ARTICLE V

TERMINATION

Section 5.1 Termination.

(a) If at any time Numonyx receives Net Available Proceeds Micron has reason to believe ST is in breach of any material provision of this Agreement such that Numonyx would not be obligated to deposit such Net Available Proceeds into the Numonyx Account as set forth in Section 2.1, Micron shall deliver to ST written notice thereof, specifying in reasonable detail the nature of such breach.

(b) If (i) Micron has delivered a notice of breach as provided in Section 5.1(a), (ii) Micron has notified ST of the receipt of any Net Available Proceeds, (iii) ST has not cured such breach within 270 days after the later of the delivery of the notice of breach and the notice to ST of the receipt of any Net Available Proceeds, and (iv) at such time neither Numonyx nor Micron is in material breach of this Agreement, then Micron may terminate this Agreement by delivery of written notice to ST of such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, Numonyx shall have no obligation to transfer any Net Available Proceeds during any such 270-day period. Upon such termination, the provisions of this Agreement shall terminate, except this Article V and Article VI hereof, which shall survive and remain in full force and effect.

ARTICLE VI

Section 6.7 Waiver of Jury Trial.
