Subject to subsection 2.02(2), if any terms and conditions contained in a Purchase Order and/or exhibit to the Agreement conflict with any terms and conditions contained in the body of the Agreement, the order of precedence is:

Section 2.02(1) Flow-Downs. All Purchase Orders may additionally be subject to terms and conditions that Buyer flows down to Seller such that Buyer’s customer-facing obligations may be fulfilled. Such flow-downs will be reasonable and commensurate with Seller’s scope of work. Upon Seller’s request, Buyer shall provide Seller with a certificate signed by a duly authorized senior executive of Buyer, confirming that the flowed-down terms are reasonably required in order to enable or facilitate Buyer’s fulfilment of its customer-facing obligations.

Section 2.02(2) Purchase Order Additional Terms and Conditions.

Without limitation to the foregoing, Seller will provide all Personnel, tools, software, material, services, facilities, and other resources necessary to provide the Products to Buyer as set forth in the Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof. If Seller’s ability to provide the Products to Buyer in accordance with the Agreement is, or is expected by Seller to be, constrained for any reason (including any constraint in engineering Personnel, Equipment, or materials), Seller shall allocate the constrained resource(s) toward the supply of Products to Buyer, as required under the Agreement, before using any such resource for any other purpose.

Section 2.04          Exclusivity. [***]

SECTION III
PURCHASE ORDER PROCEDURE

Section 3.02          Acceptance, Rejection, and Cancellation of Purchase Orders. Seller shall accept or reject each Purchase Order within Ten (10) Business Days of receipt thereof. Seller must not reject a Purchase Order unless the additional and/or diverging terms and conditions set out therein are demonstrably unreasonable, having taken into account the terms and conditions of the Agreement.

If Seller fails to notify its acceptance or rejection within the time set forth in the first sentence of this section or otherwise commences performance under such Purchase Order, Seller will be deemed to have accepted the Purchase Order.

Section 3.03          Buyer's Right to Request Amendments to Purchase Orders. Buyer may, on Notice to Seller, request changes to a Purchase Order. The process for amending any Purchase Order shall be the same as that of the original Purchase Order, as set out in Section 3.01 and Section 3.02 hereinabove.

SECTION IV
SHIPMENT, DELIVERY AND ACCEPTANCE

Section 4.01          Shipment and Delivery Requirements. Time is of the essence under the Agreement, subject always to the terms of the Agreement. Seller shall procure materials for, Manufacture, package, mark, and ship Products strictly in the quantities, by the methods, to the Delivery Locations and by the Delivery Dates, specified in the Product Assurance Plan or in the applicable Purchase Order. Delivery times will be measured to the time that Products are actually received at the Delivery Location.

Buyer agrees that it shall not take any action to enforce any rights or remedies that it may have against Seller in connection with a failure by Seller to deliver Products within the timeframes specified in a Purchase Order until the earlier of (i) Thirty (30) days after the applicable Delivery Date; and (ii) the occurrence of an event specified in Section 18.03(c). The foregoing is without prejudice to the rights of Buyer to issue a Notice of default under the Agreement, and to exercise its rights and remedies immediately upon expiry of the Thirty (30) day period, or occurrence of an event specified in Section 18.03(c) referenced in this paragraph.

Section 4.02          Transfer of Title and Risk of Loss. Title to Products shipped under any Purchase Order passes to Buyer upon delivery. Notwithstanding any agreement between Buyer and Seller concerning transfer of title or responsibility for shipping costs, risk of loss to Products shipped under any Purchase Order passes to Buyer upon acceptance by Buyer, and Seller will bear all risk of loss or damage with respect to Products until Buyer’s acceptance of such Products in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 4.03          Inspection and Acceptance. Prior to any delivery, Seller must ensure that the Products have been sufficiently and successfully tested and qualified, namely in accordance with Exhibit B. Seller shall notify Buyer upon completion of such testing and qualification through (i) the electronic submission of a Certificate of Conformance prior to delivery; and (ii) by physically including the Certificate of Conformance at the point of delivery. Buyer shall Notify Seller of its acceptance or rejection of the delivered Products within a period not exceeding Forty Five (45) days from arrival of the Products at the Delivery Location (“Acceptance Period”). In the event of rejection, Buyer shall return the rejected Products to Seller, for a repair, replace or refund as requested by Buyer, acting reasonably. Buyer’s failure to notify Seller during the Acceptance Period shall be deemed as acceptance of the Products by Buyer. If Buyer determines, acting reasonably, that Products delivered under the Agreement are Non-Conforming Products, Buyer shall make a warranty claim in accordance with SECTION VIII.

SECTION V
PRICE, INVOICING AND PAYMENT

Section 5.01          Price. Subject to Section 5.02 and Section 5.03, Seller shall provide Products to Buyer at the Agreed Price (as defined in Section 5.02).

Buyer and Seller hereby agree to update Exhibit A pricing for any quantity line item in the event Seller offers to sell or sells same or substantially similar quantity, as per the tables set forth in Exhibit A, to any third party at a lower price than said “MDA Price”. The Parties shall reflect any adjustment to pricing under this section in an amendment to Exhibit A; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the execution and delivery of any such amendment by each of the Parties will not be a condition to the effectiveness of such price adjustment.

Section 5.03          [***]

Section 5.04          Pricing Certifications. Upon written request from Buyer, no more than once annually, Seller shall promptly provide an attestation certifying, by two duly authorized Seller representatives, that Seller and its Affiliates are adhering faithfully to the terms of the most favoured pricing, as stipulated herein. All such attestations must be accompanied by supporting sales documentation from Seller and its Affiliates for all offers to sell and sales of any similar type of work that occurred since the then-previous attestation, or since the date of a Purchase Order by Buyer, whichever is more recent. The supporting sales documentation will list all volumes and unit prices in a manner that allows verification of the pricing, redacting only third party customers' identity. Completed attestations and supporting sales documentation shall be provided to Buyer no later than Thirty (30) days from the date of Buyer's request Notice to Seller.

Section 5.05          Invoicing & Payment. Unless otherwise specified on the face of the Purchase Order, Seller shall invoice Buyer upon completion of each milestone deliverable as set out in each Purchase Order. Upon receipt of an acceptable invoice, Buyer shall pay Seller within Forty Five (45) days.

All milestones shall be invoiced in the exact sequence specified in the Purchase Order, unless agreed upon by Buyer in writing. [***]

Any amount that remains unpaid after it has become due and payable shall bear interest at a rate equal to Twelve percent (12%) per annum, compounded annually, until paid in full.

The Parties will, acting reasonably, initially attempt to favor (a) and then if that is not possible and/or commercially reasonable, proceed with (b). With respect to the above, prior to making a warranty claim, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable endeavours to attempt to resolve the Defect at the Digital Payload level, if so deemed feasible, taking into account cost and time implications for Buyer.

If Seller fails to repair or replace Products in a timely manner, Buyer may do so, and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for actual and reasonable costs and expense incurred in relation therewith.

Section 8.05          Systematic Failures. If, at any time following delivery of any number of Products, it is discovered that the Products and/or any other previously delivered Products of the same type, bear a repeated and/or predictable defect which in each case (a) cannot be addressed through screening of Products during the Manufacturing process; or (b) which causes the relevant Products to fail or otherwise fails to meet the requirements of the applicable Purchase Order(s), the Specifications and the Product Assurance Plan, as had been sufficiently evidenced by  Seller to Buyer namely through Certificates of Conformance, Seller shall:

Seller, acting reasonably, shall determine if repair or replacement is required to be performed at Seller’s plant.

In this section:

“Indemnified Losses” means all  losses, damages, costs, expenses and other liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable legal and other professional fees) incurred by or awarded against an Indemnitee in connection with an IPR Claim or that are agreed to be paid by an Indemnitee by way of settlement or compromise of an IPR Claim (provided that any such settlement or compromise either arises as a result of Buyer’s assumption of the defence of the IPR claim pursuant to Section 16.02 or is not prohibited by Section 16.04(b)); and

“IPR Claim” means any claim or action against an Indemnitee by any third party alleging that any IP Rights of Seller or Buyer’s right to use thereof or Buyer’s use or possession of the Products infringes the IP Rights of a third party.

Section 16.02          Seller shall have the right, upon providing written notice to the Indemnitees given no later than thirty (30) days after receipt of a notice of an IPR Claim (the "IP Notice Period"), to assume control of the defense, provided that Seller acknowledges, in writing, its obligation to indemnify the Indemnitees in accordance with Section 16.01.  Upon assumption of the defense by Seller, Seller shall diligently proceed with the defense of the Indemnitees, at Seller's sole cost and expense.  The Indemnitees shall cooperate with Seller in the conduct of the defense, but at the cost and expense of Seller with respect to any out-of-pocket expense incurred in relation thereto.  If Seller does not assume the defense of the claim within the IP Notice Period, Seller shall be deemed to have waived its right to defend and control the defense of the claim and the Indemnitees shall have the right, but not the obligation, to defend, compromise and settle the claim.

Notwithstanding the assumption of the defense by Seller, Buyer shall have the right to participate in (but not control) the defense, settlement, negotiation, or compromise of the third party claim, at its own cost and expense, provided, however, that if Buyer, in its reasonable judgment, after providing written notification to Seller, believes Seller's defense of such claim is being conducted in a manner that may have a significant adverse impact upon Buyer’s interests, or that the counsel selected by Seller is in a conflict of interest, Buyer shall have the right to retain separate counsel to defend the claim or settle the matter at Seller’s expense.

Section 16.03          Seller may settle or compromise any claim, provided that it first consults with Buyer and provided that any such settlement or compromise shall include a full and final release and discharge in favour of the Indemnitees.

In any such event, such termination shall constitute a termination for convenience as stipulated within Section 18.03.

Notwithstanding anything to the foregoing, any failure by a subcontractor or other entity in Seller’s supply chain at any level to meet its obligations to Seller, or any delay due to labour shortages, defective tooling, transportation difficulties, equipment failure or breakdowns, lockouts, or inability to obtain materials shall not constitute a Force Majeure Event (except where such circumstance is itself caused by a Force Majeure Event).

ARTICLE 2
INVESTOR RIGHTS

 

 

SatixFy shall permit one observer designated by MDA from time to time by written notice to SatixFy (together with any substitute individual that may designated to attend on such observer’s behalf, the “Board Observer”) to attend any regular meetings of the Board (or any relevant committees thereof) (each such meeting, a “BOD Meeting”) by telephone, video conference or, if held in person, in person, in each case at the election of the Board Observer, it being acknowledged that whether any particular BOD Meeting is via telephone, video conference or in person shall determined by SatixFy subject to its articles of association . The Board Observer shall not be a member of the Board and shall not be entitled to vote on matters presented to or discussed by the Board (or any relevant committee thereof). The Board Observer shall execute and deliver to SatixFy a confidentiality agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Observer NDA”). MDA shall cause the Board Observer to comply with all relevant SatixFy internal policies and procedures, as in effect from time to time, including with respect to insider trading and conduct. MDA will not, and will cause the Board Observer not to, take any action relating to the securities of SatixFy which would constitute or could reasonably be expected to constitute insider trading, market manipulation or any other violation of applicable Law. MDA shall promptly notify SatixFy in writing of any known breach or threatened breach of this Agreement of which MDA becomes aware, including any known misuse or misappropriation of any Confidential Information by the Board Observer.  SatixFy shall provide MDA and the Board Observer with written notice of the time and place of any BOD Meeting and all proposed actions to be taken by the Board (or any relevant committee thereof) as if the Board Observer were a member of the Board. The Board Observer shall have the right to receive all information provided to the members of the Board or any similar group performing an executive oversight or similar function (or any relevant committee thereof) as if the Board Observer was such a member, including any agendas, resolutions or other materials, in anticipation of, or at, such meeting (regular or special and whether telephonic, by video conference or otherwise), in addition to copies of the records of the proceedings or minutes of such meeting, when provided to such members, and the Board Observer shall keep such materials and information confidential in accordance with the Board Observer NDA. The Board Observer may report and disclose to MDA any and all information received or observed by the Board Observer in the Board Observer’s capacity as such; provided that, MDA shall treat such information and materials as “Confidential Information” as such term is defined under the Non-Disclosure Agreement dated March 26, 2023 between MDA and SatixFy (the “MDA NDA”) and not disclose to any Person any portion of such information and/or materials other than in accordance with the terms of the MDA NDA. SatixFy shall reimburse MDA or the Board Observer, as applicable, for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Board Observer in connection with the Board Observer’s participation in any such BOD Meeting (including, for certainty, reasonable lodging and travel expenses) and on a basis that is at least as favourable as SatixFy’s management expense and travel policies in effect at the relevant time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SatixFy may exclude Board Observer from access to any information, material or meeting or portion thereof if: (i) the Board concludes in good faith, upon advice of SatixFy’s legal counsel, that such exclusion is necessary to preserve the attorney-client or work product privilege between SatixFy or any of its Affiliates and its legal counsel; or (ii) such portion of a meeting is an executive session limited solely to independent director members of the Board, independent auditors and/or legal counsel, as the Board may designate and such limitation is reasonably necessary with respect to the applicable matters, (iii) such exclusion is necessary to avoid a conflict of interest between SatixFy and/or any of its Affiliates on the one hand and MDA and/or any of its Affiliates on the other, or (iv) the Board concludes in good faith, upon advice of SatixFy’s legal counsel, that such exclusion is necessary in order for SatixFy to comply with applicable Law.

 

 

MDA and SatixFy shall cause their respective Chief Executive Officers and two other executives from each, as selected in accordance with this Section 2.2, to form a non-Board committee (the “Executive Committee”). The Executive Committee shall serve as a forum for the regular exchange of views between MDA and SatixFy relating to the Products and may include other topics such as operations, prospects and strategies, research, development, design, manufacturing and commercialization. The Chief Executive Officer of MDA shall select two additional executives of MDA who are reasonably satisfactory to SatixFy, and the Chief Executive Officer of SatixFy shall select two additional executives of SatixFy who are reasonably satisfactory to MDA who shall form part of the Executive Committee. The inaugural meeting of the Executive Committee shall occur on or before December 31, 2023, with each subsequent meeting to occur no later than 4 months following the prior meeting of the Executive Committee (or as otherwise deemed desirable by MDA or SatixFy, but not more than once during each calendar month). The Executive Committee shall prepare its own charter at the inaugural meeting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Until successful acceptance of the space qualified Products, SatixFy shall cause SatixFy UK Limited to provide a technical update at a cadence requested by MDA (no less than monthly) on the progress on the development of the Products. This will include, at a minimum: (1) updates against an established schedule of milestones, with reasons provided for schedule changes; (2) updates on the budget required to complete the Products with reasons provided for changes; (3) a list of open issues and their status; and (4) a list of key risks and their status.

 

 

SatixFy and MDA will establish a forum for discussing the roadmaps for the Products and SatixFy will accommodate reasonable MDA requests for enhancements to the Products. In the case that agreement cannot be reached the issue will be referred to the Executive Committee for resolution.

TERM AND TERMINATION

 

 

 

 

 

 

ARTICLE 4
MISCELLANEOUS

 

 

Each Party acknowledges and agrees for itself that:

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Parties agree that irreparable harm would occur for which money damages would not be an adequate remedy at Law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief and other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce compliance with the terms of this Agreement, without any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief, this being in addition to any other remedy to which the Parties may be entitled at Law or in equity.

 

 

The terms and provisions of this Agreement are intended solely for the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and it is not the intention of the Parties to confer any third party beneficiary rights (and this Agreement does not confer any such rights) upon any Person.

 

 

Any notice, direction, consent or other communications given under this Agreement must be in writing and delivered by courier, by personal delivery or by electronic transmission (including by fax or email) as follows:

Any such communication shall be deemed to have been given and received on the day on which it was so delivered or transmitted (if a Business Day, and if not, then on the next succeeding Business Day) unless received after 5:00 pm (local time in the place of receipt) in which case it shall be deemed to have been given and received on the next succeeding Business Day.

 

A Person may change its address for service by notice given in accordance with the foregoing and any subsequent communication must be sent to such Person at its changed address.

 

 

This Agreement may only be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified by written agreement of the Parties.

 

 

The failure or delay by a Party in enforcing, or insisting upon strict performance of, any provision of this Agreement does not constitute a waiver of such provision or in any way affect the validity or enforceability of this Agreement (or any of its provisions) or deprive a Party of the right, at any time or from time to time, to enforce or insist upon strict performance of that provision or any other provision of this Agreement. Any waiver by a Party of any provision of this Agreement is effective only if in writing and signed by such Party.

 

 

The Parties agree that each of the covenants contained in this Agreement are separate and distinct. If any provision of this Agreement is determined by an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be severed from this Agreement and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect, without amendment.

 

 

Time is of the essence in this Agreement.

 

 

This Agreement shall become effective when executed by the Parties and after that time shall be binding upon the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement are assignable or transferable by a Party without the prior written consent of the other Party. Any attempt to assign any of the rights, duties or obligations in this Agreement without such written consent is void.

 

 

Each Party shall, at the request of the other Party, execute and deliver such additional assurances and perform or cause to be performed such further and other acts or things as may be reasonably required to give effect to, and carry out the intent of, this Agreement.

 

 

This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original.

Exhibit A

 

Form of Board Observer NDA

 

NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants herein, as well as other valuable consideration received, the parties agree as follows:

 

NOW, THEREFORE the parties agree as follows:

 

1.    Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means all confidential materials and information (whether or not reduced to writing) that the Observer obtains or to which the Observer obtains access as a result of his/her activities as observer to the Board or any of its Committees, including the following: (a) any and all data, information, materials, systems, processes, procedures or intellectual property owned or used by the Company and its Affiliates (as defined in the IRA, collectively with the Company, the “Group”) that is competitively sensitive or not generally known to the public, including information relating to employees, customers, commercial partners, clients, vendors or suppliers of the Group; information provided to the Observer by any of the Group employees, customers, commercial partners, vendors or suppliers; customer lists; any and all financial statements, budgets, projections and related data; information, processes, procedures or systems relating to research and development, engineering, legal matters, human resources, sourcing, operations, purchasing and manufacturing; business, marketing, advertising and sales plans or estimates; internal performance results; information relating to possible partnerships, joint ventures or acquisitions of any Person; contracts; business records, corporate books and other Group-related records; (b) any creative, scientific or technical information, drawing, design, diagram, process, plan, method, or formula; and (c) all confidential or proprietary concepts (oral or written), documentation, reports, data, specifications, computer hardware or software, source code, object code, flow charts, databases, inventions, know-how, show how and trade secrets, which pertain to the Group regardless of form and whether or not patented or patentable, copyrighted or able to be copyrighted or registered as a trademark or registrable as a trademark and all modifications, derivative works, enhancements and versions thereof.  

 

2.    Protection of Confidential Information.

 

2.1.

The Observer hereby acknowledges and represents that he/she has had the opportunity to consult with independent legal counsel regarding his/her rights and obligations under this NDA and that he/she fully understands the terms and conditions contained herein. The Observer agrees that he/she will not: (i) use, disclose, or reverse engineer the Confidential Information except as authorized by the Company or as permitted herein or (ii) upon the Observer’s removal, resignation or termination retain Confidential Information, including any copies existing in any form (including electronic form), that are in his/her possession or control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Observer may use the Confidential Information in the course of performing his/her duties as observer to the Board on behalf of MDA (the “Purpose”); provided, that such use is made in good faith.

 

2.2.

The Observer undertakes not to use or exploit the Confidential Information for its own benefit nor for the benefit of any third party, or for any purpose other than the Purpose. The Observer will use at least reasonable care to protect Confidential Information from any unauthorized use or disclosure. The Observer will not disclose the Confidential Information to any third party other than to the directors, officers, employees, counsel, accountants or other professionals or representatives of MDA (the “Representatives”) in the normal course of the performance of their duties for MDA, on a need-to-know basis (it being understood that such Representatives shall be informed by the Observer or MDA of the confidential nature of such information and shall be directed to treat such information in accordance with this Section 2). The Observer will not make any copies of the Confidential Information on any type of media other than as required for the Purpose, without the prior express written permission of the Company. The Observer shall not, and shall not permit any third party to, directly or indirectly, attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, decipher or take other similar actions with respect to the Confidential Information.

 

2.3.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the obligations of confidentiality set forth above shall not extend to Confidential Information that: (i) is or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act or omission of the Observer or MDA; (ii) is, at the time of disclosure under this NDA, already known to the Observer without restriction on disclosure; or (iii) is independently developed by the Observer without use of, reliance on, or reference to the Confidential Information, and without breach of this NDA.

 

2.4.

Upon the termination of this NDA or upon request of the Company, the Observer shall (i) return to the Company any information disclosed in any tangible form, and all copies thereof (on whatever physical, electronic or other media such information may be stored) containing any Confidential Information; if such Confidential Information is stored in electronic form, it is to be immediately deleted, including all backup and archived copies; and (ii) provide a certification in writing that the Observer has complied with all of the terms of this NDA, that he/she has retained no copies or embodiments of the Confidential Information on any media.

 

3.    No Additional Rights. All Confidential Information is and shall remain the property of the Company. Nothing in this NDA shall be construed as granting to the Observer any property rights, by license or otherwise, in the Confidential Information. This NDA does not (i) obligate the Company to disclose any of its information to the Observer and the Company may, subject to the IRA, at any time cease to provide information to the Observer without liability, and request in writing the return of information previously disclosed; (ii) obligate either party to purchase any goods or services, to offer for sale any goods or services, to negotiate, or to enter into any contract or relationship of any kind; (iii) constitute or imply the formation of a partnership, joint venture or agency relationship of any kind between the parties; or (iv) preclude either party from entering into other agreements with third parties.

 

4.    No Warranty. All Confidential Information is provided “AS IS” and without any express or implied representations or warranties regarding accuracy, operability, use or fitness for a particular purpose. The Observer agrees that the use of or reliance on any Confidential Information is done solely and exclusively at his/her own risk.

 

5.    Term. This NDA will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the removal of the Observer by MDA from his/her service as observer or MDA’s designation of a successor, and (ii) the termination of MDA’s observer rights, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the IRA, provided that the obligations relating to the Confidential Information shall survive termination and shall continue for a period of five (5) years commencing from the last date of disclosure of Confidential Information hereunder.

 

6.     Public Company.  The Observer acknowledges that it is aware that the United States securities laws prohibit any person who has material non-public information about a company from purchasing or selling securities of such company, or from communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such securities. As such, the Observer agrees not to use any Confidential Information or any other non-public information of SatixFy Communications Ltd. in connection with the purchase or sale of the securities of SatixFy Communications Ltd. in violation of applicable securities laws.

 

7.    Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This NDA shall be governed and construed solely in accordance with the laws of Israel, and the courts of Tel Aviv, shall have sole and exclusive jurisdiction in any conflict or dispute arising out of this NDA.

 

8.    Injunctive Relief. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that the provisions contained in this NDA were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Company shall be entitled (without bond) to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this NDA and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof, this being in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled by law or equity, and the Observer expressly waives any defense that a remedy in damages would be adequate.

 

9.     Miscellaneous. This NDA shall not be assignable or transferable by either party without the written consent of the other party, and any purported assignment or transfer not permitted hereunder shall be void.  Notwithstanding the aforesaid, the Company may assign this NDA to any Affiliate thereof. In the event that any of the provisions of this NDA shall be held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provisions shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this NDA shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. No failure or delay by a party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. This NDA constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the Purpose, and shall supersede all previous communications, representations, understandings and agreements, whether oral or written. This NDA may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original. All such signed counterparts, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed signature page to this NDA by electronic means (including in PDF format) shall be as valid and effective as delivery of an originally or manually executed copy of this NDA.

[Signature page follows]

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this NDA as of the date first set forth above.

When ESOP has notice of a claim or action, it shall promptly notify Depositor and Beneficiary in writing. Depositor and Beneficiary at their option and in their sole discretion, may, to the extent of their Liability hereunder, elect to control the defense of such claim or action and may elect to enter into a settlement agreement, provided that no such settlement or defense shall include any admission or implication of wrongdoing on the part of ESOP without ESOP’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably delayed or withheld.

Any such third party shall be bound by the same confidentiality obligations as ESOP.

 

 

Except for gross negligence, willful misconduct or intentional breach, ESOP’s (including its employees, agents or sub-contractors) total liability for any loss or damage caused to either Beneficiary or Depositor with regard to all claims arising under or by virtue of this Agreement or in connection with the performance or contemplated performance of this Agreement, shall not exceed the sum equal to the amount paid to ESOP hereunder. Except for negligence, willful misconduct or intentional breach, each of Beneficiary and Depositor's (including its employees, agents or sub-contractors) and liability under Section 7 (stemming from a third party claim that ESOPs permitted use of the Deposit Materials infringe upon such third party intellectual property rights) the total liability for any loss or damage caused with regard to all claims arising under or by virtue of this Agreement or in connection with the performance or contemplated performance of this Agreement, shall not exceed the sum equal to the amount paid under the MPA (including any pre-paid amount, advance or deposit, regardless of whether such amounts are refunded).

 

 

IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT BE LIABLE TO ANOTHER PARTY FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, OR ANY OTHER INDIRECT DAMAGES, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE EVEN IF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF MAY BE KNOWN IN ADVANCE TO ONE OR MORE PARTIES.

License Agreement

 

Form of Third Party Letter

---

A.	The Beneficiary and Depositor have entered into a master purchase agreement (the “MPA”) dated the date hereof providing for, inter alia, the supply by the Depositor to the Beneficiary of the Products (as defined in the MPA).

B.	The Depositor acknowledges that the Products form an integral part of the Beneficiary’s and its affiliates business, and the failure of the Beneficiary to receive the Products pursuant to the MPA would cause irreparable harm to the Beneficiary and its affiliates.

C.	Depositor desires to avoid disclosure and release of the Deposit Material (as defined herein) except under certain circumstances.

D.	Depositor and Beneficiary desire to establish an escrow with ESOP to provide for the retention, administration and access and release of the Deposit Material upon the occurrence of certain Release Conditions.

E.

To ensure the Beneficiary has continued and uninterrupted access to the Products following a Release Condition, (i) the Beneficiary and Depositor have entered into a license agreement attached as Exhibit E to this Agreement (the “License Agreement”) dated the date hereof regarding the present grant by Depositor of a license of, and other rights relating to, certain proprietary technology and other materials of Depositor, (ii) the Beneficiary, Depositor and certain third party licensors and suppliers to the Depositor (as more particularly described on Exhibit B) have entered or will enter into letters in favour of the Beneficiary (substantially in the form attached as Exhibit F to this Agreement) providing for certain rights to be extended by such third parties to the Beneficiary (the “Third Party Letters”) and (iii) the Depositor will place into escrow the Deposit Material. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the License Agreement.

F.

Depositor and Beneficiary desire this Agreement to be “supplementary” within the meaning of section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code to the License Agreement, MPA and all other related agreements and documents, and the Deposit Material (as defined below) shall be deemed “intellectual property” and/or “embodiments” of intellectual property, as the case may be, as such terms are defined and used in sections 101 and 365 of the Bankruptcy Code.

1.	Introduction

(a)

The use of the term services in this Agreement shall refer to ESOP services that facilitate the creation and management of software or other technology escrow, as described in Exhibit A attached hereto (“Services”). A Party shall request Services under this Agreement by submitting a work request to ESOP, in the form of Exhibit A, (“Work Request”).

2.	Depositor Responsibilities and Representations

(a)

Depositor shall, and shall cause its affiliates, to do all such things, and take all such action, to effect the deposit of all Deposit Material to ESOP as soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Date, including the seeking and obtaining all of the consents and approvals as may be necessary to permit the deposit thereof. Depositor shall, within five (5) calendar days of the date that the Depositor receives all such consents and approvals required to make such deposit, make an initial deposit to ESOP that is complete and functional of all proprietary technology and other materials required to support the license granted under the License Agreement, including without limitation and for greater certainty, the materials set forth inExhibit B (as updated, supplemented from time to time, the “Deposit Material”). For the sake of clarity, no technology/materials which are comprised entirely of 3rd party technology/materials will be part of the Deposit Material.  All such Deposit Material shall be deemed within the scope of “Licensed Technology” licensed by the Depositor to the Beneficiary under the License Agreement.  The Deposit Material under this Agreement shall be solely in respect of technology and other materials related to that portion of the Products (as defined in the MPA) that are the [***] chips.

(b)

Depositor shall ensure that a minimum of one (1) complete and functional copy of the Deposit Material is deposited with ESOP at all times.  In addition, Depositor shall update and supplement the Deposit Material as soon as reasonably practical following (and in any event within fourteen (14) business days of) (i) each release of a new version or update or modification of any of the Deposit Material to the extent such update or modification relates to the Products or Improvements (as defined in the License Agreement) or (ii) the creation of any new proprietary technology or other materials covered under the License Agreement. Depositor shall advise Beneficiary when an existing Third Party Letter or the third party thereunder ceases to be related to the Products or Improvements, or a new third party becomes a licensor or supplier related to the Products or  Improvements, and in the latter case shall obtain a signed Third Party Letter substantially in the form of Exhibit F from such third party, and update the Deposit Material in accordance with this Section.  At the time of each deposit, update or supplement, Depositor will provide ESOP an accurate and complete description of all of the Deposit Material sent to ESOP using the form attached hereto as Exhibit B. All other deposits and updates shall be listed on a new Exhibit B signed by Depositor, and each Exhibit B will be held and maintained separately within the escrow account. The processing of all deposits, updates and supplements shall be in accordance with this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 2 hereof.  All references in this Agreement to the Deposit Material shall include the initial Deposit Material and any subsequent updates, modifications or supplements that constitute Improvements under the License Agreement and deposited with ESOP hereunder.

(c)

As of the date hereof, Depositor shall and hereby does grant to ESOP all rights and licenses (including under all Licensed Patents and Licensed Technology, each as defined in the License Agreement), necessary to allow ESOP to lawfully perform its obligations under this Agreement, including the right and license to release and transfer to Beneficiary any Deposit Material in accordance with this Agreement.

(iv)

with the exception of the floating charges on Depositor's Intellectual Property Rights in respect of which Depositor has obtained applicable approvals, the Deposit Material is not subject to any liens or encumbrances that would prohibit, limit, or alter the rights and obligations of ESOP and/or Beneficiary under this Agreement, which shall be to the knowledge of the Depositor other than in respect of Depositor Proprietary Deposit Material;

(v)

with respect to all of the Deposit Material, neither this Agreement nor any Party’s rights thereunder or performance in accordance therewith, violates the law applicable to the Depositor and the Deposited Materials, the terms of any agreement, order, grant or other obligation of the Depositor, or the rights of any third parties, which shall be to the knowledge of the Depositor other than in respect of Depositor Proprietary Deposit Material;

(vi)

unless stated otherwise in the Third Party Arrangements, all of the Deposit Material have been deposited with all rights necessary for ESOP to verify such proprietary technology and materials;

(vii)

unless stated otherwise in the Third Party Arrangements, all of the Deposit Material is readable and useable in its then current form such that a programmer of reasonable skill could understand, compile, build, maintain, modify, correct, and operate the Deposit Material; if any portion of such Deposit Material is encrypted, the necessary decryption tools and keys to read such Deposit Material have also been deposited; and
