Agreement entered into between Infineon Technologies AG and Seller with an
effective date of October 1, 2007 shall be amended and re-stated as of the
Closing Date in accordance with the form attached hereto as Schedule 
1.5.  In
particular and for the avoidance of doubt, Seller and Purchasers agree that no
term or condition set forth in this Agreement shall excuse Infineon Technologies
AG (or its assignee) from complying with its obligations under the DSL License
Agreement to pay Seller royalties for its sales of ADSL Products and VDSL
Products pursuant to the royalty provisions of Appendix B of the DSL License
Agreement.  If there is a conflict between this Agreement and the DSL
License Agreement with respect to Infineon Technologies AG’s (or its assignee’s)
obligations to pay Seller royalties for its sales of ADSL Products and VDSL
Products, the terms of the DSL License Agreement shall govern.

     

    1.6 Existing Support
Agreements.  Seller and Infineon Technologies AG are parties to
Amendment No. 3, Amendment No. 6, Amendment No. 7 and Amendment No. 8 to the DSL
License Agreement which cover development work and additional engineering
support and technical support Seller provides to Purchaser.  On the Closing
Date, Seller and Purchasers agree that Amendment No. 3, Amendment No. 6,
Amendment No. 7 and Amendment No. 8 shall immediately terminate.  Seller
and Purchasers agree that Purchasers shall pay to Seller within thirty (30) days
following the Closing Date a pro rata amount for development work and additional
engineering and technical support provided by Seller for which Purchasers have
not yet paid Seller.  On the Closing Date, Seller shall provide Purchasers
with an invoice detailing the pro rata amount due.

     

    1.7 Seller and Purchaser Test
& Diagnostic Cooperation.  Seller and Purchasers agree to
cooperate with respect to Seller’s development of test and diagnostic products
as specified in Schedule 
1.7.

     

    1.8 Purchaser Lease of Seller
Real Property.  Beginning immediately after the Closing Date,
Seller agrees to lease to Lantiq US office and lab space at Seller’s facilities
at 40 Middlesex Turnpike, Bedford, Massachusetts 01730 subject to the terms of
form of Lease Agreement attached hereto as Schedule 
1.8.

     

    1.9 Purchase
Price.  At the Closing, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth herein, Purchasers shall pay to Seller, in consideration
for the purchase of the Purchased Assets and the assumption of the Assumed
Liabilities, an aggregate amount equal to $6,750,000.00 (the “Purchase Price”) by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated in writing
by Seller not less than two (2) business days prior to the Closing.

    1.10 Closing.  Subject
to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions contained in this Agreement, the
closing of the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets and assignment and
assumption of the Assumed Liabilities (the “Closing”) will take
place on the date that is five (5) business days following the satisfaction or
waiver of each of the conditions set forth in 
Article 5 (other
than those that by their terms are to be satisfied or waived at the Closing), or
at such other time as may be mutually agreeable to Seller and
Purchasers.  The date of the Closing is herein referred to as the
“Closing
Date.”  At the Closing, (a) Seller shall deliver to Purchasers
the Purchased Assets, (b) Purchasers shall deliver to Seller the Purchase Price
and shall assume the Assumed Liabilities, and (c) Seller and Purchasers and
their respective Affiliates shall deliver the documents, certificates and other
instruments that are required to be delivered by or on behalf of such Person
under Article 2
hereof and as may reasonably be required to effect the transfer by Seller to
Purchasers of the Purchased Assets and the assumption by Purchasers of the
Assumed Liabilities pursuant to and as contemplated by this
Agreement.  All events which shall occur at the Closing shall be
deemed to occur simultaneously.

     

    1.11 Transfer
Taxes.   Purchasers and Seller shall each be responsible
for and pay, as and when due, one-half of the payment of any transfer taxes
arising out of or in connection with the Closing; provided that Seller
shall remain responsible for any other Taxes (including any Taxes based on
income, sales Taxes, use Taxes or VAT) incurred in connection with Seller’s
conduct of the Business and use or ownership of the Purchased Assets prior to
the Closing Date.

    4.13 Patents, Trademarks and
Other Intangible Personal Property.

     

    (a) Seller
owns, or otherwise possesses, legally enforceable rights to use all Purchased
Patents, copyrights, and any applications therefor, domain names, maskworks, net
lists, schematics, technology, know-how, trade secrets, algorithms, computer
software programs or applications (in both source code and object code form),
and all trademarks, trade names and service marks and all other Intellectual
Property Rights included in the Purchased Assets (the “Seller Proprietary
Rights”), including those set forth on Schedule 
4.13(b) free and
clear of any and all liens, charges, security interests and other encumbrances
whatsoever.  With the exception of any Contract listed on the
Schedules hereto, Seller is not a party to any Contract related to any Purchased
Asset, including any such agreement whereby any such Purchased Asset is licensed
to any third party on an exclusive basis or whereby the manufacture, sale,
distribution or other use of any Purchased Asset, or the enforcement of any
right relating to any Purchased Asset is restricted.  Except as set
forth in this Section

4.13 and on Schedule 
4.13(b) hereto,
all of Seller’s rights in and to Seller Proprietary Rights, including (if
applicable) the right to create derivatives, are freely assignable in its own
name and Seller is under no obligation to obtain any approval or consent for use
of any of Seller Proprietary Rights.  The Seller Proprietary Rights,
together with all Intellectual Property Rights licensed pursuant to the DSL
License Agreement, represent all of Seller’s Intellectual Property Rights
related to the operation of the Business and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not alter, impair or extinguish
any Seller Proprietary Rights and any rights therein or thereto.  To
Seller’s knowledge, Seller has, where applicable, complied with its obligations
with regard to the Purchased Patents to any technical standards organizations in
all material respects.

     

    (b) Set forth
on Schedule 
4.13(b) is a
complete list of all registrations (and applications for registration) for
Intellectual Property Rights (including domain names and computer software
programs or applications) included in the Seller Proprietary Rights, specifying,
where applicable, the jurisdictions in which each such Seller Proprietary Right
has been issued or registered or in which an application for such issuance and
registration has been filed, including the respective registration or
application numbers and the names of all registered owners.

     

    (c) Seller is
not obligated to pay any royalties or other compensation to any third party in
respect of its ownership, use or license of any of the Seller Proprietary
Rights, except to the parties listed in Schedule 
4.13(c).

     

    (d) Set forth
on Schedule 
4.13(d) is a
complete list of all Contracts as to which Seller is a party and pursuant to
which Seller or any other person is authorized to use any Seller Proprietary
Right.  Seller is not in breach, default or other violation of any
Contract described on such list.  The Contracts are in full force and
effect and are binding and enforceable against each of the parties thereto in
accordance with their respective terms.  The execution and delivery of
this Agreement by Seller, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby, will not cause Seller to be in violation or default under any Contract,
nor entitle any other party to any Contract to terminate or modify such
Contract.

     

    (e) All of
the registrations (and applications for registration) for Seller Proprietary
Rights set forth on Schedule 
4.13(b)
as  issued by,  or filed with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office or Register of Copyrights or the corresponding offices of other
countries listed on Schedule 
4.13(b), have
been  duly  issued or filed, as the case may be, and have
been properly maintained and renewed in accordance with all applicable
provisions of law and administrative regulations in the United States and each
such other country.  Seller has used commercially reasonable efforts
to protect its rights in the Seller Proprietary Rights and has reasonably
maintained the confidentiality of its trade secrets, pending patent
applications, know-how and other confidential Seller Proprietary Rights, and
there have been no acts or omissions by Seller, the result of which would be to
materially compromise the rights of Seller to apply for or enforce appropriate
legal protection of such Seller Proprietary Rights.

    (f) Except
for any Patents that may be necessary to comply with a Standard, the use of the
Seller Proprietary Rights in the manner used by the Seller prior to the Closing
Date does not infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate any copyright,
patent, trademark, service mark, trade secret or other third party Intellectual
Property Right, and no claims with respect to the Purchased Assets (including
the Seller Proprietary Rights and any of the assets, properties and rights
contemplated to be licensed to (or the subject of any license to) Purchasers in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) have been
asserted or are threatened by any person nor is Seller aware of any valid
grounds for any claims (i) that the manufacture, development, sale, licensing or
use of the Purchased Assets as developed, sold or licensed or used by Seller,
infringes, misappropriates or otherwise violates on any copyright, patent,
trademark, service mark, trade secret or other third party Intellectual Property
Right, (ii) against the use by Seller of any trademarks, service marks,
trade names, trade secrets, copyrights, Patents, technology, know-how or
computer software programs and applications included in or used in connection
with the Purchased Assets (including the Seller Proprietary Rights) or (iii)

outstanding decree, order, judgment, or stipulation restricting in any manner
the licensing thereof by Seller.

     

    (g) Each
former and current employee, officer and consultant of Seller working or who has
worked with the Purchased Assets has executed an employment agreement which
covers items, including confidentiality, non-competition, trade secrets,
invention disclosures and intellectual property ownership in substantially the
form attached hereto as Schedule 
4.13(g) providing
Seller with title and ownership to Seller Proprietary Rights developed or used
by Seller and agreeing to maintain the confidentiality of Seller Proprietary
Rights and Seller’s other confidential information.  To the knowledge
of Seller, no employee, officer or consultant of Seller is in violation of any
term of any employment or consulting contract, proprietary information and
inventions agreement, non-competition agreement, or any other contract or
agreement relating to the relationship of any such employee, officer or
consultant with Seller or any previous employer.

     

    (h) All
documentation, specifications and other technical data necessary for the
development, manufacture, distribution or sale of the Purchased Assets
(including the Seller Proprietary Rights) and all written documentation,
specifications and other technical data useful for the development, manufacture,
distribution or sale of the Purchased Assets (including the Seller Proprietary
Rights) which are in Seller’s possession or control will be delivered to
Purchasers as part of the Purchased Assets (including the Seller Proprietary
Rights).

     

    (i) The use
of any software that constitutes part of the Seller Proprietary Rights by the
Seller has been in compliance with the terms of any open source license for any
open source code included in the Seller Proprietary Rights.

     

    (j) The
Purchased Assets do not contain open source software.

     

    4.14 Outbound IP
License.  Schedule 
1.2(c) lists each
Outbound IP License.  None of such instruments or documents has been
modified or amended, whether in writing, by custom or usage or otherwise and all
of such instruments and documents are in full force and effect in accordance
with their respective terms.

Agreements.  Seller is in compliance with all of its
obligations arising under the Purchased Inbound License Agreements in all
material respects, and there is no amount due under the Purchased Inbound
License Agreements for goods and services provided to Seller prior to the
Closing.  Neither Seller nor, to Seller’s knowledge, any other party
to any of the Purchased Inbound License Agreements is in breach, default or
other violation thereunder.  There has been no claim that there has
been any such default, breach or failure to comply and there are no existing
facts or conditions known to Seller that, with or without the passage of time,
notice or both, will result in a default under, breach of, or failure to comply
with any term or provision of a Purchased Inbound License
Agreement.

     

    4.16 Brokers’
Fees.  Seller has no liability to pay any fees or commissions
to any broker, finder, or agent with respect to the Purchased Assets, the
execution of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereunder for which
Purchasers could become liable or obligated.

     

    4.17 Solvency.  Seller
is not now insolvent and will not be rendered insolvent by the transactions
contemplated hereunder.  As used in this section, “insolvent” means
that the sum of the debts and other probable Liens of Seller exceeds the present
fair saleable value of Seller’s assets.

4.20(d)(i) above which have
happened in the last five (5) years prior to the date hereof, and (ii) all
actions, suits or other proceedings, including but not limited to lawsuits or
formally initiated conciliation/arbitration proceedings pending against Seller
by any Specified Employee or vice versa, involving works
councils or other employee representatives.

     

    (e) Except as
set forth on Schedule

4.20(e), with
respect to the Specified Employees, Seller has no current or potential
obligation to provide post-employment health, life or other welfare benefits to
such employees other than as required under section 4980B of the U.S. Tax Code
or any similar applicable Law.  With respect to the Specified
Employees or the Business, neither Seller nor any other entity that, together
with Seller, is or was (at a relevant time) treated as a single employer under
Section 414 of the U.S. Tax Code, has contributed to or has any liability with
respect to any plan subject to Title IV of ERISA or “multiemployer plan” (as
such term is defined under Section 3(37) of ERISA).

    (f) Seller
has complied in all material respects with all laws applicable to the employment
of each of the Specified Employees and has violated no such law in any material
respect in connection with the operation of the Business.  There do
not exist any pending or, to Seller’s knowledge, threatened claims (other than
routine undisputed claims for benefits), suits, actions or disputes relating to
any Specified Employee with respect to any Employee Plan.

     

    (g) Except as
set forth on Schedule  
4.20(g), Seller
has no Liabilities arising out of the employment, remuneration or hiring of any
of the Specified Employees prior to the Closing (and there is no basis for any
of the foregoing), other than ordinary payroll and benefit obligations that have
been fully accrued for in the ordinary course of business.

     

    (h) With
respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, any notice required under any
law or collective bargaining agreement has been, or prior to the Closing will
be, given, and all bargaining obligations with any employee representative have
been, or prior to the Closing will be, satisfied.

     

    (i) Except as
set forth on Schedule

4.20(i), the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not accelerate the time of the
payment or vesting of, or increase the amount of, or result in the forfeiture of
compensation or benefits for any Specified Employee under any Employee
Plan.

Interoperability Lab.  From and after the Closing, Seller shall
give Purchasers and its representatives access at all reasonable times to the

Seller’s interoperability lab (currently located in the Stewart lab on the
second floor of Seller’s facility in Bedford, Massachusetts ) and be permitted
to use the equipment located therein, as well as remote access to Seller’s data
and information used in connection therewith, on terms and conditions (including

employees.

     

    6.3 Payment of Taxes;
Cooperation on Tax Matters. 

     

    (a) Seller
shall pay, promptly and when due, whether at the original time fixed therefor or
pursuant to any extension of time to pay or any agreement with tax authorities,
any and all taxes, fees and other charges that shall become due or shall have
accrued on account of the operation and conduct of Seller’s Technology on or
before the Closing or on account of any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, provided, however,
that Seller shall not be required to pay any such tax, fee or charge if it is
contesting the validity or amount thereof through proper proceedings, in good
faith and with reasonable diligence if such contest does not, and will not, have
any adverse impact on Purchasers.

     

    (b) Seller
and Purchasers shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested
by the other, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns of each of Seller and
each Purchaser or in connection with any audit, litigation or other proceeding
with respect to Taxes of the Business.  Such cooperation shall include
the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and
information which are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other
proceeding and making representatives available on a mutually convenient basis
to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided
hereunder.

     

    6.4 Non-Competition;
Non-Solicitation; Non-Disclosure.

     

    (a) During
the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the third anniversary of the
Closing Date (the “Non-Compete Period”),
Seller shall not, and shall not allow its Affiliates to, either directly or
indirectly, Participate in any Competitive Business.  “Participate” includes
any direct or indirect ownership interest in any enterprise or participation in
the management of such enterprise, whether as an officer, director, employee,
partner, sole proprietor, agent, representative, executive, franchisor,
franchisee, creditor, owner or otherwise; provided that
ownership of less than 2% of the outstanding stock of any publicly-traded
corporation shall not be deemed to be Participating solely by the reason thereof
in any of its business.  “Competitive Business” means any business
anywhere in the world engaged in any business that the Business conducts or
proposes to conduct as of the Closing Date (other than (i) pursuant to
relationships with Purchasers or any of its Affiliates, (ii) Seller’s continued
business with respect to the Outbound IP Licenses listed in Schedule 
1.2,  and
(iii) Seller’s continued business with respect to the licensing and/or sale of
Non-Purchased Patents).

     

    (b) Seller
agrees, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, that during the
Non-Compete Period, Seller shall not, directly or indirectly:

     

    (i) induce or
attempt to induce any employee of either Purchaser, including the Specified
Employees, to leave the employ of such Purchaser; or

     

    (ii) hire any
employee of either Purchaser without the prior written consent of such
Purchaser.

    (c) Seller
agrees, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, that during the period
beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing
Date, Seller shall not, directly or indirectly, employ or otherwise retain the
services of any Specified Employee (it being agreed that if a Specified Employee
accepts an employment position with a Purchaser or a third party and such
Purchaser or third party terminates the employment of such Specified Employee
prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, then, subject in all
circumstances to Section 6.4(b), this
Section 6.4(c)
shall not restrict Seller’s right to hire such Specified Employee following such
termination).

     

    (d) Each
Purchaser agrees, on behalf of itself, that during the Non-Compete Period, it
shall not, directly or indirectly:

     

    (i) induce or
attempt to induce any employee of Seller (other than the Specified Employees) to
leave the employ of Seller; or

     

    (ii) hire any
employee of Seller (other than the Specified Employees) without the prior
written consent of Seller.

     

    (e) Seller
shall keep confidential, and shall not disclose to any third party or use any
confidential or proprietary information or trade secret relating to the Seller
Technology or any other Purchased Asset, including, by way of example and
without limitation, vendor lists, customer lists, source code, know-how and
trade secrets, except to the extent such information is published for
dissemination to the general public by, or with the written consent of,
Purchasers.  For avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything of the
foregoing, Seller may use any information retained in the unaided memories of
Seller’s employees who have had access to the Seller Technology or any other
Purchased Asset.  An employee’s memory is unaided if the employee has
not intentionally memorized the information for the purpose of retaining and
subsequently using or disclosing it to a third party.  It is
understood that no license or right of use under any Patent or patentable right,
copyright or trademark is granted or conveyed by this right under this
Agreement.

     

    (f) Seller
acknowledges and agrees that (i) the restrictions contained in this Section 
6.4 for the
benefit of Purchasers are reasonable in all respects (including with respect to
the subject matter, time period and geographical area) and are necessary to
protect the value of the Purchased Assets, (ii) Seller is primarily responsible
for the creation of such value and (ii) Purchasers would not have
consummated the transactions contemplated hereby without the restrictions
contained in this Section 
6.4.

     

    6.5 DSL License Agreement;
Assignment of Intellectual Property.  Seller shall have
executed and delivered (i) the DSL License Agreement and (ii) assignments of all
necessary Seller Proprietary Rights including the Patent Assignment Agreement
attached hereto as Schedule
1.1(a)(i).

     

    6.6 Employee
Matters.

     

    (a) Employment
Offers.  The employees of Seller as set forth in Schedule 
6.6 (the “Specified Employee”)
shall continue to be employed by Seller at the Closing.  At the
Closing, each Specified Employee shall be offered employment by Lantiq US, with
terms and conditions of employment, including base compensation, bonus
opportunity and benefits, that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to
those provided by Seller to such Specified Employee immediately prior to the
Closing (but not including any equity-based compensation); provided that nothing
in this Agreement shall limit the ability of Lantiq US (or one of its
Affiliates) to reduce the rate of compensation or benefits, or terminate the
employment, of any Specified Employee following acceptance of such
offer.  Effective on the Closing Date, Seller shall terminate
and  Lantiq US shall hire each Specified Employee who accepts such
offer of employment from Lantiq US or one of its Affiliates.  Seller
hereby consents to Lantiq US (or one of its Affiliates) contacting each
Specified Employee with respect to the desire of such employee to enter the
employ of Lantiq US (or one of its Affiliates) and Seller shall cooperate in
good faith with and use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist Lantiq US
to cause such Specified Employees to accept such offer of
employment.  Specified Employees will receive credit for such
employees’ period of employment with Seller for purposes of calculating future
accruals under any vacation program and for purposes of determining severance
pay under any applicable severance plan of Lantiq US; provided that Lantiq
US shall not assume any Liability for any retention, severance,
change-of-control or similar agreements between Seller or any of its Affiliates
and any of the Specified Employees in effect as of the Closing Date, and Seller
shall retain Liability for all obligations under any such retention, severance,
change-of-control or similar agreements.  Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary set forth herein, and for the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall also
remain solely liable and shall pay to each Specified Employee any and all wages,
salaries, vacation pay and compensation of any kind payable to any Specified
Employee for any period ending on or prior to the Closing
Date.  Furthermore, Seller shall process final payroll payments to
Specified Employees with respect to the payroll period in which the Closing Date
occurs and such payments shall include all compensation and vacation pay that is
earned but unpaid as of the Closing Date and during the entire payroll period in
which the Closing Date occurs and shall be made on or as soon as reasonably
practicable following the Closing Date; provided that
Purchaser shall reimburse Seller within five (5) business days of receipt of an
invoice from Seller for the portion of such payments relating solely to
compensation earned during post-Closing periods, the employer’s portion of
payroll taxes on such post-Closing compensation (e.g., FICA) and employer
matching contributions on the portion of such post-Closing compensation that is
deferred under Seller’s 401(k) plan.  Seller shall deliver to Lantiq
US as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date all personnel files
and employment records relating to the Specified Employees who accept employment
offers from Lantiq US, provided that Seller
may retain one copy of such files and records for applicable legally-required
document retention purposes.

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        -14-

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (b) COBRA.  Seller
is wholly responsible for complying with all applicable health care continuation
coverage requirements under Section 4980B of the U.S. Tax Code or similar
applicable laws (“COBRA”) under
Seller’s group health plans with respect to Specified Employees (and covered
dependents) whose qualifying events occur while such Specified Employees (and
covered dependents) participate under Seller’s group health plan and Purchaser
is wholly responsible for complying with such coverage requirements under COBRA
under Purchaser’s group health plan with respect to employees (and covered
dependents) employed by Lantiq US or one of its Affiliates from and after the
Closing whose qualifying events occur while such employees (and covered
dependents) participate under Purchaser’s group health plan.

     

    (c) Employee
Benefits.  As of the day
immediately following the Closing Date and for six months following the Closing
Date, Lantiq US or one of its Affiliates
shall permit Specified Employees to be eligible to participate in employee plans
and benefit arrangements of Lantiq US (or such Affiliate)  that provide benefits that
are substantially comparable in the aggregate to those provided by Seller to
such Specified Employees immediately prior to the Closing (but not including any
equity-based compensation) in accordance with the then prevailing terms of such
employee plans and benefit arrangements, provided that (i)
nothing herein shall prevent Lantiq US (or such Affiliate) from terminating the employment of any
such Specified Employee or modifying or terminating such plans from time to
time, (ii) for eligibility and vesting purposes under any such plan for which a
Specified Employee may be eligible after the Closing Date, Lantiq US (or such
Affiliate) shall ensure that service by
such Specified Employee with Seller shall be deemed to have been service with
Lantiq US (or such Affiliate), provided
such crediting of service does not result in a duplication of benefits, (iii)
all Specified Employees and their spouses and dependents who are covered under
Seller’s respective health plans at the time of the Closing shall be covered
immediately after the Closing Date, without any gap in coverage (and shall not
be excluded from coverage on account of any pre-existing condition) under a
group health plan of Lantiq US (or such
Affiliate), and (iv) Purchaser shall not be required to have a
replacement 401(k) plan in place immediately following the Closing Date as long
as Purchaser uses commercially reasonable efforts to adopt such plan as soon as
reasonably practicable following the Closing Date.  Effective as of
the Closing Date, Seller shall take all such actions as are necessary to fully
vest Specified Employees in all of their account balances under Seller’s 401(k)
plan.  Lantiq US and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to permit Specified Employees to rollover their account balances under the
Seller’s 401(k) plan (in the form of cash and notes associated with plan loans)
to a 401(k) plan sponsored by Purchaser (or one of its Affiliates) as soon as
reasonably practicable on or after the Closing Date.  Seller shall not
place any Specified Employees’ plan loans into default prior to the date of such
rollovers as long as such rollovers occur prior to the last day of the calendar
quarter following the calendar quarter in which the Closing Date
occurs.  Notwithstanding anything in this Section 
6.6 to the
contrary, if Lantiq US’s welfare benefit plans providing medical and dental
coverages have not been adopted and are not available to provide benefits to
Specified Employees on the day immediately following the Closing Date, Seller
shall take such actions as are necessary to permit Specified Employees (and
their covered dependents) to continue to participate under Seller’s group
medical and dental plans through December 31, 2009; provided that
Purchaser reimburses Seller for the cost of premiums for such coverage for each
full calendar month of coverage occurring during the period beginning on the
Closing Date and ending on December 31, 2009.  As soon as reasonably
practicable after the date of this Agreement, Seller shall inform the Specified
Employees of the effect of the transaction contemplated under this Agreement on
such employees’ health-care and dependent-care flexible spending accounts,
including the fact that such employees may forfeit unused amounts under such
accounts if they do not incur sufficient reimbursable expenses prior to the
Closing Date.

    (d) Certain Foreign National
Employees.  The parties recognize that the Specified Employees
listed on Schedule  
6.6(d) are in
nonimmigrant visa status or have applications for lawful permanent residence
pending with the relevant Governmental Entities (the “Affected
Foreign National Employees”).  The
parties further recognize that new or amended petitions with respect to such
Affected Foreign National Employees may be required in certain of these cases
identified on Schedule  
6.6(d), unless
Lantiq US (or any of its Affiliates, as the case may be) is deemed the
“successor-in- interest” to Seller (as such term is used in pronouncements by
the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (“USCIS”)) with respect
to such Affected Foreign National Employees.  Accordingly, Lantiq US
hereby agrees to assume Seller’s obligations to the USCIS as
“successor-in-interest” under such pending applications with respect to the
related Affected Foreign National Employees (including any obligations arising
from or under attestations made in each certified and still effective Labor
Condition Application (“LCA”) filed by Seller
with respect to any such Affected Foreign National Employees); provided that such
assumption shall not grant to any such Affected Foreign National Employee any
rights enforceable by such employee against Lantiq US. Each party agrees to use
commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as may reasonably be
requested at and following the Closing Date to document to the USCIS or such
other Governmental Entity, as the case may be, as may be necessary to
memorialize the “successor-in-interest” relationship with respect to any
Affected Foreign National Employees. Seller shall provide Purchaser with true
and complete copies of all applications, petitions and other documentation
related to the Affected Foreign National Employees’ immigration status on or
before the Closing Date.

     

    6.7 Transitional IT
Assistance.  Seller shall provide the IT Services, including
the following: (i) Separation Services to implement the Transitional Environment
and complete the Logical IT Carve-out pursuant to the High Level IT Carve-out
Project Plan attached hereto as Schedule 6.7(i); (ii)
Operational IT Services; and (iii) Separation Services pursuant to the Physical
IT Carve-out Project Plan which when completed will be attached hereto as Schedule
6.7(ii).  The purpose of the IT Services is to allow Purchasers
to establish their own IT for the Business in due time, allowing Purchasers to
continue the uninterrupted operation of the Business during the IT Transition
Period until completion of the Physical IT Carve-out.  The Operational
IT Services shall  be provided for a period of eight (8) months
following the Closing, provided that
Purchasers shall have the right, in their sole discretion, to extend such period
no more than twice for up to eight (8) months per extension upon written notice
to Seller provided that Purchasers remain tenants in Seller’s premises pursuant
to the Lease in Schedule 1.8 (the
aforesaid period and any extension shall hereinafter be referred to as the
“IT Transition
Period”).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchasers shall have
the right to terminate any or all of the IT Services on thirty (30) days written
notice to Seller.  All Operational IT Services shall be based on the
“services as before” concept, meaning that with regard to quality and service
levels, and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the IT Services provided to
Purchasers hereunder shall be substantially the same as the corresponding IT
services provided to the Business by Seller prior to Closing. Seller will
collaborate and cooperate with Purchasers to facilitate timely completion of the
Physical IT Carve-out (e.g., providing migration of electronic data files in
mutually agreed formats).  All IT Services shall be provided in a
professional and workmanlike manner and follow generally accepted best practices
for IT services.  Seller and Purchasers shall each designate in
writing an individual to serve as its primary point of contact for all IT
Services, which individual shall be responsible for all communication between
the Parties related to the same and shall promptly discuss and attempt to
resolve technical issues as well as disputes arising out of or relating to this
Section 6.7;
provided that
any dispute that cannot be resolved within five (5) business days shall be
referred in writing to the respective higher ranking management of each
Party.  In the event Seller experiences (or expects to experience) any
system downtime (including system maintenance activities), or otherwise changes
it systems in such a way that affects or may affect any IT Services, Seller
shall (a) notify Purchasers in advance in sufficient time to prepare for such
activities, (b) minimize the amount of time spent on such activities to the
extent possible and (c) treat Purchasers identically with respect to Seller with
respect to such downtime.  Seller shall maintain a disaster recovery
program for the IT Services pertinent to Purchasers consistent with the disaster
recovery program in place for such services within Seller’s IT, and, in the
event of an emergency situation and the disaster recovery policy is placed into
effect, Seller will keep Purchasers informed of the status of recovery
plans.  Seller shall not subcontract any IT Services without the prior
written consent of Purchasers.  Purchasers shall not be required to
pay for any IT Services other than the Operational IT Services.  For
the Operational IT Services, Lantiq Germany shall compensate Seller as further
described in Schedule
6.7.

    INDEMNIFICATION AND SURVIVAL
OF PROVISIONS

     

    Indemnification and Survival
of Provisions.

     

    7.1 Indemnification by
Seller.  Seller hereby agrees that from and after the Closing
it shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Purchaser, their respective
Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, stockholders, partners,
members, attorneys, accountants, agents, representatives and employees and their
heirs, successors and permitted assigns, each in their capacity as such (the
“Purchaser Indemnified
Parties”) from, against and in respect of any Damages imposed on,
sustained, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, any of the Purchaser
Indemnified Parties, whether in respect of Third-Party claims, claims between
the parties hereto, or otherwise, directly or indirectly relating to, arising
out of or resulting from, (i) any breach of any representation or warranty
(ignoring, for purposes of this Section 7.1, any
qualification as to materiality contained therein) made by Seller contained in
this Agreement or any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement so long as
notice thereof is delivered to Seller during the period such representation or
warranty survives, (ii) any Excluded Liability or any failure to timely
discharge or fulfill any of the Excluded Liabilities, and (iii) any breach
of a covenant or agreement of Seller contained in this Agreement or any document
delivered pursuant to this Agreement.  Damages include any and all
claims, costs, losses, expenses, liabilities or other damages, including
interest, penalties and reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements by reason
of or otherwise arising out of any Excluded Liability or any breach by the other
party of a representation, warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement
(collectively “Damages”).

     

    7.2 Indemnification by
Purchasers.  Purchasers hereby agree that from and after the
Closing they shall jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless
Seller, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, stockholders,
partners, members, attorneys, accountants, agents, representatives and employees
and their heirs, successors and permitted assigns, each in their capacity as
such (the “ Seller
Indemnified Parties” ) from, against and in respect of any Damages
imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, any of the
Seller Indemnified Parties, whether in respect of Third-Party claims, claims
between the parties hereto, or otherwise, directly or indirectly relating to,
arising out of or resulting from, (i) any breach of any representation or
warranty made by any Purchaser contained in this Agreement or any document
delivered pursuant to this Agreement so long as notice thereof is delivered to
Seller during the period such representation or warranty survives, (ii) any
Assumed Liability or any failure to timely discharge or fulfill any of the
Assumed Liabilities, and (iii)  any breach of a covenant or agreement of
any Purchaser contained in this Agreement or any document delivered pursuant to
this Agreement.

     

    7.3 Third Party
Claims.  Each party (the “Indemnified Party”)
agrees to notify the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”)
of any Damages asserted by third parties that, in the opinion of Indemnified
Party, are reasonably likely to give rise to indemnification hereunder (“Third-Party
Claims”).  The Indemnifying Party may (a) participate in the
defense of any Third-Party Claim or (b) upon written notice thereof, and written
acknowledgement without reservation of rights that the Indemnifying Party shall
be solely responsible for such Third Party Claim and all Damages relating
thereto (notwithstanding any limitations set forth in this Section 7 that would
otherwise apply with respect thereto, which shall not thereafter be applicable)
to the Indemnified Party, assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim, with
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided that the
party assuming the defense may not assume such defense if there exists a
conflict of interest between the positions of the Indemnified Party and such
Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim or if such Third-Party Claim seeks
equitable relief against the Indemnified Party.  The Indemnified Party
agrees that it will not settle any Third-Party Claims without the consent of the
Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed.  The Indemnified Party further agrees that if the
Indemnifying Party wishes to enter into a settlement with respect to a

Claim (a “ Direct
Claim” ), the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in
