[In the case of shipments to shipping designations outside the
United States, Distributor and AltiGen expressly agree that
beneficial and legal title to, ownership of, right to possession
of, control over, and risks of

payment, the method of shipment, the manner of consignment,
whether to AltiGen, or its agent, to Distributor or

limit or modify the right of AltiGen as the legal and
beneficial owner of the products, its right to control and its
right to possession of such goods until they physically arrive
at the port of entry of the importing country (or at a bonded
warehouse within the jurisdictional boundaries of Canada or
Mexico if Distributor requests shipment to those countries).
It is expressly understood that the foregoing shall not be
construed to mean that AltiGen has merely retained bare legal
title for security purposes, but rather retains legal title
and full beneficial ownership until the shipment arrives at
the port of entry in the country of destination (or at a
bonded warehouse within the jurisdictional boundaries of
Canada or Mexico if Distributor requests shipment to those
countries.) If Distributor insures the shipment, insurance
policies will protect the interest of AltiGen as the legal
owner of the merchandise until title transfers as set forth

9. Indemnification
9.1 AltiGen Infringement Indemnity. Subject to the limitations set
forth herein below, AltiGen shall defend Distributor with respect to
any claim, suit or proceeding brought against Distributor to the extent
it is based upon a claim that any Product sold pursuant to this
Agreement infringes upon any U.S. patent, U.S. trademark, U.S.
copyright or U.S. trade secret of any third party; provided, however,
that Distributor
11
(i) promptly notifies AltiGen in writing of such claim, suit or
proceeding; (ii) gives AltiGen the right to control and direct
investigation, preparation, defense and settlement of any claim, suit
or proceeding; and (iii) gives assistance and full cooperation for the
defense of same, and, further provided, that AltiGen's liability with
respect to portions of Products provided by or licensed from third
parties will be limited to the extent AltiGen is indemnified by such
third parties. AltiGen shall pay any resulting damages, costs and
expenses finally awarded to a third party, but AltiGen shall not be
liable for such amounts, or for settlements incurred by Distributor,
without AltiGen's prior written authorization. If a Product is, or in
AltiGen's opinion might be, held to infringe as set forth above.
AltiGen may, at its option, replace or modify such Product so as to
avoid infringement, or procure the right for Distributor to continue
the use and resale of such Product. If neither of such alternatives is,
in AltiGen's opinion, reasonably possible, the infringing Product shall
be returned to AltiGen, and AltiGen's sole liability, in addition to
its obligation to reimburse any awarded damages, costs and expenses set
forth above, shall be to refund the purchase price paid for such
Products by Distributor.
9.2 Exclusions. The provisions of the indemnity provided in Section
9.1 (with respect to infringement) shall not apply with respect to any
instances of alleged infringement based upon or arising out of the use
of such Products in any manner for which the Products were not
designed, or for use of Products other than the uses and distributions
designated by AltiGen, for use of any Product that has been modified by
Distributor or any third party, or for use of any Product in connection
with or in combination with any equipment, devices or software that
have not been supplied by AltiGen. Notwithstanding any other provisions
hereof, the foregoing indemnity shall not apply with respect to any
infringement based on Distributor's activities occurring subsequent to
its receipt of notice of any claimed infringement unless AltiGen shall
have given Distributor written permission to continue to market and
distribute the allegedly infringing Product.
9.3 Entire Liability and Limitation. THE FOREGOING SECTIONS 10.1 AND
10.2 STATE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY OF DISTRIBUTOR AND THE ENTIRE
LIABILITY AND OBLIGATION OF ALTIGEN WITH RESPECT TO INFRINGEMENT OR
CLAIMS OF INFRINGEMENT OF ANY PATENT, COPYRIGHT, TRADE SECRET OR OTHER
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHT BY THE PRODUCTS OR ANY PART THEREOF.
9.4 Product Defect Indemnity: Subject to the limitations set forth
herein below, AltiGen shall defend Distributor with respect to any

provided, however, that Distributor (i) promptly notifies AltiGen in
writing of such claim, suit or proceeding; (ii) gives AltiGen the right
to control and direct investigation, preparation, defense and
settlement of any claim, suit or proceeding; and (iii) gives assistance
and full cooperation for the defense of same, and, further provided,
that AltiGen's liability with respect to portions of Products provided
by or licensed from third parties will be limited to the extent AltiGen
is indemnified by such third parties. AltiGen shall pay any resulting
damages, costs and expenses finally
12
awarded to a third party, but AltiGen shall not be liable for such
amounts, or settlements incurred by Distributor, without AltiGen's
prior written authorization.
9.5 Indemnity by Distributor. DISTRIBUTOR AGREES TO INDEMNITY AND

PART OF DISTRIBUTOR OR REPRESENTATIVE OF DISTRIBUTOR. DISTRIBUTOR SHALL
BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR, AND SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD ALTIGEN
HARMLESS FROM, ANY CLAIMS, WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS MADE BY
DISTRIBUTOR OR DISTRIBUTOR'S EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS WHICH DIFFER FROM THE
WARRANTY PROVIDED BY ALTIGEN IN ITS END USER AGREEMENT.
9.6 Mutual Indemnity Regarding Personal Injury and Other Damages.
Each party shall indemnify and hold the other harmless from and against
any and all claims, actions, damages, demands, liabilities, costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses, resulting
from any act or omission of the acting party or its employees or agents

TO: XXXXXX MICRO VENDORS
FROM: XXX XXXXXX - SR. DIRECTOR OF LOGISTICS & TRANSPORTATION
SUBJECT: VENDOR ROUTING GUIDE
This guide was prepared to provide you with a comprehensive freight policy and
to assist you in better understanding the transportation needs of Xxxxxx Micro.
This guide is for shipments originating in the U.S. and shipping to Xxxxxx Micro
Distribution Centers located in the U.S. and/or our Fremont, CA Consolidation
Center. The instructions in this guide supersede any previous routing
instructions written or oral. If an unauthorized carrier is used, Xxxxxx Micro
reserves the right to debit the vendor for costs incurred through noncompliance
with these instructions. There is a 60 day grace period associated with any
changes you must make to comply with this guide.
In this guide you will see information that applies to any Xxxxxx Micro
shipment, information that applies to shipments moving to our Consolidation
Center in Fremont, CA, information that applies to shipments moving to our
distribution centers, information that applies to packaging specification, and
information that applies to shipping document requirements.
Information that applies to any Xxxxxx Micro shipments:
. If you currently pay freight, we would urge you to consider using our
selected carriers. By using these carriers you will experience reduced
cycle times because of our electronic commerce arrangements with the
carriers. The carriers we have selected have some of the lowest claims
ratios in the industry. Finally, we believe these carriers are best
able to service Xxxxxx Micro freight based on their understanding of
our unique operating requirements.
. Freight Routing Instructions (when Xxxxxx Micro pays freight):
All ground shipments must be shipped "FREIGHT COLLECT"
Do not ship COD for freight or product. Shipments will be refused.
Do not insure or declare value on any shipment unless previously
authorized by Xxxxxx Micro Traffic (contact information on page
5).
All shipments must be in closed vehicles. Do not tender shipments
to any carrier utilizing flat bed or stake bed trucks.
The vendor will be responsible for all air freight shipments
unless otherwise permitted by Xxxxxx Micro Traffic.
. Shipments between 1 and 150 pounds are considered a small parcel
shipment. We request that our vendors keep small shipments to a
minimum. We understand that there is a need to ship small shipments as
a result of backorders and special orders. When it is necessary to ship
small orders and it is not possible to consolidate into an LTL
shipment, please use RPS Collect.
. Drop shipments
When Xxxxxx Micro is responsible for paying freight and you are
shipping directly to an Xxxxxx Micro customer. Send all shipments THIRD
PARTY XXXX TO XXXXXX MICRO.
. Hazardous Materials/Dangerous Goods
Shipments of goods falling under the definition of Title 49CFR as
hazardous materials will not be accepted by Xxxxxx Micro. Please notify
