(a) If any Purchaser Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII, such Purchaser Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Parties in writing. The Purchaser Indemnified Party will provide the Indemnifying Parties with prompt notice of any third-party claim in respect of which indemnification is sought. The failure to provide either such notice will not affect any rights hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Parties are materially prejudiced thereby.
 
(b) If such claim involves a claim by a third-party against the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, the Indemnifying Parties may, upon notice to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, assume, through counsel of the Indemnifying Parties’ choosing and at the Indemnifying Parties’ expense, the settlement or defense thereof, and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Parties in connection therewith; provided that the Purchaser Indemnified Parties may participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by them; provided, further, that if the Purchaser Indemnified Parties reasonably determine that representation by the counsel of the Indemnifying Parties and the Purchaser Indemnified Parties may present such counsel with a conflict of interests, then the Indemnifying Parties shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties’ counsel. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.3 to the contrary, the Indemnifying Parties may not, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, settle or compromise any action or consent to the entry of any judgment, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

If the Indemnifying Parties are not contesting such claim in good faith, then the Purchaser Indemnified Parties may conduct and control, through counsel of their own choosing and at the Indemnifying Parties’ expense, the settlement or defense thereof, and the Indemnifying Parties shall cooperate with it in connection therewith. The failure of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties to participate in, conduct or control such defense shall not relieve the Indemnifying Parties’ of any obligation they may have hereunder.

ASSIGNMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

This Assignment of Intellectual Property (the “Assignment”) is entered into between Harbin Tech Full Electric Co., Ltd., a People’s Republic of China limited liability company ("Purchaser") and Harbin Taifu Auto Electric Co., Ltd. (哈尔滨泰夫汽炚电气有榰公司), a People’s Republic of China limited liability company ("Seller") this [______] day of [______], 2007. Terms used but not defined in this Assignment shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Asset Purchase Agreement (defined below).

WHEREAS, the parties have entered into a certain Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of June 16, 2007 (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Seller, Purchaser, the Shareholders and Harbin pursuant to which the Seller has agreed to enter into this Assignment.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the premises and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, adequacy and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
 
1.  Assignment. Seller hereby assigns to Purchaser exclusively throughout the world all right, title and interest (choate or inchoate) in (i) the subject matter referred to in Annex A (“Technology”); (ii) all patents, patent applications of any kind, patent rights, inventions, discoveries and invention disclosures (whether or not patented); (iii) all trade names, trade dress, brands, logos, packaging design, slogans, Internet domain names, all phone numbers of Seller, registered and unregistered trademarks and service marks and related registrations and applications for registration; (iv) copyrights in both published and unpublished works, including all compilations, databases and computer programs, source code, object code, manuals and other documentation and all copyright registrations and applications, and all derivatives, translations, adaptations and combinations of the above; (v) know-how, trade secrets, confidential or proprietary information, research in progress, knowledge, methods, algorithms, data, designs, processes, formulae, drawings, diagrams, schematics, blueprints, flow charts, models, strategies, prototypes, techniques, benchmark data, testing procedures and testing results; (vi) other intellectual property rights and/or proprietary rights relating to any of the foregoing; and (vii) goodwill, franchises, licenses, permits, Consents, approvals, and claims of infringement against third parties (collectively, “Seller Intellectual Property”).

2.  Consideration. Purchaser and Seller, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration listed in the Asset Purchase Agreement, acknowledge this consideration to be satisfactory and adequate.

3.1  Further Assurances; Moral Rights; Competition; Marketing. Seller agrees to assist Purchaser in every legal way to evidence, record and perfect the Section 1 assignment and to apply for and obtain recordation of and from time to time enforce, maintain, and defend the assigned rights. If Purchaser is unable for any reason whatsoever to secure the Seller’s signature to any document it is entitled to under this Section 3.1, Seller hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Purchaser and its duly authorized officers and agents, as his agents and attorneys-in-fact with full power of substitution to act for and on his behalf and instead of Seller, to execute and file any such document or documents and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the purposes of the foregoing with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Seller.
 

 
3.2  To the extent allowed by law, Section 1 includes all rights of paternity, integrity, disclosure and withdrawal and any other rights that may be known as or referred to as “moral rights,” “artist’s rights,” “droit moral” or the like (collectively “Moral Rights”). To the extent Seller retains any such Moral Rights under applicable law, Seller hereby ratifies and consents to, and provides all necessary ratifications and consents to, any action that may be taken with respect to such Moral Rights by or authorized by Purchaser; Seller agrees not to assert any Moral Rights with respect thereto. Seller will confirm any such ratifications, consents and agreements from time to time as requested by Purchaser.

4.  Confidential Information. Seller will not use or disclose anything assigned to Purchaser hereunder or any other technical or business information or plans of Purchaser, except to the extent Seller can document that it is generally available (through no fault of Seller) for use and disclosure by the public without any charge, license or restriction. Seller recognizes and agrees that there is no adequate remedy at law for a breach of this Section 4, that such a breach would irreparably harm Purchaser and that Purchaser is entitled to equitable relief (including, without limitations, injunctions) with respect to any such breach or potential breach in addition to any other remedies.

5.  Warranty. Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser that Seller (i) was the sole owner (other than Purchaser) of all rights, title and interest in the Intellectual Property and the Technology, (ii) has not assigned, transferred, licensed, pledged or otherwise encumbered any Intellectual Property or the Technology or agreed to do so, (iii) has full power and authority to enter into this Assignment and to make the assignment as provided in Section 1, (iv) is not aware of any violation, infringement or misappropriation of any third party’s rights (or any claim thereof) by the Intellectual Property or the Technology, (v) was not acting within the scope of employment by any third party when conceiving, creating or otherwise performing any activity with respect to anything purportedly assigned in Section 1, and (vi) is not aware of any questions or challenges with respect to the patentability or validity of any claims of any existing patents or patent applications relating to the Intellectual Property.

6. Miscellaneous. This Assignment is not assignable or transferable by Seller without the prior written consent of Purchaser; any attempt to do so shall be void. Any notice, report, approval or consent required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given if delivered personally or mailed by first-class, registered or certified U.S. mail, postage prepaid to the respective addresses of the parties as set below (or such other address as a party may designate by ten (10) days notice). No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of either party, any privilege, any power or any rights hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right or power hereunder preclude further exercise of any other right hereunder. If any provision of this Assignment shall be adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Assignment shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. Any waivers or amendments shall be effective only if made in writing and signed by a representative of the respective parties authorized to bind the parties.

7. Applicable Law. This Assignment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Section 9.7 of the Asset Purchase Agreement.
 
8. Headings. The section headings contained herein are for convenience only and shall not be construed as part of this Assignment.
 
9. Successors and Assigns. This Assignment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each of the Seller and Purchaser and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Assignment may not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise without the express written consent of Seller and Purchaser (which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Seller or Purchaser).
