(a) Except as provided in Section 6.2(b), for a period of five years following the Closing, MediaTek and Tvia agree that each will keep confidential all of the other’s and the other’s Affiliates’ Confidential Information that is received from, or made available by, the other, or on behalf of the other, in the course of the transactions contemplated hereby. For purposes of this Section 6.2, “Confidential Information” shall mean any of the confidential information transferred hereunder, including the Intellectual Property Assets and any trade secrets related to the Business Products, and other confidential data and formula, information about the other’s and the other’s Affiliates’ business plans and strategies, marketing ideas and concepts, especially with respect to unannounced products and services, present and future product plans, pricing, volume estimates, financial data, product enhancement information, business plans, marketing plans, sales strategies, customer information (including customers’ applications and environments), market testing information, development plans, specifications, customer requirements, configurations, designs, plans, drawings, apparatus, sketches, software, hardware, data, prototypes, connecting requirements or other technical and business information, except that MediaTek shall have no such obligation of confidentiality with respect to Intellectual Property Assets, including trade secrets or other Confidential Information as is conveyed to MediaTek as part of the Purchased Assets.

(c) If any party hereto (or any of its Affiliates) is requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, request for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information, subject to the confidentiality obligations hereunder, such party will promptly notify the other party in writing of such request or requirement and will cooperate with such other party’s efforts to seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy. If a protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the terms of this Article 6 are not waived, and it is in the written opinion of such party’s counsel that it is compelled to disclose the Confidential Information or else stand liable for contempt or suffer other censure or significant penalty, such party may disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information required by law. In such case, such party will exercise its (and will cause its Affiliates to exercise their) commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Confidential Information.

(d) Tvia shall cooperate with MediaTek to ensure that immediately on and after the completion of the Milestone, all of such documents and items constituting Confidential Information which have been conveyed to MediaTek and continue to be located at Tvia’s facility in Hefei, China or its facility in Santa Clara, California, are identified and segregated in locked file drawers or cabinets or other secured rooms or areas, or secured computer networks, as mutually agreed by Tvia and MediaTek.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and except as reasonably necessary to comply with any applicable federal and state securities laws, each of Tvia and MediaTek (and each employee, representative, or other agent of Tvia and MediaTek) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including options or other tax analyses) that are provided to either Tvia or MediaTek relating to such U.S. Federal tax treatment and tax structure, provided, however, that as long as Tvia or MediaTek may consult any tax advisor regarding the U.S. Federal tax treatment or tax structure of the transaction, the foregoing shall not apply until the earlier of the date of the public announcement of discussions relating to the transaction, the date of the public announcement of the transaction, or the date of the execution of an agreement (with or without conditions) to enter into the transaction. For this purpose, “tax structure” is any fact that may be relevant to understanding the U.S. Federal tax treatment of the transaction.

(i) unless MediaTek or Tvia, as the case may be, shall have suffered Losses in an aggregate amount in excess of a number equal to Seventy-five Thousand United States Dollars (US $75,000) (the “Basket Amount”) (and once the aggregate amount of such damages exceeds the Basket Amount, MediaTek or Tvia, as the case may be, shall be entitled to recover the full amount of such up to the Cap (as defined below)); or

(ii) to the extent (and only to the extent) that the aggregate amount of Losses suffered by MediaTek, or Tvia, as the case may be, exceeds a number equal to one hundred percent of the Purchase Price (the “Cap”).

MediaTek and Tvia further acknowledge and agree that all liability of Tvia to MediaTek in connection with the sale of the Purchase Assets shall be limited to one hundred percent of the Purchase Price.

9.4 General Procedures for Indemnification.

(a) The procedures set forth in this Section 9.4 shall apply generally to indemnification sought pursuant to this Article 9; provided, however, claims for indemnification for alleged breaches of Section 3.10 (Intellectual Property) shall be governed by Section 9.5 (Procedures for Intellectual Property Indemnification).

(b) The Indemnified Party seeking indemnification under this Agreement shall promptly notify the party against whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by any Third Party, in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder and will give the Indemnifying Party such information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request, but failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability hereunder (except to the

-26-

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 thirty (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 hereunder (a “Third-Party Claim”), to assume the defense and control the settlement of such Third-Party Claim that (i) involves (and continues to involve) solely money damages or (ii) involves (and continues to involve) claims for both money damages and equitable relief against the Indemnified Party that cannot be severed, where the claims for money damages are the primary claims asserted by the Third Party and the claims for equitable relief are incidental to the claims for money damages, and where the Indemnified Party reasonably determines (and continues to reasonably determine) that defense of the claim by the Indemnifying Party will not affect the Indemnified Party in a material and adverse manner.

(c) 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.

(d) 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) unless such settlement or judgment relates solely to monetary damages. 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 by such Third Party of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the sole and exclusive right to settle any Third-Party Claim, on such terms and conditions as it deems reasonably appropriate, to the extent such Third-Party Claim involves equitable or other nonmonetary relief against the Indemnified Party, and shall have the right to settle any Third-Party Claim involving damages for which the Indemnified Party has not assumed the defense pursuant to this Section 9.4 with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(e) As used in Sections 9.2, 9.3, 9.4 and 9.7, the term “Third Party” shall be deemed to include and refer to an Affiliate of the Indemnifying Party.

9.5 Procedures for Intellectual Property Indemnification. MediaTek and Tvia agree that in the event a claim for indemnification is made by MediaTek based on an alleged breach by Tvia of Section 3.10 (Intellectual Property), in lieu of the procedures set forth in Section 9.4 the following procedures shall apply:

(a) MediaTek shall promptly notify Tvia of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding by any Person, in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Section 9.5 (an “Infringement Claim”) and give Tvia such information with respect thereto as Tvia may reasonably request, but failure to give such notice shall not relieve Tvia of any liability hereunder (except to the extent Tvia has suffered actual prejudice by such failure). Tvia shall have the right, but not the obligation, exercisable by written notice to MediaTek within 30 days of receipt of notice from MediaTek of an Infringement Claim to assume the defense and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 9.5, control the settlement of such Infringement Claim, unless such Infringement Claim seeks only equitable relief and, in MediaTek’s reasonable good-faith

-27-

judgment, the defense of such Infringement Claim by Tvia may adversely affect MediaTek in any material way, in which case MediaTek shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Infringement Claim and any Losses incurred by MediaTek in connection therewith that is in excess of the Holdback Amount remaining in escrow up to the limit of the escrow pursuant to the Escrow Agreement by and among the parties hereto (the “Escrow Agreement”), shall be promptly paid by Tvia. In addition, if Tvia fails to provide MediaTek with a written notice that Tvia shall assume the defense of an Infringement Claim or otherwise fails to vigorously prosecute the defense of an Infringement Claim, MediaTek shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Infringement Claim and any Losses incurred by MediaTek in connection therewith shall be promptly paid by Tvia, to the extent the amount of such Losses exceed the remaining Holdback Amount held in escrow pursuant to the Escrow Agreement provided however, that such amount shall not exceed the Cap.

(b) MediaTek shall have the right to participate in (but not control), at its own expense, the defense of any Infringement Claim that Tvia is defending as provided in this Agreement. MediaTek shall cooperate with Tvia in a reasonable way to facilitate the settlement or defense of such Infringement Claim, and shall not acknowledge the validity of any alleged Infringement Claim or of any patent, copyright or mask work of any Third Party, or otherwise make statements that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of hampering or undermining Tvia’s defense or settlement of the Infringement Claim. In the event a question arises concerning a matter subject to this Section 9.5 Tvia shall, after the Closing Date, be entitled to reasonable discovery to ascertain relevant facts, including reasonable access to MediaTek’s records and to MediaTek’s employees with relevant knowledge.

(c) Tvia, if it shall have assumed the defense of any Infringement Claim as provided in this Section 9.5, shall not consent to the settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Infringement Claim without MediaTek’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless such settlement or judgment relates solely to monetary damages or the payment of a royalty or other compensation, whether retroactive and/or prospective, for the use of Intellectual Property Assets. Tvia shall not, without MediaTek’s prior written consent, enter into any compromise or settlement that (i) commits MediaTek to take, or forebear to take, any action, other than the payment of a reasonable royalty or other reasonable compensation for the use of Intellectual Property Assets or (ii) does not obtain for MediaTek the right to continued use of the allegedly infringing Intellectual Property Assets unless Tvia has (x) procured for MediaTek the right to continue using such Intellectual Property Assets or (y) provided instructions to replace or modify the same so that it is not subject to such Infringement Claim and is, in MediaTek’s reasonable judgment, financially equivalent, in each case in clauses (i) and (ii), upon commercially reasonable terms for the industries under which the Business Products are classified. MediaTek shall have the sole and exclusive right to settle any Infringement Claim for which MediaTek has assumed the defense thereof pursuant to this Section 9.5 with Tvia’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(d) In the event of an Infringement Claim subject to this Section 9.5, then after the Closing Date Tvia and MediaTek will negotiate in good faith an appropriate joint defense agreement.

9.6 Certain Government Fees. MediaTek hereby agrees to indemnify Tvia for any penalties, fees or other similar payments levied by the applicable Government Body in the People’s Republic of China on Tvia as a result of the employment of the Business Employees, including the Selected Employees, by MediaTek.

-28-

9.7 Right of Set-Off Against Holdback Amount. In order to satisfy any indemnification obligations of Tvia pursuant to this Article 9, MediaTek (and each of MediaTek’s respective directors, officers, employees and other Affiliates) shall have the right to recover Losses incurred or suffered by MediaTek in connection with any Third-Party Claims or Infringement Claims by setting off the amount of any such Losses against the Holdback Amount otherwise due to Tvia pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement. The parties agree that to the greatest extent possible, the payment of any indemnity in accordance with this Section 9.7 shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price paid by MediaTek hereunder for tax purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holdback Amount shall in no way limit Tvia’s liability, or MediaTek’s right to recover from Tvia, for Losses that are indemnified by Tvia up to the amount of the Cap.

9.8 Arbitration; Choice of Law. The parties desire to avoid traditional forms of litigation and, therefore, agree that any dispute, controversy or claim, whether based on contract, tort, statute or other legal theory (including but not limited to any claim of fraud or misrepresentation), concerning or relating to this Agreement other than Infringement Claims (a “Dispute”), shall be resolved in the following manner:

(a) The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the Dispute through direct consultations among appropriate officers of MediaTek and Tvia, which 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 MediaTek and Tvia. Within 10 Business Days after such request, the senior executives shall meet as frequently as necessary, and attempt to resolve the dispute. If such senior executives cannot resolve the Dispute, the Chief Executive Officers (and not their designees) shall meet and attempt to resolve the Dispute. If the Dispute cannot be settled or resolved amicably between the parties, then the parties shall submit the dispute for arbitration in accordance with this Section 9.8.;

(b) If the Dispute has not been resolved as a result of the procedure in paragraph (a) hereof or otherwise within 45 days of the initial written notice that there is a Dispute (or such additional time to which the parties may agree), the matter shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration in Palo Alto, California, conducted in the English language in accordance with the applicable rules of American Arbitration Association before a single arbitrator, unless MediaTek and Tvia agree otherwise. The arbitrator’s decisions and award shall be issued in writing within thirty (30) Business Days from the hearing of final arguments of the parties, and shall set forth the reasons for the decisions and award. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator shall not have the power to award punitive or exemplary damages, or any damages excluded by, or in excess of any damage limitations expressed in, this Agreement or any subsequent agreement between the parties.

(d) Issues of arbitrability shall be determined in accordance with the substantive and procedural laws of the United States relating to arbitration; all other aspects of this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with, and the arbitrator shall apply and be bound to follow the substantive laws of, the State of California. Each party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees associated with the arbitration and other costs and expenses of the arbitration shall be borne as provided by the applicable rules of American Arbitration Association.

-29-

(e) The arbitrator may order the parties to exchange copies of witness lists and exhibits (other than those that may be used for rebuttal) in advance of the arbitration hearing. The arbitrator shall have the power to order limited written discovery (not including discovery by way of interrogatories) and no more than three depositions per side, unless MediaTek and Tvia otherwise agree in writing.

(f) The dispute resolution proceedings contemplated by this provision shall be as confidential and private as permitted by law. To that end, no party, witness or arbitrator shall disclose the existence, content or results of any proceedings conducted in accordance with this provision, and materials prepared or submitted in connection with such proceedings shall not be admissible in any other proceeding, provided, however, that this confidentiality provision shall not prevent a petition to vacate or enforce an arbitral award, and shall not bar disclosures required by law. The parties agree that a protective order in furtherance of these obligations shall be entered by the arbitrator. The parties agree that any decision or award resulting from proceedings in accordance with this dispute resolution provision shall have no preclusive effect in any other matter involving third parties.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.8, in the event of alleged violation or breach of this Agreement by a party (including, but not limited to, unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information), the other party may seek temporary injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction pending appointment of an arbitrator. The party requesting such relief shall simultaneously file a demand for arbitration of the dispute, and shall request American Arbitration Association to proceed under its rules for expedited hearing.

(h) If any part of this Section 9.8 is held to be unenforceable, it shall be severed and shall not affect either the duty to arbitrate hereunder or any other part of this Section 9.8.

Neither Tvia nor MediaTek shall, without the approval of the other party, make any press release or other public announcement concerning the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except as and to the extent that any such party shall be so obligated by law, in which case the other party shall be advised and the parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause a mutually agreeable release or announcement to be issued; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not preclude communications or disclosures necessary to (a) implement the provisions of this Agreement or (b) comply with accounting obligations and reporting obligations under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Nasdaq Stock Market if such reporting, although not required, is necessary in the judgment of Counsel to Tvia.
