Further, Samsung shall not modify, create any derivative works of, duplicate, disclose, or otherwise use the Licensed Software except as expressly permitted hereunder and shall protect the Licensed Software with at least the same degree of care with which it protects its own similar confidential information (but in no event less than reasonable care). Samsung acknowledges and agrees that unauthorized modification, derivative work, duplication, disclosure, or other use of the Licensed Software may cause Immersion serious financial loss. Accordingly, in the event of any unauthorized modification, derivative work, duplication, disclosure, or other use of the Licensed Software, Samsung agrees that Immersion shall have the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief.

10.2

Immersion Ireland. Immersion Ireland warrants as follows:

(a) At the time of delivery of any Licensed Software, Immersion Ireland warrants that such Licensed Software will comply in all material respects with Immersion’s published specifications therefor. Samsung’s sole remedy with respect to breach of this warrant is set forth in Section 4.3(b).

(b) The Licensed Software, as delivered by Immersion Ireland, does not contain any known virus or any other contaminant, including but not limited to, codes, commands or instructions that, in each case, may alter, delete, erase, damage, disable, disrupt or otherwise interfere, in each case, in a manner not intended by Samsung or set forth in the applicable Immersion specifications of the Licensed Software, with the use of the Licensed Software, or any other software, data or information.

(c) Immersion Ireland warrants that, except for the Linux Modules and except as otherwise disclosed by Immersion to Samsung prior to delivery to Samsung, Immersion Ireland shall not incorporate any Open Source Software into the Licensed Software without Samsung’s prior consent.

11.

INDEMNITY.

11.1 IP Claims. Immersion Ireland agrees to (1) indemnify, hold harmless and defend Samsung against any claim, legal action, or administrative procedure filed against Samsung by a third party alleging that the Licensed Software, as used within the scope of this Agreement, infringes any patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, or other intellectual property right of any third party (an “IP Claim”), and (2) pay all damages, costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, finally awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction with respect to such IP Claim awarded against Samsung in a final judgment or settlement approved in advance and in writing by Immersion Ireland; provided that Samsung: (a) notifies Immersion Ireland in writing within thirty (30) days of commencement of such IP Claim, (b) grants Immersion Ireland sole control of the defense and settlement of the IP Claim, and (c) provides Immersion Ireland with all

[***] Confidential Treatment Requested

timely assistance, information and authority required for the defense and settlement of the IP Claim. To avoid or settle any IP Claim, Immersion Ireland, at its sole option and expense, may: (i) obtain for Samsung the right to continue to use the Licensed Software as contemplated herein, (ii) modify the Licensed Software so that it becomes non-infringing, but without materially altering its functionality, (iii) replace the Licensed Software with functionally equivalent non infringing technology, or, if options (i), (ii) and (iii) above cannot be accomplished despite Immersion Ireland’s commercially reasonable efforts, then Immersion Ireland may terminate this Agreement and, to the extent that any [***] at the time of such termination, shall [***] occurring after such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Immersion Ireland assumes no liability for IP Claims to the extent arising from or based on (i) the combination of the Licensed Software with other products not provided by Immersion Ireland where such claim would not have arisen from the use of the Licensed Software standing alone; except where such combination is necessary for or the intended use of the Licensed Software, (ii) any modification of the Licensed Software not made by or under the authority of Immersion Ireland, where such infringement would not have occurred but for such modifications, or (iii) use of any version of the Licensed Software other than the current version of the Licensed Software, if the infringement would not have occurred but for use of such non-current version. Samsung’s sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any IP Claim shall be for Immersion Ireland to perform its obligations under this Section 11.

11.2 Immersion Ireland. In the event that the Korean tax authorities indicate that such Korean tax authorities intend to review the payments made by Samsung to Immersion Ireland hereunder to determine whether any withholding tax on such payments is required under applicable Korean law or international treaty to be withheld by Samsung, Samsung shall immediately inform Immersion Ireland and Immersion Corporation in writing regarding such inquiries. Immersion Ireland and Immersion Corporation shall cooperate with Samsung on behalf of Immersion Ireland or Immersion Corporation in connection with such inquiry, and Samsung shall respond to such Korean tax authorities. However, in the event that the Korean tax authorities assert that withholding tax should have been withheld on such payments and impose such withholding tax thereafter (a “Withholding Claim”), Immersion Ireland or Immersion Corporation shall either (a) pay such withholding tax (including taxes due, penalty, interest, etc. imposed by such Korean tax authority) (collectively, the “Imposed Tax”) by the due date imposed by such Korean tax authority directly to such Korean tax authority or, if necessary, Immersion Ireland or Immersion Corporation may pay Samsung the amount equal to the Imposed Tax to comply with such Withholding Claim by Samsung as an obligatory tax payer on behalf of Immersion Ireland or Immersion Corporation, or (b) appeal such Withholding Claim through all applicable administrative and judicial sources of appeal (provided that Immersion shall pay the Imposed Tax and all related expenses to appeal such Withholding Claim according to 11.2(a) above), and Samsung shall cooperate with Immersion Ireland and Immersion Corporation in connection with such appeal. For the avoidance of doubt, Samsung may not settle any Withholding Claim without the consent of Immersion Ireland and Immersion Corporation. For the purpose of clarity, Immersion shall indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Samsung against any claim, legal action, or administrative procedure in connection with any withholding tax issues. In a reasonable opinion of an independent tax attorney agreed between the parties, if it is reasonably likely that the Korean tax authorities challenge the issue of beneficial ownership with respect to Immersion Ireland, then Samsung is entitled to withhold applicable withholding taxes. Samsung shall provide all necessary assistance to Immersion to enable Immersion to obtain a credit for any Imposed Taxes paid by Immersion (or any amounts withheld by Samsung, including any Imposed Taxes withheld by Samsung) if permitted/available under applicable law.

11.3 Immersion Ireland has executed an Application for Entitlement to Reduced Tax Rate on Domestic Source Income (for Foreign Corporation) (“Application”) attached as Exhibit D hereto, and has delivered such Application on or prior to the execution of this Agreement.

12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT WILL IMMERSION BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF PROFIT, INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS, OR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS), REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF IMMERSION HAS BEEN ADVISED, OR SHOULD HAVE BEEN AWARE, OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. EXCEPT FOR INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS AND A BREACH OF

[***] Confidential Treatment Requested

THE CONFIDENTIALITY PROVISIONS SET FORTH HEREIN, IN NO EVENT WILL IMMERSION’S LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY, EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT RECEIVED BY IMMERSION FROM SAMSUNG PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT. The parties acknowledge that the limitations of liability in this Section 12 and in the other provisions of this Agreement and the allocation of risk herein are an essential element of the bargain between the parties, without which Immersion Ireland would not have entered into this Agreement. Immersion Ireland’s pricing reflects this allocation of risk and the limitation of liability specified herein.

13.
