ARTICLE 1

THE TRANSACTIONS

1.1 Transferred Assets. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Seller and Selling Subsidiary shall (and, where applicable, shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to) sell, transfer, assign, convey and deliver to Buyer or one or more of its

Subsidiaries, and Buyer shall (and, where applicable, shall cause its Subsidiaries to) purchase, acquire and accept from Seller, Selling Subsidiary and their respective Subsidiaries, all right, title and interest of Seller, Selling Subsidiary and their respective Subsidiaries in, to and under (a) all of the assets, properties and rights (including contractual rights) of every kind and description, real, personal or mixed, tangible or intangible, wherever located, and whether or not reflected on the financial statements or other books and records of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, exclusively used in the Business as it is operated by Seller and its Subsidiaries as of the date hereof and on the Closing Date and (b) the Transferred PCIe Assets (collectively, the “Transferred Assets”), free and clear of all Liens.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Transferred Assets shall include the following, whether or not any of such assets, properties or rights have any value for accounting purposes or are carried or reflected on or specifically referred to in Seller’s or any Affiliate of Seller’s financial statements:

(b) all Transferred Tangible Property;

(d) all Transferred IP;

(e) all Transferred Leases;

(f) all Transferred Contracts;

(g) all Transferred Permits;

(h) all Transferred Books and Records;

(i) all Transferred Claims;

(j) all assets set forth on Schedule 1.1(j); and

(k) copies of all files and records associated with Transferred Employees.

1.2 Excluded Assets. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, all assets of Seller and its Subsidiaries that are not Transferred Assets (collectively, the “Excluded Assets”) shall remain the property of Seller and its Subsidiaries as of the Closing and shall not be transferred to or otherwise acquired by Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions contemplated hereby. Excluded Assets shall include (and in no event shall the definitions of the Transferred Assets listed in Section 1.1 be deemed to include): (a) any interests of Seller and its Subsidiaries in Real Property other than the Transferred Leases; (b) any Hazardous

Material waste created prior to the Closing; (c) any Hazardous Material not required for or reasonably expected to be required for the continued conduct of the Business after the Closing in the manner being conducted or planned to be conducted at the Closing; (d) all Accounts Receivable of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries; (e) all Tax refunds and credits of Seller; (f) all Tax books and records and Tax-related documents of Seller and its Subsidiaries; (g) all Business Employee Benefit Plans and any assets of such Business Employee Benefit Plans; (h) all human resources documents related to any Business Employee who is not a Transferred Employee; (i) any product developed, manufactured, distributed or sold by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (or by any other Person whose Liability Seller or any of its Subsidiaries has retained or assumed either contractually or by operation of Law) other than the Business Products; (j) all Licensed IP; (k) any assets set forth in Section 4.4(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule that are not specifically scheduled as Transferred Assets on any Schedule to this Agreement; (l) any Third Party Components, other than Open Source Software, set forth in Section 4.11(j) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule that are not specifically scheduled as Transferred Assets on any Schedule to this Agreement; (m) any Third Party Components that are Open Source Software set forth in Section 4.11(k) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule that are not specifically scheduled as Transferred Assets on any Schedule to this Agreement; (n) any items listed in Section 4.8(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule that are not specifically scheduled as Transferred Assets on any Schedule to this Agreement; and (o) all Contracts that are not Transferred Contracts.

1.3 Assumed Liabilities. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing, Buyer shall accept, assume and agree to pay, perform or otherwise discharge, in accordance with the respective terms and subject to the respective conditions thereof, only the Assumed Liabilities. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Assumed Liabilities” means the Liabilities specifically set forth or described in paragraphs (a) through (g) below, whether or not any such Liabilities have a value for accounting purposes or are carried or reflected in or specifically referred to in Seller’s or any Affiliate of Seller’s financial statements:

(a) all Liabilities arising after the Closing under the Transferred Leases and Transferred Contracts, but only to the extent such obligations (i) do not directly arise from or directly relate to any violation, breach or default by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries of any provision of any of such Transferred Leases or Transferred Contracts, and (ii) do not directly arise from or directly relate to any event, circumstance or condition occurring or existing prior to the Closing that constitutes or has resulted in, or, with notice or lapse of time, would constitute or result in, a violation, breach or default of any such Transferred Leases or Transferred Contracts or, in the case of the Transferred Leases, a liability to the lessee, under applicable Law;

(f) Transfer Taxes and Property Taxes to the extent specifically allocated to Buyer pursuant to Sections 9.2 and 9.3; and

(g) all Liabilities arising after the Closing that exclusively relate to the Business, other than Liabilities arising after the Closing under the Transferred Leases and Transferred Contracts but which, pursuant to the proviso in Section 1.3(a), are not Assumed Liabilities.

1.4 Excluded Liabilities. Seller, Selling Subsidiary and Buyer hereby expressly acknowledge and agree that Buyer shall only accept, assume and agree to pay, perform or otherwise discharge the Assumed Liabilities hereunder and the Assumed Liabilities shall not include, and neither Seller nor any Subsidiary of Seller shall assign to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement, and Buyer shall not accept or assume or be obligated to pay, perform or otherwise assume or discharge, any Liabilities of Seller or any Affiliate of Seller, whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, absolute, contingent or otherwise pursuant to or under the Excluded Liabilities.

(f) except as expressly provided for in Article 8 and Section 1.3(c), all Liabilities under or relating to (i) Business Employee Benefit Plans, including any accrued vacation or paid time off balances held by Business Employees at the Closing, and (ii) any claims by current, former or prospective Employees (and their covered dependents or beneficiaries) which are based on acts or omissions by Seller or its Subsidiaries which occurred prior to the Closing;

1.5 Legal Transfer and Physical Delivery.

(a) The Transferred Assets shall be sold, conveyed, transferred, assigned and delivered, and the Assumed Liabilities shall be assumed, pursuant to transfer and assumption agreements and such other instruments in such form as may be necessary or appropriate to effect a conveyance of the Transferred Assets and an assumption of the Assumed Liabilities in the jurisdictions in which such transfers are to be made.

(b) Seller and Selling Subsidiary will (i) prepare for the removal and relocation of any Transferred Tangible Property located at facilities that are not to be purchased, assigned, subleased, transferred to or otherwise occupied by Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in connection with the Transactions, or, if a third party facility, the Contract for which is not a Transferred Contract (each such facility, an “Excluded Seller Facility”) and remove and relocate such Transferred Assets from the relevant Excluded Seller Facility prior to the Closing, and (ii) prepare for the removal and relocation of any tangible Excluded Assets located at facilities that are to be purchased, assigned or transferred to Buyer and its Subsidiaries and not subleased or otherwise occupied by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries following the Closing pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement entered into in connection with the Transactions (each such facility, a “Post-Closing Buyer Facility”) and remove and relocate such Excluded Assets from the relevant Post-Closing Buyer Facility prior to the Closing. The reasonable costs of any such removal and relocation shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller. Subject to the provisions hereof, each of Seller, Selling Subsidiary and Buyer agrees to cooperate, and agrees to cause their respective Subsidiaries, as applicable, to cooperate with each other, and provide each other all assistance reasonably requested by the other party in connection with the planning and implementation of the removal and relocation of any such Transferred Assets or Excluded Assets to such location as Buyer or Seller, as applicable, will designate.

(c) Transfer and delivery of the Transferred IP and Licensed Technology shall include physical or electronic delivery of all Transferred IP and Licensed Technology, including delivery or production of Documentation Deliverables and other appropriate documentation thereof as reasonably requested by Buyer to facilitate the transfer and operation of the Business. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith to define and transfer such Transferred IP and Licensed Technology, but it is understood and acknowledged that Seller and Selling Subsidiary are ultimately responsible for delivering (i) the Transferred IP and (ii) the Licensed Technology, to the extent (A) reasonably requested by Buyer or (B) reasonably necessary in order to exercise the rights granted to Buyer with respect to such Licensed Technology. To the maximum extent commercially practicable, all Software and each other Transferred Asset capable of delivery by electronic means to be delivered hereunder shall be delivered by electronic means in a manner reasonably specified by Buyer. Except as expressly permitted in the License Agreement or in the Transition Services Agreement, neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller shall retain in its possession or control any Transferred IP or Transferred Technology or any copy thereof.

(d) From time to time following the Closing, Seller, Selling Subsidiary and Buyer shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further conveyances, notices, assumptions, releases, powers of attorney and acquittances and such other instruments, and shall take such further actions, as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to fully and effectively transfer, assign and convey to Buyer and its Subsidiaries and their respective successors or assigns, all of the properties, rights, titles, interests, estates, remedies, powers and privileges intended to be conveyed to Buyer and its Subsidiaries under this Agreement and to fully and effectively transfer, assign and convey to Buyer and its Subsidiaries and their respective successors and assigns, the Assumed Liabilities intended to be assumed by Buyer and its Subsidiaries under this Agreement, and to otherwise make effective the Transactions contemplated hereby and to confirm the right, title or interest of Buyer and its Subsidiaries in the Transferred Assets, to put Buyer and its Subsidiaries in actual possession and operating control thereof, including (i) transferring back to Seller and its Subsidiaries any Liability not contemplated by this Agreement to be an Assumed Liability, which Liability was transferred to Buyer and its Subsidiaries at Closing and (ii) transferring to Buyer and its Subsidiaries any Liability contemplated by this Agreement to be an Assumed Liability which was not transferred and/or delivered to Buyer and its Subsidiaries at Closing.

(e) From time to time after the Closing, Seller and Selling Subsidiary shall (and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to) execute and deliver such other instruments of transfer and

-6-

documents related thereto and take such other action as Buyer may reasonably request in order to more effectively transfer to Buyer and its Subsidiaries, and to place Buyer and its Subsidiaries in possession and control of, the Transferred Assets, or to enable Buyer and its Subsidiaries to exercise and enjoy all rights and benefits of Seller and its Subsidiaries with respect thereto. Buyer shall take such actions as Seller may reasonably request in order to assure Buyer and its Subsidiaries’ assumption of the Assumed Liabilities. With respect to any Transferred Lease, Buyer shall cooperate with Seller in attempting to obtain any necessary consents in connection with such transfer, including without limitation (a) providing financial statements and references as may be reasonably requested by the lessor under such Transferred Lease, (b) agreeing to any amendments to such Transferred Lease as may be reasonably requested by the lessor under such Transferred Lease and (c) entering into a direct lease with the lessor, if reasonably requested by the lessor and on terms that are not materially more adverse to Buyer in comparison to those of the Transferred Lease or otherwise acceptable to Buyer in its reasonable discretion.

(f) If, during the four-year period after the Closing, Buyer determines in good faith that any material asset that falls within the definition of a “Transferred Asset” was not included on a Schedule and/or not transferred to Buyer as of the Closing, Seller or its Subsidiary, as applicable, shall promptly, without payment of further consideration by Buyer, transfer and assign such asset to Buyer, which assignment shall be deemed to have been effective as of the Closing, the relevant Schedule shall be amended accordingly, as applicable, and upon such transfer Buyer and its Affiliates (as applicable) shall grant to Seller and its Affiliates (as defined in the License Agreement) a license to such asset as a “Memory Controller Patent,” “PCIe Patent,” “Other Licensed Transferred Intellectual Property Right,” or “Licensed Transferred PCIe Technology,” as applicable, under the terms of the License Agreement with respect to products of Seller and its Affiliates (as defined in the License Agreement) as then used or under development. If, during the four-year period after the Closing, Seller determines in good faith that any material asset (excluding any asset listed as a Transferred Asset on a Schedule to this Agreement, which may not be requested by Seller) was, but should not have been, transferred to Buyer as of the Closing, Buyer or its Subsidiary, as applicable, shall promptly, without payment of consideration by Seller, transfer and assign such asset to Seller, and upon such transfer Seller and its Affiliates (as applicable) shall grant to Buyer and its Affiliates a license to such asset as “Licensed IP” under the terms of the License Agreement with respect to products of Buyer and its Affiliates as then used or under development. Any dispute regarding whether an asset should be assigned hereunder shall be resolved in accordance with Section 13.11.

1.6 Non-Assignable Assets.

(a) Nothing in this Agreement nor the consummation of the Transactions contemplated hereby shall be construed as an attempt or agreement to sell, transfer, assign, convey or deliver any asset, property or right to Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (provided, that this Section 1.6(a) shall not affect whether any asset, property or right shall be deemed to be a Transferred Asset for any other purpose under this Agreement, including for purposes of Article 4) or for Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries and their respective successors and assigns to assume any Assumed Liability which by its terms or by Law is not transferable or assignable, as applicable, without the consent or waiver of a third party or is cancelable by a third party in the event of such a transfer or assignment without the consent or waiver of such third party, in each case unless and until such consent or waiver shall have been obtained (collectively, the “Non-Assignable Assets”).

(b) Seller shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use its and their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any consent or waiver that is required for Seller and its Subsidiaries to sell, transfer, assign, convey and deliver the Transferred Assets to Buyer and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the third party to any Transferred Asset conditions its grant of a consent (including by threatening to exercise a

“recapture” or other termination right) upon, conditions its agreement to enter into a Replacement Contract upon, or otherwise requires in response to a notice or consent request regarding this Agreement, the payment of a consent fee, “profit sharing” payment or other consideration, or the provision of additional security (including a guaranty) (each, a “Transfer Fee”), (i) Seller shall be responsible for the payment of any Transfer Fee for a Transferred Asset or Replacement Contract that is exclusively related to the Business and (ii) the Parties shall share equally in the payment of a Transfer Fee for a Transferred Asset or a Replacement Contract that is not exclusively related to the Business; provided that in the case of clause (ii), the terms of such Transfer Fee shall be subject to both Buyer’s and Seller’s approval, in each case not to be unreasonably withheld. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, in the event any such consent, waiver or Replacement Contract cannot be obtained prior to Closing, (i) the Non-Assignable Assets subject thereto and affected thereby shall be held, as of and from the Closing, by Seller or the Selling Subsidiary, as applicable, in trust for the benefit of Buyer, and all benefits and obligations existing thereunder shall be for Buyer’s account, (ii) Buyer shall pay, perform or otherwise discharge (in accordance with the respective terms and subject to the respective conditions thereof, and in the name of Seller or the Selling Subsidiary) all of the covenants and obligations of Seller or Selling Subsidiary, as applicable, incurred after the Closing with respect to such Non-Assignable Assets, (iii) Seller or Selling Subsidiary, as applicable, shall take or cause to be taken at its own expense such actions in its name or otherwise as Buyer may reasonably request so as to provide Buyer with the benefits of such Non-Assignable Assets and to effect the collection of money or other consideration that becomes due and payable under such Non-Assignable Assets, and promptly pay over to Buyer all money or other consideration received by it in respect of such Non-Assignable Assets, and (iv) the Parties, as applicable, shall mutually cooperate to provide any other alternative arrangements as may be reasonably required to implement the purposes of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements. If and when such consent or waiver is obtained following Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, sell, transfer, assign, convey and deliver such Non-Assignable Asset to Buyer or its applicable Subsidiaries for no additional consideration.

(c) As of and from the Closing, Seller and Selling Subsidiary authorize (and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to authorize) Buyer (and, to the extent applicable, each of its Subsidiaries), to the extent permitted by applicable Law and the terms of the Non-Assignable Assets, at Buyer’s expense, to perform all the obligations and receive all the benefits of Seller, Selling Subsidiary and their respective Subsidiaries under the Non-Assignable Assets.

1.7 Shared Contracts.

(a) Schedule 1.7(a) sets forth a list of all Shared Contracts.

(b) Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts prior to the Closing to cause the counterparty to (i) each Shared Contract listed on Schedule 1.7(b) (each, a “Required Shared Contract”) and (ii) each other Shared Contract that is not a Required Shared Contract that Buyer identifies as a Shared Contract that Buyer desires to assume in part or with respect to which Buyer desires to enter into a Replacement Contract (A) in writing to Seller within thirty (30) days after the date hereof (the “Shared Contract Election Date”) or (B) on Schedule 3.3(b)(v) (each an “Identified Shared Contract”), to consent to a partial assignment to Buyer or one or more of its Subsidiaries that is not subject to termination by the Seller or its Subsidiaries of such portions of such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract that are exclusive to the Business (each such assignment, a “Partial Shared Contract Assignment”), or to otherwise enter into a Replacement Contract for such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract, in each case as of the Closing, and Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Seller with regard to the foregoing.

-8-

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a counterparty to any Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract at any time conditions its grant of a consent (including by threatening to exercise a “recapture” or other termination right) upon, conditions its agreement to enter into a Replacement Contract upon, or otherwise requires in response to a notice or consent request regarding this Agreement the payment of a Transfer Fee, (i) Seller shall be responsible for the payment of any such Transfer Fee for (A) any Partial Shared Contract Assignment and (B) any Replacement Contract for a Required Shared Contract and (ii) the Parties shall share equally in the payment of any Transfer Fee for any Replacement Contract for an Identified Shared Contract that, as of the date of this Agreement, does not apply solely to the Business, and the terms of such Transfer Fee referenced in this clause (ii) shall be subject to both Buyer’s and Seller’s approval, in each case not to be unreasonably withheld. Seller shall, or shall cause one or more of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, to consummate each (i) Partial Shared Contract Assignment and (ii) Replacement Contract for a Required Shared Contract. Any condition to closing related to a Required Shared Contract for which there is a Replacement Contract for such Required Shared Contract shall be deemed to be waived by Buyer.

(d) With respect to each Required Shared Contract and each Identified Shared Contract, until the earlier of (i) the date that is twelve (12) months after the Closing Date and (ii) the date such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract is acquired by Buyer or its Subsidiary through a Partial Shared Contract Assignment or a Replacement Contract, Seller shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, take any action to terminate prior to its expiration such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract, or take any action or fail to take any action that would permit the other party to any such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract to terminate prior to its expiration such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract; provided that Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, shall be able to terminate such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract pursuant to the terms of such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract in the event of a material breach by any counterparty thereto. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of any circumstances which could reasonably be expected to result in any such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall not be required to partially assign to Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries any of the Shared Contracts for which consent has not been obtained.

(e) With respect to each Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract for which the arrangements described in Section 1.7(b) could not be entered into prior to the Closing Date, Seller agrees to continue to use its commercially reasonable efforts for a period of six (6) months from and after the Closing Date to cause the counterparty to each such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract to consent to a Partial Shared Contract Assignment of such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract to Buyer or one or more of its Subsidiaries, or to otherwise enter into a Replacement Contract for such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract. Until any such consent or Replacement Contract is obtained, Seller and Buyer will use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in any lawful and reasonable arrangement which will provide Buyer and its Subsidiaries the obligations and benefits of any such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract with respect to the Business, including subcontracting, licensing, sublicensing, leasing or subleasing to Buyer and its Subsidiaries any or all of Seller’s and its Subsidiaries’ rights and obligations with respect to such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract with respect to the Business. With respect to that portion of the Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract that Buyer has notified Seller pursuant to the first sentence of Section 1.7(b) that it desires to assume in part, Buyer shall (i) bear the sole responsibility for completion of the work or provision of goods and services, (ii) be solely entitled to all benefits thereof, economic or otherwise, (iii) be solely responsible for any warranty or breach thereof, and any repurchase, indemnity and service obligations thereof, and (iv) promptly reimburse the reasonable costs and expenses of Seller and its Affiliates related thereto. If and when such consents or approvals are obtained or such other required actions have been taken, the partial assignment of such Required Shared Contract or Identified Shared Contract will be effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

In the event that Buyer notifies Seller in writing that Buyer will pay a Transfer Fee in full to the applicable third party under this Agreement, Seller shall promptly pay its portion of any such Transfer Fee to Buyer and Buyer shall promptly pay such Transfer Fee in full to such third party.

ARTICLE 2

PURCHASE PRICE

2.1 Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Transferred Assets (the “Purchase Price”) shall be (i) a cash payment of One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) (the “Unadjusted Purchase Price”), as adjusted pursuant to the terms of Section 2.2, payable by Buyer (or any of Buyer’s Affiliates in accordance with Section 13.4(a)) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, plus (ii) assumption by Buyer (or one or more of its Subsidiaries) of the Assumed Liabilities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

2.2 Purchase Price Adjustments.

(ii) “Closing Inventory” shall mean the actual number of units of Inventory that at the Closing would be Transferred Inventory, measured by Inventory Component Type, as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(iii) “Closing Inventory Value” shall mean the actual dollar value of the Closing Inventory of an Inventory Component Type calculated according to the valuation methodology set forth on Schedule 2.2(a)(iii), as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(iv) “Target Closing Inventory” shall have the meaning set forth in Schedule 2.2(a).

(b) No later than seven (7) Business Days prior to the date preliminarily agreed to by the Parties as the Closing Date (subject to all conditions thereto), Seller shall deliver to Buyer a statement (the “Pre-Closing Statement”) setting forth Seller’s good faith estimate of (i) the Target Closing Inventory Value for each Inventory Component Type, (ii) the Accrued Employee Liabilities, (iii) the Retention Payments and (iv) a calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price based on the foregoing amounts (the amount so calculated being referred to herein as the “Estimated Adjusted Purchase Price”), together with reasonably detailed supporting documentation for such calculations and any additional documentation and information reasonably requested by Buyer (which shall be promptly provided by Seller).

(c) At the Closing, pursuant to this Section 2.2(c) and Section 3.2(b)(i), Buyer shall deliver to Seller a cash payment in immediately available funds in an amount equal to the Estimated Adjusted Purchase Price as set forth in the Pre-Closing Statement.

(d) As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date (the “Post-Closing Statement Date”), Buyer may deliver to Seller a statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”) setting forth Buyer’s calculation of (i) the Closing Inventory Value (and each component thereof), (ii) the Accrued Employee Liabilities, (iii) the Retention Payments and (iv) a calculation of the Adjusted Purchase Price based on the foregoing amount, together with reasonably detailed supporting documentation for such calculations and any additional documentation and information reasonably requested by Seller (which shall be promptly provided by Buyer).

(e) After the delivery of a Post-Closing Statement, Buyer shall provide Seller and its representatives with reasonable access (with the right to make copies), during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, to the work papers of Buyer related to the preparation of the Post-Closing Statement, as well as to any of the property and facilities and such books and records, correspondence and other relevant documentation and information of Buyer related to the Business, and Buyer shall make available its employees knowledgeable about the information used in, and the preparation of, the Post-Closing Statement. Seller shall have thirty (30) calendar days following its receipt of the Post-Closing Statement (the “Review Period”) to review the same together with all documentation and information requested in accordance with this Section 2.2(e) (which shall be promptly provided by Buyer). On or before the expiration of the Review Period, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a written statement accepting or disputing the Post-Closing Statement. In the event that Seller shall dispute the Post-Closing Statement, such statement shall include a detailed itemization of Seller’s objections and the reasons therefor (such statement, a “Dispute Statement”). Any component of the Estimated Adjusted Purchase Price that is not disputed in a Dispute Statement shall be final and binding on the Parties and not subject to appeal. If Seller delivers a statement to Buyer accepting the Post-Closing Statement or does not deliver a Dispute Statement to Buyer within the Review Period, the Post-Closing Statement shall be final and binding on the Parties and not subject to appeal.

(f) If Seller delivers a Dispute Statement during the Review Period, Buyer and Seller shall promptly meet and attempt in good faith to resolve their differences with respect to the disputed items set forth in the Dispute Statement during the thirty (30) calendar days immediately following Buyer’s receipt of the Dispute Statement, or such longer period as Buyer and Seller may mutually agree (the “Resolution Period”). Any such disputed items that are resolved by Buyer and Seller during the Resolution Period shall be final and binding on the Parties and not subject to appeal. If Buyer and Seller do not resolve all such disputed items by the end of the Resolution Period, Buyer and Seller shall submit all items then remaining in dispute with respect to the Dispute Statement to the Accounting Firm for

-11-

review and resolution (with each Party preparing a submission to the Accounting Firm that reflects all revisions made to such Party’s proposal as a result of the negotiations during the Resolution Period and outlining the items that remain in dispute at the time of the submission only). The Accounting Firm shall act as an expert and not an arbitrator. The Accounting Firm (i) shall determine only those items remaining in dispute between Buyer and Seller, and (ii) shall only be permitted or authorized to determine an amount with respect to any such disputed item that is either the amount of such disputed item as proposed by Buyer in the Post-Closing Statement or the amount of such disputed item as proposed by Seller in the Dispute Statement. Each of Buyer and Seller shall (A) enter into a customary engagement letter with the Accounting Firm at the time such dispute is submitted to the Accounting Firm and otherwise cooperate with the Accounting Firm, (B) have the opportunity to submit a written statement in support of their respective positions with respect to such disputed items, to provide supporting material to the Accounting Firm in defense of their respective positions with respect to such disputed items and to submit a written statement responding to the other party’s position with respect to such disputed items and (C) subject to customary confidentiality and indemnity agreements, provide the Accounting Firm with access to their respective books, records, personnel and representatives and such other information as the Accounting Firm may require in order to render its determination. The Accounting Firm shall be instructed to deliver to Buyer and Seller a written determination (such determination to include a worksheet setting forth all material calculations used in arriving at such determination and to be based solely on information provided to the Accounting Firm by Buyer and Seller) of the disputed items within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of the disputed items, which determination shall be final and binding on the Parties hereto and not subject to appeal. All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Accounting Firm will be allocated between Buyer, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the disputed items so submitted to the Accounting Firm that is unsuccessfully disputed by each such party (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the total disputed amount of such items so submitted. Neither Party shall engage in ex parte communications with the Accounting Firm with respect to the Transactions until the Accounting Firm issues its final determination.

(g) In the event that no Post-Closing Statement is delivered within the period provided in Section 2.2(d), the Estimated Adjusted Purchase Price shall be the “Final Adjusted Purchase Price.” In the event that a Post-Closing Statement is delivered within the period provided in Section 2.2(d), the Adjusted Purchase Price, as determined in accordance with the final, binding and nonappealable resolution of the calculation of the amount of Closing Inventory Value and Accrued Employee Liabilities, shall be the “Final Adjusted Purchase Price.” As soon as practicable (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) following the determination of the Final Adjusted Purchase Price, if the Estimated Adjusted Purchase Price is greater than the Final Adjusted Purchase Price, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a cash amount equal to such excess in immediately available funds by wire transfer to an account or accounts designated in writing by Buyer.

-44-

submissions with any foreign Governmental Authority that are required by the Antitrust Laws of any applicable foreign jurisdiction or be deemed desirable by Buyer, in each case as Buyer may deem necessary and/or appropriate.

7.4 Notification of Certain Matters.

(a) Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of (i) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event that would reasonably be expected to cause any representation or warranty of Seller or Selling Subsidiary set forth in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate at or prior to the Closing, (ii) any failure of Seller or Selling Subsidiary to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it hereunder in any material respect, and (iii) the occurrence or failure of any event, that, individually or in the aggregate, results in a Business Material Adverse Effect.

third party makes any proposal, offer, inquiry or contact with respect to any of the foregoing (including the terms thereof and the identity of such third party). Seller shall be deemed to have breached the terms of this Section 7.6 if any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their respective Affiliates, representatives, officers, employees, directors or agents takes any action, whether in his or her capacity as such or in any other capacity, that is prohibited by this Section 7.6. “Acquisition Proposal” means any proposal or offer, or an inquiry relating to a proposal or offer, from any Person (other than Buyer and its Affiliates in connection with the Transactions) for any (i) direct or indirect acquisition of the Business or any portion of the Transferred Assets (other than Inventory in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice), whether by sale of stock, sale of assets, merger, recapitalization or otherwise or (ii) any joint venture or other non-ordinary course strategic investment involving the Business or any portion of the Transferred Assets.

7.7 Public Statements. Except as necessary to comply with any listing agreement with any national securities exchange or stock market or applicable securities Laws, as permitted pursuant to or consistent with prior disclosures made pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 7.7, or otherwise required by Law, prior to the Closing, neither Buyer nor Seller shall, without the prior written consent of the other, directly or indirectly make or issue any public statement or other communication to the public or to any third party not bound to the disclosing Party by obligations of confidentiality regarding the subject matter of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Agreements, or the terms and conditions hereof or thereof, including, if applicable, the termination of this Agreement and the reasons therefor, or any disputes or arbitration proceedings hereunder or thereunder. Buyer and Seller shall issue mutually agreed press releases and shall file mutually agreed Forms 8-K promptly following the date hereof. After the Closing, Buyer or Seller may issue any releases of information without the consent of any other Party. The Parties agree and acknowledge that Buyer or Seller may file this Agreement and disclose the acquisition of the Business in its periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and discuss the acquisition of the Business otherwise as required by Law, including without limitation discussion of the proposed sale or acquisition of the Business during any earnings or any other investor calls or presentations, provided such disclosures are materially consistent with the disclosures included in any periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

7.8 Insurance. Following the Closing, to the extent permitted under applicable Law and the insurance policies of Seller covering liabilities of the Business, at Buyer’s request, Seller and Selling Subsidiary shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make claims on behalf of Buyer and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries under the insurance policies of Seller (or any of its Subsidiaries) covering Liabilities of the Business, in each case solely for Liabilities arising and/or matters occurring prior to the Closing; provided, however, that neither Seller nor Selling Subsidiary shall be required by this Section 7.8 or any other term or provision of this Agreement to maintain any insurance policies or coverage following the Closing. If and to the extent that Seller or any of its Subsidiaries receives any insurance payment in respect of a claim under an insurance policy covering liabilities of the Business, Seller and/or its Subsidiaries (as applicable) shall promptly remit such payment to Buyer, subject to the offset for any theretofore unpaid out-of-pocket costs and expenses (other than premiums or retentions) incurred by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries as a result of the fulfillment of its obligations under this Section 7.8 payable by Buyer pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

7.9 Record Retention. Each Party agrees, on behalf of itself and its Controlled Affiliates, that for a period of not less than seven (7) years following the Closing Date, it shall not destroy or otherwise dispose of any of the books and records relating to the Transferred Assets, the Business Employees or the Assumed Liabilities in its possession with respect to periods prior to the Closing. Each Party shall have the right to destroy all or part of such books and records after the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date or, at an earlier time by giving each other party hereto twenty (20) days’ prior written notice of such intended disposition and by offering to deliver to the other party, at the other Party’s expense, custody of

-48-

such books and records as such first party may intend to destroy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, immediately after the Closing, Seller and Selling Subsidiary shall deliver to Buyer or destroy copies of Transferred Technology in Seller’s or Selling Subsidiary’s possession that are in addition to copies delivered to Buyer as part of the Closing, whether such copies are in paper form, on computer media or stored in another form; provided, however, that (a) Seller and Selling Subsidiary are entitled to possess such copies to the extent expressly permitted by this Agreement, and (b) Seller and Selling Subsidiary may retain and use copies of financial books and records relating to the Business.

7.10 Bulk Sales. It will not be practicable to comply or to attempt to comply with the procedures of the Uniform Commercial Code or other bulk sales laws or similar laws of the jurisdiction in which the Transferred Assets to be conveyed hereby are situated or of any other jurisdictions which may be asserted to be applicable to the transaction contemplated hereunder and the parties believe that it is not clear that any such laws are applicable to such transaction. Accordingly, to induce Buyer to waive any requirement for compliance on the part of Seller and Selling Subsidiary with the procedures of any such laws, Seller and Selling Subsidiary hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Buyer Indemnified Parties, in accordance with the provisions of Article 12, from and against, and to compensate and reimburse the Buyer Indemnified Parties, in accordance with the provisions of Article 12, for, any and all Losses arising out of or resulting from the failure of Seller or Selling Subsidiary to comply with or perform any actions in connection with the provisions of any such law of any states or jurisdictions applicable to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

7.11 Business Relationships; Payments.

(a) Seller and Selling Subsidiary shall cooperate with Buyer in Buyer’s efforts to continue and maintain for the benefit of Buyer those business relationships of the Business existing prior to the Closing, including relationships with customers, suppliers and others.

(b) After the Closing, Seller and Selling Subsidiary shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, as promptly as practicable, deliver, and if necessary endorse over to Buyer, any cash, checks or other instruments of payment Seller or any of its Subsidiaries receives that relate to the Transferred Assets or the Business to which Buyer is entitled and shall hold such cash, checks or other instruments of payment in trust for Buyer until such delivery.

(c) After the Closing, Buyer shall, as promptly as practicable, deliver to Seller (or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable) any mail and payments received by Buyer that do not relate to the Transferred Assets or the Business and to which Seller or its Subsidiaries is entitled.

7.12 Other Rights. Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to secure certain benefits and rights (as set forth on Schedule 7.12) of Seller and its Subsidiaries under the Contracts listed on Schedule 7.12 for the benefit of Buyer (but Seller shall not be required to make payments in respect thereof in excess of $300,000 in the aggregate).

ARTICLE 8

EMPLOYEE MATTERS

8.1 Automatic Transfer Employees.

(a) Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, effective as of the Closing, all rights, powers and Liabilities of Seller and its Subsidiaries to, or in respect of, any Automatic Transfer Employee (including the rights, powers and Liabilities under, in connection with or arising from a Contract of employment or employment relationship between an Automatic Transfer Employee and Seller or any of its Subsidiaries) in force and effect immediately prior to the Closing shall remain with, or be transferred by operation of law to, Buyer or one of its Subsidiaries.

-49-

(b) Buyer shall comply (or cause its Subsidiaries to comply) with all applicable provisions of the Transfer Regulations and other similar country-specific legal standards or applicable Laws in respect of all Automatic Transfer Employees. In furtherance and not in limitation of the preceding sentence, Seller, Selling Subsidiary and Buyer shall (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, as applicable) comply with all required obligations under the applicable Transfer Regulations and other similar country-specific legal standards or applicable Laws to notify and/or consult with Automatic Transfer Employees or employee representatives, unions, works councils or other employee representative bodies, if any, and shall provide such reasonable information to the other Party as is required by that Party to comply with its notification and/or consultation obligations under any and all such legal standards and Laws. Seller, Selling Subsidiary and Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless each other (and their respective Indemnified Parties) from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each other (and their respective Indemnified Parties) for, any and all Losses resulting from or arising out of any failure of the other Party to notify and/or consult, or to provide such information in a timely manner, in accordance with the foregoing legal standards and Laws.

8.2 Offered Employees.

(a) Prior to the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause one of its Subsidiaries to, offer employment to each Offered Employee other than any Leave Employee, in each case effective as of the Closing. Such offers of employment shall be on terms substantially equivalent, considering salary, terms, active benefit plans (but excluding for purposes of determining equivalency, the existence or value of deferred compensation benefits or programs), and positions, as such employees respectively held or received at Seller immediately prior to the date hereof. The Parties acknowledge that Buyer does not currently offer any deferred compensation plan to any of its employees and has no intentions to adopt any such plan and, thus, for the avoidance of doubt, is not obligated to provide any such plan as a result of this Agreement. Effective as of the Closing, Buyer or one of its Subsidiaries shall hire and employ each Offered Employee who accepts the offer of employment extended to such Offered Employee pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 8.2(a). Seller shall provide all reasonable assistance to Buyer and its Subsidiaries in connection with the offers of employment to the Offered Employees contemplated by the preceding sentences. Those Offered Employees who accept employment from Buyer or one of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the offers of employment made pursuant to this Section 8.2(a) and commence employment with Buyer or one of its Subsidiaries as of the Closing (or such later date with respect to the Leave Employees as permitted by Buyer), together with all Automatic Transferred Employees, shall be referred to herein collectively as “Transferred Employees.” Those Offered Employees who do not accept employment from Buyer or one of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the offers of employment made pursuant to this Section 8.2(a) and commence employment with Buyer or one of its Subsidiaries as of the Closing (or such later date with respect to the Leave Employees) shall be terminated by Seller promptly following the Closing (or such later date).

(b) Except as required by applicable Law or the terms of the Transition Services Agreement, from and after the Closing, the Transferred Employees shall cease to participate in and/or accrue further rights or benefits under any Business Employee Benefit Plans.

(c) Buyer shall take such steps as are not financially unreasonable or impractical to permit each Transferred Employee who has received an eligible rollover distribution (as defined in Section 402(c)(4) of the Code) from the 401(k) plan maintained by Seller, if any, to roll such eligible rollover distribution, including any associated loans, as part of any lump sum distribution to the extent permitted by the 401(k) plan maintained by Seller into an account under a 401(k) plan maintained by Buyer.

-50-

(d) With respect to any plan that is a “welfare benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA), or any plan that would be a “welfare benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) if it were subject to ERISA, maintained by Buyer or Buyer’s Subsidiary, Buyer shall cause there to be waived any pre-existing condition and waiting periods.

(e) Transferred Employees shall be given credit for purposes of future vacation accrual for the number of years of service with Seller, its Subsidiaries and any predecessor employer for which Seller or its Subsidiaries credited service, excluding credit which would result in the duplication of benefits accrual for the same period of service.

8.3 Employee Retention Plans.

(a) Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to implement short-term retention plans for the Transferred Employees, with terms that are reasonable for the purpose of retaining such Transferred Employees until the date that is thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, which plans shall be funded and paid by Seller. All such payments by Seller pursuant to such short-term retention plans described in this Section 8.3(a) shall be referred to collectively herein as the “Seller Incentive Payments.” As of the date hereof, the amount of the Seller Incentive Payments shall be $2,242,000, subject to a non-discretionary reduction immediately following Closing based on the number and category of actual Transferred Employees as agreed between the parties as of Closing.

(b) The Seller Incentive Payments shall be made by Seller to the Transferred Employees thirty-one (31) days after the Closing Date; provided that if the thirty-first (31st) day is a weekend or bank holiday, such payment will be made on the first Business Day thereafter. Promptly following the payment of such Seller Incentive Payments, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assign to Buyer any and all clawback rights associated with such Seller Incentive Payments, subject to compliance with all applicable laws. Seller shall provide for (i) a twelve (12) month clawback to fifty percent (50%) of the Seller Incentive Payments to Key Employees and (ii) a nine (9) month clawback to fifty percent (50%) of the Seller Incentive Payments to those Transferred Employees denoted as “Tier 2 Employees.” All other Seller Incentive Payments to Transferred Employees shall not be subject to any clawbacks. Any material changes to the clawback terms of the Seller Incentive Payments shall be mutually agreed to by both Buyer and Seller prior to the Closing Date.

(c) Buyer and Seller shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to implement retention plans for the Transferred Employees, with terms that are reasonable, which plans shall be funded and paid for by Buyer and Seller on a schedule mutually agreeable to the Parties. The aggregate amount of funding by Seller of such retention plans for the Transferred Employees at Closing shall be referred to herein as the “Retention Payments.” As of the date hereof, the Retention Payments shall be $3,157,000, subject to reduction immediately following Closing based on the number and category of actual Transferred Employees. As of the date hereof, the aggregate amount of funding by Buyer of such retention plans for the Transferred Employees shall be $660,000, subject to a non-discretionary reduction immediately following Closing based on the number and category of actual Transferred Employees as agreed between the parties as of Closing. Additionally, Buyer shall issue restricted stock units to Transferred Employees, consistent with amounts mutually agreed to by both Buyer and Seller, at the time offer letters are given to such Transferred Employees.

8.4 Non-Solicitation of Transferred Employees. Following the Closing for a period of two (2) years, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and their representatives not to, solicit to

-51-

employ, or solicit to provide services to Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, any Transferred Employee who is then-employed by or otherwise providing services to Buyer or its Affiliates or any other employee or consultant of Buyer or its Affiliates who was involved in the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement and who is then-employed by or then-providing service to Buyer or its Affiliates. Following the Closing for a period of one (1) year, Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and their representatives not to, solicit to employ, or solicit to provide services to Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries, any employee or consultant of Seller or its Affiliates who was involved in the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement and who is then-employed by or then-providing service to Seller or its Affiliates. Following the Closing for a period of one (1) year, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and their representatives not to, solicit to employ, or solicit to provide services to Seller or any of its Subsidiaries, any employee or consultant of Buyer or its Affiliates who was involved in the Transactions contemplated by this Agreement and who is then-employed by or then-providing services to Buyer or its Affiliates. For purposes of this Section 8.4, the term “solicit” shall not be deemed to include generalized searches for employees or consultants through media advertisements or employment firms. Seller agrees that it will not, and will cause its Affiliates not to, assert that any Transferred Employees have breached any agreements with Seller or its Affiliates, including but not limited to any employment, consulting, noncompete, and/or confidentiality agreements, by accepting employment with and/or performing any services for Buyer or any of its Affiliates.

8.5 Tax Reporting. At Buyer’s election, which shall be provided in writing to Seller prior to the Closing, the Parties shall use the alternate procedure of Revenue Procedure 2004-53 with respect to any employees of the Business who become employees of Buyer or any of its Affiliates.

8.6 No Third Party Beneficiaries. The Parties acknowledge and agree that all provisions set forth in this Article 8 or any other provision of this Agreement with respect to Business Employees are included for the sole benefit of the respective Parties and shall not create any right (a) in any other Person, including any Business Employees, former Employees, any participant in any Business Employee Benefit Plan or any beneficiary thereof, (b) to continued employment, either before or after the Closing, with Seller, Buyer or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or (c) to be construed to modify, amend or establish any benefit plan, program or arrangement or in any way affect the ability of the Parties hereto or any other Person to modify, amend or terminate any of its benefit plans, programs or arrangements; provided, however, that the Parties acknowledge and agree that the provisions herein in Article 8 do not supersede the rights, under the Transfer Regulations, of any Automatic Transfer Employee.

Seller and Selling Subsidiary shall be responsible for and shall promptly pay when due all Property Taxes levied with respect to the Transferred Assets attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period. All Property Taxes levied with respect to the Transferred Assets for the Straddle Period shall be apportioned between Buyer and Seller or between Buyer and Selling Subsidiary, as applicable, based on the number of days of such Straddle Period included in the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the number of days of such Straddle Period included in the Post-Closing Tax Period. Seller or Selling Subsidiary, as applicable, shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such Property Taxes that is attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period, and Buyer shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such Property Taxes that is attributable to the Post-Closing Tax Period.

The proration amount shall be paid by the party owing it to the other within ten (10) days after delivery of such statement. In the event that Buyer, Seller or Selling Subsidiary makes any payment for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Section 9.3, the applicable party shall make such reimbursement promptly but in no event later than ten (10) days after the presentation of a statement setting forth the amount of reimbursement to which the presenting party is entitled along with such supporting evidence as is reasonably necessary to calculate the amount of reimbursement.

(i) “Competing Business” shall mean the design, development, manufacture, testing, marketing, supporting, maintaining, distributing, provisioning and selling of Non-Volatile Memory Controllers using PCIe, SAS or SATA interfaces or NVMe, Scsi, or Scsi Express protocols, including any products and services that are the same as, or substantially similar in function to, the Business Products, with any version of the above interfaces or protocols.

(ii) “Competing Territory” shall mean worldwide.

(b) Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer would be irreparably damaged if Seller or any of its Affiliates were to provide services to or otherwise participate in a Competing Business and that any such competition by Seller (or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) would result in a significant loss of goodwill by Buyer. Seller further acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and agreements set forth in this Article 10 were a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder, and that Buyer would not obtain the benefit of the bargain set forth in this

-53-

Agreement as specifically negotiated by the parties hereto if Seller breached the provisions of this Section 10.1. Therefore, Seller agrees, in further consideration of the amounts to be paid hereunder for the Transferred Assets and the goodwill of Seller sold by Seller that, except with the prior written consent of Buyer, at all times until the fourth (4^th) anniversary of the Closing Date, Seller shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Controlled Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly, engage in, conduct, manage, operate, own, control or participate in the management of a Competing Business in the Competing Territory or any portion thereof. Seller acknowledges that the Business has been conducted or is presently proposed to be conducted throughout the Competing Territory and that the geographic restrictions set forth above are reasonable and necessary to protect the goodwill of the Business being sold by Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

10.2 Severability. If, at the time of enforcement of the covenants contained in Section 7.5, Section 8.4 and this Article 10 (the “Restrictive Covenants”), a court shall hold that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the Parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed and directed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by Law. Seller has consulted with legal counsel regarding the Restrictive Covenants and based on such consultation has determined and hereby acknowledges that the Restrictive Covenants are reasonable in terms of duration, scope and area restrictions and are necessary to protect the goodwill of Seller’s Business and the substantial investment in Seller made by Buyer hereunder. Seller further acknowledges and agrees that the Restrictive Covenants are being entered into by it in connection with the sale by Seller of the Transferred Assets and the goodwill of the Business pursuant to this Agreement and not directly or indirectly in connection with Seller’s employment or other relationship with Buyer.

(c) Except in the event of fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach, from and after the Closing, the rights of Buyer and Seller to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under this Agreement shall be the exclusive remedies of the Parties with respect to any breach of, inaccuracy in or nonfulfillment of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or the Transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in this Section 12.2(c) shall not apply to any actions to specifically enforce the covenants in this Agreement.

(d) When determining the existence of any breach of, inaccuracy in or failure of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement given or made by Seller, Selling Subsidiary or Buyer, or when determining the amount of Losses suffered by an Indemnified Person as a result of any breach of, inaccuracy in or failure of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement given or made by Seller, Selling Subsidiary or Buyer, in either case that is qualified or limited in scope as to materiality, Business Material Adverse Effect or Knowledge (or similar concepts), such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall be deemed to be made or given without such qualification or limitation.

-57-

(e) The right to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date, with respect to the accuracy of, inaccuracy in or compliance with, any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement or by the waiver of any condition. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or agreement, will not affect the right to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement based on any such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement. No Buyer Indemnified Party shall be required to show reliance on any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement in order for such Buyer Indemnified Party to be entitled to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement hereunder. Buyer, Seller and Selling Subsidiary each acknowledge that such Losses, if any, would relate to unresolved contingencies existing at the Closing, which if resolved at the Closing would have led to a reduction in the Adjusted Purchase Price that Buyer would have paid in connection with the Transactions.

12.3 Limitations on Indemnification. Except for claims arising out of fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful breach:

(a) The Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover any Losses under Section 12.2(a)(ii) until such time as the total amount of all Losses that have been directly or indirectly suffered or incurred by any one or more of the Buyer Indemnified Parties, or to which any one or more of the Buyer Indemnified Parties has or have otherwise directly or indirectly become subject, exceeds $250,000 (the “Loss Threshold”), in which case the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recovery for all such Losses (including the amount of the Loss Threshold); provided, however, that the limitation contained in this Section 12.3(a) shall not apply to any breach of or inaccuracy in any Seller Fundamental Representation, any breach of or inaccuracy in the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.4(b), any Excluded Liabilities, any breach of covenant, or fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct.

(b) The maximum aggregate amount of Losses that the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover under Section 12.2(a)(ii) shall be limited to thirteen percent (13%) of the Final Adjusted Purchase Price.

(c) The maximum aggregate amount of Losses that the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover under Section 12.2(a)(iv) shall be limited to twenty percent (20%) of the Final Adjusted Purchase Price.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 12.3(b) and Section 12.3(c), the maximum aggregate amount of Losses that the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover under Section 12.2(a)(ii) and Section 12.2(a)(iv), collectively, shall be limited to $20,000,000.

(e) The maximum aggregate amount of Losses that the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover under Section 12.2(a)(i), Section 12.2(a)(ii), Section 12.2(a)(iii), Section 12.2(a)(iv), Section 12.2(a)(vi) and Section 12.2(a)(vii), collectively, shall be limited to the Final Adjusted Purchase Price.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the maximum aggregate amount of Losses that the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover under Section 12.2(a)(v) or Section 12.2(a)(viii) shall not be limited.

-58-

(g) The maximum aggregate amount of Losses that the Seller Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover under Section 12.2(b)(ii) shall be limited to thirteen percent (13%) of the Final Adjusted Purchase Price.

(h) The maximum aggregate amount of Losses that the Seller Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover under Section 12.2(b)(i), Section 12.2(b)(ii), and Section 12.2(b)(iii), collectively, shall be limited to the Final Adjusted Purchase Price.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the maximum aggregate amount of Losses that the Seller Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover under Section 12.2(b)(iv) shall not be limited.

12.4 Indemnification Claims.

(a) If an Indemnified Party is of the opinion that it has or may have a right to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under this Agreement (an “Indemnification Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall so notify the Indemnifying Party in a written notice (a “Claim Certificate”), prior to the expiration of the applicable Survival Period (if applicable): (i) stating that such Indemnified Party has directly or indirectly suffered or incurred any Losses, or reasonably anticipates that it will directly or indirectly suffer or incur any Losses, for which it is entitled to indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under this Agreement; (ii) a brief description in reasonable detail (to the extent available to such Indemnified Party) of the facts, circumstances or events giving rise to each item of Losses based on such Indemnified Party’s good faith belief thereof; and (iii) the basis for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement under this Agreement to which such item of Losses is related.

(b) In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall seek to contest any individual items of Losses set forth in a Claim Certificate, the Indemnifying Party shall so notify the Indemnified Party in writing within thirty (30) days after receipt of such Claim Certificate, which notice shall set forth a brief description in reasonable detail of the Indemnifying Party’s basis for objecting to each item of Loss. In the event that the Indemnifying Party shall fail to object to any items of Loss set forth in a Claim Certificate within the foregoing thirty-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have irrevocably agreed and consented to indemnify, compensate and reimburse the Indemnified Party in respect of such items of Loss pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

12.5 Third Party Claims. In the event any Action is instituted against an Indemnified Party which involves or appears reasonably likely to involve an Indemnification Claim hereunder (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall, promptly after receipt of notice of any such Action, notify the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any such Action will relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability in connection therewith only if and to the extent that such failure shall have caused the damages for which the Indemnified Party is obligated to be greater than such damages would have been had the Indemnified Party given the Indemnifying Party prompt notice hereunder. Upon receipt of such notice, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to control the defense or settlement of such Third Party Claim by appointing a recognized and reputable counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Party to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense; provided, that prior to the Indemnifying Party assuming control of such defense it shall first verify to the Indemnified Party in writing that such Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for all liabilities and obligations relating to such Third Party Claim up to the limitations (if any) set forth in Section 12.3 and subject to such limitations, and provided, further, that:

(a) the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party (other than any fees and expenses of such separate counsel that are incurred prior to the date the Indemnifying Party effectively assumes control of such defense which, notwithstanding the foregoing, shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party, and except that the Indemnifying Party shall pay all of the fees and expenses of such separate counsel if the Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel that a reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party);

-59-

(b) the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume control of, or continue to control if any of the following conditions is not satisfied at any time following the Indemnifying Party’s assumption of control, such defense (unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Indemnified Party) and shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party if (i) the claim for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement relates to or arises in connection with any criminal or quasi-criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (ii) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the Third Party Claim would be detrimental to or injure the Indemnified Party’s reputation, business, operations or future business prospects; (iii) the claim seeks an injunction or equitable or any other non-monetary relief against the Indemnified Party; (iv) the Indemnifying Party fails to vigorously prosecute or defend such claim; (v) the amount of Losses to be incurred pursuant to such Third Party Claim (when combined with all other outstanding claims for indemnification, compensation or reimbursement and any amount previously paid by the Indemnifying Party that applies toward the applicable cap under Section 12.3 (if any) would be reasonably expected to exceed the applicable cap contemplated by Section 12.3 (if any)) in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party; or (vi) the claim relates to a breach or alleged breach of Section 4.4 (Title; Sufficiency) or Section 4.11 (Intellectual Property);

(c) if the Indemnifying Party shall control the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party before entering into any settlement of or consenting to the entry of any judgment with respect to such claim unless (1) the terms of the proposed settlement or judgment include as an unconditional and with-prejudice term thereof the granting by the third party to Buyer and any other relevant Indemnified Party a release from all Liability in respect of such Third Party Claim; (2) there is (A) no finding or admission of any violation of Law by any Indemnified Party, and (B) no finding or admission of any violation of the rights of any Person by any Indemnified Party; and (3) the sole form of relief is monetary damages that shall be paid in full by the Indemnifying Party; and

(d) if the Indemnified Party shall control the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to settle, adjust or compromise such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that if the Indemnified Party settles, adjusts or compromises any such Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, such settlement, adjustment or compromise shall not be conclusive evidence of the amount of Losses incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Claim (it being understood that if the Indemnified Party requests that the Indemnifying Party consent to a settlement, adjustment or compromise, the Indemnifying Party shall not unreasonably withhold or delay such consent).

12.6 Setoff. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on or after the two year anniversary of the Closing Date, any Retention Payments not actually paid to any retained Transferred Employee as of such date or otherwise distributed pursuant to this Section 12.6 shall be used to satisfy, to the maximum extent possible and prior to any indemnity payments by Seller pursuant to this Article 12, any indemnity payments owed by Seller to the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Agreement. Any additional indemnity payments owed by Seller to Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be satisfied in accordance with the other sections of this Article 12.

-60-

12.7 Tax Matters. All indemnity payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated for all Tax purposes as adjustments to the Adjusted Purchase Price, unless otherwise required by applicable Law.

12.8 Release. Effective upon the Closing, Seller and its Subsidiaries hereby irrevocably waive, release and discharge Buyer and its Affiliates from any and all Liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever, whether arising under any agreement or understanding (other than under this Agreement and any Collateral Agreement) or otherwise at law or in equity arising prior to Closing or relating to pre-Closing periods, and Seller and its Subsidiaries agree that they shall not seek to recover any amounts in connection therewith or thereunder from Buyer or any of its Affiliates. In no event shall Buyer or any of its Affiliates have any Liability whatsoever to Seller or any of its Subsidiary for any breaches of the representations, warranties, agreements or covenants of Seller and its Subsidiaries hereunder, and in any event Seller and its Subsidiaries may not seek contribution from Buyer or any of its Affiliates in respect of any payments required to be made by Seller or any of its Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement.

13.3 Amendments and Waivers. Subject to applicable Law, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each of the Parties, or, in the case of a waiver, by the Party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No course of dealing and no failure or delay on the part of any Party hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy conferred by this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise prejudice such party’s rights, powers and remedies. The failure of any of the Parties to this Agreement to require the performance of a term or obligation under this Agreement or the waiver by any of the Parties to this Agreement of any breach hereunder shall not prevent subsequent enforcement of such term or obligation or be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach hereunder.

Except to the extent set forth otherwise herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

-63-

13.8 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as specifically set forth or referred to herein, nothing herein expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any Person any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement or any other certificate, document, instrument or agreement executed in connection herewith nor be relied upon other than the Parties hereto and their permitted successors or assigns.

-64-

(e) Before the arbitrator establishes the facts of the case, each Party will be entitled to examine witnesses by deposition to provide non-privileged testimony that is relevant to the controversies, claims or disputes at issue.

(h) The award rendered by the arbitrator will be executory, final and binding on the Parties. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered into any court having jurisdiction, or application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of the award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. Such court proceeding will disclose only the minimum amount of information concerning the arbitration as is required to obtain such acceptance or order.

(i) Except as required by law, neither Party may disclose the existence, contents or results of an arbitration brought in accordance with this Agreement, or the evidence produced by its opposing parties, or any analyses or summaries derived from such evidence.

(j) Each Party hereby agrees that in connection with any such action process may be served in the same manner as notices may be delivered under Section 13.1 and irrevocably waives any defenses it may have to service in such manner.

(k) Each Party hereby agrees that this Agreement does not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from (1) the Federal or state courts located in Santa Clara County, California; or (2) the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. For the purposes of this subparagraph, each of the Parties consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the courts described in the first sentence of this paragraph, agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other application, agrees that it will not bring any Action relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions in any other court, agrees that it will not assert as a defense that such Action may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or the Transaction Agreements may not be enforced in or by such courts, and agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such Actions in the manner provided in Section 13.1 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law will be valid and sufficient service thereof.

13.12 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO IN NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF.

13.13 Counterparts. This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement, and any amendments hereto or thereto, may be executed in two or more counterparts and by the different Parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

-65-

Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by means of a fax machine or by .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpeg or similar attachment to electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”) shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. No Party hereto shall raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each such party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent that such defense relates to lack of authenticity.
