No event has occurred, and no circumstance or condition exists, that (with or without notice or lapse of time) will, or could reasonably be expected to, result in the delivery, license or disclosure of the source code for or used in any Acquired Product to any Third Party.

(e) The execution and delivery of this Agreement, compliance with its terms and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement do not and will not conflict with, or result in any violation or breach of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) or give rise to or require the creation, imposition or extension of any Encumbrance relating to any Intellectual Property Assets, or right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any intellectual property right, or the loss of any material benefit related to any Intellectual Property Assets (except as set forth on Schedule 3.10(e)), or otherwise impair Purchaser’s right to use the Intellectual Property Assets in the same manner as such Intellectual Property Assets are currently being used or available for use by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or the licensees of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries.

The Intellectual

Property Assets developed for and provided to Seller or any of its Subsidiaries by the employees and agents of, and the consultants and contractors to, Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, and related to the Acquired Products are original works or works made for hire of those employees, agents, consultants and contractors assigned to or otherwise owned by Seller and its Subsidiaries.

If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver under this Agreement, any party (or any of its Affiliates) is in the written opinion of such party’s counsel compelled to disclose the Confidential Information or else stand liable for contempt or suffer other censure or significant penalty, such party (or its Affiliate) may disclose only so much of the Confidential Information to the Third Party compelling disclosure as is required by law. In such case, such party will exercise (and will cause its Affiliates to exercise their) reasonable efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Confidential Information.

(d) Whether or not the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third-Party Claim or Infringement Claim, both parties to this Agreement shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution of such claim and shall furnish such records, information and testimony, and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals, as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith or as provided in Section 5.1.

(e) The parties’ indemnity obligations under this Agreement shall survive the Closing Date.

(f) For all purposes of this Agreement, any Losses of an Indemnified Party shall be net of (i) any insurance proceeds or other recoveries payable to the Indemnified Party or its affiliates in connection with, or otherwise attributable to, such Losses, and (ii) any Tax benefit realized by such

Indemnified Party or its affiliates arising in connection with the accrual, incurrence or payment of any such Losses (including, without limitation, the value of any Tax benefit arising in subsequent taxable years).

7.3 General Procedures for Indemnification

(a) The Indemnified Party seeking indemnification under this Agreement shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by any Third Party or other matter in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement and will give the Indemnifying Party such information with respect to such claim, action, suit, proceeding or matter as the Indemnified Party has or the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request, but failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability under this Agreement (except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has suffered actual prejudice by such failure). The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnified Party within 30 days of receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the commencement of or assertion of any claim, action, suit or proceeding by a Third Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement (a “Third-Party Claim”), to assume the defense and control the settlement of such Third-Party Claim.

(b) The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall have the right to participate in (but not control), at its own expense, the defense of any Third-Party Claim that the other is defending, as provided in this Agreement.

(c) The Indemnifying Party, if it has assumed the defense of any Third-Party Claim as provided in this Agreement, shall not consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless such settlement or judgment relates solely to monetary damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent, enter into any compromise or settlement that (i) commits the Indemnified Party to take, or to forbear to take, any action or (ii) does not provide for a complete release with respect to such Third-Party Claim by such Third Party of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to settle any Third-Party Claim involving damages for which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense pursuant to this Section 7.3 with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party fails to provide the Indemnified Party written notice that the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of a Third-Party claim or otherwise fails to vigorously prosecute the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim and any Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection therewith shall be promptly paid by the Indemnifying Party.

(e) Notwithstanding anything contained in the Agreement to the contrary, Seller shall assume the defense of any claims or demands with respect to Straddle Period Taxes and any Tax claims made against the Acquired Assets attributable to taxable periods (or portions thereof) commencing prior to the Closing Date (“Tax Claims”). Purchaser shall have the right to participate in the defense of any such Tax Claims at its own expense. Seller shall have the right to settle any Tax Claims, provided that such settlement does not adversely impact the Tax liability of Purchaser with respect to the Acquired Assets for periods (or portions thereof) commencing on or after the Closing Date.

(f) In the event of an intellectual property infringement claim subject to this Section 7.3, Seller and Purchaser will negotiate in good faith an appropriate joint defense agreement, and, pursuant to such agreement, each party shall provide the other with access to any infringement opinions or related documents concerning the subject matter of such claim.

7.4 Right of Set-Off. In order to satisfy any indemnification obligations of Seller pursuant to this Article 7, Purchaser (and each of its directors, officers, employees, representatives and other Affiliates) shall have the right to recover Losses incurred or suffered by Purchaser by setting off the amount of any such Losses on a dollar-for-dollar basis (to the extent not previously recovered by Purchaser) against any unpaid portion of the Purchase Price otherwise due to Seller pursuant to Section 2.7. In the case of Third Party Claims brought but not resolved prior to the date that the Cash Payment, Purchaser will have the right to set-off and withhold the total amount of any reserve or write-off recorded by Purchaser with respect to any Losses, which reserve or write-off has been reviewed and accepted by Purchaser’s firm of registered independent public accountants and included in a report which includes financial statements of Purchaser filed or to be filed by Purchaser with the SEC. Any such set-offs by Purchaser shall represent a reduction of the Purchase Price to the extent ultimately determined to be Losses. The parties agree that to the greatest extent possible, the payment of any indemnity in accordance with this Section 7.4 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price paid by Purchaser under this Agreement for Tax purposes.

7.5 Dispute Resolution

(a) Prior to taking any formal legal action against each other, the parties shall first in good faith consult among appropriate officers of Purchaser and Seller, which consultation shall begin promptly after one party has delivered to the other a written request for consultation. At any time thereafter, either party may request in writing that the dispute be referred to appropriate senior executives of Purchaser and Seller. Within 10 Business Days after such request, the senior executives (and not their designees) shall meet as frequently as necessary, but in no event less than once a week, and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute. If such senior executives cannot resolve the dispute, the Chief Executive Officers (and not their designees) shall meet and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute. If the dispute, claim or controversy cannot be settled or resolved amicably between the parties, then either party may pursue any remedies available to it, whether at law or equity.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.5, in the event of alleged violation or breach of this Agreement by a party (including, without limitation, unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information), the other party may seek temporary injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction. In no event shall any such temporary injunctive relief continue for more than 30 days.

(c) If any part of this Section 7.5 is held to be unenforceable, it shall be severed and shall not affect any other part of this Section 7.5.

7.6 Limitations on Indemnification Obligations

(a) Seller shall not be obligated to indemnify Purchaser for any Losses incurred by Purchaser or other Indemnified Parties of the Purchaser under Section 7.2 until the Losses for which

Purchaser is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement exceed $100,000 in the aggregate, in which case, upon exceeding such threshold amount, Purchaser shall be entitled to recover all such Losses (including such initial threshold amount). Except as expressly provided in the next sentence of this Section 7.6(a), notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall Seller’s liability for Losses under this Section 7.2(a) exceed, in the aggregate, $1,500,000, in no event shall Seller’s liability for Losses under Section 7.2(b) exceed, in the aggregate, the Purchase Price; and in no event shall Purchaser’s liability for Losses under Section 7.2(c) exceed, in the aggregate, the Purchase Price. The provisions of this Section 7.6(a) shall not apply to Seller’s indemnification obligations under this Agreement arising out of, relating to or resulting from fraud by such party.

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the amount of an Indemnifying Party’s liability pursuant to this Section 7 shall be net of any insurance proceeds or other third party indemnity or contribution amounts actually recovered by an Indemnified Party. Each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect any such insurance proceeds or other third party indemnity or contribution amounts recoverable by such Indemnified Party, and in the event any such amounts are collected after a claim for Losses has been paid by an Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse such amounts to such Indemnifying Party.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Indemnifying Party shall be liable to an Indemnified Party for any indirect, special, punitive, exemplary or consequential loss or damage (including any loss of opportunity or loss of value, revenue or profit) arising out of this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be construed to preclude recovery by an Indemnified Party in respect of any such Losses directly incurred as a result of a Third Party Claim.

7.7 Sole and Exclusive Remedy. Following the Closing Date, except in the case of fraud, the indemnification provided in this Section 7 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy after the Closing Date for damages available to the parties to this Agreement for breach of any of the terms, conditions, representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement, or any right, claim or action arising from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that the parties may seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent a breach of, or specific performance to enforce specifically the provisions of, any covenant contained in this Agreement in any court of competent jurisdiction.

8. Miscellaneous Provisions

All notices and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given upon receipt if (i) mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, (ii) sent by Federal Express or other express carrier, fee prepaid, (iii) sent via facsimile or electronic mail with receipt confirmed, or (iv) delivered personally, addressed as follows or to such other address or addresses of which the respective party shall have notified the other.

8.5 Governing Law; Forum. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the applicable laws of the state of California without regard to any principles governing conflicts of laws.

8.7 No Third-Party Beneficiaries.
