To the Knowledge of Seller, there are no threatened claims with respect to the Business for (i) product returns, (ii) warranty obligations, or (iii) product services except to the extent that individually or in the aggregate such claims are not material to the Business.

SECTION 5.2 Agreement Not To Compete or Solicit.

(a) Seller, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, understands that Purchaser shall be entitled to protect and preserve the going concern value of the Business to the extent permitted by Law and not otherwise provided pursuant to this Agreement and that Purchaser

37

Confidential Information (indicated by [...]) has been omitted and filed separately
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

would not haveentered into this Agreement absent the provisions of this Section 5.2 and, therefore, for a period of three (3) years from and after the Closing Date, Seller shall not, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly (including by way of license of any Licensed Intellectual Property), (i) engage in the design, development, marketing, production or sale of any product that has the same or similar specification or functionality as a Module Product, including enhancements, derivatives, modifications, evolutions or combinations of or with a Module Product for use in the Field (“Competitive Products”) or (ii) acquire, own, invest in, manage, operate or participate in any manner in the ownership, financing, management or operation of any business that engages or intends to engage in the Field anywhere in the world, or (iii) utilize its knowledge of the Business or its relationships with customers, suppliers or others to engage or facilitate others to engage in any facet of business within the Field anywhere in the world; provided, however, that neither the non-compete obligations set forth in this Section 5.2(a), nor any other provision of this Agreement, shall prohibit Seller and its Subsidiaries from (i) using the Licensed Intellectual Property or otherwise engaging in business outside of the Field; or (ii) selling, developing, designing, marketing or manufacturing Consumer Electronics and Communications Products or devices for incorporation into Consumer Electronics and Communications Products.

(b) Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, for three (3) years from and after the Closing Date, shall not practice or use the Assigned Intellectual Property or the Licensed Intellectual Property to engage in a business (a “Competing Business”) that competes with the Seller’s Restricted Business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Purchaser (i) purchases or acquires a Competing Business that during the [. . .] period immediately proceeding the consummation of such transaction [. . .] or (ii) [. . .], this covenant set forth in this Section 5.2(b) shall terminate upon closing of such transaction.

(c) From and after the date hereof and for a period of twenty-four (24) months after the Closing Date, Seller shall not and shall not suffer or permit any of its Subsidiaries to directly or indirectly solicit, recruit, hire (whether as an employee or a consultant) or attempt to hire any of the Purchaser Employees or UK Purchaser Employees; provided, however, that Seller and its Subsidiaries shall not be restricted from hiring any Purchaser Employee or UK Purchaser Employee who is terminated by Purchaser or its Subsidiaries due to redundancy or a reduction in force.

(d) Seller and Purchaser recognize that the Laws and public policies of the Applicable Jurisdictions may differ as to the validity and enforceability of covenants similar to those set forth in this Section. It is the intention of the parties that the provisions of this Section be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the Laws and policies of each jurisdiction in which enforcement may be sought, and that the unenforceability (or the modification to conform to such Laws or policies) of any provisions of this Section shall not render unenforceable, or impair, the remainder of the provisions of this Section. Accordingly, if any provision of this Section shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall be deemed to apply only with respect to the operation of such provision in the particular jurisdiction in which such determination is made and not with

38

respect to any other provision or jurisdiction. Seller and Purchaser hereby acknowledge and agree that the covenants set forth in this Section 5.2 are part of the consideration given for this Agreement and are reasonable and necessary in terms of time, area and line of business to protect the legitimate business interests of Purchaser and its Seller and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates, which include the interests of each Party and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates to protect (i) valuable confidential business information, (ii) substantial relationships with customers worldwide, and (iii) customer goodwill. Each of Seller and Purchaser, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, expressly authorizes the enforcement of the covenants set forth in this Section 5.2 by the other party, the permitted assigns of said other party and any successors of said other Party.

(e) The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that any remedy at Law for any breach of the provisions of this Section would be inadequate, and Seller and Purchaser hereby consents to the granting by any court of an injunction or other equitable relief, without the necessity of actual monetary loss being proved or any bond or similar security being posted, in order that the breach or threatened breach of such provisions may be effectively restrained.

SECTION 5.3 Access to Information.

SECTION 5.6 Customers and Suppliers.

In relation to suppliers, Seller shall extend commercially reasonable efforts to procure for the Business following the Closing terms and conditions (including pricing conditions) substantially similar to those currently enjoyed by the Business as operated by Seller and the Selling Subsidiaries.

(a) Until the Closing, the parties shall, and shall cause their Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause and facilitate the prompt satisfaction of all conditions set forth herein, and to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable, including by defending against any lawsuits, actions or proceedings, judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and seeking to have any preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order, stay or other legal restraint or prohibition entered or imposed by any court or other Governmental Authority that is not yet final and nonappealable vacated or reversed. From and after the Closing Date, each of the parties shall, and shall cause their Subsidiaries to, execute and deliver such documents and other papers, including the provision by Seller and its Subsidiaries of access for Purchaser to such additional information relating to the Business following the Closing as may be reasonably requested by Purchaser, and take such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements as promptly as practicable.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing Seller shall assist and cooperate with Purchaser (and shall cause the Selling Subsidiaries to assist and cooperate with Purchaser) in order for the parties to do all things necessary, proper or advisable under Laws (A) to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated hereby, including, but not limited to obtaining all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from, and giving any necessary notifications to, third parties and (B) to assure that Seller, or any of the Selling Subsidiaries, as the case may be, rather than Purchaser, is the obligor in respect of all Excluded Liabilities, and Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller for such purposes.

42

Confidential Information (indicated by [...]) has been omitted and filed separately
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Purchaser in a manner that will avoid any applicable default, conflict, or termination of rights under or in respect of the Acquired Assets. Nothing in this Section shall (i) require Purchaser to expend any sum, make a financial commitment or grant or agree to any concession to any third Person to obtain any such consent, approval or waiver, (ii) alter, diminish or otherwise affect Purchaser’s rights under Article X, or (iii) require Seller or any of its Subsidiaries to remain secondarily liable or to make any payment to obtain any such consent.

SECTION 5.8 Assignment of Rights.

(a) Nothing in this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be construed as an attempt or agreement to assign any Acquired Asset, including any Assumed Contract, if such assignment, without the consent of a third party, would constitute a breach or other contravention or cancellation of such Acquired Asset (“Nonassignable Assets”) unless and until such consent shall have been obtained. Seller and Purchaser will each use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of the other parties to any such Acquired Asset or any claim, right or any benefit arising thereunder for the assignment thereof to Purchaser as Purchaser may request. Except as provided in Section 5.14(a), in the event consents to the assignment thereof cannot be obtained, such Nonassignable Assets shall be held, as of and from the Closing Date, by Seller or its Subsidiary in trust for Purchaser and its Subsidiaries and the covenants and obligations thereunder shall be performed by Purchaser in Seller’s or its Subsidiary’s name and all benefits and obligations existing thereunder shall be for Purchaser’s account. Seller shall take or cause to be taken at Seller’s expense such actions in its name or otherwise as Purchaser may reasonably request so as to provide Purchaser with the benefits of the Nonassignable Assets and to effect collection of money or other consideration that becomes due and payable under the Nonassignable Assets, and Seller or the applicable Subsidiary of Seller shall promptly pay over to Purchaser all money or other consideration received by it in respect of all Nonassignable Assets. Except as provided in Section 5.14(a), as of and from the Closing Date, Seller, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, authorizes Purchaser, except to the extent prohibited by the terms of the Nonassignable Assets, at Seller’s expense, to perform all the obligations and/or receive all the benefits of Seller or its Subsidiary under the Nonassignable Assets.

(i) Seller shall have no liability under Section 10.2(a)(i) unless and until (x) Seller is timely and properly notified of a potential claim in accordance with Section 10.5 and (y) the aggregate liability that Seller would have under Section 10.2(a)(i) exceeds on a cumulative basis an amount equal to [. . .] (the “Threshold Amount”) (in which event Purchaser shall be entitled to the full amount of the indemnity and not just the amount in excess of the Threshold Amount);

(iii) Except as provided in Section 10.3(b) below, in no event shall Seller have any obligation to indemnify under Section 10.2(a), Section 10.2(b) or Section 10.2(c) for any amount, to the extent that such amount, when aggregated with all other amounts payable as a result of indemnification under Section 10.2(a), Section 10.2(b) and/or Section 10.2(c) would be in excess of the Initial Payment plus any Subsequent Payments.

SECTION 10.4 Termination of Indemnification for Breaches of Representation and Warranties. The obligations to indemnify and hold harmless any party pursuant to Section 10.1(a) or Section 10.2(a)(i) shall terminate on the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date; provided, however, that in the case of those representations and warranties that survive beyond such eighteen (18) month period (as provided in Section 11.1), the obligation to indemnify and hold harmless shall continue until the termination of such representations and warranties pursuant to Section 11.1. Such obligations to indemnify and hold harmless shall not terminate with respect to any item as to which the Person to be indemnified shall have, before the expiration of the applicable period, previously made a claim by delivering a notice of such claim (stating in reasonable detail the basis of such claim) pursuant to Section 10.5 to the party to be providing the indemnification.

SECTION 10.5 Notification of Claims. All claims for indemnification under this Article X shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a) In the event any Person entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 10.1 or 10.2 (the “Indemnified Party”) should have a claim against any Person liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) under Section 10.1 or 10.2 that does not involve a third-party claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party; provided, however, that such notice shall not be effective unless it expressly specifies, or it is reasonably apparent from the document, that it is a notice for indemnification hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party does not notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) calendar days following its receipt of such notice that the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under Section 10.1 or 10.2, such claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party under Section 10.1 or 10.2 and the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion thereof) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined.

(b) If such claim involves a claim by a third party against the Indemnified Party, and provided the claim by the Indemnified Party is not of a type for which the Indemnifying Party’s liability may be limited by Section 10.3, and further provided that such claim solely involves monetary damages and the full amount of such monetary damages would be fully payable by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to the indemnification obligations set forth in this Agreement in the event such third party won such claim, the Indemnifying Party may, within ten days after receipt of such notice and upon notice to the Indemnified Party, assume, with counsel of its own choice, reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnifying Party, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, the settlement or defense thereof (in which case any Loss associated therewith shall be the sole responsibility of the Indemnifying Party), provided that the Indemnified Party may, at its sole cost and expense, participate in such

58

with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

settlement or defense through counsel chosen by it without any right to control thereof, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection therewith.

(c) For all other such claims that involve a claim by a third party against the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing, reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party, any third party legal action or other claim, but the Indemnifying Party may, at its election, participate in the defense thereof at its sole cost and expense; provided, however, that if the Indemnified Party shall fail to defend any such legal action or other claim, then the Indemnifying Party may defend, through counsel of its own choosing, such legal action or other claim, and so long as it gives the Indemnified Party at least 15 days’ notice of the terms of the proposed settlement thereof and permits the Indemnified Party to then undertake the defense thereof, except as set forth below, and settle such legal action or other claim and reduce the Indemnity Amount in the amount of such settlement or of any judgment and the reasonable costs and expenses of such defense.

(d) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, (i) the Indemnified Party may, at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnified Party, at any time prior to the Indemnifying Party’s delivery of the notice referred to in Section 10.5(b), file any motion, answer or other pleadings or take any other action that the Indemnified Party reasonably believes to be necessary or appropriate to protect its interests, (ii) the Indemnified Party may take over the control of the defense or settlement of a third-party claim at any time, and (iii) the Indemnifying Party may not, without the consent of the Indemnified Party, settle or compromise any action or consent to the entry of any judgment, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. So long as the Indemnifying Party is contesting any such claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall not pay or settle any such claim without the Indemnifying Party’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

(e) If the Indemnifying Party is not entitled to assume the defense of the claim pursuant to the foregoing provisions or is entitled but does not contest such claim in good faith (including if it does not notify the Indemnified Party of its assumption of the defense of such claim within the ten-day period set forth above), then the Indemnified Party may conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing and at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the settlement or defense thereof, and the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with it in connection therewith.

(f) The failure of the Indemnified Party to participate in, conduct or control such defense shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any obligation it may have hereunder. Any defense costs required to be paid by the Indemnifying Party shall be paid as incurred, promptly against delivery of invoices therefor.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if requested by Purchaser and consented to by Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), Seller agrees to cause the Business, the Acquired Assets, the Assigned Intellectual Property and the Assumed Liabilities or, in each case, any portion thereof, at Closing to be transferred to any Affiliate as Purchaser may direct.
