                                   ARTICLE IV
                   GENERAL PROVISIONS REGARDING LICENSE GRANTS

          4.1.   Third-Party Rights. The licenses granted by C&A Products
pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 2.2 of this Agreement are subject to the
third-party license rights in the Intellimold IP existing as of the Effective
Date. The licenses granted with respect to Intellimold Enhancements by C&A
Products and its Affiliates pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 2.2 and by Textron and
its Affiliates pursuant to Section 3.1 are further subject to the conditions
and restrictions imposed by third-party licensors of such rights, if any;
provided, however, that each party will use commercially reasonable efforts to
minimize the adverse impact of any such conditions and restrictions on each
other party.

          4.2.   Mutual Covenant Not to Sue. Each party agrees not to bring, to
cause its Affiliates under its control not to bring, and to prohibit any
sublicensee from bringing, any infringement suits, actions or proceedings
against another party, its Affiliates or its sublicensees with respect to any
patents owned by or licensed (with the right to bring infringement suits) to
the first party or its Affiliates that are related to the subject matter of the
Intellimold IP or Intellimold Enhancements in the event that any Use of the
Intellimold IP or Intellimold Enhancements by another party, its Affiliates or
sublicensees as permitted by this Agreement, infringes or appears to infringe
any such patents. Each party further agrees to impose, and to cause its
Affiliates to impose, this covenant on any third party to which such patents
may be assigned.

          4.3.   Delivery of Intellectual Property. All Intellectual Property in
tangible form licensed hereunder shall be delivered to the licensee thereof
promptly upon written request of such licensee or, if such Intellectual
Property constitutes an Intellimold Enhancement, as soon as reasonably
practicable after development of such Intellectual Property.

          4.4.   Grandfathering of Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, neither Textron nor any of its Affiliates, as applicable,
shall be in breach of this Agreement on account of (i) the granting of any
sublicense by Textron or such Affiliate or (ii) the Use by Textron or such
Affiliate or their respective sublicensees of all or any part of the
Intellimold IP or any Intellimold Enhancement, in each case, within the
Restricted Field,
<PAGE>
                                       -10-

provided that, with respect to clause (i), the granting of such sublicense was
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as of the date on which it was
entered into by the parties and, with respect to clause (ii), such Use was in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement as of the date of commencement of
such Use or, with respect to Use by a sublicensee, as of the date on which the
relevant sublicense agreement was entered into by the parties. The parties agree
and acknowledge that the foregoing provision is intended to clarify the intent
of the parties that any expansion of the Restricted Field pursuant to clause
(iii) of such definition after the Effective Date shall not operate to exclude
Textron and its Affiliates from their respective operations, or restrict third
parties in the exercise of their rights under existing sublicenses, solely in
such portion of the expanded Restricted Field as was not included within the
Restricted Field as of the Effective Date.

          4.5.   Lease Equipment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, neither Textron nor any of its Affiliates shall be in breach of any
provision of this Agreement on account of Textron's or its Affiliate's (i) Use,
solely outside the Restricted Field, or (ii) lease, license, sale or other
transfer to any third party (in each case, whether or not in the Restricted
Field) of all or any part of Textron's or its Affiliate's right, title or
interest in or to any Equipment (as defined in any lease contemplated by the
Equipment Lease Term Sheet), provided that the leases contemplated by the
Equipment Lease Term Sheet are terminated or otherwise cease to be in effect
for any reason and Textron or any of its Affiliates continue to own any
interest in the Equipment. In addition, solely in the event that such leases
are terminated due to a Default (as such term is defined in any such lease) by
C&A Products or a Subsidiary of C&A Products, Textron and its Affiliates shall
be entitled to Use the Equipment within the Restricted Field. C&A Products
hereby grants and, as applicable, shall cause its Affiliates to grant to
Textron and its Affiliates and their respective transferees such rights in the
Intellimold IP and Intellimold Enhancements as are required in order for
Textron and its Affiliates and their respective transferees to engage in any of
the activities set forth in this Section 4.5.

covered by clause (i) of Section 5.1, and (ii) ten percent (10%) of Net

and all payments to C&A Products under this Agreement.

the prosecution and maintenance of any patents and patent applications with

Products.  Textron may request in writing that C&A Products pursue patent
protection with respect to specific Intellimold IP and C&A Products Intellimold
Enhancements in specified jurisdictions ("Textron Requested Jurisdictions").
However, in the event that C&A Products declines to prosecute or maintain any
such patents in one or more Textron Requested Jurisdictions, or fails to
provide Textron with written notice of its intent to prosecute or maintain any
such patents within fifteen (15) days of receiving such request, Textron may

all such jurisdictions in C&A Products' name and at Textron's cost, by
providing C&A Products with written notice of such election within thirty (30)
days of the date of Textron's original request to C&A Products. Any such

Intellimold IP or C&A Products Intellimold Enhancements under this Agreement.

Textron shall have sole control and discretion over the prosecution and
maintenance of any patent and patent applications with respect to the Textron
Intellimold Enhancements, and the costs of such prosecution and maintenance
shall be borne by Textron. C&A Products may request in writing that Textron
pursue patent protection with respect to specific Textron Intellimold
Enhancements in specified jurisdictions ("C&A Products Requested
Jurisdictions"). However, in the event that Textron declines to prosecute or
maintain any such patents in one or more C&A Products Requested Jurisdictions,
or fails to provide C&A Products with written notice of its intent to prosecute
or maintain any such patents within fifteen (15) days of receiving such request,

to Use any Textron Intellimold Enhancements under this Agreement.

          7.3.   Third Party Infringement.

          (a)   Cooperation. Each party shall promptly notify the other parties

Trademark covered by this Agreement by any third party.

          (b)   Suits Against Third Party Infringers.

          (i)   C&A Products shall have the exclusive right, even as to Textron,
to institute and prosecute, at its sole expense, lawsuits against all third
parties that infringe, or appear to infringe, the Intellimold IP, Intellimold
Enhancements or Textron Intellimold Trademarks, in each case solely within the
Restricted Field. Textron shall reasonably cooperate with C&A Products in all
such suits and actions, at C&A Products' expense; without limitation, Textron
agrees that C&A Products may cause Textron to join it as a party to any such
suit. C&A Products shall be entitled to retain any and all damages that may be
received, collected or recovered in any such suit or action, whether by
judgment, settlement or otherwise. If C&A Products fails to bring or maintain
any such action, suit or proceeding within sixty (60) days after becoming aware
of a material, likely infringement of the Intellimold IP, Intellimold
Enhancements or Textron Intellimold Trademarks within the Restricted Field,
Textron shall have the right to maintain such action, suit or proceeding with
the reasonable cooperation of C&A Products (at Textron's expense for such
cooperation), and Textron shall be entitled to retain any and all damages that
may be received, collected or recovered in any such suit or action, whether by
judgment, settlement or otherwise. C&A Products shall have the right to
participate in any such action, suit or proceeding maintained by Textron, at
C&A Products' expense, and shall have the right, in its reasonable discretion,
to approve or reject any settlement proposed in connection therewith.

          (ii)   Textron shall have the exclusive right, even as to C&A
Products, to institute and prosecute, at its sole expense, lawsuits against all
third parties that infringe, or appear to infringe, the Intellimold IP,
Intellimold Enhancements or Textron Intellimold Trademarks, in each case outside
the Restricted Field. C&A Products shall reasonably cooperate
with Textron in all such suits and actions, at Textron's expense; without
limitation, C&A Products agrees that Textron may cause C&A Products to join it
as a party to any such suit. Textron shall be entitled to retain any and all
damages that may be received, collected or recovered in any such suit or
action, whether by judgment, settlement or otherwise. If Textron fails to bring
or maintain any such action, suit or proceeding within sixty (60) days after
becoming aware of a material, likely infringement of the Intellimold IP,
Intellimold Enhancements or Textron Intellimold Trademarks outside the
Restricted Field, C&A Products shall have the right to maintain such action,
suit or proceeding with the reasonable cooperation of Textron (at C&A Products'
expense for such cooperation), and C&A Products shall be entitled to retain any
and all damages that may be received, collected or recovered in any such suit or
action, whether by judgment, settlement or otherwise. Textron shall have the
right to participate in any such action, suit or proceeding maintained by C&A
Products, at Textron's expense, and shall have the right, in its reasonable
discretion, to approve or reject any settlement proposed in connection
therewith.

          (c)   Defense Against Infringement Claims. Textron and C&A Products
shall cooperate to diligently defend against any third party infringement
claims, demands or actions involving the Intellimold IP (each, an "Infringement
Claim"). As between the parties, the party whose Use of the Intellimold IP is
the subject of the Infringement Claim (the "Defending Party") shall defend such
Infringement Claim at its own expense. Any settlement or compromise concerning
any such Infringement Claim shall be subject to the approval of the
non-Defending Party, which approval shall not be withheld unreasonably.

                                  ARTICLE VIII
                          PROVISION OF SUPPORT SERVICES

          8.1.   Services. For a period of five (5) years from the Effective
Date, C&A Products agrees to provide, or to cause its Affiliates to provide,
such engineering, installation, technical, sales/marketing, training and other
services (including development of specifications and performance
characteristics for new products and applications) relative to the Intellimold
IP and C&A Products Intellimold Enhancements as Textron and its Affiliates may
reasonably request from time to time (the "Support Services"). Such Support
Services shall be provided directly to Textron and its Affiliates or to such
third parties (including sublicensees of the Intellectual Property licensed
hereunder) as Textron or its Affiliates may designate, consistent with the
license grants herein.

          8.2.   Personnel. In order to fulfill its obligations pursuant to
Section 8.1, C&A Products shall make available sufficient personnel resources
to meet Textron's and its Affiliates' reasonable forecasted needs for Support
Services. Without limitation of the foregoing, C&A Products shall make available
to Textron and its Affiliates, on the terms set forth in Sections 8.4 and 8.5,
the services of Milko Guergov as reasonably requested by Textron for so long as
Mr. Guergov remains in the employ (whether as an employee, consultant or
otherwise) of C&A Products or any of its Affiliates. C&A Products shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to continue to retain Mr. Guergov for the period
during which C&A Products provides Support Services hereunder.

          8.3.   Collocation of Textron Employees. Textron and its Authorized
Affiliates shall be entitled to maintain, at the expense of Textron or the
relevant Authorized Affiliate(s), for a period of one (1) year from the date
hereof, a maximum of three (3) employees at the M&C facility at any one time
for training purposes.

          8.4.   Relationship. The parties agree that C&A Products and its
Affiliates, agents and employees shall at all times act in the capacity of
independent contractor in their provision of Support Services, and that no
relationship of agency or employment will thereby be intended or implied. C&A
Products further agrees that all work product resulting from the
<PAGE>
                                       -15-

provision of the Support Services shall constitute "works made for hire" under
applicable law and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of
Textron, subject to the license grants in favor of C&A Products and its
Affiliates contained herein.

          8.5.   Price and Payment for Support Services. All Support Services
shall be billed to Textron at C&A Products' cost unless otherwise agreed in
advance in writing. For purposes of this Section 8.5, "C&A Products' cost"
shall mean an amount equal to one hundred thirty-five percent (135%) of the
total cash compensation paid by C&A Products or any of its Affiliates to the
persons providing the Support Services (pro-rated to reflect the percentage of
such persons' total time spent in providing such Support Services) plus any
reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by C&A Products or any of its
Affiliates in connection therewith. C&A Products shall invoice Textron for
Support Services rendered on a quarterly basis in arrears and Textron shall pay
each such invoice within thirty (30) days of its receipt. Invoices shall set
forth the basis for amounts due with reasonable specificity, and Textron shall
have the right, not more often than once per year and on reasonable prior
notice, to inspect the relevant books and records of C&A Products to determine
the accuracy of such invoiced amounts.

          8.6.   Option to Renew.  Following the expiration of the initial
five (5)-year term, Textron shall be entitled, at its discretion, to continue
to receive Support Services for an additional five (5)-year term, at prices and
on terms to be negotiated in good faith by the parties.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                                 INDEMNIFICATION

          9.1.   Mutual Indemnification. Each of Textron and C&A Products (the
"Indemnifying Party") shall indemnify the other party and such other party's
Affiliates, including their respective employees, agents, officers and
directors (the "Indemnified Party") from and against and in respect of any and
all Losses which may be imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by or
assessed against such Indemnified Party, directly or indirectly, to the extent
relating to or arising out of or incurred in connection with any third-party
claim that any authorized use of any Intellimold Enhancement licensed by the
Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 2.1 or 2.2, in
the case of C&A Products, or Section 3.1, in the case of Textron, infringes any
third-party intellectual property right. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither
party shall have any obligation to indemnify the other to the extent that any
such claim of infringement is based upon (i) the combination, operation or use
of the licensed Intellimold Enhancement with other Intellectual Property, if
the use of such licensed Intellimold Enhancement would not be infringing in the
absence of such combination, operation or use with other Intellectual Property,
or (ii) modifications of a licensed Intellimold Enhance-
<PAGE>
                                       -16-

ment by any person other than the Indemnifying Party where the unmodified
version of such licensed Intellimold Enhancement would not be infringing.

          9.2.   Notice. If the Indemnified Party shall become aware of any
claim, proceeding or other matter (a "Claim") which may give rise to a Loss for
which indemnification may be sought pursuant to this Article IX, the
Indemnified Party shall promptly give notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party.
Such notice shall specify with reasonable particularity (to the extent that the
information is then available) the factual basis for the Claim and the amount
of the Claim, if known. If the Indemnified Party does not promptly give notice
of any Claim as specified above, such failure shall not be deemed a waiver of
the Indemnified Party's right to indemnification hereunder for Losses in
connection with such Claim, but the amount of reimbursement to which the
Indemnified Party is entitled shall be reduced by the amount, if any, by which
the Indemnified Party's Losses would have been reduced had such notice been
promptly delivered.

          9.3.   Defense.

          (a)   The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its expense and
at its election, to assume control of the negotiation, settlement and defense
of the Claim through counsel of its choice. In such event, the Indemnifying
Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Party for all the Indemnified Party's
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses as a result of such assumption. The election
of the Indemnifying Party to assume such control shall be made within ninety
(90) days of receipt of notice of Claim, failing which the Indemnifying Party
shall be deemed to have elected not to assume such control. If the Indemnifying
Party elects to assume such control, the Indemnified Party shall have the right
to be informed and consulted with respect to the negotiation, settlement or
defenses of such Claim and to retain counsel to act on its behalf, but the fees
and disbursements of such counsel shall be paid by the Indemnified Party unless
the Indemnifying Party consents to the retention of such counsel or unless the
named parties to any action or proceeding include both the Indemnifying Party
and the Indemnified Party and a representation of both the Indemnifying Party
and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to the
actual or potential differing interests between them (such as the availability
of different defenses). If the Indemnifying Party, having elected to assume such
control, thereafter fails to defend the Claim within a reasonable period of
time, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume such control, and the
Indemnifying Party shall be bound by the results obtained by the Indemnified
Party with respect to the Claim. If any Claim is of a nature such that the
Indemnified party is required by applicable law to make a payment to any third
party with respect to the Claim before the completion of settlement negotiations
or related legal proceedings, the Indemnified Party may make such payment and
the Indemnifying Party shall, after demand by the Indemnified Party, reimburse
the Indemnified Party for such payment. If the amount of any liability of the
Indemnified Party under the Claim in respect of which such payment was made, as
finally determined, is
<PAGE>
                                       -17-

less than the amount which was paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified
Party, the Indemnified Party shall, promptly after receipt of the difference
from the third party, pay the amount of such difference to the Indemnifying
Party.

          (b)   If the Indemnifying Party fails to assume control of the defense
of any Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the exclusive right to consent,
settle or pay the amount claimed. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes
control of the negotiation, settlement or defense of any Claim, the
Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Claim without the written consent of
the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed, unless such settlement provides solely for monetary
damages or other monetary payments.

                                    ARTICLE X
                LIMITATION OF LIABILITY; DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

          10.1.   Disclaimer of Certain Damages. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED
BY LAW, EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO OBLIGATIONS PURSUANT TO ARTICLE IX
(INDEMNIFICATION), NO PARTY OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE
AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS OR DIRECTORS SHALL BE LIABLE TO ANOTHER PARTY OR
ANY THIRD PERSON UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, RELIANCE OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOST OR IMPUTED PROFITS
OR ROYALTIES, LOST DATA OR COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES,
WHETHER LIABILITY IS ASSERTED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT
PRODUCT LIABILITY) INDEMNITY OR CONTRIBUTION, AND IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER THAT
PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE.

          10.2.

          (a)   Representation and Warranty of Textron. Textron represents and
warrants that neither Textron nor any Affiliate of Textron has, between August
7, 2001 and the Effective Date, entered into any agreement to license or
sublicense to any third party all or any part of the Intellimold IP in all or
any part of the Restricted Field.

          (b)   Disclaimer of Warranties. EACH PARTY AGREES AND ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.2(a) AND IN THE PURCHASE
AGREEMENT, NO PARTY MAKES ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND
WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, AND HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL
<PAGE>
                                       -18-

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
AGAINST NON-INFRINGEMENT OR THE LIKE, OR ARISING FROM COURSE OF PERFORMANCE,
COURSE OF DEALING OR FROM TRADE PRACTICE.

          10.3.   Applicability of Limitations. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE
LIMITATIONS SPECIFIED IN THIS ARTICLE X SHALL SURVIVE AND APPLY EVEN IF ANY
LIMITED REMEDY SPECIFIED IN THIS AGREEMENT IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS
ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

                                   ARTICLE XI
                           PERFORMANCE OF OBLIGATIONS

          From and after the Effective Date, each of Textron and Holdings shall
cause its respective Affiliates to perform their respective covenants and
obligations contained in this Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE XII
                            MISCELLANEOUS AND GENERAL

          12.1.   Interpretation.

Agreement.

shall in no manner affect the right of such party at a later time to enforce the
same or any other provision of this Agreement. No waiver of any condition or
breach of any term contained in this Agreement in one or more instances shall be
deemed to be a, or construed as a further or continuing, waiver of such
condition or breach.

          12.5.   Counterparts.  For the convenience of the parties hereto,
this Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each counterpart being deemed
to be an original instrument, and such counterparts shall together constitute

or shall cause its Affiliates to provide, assistance to Textron and Affiliates
of Textron in connection with the Retained IP, including without limitation
support in respect of integration, deployment and Use of the Retained IP as well

Support Services shall be provided directly to Textron and its Affiliates or to
such third parties (including authorized assignees, licensees and sublicensees
of Textron's Intellectual Property rights hereunder) as Textron or its
Affiliates may designate, consistent with the license grants and other terms and
provisions herein. In order to fulfill its obligations pursuant to this Section
3.4, C&A Products shall make available, or shall cause its Affiliates to make
available, sufficient personnel resources to meet Textron's and its Affiliates'
reasonable forecasted needs, not to exceed three hundred (300) man hours in any
calendar year unless agreed in writing, for Support Services. Subject to the
foregoing proviso, during the period beginning as of the Effective Date and
ending on the first anniversary thereof (the "Designated Support Period"), C&A
Products shall make available to Textron and its Affiliates the services of the
individuals set forth on Exhibit B hereto (the "Designated Employees"), or other
individuals with substantially comparable skills relative to the subject
technology, as reasonably requested by Textron, in each case for so long as such
Designated Employee remains in the employ (whether as an employee, consultant or
otherwise) of C&A Products or any of its Affiliates, and shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to continue to retain each Designated Employee, or other
individuals with substantially comparable skills relative to the subject
technology, for the duration of the Designated Support Period. At all times
during the period in which Support Services are to be provided hereunder, C&A
Products shall designate an individual or individuals to serve as contact
person(s) for Textron and its Affiliates with respect to such Support Services.
All Support Services rendered hereunder shall be billed to Textron at C&A
Products' cost unless otherwise agreed in advance in writing. For purposes of
this Section 3.4, "C&A Products' cost" shall mean an amount equal to one hundred
thirty-five percent (135%) of the total cash compensation paid by C&A Products
or any of its Affiliates to the persons providing the Support Services
(pro-rated to reflect the percentage of such persons' total time spent in
providing such Support Services) plus any reasonable out-of-pocket costs
incurred by C&A Products or any of its Affiliates in connection therewith. C&A
Products shall invoice Textron for Support Services rendered on a quarterly
basis in arrears and Textron shall pay each such invoice within thirty (30) days
of its receipt. Invoices shall set forth the basis for amounts due with
reasonable specificity, and Textron shall have the right, not more often than
once per year and on reasonable prior notice, to inspect the relevant books and
records of C&A Products to determine the accuracy of such invoiced amounts.

                  3.5. Ownership of Retained IP. The parties agree and
acknowledge that, as between the parties and except for the express grants of
license contained herein, Textron shall own all right, title and interest in and
to the Retained IP, and that no Use of any such Retained IP by C&A Products or
its sublicensees shall vest in C&A Products or such sublicensees any right,
title or interest therein.

                  3.6. Reasonable Cooperation. In addition, each party shall,
upon the other party's written request, provide such other party with all
reasonable cooperation (at the requesting party's expense) in order to secure
and perfect such other party's rights in Intellectual Property as provided by
this Agreement.

                  3.7. Grandfathering of Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, neither Textron nor any of its Affiliates, as applicable, shall
be in breach of this Agreement on account of (i) the granting of any sublicense
by Textron or such Affiliate or (ii) the Use by the relevant sublicensee of all
or any part of the Retained IP pursuant to such sublicense, in each case, within
the Restricted Field, provided that, with respect to clause (i), the granting of
such sublicense was in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as of the
date on which it was entered into by the parties and, with respect to clause
(ii), such Use was in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as of the date
on which the relevant sublicense agreement was entered into by the parties. The
parties agree and acknowledge that the foregoing provision is intended to
clarify the intent of the parties that any expansion of the Restricted Field
pursuant to clause (iii) of such definition after the Effective Date shall not
operate to exclude Textron and its Affiliates from their respective operations,
or restrict third parties in the exercise of their rights under existing
sublicenses, solely in such portion of the expanded Restricted Field as was not
included within the Restricted Field as of the Effective Date.

                  3.8. Lease Equipment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, neither Textron nor any of its Affiliates shall be in breach of any
provision of this Agreement on account of Textron's or its Affiliate's (i) Use,
solely outside the Automotive Products Field, or (ii) lease, license, sale or
other transfer to any third party (in each case, whether or not in the
Automotive Products Field or the Restricted Field) of all or any part of
Textron's or its Affiliate's right, title or interest in or to any Equipment (as
defined in any lease contemplated by the Equipment Lease Term Sheet), provided
that the leases contemplated by the Equipment Lease Term Sheet are terminated or
otherwise cease to be in effect for any reason and Textron or any of its
Affiliates continue to own any interest in the Equipment. In addition, solely in
the event that such leases are terminated due to a Default (as such term is
defined in any such lease) by C&A Products or a Subsidiary of C&A Products,
Textron and its Affiliates shall be entitled to Use the Equipment within the
Automotive Products Field.

In the event that Textron declines to prosecute or maintain any such patents in
one or more C&A Products Requested Jurisdictions, or fails to provide C&A
Products with written notice of its intent to prosecute or maintain such patents
within fifteen (15) days of receiving such request, C&A Products may itself
elect to prosecute and maintain such patents in any or all such jurisdictions,
in Textron's name and at C&A Products' cost, by providing Textron with written
notice of such election within thirty (30) days of the date of C&A Products'
original request to Textron. Any such election shall not affect Textron's
ownership of and rights to Use any Retained IP under this Agreement.

by any third party.

                  (b) Suits Against Third Party Infringers. Textron shall have
the exclusive right to institute and prosecute, at its sole expense, lawsuits
against all third parties that infringe, or appear to infringe, the Retained IP.
C&A Products shall reasonably cooperate with Textron in all such suits and
actions, at Textron's expense. Textron shall be entitled to retain any and all
damages that may be received, collected or recovered in any such suit or action,

Textron shall cooperate to diligently defend against any third party
infringement claims, demands or actions involving the Retained IP (each, an
"Infringement Claim"). As between the parties, the party whose Use of the
Retained IP is the subject of the Infringement Claim (the "Defending Party")
shall defend such Infringement Claim at its own expense. Any settlement or
compromise concerning any such Infringement Claim shall be subject to the
approval of the non-Defending Party, which approval shall not be withheld
unreasonably.

BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE.

ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT, NO
PARTY MAKES ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS,
IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, AND HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL REPRESENTATIONS AND
