As used herein, the term “Jabil Existing Intellectual Property” means any discoveries, inventions, technical information, procedures, manufacturing or other processes, software, firmware, technology, know-how or other intellectual property rights owned, developed or obtained by Jabil outside of this Letter Agreement or known by Jabil prior to the execution of this Letter Agreement that are used by Jabil in creating, or are embodied within, any Product, the Manufacturing Services or other work performed under this Letter Agreement. |
Upon full payment of all monies due and owing under this Letter Agreement and all other monies due and owing to Jabil pursuant to any other related agreement executed by the Parties, Jabil will grant to Company a worldwide, non-exclusive, fully paid-up, royalty free right and license to the Jabil Existing Intellectual Property only insofar as is required for Company to use, sell or distribute the Product provided as part of the Manufacturing Services performed by Jabil pursuant to this Letter Agreement; provided however, that no license to manufacturing processes and/or manufacturing process improvements shall be granted hereunder.
8. | Jabil Created Intellectual Property.

Jabil may employ counsel, at its own expense to assist Jabil with respect to any such claims, provided that if such counsel is necessary because of a conflict of interest with Company or its counsel or because Company does not assume control of the defense of a claim for which Company is obligated to indemnify Jabil hereunder, Company shall bear such expense. Company shall not enter into any settlement that affects Jabil’s rights or interests without Jabil’s prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Jabil will provide such assistance and cooperation as is reasonably requested by Company or its counsel in connection with such indemnified claims.
11. | Confidentiality Obligations. In order to protect both Parties’ proprietary information, intellectual property and technology (“Confidential Information”) the Parties agree that each Party shall use the same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, as such Party uses with respect to its own similar information to protect the Confidential Information of the other Party and to prevent any use of Confidential Information other than for the purposes of this Letter Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sections 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 16, and 17 herein shall survive the expiration or termination of this Letter Agreement. |
13. | Force Majeure. Neither Party will be liable for any delay in performing or for failing to perform its obligations under this Letter Agreement (other than the payment of money) resulting from any cause beyond its reasonable control including, without limitation, acts of God; blackouts; power failures; inclement weather; fire; explosions; floods; hurricanes; typhoons; tornadoes; earthquakes; epidemics; strikes; work stoppages; labor, component or material shortages; slow-downs; industrial disputes; sabotage; accidents; destruction of production facilities; riots or civil disturbances; acts of government or governmental agencies, including changes in law or regulations that materially and adversely impact the Party, and U.S. Government priority orders or contracts; provided that the Party affected by such event promptly notifies (and in no event more than ten (10) business days of discovery of the event) the other Party of the event.
