      2. In connection with the Separation, the parties wish to clarify certain real estate matters.

      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the covenants and agreements set forth below, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

PROPERTY

      1.1     Owned Property. LSI Logic shall convey the Owned Property (together with all rights and easements appurtenant thereto) to SSI, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement and (to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement) the terms of the Separation Agreement and the other Ancillary Agreements. Such conveyance shall be completed as of the Separation Date.

      1.2     Leased Property.

      (a) LSI Logic shall assign or cause its Subsidiary to assign to SSI, and SSI shall accept and assume, LSI Logic’s interest in the Leased Properties, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement and (to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement) the terms of the Separation Agreement and the other Ancillary Agreements. Such assignment shall be completed on the later of: (i) the Separation Date; and (ii) the earlier of (A) the fifth (5th) business day after the relevant Lease Consent has been granted and (B) the date agreed upon by the parties in accordance with Section 1.6(a) below.

      (b) Subject to the completion of the assignment to SSI of the relevant Leased Property, with respect to each Leased Property which is also a Shared Property, SSI shall grant to LSI Logic a license to occupy those parts of the relevant Leased Properties identified in Section A of Schedule 1 of this Agreement currently occupied by LSI Logic and LSI Logic shall accept the same. Such license shall be completed immediately following completion of the transfer of the relevant Leased Property to SSI.

      1.3     Shared Properties. LSI Logic shall grant or cause its applicable Subsidiary to grant to SSI or its applicable Subsidiary a license to occupy those parts of the Shared Properties identified in Section B of Schedule 1 of this Agreement currently occupied by LSI Logic or its applicable Subsidiary and SSI shall accept or cause its Subsidiary to accept the same, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement and (to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement) the terms of the Separation Agreement and the other Ancillary Agreements. Such license shall be completed on the Separation Date.

      1.4     Obtaining the Lease Consents.

      (a) LSI Logic confirms that, with respect to each Leased Property, an application has been made or will promptly be made to the relevant Landlord for the Lease Consents required with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

      (b) LSI Logic and SSI will each use their reasonable commercial efforts to obtain the Lease Consents as to the Leased Properties, but LSI Logic shall not be required to commence judicial proceedings for a declaration that a Lease Consent has been unreasonably withheld or delayed, nor shall LSI Logic be required

1

      (c) SSI and LSI Logic will promptly satisfy the lawful requirements of the Landlord, and SSI will take all steps to assist LSI Logic in obtaining the Lease Consents as to the Leased Properties, including, without limitation:

      Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) except with respect to guarantees, sureties or other security referenced in Section 1.4(c)(ii) above, SSI shall not be required to obtain a release of any obligation entered into by LSI Logic or its Subsidiary with any Landlord or other third party with respect to any Property and (2) SSI shall not communicate directly with any of the Landlords unless SSI can show LSI Logic reasonable grounds for doing so.

      (d) If, with respect to any Leased Properties, LSI Logic and SSI are unable to obtain a release by the Landlord of any guarantee, surety or other security which LSI Logic or its Subsidiary has previously provided to the Landlord, SSI shall indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless LSI Logic and its Subsidiary from and after the Separation Date against all losses, costs, claims, damages, or liabilities incurred by LSI Logic or its Subsidiary as a result of SSI’s occupancy of the Leased Property with respect to such guarantee, surety or other security.

      1.5     Occupation by SSI.

      (a) Subject to compliance with Section 1.5(b) below, in the event that the Actual Completion Date for any Leased Property does not occur on the Separation Date, SSI shall, commencing on the Separation Date, be entitled to occupy the relevant Property (except to the extent that the same is a Retained Part) as a licensee upon the terms and conditions contained in LSI Logic’s Lease. Such license shall not be revocable prior to the date for completion as provided in Section 1.2(a) unless an enforcement action or forfeiture by the relevant Landlord due to SSI’s occupation of the Property constituting a breach of LSI Logic’s Lease cannot, in the reasonable opinion of LSI Logic, be avoided other than by requiring SSI to immediately vacate the relevant Property, in which case LSI Logic may by notice to SSI immediately require SSI to vacate the relevant Property. SSI will be responsible for all costs, expenses and liabilities incurred by LSI Logic or its applicable Subsidiary as a consequence of such occupation, except for any losses, claims, costs, demands and liabilities incurred by LSI Logic or its Subsidiary as a result of any enforcement action taken by the Landlord against LSI Logic or its Subsidiary with respect to any breach by LSI Logic or its Subsidiary of the Relevant Lease in permitting SSI to so occupy the Property without obtaining the required Lease Consent, for which LSI Logic or its Subsidiary shall be solely responsible. SSI shall not be entitled to make any claim or demand against, or obtain reimbursement from, LSI Logic or its applicable Subsidiary with respect to any costs, losses, claims, liabilities or damages incurred by SSI as a consequence of being obliged to vacate the Property or in obtaining alternative premises, including, without limitation, any enforcement action which a Landlord may take against SSI.

      (b) In the event that the Actual Completion Date for any Leased Property does not occur on the Separation Date, whether or not SSI occupies a Property as licensee as provided in Section 1.5(a) above, SSI

2

      (c) LSI Logic shall supply promptly to SSI copies of all invoices, demands, notices and other communications received by LSI Logic or its or its applicable Subsidiaries or agents in connection with any of the matters for which SSI may be liable to make any payment or perform any obligation pursuant to Section 1.5(b), and shall, at SSI’s cost, take any steps and pass on any objections which SSI may have in connection with any such matters. SSI shall promptly supply to LSI Logic any notices, demands, invoices and other communications received by SSI or its agents from any Landlord while SSI occupies any Property without the relevant Lease Consent.

      1.6     Obligation to Complete.

      (a) If, with respect to any Leased Property, at any time the relevant Lease Consent is formally and unconditionally refused in writing, LSI Logic and SSI shall commence good faith negotiations and use commercially reasonable efforts to determine how to allocate the applicable Property, based on the relative importance of the applicable Property to the operations of each party, the size of the applicable Property, the number of employees of each party at the applicable Property and the potential risk and liability to each party in the event an enforcement action is brought by the applicable Landlord. Such commercially reasonable efforts shall include consideration of alternate structures to accommodate the needs of both parties and the allocation of the costs thereof, including entering into amendments of the size, term or other terms of the Relevant Lease, restructuring a proposed lease assignment to be a sublease and relocating one party. If the parties are unable to agree upon an allocation of the Property within fifteen (15) days after commencement of negotiations between the parties as described above, then either party may, by delivering written notice to the other, require that the matter be referred to the Chief Financial Officers of both parties. In such event, the Chief Financial Officers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to determine the allocation of the Property, including having a meeting or telephone conference within five (5) business days thereafter. If the parties are unable to agree upon the allocation of an applicable Property within five (5) business days after the matter is referred to the Chief Financial Officers of the parties as described above, the disposition of the applicable Property and the risks associated therewith shall be allocated between the parties as set forth in subparts (b) and (c) of this section below.

      (b) If, with respect to any Leased Property, the parties are unable to agree upon the allocation of a Property as set forth in Section 1.6(a), LSI Logic may by written notice to SSI elect to apply to the relevant Landlord for consent to sublease all of the relevant Property to SSI for the remainder of the Relevant Lease term less three (3) days at a rent equal to the rent from time to time under the Relevant Lease, but otherwise on substantially the same terms and conditions as the Relevant Lease. If LSI Logic makes such an election, until such time as the relevant Lease Consent is obtained and a sublease is completed, the provisions of Section 1.5 will apply and, on the grant of the Lease Consent required to sublease the Leased Property in question, LSI Logic shall sublease or cause its applicable Subsidiary to sublease to SSI the relevant Property, which sublease shall be for a term and rent set forth in the Relevant Lease and otherwise on the terms of the Relevant Lease.

      (c) If the parties are unable to agree upon the allocation of a Property as set forth in Section 1.6(a) and LSI Logic does not make an election pursuant to Section 1.6(b) above, LSI Logic may elect by written notice to SSI to require SSI to vacate the relevant Property immediately or by such other date as may be specified in the notice served by LSI Logic (the “Notice Date”), in which case SSI shall vacate or cause its applicable Subsidiary to vacate the relevant Property on the Notice Date but shall indemnify LSI Logic and its applicable Subsidiary from and against all costs, claims, losses, liabilities and damages in relation to the relevant Property arising from and including the Separation Date to and including the later of the Notice Date and date on which SSI or its applicable Subsidiary vacates the relevant Property, except for any costs, losses, damages, claims and liabilities incurred by LSI Logic or its Subsidiary with respect to any enforcement action

      1.7     Form of Transfer.

      (a) The transfer or assignment to SSI of the Owned Property and each relevant Leased Property shall be in substantially the form attached in Schedule 2 or 3, as applicable, with such amendments as are reasonably required by LSI Logic with respect to a particular Property, including, without limitation, in all cases where a relevant Landlord has required a guarantor or surety to guarantee the obligations of SSI contained in the relevant Lease Consent or any other document which SSI is required to complete, the giving of such guarantee by a guarantor or surety, and the giving by SSI and any guarantor or surety of SSI’s obligations of direct obligations to LSI Logic or third parties where required under the terms of any of the Lease Consent or any covenant, condition, restriction, easement, lease or other encumbrance to which the Property is subject. Such amendments shall be submitted to SSI for approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

      (b) The licenses to be granted by SSI to LSI Logic, and LSI Logic or its applicable Subsidiary to SSI or its applicable Subsidiary, with respect to the Shared Properties shall be at the rental rates and terms set forth in Schedule 1 hereof and shall be substantially in the form of the License Form, with such amendments as are, in the reasonable opinion of LSI Logic, necessary with respect to a particular Property. Such amendments shall be submitted to SSI for approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

      1.8     Tenant’s Fixtures and Fittings. The provisions of the Separation Agreement and the other Ancillary Agreements shall apply to any trade fixtures and personal property located at each Property (excluding any trade fixtures and personal property owned by third parties). The licenses as to the Shared Properties shall include the rental of the furniture at such Properties.

LSI Logic shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with obtaining the Lease Consents, including, without limitation, Landlord’s consent fees and attorneys’ fees and any costs and expenses relating to re-negotiation of LSI Logic’s Leases.
