ARTICLE III

CONSIDERATION

Section 3.1 Termination of Agreements.

(a) Effective on August 1, 2005, each Party hereby cancels and terminates the 2002 License Agreement; provided however, that the following provisions shall survive such termination only to the extent and in the manner set forth herein (the “Surviving Provisions”):

(i) Article XII shall survive (as amended below in Section 3.1(b) with respect to Buyer’s obligations thereunder); (ii) Section 6.4 shall survive, except that (1) it shall only have the effect it had as of January 31, 2002, which means that the word “aware” in such provision refers to “awareness” as of January 31, 2002 and the word “received” in such provision refers to receipt on or before January 31, 2002, and (2) it shall not apply to patents, patent applications, know-how or other intellectual property owned or licensed by Nartron Corporation or to notices received from Nartron Corporation, or to claims or assertions made by Nartron Corporation; and (iii) Articles I, IX, XI and Sections 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4, 8.5, 8.7, 8.8, 8.9 and 8.17, in each case only to the extent applicable to the provisions set forth in (i) and (ii) above. Exhibit E attached hereto sets forth a copy of items (i) and (ii) of the Surviving Provisions for reference purposes only. The Surviving Provisions shall not be deemed or considered to be obligations under this Agreement and, accordingly, Article VIII shall not apply to the Surviving Provisions. At the time of such termination, all rights granted by Buyer to EMD under the 2002 License Agreement shall revert back to Buyer. Without limiting the generality or applicability of Section 3.2, neither MSC nor EMD shall have any further obligation to pay the remaining license fee of $2,750,000 that would have otherwise been due under the 2002 License Agreement or any other license fees or other amounts payable thereunder.

(b) EMD hereby grants to Buyer a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, transferable sublicense (with the right to grant further sublicenses) (i) under the Licensed Patents (as defined in the 2002 License Agreement) to make, have made, use, sell, have sold, import and otherwise dispose of any products or services and (ii) to use the Licensed Know-How (as defined in the 2002 License Agreement) for any purpose; provided, however, (y) except as agreed to by Lear, the foregoing sublicense does not apply to “IFEST Products” (as defined in the Lear Agreements), and (z) to the extent the foregoing sublicense purports to grant rights greater than those granted to EMD under the 2002 License Agreement, such sublicense shall be limited to the rights actually granted to EMD thereunder. EMD and Buyer hereby amend the 2002 License Agreement as follows: (1) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the 2002 License Agreement, as of the Closing Date, EMD shall have no right to grant sublicenses thereunder (including Sublicense (as defined therein)), except for the sublicense granted pursuant to this Section 3.1(b); and (2) only with respect to Buyer’s obligations thereunder, Article XII shall not apply to any “Confidential Information” (as defined therein) that is included in the Assets, and shall not apply to any other “Confidential Information” unless Buyer knew or reasonably should have known that such “Confidential Information” was not included in the Assets. Except for Surviving Provisions, EMD shall not exercise any of its rights under the 2002 License Agreement other than as necessary to fulfill its remaining obligations to Lear under the Lear Agreements, as such obligations exist as of the Closing Date or as requested by Buyer after the Closing Date. Except for obligations set forth in this Section 3.1(b), Sellers have no liabilities or obligations to Buyer with respect to the sublicense granted in this Section 3.1(b).

(c) Each Party hereby cancels and terminates that certain Holland Lab Cost Sharing Agreement by and among Buyer and EMD, dated as of October 1, 2002 (the “Holland Agreement”). At the Closing, Sellers shall pay to Buyer the amount of $36,076 by corporate check, which amount the Parties agree equals the accrued and unpaid amounts owed by EMD under the Holland Agreement (“Holland Payment”).

(d) Each Party hereby cancels and terminates any other Contract between Buyer, on the one hand, and either or both of the Sellers, on the other hand, that is in effect as of the Closing Date, including the Confidentiality Agreement (other than with respect to confidential information of Lear provided to Buyer thereunder) and the agreements listed on Schedule 3.1(d) (“Other Agreements”).

Section 3.2 Releases.

(a) Each Party, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates and its and their predecessors, successors and assigns (each a “Releasor”), hereby releases and forever discharges, and covenants not to xxx, the other Parties, their Affiliates, their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys, agents, and representatives, and their respective predecessors, successors and assigns (each a “Released Party”), from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, obligations, damages and liabilities of any nature whatsoever arising on or before the Closing Date, whether in law or in equity, known or unknown, asserted or unasserted, absolute or contingent, accrued or unaccrued, liquidated or unliquidated, and whether due or to become due, including those arising under the Holland Agreement, the 2002 License Agreement and the Other Agreements, but excluding those arising under or pursuant to this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Documents or the Surviving Provisions.

(b) On August 1, 2005 or promptly thereafter, the Parties shall execute a written release substantially in the form of Section 3.2(a) with respect to the 2002 License Agreement for the period from the Closing Date through and including July 31, 2005 (but excluding the Surviving Provisions).

Section 3.3 Payment for Inventory and Tooling.

Buyer shall have no obligation to pay MSC for any Inventory and Tooling used, sold, leased, transferred or otherwise disposed of on or after March 1, 2006. For purposes of Section 2.3 and this Section 3.3, “use” shall not include testing or evaluation by TST of Inventory and Tooling for the purpose of determining whether they meet TST’s requirements at the time of such testing or evaluation.

(b) Within five business days after the end of each calendar month through February 2006, Buyer shall provide notice to MSC of all Tooling and Inventory used, sold, leased, transferred or otherwise disposed of by Buyer during such month and the amount required to be paid by Buyer pursuant to Section 3.3(a) for such Tooling and Inventory. Concurrently with the provision of such notice, Buyer shall pay such amount to MSC in accordance with MSC’s reasonable instructions.

(c) Upon notice to Buyer by March 31, 2006, Sellers, at their sole cost and expense, shall have the right to conduct a single examination of the books and records of Buyer and all

then-remaining Inventory and Tooling, in each case, for the purpose of verifying the amounts paid to MSC under this Section 3.3. Such examination shall be conducted at Buyer’s facility during normal business hours by employees of Sellers. If such an examination reveals that Buyer has underpaid Sellers by more than 5%, Buyer shall immediately pay to Sellers the amount equal to such underpayment plus Sellers’ reasonable expenses in conducting such examination (but only up to $5,000).

Section 3.4 Xxxx Agreements. The Parties shall cooperate to facilitate and coordinate the completion of Sellers’ obligations to Xxxx. As requested by Sellers, Buyer will provide reasonable access to lab and testing equipment, and other equipment approved by Buyer, necessary to support Seller’s obligations under the Xxxx Agreements. As requested by Buyer, Sellers shall provide reasonable cooperation and support to Buyer in its efforts to negotiate new contractual arrangements with Xxxx. None of the Parties shall communicate with Xxxx in a way that intentionally interferes with or is intentionally inconsistent with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 3.5 Allocation of Consideration. Within 120 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide notice to Sellers of Buyer’s proposed determination of the value of the consideration given by Buyer hereunder and Buyer’s proposed allocation of such consideration among the Assets. Within 60 days after its receipt of Buyer’s proposal, Sellers shall notify Buyer of their acceptance or rejection of Buyer’s proposal. If Sellers reject Buyer’s proposal, then the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on such value and allocation. If the Parties agree on such value and allocation (either by Sellers’ acceptance of Buyer’s proposal or subsequent negotiations), such value and allocation shall be binding on the Parties, who shall file all tax returns (including Form 8594 Asset Acquisition Statement) consistent therewith and the Parties hereby agree not to take any positions, for tax or other purposes, inconsistent with such value and allocation. If the Parties do not reach agreement on such value and allocation within 210 days after the Closing Date, each of the Parties shall make its own determination regarding such value and allocation, and may file all tax returns in any manner it so desires.

ARTICLE VI

COVENANTS

Buyer and Sellers agree to the following with respect to the period following the Closing:

Section 6.1 General. In case at any time after the Closing Date any further action is reasonably necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, each of the Parties will take such further action (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as another Party reasonably may request. The requesting Party shall reimburse the other Parties for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for taking such further actions.

Section 6.2 Post-Closing Consents; Non-Assignable Contracts.

(a) Except with respect to the NDAs, each of the Sellers and Buyer will use commercially reasonable efforts after the Closing Date to obtain all consents, approvals or authorizations of any third parties that are required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including with respect to the assignment of Assumed Contracts), provided that neither Sellers nor Buyer will be required to incur any out-of-pocket expenses or liabilities in connection with such activities.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, to the extent that the assignment of an Assumed Contract by Sellers to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement would constitute a breach of the Assumed Contract or is otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions thereof, nothing in this Agreement will constitute a transfer or an attempted transfer thereof, unless and until the necessary consent or approval is obtained; provided however, the foregoing shall not cause any NDA to cease being an Assumed Contract.

(c) In the event that any Assumed Contract is not assigned as a result of Section 6.2(b), until such Assumed Contract is assigned, Sellers will (i) pay to Buyer all payments received in respect of such Assumed Contract, except to the extent such payments are payments for Accounts Receivable, (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to Buyer the benefits of the applicable Assumed Contract, (iii) cooperate in any reasonable and lawful arrangement designed to provide such benefits to Buyer, and (iv) enforce at the request and expense of Buyer, for the account of Buyer, any rights of the Seller arising from any such Assumed Contract.

Section 6.3 Proprietary Information. Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to retain any copies or embodiments of the Intellectual Property Assets and, to the extent either Seller discovers such copies or embodiments in its possession or under its control, it shall promptly provide all such copies or embodiments to Buyer. Except as otherwise required by law or by a court of competent jurisdiction, each Seller agrees that from and after the Closing Date it shall hold in confidence and not use, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have all officers, directors and personnel who continue after the Closing Date to be employed by it or its subsidiaries to hold in confidence and not use, all knowledge and information of a secret or confidential nature with respect or relating to the Assets, including the Intellectual Property Assets, or the Inventory and Tooling and not to disclose, publish or make use of the same without the prior written consent of Buyer, except to the extent that such information shall have become public knowledge other than by breach of this Agreement by Sellers.

Section 6.4 Accounts Receivable Collection Procedures.

(a) Because the Buyer may develop relationships with customers of the EMD Business, Buyer will assist Sellers in collecting the Accounts Receivable as set forth in this Section 6.4. As requested by Sellers, Buyer shall use the normal, historical accounts receivable collection practices used by Buyer, or, at Buyer’s option, by Sellers, with Sellers’ full cooperation during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending at the close of business on February 28, 2006 (the “Collection Period”) in order to collect the Accounts Receivable for the benefit of Sellers; provided however, that Buyer shall not be required to commence litigation against any Accounts Receivable debtor, turn any Account Receivable over to a collection agent or incur any out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the collection activities, other than nominal expenses, or take any other action that Buyer determines in its reasonable judgment to be detrimental to its current or potential customer relationships; and provided further, that Sellers shall not be prohibited from commencing litigation against any Accounts Receivable debtor or turning any Account Receivable over to a collection agent.

(b) During the Collection Period, each of Buyer and Sellers shall report on a monthly basis, within ten days after the end of each month, to each other, the aggregate amount of all

Accounts Receivable collected during such period, which report shall identify all Accounts Receivable of Sellers collected. To the extent Buyer receives any moneys in payment of the Accounts Receivable, whether during or after the Collection Period, Buyer shall remit all such payments received to Sellers within five business days after such receipt. Upon the expiration of the Collection Period, Buyer may cease all collection activities, and upon ceasing collection activities, Buyer shall turn over the billing records for any unpaid Sellers’ Account Receivable to whomever Sellers shall direct.

(c) In the event that Sellers receive any payment in respect of Buyer’s accounts receivable, Sellers shall remit such payment to Buyer within five business days after such receipt.

(d) If, during the Collection Period, Buyer or Sellers receive payment from any customer of the EMD Business where such customer has not specified whether such payment is intended for Buyer or Sellers (e.g., by reference to an invoice number), Buyer and Sellers shall jointly contact such customer to determine the intended recipient.

Section 6.5 Litigation Support. In the event and for so long as either Party is actively contesting or defending against any third- party charge, complaint, action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, claim or demand in connection with any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act or transaction involving the Assets or the Inventory and Tooling, the other Parties will reasonably cooperate with the contesting or defending Party and its counsel in the contest or defense at the sole cost and expense of the contesting or defending Party (unless such contesting or defending Party is entitled to indemnification therefor under Article VIII in which case, the costs and expense will be borne by the Parties as set forth in Article VIII).

Section 6.6 Records and Documents. Without limiting the effect of Section 6.3, Sellers will preserve and keep all of their respective books and records relating to the EMD Business, the Assets and the Inventory and Tooling (which, for the avoidance of doubt, excludes the Asset Records), and the Buyer will keep the Asset Records, for a period of at least three years following the Closing Date. After such three-year period, each Party will provide at least 10 days prior written notice to the other Parties of its intent to dispose of any such books and records, and such other Parties will be given the opportunity, at their cost and expense, to remove and retain all or any part of such books and records as they may select, except that Sellers shall have no right to remove or retain any part of such books or records to the extent they comprise Intellectual Property Assets. During such three-year period, duly authorized representatives of a Party will, upon reasonable notice, have reasonable access during normal business hours to examine, inspect and copy such books and records held by the other Parties.

Section 6.7 Intellectual Property; Use of Licensed Marks. Each Seller hereby grants to Buyer an irrevocable (only during the Use Period, except as set forth below), non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use the Licensed Marks in connection with Buyer’s business related to the Assets and the Inventory and Tooling during the 24 month period following the Closing Date (“Use Period”). Buyer shall use the Licensed Marks in a manner consistent with (i) the manner in which Sellers used the Licensed Marks in connection with the business of either Seller in connection with the Assets or the Inventory and Tooling prior to the Closing and (ii) Sellers’

applicable standards of use with respect to the Licensed Marks as set forth on Exhibit F hereto. Each Seller will not unreasonably refuse to grant any request for a waiver made by Buyer with respect to such standards of use. Upon receipt of written consent from MSC, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, Buyer shall have the right to grant sublicenses under the foregoing license to its suppliers, distributors and other third parties for the purpose of facilitating such business. All use of the Licensed Marks by Buyer under the foregoing license shall inure to the benefit of Sellers. If Buyer does not cure its material breach of any of its obligations under this Section 6.7 within 30 days after receiving written notice thereof from Sellers, in addition to any other rights or remedies Sellers may have, the license granted pursuant to this Section 6.7 shall automatically and immediately terminate; provided, however, that upon a subsequent material breach resulting from the same or substantially the same behavior that caused a material breach of which Buyer has previously received notice, Sellers shall have the right to terminate the license granted pursuant to this Section 6.7 upon written notice to Buyer.

Section 6.8 Non-Competition. Each Seller agrees that, for a period commencing on the Closing Date and terminating five years after the Closing Date, neither it nor any of its subsidiaries will engage, directly or indirectly, in any activities anywhere in the world in the design, development, manufacture, license, sale or distribution of any products involving or relating to capacitive technology or Buyer’s field-effect technology or any other technology pertaining to sensing the presence of a person or object (“Restricted Activity”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the acquisition by a Seller of a business or other entity engaged in a Restricted Activity (whether by asset acquisition, equity acquisition, merger, consolidation or otherwise) shall not be a violation of the provisions of this Agreement so long as such the aggregate revenue of such business or entity for Restricted Activities does not exceed 10% of the total revenues of such business or entity, as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied.

Section 6.9 Employees.

(a) Sellers may terminate the employment of some or all of its employees who performed work related to the EMD Business. Although Buyer may subsequently hire some or all of such employees, Buyer has no obligation to do so and Buyer is not assuming any of Sellers’ obligations with respect to any of Sellers’ employees. Sellers will not take any action to prevent (including by enforcing restrictive covenants) any of their current or former employees (as of the Closing Date) who performed work related to the EMD Business from being employed by Buyer or from performing services for Buyer as consultants or independent contractors; provided, however, Buyer will not hire the MSC employees having the title of Project Leader- Engineering or Electrical Engineer who are required by Sellers to perform their remaining obligations under the Xxxx Agreements, or encourage either of them to leave EMD’s employment before August 1, 2005 (but the foregoing does not prohibit Buyer from negotiating with such individuals for employment after August 1, 2005). Unless Sellers otherwise agree in writing, Sellers will not have any liability for consulting services provided by Sellers’ employees or consultants in connection herewith.

(b) At Buyer’s reasonable request and expense, Sellers shall enforce for the benefit of Buyer any rights Seller may have with respect to Sellers’ current or former employees (as of the Closing Date) that are related to the Assets, the Inventory and Tooling or the EMD Business, including confidentiality obligations, restrictive covenants and obligations to assign Intellectual Property.

Section 6.10 Sellers’ Product Warranties. For products sold by Sellers prior to the Closing Date in connection with the EMD Business, Buyer will perform, at Sellers’ expense, reasonable repair or replacement services for Sellers, consistent with customer needs, for the purpose of enabling Sellers to fulfill their warranty obligations with respect thereto. Buyer’s cost of any such replacement will be reimbursed by Sellers, and Buyer will perform such repair services at reasonable rates to be agreed upon by the Parties from time to time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers shall have no obligation to pay or reimburse Buyer for repair or replacement services for any product sold by Buyer to Sellers before the Closing Date to the extent that Buyer would be obligated, but for Section 3.1(d) or Section 3.2, to provide such repair or replacement services pursuant to a written warranty made by Buyer with respect to such product (or component thereof), it being acknowledged that Buyer’s obligation under any such warranty will be determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of such warranty. Buyer will have no obligation to perform warranty services under this Section 6.10 after the third anniversary of the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Article VIII, Buyer’s aggregate liability to Sellers for any Losses that result from, or that exist or arise due to, any such services performed by Buyer shall be limited to the amounts actually received by Buyer for the specific services resulting in, creating the existence of or giving rise to such Losses. For the purposes of determining which products are sold by Sellers prior to the Closing, from and after the Closing, Buyer shall indelibly xxxx all products sold by Buyer with a date of shipment.

Section 6.11 Third-Party Warranties. To the extent legally permissible, Sellers will pass-through to Buyer the benefit of any third-party warranties that are applicable to the Assets or the Inventory and Tooling. To the extent that Buyer receive proceeds from the benefit of such third-party warranties, such proceeds shall offset any liability of Sellers otherwise owed to Buyer arising out of the circumstances giving rise to such third-party warranty claim.

Section 6.12 Nartron Patents. Buyer covenants (1) that it has acquired a license under Nartron’s U.S. Patents No. 4,731,548, No. 4,758,735, No. 4,831,279, No. 5,087,825 and No. 5,796,183, and that, therefore, Buyer, Sellers and all of the customers of Buyer or Sellers are also licensed under these patents with respect to any product acquired originally from Buyer; and (2) that no customer of Buyer, including Sellers, can be liable to Nartron for infringement of the foregoing Nartron patents based on a claim that a product infringes one or more of the foregoing Nartron patents if the claim depends on the product incorporating an Integrated Circuit (IC) originally acquired from Buyer for use with a touch sensor.

(a) No party hereto will be liable for any Claim for indemnification under this Article VIII unless written notice of a Claim for indemnification is delivered by the party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) to the Party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period, if any, set forth in Section 8.1. If any third party notifies the Indemnified Party with respect to any matter which

may give rise to a Claim for indemnification (a “Third Party Claim”) against the Indemnifying Party under this Article VIII, then the Indemnified Party will notify the Indemnifying Party promptly thereof in writing and in any event within 15 days after receiving notice from a third party; provided that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party will relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced thereby. All notices given pursuant to this Section 8.4 will describe with reasonable specificity the Third Party Claim and the basis of the Indemnified Party’s Claim for indemnification. Once the Indemnified Party has given notice of the Third Party Claim to the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent desired, to assume the defense thereof with counsel of its choice. However, the Indemnified Party may continue to participate in (but not control) such defense at its own cost and expense, which costs and expenses shall not be subject to the indemnification provisions in this Article VIII unless the Indemnifying Party does not actually assume the defense thereof following notice of such election. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will have the right to undertake the defense of such Third Party Claim, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing (subject to the limitations on the Indemnifying Party’s obligations to indemnify otherwise set forth in this Article VIII and in the definition of Losses in Section 1.1, and to the right of the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of or opposition to such Third Party Claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final determination thereof).

(b) Neither the Indemnified Party nor the Indemnifying Party will consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement or compromise of any Third Party Claim that might give rise to liability of another Party, in each case without such Party’s consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party may settle or compromise a Third Party Claim, without the consent of the Indemnified Party, if (i) such settlement or compromise is made only for monetary consideration, and (ii) all required payments are paid entirely by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to settle any such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnified Party refuses to consent to such compromise or settlement, then the liability of the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party will be limited to the amount offered by the Indemnifying Party in compromise or settlement

Section 8.5 Mitigation and Limitations. Each Party agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Loss which forms the basis of a Claim hereunder. All Losses recoverable by an Indemnified Party shall be net of insurance proceeds actually recovered by or on behalf of such Indemnified Party; provided however, nothing herein shall require any Party to insure against, make insurance claims for or other otherwise obtain insurance proceeds for any such Losses.. All Losses recoverable by an Indemnified Party shall be net of the amount of any tax reduction realized by the Indemnified Party as a result of tax benefits resulting directly from the matter giving rise to such Losses; provided however, nothing herein shall require any Party to seek or obtain any such tax reductions. If an Indemnifying Party makes a payment in respect of Losses of an Indemnified Party, and if at any time subsequent to such payment the amount of such Losses is reduced by recovery, settlement, or otherwise under or pursuant to any insurance coverage, or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement, or payment by or against any other person or entity (excluding any taxing authority), the amount of such reduction, less any costs, expenses, premiums, or taxes incurred in connection therewith will promptly be repaid by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party; provided however, nothing herein shall require any Party to seek or obtain any such reductions.

Section 8.6 Exclusive Remedy. The Parties agree that, from and after the Closing Date, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, with respect to any breach or violation (other than any willful, intentional or fraudulent breach or violation) of any representation or warranty or any covenant, obligation or other term set forth in this Agreement, the only relief available to the party indemnified for such breach in respect of such breach shall be as set forth in this Article VIII.
