following terms: 

  

	 	11.3.1	an obligation on the recipient to utilize the disclosed Confidential Information for the benefit of the discloser and in compliance with applicable restrictions set forth in Section 7 and/or Section 8; and

  

	 	11.3.2	a requirement that such disclosures are subject to confidentiality terms and conditions that are no less restrictive than those non-disclosure related terms set forth herein, and at a minimum must have a confidentiality
term that is no shorter than [*] years from the scheduled SOW termination date of the respective Statement of Work. 

  

	 	11.4	With respect to information that does not relate to the Joint Development Work and which is considered confidential by either Party, it is not the intention of any Party to disclose to or obtain from the other Party any
such information. In particular, the Parties acknowledge that each has other development projects and relationships being conducted in their respective facilities, and the Parties shall take reasonable precautions to limit the disclosure and receipt
of Information unrelated to the Joint Development Work. In the event that either Party obtains such information of the other Party that is designated as confidential and is not related with the Joint Development Work or which should from its nature
be understood to be confidential and not related with the Joint Development Work, the Program Managers shall be informed, and any such information shall promptly be returned. 

 

	 	11.5	Using such measures as Recipient uses to protect the confidentiality of its own Confidential Information of like importance, but in no event using less than reasonable care, the Parties shall treat all Confidential
Information as confidential and for a period of [*] years after disclosure shall not disclose Confidential Information to any third party, other than to its employees and/or Consultants on a need to know basis, except as otherwise expressly set
forth herein, or as otherwise expressly authorized by Discloser in a writing that states the title of this Agreement and its Effective Date. 

  

	 	11.6	On termination of this Agreement and upon request of the terminating Party, all Confidential Information of the other Party in each Party’s possession or control will be destroyed or returned to the Party to whom
such Confidential Information belongs.

	 	11.7	Subject to any patent rights, copyrights and trademark rights, the Parties agree that as a result of exposure to Confidential Information of the Provider, personnel of the Recipient may gain or enhance general
knowledge, skills and experience related to the Confidential Information (“General Knowledge”). The subsequent internal use by these personnel of such General Knowledge as retained in their unaided memories, without reference to
Confidential Information in written, electronic or other fixed form, shall not constitute a breach of the confidentiality obligation under this Section 11. A person’s memory is considered unaided if the employee has not intentionally
memorized the Confidential Information for the purpose of retaining and subsequently using or disclosing it. 

  

	 	11.8	In the event that either Party engages with a third party to develop MRAM technology, the engaging Party agrees, prior to and concurrently with such engagement, to implement, as commercially reasonable, access control

Party’s intention to terminate. 

  

	 	12.1.2	Such Party terminates the MA as a result of the other Party’s material breach of the MA (in accordance with and as such terms and conditions are defined in the MA). 

 

	 	12.1.3	The other Party becomes the subject of any voluntary or involuntary proceeding in bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, receivership, attachment or composition or general assignment for the benefit of creditors;
provided that if such condition is assumed involuntarily it has not been dismissed with prejudice within ninety (90) days after it begins. 

  

	 	12.1.4	The other Party is purchased by a third party or otherwise experiences a change of control of more than fifty percent of its outstanding stock, except in connection with an authorized assignment or transfer as provided
in Section 20, with such termination effective immediately.

	Joint Development Agreement	  	Everspin/GLOBALFOUNDRIES CONFIDENTIAL
	Between Everspin and GLOBALFOUNDRIES	  	

  

	 	17.3	All volumes stated in this Agreement are calculated as number of Royalty Wafers sold or transferred by GLOBALFOUNDRIES to a Customer and do not include internal transfer of Royalty Wafers to GLOBALFOUNDRIES Affiliates,
related GLOBALFOUNDRIES companies or development partners for development purposes. 

  

	 	17.4	Within thirty (30) days following (i) the end of the first calendar quarter in which Royalty Wafers are sold or transferred to Customers and (ii) each calendar quarter thereafter for which GLOBALFOUNDRIES
has a royalty obligation pursuant to Section 17.1, GLOBALFOUNDRIES shall provide a written report to Everspin stating the cumulative royalties due as a result of Royalty Wafer sales to Customers in the previous calendar quarter (“Quarterly
Report”). Upon receipt of the Quarterly Report, Everspin will issue an invoice for any Royalties due within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving the corresponding Quarterly Report. GLOBALFOUNDRIES shall pay Everspin the royalties due for
each such quarter within fifteen (15) of receiving the Everspin invoice. 

  

	 	17.5	Everspin shall determine to what extent the royalties agreed upon under this Agreement are subject to any value added tax, sales tax, goods and services tax, business tax or similar taxes. To the extent that the
royalties agreed upon under this Agreement are subject to any VAT, sales tax, goods and services tax, business taxes or similar taxes, and to the extent that Everspin is required by law to collect and remit such taxes to the responsible tax
authorities, such taxes shall be paid by GLOBALFOUNDRIES or its respective Affiliate in addition to the agreed Royalty Amounts. Everspin is obliged to render proper invoices within the meaning of the applicable tax law. In the event any tax
exemptions apply, GLOBALFOUNDRIES or its respective Affiliate shall provide Everspin with all legally required information, certificates or other documents in a timely manner. GLOBALFOUNDRIES or its respective Affiliate shall not be liable for any
penalty or interest charges resulting from Everspin’s failure to collect such value added tax, sales tax, goods and services tax, business tax or similar taxes or from any incorrect invoicing by Everspin unless GLOBALFOUNDRIES or its respective
Affiliate have not provided the legally required information, certificates or documents referred to above (as appropriate) in an accurate and timely manner to allow Everspin to determine to what extent such value added tax, sales tax, goods and
services tax, business tax or similar taxes are applicable.

	Joint Development Agreement	  	Everspin/GLOBALFOUNDRIES CONFIDENTIAL
	Between Everspin and GLOBALFOUNDRIES	  	

  

	 	17.6	If payments made hereunder by GLOBALFOUNDRIES or its respective Affiliate are subject to deduction of any withholding taxes imposed by applicable laws, GLOBALFOUNDRIES or its respective Affiliate shall have the right to
withhold from payments to Everspin any taxes that GLOBALFOUNDRIES or its respective Affiliate is required to withhold under such laws. GLOBALFOUNDRIES or its respective Affiliate shall provide Everspin with a certificate from the applicable tax
authorities or other documentation reasonably required by Everspin to evidence such tax payment. In the event Everspin wishes to rely on a reduced withholding tax rate under applicable income tax treaty provisions by and between GLOBALFOUNDRIES or
its respective Affiliate and Everspin’s respective legal country of domicile, Everspin is to furnish to GLOBALFOUNDRIES or its respective Affiliate at the start of each year, a proper exemption certificate in form and substance satisfactory to
GLOBALFOUNDRIES or its respective Affiliate. The Parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in order to reduce the tax burden on each party arising under this Agreement. 

 

	 	17.7	GLOBALFOUNDRIES shall keep records in sufficient detail to permit the determination of royalties payable to Everspin hereunder. Such records shall be kept for [*] years after the date of their creation.

  

	 	17.8	To ensure compliance with the royalty and other payment obligations of this Agreement, during the term of this Agreement and for a period of [*] years thereafter, either Party shall have the right to conduct an audit of
the relevant information of the other Party, by a mutually acceptable audit firm, for up to a twelve month payment period. Upon prior written request (at least sixty (60) days in advance) from the other Party, the audited Party will provide the
audit firm access to relevant records and personnel during regular business hours for these purposes. In no event shall audits be made hereunder more frequently than once in every twelve (12) month period, unless an audit has revealed a
material underpayment within the last twelve (12) months. The time period that is audited will not be subject to subsequent audits. The cost of such audit shall be borne by the auditing Party unless the audit reveals an underpayment of more
than [*]% of the amount due and owing to the other Party in which case the cost of the audit, the underpayment and reasonable interest shall be borne by the Party being audited. 

 

	 	17.9	In the event, however, that a Party determines and objectively shows that STT-MRAM Devices for which compensation is due under the Agreement have been manufactured, but no royalty or license fee is paid thereon, and the
failure to pay such royalty or license fee is not as a result of accounting or human error, but is due to a Party’s decision not to pay such royalties or license fee despite having knowledge that Design Information was utilized in the
manufactured STT-MRAM Device, the interest rate due for such underpayment will double.
