through the date the revocation became effective, and all monetary recoveries shall belong exclusively to Agilent.

 

(e)                                  PENDING ACTIONS.  As to actions pending on as of the day prior to the Effective Date, Agilent shall continue to bear the costs, and Keysight shall provide assistance in accordance with Section 9.4(c) above, unless the parties otherwise agree in writing as to a specific action.

 

17

 

9.5                               TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE.  Except as otherwise set forth herein, in the Agreement or any other mutually executed agreement between the parties, no party shall be required to provide the other party with any technical assistance or to furnish any other party with, or obtain on their behalf, any documents, materials or other information (including copies of registrations of the Licensed Marks).

 

9.6                               NO CHALLENGE TO TITLE.  The party receiving the license hereunder acknowledges and agrees that the party (or its applicable Affiliate) granting the license is the sole and exclusive owner of the Licensed Mark so licensed.  Keysight agrees that it shall not (and shall cause its Affiliates not to), for any reason, whether during or after the termination of this License, do or authorize any Third Party to do, any of the following with respect to any Licensed Mark licensed to Keysight or its Affiliates hereunder:  (a) represent to any Third Party in any manner that it owns or has any ownership rights in the Licensed Marks; (b) apply for federal, state, or national registration of the Licensed Marks; or (c) impair, dispute or contest the validity of the Agilent (or any of its Affiliates) right, title and interest in and to the Licensed Marks.

 

ARTICLE X
 CONFIDENTIALITY

 

The provisions set forth in Section 6.2 of the Separation Agreement are hereby expressly incorporated into this License and made a part thereof, and all information, whether written or oral, furnished by either party to the other party or any Affiliate of such other party pursuant to this License shall also be “Confidential Information,” as that term is defined in the Separation Agreement.

 

ARTICLE XI
 TERMINATION

 

11.1                        VOLUNTARY TERMINATION.  By written notice to Agilent, Keysight may voluntarily terminate all or a specified portion of the licenses granted to it hereunder by Agilent.  Such notice shall specify the effective date of such termination and shall clearly specify any affected Licensed Marks and Licensed Products.

 

11.2                        EFFECT OF TERMINATION; SURVIVAL.  Any voluntary termination of licenses and rights of Keysight under Section 11.1 hereof shall not affect Keysight’s licenses and rights with respect to any Licensed Products made or furnished by Keysight prior to such termination or Keysight’s licenses and rights with respect to any Licensed Marks not so terminated.  Notwithstanding anything in this License to the contrary, Section 2.4 (Reservation of Rights), Section 2.13 (Indemnification), Article X (Confidentiality), this Section 11.2 (Effect of Termination; Survival), Article XII (Limitation of Liability and Warranty Disclaimer) and Article XIII (Miscellaneous Provisions) shall survive any expiration or termination of this License in whole or in part.

 

11.3                  CHANGE OF CONTROL.

 

(a)                                 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this License, Change of Control, as defined in the IPMA applies to this License and all licenses granted to Keysight by this

 

18

 

License.   For example, if the licenses granted by Agilent to Keysight pursuant to the IPMA are deemed not assignable pursuant to Section 8.2 of the IPMA, then this License and all licenses granted under this License are not assignable.

 

(b)                                 Further, upon any Change of Control of Keysight, the term specified in each of Sections 2.2(b), 3.3(b), 3.3(c), 3.3(d) and 3.3(e) shall change to “three (3) years from the Distribution Date,” unless Agilent, in its sole and absolute discretion, agrees otherwise in writing.  For example, in the absence of Agilent’s written agreement to the contrary: (1) if the Change of Control event were to occur on the second anniversary of the Distribution Date, then all licenses granted under this Agreement would be deemed to terminate on the third anniversary of the Distribution Date (i.e. in one (“1”) year); and (2) if the Change of Control event were to occur after the third anniversary of the Distribution Date, then all licenses granted under this agreement would be deemed terminated immediately upon the occurrence of the Change of Control.

 

ARTICLE XII
 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND WARRANTY DISCLAIMER

 

12.1                        IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS, HOWEVER CAUSED AND BASED ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) ARISING IN ANY WAY OUT OF THIS LICENSE, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.  THE FOREGOING SHALL NOT, HOWEVER, LIMIT THE DAMAGES AVAILABLE TO AGILENT FOR (A) INFRINGEMENT OR MISAPPROPRIATION OF ANY LICENSED MARKS OR (B) BREACHES OF ARTICLE X.

 

12.2                        WARRANTIES DISCLAIMER.  EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SET FORTH HEREIN, EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ALL LICENSED MARKS AND ANY OTHER INFORMATION OR MATERIALS LICENSED OR FURNISHED HEREUNDER ARE LICENSED OR FURNISHED WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, WITH RESPECT THERETO, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, ENFORCEABILITY OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

 

12.3                        Except as otherwise set forth herein, neither Agilent nor any of its Affiliates makes any warranty or representation as to the validity of any Licensed Mark or any warranty or representation that any use of any Licensed Mark with respect to any product or service will be free from infringement of any rights of any Third Party.

 

19

 

ARTICLE XIII
  MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

 

13.1                        ENTIRE AGREEMENT.  This License, together with the Separation Agreement and the IPMA constitute the entire understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede all prior written and oral and all contemporaneous oral agreements and understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof.  To the extent that there is a conflict between this License and such other agreements, this License shall govern.

 

13.2                        INCORPORATION OF MISCELLANEOUS TERMS.  Article VIII of the Separation Agreement is hereby incorporated into this Agreement by this reference.

 

13.3                        DISPUTE RESOLUTION.  In the event of any controversy, dispute or claim (a “Dispute”) arising out of or relating to any party’s rights or obligations under this License (whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise) (including the interpretation or validity of this License), such Dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution process referred to in Article VII of the Separation Agreement.

 

13.4                        SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE.  Subject to Section 13.3, in the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this License, the party or parties who are or are to be thereby aggrieved shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief (on an interim or permanent basis) of its rights under this License, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative.  The parties agree that the remedies at law for any breach or threatened breach, including monetary damages, may be inadequate compensation for any loss and that any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate is waived.  Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived by each of the parties.
