INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
14.1 PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. For the purpose of this Agreement:
(a) "Proprietary Information" shall mean all drawings, documents,
ideas, know-how and other information supplied by one party to another (whether
disclosed orally, or in documentary form, by demonstration or otherwise) for the
purpose of achieving the objectives of this Agreement.
(b) "Proper Use" shall mean use of the Proprietary Information solely
by the recipient for the objectives of this Agreement.
14.2 NONDISCLOSURE. All Proprietary Information furnished shall remain the
property of the disclosing party and shall be treated by the recipient in strict
confidence, shall not be used except for Proper Use, shall be disclosed by the
recipient only to persons within the recipient's company (including companies
directly or indirectly more than fifty percent (50%) owned or controlled by the
recipient) who are directly concerned in the Proper Use, and shall not be
disclosed to consultants or by the recipient to any other party without the
disclosing party's prior written consent, except for Proprietary Information
that was:

prohibitions and restrictions. The recipient of Proprietary Information shall
inform its employees of the confidential nature of the Proprietary Information
and shall prohibit them from making copies of any of it except where such copies
are necessary for the purposes of Proper Use, unless agreed upon by the
disclosing party. The recipient of Proprietary Information shall exercise the
same degree of care in protecting such Proprietary Information as it takes to
preserve and safeguard its own proprietary information, and in no event less
than a degree of care a reasonable recipient would use to protect its own
proprietary information.
14.3 MARKING. Proprietary Information made available in written form by one
party to the other party shall be marked with the legend:
"ENDWAVE PROPRIETARY INFORMATION"
or - "TRW PROPRIETARY INFORMATION"

INDEMNIFICATION
15.1 INDEMNIFICATION BY TRW: In the event any Products to be furnished
under this Agreement are not to be made in accordance with drawings, samples, or
manufacturing specifications designated by Buyer, but rather are the design of
TRW, TRW agrees that it shall, at its own expense and at its option, defend or
settle any claim, suit, or proceeding brought against Buyer, based on an
allegation that the Products furnished under this Agreement constitute a direct
or a contributory infringement of any claim of any patent, mask work, copyright
or any other intellectual property right. This obligation shall be effective
only if Buyer shall have made all payments then due and if TRW is notified of
said allegation promptly in writing and given authority, information, and
assistance for the settlement or defense of said claim, suit, or proceedings.
TRW shall pay all damages and costs assessed in such suit or proceedings. In the
event of a final adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction that its
Products or any part thereof infringes or violates any third party intellectual
property right or if the use or sale thereof is enjoined, or if the provisions
of any negotiated settlement agreement prohibit the use of the Products, TRW
shall at its sole option and its own expense, either:
(1) Procure for Buyer the right to continue using the Product; or
(2) Replace the Products with substantially equivalent non-infringing
Products; or
(3) Modify the Products so they become non-infringing but
substantiallyequivalent; or
(4) To the extent that the options set forth in Clauses (1), (2) and
(3) are not reasonably available, terminate the Buyer's right to use
the Product and return to the Buyer a pro-rata portion of the price
originally paid by Buyer to TRW represented by the remaining useful
life of the Product as a percentage of the total useful life.
The foregoing indemnity does not apply to the following:
(1) Infringement by a combination of Products furnished under this
Agreement with other products not furnished hereunder unless TRW is a
contributory infringer;
(2) Infringement resulting from changes or modifications made to or
from the Products by the Buyer; and (3) Any settlements of a claim,
suit, or proceeding made without TRW's written consent.
The foregoing states the entire liability of Seller with respect to infringement
or violation of third party intellectual property rights in connection with
Products furnished under this Agreement.
15.2 INDEMNIFICATION BY BUYER: In the event any Products to be furnished
under this Agreement are to be made in accordance with drawings, samples, or
manufacturing specifications designated by Buyer and are not the design of TRW,
Buyer agrees to defend, indemnify and hold TRW harmless to the same extent and
subject to the same requirements as set forth in TRW's indemnification of Buyer
as set forth in Section 15.1 above.
