3.  

	
Document Delivery; License-Back; Consideration and Reports

 

	
3.1  

	
Document Delivery.  As of the Effective Date, Seller shall send to Purchaser, via Federal Express or other reliable overnight delivery service or by hand delivery, the originals of the patent prosecution files and all other documents, communications and files (electronic or otherwise) relating to the Assigned Patent Rights in possession or control of Seller and its agents, counsel and related parties that pertain to the ownership, prosecution, maintenance and enforcement of the Patents, including, but not limited to those documents listed on the Document Request Form attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 (collectively, the “Documents”) and, in addition, will sign the declaration attached to the Document Request Form as Attachment 1 or, alternatively, the declaration attached to the Document Request Form as Attachment 2.

 

	
3.2  

	
Exclusivity. In consideration of the Purchaser’s due diligence investigation of the Patents, the Seller agrees that, during the period between the Effective Date and the Closing Date (as defined below), Seller shall not discuss, negotiate or pursue with any third parties any offers or proposals with respect to or otherwise relating to any of the Patents.

 

	
3.3  

	
License-Back.  Subject to the Closing (as defined below), Purchaser shall grant to Seller a license-back to the Patents, pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 3.3 (the “License Agreement”).

 

	
3.4  

	
Additional Consideration for the Patents. In consideration for the Patents and subject to the consummation of the Closing, Seller shall be entitled, in addition to the other consideration to which Seller is entitled herein, to the following:

 

3.4.1           Cash Payment. A non-refundable cash payment of Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($500,000) payable upon Closing (the “Closing Payment”).

 

3.4.2           Possible Future Cash Payment.  Within thirty (30) calendar days after each calendar quarter (commencing with the calendar quarter ending December 31, 2013) until the expiration of the last to expire of the Patents, Purchaser will pay to Seller a portion (each a “Gross Payment”) of the Cash compensation received by Purchaser in consideration for the licensing and/or enforcement by Purchaser of the Patents, in the form of Cash licensing fees and Cash litigation and settlement fees actually collected and retained by Purchaser; provided that such Cash licensing fees and Cash litigation and settlement fees arise solely from payments made by a third party exclusively in respect of the Patents and excluding any amounts collected by Purchaser with respect to any other patents or intellectual property (“Recoveries”), calculated as follows: (i) if the Cash licensing fees or Cash litigation and settlement fees only include the Patents, ten percent (10%) of all Recoveries actually received and collected by Purchaser and (ii) if the Cash licensing fees or Cash litigation and settlement fees include patents and patent applications other than the Patents, an amount equal to the product of (A) (1) the Recoveries times ten percent (10 %) and (B) a fraction, the (1) numerator of which shall be the number of Patents for which the Cash licensing fees or Cash litigation and settlement fees are payable as part of the specific settlement and (2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of patents and patent applications (including the Patents) for which the Cash licensing fees or Cash litigation and settlement fees are payable as part of the specific settlement.

 

By way of example, if a licensee took a license to the Patents and no other patents or patent applications owned by Purchaser with payment being made in Cash, there would be a payment made under this Section 3.4.2 as follows:

 

R x ten percent (10%), where R = Recoveries

  

-2-

  

Further by way of example, if a licensee took a license to the Patents and other patents or patent applications owned by Purchaser with payment(s) being made in Cash, there would be only a pro rata share payment made under this Section 3.4.2 as follows:

[R x ten percent (10%)] x [P/pp(P)], where R = Recoveries, P = total number of Patents for which the Cash licensing fees or Cash litigation and settlement fees are payable as part of the specific settlement and pp(P) = total number of patents and patent applications (including the Patents) for which the Cash licensing fees or Cash litigation and settlement fees are payable as part of the specific settlement.

For the purposes hereof,

“Cash” shall mean cash and Cash Equivalents.

“Cash Equivalents” shall mean debt and/or equity securities (including, but not limited to stocks, warrants, options or ADRs) and/or any real or personal property, received by Purchaser, that is reducible to cash (net of taxes required to be paid by Purchaser on Seller’s portion in order to take possession of the same) but only at such time as such debt securities, equity securities, real or personal property have been converted to cash.  Purchaser shall convert Cash Equivalents to cash as soon as commercially practical and legally permissible.

Notwithstanding the above, Purchaser shall not enter into a licensing agreement and/or a settlement with any third party that includes a grant of rights under the Patents together with a grant of rights under patents or patent applications other than the Patents, unless Purchaser and Seller agree in advance of the execution of such license agreement and/or settlement on the amount of Recoveries thereunder that will be attributable to the Patents. Any Cash consideration derived from such license and/or settlement will be apportioned accordingly. 

Seller acknowledges that (i) the obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement are contractual only and do not create any fiduciary or other relationship between them; (ii) any Recoveries may be subject to and may be dependent on the provision of licenses, releases and covenants not to sue with respect to the Patents, and enforcement action, all as solely determined by Purchaser; and (iii) Purchaser has not represented that it will be successful in its efforts to monetize the Patents and, accordingly, makes no representation as to the value, if any, of the possible Recoveries under this Section 3.4.2. 

 

	
3.5  

	
Payment Procedures. All payments made by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement shall be made by wire transfer to an account specified by Seller at such times and in accordance with the provisions of Sections 3.4 (and until another account is designated in writing to Purchaser by Seller, to the account identified in Exhibit 3.5).

 

	
3.6  

	
Reports. Simultaneous with any wire transfer pursuant to Section 3.5, Purchaser will include a report detailing the payment amount and will provide such supporting documentation as may reasonably be requested by Seller (subject to appropriate and customary confidentiality obligations as may be required in order to disclose such documentation to Seller).

 

	
4.  

	
Transfer of Patents and Additional Rights

 

	
4.1  

	
Assignment of Patents.  Seller hereby sells, assigns, transfers and conveys to Purchaser all right, title and interest in and to the Assigned Patent Rights and at Closing will provide Purchaser with the Executed Assignment for the Assigned Patent Rights.

 

  

-3-

  

	
4.2  

	
Additional Patents. Seller hereby represents and warrants to Purchaser that the only patents, reissues, reexaminations, extensions, continuations, continuations in part, continuing prosecution applications, provisionals and divisions of the Patents and patents and patent applications that claim priority to any of the foregoing are listed on Exhibit A, including any foreign counterparts thereof. In the event that Purchaser discovers, at any time, any patents, reissues, reexaminations, extensions, continuations, continuations in part, continuing prosecution applications, provisionals and/or divisions of the Patents or patents and patent applications that claim priority to any of the foregoing, or any foreign counterparts thereof that are owned by Seller (the “Additional Patents”), then the Additional Patents shall be sold, including by transferring, assigning and setting over, to Purchaser, all right, title and interest thereto, for no consideration beyond the consideration provided for in this Agreement, and the Additional Patents shall be deemed “Patents”, as applicable, under this Agreement, for all intents and purposes. In such event, the Parties shall sign an amended Exhibit A to add the Additional Patents thereto and in the event that Purchaser’s notification to Seller is subsequent to the Closing, then the Parties shall conduct a subsequent closing and the provisions of Section 5.1 shall apply to the sale, assignment transfer and setting over to Purchaser of the Additional Patents, mutatis mutandis.

 

	
4.3  

	
Non-Assumption of Liabilities. It is expressly understood and agreed that Purchaser shall not be liable for and hereby disclaims any assumption of any of the obligations, claims or liabilities of Seller and/or its Affiliates and/or of any third party of any kind or nature whatsoever arising from or in connection with any circumstances, causes of action, breach, violation, default or failure to perform with respect to the Assigned Patent Rights prior to the assignment and sale thereof to Purchaser.

 

	
5.

5.1  

	
The closing of the purchase and sale of the Assigned Patent Rights (the “Closing”) shall take place on or before September 30, 2013 (the “Closing Date”),  subject to the conditions to Closing set forth in Section 5.1.2, 5.2 and 5.3 below having been previously and/or simultaneously met.

9.  

	
Term of Agreement

 

Unless otherwise terminated by operation of law or by acts of the Parties in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement shall be in force from the Effective Date and shall remain in effect until the earlier of (i) the expiration of the last-to-expire of the Licensed Patents or (ii) by Licensor delivering written notice of termination to Licensee at any time upon or after the filing by Licensee of a petition in bankruptcy or insolvency, or upon or after any adjudication that Licensee is bankrupt or insolvent, or upon or after the filing by Licensee of any petition or answer seeking judicial reorganization, readjustment or arrangement of the business of Licensee under any law relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, or upon or after the appointment of a receiver for all or substantially all of the property of Licensee, which is not removed or stayed within sixty (60) days thereafter, or upon or after the making of any assignment or attempted assignment for the benefit of creditors, or upon or after the institution of any proceeding or passage of any resolution for the liquidation or winding up of Licensee’s business which is not removed or stayed within sixty (60) days thereafter.

In such event, the Parties shall sign an amended Exhibit A to add the Additional Patents thereto and in the event that Purchaser’s notification to Seller is subsequent to the Closing, then the Parties shall conduct a subsequent closing and the provisions of Section 5.1 shall apply to the sale, assignment transfer and setting over to Purchaser of the Additional Patents, mutatis mutandis.

 

	
4.3  

	
Non-Assumption of Liabilities. It is expressly understood and agreed that Purchaser shall not be liable for and hereby disclaims any assumption of any of the obligations, claims or liabilities of Seller and/or its Affiliates and/or of any third party of any kind or nature whatsoever arising from or in connection with any circumstances, causes of action, breach, violation, default or failure to perform with respect to the Assigned Patent Rights prior to the assignment and sale thereof to Purchaser.

8.1  

	
License Back to Seller under Patents.  Upon the Closing, Purchaser grants to Seller, its Affiliates and customers of Seller and Seller’s Affiliates (but with respect to such customers, only in their capacity as such), a royalty-free, fully paid up, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, irrevocable, non-transferable (other than to the extent set forth herein) right and license under the Patents, and for the lives thereof ("Seller License") to practice the methods under and to make, have made, use, distribute, lease, sell, offer for sale, import, export, develop and otherwise dispose of and exploit any products and services designed, made, sold, offered for sale, imported or distributed by or on behalf of Seller and/or its Affiliates covered by the Patents (the “Covered Products”).  The Seller License shall apply to the reproduction and subsequent distribution of Covered Products under Seller's or any of its Affiliates' trademarks and brands, in substantially identical form as they are distributed by Seller and any of its Affiliates, by authorized agents of Seller and its Affiliates such as a distributor, replicator, value added reseller or OEM.  The Seller License, as to any Affiliate of Seller, will terminate as to such Affiliate if and when such Affiliate ceases to meet the requirements of being an Affiliate of Seller, except as provided in Section 8.2.  The Seller License does not allow the Seller (which will include each of its Affiliates) to become a foundry for any third person or otherwise act with the intent to provide any person the benefit of its rights under the Seller License. The Seller License will terminate for an entity that has or receives the Seller License (e.g., Seller, a Seller Affiliate, a customer, a Permitted Transferee, etc.) if and at such time as such entity asserts any claim related to the Assigned Patent Rights (except in response to an assertion of the Patent), including, but not limited to a declaratory judgment, against Purchaser or its Affiliates, or if and at such time as such entity violates a material term of the Seller License.  Termination of the Seller License for said entity shall not cause termination of the Seller License for any other entities (Seller, Seller Affiliates, customer, Permitted Transferee).

 

	
8.2  

	
Limitation on Transferability of Seller License.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Seller License may be transferred by Seller and by each Seller Affiliate to a transferee that is either (a) the purchaser of all or substantially all of the operating assets (other than cash) of Seller or such  Seller Affiliate, or (b) the successor of Seller or such Seller Affiliate in connection with a merger involving the sale of all, or substantially all, of the outstanding capital stock of Seller or the relevant Affiliate (the transferee in (a) and (b) a "Permitted Transferee" and the transaction described in (a) or (b), an “M&A Event”); provided that: (i) the Permitted Transferee is not a party to a patent assertion claim or infringement action or suit involving one or more of the Patents prior to the M&A Event, (ii) the Seller License transferred in the M&A Event will apply strictly to the Covered Products that had been commercially released by Seller or the applicable Seller Affiliate prior to the effective date of the M&A Event, and (iii) the Covered Products will not include, and in no event will the Seller License extend to, any other products, processes or services of (x) the Permitted Transferee, (y) any affiliate (other than Seller) of such Permitted Transferee, or (z) any other Person.

 

	
8.3  

	
Any transfer of the Assigned Patent Rights by Purchaser, including any transfer between Purchaser’s Affiliates, if any, shall be subject to the Seller License and any such transferee shall be notified in writing about the Seller License.  Subject to compliance by Seller and its Affiliates with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Seller License, for as long as this Agreement or the Seller License is in effect, Purchaser shall not assert any Assigned Patent Rights against Seller or Seller Affiliates and customers of Seller and Seller Affiliates with respect to Covered Products (but with respect to such customers, only in their capacity as such) and any and all sales and transfers of the Patents shall be subject to the foregoing undertaking towards Seller and its Affiliates.  Purchaser shall obligate any and all subsequent owners, any entity controlling any of the Patents and exclusive licensees of the Patents to be bound by the Seller License and the provisions of this Section 8.3.

9.2  

	
Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by Seller without the prior written consent of Purchaser.  Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Purchaser may assign its rights and obligations hereunder upon the provision of written notice to Seller.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may communicate to the customers, vendors, developers, distributors, suppliers, agents, resellers, replicators, and OEM of Seller and its Affiliates, that Seller and its Affiliates are licensed under the Seller License; provided that such communication (y) is limited to the existence of the Seller License and does not include the terms thereof and (z) is subject to obligations of confidentiality at least as stringent as those contained herein.

Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Seller may disclose the terms of the Seller License in Section 8.1 to the Seller’s Affiliates under confidentiality provisions similar to those herein.

Re:  Consulting Services for Patents

Dear Sir/Madam:

I am pleased to confirm my engagement by Shaked & Co. Law Offices (the “Firm”) in its capacity for one or more of its clients (the “Company”) to provide certain consulting services (“the Matter”) related to the patents listed on Annex A attached hereto (“the Patent(s)”). I understand the identity of the Company, and its interest in the Patent(s), are both highly confidential.

My  Services

I understand that you may intend my work, opinions, conclusions and communications to be covered by the attorney-client and work product privileges to the extent provided by law, and I will comply with any requests you make of me that are designed to preserve these privileges.  Even in the absence of a specific request, I will take reasonable measures to maintain information relating to the Matter (including this letter) in confidence.  Further, if I am contacted by anyone other than the Firm seeking release of such information, I will immediately notify you and cooperate with your instructions.  In addition, I understand that you will provide me with instructions regarding any document retention or document production procedures you expect me to follow.  I also understand that this agreement will transfer to subsequent counsel in the event that the Firm’s relationship with the Company terminates. I will execute any necessary agreement required to affect such transfer.

 

I will perform those services or tasks you request which are within my scope or practice relating to the Patent(s), in accordance with this letter agreement.

At your reasonable request, I agree to execute and deliver such other instruments and do and perform such other acts and things as may be necessary or desirable, including without limitation executing an oath or declaration as may be required by law, in connection with any pending or future filed divisions, continuations, reissues, reexaminations, or other applications or counterparts in connection with the Patents (“Future Cooperation”).

 

Fees and Expenses

My billing rate is $100.00 per hour. Prior to commencing any work hereunder, I will prepare a budget for such work, which will be subject to your prior approval. Subject to our agreement on the budget, I will bill on an hourly basis based on the actual hours worked.  I will bill you on a monthly basis.  My invoices will contain detailed descriptions of the work completed. In addition and subject to your prior approval, out of pocket expenses (including transportation, lodging, meals, communications, supplies, copying, etc.) will be billed at the actual amounts incurred by me and as against presentation of valid receipts therefor.

  

-26-

  

General Business Terms

All right, title and interest in any deliverables I provide to you, including any work papers, reports or other documents I prepared in the course of this engagement, will become your sole and exclusive property.  I will retain sole and exclusive ownership of all right, title and interest in my work papers, proprietary information, processes, methodologies, know how and software, provided the same existed prior to the commencement of my engagement hereunder and, to the extent the same is of general application, anything which I may discover, create or develop during my provision of services but unrelated to this engagement. To the extent my reports or other documents delivered to you contain my property, I grant you a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use it in connection with the subject of the engagement. I will fully cooperate with you in order to sign, execute, make and do all such deeds, documents, acts and things as may be required to vest any such ownership rights in your name.

With respect to any information supplied in connection with this engagement and designated by either of us as confidential, or which the other should reasonably believe is confidential based on the subject matter or the circumstances of its disclosure, the other party agrees to protect the confidential information in a reasonable and appropriate manner, and use confidential information only to perform its obligations under this engagement and for no other purpose.

Within 30 days after the conclusion of this engagement, you may request that I (a) return to you all documents or copies of documents that you provided to me as well as work papers, reports or other documents I prepared in the course of this engagement or (b) destroy such materials, as certified to you.  If you do not timely request one of these options for disposition of materials, I may elect either option.  I will have the right to retain a copy of my reports or work papers for internal use, subject to the confidentiality and non-use provisions set forth above.

This engagement letter constitutes the entire understanding and agreement between us with respect to the services described above, supersedes all prior oral and written communications between us, and may be amended, modified or changed only in writing when signed by both parties.

  

-27-

  

*    *    *    *    *    *

Please indicate your agreement to these terms by signing and returning to me the enclosed copy of this letter.  I appreciate the opportunity to be of service to you and look forward to working with you on this project.

Sincerely,
