The parties agree that the payment of the License Fee to ▇▇▇▇▇ is (i) not refundable, and (ii) unrelated to the volume of sales by MediaTek, and (iii) not subject to any deductions, offsets or withholdings, other than withholdings for purposes of Taiwan tax law for purposes of Section 3(d) below.

b. Royalties. In consideration for the license granted hereunder, for the first thirty (30) months after the Effective Date, MediaTek shall pay to ▇▇▇▇▇ a monthly royalty of one million United States dollars (US $1,000,000) for each month during which at least [****] units of Licensed Products are Sold, whether by MediaTek or any of its Subsidiaries (“Royalty”). [****]. In no event shall the total royalties payable under this Section 3(b) exceed a total of thirty million United States dollars (US $30,000,000).

MediaTek shall not be required to provide any reports regarding the volume of Licensed Products sold by MediaTek.

c. Payment. The payment of the License Fee and Royalties shall be made to ▇▇▇▇▇ Corporation in United States currency by wire transfer to the following account:

Bank Address: [****].

ABA Number: [****]

Account Name: [****]

Account Number: [****]

Beneficiary: [****]

d. Withholding Taxes.

(i) Because of the possibility that Taiwan tax authorities may require withholding with respect to the payments under this Agreement, MediaTek shall withhold amounts from the payments made to ▇▇▇▇▇ pursuant to this Agreement at the applicable withholding tax rate and pay such amounts to the appropriate Taiwan tax authorities (the “Pre-Gross-Up Tax Withholding”). The parties shall cooperate with each other and use all reasonable efforts to reduce or eliminate such withholding tax liability as further described below.

(ii) MediaTek will prepare and promptly file an application on Zoran’s behalf with the Taiwan tax authorities for exemption from Taiwan’s withholding taxes with respect to such payments. The parties shall cooperate and work together with respect to such application and use reasonable efforts to obtain such exemption. To the extent that a complete exemption is not available, the parties shall cooperate and work together to reduce such withholding taxes to the maximum extent possible. MediaTek and ▇▇▇▇▇ each agree to provide all documents reasonably requested by the other party in connection with such application.

(iii) [****].

(iv) [****].

(v) [****].

e. Late Payment. Any payment under this Article 3 that is not made when due shall bear interest at the lesser of the prime rate plus two percent (2%), as reported by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Guaranty Trust Co. of New York, New York, or the maximum rate permitted by law, from the date that such amounts were payable under this Section 3 until the date upon which such payment is made. In any action to collect past due amounts which have not been paid in accordance with this Section 3, the prevailing party shall be entitled to receive its costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in such action as set forth in Section 9 below.

f. Other. The above payments will remain due from MediaTek to ▇▇▇▇▇ even if the Licensed Patents are held invalid or unenforceable in a suit or other proceeding with a third party. The parties acknowledge that the payments under this Section 3 are not evidence of what a reasonable royalty would be as determined in a suit for infringement of any of the patents covered by this Agreement and are specifically

5. CONFIDENTIALITY OF TERMS

a. Neither the parties nor their Subsidiaries shall use or refer to this Agreement or any of its provisions in any promotional activity, except that the parties shall be each allowed to issue a press release announcing the existence of this Agreement.

(ii) in the case of MediaTek, as permitted by the prior written consent of ▇▇▇▇▇, granted in its sole discretion;

(iii) in the case of ▇▇▇▇▇, as permitted by the prior written consent of MediaTek, granted in its sole discretion;

(iv) as may be required by law or legal process (including legal requirements and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market), as determined by such party based on advice and counsel from such party’s outside securities counsel that such disclosure is advisable under such law or legal process, provided however, that in the event either party determines it is necessary to publicly file a copy of this Agreement, the disclosing party agrees to notify the other party prior to such filing and, upon the request of the other party, to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain confidential treatment for information deemed sensitive, to the extent such confidential treatment is available under applicable laws and regulations;

(v) to the International Trade Commission (“ITC”) (to the extent permissible by ITC rules, all such information shall be submitted in confidence);

(ix) to a third party in connection with a potential Change of Control or other permitted assignment of this Agreement by, of or with the party, provided that such disclosure shall be (A) on a strictly limited, need-to-know basis, (B) when the party believes that such transaction is reasonably likely to take place, and (C) on terms applicable to other highly confidential information disclosed by such party in connection with such transaction provided such terms prohibit disclosure, prohibit use for any purpose other than as
