(b) Should PURCHASER assert against SONY a claim based on its Patents and/or Intellectual Property, SONY shall, at its option, have the right to terminate the license granted by SONY hereunder, such termination to be effected by serving notice in writing upon PURCHASER to that effect not less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such termination. (c) Should SONY or any SONY Affiliate assert against PURCHASER a claim based on its Patents and/or Intellectual Property, PURCHASER shall, at its option, have the right to terminate the license granted by PURCHASER hereunder, such termination to be effected by serving notice in writing upon SONY to that effect not less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such termination. 7.3 Insolvency The licenses granted to a Party under Section 3 hereof shall automatically terminate should such Party become adjudicated insolvent by reason of failure to pay its debts when due, enter into bankruptcy proceeding for its liquidation, voluntarily or involuntarily, or make any assignment for the benefit of any one or more creditors. 7\n\n\n\n\n\n 7.4 Continuing Obligations Termination of the licenses granted hereunder shall not affect any liability of either of the Parties previously accruing under this IP Agreement. 8. Representations and Warranties SONY hereby makes the following representations and warranties to PURCHASER, each of which shall be true and correct as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, and shall be unaffected by any investigation heretofore or hereafter made: 8.1 Power and Authority SONY has the right and power to enter into this IP Agreement and to transfer the Transferred Patents and to grant the license set forth in Section 3.1. 8.2 Essential Patents The Transferred Patents listed on Exhibit A comprise the Patents, both U.S. and foreign, owned or claimed by SONY or any SONY Affiliate, that are essential to the conduct of the Business as conducted by SONY. 8.3 Ownership All of the Transferred Patents are owned solely by SONY. No Transferred Patent is jointly owned by SONY and any other Person, nor is it owned or jointly owned by any SONY Affiliate. 8.4 Validity and Enforceability Each of the Transferred Patents (excluding applications) is subsisting, and, to the Knowledge of SONY, valid and in full force and effect (except with respect to applications), and has not expired or been cancelled or abandoned. All necessary documents and certifications in connection with each Transferred Patent (excluding applications) have been filed with the relevant patent, copyright or other authorities in the United States and foreign jurisdictions, as the case may be, for the purposes of avoiding abandonment, prosecuting and maintaining of 8\n\n\n\n\n\n Transferred Patents (excluding applications). Except for actions of the relevant jurisdiction's patent and trademark office or other government intellectual property office (\"Office Actions\"), SONY has not, to the Knowledge of SONY, received written notice of any pending or threatened (and at no time within the two years prior to the Effective Date has there been pending any) action before any court, governmental authority or arbitral tribunal in any jurisdiction challenging the use, ownership, validity, enforceability or registerability of any of the Transferred Patents. Rejections of pending applications before a national patent, trademark or intellectual properly office will not constitute such written notice. Except for Office Actions and broad Patent portfolio cross license agreements that SONY has signed with third parties (\"Portfolio Cross Licenses\"), neither SONY nor any Affiliate of SONY is, to the Knowledge of SONY, a party to any settlements, covenants not to sue, consents, decrees, stipulations, judgments or orders resulting from actions which permit third parties to use any Transferred Patents or any other SRAM Intellectual Property included in the Transferred Assets. SONY has the sole right to enforce all of the Transferred Patents and the other SRAM Intellectual Property rights of SONY included in the Transferred Assets. 8.5 Sufficiency To the Knowledge of SONY, SONY and each of SONY's Affiliates owns, or has valid rights to use, all the SRAM Intellectual Property material to the conduct of the Business, including, without limitation, the design, development, manufacture, marketing, use, distribution, import, supply, provision and sale of SRAM Products. 8.6 Non-infringement by the Business As of the Effective Date, SONY has not received written notice of any pending or threatened (and at no time within the two years prior to the date of this Agreement has there been, to the Knowledge of SONY, pending any) action alleging that the activities or the conduct of the Business dilutes (solely with respect to trademark rights), misappropriates, infringes, violates or constitutes the unauthorized use of, or will dilute (solely with respect to trademark rights), misappropriate, infringe upon, violate or constitute the unauthorized use of the Intellectual Property of any third party, nor, to the Knowledge of SONY, does there exist any basis therefor. Except for Office Actions pertaining to the Transferred Patents and Patent licenses 9\n\n\n\n\n\n granted by SONY under Portfolio Cross Licenses, neither SONY nor any of SONY's Affiliates is, to the Knowledge of SONY, party to any settlement, covenant not to sue, consent, decree, stipulation, judgment, or order resulting from any action which (i) restricts SONY's or any of its Affiliate's rights to use any SRAM Intellectual Property in connection with the Business, (ii) restricts the Business in order to accommodate a third party's Intellectual Property rights or (iii) requires any future payment by SONY or any SONY Affiliate. 8.7 Infringement by a Third Party To the Knowledge of SONY, no third party is misappropriating, infringing, or violating any SRAM Intellectual Property material to the conduct of the Business that is owned by or exclusively licensed to SONY or any SONY Affiliate, and no Intellectual Property or other proprietary right, misappropriation, infringement or violation actions have been brought against any third party by SONY or any SONY Affiliate in connection with the Business. 8.8 Intellectual Property Development To the knowledge of SONY: (a) Each Person who is or has been employed by SONY or any Affiliate of SONY at any time at or prior to the date hereof in connection with the development of any SRAM Intellectual Property or technology material to the Business, or is or has provided consulting services to SONY or any Affiliate of SONY in connection with the development of any SRAM Intellectual Property or technology material to the Business at any time at or prior to the Effective Date, has signed an agreement containing appropriate confidentiality terms. (b) Except in the exercise of SONY's business judgment, other than under an appropriate confidentiality or nondisclosure agreement or contractual provision relating to confidentiality and nondisclosure, there has been no disclosure to any third party of material confidential or proprietary information or trade secrets of SONY or any Affiliate of SONY related to any SRAM Product. All current and former employees of SONY and each Affiliate of SONY who have made any material contributions to the development of any SRAM Product have signed an invention assignment agreement that assigns ownership to SONY or have performed that work in the course, and within the scope, of their employment. 10\n\n\n\n\n\n (c) All consultants and independent contractors currently or previously engaged by SONY or its Affiliates who have made any material contributions to the development of any SRAM Product (including, without limitation, all consultants and independent contractors who have designed, written, or modified any firmware or software code contained in any SRAM Product) have entered into a work-made-for-hire agreement or have otherwise assigned to SONY or a Affiliate of SONY (or a third party that previously conducted any business that forms any part of the Business currently conducted by SONY and that has subsequently assigned its rights in such SRAM Product to SONY) all of their right, title and interest (other than moral rights, if any) in and to the portions of such SRAM Product developed by them in the course of their work for SONY or any Affiliate. (d) Other than the employees, consultants and contractors referred to in this Section 8.8, no other Person has made or currently is making any material contributions to the development of any SRAM Product. 8.9 Material Intellectual Property Agreements Except for the SRAM Contracts assigned to and assumed by PURCHASER under the Asset Purchase Agreement and the Portfolio Cross Licenses, there are no contracts, licenses or agreements between SONY or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and any other Person, on the other hand, with respect to any SRAM Intellectual Property material to the conduct of the Business, including any agreements with respect to the manufacture or distribution of the SRAM Products. 8.10 Royalties To the Knowledge of SONY, except for obligations under the SRAM Contracts assigned to and assumed by PURCHASER under the Asset Purchase Agreement, neither SONY nor any Affiliate of SONY has any obligation to pay any third party any royalties or other fees for the continued use of Intellectual Property which is specifically applicable to SRAM Products, and PURCHASER will not be obligated under any contract or agreement to pay any royalties or other fees associated with SRAM Intellectual Property arising from the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 11\n\n\n\n\n\n 8.11 No Loss of Rights The consummation by SONY of the transactions contemplated hereby will not result in any violation, loss or impairment of ownership by SONY or any SONY Affiliate of, or impair or restrict the right of PURCHASER to use, any Transferred Patents or any other SRAM Intellectual Property included in the Transferred Assets, and will not require the consent of any governmental authority or third party with respect to any of Transferred Patents or any other SRAM Intellectual Property included in the Transferred Assets. 8.12 Transferability All Transferred Patents will be fully transferable, alienable or licensable by PURCHASER from and after the Closing without restriction and without payment of any kind to any third party other than requirements under applicable laws to file documents with and pay fees to patent offices. There are no Liens on any of the Transferred Patents. (For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge that SONY's licensees under Portfolio Cross Licenses already hold licenses to the Transferred Patents and do not need a license from PURCHASER to practice the Transferred Patents.) 8.13 No SRAM Product Warranty Issues To the Knowledge of SONY, each SRAM Product currently offered for sale by SONY (or its Affiliates, as the case may be) conforms with all SONY datasheet specifications, except with respect to warranty claims made in the ordinary course of business. (For the avoidance of doubt, epidemic failures or any substantial repeated failures of those products to comply with specifications that have not been resolved are not in the ordinary course of business). SONY has not received written notice from any customer, reseller, OEM customer or governmental authority alleging any such material non-conformance. 8.14 Disclaimer NOTHING IN THIS IP AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY BY EITHER PARTY OF THE VALIDITY OF ANY PATENT. NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY WHATSOEVER TO THE 12\n\n\n\n\n\n OTHER PARTY OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR OR ON ACCOUNT OF ANY INJURY, LOSS, OR DAMAGE, OF ANY KIND OR NATURE SUSTAINED BY, OR ANY DAMAGE ASSESSED OR ASSERTED AGAINST, OR ANY OTHER LIABILITY INCURRED BY OR IMPOSED UPON THE OTHER PARTY OR ANY OTHER PERSON, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH OR RESULTING FROM (A) THE PRODUCTION, USE, SALE, OFFER FOR SALE, OTHER DISPOSITIONS OR IMPORTATION OF ANY APPARATUS OR PRODUCT MADE BY THAT PARTY; OR (B) ANY ADVERTISING OR OTHER PROMOTIONAL ACTIVITIES MADE BY THAT PARTY WITH RESPECT TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING, AND EACH PARTY SHALL HOLD THE OTHER PARTY, AND ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, AGENTS, OR EMPLOYEES, HARMLESS IN THE EVENT IT, OR ITS OFFICERS, AGENTS, OR EMPLOYEES, IS HELD LIABLE.
