 Exhibit 10.20 
  
 AMENDED AND RESTATED 
 PATENT LICENSING AGREEMENT 
  
 This AMENDED AND RESTATED PATENT LICENSING AGREEMENT (hereinafter referred to as the “Agreement”) is made and entered into March 28, 2005 (the “Effective Date”) by and between NeoMagic Corporation, a corporation duly
organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and having its principal office at 3250 Jay Street, Santa Clara, California, 95054 (hereinafter referred to as “NEOMAGIC”) and The Consortium for Technology Licensing, Ltd., a
corporation duly organized under the laws of the State of New York and having its principal office at Six Swan Place, Nissequogue, New York 11780-1335 (hereinafter referred to as “CONSORTIUM”). This Agreement amends and restates in its
entirety the April 1, 2002 Patent Licensing Agreement and all amendments thereto between NEOMAGIC and CONSORTIUM. 
  
 WITNESSETH 
  
 WHEREAS, NEOMAGIC is the owner of certain Patent Rights (as later defined herein) relating to the patents and patent applications listed in Appendix A hereto and has the right to grant licenses in respect of said Patent Rights; 

 
 WHEREAS, NEOMAGIC desires to appoint CONSORTIUM as its exclusive licensing
agent, subject to certain conditions as later specified herein, to derive licensing revenue from third parties that wish to exercise the Patent Rights in connection with the manufacture, use or sale of products that are not made by or for NEOMAGIC
and do not incorporate NEOMAGIC products; 
  
 WHEREAS, CONSORTIUM
has represented to NEOMAGIC, to induce NEOMAGIC to enter into this Agreement, that CONSORTIUM possesses expertise in the licensing of intellectual property similar to the Patent Rights and that it shall commit itself to a thorough, vigorous and
diligent program, the objective of which will be to assist NEOMAGIC in deriving licensing revenue from some or all of the Patent Rights; and 
  
 WHEREAS, CONSORTIUM desires to obtain the right to derive licensing revenue on NEOMAGIC’s behalf from the Patent Rights upon the terms and conditions
hereinafter set forth. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
premises and the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  
 1. DEFINITIONS. 
  
 For
the purposes of this Agreement, the following words and phrases shall have the following meanings: 
  
 1.1 “Confidential Information” as used in this Agreement shall mean any trade secrets or other secret or confidential information of NEOMAGIC,
and any ideas and expressions contained in any deliverables provided by NEOMAGIC to CONSORTIUM. Confidential Information does not include any portions of any such deliverables which are made publicly available by NEOMAGIC or which are generally
known outside NEOMAGIC. Confidential 

 Information also includes any other confidential information belonging to or relating to the business of NEOMAGIC or its
affiliated companies including, without limitation, information relating to NEOMAGIC’s customers, intellectual property, employees, programs, costs, products, apparatus, equipment, financing, plans or technology which NEOMAGIC does not make
generally available to the public. 
  
 1.2 “Licensed
Product” shall mean any product or part thereof which: 
  
 (a) the manufacture, use or sale of which is covered in whole or in part by any claim in the NEOMAGIC Patents in the country in which any such product or part thereof is made, used or sold; or 
  
 (b) is manufactured by using a process or is employed to practice a process
which is covered in whole or in part by any claim in the NEOMAGIC Patents in the country in which any Licensed Process is used or in which such product or part thereof is used or sold. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Licensed Product” does not include any NeoMagic Product. 
  
 1.3 “Licensed Process” shall mean any process which is covered in
whole or in part by any claim contained in the NEOMAGIC Patents. 
  
 1.4 “Licensee” means a licensee of the Patent Rights that has executed a Licensee Agreement either directly with NEOMAGIC or with any of its Subsidiaries in accordance with this Agreement. 
  
 1.5 “Licensee Agreement” means the written agreement each Licensee
shall execute either directly with NEOMAGIC or with any of its Subsidiaries in order to obtain the right to manufacture, use or sell products incorporating or embodying all or part of the Patent Rights; provided that if any Licensee Agreement is
renegotiated by NEOMAGIC or by any of its Subsidiaries, it shall continue to be deemed a Licensee Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, “Licensee Agreement” does not include any agreement relating to the design, development,
manufacture, distribution or sale of a NeoMagic Product. 
  
 1.6
“NEOMAGIC Patents” shall mean all the patents and/or patent applications, in all countries of the world, currently owned by NEOMAGIC and/or its Subsidiaries, as listed in Appendix A, and all patents and/or patent applications, in all
countries of the world, which shall in the future issue to, or be applied for, by NEOMAGIC and/or its Subsidiaries, which shall be incorporated into Appendix A from time to time, by amendment. 
  
 1.7 “NeoMagic Product” means any hardware or software product
manufactured by or for NEOMAGIC or any third party product that incorporates a hardware or software product manufactured by or for NEOMAGIC. 
  
 1.8 “Net Revenues” shall mean the total amount actually paid, during the term of this Patent Licensing Agreement and for five (5) years
thereafter, by any third party, by way of 
  

	[***]	Confidential treatment requested pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Omitted portions have been filed separately with
the Commission. 

  

 -2- 

 license fees, royalties or any other types of payments, to NEOMAGIC and/or its Subsidiaries for the right to use the
Patent Rights pursuant to a Licensee Agreement, less the following amounts related to such third party payments incurred pursuant to this Agreement: (i) outside engineering time and expenses incurred by NEOMAGIC and/or its Subsidiaries; (ii) outside
legal expenses incurred by NEOMAGIC and/or its Subsidiaries; (iii) out-of-pocket disbursements incurred by NEOMAGIC and/or its Subsidiaries; and (iv) all amounts paid to CONSORTIUM as reimbursement of expenses under Section 4.4 hereof.
Notwithstanding the above, the outside legal expenses referred to in this Section 1.8 shall not include NEOMAGIC’s and/or its Subsidiaries’ normal patent-related costs such as, but not limited to, prosecution and patent maintenance.
NEOMAGIC shall provide CONSORTIUM with adequate documentary evidence of the items described in (i) – (iii) directly above. Any expenses deducted from Net Revenues under this Section 1.8(i) – (iv) shall be deducted pro-rata from all
payments to be received under a Licensee Agreement, and not from just the first payment(s) under such Licensee Agreement. 
  
 1.9 “Patent Rights” means the rights to make, have made, use, lease, sell and import products incorporating and/or using the NEOMAGIC Patents.

  
 1.10 [***] 
  
 1.11 “Records” shall mean any documents, tapes, records or other
materials in printed or machine-readable form containing any Confidential Information. 
  
 1.12 “Subsidiary” shall mean any corporation, company or other entity of which a party hereto, now or hereafter, owns or controls, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of the Voting Rights.
As used herein, the term “Voting Rights” means (i) the outstanding shares or stock entitled to vote for the election of directors of a corporation, company or other entity in question or (ii), in case such entity does not have outstanding
shares or securities, the ownership interest representing the right to manage such entity. Any corporation, company or other entity which would at any time be a Subsidiary of NEOMAGIC or CONSORTIUM, as the case may be, by reason of the foregoing,
shall be considered as a Subsidiary for the purposes of this Agreement only so long as the ownership or control, directly or indirectly, by NEOMAGIC or CONSORTIUM, as the case may be, meets the conditions hereinabove set forth.
“Subsidiaries” of NEOMAGIC or CONSORTIUM shall mean, respectively, all corporations, companies or other entities that qualify as a Subsidiary under the foregoing. 
  
 2. APPOINTMENT. 
  
 2.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, NEOMAGIC hereby appoints CONSORTIUM as its exclusive agent to negotiate Licensee Agreements
with Licensees on behalf of NEOMAGIC. 
  
 2.2 (a) Except for the
rights expressly granted to CONSORTIUM hereunder, NEOMAGIC reserves all rights in and to the NEOMAGIC Patents, including without limitation the right: 
  
 (i) to use the Patent Rights in all past, current and future NEOMAGIC designs and components; 
  

	[***]	Confidential treatment requested pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Omitted portions have been filed separately with

 -3- 

 (ii) to license the Patent Rights to any third party for purposes of the third party designing,
developing, manufacturing, distributing or selling any NeoMagic product; and 
  
 (iii) to license or sell any of the NEOMAGIC Patents. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, NEOMAGIC shall not be required to make any payments to CONSORTIUM, by way of Royalty Payments or otherwise as a result of: 
  
 (i) exercising any rights under 2.2(a)(i) or 2.2(a)(ii) above; or

  
 (ii) any payments or other consideration received by NEOMAGIC
or its stockholders as the result of (1) any general sale of the assets of NEOMAGIC or any of its divisions, (2) the reorganization of NEOMAGIC, or (3) the merger, acquisition or spin-off of NEOMAGIC or any of its divisions into or by a third party
or separate entity; or 
  
 (iii) any payments or other
consideration received by NEOMAGIC as the result of any business arrangement or agreement whose primary objective does not relate to the intellectual property area (although intellectual property may be a component thereof) and which was negotiated
directly between NEOMAGIC and a third party, without any involvement on the part of CONSORTIUM; or 
  
 (iv) any payments or other consideration received by NEOMAGIC as the result of any business arrangement or agreement between NEOMAGIC and a third party
which was effected after NEOMAGIC specifically requested that CONSORTIUM represent NEOMAGIC in pursuing such business arrangement or agreement with such third party and CONSORTIUM elected, for any reason whatsoever, not to represent NEOMAGIC in
pursuing such business arrangement or agreement, resulting in NEOMAGIC’s either having to negotiate with such third party directly or having to enlist the assistance of an outside consultant or agent (other than CONSORTIUM) to negotiate with
such third party. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, any third party, or other entity, that acquires all, or substantially all, of the assets of NEOMAGIC shall not be required to make any payments to CONSORTIUM, by way of Royalty Payments or otherwise, under the following
circumstances: (i) the primary business of such third party, or other entity, is the licensing of intellectual property, (ii) the third party, or other entity, grants a license under the Patent Rights to another company or organization not
previously licensed under the Patent Rights and (iii) CONSORTIUM has not contacted or met with such company or organization on behalf of NEOMAGIC for at least one (1) year prior to such third party’s acquiring all, or substantially all, of the
assets of NEOMAGIC.

 2.3 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, CONSORTIUM shall not enter into any Licensee
Agreement with any Licensee. 
  
 2.4 CONSORTIUM agrees to forward
to NEOMAGIC an original copy of any and all Licensee Agreements promptly upon execution by the parties. NEOMAGIC agrees to forward to CONSORTIUM an original copy of all Licensee Agreements promptly upon execution by the parties. CONSORTIUM agrees
that all agreements with Licensees will be made solely between the Licensee and NeoMagic. 
  
 2.5 CONSORTIUM shall not license the NEOMAGIC Patents in conjunction with any other party’s patents or patent rights without the prior written consent of NEOMAGIC. 
  
 2.6 The rights granted hereunder shall not be construed to confer any rights
upon CONSORTIUM, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, as to any technology or intellectual property other than any rights expressly set forth herein. 
  
 2.7 NEOMAGIC recognizes that, in order to secure licensing agreements, the inventors of the NEOMAGIC Patents will need to be available for meetings with
potential Licensees and for a reasonable amount of consultation with CONSORTIUM, from time to time, as required, without fee. 
  
 2.8 CONSORTIUM will endeavor to negotiate all Licensee Agreements in the English language. 
  
 2.9 The parties agree to meet regularly, at mutually-convenient times and places, after the execution of this Agreement to
discuss and determine strategies concerning the licensing of Patent Rights to Licensees. 
  
 3. CONSORTIUM OBLIGATIONS. 
  
 3.1 CONSORTIUM shall use its best efforts to derive Net Revenues from Licensees, through licensing and/or selling, all or part, of the Patent Rights to Licensees through a thorough, vigorous and diligent program for exploitation of the
Patent Rights. Without limiting the foregoing, CONSORTIUM shall: 
  
 (a) use reasonable efforts to promote licenses of the Patent Rights to third parties; and 
  
 (b) conduct its business in a manner that reflects positively on NEOMAGIC and the Patent Rights. 
  
 3.2 CONSORTIUM acknowledges that the Confidential Information constitutes
valuable, confidential proprietary information of NEOMAGIC and agrees that both during the term hereof and thereafter CONSORTIUM shall not, except in the provision of its services hereunder and for the exclusive advantage of NEOMAGIC, use or
disclose to any third party any Confidential 
  

	[***]	Confidential treatment requested pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Omitted portions have been filed separately with

 -5- 

 Information acquired by it. CONSORTIUM also agrees not to use or permit others to use the Confidential Information, or to
make copies of any of the Records, except as may be authorized by NEOMAGIC. CONSORTIUM acknowledges that all Records, including all copies thereof, containing any Confidential Information belong exclusively to NEOMAGIC and the same shall be
delivered up to NEOMAGIC forthwith following the termination or expiration of this Agreement, or at any time at the request of NEOMAGIC. CONSORTIUM agrees to comply with all security measures and to follow all instructions provided by NEOMAGIC in
order to safeguard and protect the Confidential Information. CONSORTIUM will advise NEOMAGIC of any unauthorized disclosure or use of any of the Confidential Information of which it becomes aware. 
  
 3.3 CONSORTIUM shall be required to receive NEOMAGIC’s consent prior to
approaching any party for purposes of discussions or negotiations, or for purposes of pursuing an infringement claim concerning the NEOMAGIC Patents, which consent NEOMAGIC may withhold in its sole discretion. NEOMAGIC agrees that for a period of
eighteen (18) months following the grant of such consent, that NEOMAGIC, or any designee or representative of NEOMAGIC, shall not approach that party for the purposes of pursuing an infringement claim concerning, or negotiating a license to use, the
NEOMAGIC Patents. In the event where a consent is not given, NEOMAGIC reserves the right to approach that party for the purposes of pursuing an infringement claim concerning, or negotiating a license to use, the NEOMAGIC Patents. 
  
 3.4 CONSORTIUM agrees that, if it is prevented from pursuing a claim of
infringement against a party, or concluding a Licensee Agreement with a party for reasons of conflict of interest, that, notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, NEOMAGIC shall immediately be permitted to approach that party for
purposes of pursuing an infringement claim or concluding a Licensee Agreement. 
  
 4. ROYALTIES AND EXPENSES. 
  
 4.1 (a) The first [***] of Net Revenues derived from Licensee Agreements and/or sales transactions of one or more NEOMAGIC Patents will accrue entirely to NEOMAGIC. Thereafter, for all Net Revenues in excess of the first [***], except as
provided in section 2.2(b) above, NEOMAGIC shall pay to CONSORTIUM royalty payments (the “Royalty Payments”) calculated as follows: 
  
 (i) [***] of Net Revenues derived from Licensee Agreements; 
  
 (ii) [***] of all Net Revenues associated with sales transactions of one or more NEOMAGIC Patents, and 
  
 (iii) an additional one-time bonus of [***] if CONSORTIUM exceeds
performance targets established by agreement with NEOMAGIC. 
  
 (b) If NEOMAGIC is compensated by a Licensee in other than financial terms under (i) or (ii) above, then the parties will negotiate in good faith to determine a comparable amount of compensation to CONSORTIUM in lieu of the Royalty
Payments.

 (c) If NEOMAGIC licenses or sells all or part of the Patent Rights to a third party and CONSORTIUM is
not involved, and has not been involved, at any time, in the introduction of, or the negotiation or transaction with, the third party, then the “Royalty Payments” that NEOMAGIC shall pay to CONSORTIUM, as specified above in Section 4.1(a),
(i) and (ii), shall be reduced [***] to [***] in Section 4.1(a)(i) and from [***] to [***] in Section 4.1(a)(ii), and NEOMAGIC shall pay such reduced payments to CONSORTIUM. 
  
 4.2 The Royalty Payments due hereunder to CONSORTIUM shall be paid in full without deduction of taxes or other fees which
may be imposed by any government and shall be paid by NEOMAGIC to CONSORTIUM within a thirty (30) day period following the end of each calendar quarter in which NEOMAGIC receives payment of the Net Revenues. 
  
 4.3 Royalty Payments shall be paid to CONSORTIUM in United States dollars. If
any currency conversion shall be required in connection with the payment of royalties hereunder, such conversion shall be made by using the mid point of the exchange rate specified by The Wall Street Journal on the last business day of the
calendar quarterly reporting period to which such Royalty Payments relate. 
  
 4.4 CONSORTIUM shall be responsible for paying all of its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with its efforts to facilitate the obtaining of Net Revenues, as per the terms of this Agreement, including, but
not limited to, out-of-pocket expenses, travel expenses, telephone bills, mailing charges, copying charges and fees incurred for technical patent analysis. However, CONSORTIUM shall not be responsible, in any way, for reimbursing NEOMAGIC for any
costs, fees or expenses whatsoever that NEOMAGIC incurs unless NEOMAGIC has obtained specific written authorization to incur any such costs, fees or expenses from CONSORTIUM prior to NEOMAGIC incurring any such costs, fees or expenses. Similarly,
NEOMAGIC shall not be responsible, in any way, for reimbursing CONSORTIUM for any costs, fees or expenses whatsoever that CONSORTIUM incurs unless CONSORTIUM has obtained specific written authorization to incur any such costs, fees or expenses from
NEOMAGIC prior to CONSORTIUM incurring any such costs, fees or expenses. 
  
 5. REPORTS AND RECORDS. 
  
 5.1 NEOMAGIC and CONSORTIUM shall each keep full, true and accurate books of account containing all particulars that may be necessary for the purpose of showing the amounts payable hereunder. Said books of account shall be kept at each
party’s principal place of business. Said books and the supporting data shall be open at a reasonable time, once a year, for five (5) years following the end of the fiscal year to which they pertain, to the inspection of a certified accounting
firm retained by the inspecting party and reasonably acceptable to the party to be inspected, solely for the purpose of verifying NEOMAGIC’s Royalty Payments statement or compliance in other respects with this Agreement. Prior to commencing its
inspection, the accounting firm shall sign a nondisclosure agreement that is reasonably acceptable to the party to be inspected. Each party shall bear their own costs for their requested inspection.

 7. INFRINGEMENT. 
  
 7.1 CONSORTIUM shall inform NEOMAGIC promptly in writing of any alleged or potential infringement of the Patent Rights by a
third party which comes to its attention and of any available evidence thereof. Similarly, NEOMAGIC shall inform CONSORTIUM promptly in writing of any alleged infringement of the Patent Rights by a third party which comes to its attention and of any
available evidence thereof. 
  
 7.2 NEOMAGIC shall have the right,
but shall not be obligated, to prosecute at its own expense, at any time, any infringement of the Patent Rights, and NEOMAGIC may, for such purposes, use the name of CONSORTIUM as party plaintiff in any such suit, without expense to CONSORTIUM. The
total cost of any such infringement action commenced or defended by NEOMAGIC shall be borne by NEOMAGIC and any recovery or damages derived therefrom shall be divided between NEOMAGIC and CONSORTIUM as follows: eighty-four percent (84%) to NEOMAGIC
and sixteen percent (16%) to CONSORTIUM (or eighty-nine percent (89%) to NEOMAGIC and eleven percent (11%) to CONSORTIUM, if CONSORTIUM was not involved, in any way, in the introduction of, or any negotiation with, the third party), provided that
all expenses described in 1.8(i) - (iv) related to such recovery paid or payable by NEOMAGIC shall first be reimbursed to NEOMAGIC. CONSORTIUM shall assist NEOMAGIC in defending against any counter suit resulting from such proceedings, while
NEOMAGIC will be responsible for paying any costs resulting from an order or judgment that may be made against NEOMAGIC or CONSORTIUM in such proceedings. Other than reimbursement for expenses and payments as described above in this Section 7.2,
Consortium will receive no fees or other compensation for services rendered in support of any litigation or court action. Consortium further agrees that any settlement in NEOMAGIC’s favor related to its current litigation with Trident
Microsystems, Inc. will be fully excluded from any payment or settlement and, as such, is fully excluded from all consideration under this Agreement. 
  
 7.3 In any infringement suit either party may institute to enforce the Patent Rights pursuant to this Agreement, the other party hereto shall, at the
request of the party initiating such suit, cooperate in all respects and, to the extent possible, have its employees testify when requested and make available relevant records, papers, information, samples, specimens, and the like. 
  
 8. INDEMNIFICATION. 
  
 8.1 Each party shall, at all times during the term of this Agreement and
thereafter, indemnify, defend and hold the other party, its trustees, directors, officers, employees and affiliates, harmless against all claims, prosecutions, actions, suits, proceedings, demands, liabilities, costs, and expenses of any kind
whatsoever, including legal expenses and actual attorneys’ fees, arising out of any breach of this Agreement or other wrongful act by the breaching or defaulting party. 
  
 8.2 Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, NEOMAGIC, its trustees, directors, officers and employees
make no representations and extend no warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including, but not limited to, warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, validity of patent right, claims, issued or pending, and the
absence of latent

 -9- 

 or other defects, whether or not discoverable. Nothing in this agreement shall be construed as a representation made, or
a warranty given, by NEOMAGIC that the licenses and/or rights granted hereunder shall not infringe the rights of any third party. In no event shall NEOMAGIC’s trustees, directors, officers and employees be liable for incidental, indirect,
special, punitive or consequential damages of any kind relating to this Agreement, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, including economic damage or injury to property and lost profits, regardless of whether NEOMAGIC shall be advised,
shall have other reason to know, or in fact shall know of the possibility of such damages. 
  
 9. EXPORT CONTROLS. 
  
 9.1 It is understood that NEOMAGIC is subject to laws and regulations controlling the export of technical data, computer software, laboratory prototypes and other commodities (including the U.S. Arms Export Control Act, as amended and the
U.S. Export Administration Act of 1979) and its obligations hereunder are contingent on compliance with applicable export laws and regulations. The transfer of certain technical data and commodities may require a license from the cognizant agency of
the United States Government or other governments and/or written assurances by CONSORTIUM that CONSORTIUM shall not export data or commodities to certain foreign countries without prior approval of such agency. NEOMAGIC neither represents that a
license shall not be required nor that, if required, it shall be issued. 
  
 10. NON-USE OF NAMES. 
  
 10.1 Neither party to this Agreement shall use the names or trademarks of the other party, or any adaptation thereof, or the names of any of the other party’s officers or employees, in any advertising, promotional or sales literature,
without first obtaining prior written consent from the other party. 
  
 11. ASSIGNMENT. 
  
 11.1 This Agreement is not
assignable by either party to this Agreement without the expressed written consent of the other party and any attempt to do so shall be void, except in the case where one of the parties is acquired by a third party. In such a case, the party being
acquired shall notify the other party of such an acquisition within thirty (30) days of the completion of the acquisition. This Agreement will be automatically assigned to the acquiring party by the party being acquired upon the completion of the
acquisition and the acquiring party will immediately assume all the responsibilities and derive all of the benefits under this Agreement, going forward. 
  
 12. DISPUTE RESOLUTION. 
  
 12.1 The parties to this Agreement agree that, with respect to any and all claims, disputes or controversies arising under, out of, or in connection with
this Agreement, including any dispute relating to patent validity or infringement, they will first attempt to reach mutually-acceptable solutions through good-faith negotiations and/or non-binding mediation. However, if the representatives of the

 controversies within sixty (60) business days after the initiation of such good-faith negotiations and/or non-binding
mediation, the parties shall each have the right to pursue any and all available legal remedies to resolve any and all such claims, disputes or controversies in the Courts of the State of Delaware, or in a United States District Court in the State
of Delaware, to whose jurisdiction for such purposes NEOMAGIC and CONSORTIUM each hereby irrevocably consents and submits. 
  
 13. TERMINATION. 
  
 13.1 This Agreement shall have an initial term of ten (10) years and shall be subject to automatic renewal terms of two (2) years each unless one party
provides the other with not less than thirty (30) days notice that it does not intend to renew prior to the expiration of the then current term or renewal term. 
  

13.2 (a) If the cumulative Net Revenues up to the years set forth below do not exceed the threshold amounts set forth below, then NEOMAGIC shall have
the right upon written notice to CONSORTIUM to render CONSORTIUM’s rights under this Agreement non-exclusive: 
  

			
	 YEAR ENDED

	  	 THRESHOLD AMOUNT

	 DECEMBER 31, 2005
	  	Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.)

	  	Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000.)
	 DECEMBER 31, 2008
	  	Seventy-Five Million Dollars ($75,000,000.)

  
 (b) Upon the
rendering of CONSORTIUM’s rights non-exclusive, CONSORTIUM shall only be entitled to Royalty Payments in respect of transactions in which CONSORTIUM was involved, and if NEOMAGIC or any designee of NEOMAGIC licenses or sells any Patent Rights
to a third party without assistance, in any way, from CONSORTIUM, then CONSORTIUM shall not be entitled to any compensation in respect of such sale or license. Upon CONSORTIUM’s rights becoming non-exclusive hereunder, all relevant sections of
this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended accordingly, including Sections 1.4, 1.5, 1.7 and 2.1. Once CONSORTIUM’s rights become non-exclusive, they shall remain non-exclusive, unless reinstated by NEOMAGIC.

rights, privileges and license granted hereunder, ninety (90) days after giving written notice to the party in breach or default. Such termination shall become automatically effective unless the party in breach or default shall have cured any such
material breach or default prior to the expiration of the ninety (90) day period. 
  
 13.5 Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, nothing herein shall be construed to release either party from any obligation that matured prior to the effective date of such termination and Articles 1, 4, 8,
10 and 12 shall survive any such termination. The obligation of NEOMAGIC to pay Royalty Payments to CONSORTIUM hereunder shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement for five (5) years from the date of termination for any Licensee
Agreement in place at the time of termination or for any Licensee who was either contacted by CONSORTIUM on behalf of NEOMAGIC, or who was introduced to NEOMAGIC by CONSORTIUM, prior to termination and this introduction was instrumental in the
establishment of the Licensee Agreement. 
  
 13.6 In addition,
upon the termination of this Agreement under this Article 13 for any reason, all Licensee Agreements shall automatically be assigned by CONSORTIUM to NEOMAGIC or to such party as NEOMAGIC may direct.
