Assignee is deemed by this Agreement to have the intent not to pay any withholding tax for the $4,000,000 First Payment set forth in Section 2.1(a), as appropriate notice to Assignor for this Section’s purposes. If the Assignee, based on a foregoing notice of Assignor, makes a payment to Assignor without withholding or deducting any taxes and a subsequent audit or other examination identifies that a withholding or deduction should have been made from the payment, the Assignor shall be solely and exclusively liable to bear and settle with the appropriate governmental authorities the taxes not withheld or deducted, along with any interest, penalties and other charges associated therewith the taxes and determined based upon the taxes.

Any payment adjustments (whether due to under- or over-payments) shall be incorporated with the next quarterly payment under this Agreement. Should any payment be underpaid by 5% or more, without reasonable explanation, then Assignee shall pay the reasonable expense of such audit, if any, along with a late payment fee of interest on the under-payment amount at an annual interest rate of * (*%) or the maximum interest rate permitted by law, whichever is lesser, paid with the next quarterly payment due under this Agreement. Assignee shall preserve and maintain all such books and records required for audit for a period of five (5) years after the calendar quarter for which the books and records apply.

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

6.2 The execution and delivery by such Party of this Agreement and the performance by such Party of its obligations contemplated in this Agreement have been duly authorized by any necessary corporate or other action of such Party;

6.3 Neither Party has made any agreement with any third party which would entitle such third party to claim any fee, commission or reimbursement of expenses from the other Party or any of its Affiliates as a result of such Party entering into this Agreement. That is, for example, Assignee has not made an agreement that obligates Assignor to make any further payments to a third party as a result of this Agreement beyond the obligations provided for in this Agreement.

As of the Effective Date of this Agreement, Assignor makes the representations and warranties in Sections 6.4 through 6.8 to Assignee:

6.4 Assignor owns all right, title and interest to the Transferred Patents existing as of the Effective Date, including, without limitation, all right, title and interest to sue for infringement of the Transferred Patents and has the right to make the assignments provided in Section 3.

6.5 To the Knowledge of Assignor, all such Transferred Patents are free from all liens, claims, mortgages, security interests or other encumbrances, or restrictions, except as listed on Exhibit C.

6.6 Assignor is responsible for the payment of all maintenance fees, annuities and other like fees for such Transferred Patents that having a due date on or before the later of (i) the Closing Date and (ii) May 31, 2013, and Assignee shall be responsible for the payment of all such fees due after such date above.

None of the Transferred Patents has been or is currently involved in any reexamination, reissue, interference proceeding, or any similar proceeding except as noted in Exhibit A, and no such proceedings are pending or threatened. If any of the Transferred Patents are terminally disclaimed to another patent or patent application, all patents and patent applications subject to such terminal disclaimer are included in this transaction. To the extent “small entity” fees were paid to the United States Patent and Trademark Office for any Transferred Patent, such reduced fees were then appropriate because the payor qualified to pay “small entity” fees at the time of such payment and specifically had not licensed rights in any of the Transferred Patents to an entity that was not a “small entity.”

COMMON INTEREST AGREEMENT

THIS COMMON INTEREST AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into by and between Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., a Chinese Corporation, having offices at Administration Building Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. Bantian Longgang District, Shenzhen 518129, P. R. China (“Assignor”), and Inventergy, Inc., a Delaware corporation, having offices at 19925 Stevens Creek Boulevard, Suite 100, Cupertino, California, 95014 United States of America (“Assignee”) (Assignee and Assignor each a “Party” and together the “Parties”).

1. Background.

Each of Inventergy and Huawei have entered into a Patent Rights Assignment Agreement (PRA) in connection with certain patent and other intellectual property rights of Inventergy and/or Huawei (the "Patent Rights," and matters related to the Patent Rights, the "Patent Matters").

The parties share a common legal interest in upholding the validity and enforceability of the Transferred Patents for purposes of Assignee’s licensing and enforcement activities. The parties anticipate that Inventergy will enforce inherent rights of the Patent Rights against third parties through licensing activities and possibly as well through litigation. The parties have agreed to treat their communications and those of their counsel relating to the Patent Matters as protected by the common interest doctrine. Furtherance of the Patent Matters requires the exchange of proprietary documents and information, the joint development of legal strategies and the exchange of privileged information and attorney work product developed by the parties and their respective counsel.

2. Common Interest.

In furtherance of their common interest, the parties may continue to cooperate with each other, to the extent permitted by law, and subject to each party's discretion, to share information protected by the attorney-client privilege, the work product doctrine, or other applicable privilege or immunity with respect to the Patent Matters. Any counsel or consultant retained by a party or their counsel to assist in the Patent Matters shall be bound by, and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement. Subject to the PRA, upon further agreed by parties in writing, the parties and their counsel may continue to exchange privileged and work product information, orally and in writing, including, without limitation, factual analyses, mental impressions, legal memoranda, source materials, draft legal documents, evidence of use materials, claims charts, prosecution history files and other information (hereinafter "Common Interest Materials"). The sole purpose of the exchange of the Common Interest Materials is to support the parties’ common interest with respect to the enforcement for the Patent Matters. Any Common Interest Materials exchanged shall continue to be protected under all applicable privileges and no such exchange shall constitute a waiver of any applicable privilege or protection. Nothing in this Agreement requires a party to share information with the other party. Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute nor cause any obligation or liability to Assignor.

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

Unless otherwise expressly specified under PRA or further agreed by parties in writing, Assignor and inventors of the Transferred Patents shall not be obligated to assist in prosecution, maintenance, litigation or licensing of the Transferred Patents or to execute or have executed additional oaths, declarations or any other assistance after the assignment date.

3. Nondisclosure.

The parties and their counsel shall use the Common Interest Materials solely in connection with the Patent Matters and the furtherance of the purposes and interests of the PRA, and shall take appropriate steps to protect the privileged and confidential nature of the Common Interest Material. Each party shall notify the other of any request, order and/or directive to produce such privileged documents as soon as practicable and shall consult with the other party as to the appropriate response. Following such consultation, neither party nor their respective counsel shall produce privileged documents unless or until required by law as determined by the relevant party's counsel. Except as herein provided, in the event that either party or its counsel is requested or required in the context of a litigation, governmental, judicial or regulatory investigation or other similar proceedings (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoenas, civil investigative demands or similar process) to disclose any Common Interest Materials, the party or its counsel shall assert all applicable privileges, as determined by its counsel, including, without limitation, the common interest doctrine, and, as soon as practicable, shall inform the other party and the other party's counsel of the request or requirement to disclose.

4. Relationship; Additions; Termination.

This Agreement does not by itself create any agency or similar relationship among the parties. Through the term of the agreement between the parties, or any other agreement requiring confidentiality (whichever term is longer), neither party nor their respective counsel has the authority to waive any applicable privilege or doctrine on behalf of the other party.

Nothing in this Agreement affects the separate and independent representation of each party by its respective counsel or creates an attorney-client relationship between the counsel for a party and the other party to this Agreement.

This Agreement shall continue until terminated upon the written request of either party. Upon termination, each party and their respective counsel shall return any Common Interest Material furnished by the other party, unless otherwise required by law or regulation. Notwithstanding termination, this Agreement shall continue to protect all Common Interest Materials disclosed prior to termination, including under applicable attorney client privileges and/or work product doctrine, and sections 3 and 5 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

5. General Terms.

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its choice of law principles to the contrary. In the event any provision of the Agreement is held by any court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remaining terms shall remain in effect. Failure of either party to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of future enforcement of that or any other provision.

(i) Escrow Agent may consult with legal counsel of its own choosing (the fees of which shall be indemnifiable expenses pursuant to Section 9) as to any matter relating to this Agreement and Escrow Agent shall incur no liability and shall be fully protected in respect of any action taken, omitted or suffered by it in good faith in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

(j) In the event of any dispute or conflicting claim with respect to the payment, ownership or right of possession of the Escrow Account, Escrow Agent shall be entitled, in its sole discretion, to refuse to comply with any and all claims, demands or instructions. Escrow Agent is authorized and directed to retain in its possession, without liability to anyone, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, all or any part of the Escrow Assignments until such dispute shall have been settled either by mutual agreement of the parties concerned or by final order, decree or judgment of a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction in the United States of America (as notified to Escrow Agent in writing by the parties to the dispute or their authorized representatives and setting forth the resolution of the dispute).

(l) When Escrow Agent acts on any communication (including, but not limited to, communication with respect to the delivery of securities or the wire transfer of funds) sent by electronic transmission, Escrow Agent, absent gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not be responsible or liable in the event such communication is not an authorized or authentic communication of the party involved or is not in the form the party involved sent or intended to send (whether due to fraud, distortion or otherwise).
