The Design For Testability (DFT) Technology consists of the tool suite and
database provided to Licensee in source code form as described herein:

               (i)    SCANCHEK, Version 5 Release 3 (5.03) *See Note 2
                      This tool compiles a circuit description from Verilog
                      structural netlists and checks the logic for compliance to
                      a set of scan rules. It also extracts the combinational
                      logic driven by the scan chain as well as a description of
                      the scan chain connections and pin types.

               (ii)   ATPG, Version 5 Release 3 (5.03) *See Note 2
                      Automatic Test Pattern Generator (ATPG) generates and/or
                      evaluates a set of test vectors for the faults in the
                      combinational part of the logic of a circuit. ATPG applies
                      random patterns to detect most faults and switches to
                      deterministic algorithms to find the remaining one.
                      Optionally, a Linear-Feedback-Shift-Register (LFSR) can
                      generate the random patterns and the expected responses
                      for the circuit are compressed and expressed in terms of a
                      32-bit signature.

               (iii)  SEQUENCE, Version 5 Release 3 (5.03) *See Note 2
                      SEQUENCE populates a test pattern database with the test
                      patterns generated by ATPG for the combinational portion
                      of the circuit. SEQUENCE automatically adds generic test
                      patterns for the scan chain itself and asynchronous set /
                      reset pins, if applicable.

               (iv)   TPI, Version 5 Release 2 Maintenance Release 1 (5.02.01)
                      Test Point Insertion (TPI) tool.

               (v)    RamBist, Version 5 Release 2 (5.02)
                      A tool that generates a memory built-in self test
                      controller, a verification test bench, and test pattern.

               (vi)   ScanBist, Version 5 (5.00)
                      A tool that generate a scan built-in self test (a.k.a.
                      logicbist) controller, a verification test bench, and test
                      pattern.

               (vii)  IATPG, Version 5 (5.00)
                      A tool to perform Interconnect Automatic Test Pattern
                      Generator (IATPG)

               (viii) dh2wgl
                      A tool to extract test patterns from datahub native format
