harmless CSC, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors,
employees, distributors, agents, successors and assigns from and against any and
all loss, damage, settlement or expense (including reasonable legal expenses),
as incurred, resulting from or arising out of any claims which allege that the
VTB Software or the use or sale thereof infringe upon, misappropriate or violate
any patents, copyrights, or trade secret rights or other proprietary rights of
persons, firms or entities who are not parties to this Agreement; provided that
CSC (i) promptly notifies SDI, in writing, of any notice or claim of such
alleged infringement or misappropriation involving the VTB Software of which it
becomes aware; (ii) permits SDI to control, the defense, settlement, adjustment
or compromise of any such claim; (iii) the claim does not result from
modification of the VTB Software which modification is not authorized by SDI;

customers shall be prevented or are likely to be prevented by legal means from

expense, to: (i) obtain all rights required to permit the sale or use of the VTB
Software by CSC; or (ii) modify or replace such VTB Software to make then non-
infringing (and extend this indemnity thereof), provided that any such
replacement or modified VTB is functionally equivalent to the VTB Software. If
SDI is unable to achieve either of the options set forth above within a
reasonable period of time after the issuance of the injunction, or reasonably
believes that an injunction will issue and that such options cannot be achieved
within a reasonable period of time, then neither party will sell or distribute
the VTB Software in accordance with the terms of such injunction-or SDI's
reasonable instructions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all payments due from
CSC hereunder shall be paid whether or not the VTB Software may be used, sold or
distributed by any of the parties under such injunction or instructions of SDI.
This Section 7 states SDI's entire obligation with respect to claims that the
VTB Software or any rights therein infringe or misappropriate the rights of any
third party.
Section 8
CSC WAVEBRIDGE PRODUCTS
CSC agrees to sell CSC Wavebridge products to SDT's customers who have
purchased VTB Software from SDI. Upon CSC's approval, subject to SDI executing

VISUAL TESTBENCH COMPONENTS
Visual Testbench consists of modified Visual HDL for Verilog and VHDL, Visual IF
Testbench harness code, Visual HDL simulation interface, various internal TDS
routines, WDB input/output routines and Visual Testbench on-line documentation.
For customer delivery these source code modules are compiled to a single Visual
Testbench binary executable module.
A Testbench is created using the Visual HDL Flow chart editor, Block diagram
editor and Waveform/Timing diagram editor. The Testbench is connected to the
simulated circuit using the Visual HDL Block Diagram editor and the Visual
Testbench Launch editor.
The Testbench harness is compiled with the customer's simulator and design as to
stimulate and examine the circuit under investigation. The Testbench harness
reads and writes TSSI WDB databases through binary linkable library functions.
The examples include Visual HDL databases and Verilog or VHDL codes sufficient
to demonstrate basic and advanced product operation. The examples are
operational and will produce legitimate WDB output.
DOCUMENTATION
Visual Testbench documentation consists of a binary file in Framemaker mif
format describing theory of operation, external controls, and function call
interface of the product. The mif file is interpreted by a view for run time
viewing of the test.
