the extent so made infringes any patent that would have been covered by
any such third party patent license in existence as of the CLOSING DATE
between MOTOROLA and such third party if said patent license had been
extended or assigned to SCILLC or its SUBSIDIARIES. This indemnity shall
not apply to any products sold by SCILLC or its SUBSIDIARIES that are not
INDEMNIFIED PRODUCTS.
8.4.1. MOTOROLA's total, cumulative obligation to indemnify as set forth

license which MOTOROLA was a party to with such licensor as that
term existed as of the CLOSING DATE or for three (3) years,
whichever is shorter (hereinafter the "Indemnification Period").

patent infringement against SCILLC within the Indemnification
Period and outside the Indemnification Period, SCILLC and MOTOROLA
agree that the costs arising out of such lawsuit will be
apportioned accordingly. In no event will the preceding sentence
be interpreted to expand MOTOROLA's indemnification obligation set

third party asserts a claim of infringement against SCILLC or its
SUBSIDIARIES after receiving such claim from SCILLC or its

whatsoever for any claims brought by any
