If the requirements specification is not acceptable to ARM then ARM shall recommend the changes to the requirements

5

specification that would make it acceptable to ARM. If, after ARM has approved the requirements specification, LGS requires that the requirements specification be revised for any reason, LGS shall be liable for the cost of any work required to comply with such revisions. ARM shall review any such requirement in good faith and shall deliver a reasonable quote for the performance of the additional work, to LGS, based on ARM’s then standard scale of consulting charges. Where ARM provides a device specification to LGS, LGS shall review the device specification and shall report, to ARM, in writing, within three(3) weeks of receipt of the device specification whether or not it is approved (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) and if not approved the reasons for withholding approval. If the device specification is not approved by LGS because it fails to comply with LGS requirements specification as approved in Clause 3.2 then, ARM shall revise the device specification accordingly and resubmit it to LGS. This process shall be repeated until the device specification is approved by LGS. If, after LGS has approved the device specification, LGS requires that the device specification be revised for any reason, LGS shall be liable for the cost of any work required to comply with such revisions.

LGS shall complete the checking of the behavioural model within thirty (30) days of its receipt from ARM, and upon completion of the checking shall promptly report, to ARM, in writing whether or not the behavioural model complies with the device specification. If LGS demonstrates that the behavioural model fails to comply with the device specification, ARM shall be responsible for Identifying the cause of such failure and shall use reasonable efforts to correct the problem and expedite the delivery to LGS of a corrected behavioural model. The parties shall repeat the above process until the behavioural model is approved by LGS. If, after LGS has approved the behavioural model, LGS requires that the behavioural model be revised for any reason, LGS shall be liable for the cost of any work required to comply with such revisions. ARM shall review any such requirement in good faith and shall deliver a reasonable quote for the performance of the additional work, to LGS, based on ARM’s standard scale of consulting charges. Where ARM is delivering layout to LGS, ARM shall;

	(i)		perform an LVS check in respect of such layout. The LVS check shall be deemed complete when either; (i) the LVS check indicates an exact match between the layout and the schematic netlist; or (ii) where all discrepancies between the layout and the schematic netlist have been reviewed by the parties with the foundry in good faith and a waiver agreed between ARM, LGS and the foundry;
	(ii)		perform layout simulation and provide test vectors for layout verification; and
	(iii)		perform a design rule check in respect of such layout by reference to the DRC file provided by LGS (where, for the purposes of this Clause 3.5(iii), LGS shall mean LGS or LGS chosen foundry, as appropriate) to ARM. The layout delivered to LGS by ARM shall be deemed to comply with the LGS design rules if the layout passes the DRC provided by LGS. The layout shall be deemed to pass the DRC when either, (i) The DRC log generated by

6

running the DRC on the layout reports no breach or breaches of the LGS design rules; or (ii) where all reported breach or breaches have been reviewed by the parties and where appropriate the LGS chosen foundry in good faith and a waiver agreed between ARM, LGS and the foundry. ARM shall have no responsibility for any inconsistency between the DRC file provided by LGS and LGS corresponding design rules nor shall ARM be responsible for any failure by the DRC provided by LGS to comprehensively test for compliance with the LGS corresponding design rules.

3.6		Following delivery of any complete layout, by ARM, to LGS, LGS shall manufacture the ARM7201TDSP Device. With support from ARM, LGS shall test the prototypes of the ARM7201TDSP Device to determine whether or not the functionality and performance of the prototypes conforms to the device specification approved by LGS in accordance with the provisions of Clause 3.3. ARM shall continue to support LGS in the testing of the ARM7201TDSP Device until such device is approved by LGS. Upon completion of the testing of the prototypes, LGS shall promptly report to ARM, in writing, whether or not the prototypes comply with the device specification and in the event that LGS believes that the prototypes do not comply with the device specification, LGS shall provide ARM with details of such non-compliance. ARM shall be responsible for identifying the cause of such non-compliance and shall use reasonable endeavours to amend the layout such that revised prototypes can be manufactured which do comply with the device specification. The parties shall repeat the above process until the prototypes are approved by LGS.

If the Specification is not approved by LGS, ARM shall revise the Specification accordingly and resubmit it to LGS. This process shall be repeated until the Specification is approved by LGS. If, after LGS has approved the Specification, LGS requires that the Specification be revised for any reason, LGS shall be liable for the cost of any work required to comply with such revisions. ARM shall review any such requirement in good faith and shall deliver a reasonable quote for the performance of the additional work, to LGS, based on ARM’s then standard scale of consulting charges.
4.3		Within forty (40) days of receipt of each Beta Release by LGS, LGS shall test the Beta Release and report any bugs or non-compliance with the Specification to ARM. If any bugs or non-compliance are reported, ARM shall revise the Beta Release accordingly and resubmit it to LGS within twenty (20) days of receipt of the non-compliance report regarding the Beta Release. This process shall be repeated until the Beta Release is approved by LGS, provided, however, that the total period of time for such repeat shall be limited to eighty (80) days. It LGS fails to test a Beta Release and deliver a report of non-compliance to ARM within forty (40) days of receipt of the Beta Release, then such Beta Release shall be deemed to be accepted by LGS.
4.4		Within forty (40) days of receipt of the Final Release by LGS, LGS shall provide written confirmation of approval of the Final Release to ARM. If any bugs or

7

		non-compliance are reported. ARM shall revise the Final Release accordingly and resubmit it to LGS within twenty (20) days of receipt of the non-compliance report regarding the Final Release. This process shall be repeated until the Final Release is approved by LGS, provided, however, that the total period of time for such repeat shall be limited to sixty (60) days. If LGS fails to-deliver confirmation of approval to ARM within forty (40) days of receipt of the Final Release by LGS, then the Final Release shall be deemed to be approved by LGS.
