 Re:    Withholding Tax Matters 
  
 Jay: 
  
 The purpose of this letter is to confirm our understanding with respect to certain withholding taxes that will become due later this year. On October 9, 2002 Agile granted you an option to purchase 150,000 shares of
Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share (the “Option”). Of the shares subject to the Option, 100,000 vested in 2004 or earlier and the remaining 50,000 shares (the “2005 Shares”) vest in October of this year. At the
time you exercise the Option, you will realize ordinary income—and Agile will have an obligation to pay withholding taxes with respect to the gain recognized on exercise. 
  
 In accordance with applicable law and Agile’s Insider Trading Policy, you may only sell Agile stock during
“open” trading windows, generally the middle month of each fiscal quarter. Notwithstanding that the trading window may be open, individuals are nonetheless precluded from selling Agile stock if they hold material, non-public information
about Agile. 
  
 In recognition of the fact that you may be in a
situation where you have to exercise the Option as to the 2005 Shares, but would be precluded by our Insider Trading Policy from selling the underlying shares to cover the taxes arising on exercise, you and Agile agrees as follows: 
  

	 	•	 	You will exercise the Option as to the 2005 Shares during trading window that will open in late November and continue through December 2005 (the “December 2005 Window”);

  

	 	•	 	In the event that the December 2005 Window does not open as for any reason, or is generally open but at the time you exercise the Option you hold material, non-public information
that precludes you from selling shares, you will surrender to Agile a number of shares of Agile common stock that have a value1 equal to the withholding tax obligations2 arising from exercise of the Option, and Agile will remit
these amounts to the appropriate tax authorities on your behalf. 

	1	Shares accepted to cover the taxes will be valued based on the closing price of Agile’s common stock on the day you exercise the Option.

	2	Taxes will be withheld and paid as follows: federal—25%; social security—6.2% (subject to annual cap); medicare—1.45%; California income
tax—9.3%; California disability—1.08% (subject to annual cap). You and we acknowledge that your actual tax liability with respect to the gain realized on exercise of the option may be more or less than the amounts withheld, and that you
remain responsible for any incremental taxes payable by you. 

 The arrangement to accept shares to cover withholding taxes described in this letter is only intended to
address the 2005 Shares. You will remain responsible for covering withholding tax obligations in cash with respect to exercising the Option as to the previously vested shares. 
  
 Please confirm that this letter reflects our understanding by countersigning and returning a copy to us. 
  
 Very truly yours, 
 Agile Software Corporation 
  
 /s/    Bryan D. Stolle 
 Chief Executive Officer 
  
 The foregoing reflects my understanding of the matters described in this letter.

	Date:	 	 September 6, 2005The Company's Form of Indemnity Agreement

 Exhibit 10.8 
  
 MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC. 
  
 INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT 
  
 THIS AGREEMENT is entered into, effective as of
                        ,              by and between
Maxim Integrated Products, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and                         
(“Indemnitee”). 
  
 WHEREAS, it is essential to the
Company to retain and attract as directors and officers the most capable persons available; 
  
 WHEREAS, Indemnitee is a director and/or officer of the Company; 
  
 WHEREAS, both the Company and Indemnitee recognize the increased risk of litigation and other claims currently being asserted against directors and
officers of corporations; 
  
 WHEREAS, the Certificate of
Incorporation permits and Bylaws of the Company require or permit, as the case may be, the Company to indemnify and advance expenses to its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law, and the Indemnitee has been
serving and continues to serve as a director and/or officer of the Company in part in reliance on the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws; and 
  
 WHEREAS, in recognition of Indemnitee’s need for (i) substantial protection against personal liability based on
Indemnitee’s reliance on the aforesaid Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, (ii) specific contractual assurance that the protection promised by the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws will be available to Indemnitee (regardless of,
among other things, any amendment to or revocation of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws or any change in the composition of the Company’s Board of Directors or acquisition transaction relating to the Company), and (iii) an
inducement to provide effective services to the Company as a director and/or officer, the Company wishes to provide in this Agreement for the indemnification of and the advancing of expenses to Indemnitee to the fullest extent (whether partial or
complete) permitted under Delaware law and as set forth in this Agreement, and, to the extent insurance is maintained, to provide for the continued coverage of Indemnitee under the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability
insurance policies. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
above premises and of Indemnitee continuing to serve the Company directly or, at its request, with another enterprise, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows: 
  

	 	1.	Certain Definitions: 

  
 (a)    Board: the Board of Directors of the Company. 
  
 (b)    Affiliate: any corporation or other person or entity that directly, or indirectly through
one or more intermediaries, controls or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the person specified. 
  

 1 

 (c)    Change in Control: shall be deemed to have occurred if (i) any
“person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), other than a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan
of the Company or a corporation owned directly or indirectly by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company, is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule
13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then outstanding Voting Securities, or (ii) during any period of two
consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board and any new director whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds
(2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the Board, or
(iii) the stockholders of the Company approve a merger or consolidation of the Company with any other entity, other than a merger or consolidation that would result in the Voting Securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto
continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into Voting Securities of the surviving entity) at least 80% of the total voting power represented by the Voting Securities of the Company or such surviving entity
outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or (iv) the stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Company or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company (in one transaction or a series
of transactions) of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. 
  
 (d)    Expenses: any expense, liability, or loss, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement, any interest,
assessments, or other charges imposed thereon, any federal, state, local, or foreign taxes imposed as a result of the actual or deemed receipt of any payments under this Agreement, and all other costs and obligations, paid or incurred in connection
with investigating, defending, being a witness in, participating in (including on appeal), or preparing for any of the foregoing in, any Proceeding relating to any Indemnifiable Event. 
  
 (e)    Indemnifiable Event: any event or occurrence that takes place either prior to or after the
execution of this Agreement, related to the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director or officer of the Company, or while a director or officer is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, trustee, agent, or
fiduciary of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust, or other enterprise, or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of a foreign or domestic corporation that was a predecessor
corporation of the Company or of another enterprise at the request of such predecessor corporation, or related to anything done or not done by Indemnitee in any such capacity, whether or not the basis of the Proceeding is alleged action in an
official capacity as a director, officer, employee, or agent or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee, or agent of the Company, as described above. 
  
 (f)    Independent Counsel: the person or body appointed in connection with Section 3.

  
 (g)    Proceeding: any threatened,
pending, or completed action, suit, or 

  

 2 

 
proceeding or any alternative dispute resolution mechanism (including an action by or in the right of the Company), or any inquiry, hearing, or
investigation, whether conducted by the Company or any other party, that Indemnitee in good faith believes might lead to the institution of any such action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative, or other.

  
 (h)    Reviewing Party: the person
or body appointed in accordance with Section 3. 
  
 (i)    Voting Securities: any securities of the Company that vote generally in the election of directors. 
  

	 	2.	Agreement to Indemnify. 

  
 (a)    General Agreement. In the event Indemnitee was, is, or becomes a party to or witness or other participant in, or is
threatened to be made a party to or witness or other participant in, a Proceeding by reason of (or arising in part out of) an Indemnifiable Event, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee from and against any and all Expenses to the fullest extent
permitted by law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended or interpreted (but in the case of any such amendment or interpretation, only to the extent that such amendment or interpretation permits the Company to provide broader indemnification
rights than were permitted prior thereto). The parties hereto intend that this Agreement shall provide for indemnification in excess of that expressly permitted by statute, including, without limitation, any indemnification provided by the
Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, its Bylaws, vote of its stockholders or disinterested directors, or applicable law. 
  
 (b)    Initiation of Proceeding. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Indemnitee shall not be entitled
to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement in connection with any Proceeding initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or any director or officer of the Company unless (i) the Company has joined in or the Board has consented to the
initiation of such Proceeding; (ii) the Proceeding is one to enforce indemnification rights under Section 5; or (iii) the Proceeding is instituted after a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control approved by a majority of the
directors on the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control) and Independent Counsel has approved its initiation. 
  
 (c)    Expense Advances. If so requested by Indemnitee, the Company shall advance (within twenty business days of such request)
any and all Expenses incurred by Indemnitee (an “Expense Advance”). The Indemnitee shall qualify for such Expense Advances upon the execution and delivery to the Company of this Agreement which shall constitute an undertaking providing
that the Indemnitee undertakes to repay such Expense Advances if and to the extent that it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment, not subject to appeal, that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by
the Company. Until it is so finally determined by the court that Indemnitee is not entitled indemnification, Indemnitee shall not be required to repay such Expense Advances to the Company and Indemnitee shall continue to receive Expense Advances
pursuant to this section 2(c). Indemnitee’s obligation to reimburse the Company 

  

 3 

 
for Expense Advances shall be unsecured and no interest shall be charged thereon. To the extent permissible under third party policies, the Company agrees
that invoices for Expense Advances shall be billed in the name of and be payable directly by the Company. 
  
 (d)    Mandatory Indemnification. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee has been
successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Proceeding relating in whole or in part to an Indemnifiable Event or in defense of any issue or matter therein, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses incurred in connection
therewith. 
  
 (e)    Partial
Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of Expenses, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify
Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled. Attorneys’ fees and expenses shall not be prorated but shall be deemed to apply to the portion of indemnification to which Indemnitee is entitled. 
  
 (f)    Prohibited Indemnification. No
indemnification pursuant to this Agreement shall be paid by the Company on account of any Proceeding in which judgment is rendered against Indemnitee for an accounting of profits made from the purchase or sale by Indemnitee of securities of the
Company pursuant to the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, or similar provisions of any federal, state, or local laws; provided, however, that notwithstanding any limitation set forth in this Section 2(f) regarding the
Company’s obligation to provide indemnification, Indemnitee shall be entitled under Section 2(c) to receive Expense Advances hereunder with respect to any such Proceeding unless and until a court having jurisdiction over the Proceeding
shall have made a final judicial determination (as to which all rights of appeal therefrom have been exhausted or lapsed) that Indemnitee has violated said statute. 
  
 3.    Reviewing Party. Prior to any Change in Control, the Reviewing Party shall be any
appropriate person or body consisting of a member or members of the Board or any other person or body appointed by the Board who is not a party to the particular Proceeding with respect to which Indemnitee is seeking indemnification. With respect to
all matters arising after a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control approved by a majority of the directors on the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control) concerning the rights of Indemnitee to indemnity
payments under this Agreement or any other agreement or under applicable law or the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws now or hereafter in effect relating to indemnification for Indemnifiable Events, the Reviewing Party, if
desired by Indemnitee, shall be Independent Counsel selected by Indemnitee and approved by the Company (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and who has not otherwise performed services for the Company or the Indemnitee (other than in
connection with indemnification matters) within the last three years. The Independent Counsel shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing
either the Company or Indemnitee in an action to determine Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement. Such counsel, among other things, shall render its written opinion to the Company and Indemnitee as to whether and to what extent the
Indemnitee should be 

  

 4 

 
permitted to be indemnified under applicable law. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees of the Independent Counsel and to indemnify fully such
counsel against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), claims, liabilities, loss, and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the engagement of Independent Counsel pursuant hereto. 
  

	 	4.	Indemnification Process and Appeal. 

  
 (a)    Indemnification Payment. Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification of Expenses, and shall receive payment thereof,
from the Company in accordance with this Agreement as soon as practicable after Indemnitee has made written demand on the Company for indemnification, unless the Reviewing Party has given a written opinion to the Company that Indemnitee is not
entitled to indemnification under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. 
  
 (b)    Suit to Enforce Rights. Regardless of any action by the Reviewing Party, if Indemnitee has not received full indemnification within thirty days after making a demand in accordance
with Section 4(a), Indemnitee shall have the right to enforce its indemnification rights under this Agreement by commencing litigation in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware seeking an initial determination by the court or
challenging any determination by the Reviewing Party or any aspect thereof. The Company hereby consents to service of process and to appear in any such proceeding. Any determination by the Reviewing Party not challenged by the Indemnitee shall be
binding on the Company and Indemnitee. The remedy provided for in this Section 4 shall be in addition to any other remedies available to Indemnitee at law or in equity. 
  
 (c)    Defense to Indemnification, Burden of Proof, and Presumptions. It shall be a defense to
any action brought by Indemnitee against the Company to enforce this Agreement (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for Expenses incurred in defending a Proceeding in advance of its final disposition) that it is not permissible under
applicable law for the Company to indemnify Indemnitee for the amount claimed. In connection with any such action or any determination by the Reviewing Party as to whether Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified hereunder, the burden of proving
such a defense or determination shall be on the Company to establish that Indemnitee is not so entitled to indemnification. It is the parties’ intention that if Indemnitee commences legal proceedings to secure a judicial determination that
Indemnitee should be indemnified under this Agreement or applicable law, the question of Indemnitee’s right to indemnification shall be for the court to decide, and neither the failure of the Reviewing Party or the Company (including its Board,
independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action by Indemnitee that indemnification of the claimant is proper under the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the standard of
conduct set forth in applicable law, nor an actual determination by the Reviewing Party or Company (including its Board, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the Indemnitee had not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a
defense to the action or create a presumption that the Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. For purposes of this Agreement, the termination of any claim, action, suit, or proceeding, by judgment, order, settlement (whether with
or without court approval), conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any particular standard of conduct or have any particular belief or that a court has determined
that indemnification is not permitted by 

  

 5 

 
applicable law. 
  
 5.    Indemnification for Expenses Incurred in Enforcing Rights. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any and
all Expenses that are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action brought by Indemnitee for 
  
 (a) indemnification or advance payment of Expenses by the Company under this Agreement or any other agreement or under applicable law or the
Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws now or hereafter in effect relating to indemnification for Indemnifiable Events, and/or 
  
 (b) recovery under directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, but only in the event that Indemnitee
ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification or insurance recovery, as the case may be. 
  
 (c) In addition, the Company shall, if so requested by Indemnitee, advance the foregoing Expenses to Indemnitee, subject to and in accordance with
Section 2(c). 
  

	 	6.	Notification and Defense of Proceeding. 

  
 (a)    Notice. Promptly after receipt by Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding, Indemnitee shall, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability that it may have to
Indemnitee, except as provided in Section 6(c). 
  
 (b)    Defense. With respect to any Proceeding as to which Indemnitee notifies the Company of the commencement thereof, the Company will be entitled to participate in the Proceeding at its own expense and except
as otherwise provided below, to the extent the Company so wishes, it may assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee. After notice from the Company to Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of any
Proceeding, the Company shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise for any Expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the defense of such Proceeding other than reasonable costs of investigation,
transition costs associated with the Company’s assumption of the defense, or as otherwise provided below. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ legal counsel in such Proceeding, but all Expenses related thereto incurred after notice from
the Company of its assumption of the defense shall be at Indemnitee’s expense unless: (i) the employment of legal counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Company, (ii) Indemnitee has reasonably determined that there may be a
conflict of interest between Indemnitee and the Company in the defense of the Proceeding, (iii) after a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control approved by a majority of the directors on the Board who were directors immediately prior
to such Change in Control), the employment of counsel by Indemnitee has been approved by the Independent Counsel, or (iv) the Company shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such Proceeding, in each of which cases all
Expenses of the Proceeding shall be borne by the Company. The Company shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding brought by or on behalf of the Company or as to which Indemnitee shall have made the determination provided for in
(ii), (iii)

  

 6 

 
and (iv) above. 
  
 (c)    Settlement of Claims. The Company shall not be liable to indemnify Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise for
any amounts paid in settlement of any Proceeding effected without the Company’s written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that if a Change in Control has occurred (other than a Change in Control approved
by a majority of the directors on the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in Control), the Company shall be liable for indemnification of Indemnitee for amounts paid in settlement if the Independent Counsel has approved the
settlement. The Company shall not settle any Proceeding in any manner that would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s written consent. The Company shall not be liable to indemnify the Indemnitee under this
Agreement with regard to any judicial award if the Company was not given a reasonable and timely opportunity, at its expense, to participate in the defense of such action; the Company’s liability hereunder shall not be excused if participation
in the Proceeding by the Company was barred by this Agreement. 
  
 7.    Establishment of Trust. In the event of a Change in Control (other than a Change in Control approved by a majority of the directors on the Board who were directors immediately prior to such Change in
Control) the Company shall, upon written request by Indemnitee, create a Trust for the benefit of the Indemnitee and from time to time upon written request of Indemnitee shall fund the Trust in an amount sufficient to satisfy any and all Expenses
reasonably anticipated at the time of each such request to be incurred in connection with investigating, preparing for, participating in, and/or defending any Proceeding relating to an Indemnifiable Event. The amount or amounts to be deposited in
the Trust pursuant to the foregoing funding obligation shall be determined by the Independent Counsel. The terms of the Trust shall provide that (i) the Trust shall not be revoked or the principal thereof invaded without the written consent of
the Indemnitee, (ii) the Trustee shall advance, within ten business days of a request by the Indemnitee, any and all Expenses to the Indemnitee (and the Indemnitee hereby agrees to reimburse the Trust under the same circumstances for which the
Indemnitee would be required to reimburse the Company under Section 2(c) of this Agreement), (iii) the Trust shall continue to be funded by the Company in accordance with the funding obligation set forth above, (iv) the Trustee shall
promptly pay to the Indemnitee all amounts for which the Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise, and (v) all unexpended funds in the Trust shall revert to the Company upon a final determination
by the Independent Counsel or a court of competent jurisdiction, as the case may be, that the Indemnitee has been fully indemnified under the terms of this Agreement. The Trustee shall be chosen by the Indemnitee. Nothing in this Section 7
shall relieve the Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement. All income earned on the assets held in the Trust shall be reported as income by the Company for federal, state, local, and foreign tax purposes. The Company shall pay all
costs of establishing and maintaining the Trust and shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all expenses (including attorneys’ fees), claims, liabilities, loss, and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the establishment
and maintenance of the Trust. 
  
 8.    Non-Exclusivity. The rights of Indemnitee hereunder shall be in addition to any other rights Indemnitee may have under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, applicable law, or
otherwise; provided, however, that this Agreement shall supersede any prior indemnification agreement between the Company and the Indemnitee. To the extent that a 

  

 7 

 
change in applicable law (whether by statute or judicial decision) permits greater indemnification than would be afforded currently under the Company’s
Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, applicable law, or this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties that Indemnitee enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change without any further action by the Parties. 

 
 9.    Liability Insurance. To the extent
the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing general and/or directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies, in accordance with its or their terms, to the maximum
extent of the coverage available for any Company director or officer. 
  
 10.    Period of Limitations. No legal action shall be brought and no cause of action shall be asserted by or on behalf of the Company or any Affiliate of the Company against Indemnitee, Indemnitee’s
spouse, heirs, executors, or personal or legal representatives after the expiration of two years from the date of accrual of such cause of action, or such longer period as may be required by state law under the circumstances. Any claim or cause of
action of the Company or its Affiliate shall be extinguished and deemed released unless asserted by the timely filing and notice of a legal action within such period; provided, however, that if any shorter period of limitations is otherwise
applicable to any such cause of action, the shorter period shall govern. 
  
 11.    Amendment of this Agreement. No supplement, modification, or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both of the parties hereto. No waiver of
any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding unless in the form of a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the waiver is sought, and no such waiver shall operate as a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or
not similar), nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver. Except as specifically provided herein, no failure to exercise or any delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall constitute a waiver thereof. 
  
 12.    Subrogation. In the event of payment
under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and shall do everything that may be necessary to secure such rights, including
the execution of such documents necessary to enable the Company effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights. 
  
 13.    No Duplication of Payments. The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment in connection
with any claim made against Indemnitee to the extent Indemnitee has otherwise received payment (under any insurance policy, Bylaw, or otherwise) of the amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder. 
  
 14.    Binding Effect. This Agreement shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise to all or substantially all of the
business and/or assets of the Company), assigns, spouses, heirs, and personal and legal representatives. The Company shall require and cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all,
substantially all, or a substantial part, of the business and/or assets of the Company, by 

  

 8 

 
written agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Indemnitee, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the
same extent that the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place. The indemnification provided under this Agreement shall continue as to Indemnitee for any action taken or not taken while serving in an indemnified
capacity pertaining to an Indemnifiable Event even though he may have ceased to serve in such capacity at the time of any Proceeding. 
  
 15.    Severability. If any provision (or portion thereof) of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or otherwise unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Furthermore, to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without
limitation, each portion of this Agreement containing any provision held to be invalid, void, or otherwise unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, void, or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested by the
provision held invalid, void, or unenforceable. 
  
 16.    Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and to be performed in such State without
giving effect to its principles of conflicts of laws. 
  
 17.    Notices. All notices, demands, and other communications required or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered by hand, against receipt, or
mailed, postage prepaid, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, and addressed to the Company at:
