| administrative action by any regulatory agency (collectively, “Order”), such Order shall be immediately tendered to the Project Manager, who shall formulate a proposed response. The proposed response by the Project Manager to an Order shall be subject to approval by the Parties pursuant to the procedures contained in Paragraph 5. All jointly authorized costs and expenses, including legal and consulting costs incurred in defending or challenging an Order and all Remediation Costs arising or resulting from an Order, shall be allocated under the terms of Paragraph 2 above, regardless of which Party or Parties receives the Order. |

| Notice shall be provided to all Parties within ten (10) business days after receipt by an Indemnified Party or any other Party of any Claim. Failure to notify any Party consistent with this Paragraph shall not negate FMC’s and Siemens’ obligations to the Indemnified Parties without a showing of actual material prejudice. |
| In the event that a Claim is brought against an Indemnified Party, FMC and Siemens shall assume control of the defense of the Claim. The Indemnified Parties, at their sole expense, may employ additional counsel of their choice to associate with counsel selected by FMC and Siemens to defend the Indemnified Parties. The Indemnified Parties shall cooperate with FMC and Siemens in the evaluation of, defense of or response to any Claim asserted against them, and will give reasonable information and assistance to FMC and Siemens, other than monetary, as necessary for the proper evaluation or defense of such Claim. FMC and Siemens will periodically report to, and discuss the evaluation or defense of any Claim with the Indemnified Party or its independent retained counsel and will keep the Indemnified Party advised of significant events during any such defense. |

| without the written consent of the other Parties. The Parties may disclose, without consent, necessary information to its auditors, insurers or other similar entities with a reason to know. |

In addition, should any regulatory agency require additional remedial work in connection with the Contamination after issuance of the closure letters referenced in this Paragraph, the terms of Paragraphs 2-7 of this Agreement shall continue to govern the allocation of Remediation Costs among the Parties and overall remediation procedures. |
| 12. | Complete Agreement: This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties except for the separate Settlement Agreement between FMC, Siemens and Coors dated July 8, 1998, and supersedes and/or integrates any prior or contemporaneous understanding or agreements whether oral or written concerning the subject matter of this Agreement, including, but not limited to the Curphy Agreement. To the extent that obligations created by the Curphy Agreement arise in the future, the handling and response to such obligations shall be governed by this Agreement, including any indemnification obligations. |
| 13. | Modification: No amendment, modification, revision or waiver of this Agreement shall be valid unless it is in writing and signed by each of the Parties. |
| 14. | Enforceability: If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be unenforceable for any reason, that provision shall be adjusted rather than voided, if possible, in order to achieve the intent of the Parties to the extent possible. In any event, the remaining provisions shall be deemed valid and enforceable to the maximum extent possible. |
| 15. | Drafting: Each party acknowledges that it has participated in the drafting of this Agreement with the assistance of counsel of its choice, and that this Agreement has been negotiated at arm’s length by parties of equal bargaining power. |
| 16. | Choice of Law: This Agreement shall be governed, enforced and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado without regard to any conflict of law rules. |
| 17. | Dispute Resolution: All disputes arising under this Agreement shall be submitted to mediation within sixty (60) days from notice thereof through the offices of Xxxxxxx Xxxx, or through any other mediator mutually agreed to by all Parties. Should the Parties be unable to resolve the disputed matter after a period of sixty (60) days of mediation, any Party may submit the matter to binding arbitration |
| according to the rules and practices of the American Arbitration Association then in effect. The arbitrator shall be selected by Xxxxxxx Xxxx or his replacement mediator. The ruling of the arbitrator shall be binding on all Parties and shall not be subject to appeal. In the event that a dispute is submitted to arbitration hereunder, reasonable costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees expert witness fees, and costs, shall be awarded to the substantially prevailing Party as determined by the arbitrator. |
| 17. | No Liability: This Agreement shall not be construed to create, either expressly or by implication, a partnership between the Parties or an agency relationship between the Parties. Except to the extent, if any, otherwise specifically provided for in this Agreement, no Party shall be liable or otherwise responsible for the acts, errors, or omissions of the officers, agents, employees, or contractors of any other Party, including any such acts, errors or omissions entered into, committed, or performed pursuant to or as contemplated by this Agreement. |
| 18. | Limitation of Liability: The obligations of the Parties under this Agreement shall not constitute the personal obligations of their shareholders, or of their directors, officers, employees, consultants, agents or invitees, and each Party shall look only to the assets of the other Party for the satisfaction of any liability with respect to this Agreement, and shall not seek recourse against the shareholders of the other Party, or against the directors, officers, employees, consultants, agents, or invitees of the other party, or against their personal assets for such satisfaction. |
| 19. | Notices: All notices provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be deemed given when a copy thereof is sent to the Party for whom it is intended at the appropriate address. |

First Amendment to the Settlement Agreement
This First Amendment to the Settlement Agreement (“First Amendment”) is entered into as of , 2001 and amends the Settlement Agreement (“Agreement”) dated July 8, 1998 between Microsemi Corp. - Colorado (“Microsemi”), FMC Corporation (“FMC”), Siemens Microelectronics, Inc., now known as SMI Holding LLC (“Siemens”), and Coors Porcelain Company, now known as Coors Tek (“Coors”) (the “Parties”).
Recitals
WHEREAS, pursuant to the Agreement the Parties established a cooperative, long-term arrangement to allocate costs of, and to cooperate otherwise in, remedial activities at and around the Facility, as that term is defined in the Agreement; to handle claims by third parties; and to address other issues relating to the presence of Contamination, as that term is defined herein; and,
WHEREAS, to date, the Parties have performed the terms of the Agreement cooperatively and successfully, and now wish (1) to memorialize certain terms and conditions under which the Parties have operated since execution of the Agreement, and (2) to add new provisions to the Agreement; and,
WHEREAS, the Parties recognize that the Agreement remains fully effective and enforceable pursuant to its original terms, except as those terms are specifically and explicitly modified by this First Amendment; and,
WHEREAS, there has been litigation relating to the Contamination, and there could be additional litigation, either with respect to claims by third parties or with respect to the State of Colorado’s oversight of the Parties’ activities relating to the Contamination, such that there is a continuing need for the Parties to maintain all evidentiary privileges applicable to activities jointly undertaken by the Parties;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and in the Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree that the following revisions and additions are made to the Agreement:
Definitions
Definitions of capitalized terms as set forth in the Agreement and this First Amendment control, except that the following definition in the Agreement is amended:
“Contamination” means DNAPL, the groundwater plume, and associated soil contamination originating at and emanating from the Facility, the extent of which has not been defined as of the date of the First Amendment, but which includes contamination as indicated on the map(s) attached hereto as Attachment A.
Agreement
1. Except as and to the extent specifically modified by this First Amendment, the Agreement remains binding and in full force and effect. The provisions of this First Amendment are incorporated into the Agreement. To the extent the provisions of this First Amendment conflict with the Agreement, the terms of the First Amendment control. This First Amendment does not address and is not intended to have any impact on the Separate Settlement Agreement, dated July 8, 1998, among FMC, Siemens, and Coors.
2. Since the date of the Agreement, the Parties have been cooperating, and will continue to cooperate in the investigation of the nature and extent of the Contamination at and near the Microsemi Property, and in the investigation and development of appropriate responses to the Contamination (the “Investigation”). The Parties agree that the results of the Investigation constitute joint defense material. The Parties also agree that all otherwise privileged information, communications, and documents they exchange in connection with the Investigation (“Privileged Information”) are subject to and protected by a joint defense privilege, and that the exchange of Privileged Information between or among the Parties does not constitute a waiver, for any purpose or under any circumstance, of any other applicable privilege, including without limitation the attorney-client or attorney work product privileges.
3. The Parties agree that neither they nor their attorneys, consultants or other agents retained in connection with the Contamination will disclose any Privileged Information voluntarily to any third party, without the prior written consent of the Party from whom the information was obtained. The Parties agree that if any one of them is served with a subpoena or other process which would require the production of Privileged Information, they will notify the other Parties in a timely fashion to allow for the assertion of applicable privileges, and any costs associated with such assertion shall be borne by the Party asserting the privilege unless the Parties otherwise agree. The obligations of the Parties to maintain and preserve the confidentiality of Privileged Information will survive the termination of the Agreement.
4. The Parties may agree to undertake from time to time other activities in furtherance of their joint defense, in addition to those described in the Agreement, this First Amendment and all future amendments, and those other activities will be subject to the agreements as to privilege and joint defense set forth herein.
5. The Parties agree to use reasonable efforts to ensure, to the extent practicable, the advance distribution to the Parties of drafts of written submittals to regulatory agencies, such that each Party has at least three days for review before comments thereon are to be provided, and such that input from all Parties may reasonably be considered for incorporation.
6. Paragraph 3 of the Agreement is amended by deleting the existing language and replacing it with the following: Remediation Fund: For administrative efficiency, Siemens will establish an interest-bearing account (“Remediation Account”), and all funds remaining in the account previously established by Coors shall be transferred to Siemens for deposit in the Remediation Account immediately upon establishment thereof. The Remediation Account will be further funded by the Parties in amounts agreed upon by the Parties, in the percentages identified in Paragraph 2, when the overall balance falls below $50,000. Any amounts remaining in the Remediation Account at the termination of this Agreement will be refunded to the Parties in the same percentage as their contribution.
7. Paragraph 4 of the Agreement is amended by the addition of the following: The Project Manager will coordinate access to the Microsemi Property for all purposes with the Environmental Health & Safety Manager of Microsemi. The Parties will continue to cooperate in negotiating an access agreement with other parties, including Geneva Pharmaceuticals, Inc., as necessary to the Investigation.
8. Paragraph 5 of the Agreement is amended by the addition of the following at the end of the first sentence: and to review and approve legal and consultant invoices. The Project Manager is generally responsible for project administration including business and financial matters. The Project Manager will provide a written financial and accounting report to the Parties on at least a semi-annual basis.
9. Paragraph 6 of the Agreement is amended by the addition of the following after the first sentence: FMC and Siemens have authority, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Parties, to retain and contract with the Project Consultant appointed by the Parties, subject to approval of the contract by Microsemi with respect to those provisions relating to protection of Microsemi’s interests as owner of the Microsemi Property. The Project Consultant will act on behalf of and for the benefit of all the Parties, notwithstanding the fact that only FMC and Siemens are signatories to the Project Consultant’s contract.
10. Paragraph 7 of the Agreement is amended by the addition of the following: The Parties will appoint legal counsel (“Common Counsel”) to work with the Project Manager to represent their joint interests as to the management and remediation of the Contamination and for negotiating with regulatory agencies with respect thereto. FMC and Siemens will have authority, on behalf of the Parties, to retain Common Counsel to act on behalf of and to the benefit of all the Parties, notwithstanding the fact that Common Counsel is retained by FMC and Siemens. Fees and costs incurred by Common Counsel will be paid by the Parties in accordance with Paragraph 2. The Parties
may agree from time to time that certain fees and costs incurred by the Parties’ separate counsel in the joint legal representation of the Parties be paid in accordance with Paragraph 2, but otherwise each Party is responsible for the fees of its separate counsel.
11. Paragraph 19 of the Agreement is amended by striking the list of designees for receiving notices under the Agreement, and replacing that list with the following:
