The Company and Purchaser agree to file all Tax Returns in a manner consistent with this Section 1.11 and the Allocation and will not, in connection with the filing of such Tax Returns, make any allocation that is contrary to the Allocation unless required to do so by applicable Law and after prior written notice thereof to the other such Party.

(b) The Company agrees that during the Development Phase, the Company will, as soon as possible after discovery (but at least five Business Days prior to the Product Acceptance Date), deliver to Purchaser written notice (each a “Disclosure Schedule Update”) of any amendment of or supplement to the Disclosure Schedule to (i) reflect any event occurring or fact, circumstance or condition arising after the date of this Agreement that, if such event occurred or such fact, circumstance or condition arose before or on the date of this Agreement would have been required to be disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule or (ii) correct any existing inaccuracy or deficiency in the Disclosure Schedule based on any event that occurred or fact, circumstance or condition existed before or on the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that any amendment or supplement pursuant to this Section 5.3(b) shall not be deemed to have modified the Disclosure Schedule or qualified the representations and warranties in Article III for purposes of Purchaser’s indemnification rights under Article VI.

Section 5.4 Additional Covenants and Agreements.

(a) Non-Solicitation. The Parties agree that, during the Development Phase and for [*] thereafter, neither Party shall, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, solicit or attempt to solicit any employee of the other Party (or any subsidiary of such Party) to terminate his, her or its relationship with such Party in order to become an employee of any other person or entity (including, without limitation, Purchaser on the one hand and the Company on the other hand); provided, however, that general advertising and participation at job fairs and recruiting workshops shall not be deemed to violate this Section 5.4(a) to the extent not directed specifically at the employees, consultants or independent contractors of Purchaser or the Company, as applicable.

(b) Further Assurances. After the Closing and the Product Acceptance Date, each Party will take such further actions and execute and deliver all further documents as are reasonably necessary to (a) transfer and convey the Closing Assets and the Product Acceptance Assets, as applicable, to Purchaser on the terms herein contained, including, without limitation, with respect to implementing the separation of the Product Assets from the Excluded Assets, which cost and expense shall be borne equally by the Company and Purchaser except as set forth in this Agreement or other Seller Document, and performing all activities associated therewith to the extent necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and (b) consummate the Contemplated Transactions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, within five (5) days after the Closing Date and the Product Acceptance Date, the Company will cooperate with Purchaser to cause the Software included in the Closing Assets and Product Acceptance Assets, respectively, to be transferred and conveyed to Purchaser. Purchaser will be responsible for the registration and/or recordation of the transfers and assignments of the Product Owned Intellectual Property Assets, and the out-of-pocket fees paid to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or any other government intellectual property office in connection therewith shall be borne by Purchaser.

(c) Books and Records. The Company and its Subsidiaries and Purchaser and its Subsidiaries will each retain and make their respective books and records (including work papers in the possession of their respective accountants) with respect to the Product Assets available for inspection and copy by the other Party or its duly appointed representatives (reasonably acceptable to the other Party) for reasonable business purposes at reasonable times during normal business hours for a period consistent with such Party’s record-retention policies and practices to enable the other Party to prepare financial statements or Tax returns or deal with Tax audits.

(d) Litigation Support. If any Party is actively contesting or defending against any action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, compliant, claim or demand in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, then, for so long as such contest or defense continues, each Party will, at the sole cost and expense of the contesting or defending Party (unless the contesting or defending Party has a right to indemnification therefor under Article VI in which case Article VI, and not this Section 5.4(d), shall govern), (a) reasonably cooperate with the contesting or defending Party and its counsel in the contest or defense and (b) make reasonably available such personnel and provide such testimony and access to its books as is reasonably necessary or reasonably requested by the contesting or defending Party in connection with such contest or defense (in all cases after reasonable notice and during normal business hours).

(e) Transition. During the Development Phase, the Company shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in its efforts to continue and maintain for Purchaser’s benefit those business relationships of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries and related to the Product Assets with any licensor, customer, supplier or other Person having a business relationship with the Company or any Subsidiary and related to the Product Assets. During the Development Phase and continuing through the one year anniversary of the completion of the

Development Phase, the Company shall refer to Purchaser all inquiries relating to the Product Assets.

(f) Payment of Transfer Charges.

(i) Except as specifically set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company and Purchaser will share equally all Taxes, conveyance fees, title application fees, registration fees, recording charges and other similar out-of-pocket fees and charges (including any interest and penalties) incurred in connection with consummation of the Contemplated Transactions (“Transfer Charges”). The Company will, at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and similar documentation with respect to such Transfer Charges, and the Company will remit or cause to be remitted any Transfer Charges shown as due on such Tax Returns. Purchaser will indemnify and reimburse the Company for one-half of the amount of Transfer Charges paid by the Company with such Tax Returns within ten (10) Business Days of the due date of such Transfer Charges. If required by applicable Law, the Parties will, and will cause their Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

(ii) Purchaser shall provide the Company with an exemption certificate for any tangible personal property included in the Product Assets which is eligible for any sales Tax exemption. For sales Tax purposes, Purchaser and the Company shall use the same allocation of the Purchase Price for any such Product Assets that are subject to sales Tax as is set out in Exhibit C. The Company shall arrange for electronic delivery to Purchaser or its designated Affiliates of all Product Owned Intellectual Property Assets at Closing and at the Product Acceptance Date, as and when required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and Purchaser shall acquire no ownership interest in any tangible embodiment of such assets.

(g) Filing of Tax Returns. Except as provided in Section 5.4(f), Purchaser will timely prepare and file or will cause to be timely prepared and filed all Tax Returns (other than Tax Returns relating to income Taxes) with respect to the Closing Assets that are due after the Closing. In each case, Purchaser shall pay the Taxes due in respect of such Tax Returns.

(h) Payments of Receivables. If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries receives any payment relating to any Receivable after the Closing, such Person will promptly endorse (where necessary) and deliver to Purchaser all cash, checks and other documents received on account of such Receivable and will advise Purchaser (promptly upon the discovery or awareness of the Company or its Affiliate) of any counterclaims or off-sets that may arise after the Closing with respect to such Receivable.

(i) Confidentiality.

(i) Confidential Information. Each party and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Receiving Party,” as applicable) expressly acknowledges that in connection with this Agreement the other party and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Disclosing Party,” as applicable) have licensed, disclosed or may disclose or make available information and material relating to the Disclosing Party’s business or technology which is confidential or proprietary in

nature (including, without limitation, information that embodies or relates to technology, any other technical, business, financial, customer information, product development plans, supplier information, forecasts, strategies and other confidential information) which to the extent disclosed to the Receiving Party is hereinafter referred to as “Confidential Information” of the Disclosing Party. The Company acknowledges that the Product Owned Intellectual Property and the Product Assets will be the Confidential Information of Purchaser upon their transfer to Purchaser hereunder.

(ii) Treatment of Confidential Information. The Receiving Party will: (a) take commercially reasonable precautions to protect such Confidential Information consistent with all precautions the Receiving Party usually employs with respect to its own comparable confidential materials; (b) except as expressly provided in this Agreement, not disclose any such Confidential Information to any third Person, except under terms and conditions (including confidentiality, use, and disclosure restrictions) used by the Receiving Party to protect its own confidential or proprietary information of a similar nature in the Ordinary Course of Business; and (c) not use or disclose such Confidential Information except as necessary to exercise its rights and perform its obligations under this Agreement. The Receiving Party shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any Representative who does not have a need for such information and the Receiving Party shall advise its Representatives who might have access to Confidential Information of the confidential nature thereof.

(iii) Exclusions. Without granting any right or license, the Disclosing Party agrees that Section 5.4(i)(ii) will not apply with respect to any information that the Receiving Party can document: (a) is or becomes generally available to the public through no improper action by the Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates, agents, consultants or employees; (b) is known by the Receiving Party at the time of receiving such information; (c) was rightfully disclosed to the Receiving Party by a third Person provided the Receiving Party complies with restrictions imposed by the third Person; or (d) was independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party. The Receiving Party, with prior written notice to the Disclosing Party, may disclose such Confidential Information to the minimum extent possible that is required to be disclosed in response to a valid order of a court or to a governmental entity or agency, or pursuant to the lawful requirement or request of a governmental entity or agency, provided that reasonable measures are taken to guard against further disclosure (including without limitation, seeking appropriate confidential treatment or a protective order, or assisting the Disclosing Party to do so) and has allowed the Disclosing Party to participate in any proceeding that requires the disclosure.

(j) Deletion/Destruction of Confidential Information. Following the Product Acceptance Date and upon its receipt of written instructions from Purchaser, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries will use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly delete or destroy all of the assets listed in an Asset Schedule or in any Asset Schedule Update (to the extent such assets are (i) deemed to be Confidential Information and (ii) capable of being deleted or destroyed) (the “Confidential Assets”); provided, however, that the Company and each of its Subsidiaries shall first ensure that it has delivered all such Confidential Assets to Purchaser. Upon its completion of the deletion or destruction of the Confidential Assets in

accordance with this Section 5.4(j), the Company will promptly deliver a certificate of destruction to the Purchaser.

(k) Residuals. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, each party and its Subsidiaries shall be free, and the Disclosing Party hereby grants to the Receiving Party the right, to use for any purpose, the Residuals resulting from (i) access to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party received under this Agreement or resulting from work with the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party; or (ii) access to confidential or proprietary information of the Company or its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date by the Transferred Employees or Transferred Consultants or any other former employees or consultants of the Company or its Subsidiaries that are later hired by Purchaser. “Residuals” means information retained in the unaided memory of an individual who has had access to confidential or proprietary information (including Confidential Information) without conscious attempt by such individual to memorize such information. The foregoing does not constitute a license of Intellectual Property Rights by either Party.

(l) Audit. As soon as reasonably practicable following a written request delivered to Purchaser, Purchaser agrees to provide, solely to a nationally recognized certified public accountant firm appointed by the Company and reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, records showing the sales or other disposition of the Products, or derivatives of the Product, to [*] or an original equipment manufacturer or an original design manufacturer solely for the purpose of verifying the achievement of the Product Acceptance Milestone Event or the [*] License Event; provided, that such nationally recognized certified public accountant firm (i) shall enter into a non-disclosure agreement in a form reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, containing obligations of confidentially and non-use with respect to Purchaser’s confidential information and (ii) shall only disclose its conclusions to the Company (and not the underlying records or data reviewed) regarding the achievement of the Product Acceptance Milestone Event or the [*] License Event, as applicable. Such examination shall be made at the expense of the Company.

(m) NRE Payments. Subject to the set-off rights set forth in Section 6.7, within five Business Days of Purchaser’s receipt of the non-recurring engineering payments by [*] which arise upon the achievement of full performance compliance of the [*] portion of the [*] Letter of Intent (the “[*] NRE Payments”), Purchaser shall pay to the Company, by wire transfer to a bank account designated in writing by the Company to Purchaser, in immediately available funds in United States Dollars, such [*] NRE Payments.

(n) Acceptance of NRE Payments. Purchaser agrees that it will not take any affirmative action to forgo, or materially delay, receipt of the [*] NRE Payments.

ARTICLE VI

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 6.1 Indemnification Obligations of the Company. The Company covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser and its Affiliates, directors, managers, officers, employees, equityholders, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Purchaser

Indemnitees”) harmless from and against all losses, Liabilities, demands, claims, actions or causes of action, regulatory, legislative or judicial proceedings or investigations, assessments, levies, fines, penalties, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’, accountants’, investigators’, and experts’ fees and expenses) incurred in the defense or investigation of any claim (“Damages”) sustained or incurred by any Purchaser Indemnitee arising from:

(a) (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the Company’s representations and warranties in this Agreement as of the Closing Date or (ii) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the Company’s representations and warranties in this Agreement as the same relate to the Product Assets then being Transferred as of the Product Acceptance Date (except for representations or warranties that relate to a specific date or time, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such date or time);

(b) any breach by the Company of, or failure by the Company to comply with, any of the covenants or obligations of the Company under this Agreement; or

Section 6.2 Limitations on Indemnification Obligations of the Company. The obligations of the Company pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.1 are subject to the following limitations:

(a) The Company’s representations and warranties in Article III, and the Purchaser Indemnitees’ corresponding rights to indemnification pursuant to Section 6.1(a), will survive the Closing (and none will merge into any instrument of conveyance) until the date that is the earlier of (i) 20 months after the Closing Date or (ii) 12 months after the Product Acceptance Date; provided, however, that if, at any time prior to the expiration of the representations and warranties in Article III, any Purchaser Indemnitee (acting in good faith) delivers to the Company a Claim Notice alleging the existence of an inaccuracy in or a breach of any of the representations and warranties and asserting a claim for recovery under Section 6.1(a) for which the Purchaser Indemnitee reasonably expects to incur Damages, then the claim asserted in such notice shall survive until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved. If the claim with respect to which such Claim Notice is given has been definitively withdrawn or resolved in favor of the Company, the Purchaser Indemnitee will promptly so notify the Company.

(b) The Purchaser Indemnitees will not be entitled to recover under Section 6.1(a) for inaccuracies, breaches or alleged inaccuracies or breaches of the representations and warranties in Article III until the total amount that Purchaser Indemnitees would recover under Section 6.1(a) but for this Section 6.2(b) exceeds $50,000 (the “Company Basket”). If such amount exceeds the Company Basket, then the Purchaser Indemnitees will be entitled to recover all Damages in excess of the Company Basket.

(c) Except with respect to claims arising from (i) fraud, (ii) any Retained Liability or Excluded Asset, (iii) any breach by the Company of, or failure by the Company to comply with the covenants or obligations of the Company under Section 5.4(i), (iv) any breach by the Company of, or failure by the Company to comply with the covenants or obligations of the Company under Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.4(b) or 5.4(j) or (v) any inaccuracy of or breach of any of the Company’s representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.2, 3.4, 3.7 or 3.15 (subsections (i) through (iii), collectively, the “Critical Claims”, and subsections (iv) and (v), collectively, the “Fundamental Claims”), (a) prior to the funding of the Escrow Account in accordance with Section 1.10 (or in the event that the Escrow Account is never funded pursuant to the terms of this Agreement), the aggregate Liability of the Company under this Article VI shall not exceed $2,000,000, and (b) in the event the Escrow Account is funded in accordance with Section 1.10, the Purchaser Indemnitees will only be entitled to assert claims under this Article VI against the Escrow Account up to the aggregate Escrow Amount, which, except as otherwise set forth in this Section 6.2(c), will represent the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser Indemnitees for any claims under this Agreement. The aggregate Liability of the Company under this Article VI for Fundamental Claims shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Purchase Price paid to the Company by Purchaser; provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 6.2(c) only, the full Escrow Amount will be deemed actually paid by Purchaser upon its deposit with the Escrow Agent, irrespective of any subsequent deduction or release therefrom. There shall be no limit on the aggregate Liability of the Company under this Article VI for Critical Claims.

(d) The representations and warranties made by the Company, and the covenants and obligations of the Company, and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by the Purchaser Indemnitees, shall not be limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of any information furnished to, or any investigation made by or Knowledge of, any of the Purchaser Indemnitees or any of their representatives.

Section 6.3 Indemnification Obligations of Purchaser. Purchaser covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Company and its Affiliates, directors, managers, officers, employees, equityholders, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) harmless from and against all Damages sustained or incurred by any Seller Indemnitee arising from:

(a) (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of Purchaser’s representations and warranties in this Agreement as of the Closing Date or (ii) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of Purchaser’s representations and warranties in this Agreement as of the Product Acceptance Date (except for representations or warranties that relate to a specific date or time, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such date or time);

(b) any breach by Purchaser of, or failure by Purchaser to comply with, any of its covenants or obligations under this Agreement; or

Section 6.4 Limitations on Indemnification Obligations of Purchaser. The obligations of Purchaser pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.3 are subject to the following limitations:

(a) The Purchaser’s representations and warranties made in Article IV (the “Purchaser Warranties”), and the Seller Indemnitees’ corresponding rights to indemnification pursuant to Section 6.3(a), will survive the Closing (and none will merge into any instrument of conveyance) until the date that is the earlier of (i) 20 months after the Closing Date or (ii) 12 months after the Product Acceptance Date; provided, however, that if, at any time prior to the expiration of the representations and warranties in Article IV, any Seller Indemnitee (acting in good faith) delivers to Purchaser a Claim Notice alleging the existence of an inaccuracy in or a breach of any of the representations and warranties and asserting a claim for recovery under Section 6.3(a) for which the Seller Indemnitee reasonably expects to incur Damages, then the claim asserted in such notice shall survive until such time as such claim is fully and finally resolved. If the claim with respect to which such Claim Notice is given has been definitively withdrawn or resolved in favor of Purchaser, the Seller Indemnitee will promptly so notify Purchaser.

(b) The Seller Indemnitees will not be entitled to recover under Section 6.3(a) for inaccuracies, breaches or alleged inaccuracies or breaches of the Purchaser Warranties until the total amount that Seller Indemnitees would recover under Section 6.3(a) but for this Section 6.4(b) exceeds $50,000 (the “Purchaser Basket”). If such amount exceeds the Purchaser Basket, then the Seller Indemnitees will be entitled to recover all Damages in excess of the Purchaser Basket.

(c) The Purchaser Warranties, and the covenants and obligations of the Purchaser, and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by the Seller Indemnitees, shall not be limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of the information furnished to, or any investigation made by or Knowledge of, any of the Seller Indemnitees or any of their representatives.

Section 6.5 Claim Procedure.

(a) A party that seeks indemnity under this Article VI (an “Indemnified Party”) shall deliver a written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the party from whom indemnification is sought (an “Indemnifying Party”) (and the Escrow Agent, as applicable). Each Claim Notice shall: (a) state that the Indemnified Party believes in good faith that such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under Section 6.1 or Section 6.3 of the Purchase Agreement, as applicable; (b) contain a reasonable explanation of the basis for the Indemnified Party’s claim; (c) contain a description, and, if known, a non-binding, preliminary, good faith estimate of the amount of any Damages incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party (the aggregate amount of such estimate referred to as the “Claimed Amount”); and (d) contain a demand for payment of the Claimed Amount.

(b) During the 30 Business Day period commencing upon the receipt by the Indemnifying Party of the Claim Notice (the “Dispute Period”), the Indemnifying Party may deliver to the Indemnified Party (and to the Escrow Agent, as applicable) a written response (the “Response Notice”) in which the Indemnifying Party: (a) agrees that the full Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party; (b) agrees that part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party; or (c) indicates that no part of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party. If the Response Notice is delivered in accordance with clause “(b)” or “(c)” of the preceding sentence, the Response Notice shall also contain a reasonable explanation of the facts and circumstances supporting the Indemnifying Party’s claim that some or all of the Claimed Amount is not owed to the Indemnified Party (any part of the Claimed Amount that is not agreed by the Indemnifying Party to be owed to the Indemnified Party pursuant to the Response Notice is referred to as the “Contested Amount”). If a Response Notice is not received by the Indemnified Party prior to the expiration of the Dispute Period, then the Indemnifying Party shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed that the full Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party.

(c) If the Indemnifying Party in its Response Notice agrees that the full Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party, or if no Response Notice is received by the Indemnified Party prior to the expiration of the Dispute Period, the Indemnifying Party (or the Escrow Agent, in the event that (i) the Indemnified Party is a Purchaser Indemnitee and (ii) the Escrow Account has been funded) shall, within five Business Days following the receipt of such Response Notice or the expiration of the Dispute Period, deliver to the Indemnified Party in cash an amount equal to the full Claimed Amount to an account designated by the Indemnified Party and in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, if applicable.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party in its Response Notice agrees that part, but not all, of the Claimed Amount is owed to the Indemnified Party (the “Agreed Amount”), the Indemnifying Party (or the Escrow Agent, in the event that (i) the Indemnified Party is a Purchaser Indemnitee and (ii) the Escrow Account has been funded) shall, within five Business Days following the receipt of such Response Notice, deliver to the Indemnified Party in cash an amount equal to the full Agreed Amount within five Business Days to an account designated by the Indemnified Party and in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, if applicable.

(e) If any Response Notice expressly indicates that there is a Contested Amount, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of the indemnification claims that comprise the Contested Amount. If the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party resolve such dispute, such resolution shall be binding on the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and a written instruction stipulating the amount owed to the Indemnified Party (the “Stipulated Amount”) shall be signed by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party. Within five Business Days following the receipt of such written instruction (or such shorter period as may be set forth in such written instruction), if applicable, the Indemnifying Party (or the Escrow Agent, in the event that (i) the Indemnified Party is a Purchaser Indemnitee and (ii) the Escrow Account has been funded) shall deliver to the Indemnified Party an amount equal to

the Stipulated Amount to an account designated by the Indemnified Party and in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, if applicable.

(f) If no agreement can be reached by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party after good faith negotiation for a period of 30 days (or such longer period as may be mutually agreed upon by the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party), either the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party may pursue any action to finally resolve such matter by any legally available means consistent with the provisions of Article VII.

Section 6.6 Third Party Claims. If a Third Party notifies any Indemnified Party with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) that may give rise to a claim against an Indemnifying Party under this Article VI, then the Indemnified Party will promptly deliver a Claim Notice to each Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that no delay or deficiency on the part of the Indemnified Party in delivering such Claim Notice will relieve the Indemnifying Parties from any indemnification obligation under this Agreement unless, and then only to the extent that, the delay or deficiency actually and materially prejudices the defense of such claim or otherwise materially and adversely affects the rights of the Indemnifying Party with respect thereto.

(a) The Indemnifying Parties will have the right to contest and defend against the Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Parties’ sole cost and expense and with legal counsel of their choice (to be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Parties); provided, that (i) the Indemnifying Parties notify the Indemnified Parties, in writing within 15 days after receiving the Claim Notice that the Indemnifying Parties will indemnify the Indemnified Parties from and against all Damages that the Indemnified Parties may suffer resulting from or related to the Third Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnifying Parties provide the Indemnified Parties with evidence reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Parties that the Indemnifying Parties will have the financial resources to defend against such Third Party Claim and fulfill their indemnification obligations under this Agreement, (iii) the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief, (iv) settlement of, or an adverse judgment with respect to, the Third Party Claim is not, in the Indemnified Parties’ good faith judgment, likely to establish a precedential custom or practice adverse to any Indemnified Party or the Product Assets, and (v) the Indemnifying Parties conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently.

(b) The party not controlling the defense (the “Non-controlling Party”) may at its sole cost and expense, retain separate co-counsel of its choice and otherwise participate in such contest or defense of the Third Party Claim. The Non-controlling Party will furnish the party controlling the defense (the “Controlling Party”) with such information as it may have with respect to such suit or proceeding and will otherwise cooperate and assist the Controlling Party in the defense of such suit or hearing.

(c) The Indemnifying Party agrees that it will not consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or

delayed); provided, however, that the consent of the Indemnified Party will not be required if the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing to pay any amounts payable pursuant to such settlement or judgment and such settlement or judgment includes a full, complete and unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from further liability with respect to such claim. The Indemnified Party agrees that it will not consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to a Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(d) If an Indemnifying Party materially breaches any condition in Section 6.6(a), then (i) the Indemnified Parties may, in good faith and with the advice of legal counsel, contest, defend against, consent to the entry of any judgment on or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim in any manner that the Indemnified Parties reasonably deem appropriate (without prior consultation with or consent from any Indemnifying Party) and (ii) the Indemnifying Party will not be relieved of its obligations under this Article VI.

Section 6.7 Right of Setoff. Purchaser may set-off any Agreed Amount or Stipulated Amount, as determined in accordance with Section 6.5, resulting from the delivery of any Claim Notice delivered by Purchaser to the Company, as applicable, to the extent that such Agreed Amount or Stipulated Amount has not already been delivered to Purchaser in cash, against any amounts payable by Purchaser to the Company under this Agreement and any other Transaction Document and any other agreement or instrument otherwise then in effect between Purchaser and the Company.

Section 6.8 Reduction of Purchase Price. Any indemnification payments made pursuant to this Article VI will be treated by the Parties for income Tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.

Section 6.9 Other Indemnification Provisions.

(a) Purchaser acknowledges and agrees (on behalf of itself and all of the Purchaser Indemnitees) that the indemnification provisions in this Article VI shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Purchaser Indemnitees for any and all claims against the Company for Damages under this Agreement. The Company acknowledges and agrees (on behalf of itself and all of the Seller Indemnitees) that, the indemnification provisions in this Article VI shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Seller Indemnitees for any and all claims against Purchaser for Damages under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall limit, or be interpreted to limit, the Liability of a Party for fraud with respect to the other Parties in connection with this Agreement or the Contemplated Transactions.

(b) The amount of any and all Damages for which indemnification is provided pursuant to this Article VI will be net of any Tax benefit to which an Indemnified Party is entitled by reason of payment of such obligation or Liability (taking into account any tax cost or reduction in such tax benefits by reason of receipt of the indemnification payment). The amount of any indemnity provided in Section 6.1 or Section 6.3, as applicable, shall be computed net of

any insurance proceeds to the extent actually received by an Indemnified Party in connection with or as a result of any claim giving rise to an indemnification claim under Section 6.1 or Section 6.3 (in the case of insurance proceeds, reduced by any retroactive premium increase and further reduced by the net present value of any other premium increase resulting therefrom) and net of any credits, discounts, indemnification payments, contribution payments or reimbursements to the extent actually received by an Indemnified Party in connection with such Damages or the circumstances giving rise thereto. If the indemnity amount is paid prior to the Indemnified Party’s actual receipt of insurance proceeds related thereto, and an Indemnified Party subsequently receives such insurance proceeds, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the Company the amount of insurance proceeds subsequently received (net of all related costs, expenses and other Damages), but not more, in the aggregate, than the indemnity amount paid by to such Indemnified Party in respect of such claim.

(c) IN NO EVENT WILL THE AMOUNT OF ANY DAMAGES FOR WHICH INDEMNIFICATION IS PROVIDED PURSUANT TO THIS ARTICLE VI INCLUDE ANY LOST PROFITS, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, COLLATERAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, UNLESS, SOLELY WITH RESPECT TO CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES (TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH DAMAGES ARE DEEMED TO BE CONSEQUENTIAL), ANY SUCH DAMAGES ARE PART OF A JUDGMENT IN CONNECTION WITH A CLAIM OF A THIRD PARTY AGAINST AN INDEMNIFIED PARTY.

Section 6.10 Construction. For purposes of calculating Damages in connection with a claim for indemnification under this Article VI (but not with respect to determining whether a breach has occurred), each of the representations and warranties that contains any qualifications as to “materiality” shall be deemed to have been given as though there were no such qualifications. In addition, for purposes of determining whether a breach has occurred and calculating Damages in connection with a claim for indemnification under this Article VI, all information contained in any Disclosure Schedule Update shall be disregarded for purposes of this Article VI.

ARTICLE VII

2.2 No Implied Rights. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that, except solely for the express licenses under Section 2.1, Licensor does not grant and shall not be deemed to grant, and Licensee is not obtaining, any rights, title, interest, license, or encumbrance of any kind in or to, or to use, any of Licensor’s Intellectual Property Rights or the Licensed IP.

2.3 Excluded Field. Licensee agrees that it will not use any of the Licensed IP to implement, design, develop, or market either (a) an [*] (collectively, the “Excluded Field”). For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensee shall be entitled to use the Licensed IP in connection with products that support [*] or incorporate [*], provided that (i) no Licensed IP is used to directly implement [*] functionality; and (ii) such products contain substantial features and functions other than merely implementing [*] communications capability.

2.4 Disclaimer. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed as requiring the securing or maintaining in force of any of Licensor’s Intellectual Property Rights (including the prosecution of any invention disclosures) or the enforcement of such rights with respect to any actual or alleged infringement thereof.

2.5 Licensor Trademarks, Logos and Trade Names. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that Licensee will not use any trademark, service xxxx, trade dress, logo or trade name of Licensor, or any trademarks, service marks, trade dress, logos or trade names that are confusingly similar thereto or that are a translation or transliteration thereof into any language or alphabet.

Without limiting the generality of Section 2.8(i) above, the Patent rights granted hereunder to Licensee or otherwise under this Agreement do not include foundry or manufacturing activities for the products of third parties and may not be exercised by Licensee in a manner such that the exercise of Licensee's procurement rights is a sham or laundering scheme to effect the licensing of the Licensed Patents to a third Person and not for bona fide business purposes of Licensee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, Licensee may exercise the rights granted to it hereunder under the Licensed Patents with respect to Licensed Products that are co-developed by Licensee and a third party (where Licensee’s contribution to such development is material).

EXHIBIT G

NON-COMPETITION AGREEMENT

This Non-Competition Agreement (this “Agreement”) is being executed and delivered as of July 6, 2012 by PLX Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) in favor of, and for the benefit of, Entropic Communications, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 18 of this Agreement. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement that are not defined herein have the definitions given to such terms in the Purchase Agreement (as hereinafter defined).

Recitals

Purchaser and the Company have entered into that certain Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of July 6, 2012 (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Company will sell, and will cause its Subsidiaries to sell, to Purchaser, and Purchaser will purchase from the Company, all of the Product Assets on the terms and conditions more particularly set forth therein; and

In the interest of protecting the Product Assets, and the goodwill associated therewith, which are being directly and indirectly sold and transferred by the Company to Purchaser by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, Purchaser has required as a material inducement to Purchaser entering into the Purchase Agreement and as a condition precedent to its consummation of the transactions thereunder, that the Company enter into and deliver this Agreement.

Agreement

In order to induce Purchaser to consummate the Contemplated Transactions, and for other good and valuable consideration, the Parties agree as follows:

Section 1. Restriction on Competition.

1.1 The Company agrees that, during the Non-competition Period, the Company shall not, and shall not, subject to the provisions of Section 18(c) hereof, permit any of its Affiliates to:

(a) engage in Competition in any Restricted Territory; or

(b) directly or indirectly be or become a stockholder, owner, co-owner or Affiliate of, or acquire or hold (of record, beneficially or otherwise) any direct or indirect interest in, any Person that engages directly or indirectly in Competition in any Restricted Territory, other than in connection with a Company Change in Control; provided, that, upon a Change in Control of the Company, such COC Buyer shall assume (by operation of law or otherwise) the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, subject to the provisions of Section 18(c) hereof.

provided, however, that the Company may, without violating this Section 1, own, as a passive investment, shares of capital stock of a publicly-held corporation that engages in Competition if (i) such shares are actively traded on an established national securities market in the United States, (ii) the number of shares of such corporation’s capital stock that are owned beneficially (directly or indirectly) by the Company and the number of shares of such corporation’s capital stock that are owned beneficially (directly or indirectly) by the Company’s Affiliates collectively represent less than one percent of the total number of shares of such corporation’s capital stock outstanding, and (iii) neither the Company nor any Affiliate of the Company is otherwise associated directly or indirectly with such corporation or with any Affiliate of such corporation.

Section 2. Representations and Warranties. The Company represents and warrants, to and for the benefit of Purchaser, that: (a) it has full power and capacity to execute and deliver, and to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement; and (b) neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the performance of this Agreement will result directly or indirectly in a violation or breach of (i) any agreement or obligation by which the Company or any of its Affiliates is or may be bound, or (ii) any law, rule or regulation.

Section 3. Specific Performance. The Company agrees that, in the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Company of any covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement, Purchaser shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it, including monetary damages) to seek (a) a decree or order of specific performance to enforce the observance and performance of such covenant or obligation, and (b) an injunction restraining such breach or threatened breach. The Company further agrees that Purchaser shall not be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section 3, and the Company irrevocably waives any right it may have to require Purchaser to obtain, furnish or post any such bond or similar instrument.

Section 4. Indemnification. Subject to Section 5 hereof, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser against and from any Damages (whether or not relating to any third-party claim) that are suffered or incurred at any time (whether during or after the Non-competition Period) by Purchaser arising from (a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement, or (b) any failure on the part of the Company to observe, perform or abide by, or any other breach of, any restriction, covenant, obligation or other provision contained in this Agreement.

Section 5. Limitations on Liability. The Company’s total aggregate liability and Purchaser’s exclusive remedies for any claims arising in connection with this Agreement (regardless of theory) shall be specific performance pursuant to Section 3 and direct Damages. In no event will the Company or its Affiliates have any liability under this Agreement for special, speculative, incidental, exemplary, punitive, indirect or consequential damages whether such Damages are based in contract, tort or any other legal theory, even if such party has been advised of the possibility of such Damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing two sentences, Purchaser shall be entitled to seek, and if applicable recover, Damages for any lost profits attributable to a breach by the Company of any covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement, together with any costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’, accountants’,

investigators’ and experts’ fees and expenses) related to obtaining the foregoing relief or the specific performance remedy described above.. Moreover, any Damages actually paid by Purchaser to a third party (as a result of a final court order or a settlement entered into consistent with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement) arising from a breach by the Company of any covenant or obligation contained in this Agreement shall be considered direct Damages rather than special, speculative, incidental, exemplary, punitive, indirect or consequential Damages.

Section 6. Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the parties hereto agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.

Section 7. Governing Law; Venue.

7.1 This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and governed in all respects by, the laws of the State of California (without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws).

7.2 Any legal action or other legal proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement may be brought or otherwise commenced in any state or federal court located in the County of San Diego, California. Each Party:

(a) expressly and irrevocably consents and submits to the jurisdiction of each state and federal court located in the County of San Diego, California (and each appellate court located in the State of California), in connection with any such legal proceeding;

(b) agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document sent by U.S. mail addressed to such Party at the address set forth on the signature page of this Agreement shall constitute effective service of such process, summons, notice or document for purposes of any such legal proceeding;

(c) agrees that each state and federal court located in the County of San Diego, California shall be deemed to be a convenient forum; and

(d) agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise), in any such legal proceeding commenced in any state or federal court located in the County of San Diego, California, any claim that such Party is not subject to the jurisdiction of such court,

that such legal proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter of this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such court.

Nothing contained in this Section 7 shall be deemed to limit or otherwise affect the right of a Party to commence any legal proceeding or otherwise proceed against the other Party in any other forum or jurisdiction.

7.3 THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ENFORCEMENT OF ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 8. Waiver. No failure on the part of either Party to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of either Party in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. A Party shall not be deemed to have waived any claim arising out of this Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy of a Party under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of the waiving Party; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.

Section 9. Successors and Assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by the Company or Purchaser without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that (i) Purchaser may, without the prior approval of the Company, assign any or all of its rights and interests hereunder to any Affiliate of Purchaser (provided that any such assigned rights and interests will terminate in the event that such Affiliate ceases to be an Affiliate of Purchaser) and (ii) the forgoing prohibition shall not apply to a Change in Control of either Party. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of a Party and shall inure to the benefit of the other Party.

Section 10. Further Assurances. Each Party shall (at such Party’s own expense) execute and/or cause to be delivered to the other Party such instruments and other documents, and shall (at such Party’s sole expense) take such other actions, as the other Party may reasonably request at any time (whether during or after the Non-competition Period) for the purpose of carrying out or evidencing any of the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 11. Attorneys’ Fees. If any legal action or other legal proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of any provision of this Agreement is brought against the Company or Purchaser, as applicable, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and disbursements (in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be entitled).

The expiration of the Non-competition Period shall not operate to relieve the Parties of any obligation or liability arising from any prior breach by the Parties of any provision of this Agreement.

Section 15. Obligations Absolute. The Parties’ obligations under this Agreement are absolute and shall not be terminated or otherwise limited by virtue of any breach (on the part of the Parties, or any other Person) of any provision of the Purchase Agreement or any other agreement, or by virtue of any failure to perform or other breach of any obligation of the Parties, or any other Person.

Section 18. Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement:

18.1 “Affiliate” means, with respect to any specified Person, any other Person that, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such specified Person, and shall include without limitation, with respect to the Company, its Subsidiaries.

18.2 “Competing Product” means the Product as defined in the Purchase Agreement, any product that would reasonably be deemed an improvement, derivative or new

version of the Product (an “Improvement Product”), or any other product that has substantially the same features or performs substantially the same functions as the Product or an Improvement Product. For the avoidance of doubt, a product will not be deemed a Competing Product merely because it employs technology employed in the Competing Product but is not otherwise a Competing Product (as defined in the first sentence of this paragraph).

18.3 A Person shall be deemed to be engaged in “Competition” to the extent such Person or any of such Person’s subsidiaries or other Affiliates is engaged in the design, development, manufacture, assembly, promotion, sale, supply, distribution, resale, installation, support, maintenance, repair, refurbishment, licensing, sublicensing, financing, leasing or subleasing, production or marketing of any Competing Product (collectively, the “Prohibited Activities”). Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control of the Company (a “Company Change in Control”), the provisions of Section 1 of this Agreement shall not apply to any activities of the COC Buyer or its Affiliates (exclusive of (x) the Company and the Company’s Affiliates immediately prior to such Company Change in Control or (y) in an asset transaction, the Person who acquires the assets of the Company or the Company’s Affiliates) following the consummation of such Company Change in Control; provided, however, Section 1 of this Agreement shall continue to apply to the Prohibited Activities by the COC Buyer or any of the COC Buyer’s Affiliates using assets or technology (including intellectual property rights) acquired as a result of such Company Change in Control.

18.4 “Change in Control” means the acquisition of a Party by any third party (the “COC Buyer”) by means of (a) a merger or consolidation of Party or any of its controlling Affiliates in which the holders of the voting securities of such Party or such Affiliate outstanding immediately prior to the closing of such merger or consolidation cease to hold at least fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the surviving entity (or its parent entity) immediately after the closing of such merger or consolidation, (b) such COC Buyer, together with its controlling Affiliates, becoming, directly or indirectly, the beneficial owner of fifty percent (50%) or more of the combined voting power of a Party or any of its controlling Affiliate, or (c) the sale to such COC Buyer of all or substantially all of a Party’s assets.

18.5 “Non-competition Period” shall mean the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending on the [*] anniversary of the date of this Agreement.

18.6 “Person” means any: (i) individual; (ii) corporation, general partnership, limited partnership, limited liability partnership, trust, company (including any limited liability company or joint stock company) or other organization or entity; or (iii) governmental body or authority.

18.7 “Restricted Territory” means worldwide, including each county or similar political subdivision of each State of the United States of America (including each of the counties in the State of California), and each State, territory or possession of the United States of America.

In Witness Whereof, the Parties have duly executed and delivered this Agreement as of the date first above written.
