 Exhibit 10.2 
 INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT 
 INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of the 29th day of March, 2010 by and between Northwest Pipe Company, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Oregon (the “Company”), and Richard A. Roman (“Indemnitee”).

 WHEREAS, the Company desires to attract and retain the services of highly qualified individuals, such as Indemnitee,
to serve the Company; 
 WHEREAS, in order to induce Indemnitee to provide services to the Company, the Company wishes to
provide for the indemnification of, and advancement of expenses to, Indemnitee to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of Oregon; 
 WHEREAS, in view of the considerations set forth above, the Company desires that Indemnitee shall be indemnified by the Company as set forth herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the Company and Indemnitee hereby agree as set forth below. 
 1. Certain Definitions. 
 “Board” shall mean the Board of Directors of the
Company. 
 “Expenses” shall mean any expense, liability, or loss, including reasonable attorneys’ fees,
judgments, fines, excise taxes and penalties, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement, any interest, assessments, or other charges imposed thereon, any national, provincial, local, or foreign taxes imposed as a result of the actual or deemed
receipt of any payments under this Agreement, and all other costs and obligations, paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in, participating in (including on appeal), or preparing for any of the foregoing in any
Proceeding relating to any Indemnifiable Event. 
 “Indemnifiable Event” shall mean any event or occurrence
that takes place either prior to or after the execution of this Agreement, related to the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director or officer of the Company, or while a director or officer is or was serving at the request of the Company as a
director, officer, employee, trustee, agent, or fiduciary of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust, or other enterprise, or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of a foreign or
domestic corporation that was a predecessor corporation of the Company or of another enterprise at the request of such predecessor corporation, or related to anything done or not done by Indemnitee in any such capacity, whether or not the basis of
the Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee, or agent or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee, or agent of the Company, as described above. 
 “Proceeding” shall mean any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding (including an action by or in the
right of the Company), or any inquiry, hearing, or investigation, whether conducted by the Company or any other party that Indemnitee in good faith believes might lead to the institution of any such action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative, investigative, or other. 
  

 1 – INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (Richard A. Roman) 

 “Reviewing Party” shall mean any appropriate person or body consisting of a
member or members of the Board or any other person or body appointed by the Board who is not a party to the particular Proceeding with respect to which Indemnitee is seeking indemnification. 
 2. Agreement to Indemnify. 
 (a) General Agreement. In the event Indemnitee was, is, or becomes a party to, or witness or other participant in, or is threatened to be made a party to, or witness or other participant in, a
Proceeding by reason of (or arising in part out of) an Indemnifiable Event, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee from and against any and all Expenses to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of Oregon, as the same exists or may hereafter be
amended or interpreted (but in the case of any such amendment or interpretation, only to the extent that such amendment or interpretation permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than were permitted prior thereto). 

(b) Initiation of Proceeding. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Indemnitee shall not be entitled to
indemnification pursuant to this Agreement in connection with any Proceeding initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or any director or officer of the Company unless (i) the Company has joined in or the Board has consented to the initiation
of such Proceeding; or (ii) the Proceeding is one to enforce indemnification rights under Section 4. 
 (c) Expense
Advances. If so requested by Indemnitee, the Company shall advance (within ten (10) business days of such request) any and all Expenses to Indemnitee (an “Expense Advance”); provided that Indemnitee first furnishes the Company
with: (i) a written affirmation of Indemnitee’s good faith belief that Indemnitee has met the standard of conduct described in the Oregon Business Corporation Act or is entitled to be indemnified by the Company under any other
indemnification rights granted by the Company to such Indemnitee; and (ii) a written undertaking to repay such advance to the extent it is ultimately determined by a court that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company under
the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or under any other indemnification rights granted by the Company to such person. If Indemnitee has commenced or commences legal proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction to secure a determination
that Indemnitee should be indemnified under applicable law, as provided in Section 3, any determination made by the Reviewing Party that Indemnitee would not be permitted to be indemnified under applicable law shall not be binding, and
Indemnitee shall not be required to reimburse the Company for any Expense Advance until a final judicial determination is made with respect thereto (as to which all rights of appeal therefrom have been exhausted or have lapsed). Indemnitee’s
obligation to reimburse the Company for Expense Advances shall be unsecured and no interest shall be charged thereon. 
 (d)
Mandatory Indemnification. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Proceeding relating in whole or in part to an Indemnifiable Event
or in defense of any issue or matter therein, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses incurred in connection therewith. 
  

 2 – INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (Richard A. Roman) 

 (e) Partial Indemnification. If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this
Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of Expenses, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled. 

3. Indemnification Process and Appeal. 
 (a) Indemnification Payment. Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification of Expenses, and shall receive payment thereof, from the Company in accordance with this Agreement as soon as
practicable after Indemnitee has made written demand on the Company for indemnification, unless the Reviewing Party has given a written opinion to the Company that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under applicable law. 
 (b) Suit to Enforce Rights. Regardless of any action by the Reviewing Party, if Indemnitee has not received full indemnification
within thirty (30) days after making a demand in accordance with Section 3(a), Indemnitee shall have the right to enforce its indemnification rights under this Agreement by commencing litigation in any court of competent jurisdiction in
Oregon seeking an initial determination by the court or challenging any determination by the Reviewing Party or any aspect thereof. The Company hereby consents to service of process and to appear in any such proceeding. Any determination by the
Reviewing Party not challenged by the Indemnitee shall be binding on the Company and Indemnitee. The remedy provided for in this Section 3 shall be in addition to any other remedies available to Indemnitee at law or in equity. 
 (c) Defense to Indemnification, Burden of Proof, and Presumptions. It shall be a defense to any action brought by Indemnitee against
the Company to enforce this Agreement (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for Expenses incurred in defending a Proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking has been tendered to the Company) that it is
not permissible under applicable law for the Company to indemnify Indemnitee for the amount claimed. In connection with any such action or any determination by the Reviewing Party or otherwise as to whether Indemnitee is entitled to be indemnified
hereunder, the burden of proving such a defense or determination shall be on the Company. Neither the failure of the Reviewing Party or the Company (including its Board) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action by
Indemnitee that indemnification of the claimant is proper under the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the standard of conduct set forth in applicable law, nor an actual determination by the Reviewing Party or the Company (including its Board)
that Indemnitee had not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct. For purposes of this Agreement, the termination of any claim,
action, suit, or proceeding, by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without court approval), conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere, or its equivalent, shall not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any particular
standard of conduct or have any particular belief or that a court has determined that indemnification is not permitted by applicable law. 
  

 3 – INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (Richard A. Roman) 

 4. Indemnification for Expenses Incurred in Enforcing Rights. The
Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses that are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action brought by Indemnitee for indemnification or advance payment of Expenses by the Company under this Agreement or any other
agreement or under applicable law or the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws now or hereafter in effect relating to indemnification for Indemnifiable Events. 
 5. Notification and Defense of Proceeding. 
 (a) Notice. Promptly after receipt by Indemnitee of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding, Indemnitee shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Company under this
Agreement, notify the Company of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability that it may have to Indemnitee, except as provided in Section 5(c). 
 (b) Defense. With respect to any Proceeding as to which Indemnitee notifies the Company of the commencement thereof, the Company will
be entitled to participate in the Proceeding at its own expense and except as otherwise provided below, to the extent the Company so wishes, it may assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee. After notice from the
Company to Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of any Proceeding, the Company shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement, or otherwise, for any Expenses subsequently incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the defense of
such Proceeding other than reasonable costs of investigation or as otherwise provided below. Indemnitee shall have the right to employ legal counsel in such Proceeding, but all Expenses related thereto incurred after notice from the Company of its
assumption of the defense shall be at Indemnitee’s sole expense unless: (i) the employment of legal counsel by Indemnitee has been authorized by the Company, (ii) counsel for Indemnitee has reasonably determined that there may be a
conflict of interest between Indemnitee and the Company in the defense of the Proceeding, or (iii) the Company shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such Proceeding within thirty (30) days, in each of which cases
all Expenses of the Proceeding shall be borne by the Company. The Company shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Proceeding brought by or on behalf of the Company or as to which Indemnitee shall have made the determination provided for
in (ii) and (iii) above. 
 (c) Settlement of Claims. The Company shall not be liable to indemnify Indemnitee
under this Agreement or otherwise for any amounts paid in settlement of any Proceeding effected without the Company’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Company shall not settle any Proceeding in
any manner that would impose any penalty or limitation on Indemnitee without Indemnitee’s prior written consent. The Company shall not be liable to indemnify Indemnitee under this Agreement with regard to any judicial award if the Company was
not given a reasonable and timely opportunity, at its expense, to participate in the defense of such action; the Company’s liability hereunder shall not be excused if participation in the Proceeding by the Company was barred by this Agreement
as provided in Section 5(b) hereof. 
 6. Non-Exclusivity. The rights of Indemnitee hereunder shall be in
addition to any other rights Indemnitee may have under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, applicable law, or otherwise; provided, however, that this Agreement shall supersede any prior indemnification agreement between the
Company and Indemnitee. To the extent that a change in

  

 4 – INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (Richard A. Roman) 

 
applicable law (whether by statute or judicial decision) permits greater indemnification than would be afforded currently under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, applicable
law, or this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties that Indemnitee enjoy, by this Agreement, the greater benefits so afforded by such change. 
 7. Liability Insurance. To the extent the Company obtains an insurance policy or policies providing general and/or directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, Indemnitee shall be
covered by such policy or policies, in accordance with its or their terms, to the maximum extent of the coverage provided for any Company director or officer. 
 8. Amendment of this Agreement. No supplement, modification, or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both of the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the
provisions of this Agreement shall be binding unless in the form of a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the waiver is sought, and no such waiver shall operate as a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar),
nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver. Except as specifically provided herein, no failure to exercise or any delay in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall constitute a waiver thereof. 
 9. Subrogation. In the event of payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to
all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and shall do everything that may be necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents necessary to enable the Company effectively to bring
suit to enforce such rights. 
 10. No Duplication of Payments. The Company shall not be liable under this
Agreement to make any payment in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee to the extent Indemnitee has otherwise received payment (under any insurance policy, Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws or otherwise) of the amounts otherwise
indemnifiable hereunder. 
 11. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of,
and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company),
assigns, spouses, heirs, and personal and legal representatives. The Company shall require and cause any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all, substantially all, or a substantial part, of the
business and/or assets of the Company, by written agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Indemnitee, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to
perform if no such succession had taken place. The indemnification provided under this Agreement shall continue as to Indemnitee for any action taken or not taken while serving in an indemnified capacity pertaining to an Indemnifiable Event even
though he or she may have ceased to serve in such capacity at the time of any Proceeding. 
 12. Governing Law.
This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of Oregon.

rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner
adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the

 7 – INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (Richard A. Roman)Separation and Release Agreement

 Exhibit 10.1 
 April 1, 2010 
 Mr. Craig Garen 
  

	 	Re:	Separation and Release Agreement 

 Dear Craig:

 This letter is to confirm our agreement with respect to the termination of your employment with Ikanos Communications, Inc.
(“Ikanos” or the “Company”). To ensure that there are no ambiguities, this letter first explains in detail both your rights and obligations and those of Ikanos upon termination of your employment. If, in exchange
for a release, you wish to accept additional benefits to which you would otherwise not be entitled, indicate your agreement by signing, dating and returning the enclosed Release Agreement to the undersigned by April 22, 2010. 
 1. Separation from Employment. 
 We have agreed that your employment with Ikanos will end effective April 1, 2010 (“Effective Date”). Thereafter, you will no longer be an employee of Ikanos. You will be paid all earned and
unpaid salary together with your accrued and unused PTO of $21,164.00 accrued while an employee of Conexant Systems, Inc., less deductions required or permitted by law in your final paycheck on April 2, 2010. Nothing herein alters your status
as an at-will employee. 
 Your coverage under the Ikanos group plans will end on April 30, 2010. However, you will have
the opportunity to exercise your option to continue the benefits under the Ikanos group health plans under COBRA after that date. You will be provided a benefits packet containing information on your COBRA rights and conversion to a direct pay plan.
Please call Ikanos’ Human Resources Administrator if you have any questions about COBRA conversion. Additionally, please keep Human Resources informed of any address changes in case we need to mail you future W-2’s and other
correspondences to your attention. 
 The Company will reimburse you for any un-reimbursed business expenses permitted under the
Company’s expense reimbursement policies incurred by you on or before the Effective Date,provided that you present all expense reports to the Company in accordance with such policies within thirty (30) days of your last day as an employee.

 The Company will continue to indemnify you for any claims asserted against you based upon acts you have taken during your
tenure as an officer of Ikanos to the extent permitted under Delaware law, and so long as such acts did not involve intentionally wrongful conduct, or were not known by you to be criminal acts at the time you engaged in such acts. 
 In addition, please note that your obligations under any proprietary and inventions assignment agreement will still remain in effect.

 2. Release Agreement. 
 In addition to the foregoing to which you are entitled, Ikanos is prepared to offer you additional benefits to which you would otherwise not be entitled in exchange for an agreement to release all claims
known or unknown. If you wish to accept such additional benefits in consideration for the release, your signature below will reflect your agreement. You may take 21 days from receipt of this letter (i.e., until April 22, 2010) to
consider whether you wish to accept these additional benefits in exchange for the release. Please also note that even if you do sign this Release Agreement, you may change your mind and revoke it and forego the additional benefits, provided you
notify the undersigned in writing within seven (7) days of your signing that you no longer want the additional benefits. 
 A. Consideration. 
 Provided that you remain an employee of Ikanos through April 2, 2010, that you have
signed this Release Agreement and returned it to Ikanos, then ten (10) days after your signature of an unrevoked Release Agreement, consistent with the severance terms in your offer letter, Ikanos will provide you with the consideration
described and on the schedule below: 
 (1) Ikanos will make a severance payment of $345,600.00, less applicable withholdings,
in equal installments over the nine-month period following your last day on each regular payroll date, in consideration of your acceptance of this Release Agreement. 
 (2) The vesting of options to purchase 150,000 shares, or twenty-five percent (25%), of your unvested options to purchase Ikanos Common Stock, will accelerate and such equity will become vested on
April 1, 2010. You will have until July 1, 2010 (ninety days), to decide whether to exercise your vested but as yet unexercised stock options. To the extent that such equity

 
includes incentive stock option grants, the change to the vesting schedule may impact the tax treatment of those incentive stock options. You should consult a tax advisor with any questions you
have regarding this possible change in tax treatment. In all other aspects, all of your stock options and restricted stock units related to the Company’s common stock will remain subject to the terms of the 2004 Equity Incentive
Plan and the applicable award agreement or Notice of Grant, as applicable. 
 (3) In addition, Ikanos will continue to pay
the cost for group employee benefit coverage continuation under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”) to the same extent previously provided by Ikanos’ group plans through January 31, 2011, or until
you become eligible for group insurance benefits from another employer, whichever occurs first. You understand that you have an obligation to inform Ikanos if you receive group health coverage from another employer before January 31, 2011, and
that you may not increase the number of your designated dependants if any, during this time unless you do so at you own expense. The period of such Ikanos-paid COBRA coverage shall be considered part of your COBRA coverage entitlement period, and
may, for tax purposes, be considered income to you. 
 (4) Ikanos will allow you to keep your Company-purchased laptop computer
and monitor. The Company will remove all company-specific data from your laptop computer before you take it home. You will cooperate with the Ikanos IT staff in insuring that all company-specific data is removed from the computer. 
 You understand that because Ikanos has no policy obligating it to pay additional severance to terminated employees, these benefits are an
additional benefit for which you are not eligible unless you elect to sign this Release Agreement. 
 B. Release.

 Released Claims. 
 In consideration of these additional benefits, you, on behalf of your heirs, spouse and assigns, hereby completely release and forever discharge Ikanos, its past and present affiliates, agents, officers, directors, shareholders, employees,
attorneys, insurers, successors and assigns (collectively referred to as the “Company”) from any and all claims, of any and every kind, nature and character, known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, based on any act or omission
occurring prior to the date of you signing this Release Agreement, including but not limited to any claims arising out of your offer of employment, your employment or termination of your employment with the Company or your right to purchase, or
actual purchase of shares of stock of the Company (including, but not limited to, all rights related to or associated with stock options and restricted stock units), including, without limitation, any claims for fraud, misrepresentation, breach of
fiduciary duty, breach of duty under applicable state corporate law, and securities fraud under any state or federal law. The matters released include, but are not limited to, any claims under federal, state or local laws, including claims arising
under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (“ADEA”) as amended by, including but not limited to, the Older Workers’ Benefit Protection Act (“OWBPA”) and any common law tort contract or statutory
claims, and any claims for attorneys’ fees and costs. 
 You understand and agree that this Release Agreement extinguishes
all claims, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, except for those claims expressly described below. You expressly waive any rights or benefits under Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, or any equivalent statute. California
Civil Code Section 1542 provides as follows: 
 “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES
NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.” 
 You fully understand that, if any fact with respect to any matter covered by this Release Agreement is found hereafter to be other than or different from the facts now believed by you to be true, you
expressly accept and assume that this Release Agreement shall be and remain effective, notwithstanding such difference in the facts. 
 Claims Not Released. 
 The only claims not released through this Release Agreement are any claims that cannot be
released by law, such as claims for unemployment benefits, workers’ compensation and/or claims relating to the validity of this Release Agreement under the ADEA as amended by the OWBPA. 
 Enforcement of This Release Agreement. 
 You also understand and agree that if any suit is brought to enforce the provisions of this Release Agreement, with the exception of a claim brought by you as to the validity of this Release Agreement
under the ADEA as amended by the OWBPA, the prevailing party shall be entitled to its costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees as well as any and all other remedies specifically authorized under the law. 

 Miscellaneous. 
 You further acknowledge that during your employment, you may have obtained confidential, proprietary and trade secret information, including information relating to the Company’s products, plans,
designs and other valuable confidential information. You agree not to use or disclose any such confidential information unless required by subpoena or court order, and that you will first give the Company written notice of such subpoena or court
order with reasonable advance notice to permit the Company to oppose such subpoena or court order if it chooses to do so. 
 You
also agree that for a period of one year after the termination of your employment, you shall not induce or attempt to induce any employee, agent or consultant of the Company to terminate his or her association with the Company. This restriction
shall not apply to individuals who respond to general job postings that advertise positions at any company where you may work in the future. The Company and you agree that the provisions of this paragraph contain restrictions that are not greater
than necessary to protect the interests of the Company. In the event of the breach or threatened breach by you of this paragraph, the Company, in addition to all other remedies available to it at law or in equity, will be entitled to seek injunctive
relief and/or specific performance to enforce this paragraph. 
 You agree that for a period of one (1) years you will not
intentionally disparage the Company or any of its products or practices whether orally, in writing or otherwise. Excluded from this limitation will be any factually correct statement concerning the Company’s products generally known in the
industry. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this will not limit your ability to provide truthful testimony as required by law or any judicial or administrative proceeding. Likewise, during the same one-year time period the Company will not make any
defamatory or disparaging statements about your reputation, business dealings, performance or character. 
 This Release
Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between yourself and the Company with respect to any matters referred to in this Release Agreement. This Release Agreement supersedes any and all of the other agreements between yourself and the Company,
except for any proprietary and inventions assignment agreement, which remain in full force and effect, and except for those provisions of the 1999 Stock Option Plan and the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and award agreements or Notices of Grant
referenced in Sections 2.A.(2) and (3) above and not superseded by the provisions of such sections. No other consideration, agreements, representations, oral statements, understandings or course of conduct which are not expressly set
forth in this Release Agreement should be implied or are binding. You understand and agree that this Release Agreement shall not be deemed or construed at any time or for any purposes as an admission of any liability or wrongdoing by either yourself
or the Company. You also agree that if any provision of this Release Agreement is deemed invalid, the remaining provisions will still be given full force and effect. The terms and conditions of this Release Agreement will be interpreted and
construed in accordance with the laws of California. 
 Prior to execution of this Release Agreement, you have apprised yourself
of sufficient relevant information in order that you might intelligently exercise your own judgment. The Company has informed you in writing to consult an attorney before signing this Release, if you wish. The Company has also given you at least
21 days in which to consider this Release Agreement, if you wish. You also understand that for a period of seven (7) days after you sign this Release Agreement, you may revoke this Release Agreement, and that the Release Agreement shall not
become effective until seven (7) days from the date of your signature, or on your last day of employment, whichever is later. 
 You have read this Release Agreement and understand all of its terms. You further acknowledge and agree that this Release Agreement is executed voluntarily and with full knowledge of its legal significance.
