Expenditures by Romeo for Romeo R&D Activities above the R&D Minimum in any given fiscal year, which are not expenditures for Romeo R&D Activities to cover a shortfall in the R&D Minimum for a previous fiscal year, shall be carried forward to the immediate subsequent fiscal year in order to calculate whether Romeo has met the R&D Minimum in such years. JV shall promptly provide a copy of its annual audited financial statements to each of the other Parties upon receipt of such statements from JV’s external auditor. Except as otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, JV shall pay the IP Fee annually in a lump sum payment within thirty (30) days after JV’s receipt of the audited financial statements with respect to JV’s prior fiscal year. Romeo shall also have the right, not more than once each fiscal year of JV, to audit JV’s records for the purpose of verifying the IP Fee paid for the prior fiscal year of JV. Such audits shall be conducted during normal business hours and shall not unreasonably interfere with JV’s conduct of its business. Each such audit shall be at Romeo’s expense, unless a particular audit reveals that JV underpaid by five percent (5%) or more, in which case JV shall bear the expense of such audit.

4.6 Maintenance of Current Romeo IP and Future Romeo IP.

4.6.1 IP Holdco Patents. Romeo shall pay any and all maintenance and annuity fees due on behalf of IP Holdco to keep patents within the Current Romeo IP, Future Romeo IP, and IP Holdco IP in force at all times. Romeo agrees to perform all acts that it, in agreement with any of the other Parties, deems necessary to permit and assist IP Holdco in obtaining, perfecting and enforcing the full benefits, enjoyment, rights and title throughout the world in, to and of the Current Romeo IP or Future Romeo IP. If IP Holdco is unable for any reason to secure Romeo’s signature (or signature of any Romeo employee or agent) on any document required to file, prosecute, maintain, register or memorialize the assignment of any rights in or to any Current Romeo IP or Future Romeo IP, Romeo hereby irrevocably designates and appoints IP Holdco and IP Holdco’s duly authorized officers and agents as Romeo’s agents and attorneys-in-fact to act for and on Romeo’s behalf and instead of Romeo to take all lawfully permitted acts to further the filing, prosecution, registration, maintain, memorialization of assignment, issuance and enforcement of rights in or to Current Romeo IP or Future Romeo IP, all with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Romeo. If IP Holdco desires to cease paying any maintenance or annuity fees for any patent, it shall give JV and BorgWarner not less than forty-five (45) days’ prior written notice of such intention. The notice shall identify the patent in question, the fees or steps needed and the time by which they must be paid or taken. JV shall then have the right, but not the obligation, within thirty (30) days of receiving such notice, to elect by written notice to take over ownership, and maintenance at its cost; thereafter, IP Holdco shall enter into an assignment of that patent or application and all rights, title and interest thereunder to JV.

4.6.2 IP Holdco Patent Applications. If Romeo desires to cease paying any maintenance or annuity fees for any patent application, or abandon the prosecution of any patent application, on behalf of IP Holdco, it shall give JV and BorgWarner written notice of such intention not less than forty-five (45) days’ prior to the applicable fee payment or abandonment deadline. The notice shall identify the application in question, the fees or steps needed and the time by which they must be paid or taken. JV shall then have the right, but not the obligation, within thirty (30) days of receiving such notice, to elect by written notice to take over ownership and prosecution at its cost; thereafter, IP Holdco shall enter into an assignment of that patent application and all rights, title and interest thereunder to JV.

Any remaining recovery or damages derived from such action shall be the sole property of such Party bringing the enforcement action or the joint property if more than one Party brought the enforcement action.

9.5 Declaratory Actions. In the event that a declaratory judgment action alleging invalidity or non-infringement of any patent included in any Intellectual Property licensed under this Agreement shall be brought against the IP Owner, the other Party’s not owning such Intellectual Property shall have no obligation to defend any such action, but each Party shall have the right to join in the defense of any such action and, in such event, shall pay 50% its equivalent share of the cost of such action. In such event, IP Owner will confer with such joining Party prior to making any decision regarding settlement or other significant decisions regarding the action, and no such decision will be made without such joining Party’s consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

9.6 Cooperation. In any infringement suit or declaratory action relating to any Intellectual Property licensed under this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9, all Parties shall, at the request and expense of the Party initiating such suit, cooperate in all respects and, to the extent possible, have its employees testify when requested and make available relevant records, papers, information, samples, specimens, and the like.

15.2 Licenses of Intellectual Property; Embodiments of Intellectual Property. All rights and licenses granted under or pursuant to this Agreement directly or indirectly to Licensee and its Affiliates are intended to be, and shall otherwise be deemed by the Parties to be, for the purpose of Section 365(n) of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (such Title 11 being the “Bankruptcy Code”), licensees of “intellectual property” and rights to “intellectual property” as defined under Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code. Each Party hereby acknowledges that (i) copies of research data, (ii) laboratory or developmental samples, (iii) product samples, (iv) formulas, (v) laboratory notes and notebooks, (vi) data and results related to any and all testing and trials, (vii) regulatory filings and approvals, (viii) rights of reference in respect of regulatory filings and approvals, (ix) pre-trial research data and results, and (x) marketing, advertising and promotional materials, in each case, that relate to such intellectual property, are intended to constitute embodiments of such intellectual property pursuant to Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code, and each Licensor hereby grants to each Licensee a right of access and right to obtain possession of and to benefit from such embodiments prior to and in the event of any Rejection of this Agreement in any case or proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code to the fullest extent permitted by the Bankruptcy Code and other applicable law. Each Party agrees not to interfere with a Licensee’s exercise, pursuant to Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code, of rights and licenses to intellectual property licensed hereunder and embodiments thereof and agrees to use reasonable efforts, to assist the other to obtain such intellectual property and embodiments thereof in the possession or control of Third Parties as reasonably necessary for the other to exercise, pursuant to Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code, such rights and licenses. All of the rights of Licensee and its Affiliates will be deemed to exist prior to and immediately before the occurrence of any bankruptcy case in which either Licensor is a debtor. The Parties hereto agree that Licensee and its Affiliates, as licensees of rights granted in this Agreement, shall retain and may fully exercise all their rights and remedies and elections under the Bankruptcy Code to the fullest extent permitted by the Bankruptcy Code and other applicable law. The Parties hereto further agree that, in the event that any case or proceeding shall be instituted by or against Licensor under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise seeking to adjudicate either Licensor as bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, winding up, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking an entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee or other similar official for it or any substantial part of its property or it shall take any action to authorize any of the foregoing actions, Licensee and its Affiliates shall have the right to retain and enforce their rights under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge that the

rights, licenses and releases granted pursuant to this Agreement, to the maximum extent permitted by law, will not be affected by the Rejection of this Agreement and will continue subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In the event that this Agreement is intended to be rejected or deemed rejected under the Bankruptcy Code (a “Rejection”), the debtor Party will provide not less than twenty-one (21) days’ prior written notice of its intention to reject to the non-debtor Party. To the extent any rights under this Agreement are determined by a bankruptcy court not to be “intellectual property” rights for purposes of Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code, all of such rights will nonetheless remain vested in and fully retained by the non-debtor Party after any such Rejection to the fullest extent permitted by the Bankruptcy Code and other applicable law.

15.12 Headings; “Including”. Headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for purposes of convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement. As used herein, the words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall mean “including without limitation”.

15.13 Agreement Negotiated. The Parties are sophisticated and have consulted legal counsel with respect to this transaction. As a consequence, the Parties do not believe that the presumptions of any statutory or common law rule relating to the interpretation of contracts against the drafter of any particular clause should be applied in this case and therefore waive its effects.

15.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

15.15 Amendment. Any and all amendments or modifications to this Agreement, or a mutually agreed termination of this Agreement, must be made in writing and signed by all Parties. Any waiver of a provision of this Agreement must be in writing signed by the Party making the waiver.

15.16 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the JV Agreement and the other Ancillary Agreements, sets forth all of the covenants, promises, agreements, warranties, representations, conditions and understandings between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the Parties with respect to such subject matter. All rights granted in this Agreement are provided and taken subject to any and all security interests provided in the Ancillary Agreements or other agreements between or among the Parties.

15.17 Execution. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same agreement. Each of the Parties agrees that a signature affixed to a counterpart of this Agreement by or on behalf of it, him or her and delivered by facsimile or electronic means is intended to be its, his, or her signature and shall be valid, binding and enforceable against such Party.

15.18 Force Majeure. “Event of Force Majeure” means any circumstance or event which is unforeseen and beyond the reasonable control of a Party, and which is unavoidable notwithstanding the reasonable care of the Party affected, which includes to government actions, riots, wars, hostilities, terrorist attacks, public disturbances, failure or interruption of transportation or other utilities, epidemics, fires, floods, earthquakes, storms, tidal waves or other acts of nature. If one Party has been prevented from performing its responsibilities stipulated in this Agreement because of an Event of Force Majeure, it shall notify the other Party in writing within fifteen (15) days after the occurrence of such Event of Force Majeure, and all Parties shall use reasonable endeavors to mitigate damages, to the extent possible. If an Event of Force Majeure occurs, neither Party shall be responsible for any damage, increased costs or loss which the other Party may sustain by reason of such a failure or delay of performance, and such failure or delay shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement. A Party claiming inability to perform due to an Event of Force Majeure shall take appropriate means to minimize or remove the effects of the Event of Force Majeure and, within the shortest possible time, attempt to resume performance of the obligation affected by the Event of Force Majeure.
