The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(f)(6) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section

5.6(A) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(f) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
               (B) Member Nonrecourse Debt Minimum Gain Chargeback. Except as otherwise provided in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4), if there is a net decrease in Member Minimum Gain attributable to a “Member Nonrecourse Debt” (as those terms are defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(4)) during any Taxable Year, each Member that has a share of such Member Minimum Gain shall be specially allocated items of taxable income or gain for such Taxable Year (and, if necessary, subsequent Taxable Years) in an amount equal to that Member’s share of the net decrease in Member Minimum Gain. Items to be allocated pursuant to this paragraph shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulation Sections 1.704-2(i)(4) and 1.704-2(j)(2). This Section 5.6(B) is intended to comply with the minimum gain chargeback requirements in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i)(4) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
               (C) Qualified Income Offset. If any Member unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of taxable income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the adjusted capital account deficit (determined according to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)) created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.6(C) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a Adjusted Capital Account Deficit after all other allocations provided for in this ARTICLE V have been tentatively made as if this Section 5.6(C) were not in the Agreement. This Section 5.6(C) is intended to comply with the qualified income offset requirement in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d) and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.
               (D) Gross Income Allocation. In the event any Member has a deficit Capital Account at the end of any Taxable Year that is in excess of the sum of (i) the amount the Member is obligated to restore pursuant to any provision of this Agreement and (ii) the amount the Member is deemed to be obligated to restore pursuant to the penultimate sentences of the Treasury Regulations 1.704-2(g)(1) and 1.704-2(i)(5), the Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible, provided that an allocation pursuant to this Section 5.6(D) shall be made only if and to the extent that such Member would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this ARTICLE V have been tentatively made as if Section 5.6(C) and this Section 5.6(D) were not in this Agreement.
               (E) Nonrecourse Deductions. Nonrecourse Deductions (as determined according to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(b)(1)) for any Taxable Year shall be allocated to the Members in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests, and Member Nonrecourse Deductions shall be allocated in the manner required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-2(i).

24


 

               (F) Member Nonrecourse Deductions. Any Member Nonrecourse Deductions for any Taxable Year shall be specially allocated to the Member who bears the economic risk of loss with respect to the Member Nonrecourse Debt to which such Member Nonrecourse Deductions are attributable in accordance with Treasury Regulation §1.704-2(i)(1).
               (G) Section 754 Adjustment. To the extent an adjustment to the adjusted tax basis of any Company asset pursuant to Code §§734(b) or 743(b) is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulation §§1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) or 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts as the result of a distribution to a Member in complete liquidation of his interest in the Company, the amount of such adjustment to the Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and such gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Members in accordance with their interests in the Company in the event that Treasury Regulation §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(2) applies, or to the Members to whom such distribution was made in the event that Treasury Regulation §1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)(4) applies.
               (H) Curative Allocations. The allocations set forth in Section 5.5(B)(ii), and Section 5.6(A), (B), (C), (D), (E), (F), and (G) (the “Regulatory Allocations”) are intended to comply with certain requirements of the Treasury Regulations. It is the intent of the Members that, to the extent possible, all Regulatory Allocations shall be offset either with other Regulatory Allocations or with special allocations of other items of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction pursuant to this Section 5.6(H). Therefore, notwithstanding any other provision of this ARTICLE V (other than the Regulatory Allocations), the Board of Managers shall make such offsetting special allocations of Company income, gain, loss, or deduction in whatever manner it determines appropriate so that, after such offsetting allocations are made, each Member’s Capital Account balance is, to the extent possible, equal to the Capital Account balance such Member would have had if the Regulatory Allocations were not part of the Agreement and all Company items were allocated pursuant to Section 5.5(A), Section 5.5(B)(i), and Section 5.8. In exercising its discretion under this Section 5.6(H), the Board of Managers shall take into account future Regulatory Allocations under Section 5.6(A) and (B) that, although not yet made, are likely to offset other Regulatory Allocations previously made under Section 5.6(E) and (F).
               (I) Offsetting Allocations. If, and to the extent that, any Member is deemed to recognize any item of income, gain, deduction or loss as a result of any transaction between such Member and the Company pursuant to Sections 1272-1274, 7872, 483, 482 or 83 of the Code or any similar provision now or hereafter in effect, and the Board reasonably determines that any corresponding item of deduction, loss, income or gain recognized by the Company (net of any income or deduction recognized by the Company in connection with such transaction) should be allocated to such Member in order to reflect the Members’ Percentage Interest in the Company, then the Board may so allocate such corresponding net item.

          Upon the request of any Member, the Company shall elect, pursuant to Section 754 of the Code, to adjust the basis of property owned by the Company as permitted and provided in Sections 734 and 743 of the Code. Such election shall be effective solely for Federal (and, if applicable, state and local) income tax purposes and shall not result in any adjustment to the Book Value of any Company asset or to the Member’s Capital Accounts (except as provided in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m)) or in the determination or allocation of Profit or Loss for purposes other than such tax purposes.
     Section 5.8 Tax Allocations
               (A) Generally. Except as provided in Section 5.8(B) or Section 5.8(C), for federal, state and local income tax purposes, each item of income, gain, loss or deduction shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner and in the same proportion that the corresponding book items have been allocated among the Members’ respective Capital Accounts.
               (B) Eric Üner January 2011 Bonus. Eclipse is paying a bonus to Eric Üner, an employee of the Company, pursuant to a bonus letter dated as of the Effective Date (the “Eric Üner January 2011 Bonus”). To the extent the Eric Üner January 2011 Bonus is ever deemed to be compensation paid by the Company, then the Members agree that the resulting deduction shall be allocated entirely to Eclipse.
               (C) Variations. In accordance with Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction in respect of any property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its initial Book Value. In the event the Book Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(e) or (f), subsequent allocations of income, gain, loss and deduction in respect of such asset shall take into account any variation between the adjusted basis of such asset for federal income tax purposes and its Book Value in the same manner as under Section 704(c) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder. Allocations required or permitted by this Section 5.8(C) shall be made based on any reasonable method specified in Treasury Regulations Section 1.704-3 as the Board reasonably determines.

PCTEL and Eclipse may remove or replace such designees at any time. In the event that Anthony Vitucci is terminated as an employee of PCTEL or the Company for Cause (as defined herein or in an employment agreement) or resigns, then he shall be deemed to have resigned from the Board and Eclipse shall replace him as its designee. In the event that Eclipse (a) materially breaches its obligations (beyond any applicable notice or cure periods) under, or (b) terminates, the Eclipse Services Agreement, then Eclipse’s right to designate a member of the Board shall terminate, and the size of the Board shall be reduced to two (2) members, both of

EXCULPATION AND INDEMNIFICATION
     Section 7.1 Duties; No Liability
          In the event of a conflict between the interests of any Member and any other Member: (i) the members of the Board appointed by such Member shall not be obligated to recommend or take any action that prefers the interests of the Company or the other Members over their respective interests or the interests of such Member, and (ii) each Member hereby waives both (A) the fiduciary duty, including the duty of care and the duty of loyalty, if any, of the members of the Board and the Members owed to the Company and/or its Members and (B) any claim or cause of action against the members of the Board and the Members for any breach of fiduciary duty owed to the Company or the Members by any such Person; provided, however, that such Persons shall act in good faith. No Member, member of the Board, or Officer of the Company shall have any duty to the Company or any Member of the Company except for the duties of good faith and fair dealing. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no Member, member of the Board, or Officer of the Company shall be liable to the Company or to any Member for any loss or damage sustained by the Company or to any Member, nor be in breach of this Agreement, unless the loss or damage shall have been the result of gross negligence, fraud or intentional misconduct by the Member, member of the Board, or Officer in question or, in the case of a member of the Board or an Officer, breach of such Person’s duties pursuant to Section 6.2(C). In performing his, her or its duties, each such Person shall be entitled to rely in good faith on the provisions of this Agreement and on information, opinions, reports or statements (including financial statements and information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value or amount of the assets, liabilities, profits or losses of the Company or any facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which Distributions to Members might properly be paid) of the following other Persons or groups: one or more Officers of the Company, any attorney, independent accountant, appraiser or other expert or professional employed or engaged by or on behalf of the Company or the Board; or any other Person who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Company, or the Board in each case as to matters which such relying Person reasonably believes to be within such other Person’s competence. The preceding sentence shall in no way limit any Person’s right to rely on information to the extent provided in Section 18-406 of the Act. No Member, member of the Board, or Officer of the Company shall be personally liable under any judgment of a court, or in any other manner, for any debt, obligation or liability of the Company, whether that liability or obligation arises in contract, tort or otherwise, solely by reason of being a Member, member of the Board, or Officer of the Company, or any combination of the foregoing.
     Section 7.2 Restrictive Covenants.
The following restrictive covenants (the “Restrictive Covenants”) shall apply to the Members, the Restricted Member Affiliates, the members of the Board and the Officers:

               (A) Confidentiality. Without limiting the applicability of any other agreement to which any Person may be subject, no Member, Restricted Member Affiliate, member of the Board or Officer shall, directly or indirectly, disclose or use at any time, whether during the Restricted Period or thereafter, any Confidential Information of which such Person is or becomes aware. Each such Person in possession of Confidential Information shall take all appropriate steps to safeguard such information and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft. Notwithstanding the above, such a Person may disclose Confidential Information to the extent that (i) the disclosure is necessary for him, her or it to fulfill duties to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other written agreement, (ii) the disclosure is required by law or a court order, or (iii) the disclosure is necessary to enforce rights hereunder; provided, however, that Eclipse may not disclose or use any Confidential Information in connection with any sale of, or attempt to sell its Membership Interest pursuant to Section 9.5, except pursuant to a nondisclosure agreement in a form acceptable to the Board in its reasonable discretion, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
               (B) Non-Competition. During the Restricted Period, no Member or Restricted Member Affiliate shall, directly or indirectly, in any capacity, engage or invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control, be employed by, or be associated with any business venture or activity engaged in the acquisition, development, ownership, management, exploitation, licensing, sublicensing or disposition of any secure smartphone or related products competitive with the Products, anywhere in the world; provided, however, that he, she or it may purchase or otherwise acquire up to (but not more than) one percent (1%) of any class of securities of any enterprise (without otherwise participating in the activities of such enterprise) if such securities are listed on any national or registered security exchange or have been registered under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
               (C) Non-Solicitation. During the Restricted Period, PCTEL, Eclipse, the Restricted Member Affiliates, the members of the Board and the Officers shall not, directly or indirectly, in any capacity, whether for his, her or its own account or the account of any other Person (i) solicit, employ, or otherwise engage as an employee, independent contractor, or otherwise, any person who is or was an employee or independent contractor of the Company or in any manner induce or attempt to induce any such Person to terminate his or her employment or retention with the Company; or (ii) interfere with or attempt to divert the Company’s relationship with any Person, including without limitation any of the Company’s (1) suppliers, (2) vendors, (3) customers, or (4) potential customers with whom the Company has held substantive discussions regarding the Products. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Member shall be entitled to hire or engage any employee or independent contractor of the Company who was employed or retained by such Member prior to the date of this Agreement.
               (D) Non-Disparagement. During the Restricted Period and indefinitely thereafter, no Member, Restricted Member Affiliate, member of the Board or Officer shall, directly or indirectly, in any forum or manner, disparage the Company, its Members, the members of the Board, the Officers or the Affiliates of the Members.

               (E) Additional Restricted Member Affiliates. During the term of this Agreement, each Member shall require, as a condition of employment or retention by such Member, that each Person employed or retained by such Member who, if affiliated with such Member as of the date of this Agreement could reasonably be expected to have executed this Agreement as a Restricted Member Affiliate, execute a joinder to this Agreement in a form prescribed by the Board pursuant to which such Person shall become an additional Restricted Member Affiliate as if such Person were an original signatory to this Agreement; provided, however, that so long as there is no transfer of Anthony Vitucci’s ownership interest in Eclipse, Thomas Smigelski shall not be required to become an additional Restricted Member Affiliate.
               (F) Maximum Enforceable Scope. If, at the time of enforcement of any of the Restrictive Covenants, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the restrictions stated therein are unenforceable under applicable law and the circumstances then existing, then such covenant shall extend only to the maximum enforceable duration, scope of conduct prohibited or geographical extent as determined by such court.
               (G) Injunctive Relief. The Members and the Restricted Member Affiliates acknowledge that any remedy at law for any breach of the Restrictive Covenants would be inadequate and, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, consent to the granting by any court of an injunction or other equitable relief, without the necessity of actual monetary loss being proved, in order that a breach or threatened breach of the Restrictive Covenants may be effectively enjoined, and without the necessity of posting a bond or other security in excess of $1,000.
     Section 7.3 Transactions Between the Company and the Members
          Notwithstanding that it may constitute a conflict of interest, the Members, the members of the Board, or their respective Affiliates may engage in any transaction (including, without limitation, any amendment, supplement or other modification made to such transaction) with the Company (including, without limitation, the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service with the Company) so long as such transaction (including, without limitation, any amendment, supplement or other modification made to such transaction) is at arm’s length and approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the Eclipse Services Agreement, the PCTEL Line of Credit Documents, the PCTEL Services Agreement, and the rights of the Members pursuant to Section 9.2, Section 9.3, Section 9.5 and Section 9.6 are hereby approved by the Members and shall not require the approval of a majority of the disinterested members of the Board.

any inquiry or investigation that could lead to such a Proceeding, by reason of the fact that such Person, or a Person of which such Person is the legal representative, is or was a Member, a member of the Board, or an Officer shall be indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment) against judgments, penalties (including excise and similar taxes and punitive damages), fines, settlements and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and experts’ fees) actually incurred by such Person in connection with such Proceeding, appeal, inquiry or investigation (each, a “Claim”), unless such Claim shall have been the result of gross negligence, fraud or intentional misconduct by such Person, in which case such indemnification shall not cover such Claim to the extent resulting from such gross negligence, fraud or intentional misconduct. Indemnification under this Section 7.4 shall continue as to a Person who has ceased to serve in the capacity or retain the status which initially entitled such Person to indemnity hereunder. The rights granted pursuant to this Section 7.4 shall be deemed contract rights, and no amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 7.4 shall have the effect of limiting or denying any such rights in respect of actions taken or Proceedings, appeals, inquiries or investigations arising prior to any amendment, modification or repeal.
     Section 7.5 Nonexclusivity of Rights
          The right to indemnification and the advancement and payment of expenses conferred in Section 7.4 shall not be exclusive of any other right that a Member, member of the Board, Officer or other Person indemnified pursuant to Section 7.4 may have or hereafter acquire under any law (common or statutory) or provision of this Agreement.
     Section 7.6 Insurance
          The Company shall obtain and maintain, at its expense, insurance to protect itself and any Member, member of the Board, Officer or other agent of the Company against any expense, liability or loss for which such Person would be entitled to indemnification from the Company pursuant to Section 7.4.
     Section 7.7 Savings Clause
          If Section 7.4 or any portion thereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Company shall nevertheless indemnify and hold harmless each Person indemnified pursuant to Section 7.4 as to costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in respect of any such Proceeding, appeal, inquiry or investigation to the full extent permitted by any applicable portion of Section 7.4 that shall not have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

          Except as otherwise provided by the Act, the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations and liabilities of the Company, and no Member, member of the Board, or Officer of the Company shall be obligated personally for any such debt, obligation or liability of the Company solely by reason of being a Member, member of the Board, or Officer of the Company. Neither the Members nor any member of the Board shall be required to lend any funds to the Company. Each of the Members shall only be liable to make payment of required Capital Contributions as and when due hereunder and other payments as expressly provided in this Agreement. If and to the extent a Member shall have made all Capital Contributions in accordance with the preceding sentence, such Member shall not, except as required by the express provisions of the Act regarding repayment of sums wrongfully distributed to Members, be required to make any further contributions. No Member in its capacity as a Member shall have any power to represent, act for, sign for or bind the members of the Board or the Company, and the Members hereby consent to the exercise by the Board and Officers of the Company of the powers conferred on them by law and this Agreement.
ARTICLE VIII
TAXES
     Section 8.1 Tax Returns
          The President shall cause to be prepared and timely filed all necessary federal, state and local income tax returns for the Company, and shall make any elections and filings it may deem appropriate and in the best interests of the Members as a group. The President shall further cause all such tax returns or reports required to be filed by the Company to be sent to each Member for its review and comment at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to filing. Such tax returns shall be subject to each Member’s approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Each Member shall furnish to the Company all pertinent information in its possession relating to Company operations that is necessary to enable the Company’s income tax returns to be prepared and filed. The Company shall furnish all pertinent information to the Members that is necessary to determine amounts includable on their tax returns in respect of the Company (including Schedule K-1) as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of the Taxable Year taking into account any extension period granted by the relevant authority having jurisdiction over such matters.
     Section 8.2 Tax Matters Partner

determination of Company tax items at the Company level, and (ii) any discussions with the Internal Revenue Service relating to the allocations pursuant to ARTICLE V. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.2 to the contrary, the Tax Matters Partner shall not initiate any action or proceeding in any court, extend any statute of limitations, or take any other action contemplated by Code Sections 6222 through 6232 that would legally bind any other Member other than indirectly through the Company being bound by such action. The Company shall, upon the request of any Member, confer (or cause the Company’s advisers to confer) with such Member and its advisers on any matters relating to a Company tax return or any tax election. Promptly following the written request of the Tax Matters Partner, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, reimburse and indemnify the Tax Matters Partner for all reasonable expenses, including reasonable legal and accounting fees, claims, liabilities, losses and damages incurred by the Tax Matters Partner in connection with any administrative or judicial proceeding (i) in respect of the tax liability of the Company and/or (ii) in respect of the tax liability of the Members in connection with the operations of the Company. The provisions of this Section 8.2 shall survive the termination of the Company or the termination of any Member’s interest in the Company and shall remain binding on the Members for as long a period of time as is necessary to resolve with the Internal Revenue Service any and all matters regarding the Federal income taxation of the Company or the Members.

The closing date for the Second Call shall be specified in the Second Call Notice and shall be no earlier than twenty (20) days, and no later than sixty (60) days, following the date of the Second Call Notice (the “Second Call Closing Date”).

Company used to calculate the Second Call Price. In the event that any such Net Proceeds are received by PCTEL in a form other than cash (e.g., stock of an acquirer), Eclipse shall be entitled to ten percent (10%) or five percent (5%), as applicable, of such non-cash consideration, and shall not be entitled to cash in lieu thereof. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 9.4, PCTEL shall have no obligation to effect a Sale of the Company.
     Section 9.5 Eclipse Exit Option; Right of First Refusal
          If PCTEL does not exercise the Second Call, then within ten (10) days of the expiration of the Second Call Period, the Company shall notify PCTEL and Eclipse of the Company’s Enterprise Value as of the end of the Second Call Period (the “Enterprise Value Notice”). If the Enterprise Value as of the end of the Second Call Period is less than or equal to $4,900,000 (as calculated by the Board pursuant to the Second/Third Call Matrix and the accompanying calculation principles), then PCTEL shall have the rights set forth in Section 9.6. If the Enterprise Value as of the end of the Second Call Period is greater than $4,900,000, then Eclipse may solicit purchasers for its entire Membership Interest for a period of six (6) months from the end of the Second Call Period (the “Marketing Period”). At any time during the Marketing Period, Eclipse may issue a notice to PCTEL (a “Third Party Sale Notice”) of its receipt of a bona fide written offer and letter of intent, term sheet or similar document to sell all, but not less than all, of its Membership Interests to a single third party (a “Third Party Purchaser”) for cash, which Third Party Sale Notice shall include a true and correct copy of such letter of intent, term sheet or similar document. PCTEL shall thereafter have thirty (30) days (such period, the “Offer Period”) from its receipt of such notice to notify Eclipse in writing of its election to acquire Eclipse’s Membership Interests on the terms set forth therein. Should PCTEL fail to notify Eclipse in writing of such an election within the Offer Period, it shall be deemed to have elected not to purchase such Membership Interests and Eclipse may sell them on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Third Party Sale Notice; provided, however, that should (i) the gross price for the sale of such Membership Interests be reduced below ninety-five percent (95%) of the price set forth in the Third Party Sale Notice, or (ii) a period of thirty (30) days after the date of delivery of the Third Party Sale Notice expires without a sale of such Membership Interests, PCTEL shall have its right to purchase same reinstated in accordance with the procedure set forth in this Section 9.5. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no sale of Membership Interests to a Third Party Purchaser may be made pursuant to this Section 9.5 unless (a) all of the Company’s obligations pursuant to the PCTEL Line of Credit Documents have are paid in full in cash from the proceeds of such Third-Party Sale or from Eclipse (and in no event out of the proceeds of any Capital Contributions of PCTEL), (b) such Third Party Purchaser is not engaged in a business competitive with that of the Company or PCTEL (as determined, in each case, in good faith by the Board), and (c) such sale is closed within eight (8) months following the end of the Second Call Period (the “Eclipse Exit Period”).

               (A) Third Call Right. PCTEL may issue a notice to Eclipse (a “Third Call Notice”) requiring it to sell to PCTEL all Membership Interests then held by Eclipse, at the Third Call Price (the “Third Call”). The Closing date for the Third Call shall be specified in the Third Call Notice and shall be no earlier than twenty (20) days, and no later than sixty (60) days, following the date of the Third Call Notice (the “Third Call Closing Date”). PCTEL shall pay the Third Call Price in cash to Eclipse on the Third Call Closing Date. Simultaneously with the payment of the Third Call Price, Eclipse shall execute and deliver to PCTEL such assignments and other instruments as may be reasonably required to vest in PCTEL all right, title, and interest in and to the purchased Membership Interests, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, together with such additional instruments as may be required to effect a Code Section 754 election, which instruments shall contain only customary representations and warranties as to power and authority, title and liens and encumbrances.
               (B) Approved Sale. PCTEL may elect to sell all, but not less than all, of its Membership Interests to a third-party purchaser (an “Approved Sale”). In connection with an Approved Sale, the parties shall have the following rights:
                    (i) Drag-Along Right. PCTEL may, by written notice to Eclipse (a “Drag-Along Notice”), require Eclipse to sell all of its Membership Interests to such third-party purchaser on terms and conditions substantially identical to those on which PCTEL will sell its Membership Interests, and Eclipse shall vote for, consent to and raise no objections against the Approved Sale. Not in limitation of the foregoing, in connection with an Approved Sale, Eclipse agrees to take all steps necessary to comply, and to enable it to comply, with the provisions of this Section 9.6(B)(i), including without limitation the execution and delivery of appropriate instruments of transfer and such other agreements and instruments as may reasonably be required by the purchaser or PCTEL for the closing of the Approved Sale at such date and time as PCTEL shall specify. In connection with an Approved Sale: (1) Eclipse shall be required to make customary representations or warranties relating to (i) its own due incorporation and execution and delivery of the relevant agreements and instruments, (ii) the enforceability of such agreements and instruments against it, (iii) the absence of conflicts with agreements, laws and court and governmental orders applicable to it, (iv) its ownership of the Membership Interests being sold by it free and clear of all liens and encumbrances except those arising under this Agreement, and (v) such other representations or warranties as are reasonably necessary in order to effect the transfer of Membership Interests contemplated thereby; (2) Eclipse shall not be required to provide any indemnities except as provided in clause (3); (3) Eclipse may be required to execute and deliver the applicable purchase and sale agreements and in the event that a portion of the purchase price is required by the terms of such agreements to be placed in escrow or otherwise withheld to support purchase price adjustment obligations post-closing (including as it relates to indemnification required by the purchaser in a transaction for breaches of

representations or warranties relating to the Company and/or the Membership Interests or assets sold), Eclipse will have a pro rata portion of its purchase price placed in such escrow or otherwise withheld to be utilized to pay any such purchase price adjustment and/or indemnification obligations; and (4) Eclipse shall not be required to agree to restrictive covenants that would materially impair its ability to conduct its business as conducted as of the date of this Agreement (exclusive of the activities of the Company). Eclipse hereby consents to the appointment of a member representative by the Board for the purposes of all dealings with same and to the indemnification of such member representative for all actions taken in good faith in relation to same, all pursuant to a member representative agreement in a form approved by the Board in its reasonable discretion, which Eclipse agrees to execute promptly upon receipt.
                    (ii) Tag-Along Right. Eclipse may, by written notice to PCTEL (a “Tag-Along Notice”), require that, as a condition of such Approved Sale, such third-party purchaser purchase all of Eclipse’s Membership Interests on terms and conditions substantially identical to those under which PCTEL will sell its Membership Interests.
                    (iii) Conditions of Approved Sale. If the Approved Sale is structured as a merger or consolidation, Eclipse shall waive any dissenters’ rights, appraisal rights or similar rights in connection with such merger or consolidation. Eclipse shall take all necessary or desirable actions in connection with the consummation of the Approved Sale as may reasonably be requested by PCTEL. The obligations of Eclipse with respect to an Approved Sale are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) upon the consummation of the Approved Sale, both Members shall receive the same form of consideration and the same amount of consideration for their Membership Interests (subject to ratable adjustment for their relative Percentage Interests and taking into account any differences in their Capital Accounts and the allocations and Distributions associated with their Membership Interests); and (ii) if either Member is given an option as to the form and amount of consideration to be received, both Members shall be given the same option. Each Member will bear its pro rata share (subject to ratable adjustment for their relative Percentage Interests) of the costs of any sale of Membership Interests pursuant to an Approved Sale to the extent such costs are incurred for the benefit of both Members and are not otherwise paid by the Company or the acquiring party. For purposes of this Section 9.6(B)(i), costs incurred in exercising reasonable efforts to take all actions in connection with the consummation of an Approved Sale shall be deemed to be for the benefit of all Members. Costs incurred by a Member on its own behalf will not be considered costs of the transaction hereunder.
               (C) Failed Venture Election. If the Enterprise Value as of the end of the Second Call Period is less than or equal to $4,900,000, PCTEL may make a Failed Venture Election pursuant to Section 10.1(D).

     Section 9.7 Transfers Generally; Substituted Members; Rights and Obligations of Transferees and Transferring Members
               (A) Requirements. Without limiting the provisions of the remainder of this ARTICLE IX, a Transfer shall be valid hereunder only if:
                    (i) the Member proposing to make a Transfer of all or any portion of its Membership Interests (the “Transferring Member”) and the Transferee each executes and delivers to the Company such documents and instruments of conveyance as may be reasonably requested by the Board to effect such Transfer and to confirm the agreement of the Transferee to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement;
                    (ii) the Transferring Member and Transferee provide to the Board the Transferee’s taxpayer identification number and any other information reasonably necessary to permit the Company to file all required federal and state tax returns and other legally required information statements or returns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to make any Distribution otherwise provided for in this Agreement in respect of any Membership Interests transferred until the Board has received such information;
                    (iii) the Transferring Member furnishes to the Company (unless otherwise approved by the Board) an opinion of counsel, which counsel and opinion shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Board, that (a) the Transfer will not cause the Company to be deemed to be an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act, (b) the Transfer will not cause the Company to be taxed as a corporation pursuant to Section 7704 of the Code and will not result in a termination of the Company within the meaning of Section 708 of the Code, and (c) either the Membership Interests transferred have been registered under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or the Transfer is exempt from all applicable registration requirements and will not violate any applicable laws regulating the Transfer of securities; and
                    (iv) the Transferring Member reimburses the Company for all costs and expenses that the Company reasonably incurs in connection with the Transfer.
               (B) No Dissolution. A Transfer by a Member or other Person shall not itself dissolve the Company or entitle the Transferee to become a Member or exercise any rights of a Member.
               (C) Voting. Except as the Board may otherwise provide in a written consent approving the transfer of voting rights in connection with a proposed Transfer, such consent, if requested by the Transferring Member, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, a Transfer by a Member shall eliminate the Member’s power and right to vote (in proportion to the extent of the Membership Interests Transferred) on any matter submitted to the Members, and, for voting purposes, such Membership Interests shall not be counted as outstanding in proportion to the extent of the Membership Interests Transferred. A Transfer shall not otherwise

eliminate the Member’s entitlement to any rights associated with the Member’s remaining interest, including, without limitation, rights to information, and shall not cause the Member to be released from any liability to the Company solely as a result of the Transfer.
               (D) Admission of Transferee as Member. A Transferee shall become a substituted Member entitled to all the rights of a Member in respect of a Transferred Membership Interest if and only if (i) the Transferring Member gives the Transferee such right (which shall be presumed in the case of any voluntary Transfer unless the instrument of assignment expressly excludes such right), (ii) either (a) such admission is approved by the Board or (b) such Transfer is a Permitted Transfer, and (iii) the Transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. If the Transferee is admitted as a Member pursuant to this Section 9.7(D), (I) the voting and other rights associated with the Membership Interest held by the Transferee shall be restored and transferred to the Transferee and be held by the Transferee in its capacity as substituted Member along with all other rights in respect of the Transferred Membership Interests and (II) this Agreement shall be amended to admit such Transferee as a Member and to reflect the elimination of the Transferring Member (or the reduction of such Membership Interest) and (if and to the extent then required by the Act) a certificate of amendment to the Certificate reflecting such admission and elimination (or reduction) shall be filed in accordance with the Act. The admission of any substitute Member pursuant to this ARTICLE IX shall be deemed effective on the effective date of such amendment to this Agreement. A Transferee that is not admitted as a Member pursuant to this Section 9.7(D) shall be entitled only to the share in the Distributions and other economic benefits in respect of the Transferred Membership Interests and shall have no other rights (including, without limitation, rights to approve matters that require the unanimous approval of all of the Members, or rights to any information or accounting of the affairs of the Company or to inspect the books or records of the Company) in respect of the Transferred Membership Interests. The Transferee shall have no liability as a Member solely as a result of the Transfer unless admitted as a Member pursuant to this Section 9.7(D); provided, however, the Transferee shall in all cases be subject to all of the Transfer restrictions and other obligations applicable to a Member under this ARTICLE IX. The Company shall be entitled to treat the record owner of any interest in the Company as the absolute owner thereof and shall incur no liability for Distributions of cash or other property made in good faith to such owner until such time as a written assignment of such Membership Interest is permitted pursuant to the terms and conditions provided herein, and such assignment has been received and approved by the Board and has been recorded on the books of the Company.
               (E) Release. Notwithstanding the admission of a Transferee as a Member, unless released by the Board, the Transferring Member shall not be released from any obligations to the Company existing as of the date of the Transfer (other than obligations of the Transferring Member to make future Capital Contributions), but such admission shall cause the Transferring Member to cease to be a Member in respect of the Membership Interests transferred when the Transferee becomes a Member. In any such case, the admission of the Transferee as a Member shall constitute the requisite consent of the Members to continue the business of the Company

notwithstanding that such admission will cause the termination of the membership of the Transferring Member in respect of the Membership Interests transferred.
     Section 9.8 Distributions and Allocations Regarding Transferred Membership Interests
          Upon any Transfer during any Taxable Year of the Company made in compliance with the provisions of this ARTICLE IX, profits, losses, each item thereof and all other items attributable to such Membership Interests for such Taxable Year shall be divided and allocated between the Transferring Member and the Transferee by taking into account the periods of time of their respective Membership Interests during such Taxable Year, using any conventions permitted by law and selected by the Board. All Distributions on or before the date of such Transfer shall be made to the Transferring Member and all Distributions thereafter shall be made to the Transferee. Solely for purposes of making such allocations and Distributions, the Company shall recognize such Transfer not later than the end of the calendar month during which it is given notice of such Transfer, provided that, if the Company is given notice of a Transfer at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Transfer, the Company shall recognize such Transfer as the date of such Transfer, and provided, further, that, if the Company does not receive a notice stating the date such Membership Interest was transferred and such other information as the Board may reasonably require within thirty (30) days after the end of the Taxable Year during which the Transfer occurs, then all such items shall be allocated, and all Distributions shall be made, to the Member that, according to the books and records of the Company, was the owner of the Membership Interests on the last day of the Taxable Year during which the Transfer occurs. Neither the Company nor the Board shall incur any liability for making allocations and Distributions in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.8, whether or not the Company or the Board has knowledge of any Transfer of any Membership Interests.
     Section 9.9 Resignation
          No Member shall have the right to resign or withdraw as a Member without the prior written approval of all of the Members, which each Member may give or withhold in its sole and absolute discretion. Any Member that resigns without the approval of all of the Members in contravention of this Section 9.9 shall be liable to the Company for all damages (including all lost profits and special, indirect and consequential damages) directly or indirectly caused by the resignation of such Member, and such Member shall be entitled to receive the fair value of its Membership Interest as of the date of its resignation (or, if less, the fair value of its interest as of the winding-up of the Company), as conclusively determined by the Board, only following the occurrence of the winding-up of the Company.
     Section 9.10 No Appraisal Rights
          No Member shall be entitled to any appraisal rights in respect of such Member’s Membership Interest, whether individually or as part of any class or group of Members, in the

event of a merger, consolidation, or other transaction involving the Company or its securities unless such rights are expressly provided herein or by the agreement of merger, agreement of consolidation or other document effectuating such transaction.
     Section 9.11 Void Assignment
          Any Transfer by any Member in contravention of this Agreement shall be void and ineffectual and shall not bind or be recognized by the Company or any other Person. In the event of any Transfer in contravention of this Agreement, the purported transferee shall have no right to any profits, losses or Distributions of the Company or any other rights of a Member.
ARTICLE X
DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION
     Section 10.1 Dissolution
          The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs shall be wound up on the first to occur of the following:
               (A) the unanimous approval of all of the Members as evidenced by each Member’s written direction to its respective Board members to approve such termination;
               (B) the sale by the Company of substantially all of its business assets;
               (C) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under Section 18-802 of the Act; and
               (D) at the election of PCTEL in the event of a Failed Venture at any time within the nine (9) month period following the end of the Second Call Period (a “Failed Venture Election”).
The death, retirement, resignation, expulsion, incapacity, bankruptcy or dissolution of a Member, or the occurrence of any other event that terminates the continued membership of a Member in the Company, shall not cause a dissolution of the Company, and the Company shall continue in existence subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
     Section 10.2 Liquidation and Termination
               (A) Board as Liquidator. Upon dissolution of the Company, the Board shall act as liquidator or may appoint one or more Officers as liquidator. The liquidator shall thereafter use commercially reasonable efforts to wind up the affairs of the Company, sell the Company’s assets at the best price available and make final Distributions as provided herein and in the Act.
               (B) Liquidation Procedures. The costs of liquidation shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final Distribution, the liquidator shall continue to operate the Company with all

of the power and authority of the Board. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidator are as follows:
                    (i) As promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final liquidation, the liquidator(s) shall cause a proper accounting to be made by a recognized firm of certified public accountants of the Company’s assets, liabilities and operations through the last day of the calendar month in which the dissolution occurs or the final liquidation is completed, as applicable.
                    (ii) The liquidator(s) shall cause the notice described in the Act to be mailed to each known creditor of and claimant against the Company in the manner described thereunder.
                    (iii) The liquidator(s) shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Company funds all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company (including, without limitation, all obligations then outstanding with respect to the PCTEL Line of Credit and all expenses incurred in liquidation) or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including, without limitation, the establishment of a cash fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as the liquidator may reasonably determine).
                    (iv) The balance, if any, of the Company’s remaining assets shall be distributed to the Members in the order and priority set forth in Section 5.3; provided, however, that in connection with a liquidation following a Failed Venture Election, (a) the Company’s intellectual property, and all tangible personal property containing same, shall be conveyed to PCTEL, and all Members shall execute such agreements and instruments as may reasonably be required to vest or confirm title to same in PCTEL, without payment of additional consideration, and (b) PCTEL and Eclipse shall enter into a license agreement substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D, with the license fees and royalties thereunder to be determined upon liquidation by a mutually-acceptable intellectual property appraisal service (the “Intellectual Property License Agreement”).
Distributions pursuant to this Section 10.2(B) shall be made by the end of the Taxable Year of the Company during which the liquidation occurs (or, if later, ninety (90) days after the date of the liquidation). Unless the liquidation follows a Failed Venture Election, the liquidator(s) shall cause only cash, evidences of indebtedness and other securities to be distributed in any liquidation. The Distribution of cash and/or property to a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.2 constitutes a complete return to such Member of its Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Member of its Membership Interests in all the property owned by the Company and constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented within the meaning of the Act. The Distribution of cash and/or property to a Transferee who is not a Member in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.2 constitutes a complete distribution to such Transferee of its Membership Interests in all property owned by the Company and constitutes a compromise to which all Members have consented

within the meaning of the Act. To the extent that a Member returns funds to the Company, it has no claim against any other Member for those funds.
     Section 10.3 Deemed Distribution and Reconstitution
          Notwithstanding any other provision of this ARTICLE X, in the event the Company is “liquidated” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(g), the Company’s assets shall not be liquidated, the Company’s liabilities shall not be paid or discharged, and the Company’s affairs shall not be wound up. Instead, the Company shall be deemed solely for income tax purposes, to have contributed its assets to a newly-created income tax partnership in exchange for such company’s assumption of the Company’s liabilities and equity interests in such new income tax partnership. Immediately thereafter, the Company shall be deemed, solely for income tax purposes, to have distributed the interest in the new income tax partnership to the Members in accordance with their Capital Accounts.
     Section 10.4 Deficit Capital Accounts
          Notwithstanding any custom or rule of law to the contrary, to the extent that any Member has a deficit Capital Account balance, upon dissolution of the Company such deficit shall not be an asset of the Company and such Members shall not be obligated to contribute such amount to the Company to bring the balance of such Member’s Capital Account to zero.
     Section 10.5 Cancellation of Certificate
          On completion of the Distribution of Company assets as provided herein, the Company is terminated, and shall file a certificate of cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, cancel any other filings made pursuant to Section 2.1 and take such other actions as may be necessary to terminate the Company.
ARTICLE XI
ARBITRATION
     Section 11.1 Arbitration Required
               (A) Any and all Arbitrable Disputes that cannot be resolved between the Members, or a Member and the Company, as applicable (the “Disputing Parties”), within thirty (30) days following delivery of a written notice from one Disputing Party to the other(s) addressing such Arbitrable Dispute, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration in Chicago, Illinois, before one arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”). The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS, Inc. pursuant to its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. Judgment on the arbitral award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. The arbitrator may, in the Award, allocate all or part of the costs of the arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrator and

the reasonable attorneys’ fees of the prevailing party. If more than one issue shall be submitted to the same Arbitrator for resolution, each such issue shall be deemed a separate arbitration for all purposes hereof, such issues shall be identified separately by the Disputing Parties in their submission to arbitration, and each such issue shall be subject to a separate decision by the Arbitrator. Any Arbitrator appointed hereunder shall be mutually acceptable to the Disputing Parties; provided, however, if the Disputing Parties are unable to mutually agree upon an Arbitrator, each of the Disputing Parties shall appoint an arbitrator (an “Appointing Arbitrator”) and such Appointing Arbitrators shall then mutually select an Arbitrator for the applicable Arbitrable Dispute (but such Appointing Arbitrators shall not themselves administer or be otherwise involved in such Arbitrable Dispute).
               (B) Notwithstanding anything in this ARTICLE XI to the contrary, the Disputing Parties shall have the right to commence litigation or other legal proceedings with respect to any claims solely relating to: (i) preserving or protecting Confidential Information, (ii) other emergency or injunctive relief, or (iii) enforcement of the dispute resolution provisions of this Agreement and/or any arbitration award.
               (C) Any litigation (permitted herein) or arbitration of an Arbitrable Dispute must be initiated within one (1) year from the date on which any Disputing Party first gave written notice to the other Disputing Party(ies) of the existence of the Arbitrable Dispute, and any Disputing Party who fails to commence litigation or arbitration within such one-year period shall be deemed to have waived any of its affirmative rights and claims in connection with the Arbitrable Dispute and shall be barred from asserting such rights and claims at any time thereafter. An arbitration shall be deemed commenced by a Disputing Party when such Disputing Party sends a notice to the other Disputing Party(ies), identifying the Arbitrable Dispute and requesting arbitration. Litigation shall be deemed commenced by a Disputing Party when such Disputing Party serves a complaint on the other Member(s) with respect to the Arbitrable Dispute.
     Section 11.2 GOVERNING LAW; DAMAGE RESTRICTIONS
          THE ARBITRATOR SHALL HAVE NO AUTHORITY TO VARY OR IGNORE THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, SHALL BE BOUND BY SECTION 12.16 WITH RESPECT TO GOVERNING LAW, AND SHALL BE BOUND BY SECTION 12.14 WITH RESPECT TO DAMAGES. ALL PROCEEDINGS, AWARDS AND DECISIONS UNDER ANY ARBITRATION PROCEEDING SHALL BE STRICTLY PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL.
     Section 11.3 Compensation of Arbitration Tribunal
          As soon as practicable after selection of the Arbitration Tribunal, the Arbitration Tribunal or its designated representative shall determine a reasonable estimate of the anticipated fees and costs, and send a statement to each Disputing Party setting forth that Disputing Party’s share of the fees and costs, which shall be proportional to their respective Percentage Interests. Within ten

(10) days after receipt of the statement, each Disputing Party shall deposit the required sum with the Arbitration Tribunal, as applicable.
ARTICLE XII
GENERAL/MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
     Section 12.1 Offset
          Whenever the Company is to pay any sum to any Member, any amounts that such Member owes to the Company may be deducted from that sum before payment; provided, however, that the full amount that would otherwise be distributed shall be debited from the Member’s Capital Account pursuant to Section 4.1.
     Section 12.2 Waiver of Certain Rights
          Except as expressly provided herein, each Member irrevocably waives any right it may have to demand any distributions or withdrawal of property from the Company or to maintain any action for dissolution (except pursuant to Section 18-802 of the Act) of the Company or for partition of the property of the Company.
     Section 12.3 Indemnification and Reimbursement for Payments on Behalf of a Member
          If the Company is obligated to pay any amount to a Governmental Body because of a Member’s status or otherwise specifically attributable to a Member (including, without limitation, federal, state or local withholding taxes imposed in respect of any issuance of Membership Interests to a Member or any payments to a Member, federal withholding taxes in respect of foreign Persons, state personal property taxes, state personal property replacement taxes, state unincorporated business taxes, etc.), then such Member (the “Indemnifying Member”) shall indemnify the Company in full for the entire amount paid. At the option of the Board, either:
               (A) promptly upon notification of an obligation to indemnify the Company, the Indemnifying Member shall make a cash payment to the Company equal to the full amount to be indemnified (provided that the amount paid shall not be treated as a Capital Contribution); or
               (B) the Company shall reduce Distributions that would otherwise be made to the Indemnifying Member, until the Company has recovered the amount to be indemnified (provided that the amount of such reduction shall be deemed to have been distributed for all purposes of this Agreement).
An Indemnifying Member’s obligation to indemnify the Company under this Section 12.3 shall survive the termination, dissolution, liquidation and winding up of the Company and, for purposes of this Section 12.3, the Company shall be treated as continuing in existence. The

Company may pursue and enforce all rights and remedies it may have against each Indemnifying Member under this Section 12.3, including instituting a lawsuit to collect any amounts owed to the Company by such Indemnifying Member pursuant to this Section 12.3 with interest calculated at the Prime Rate plus one hundred (100) basis points per annum (but not in excess of the highest rate per annum permitted by law).
     Section 12.4 Notices
          Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, all notices, demands or other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement must be in writing and shall be deemed delivered: (i) upon delivery if delivered in person; (ii) if mailed by deposit in the United States mail, addressed to the recipient, postage paid, and registered or certified with return receipt requested, then upon the date indicated in such return receipt; (iii) upon transmission if sent via telecopier, with a confirmation copy sent via a national overnight courier for next Business Day delivery, provided that confirmation of such overnight delivery is received; or (iv) one (1) Business Day after deposit with a national overnight courier for next Business Day delivery, provided that confirmation of such overnight delivery is received. All notices, requests and consents to be sent to a Member must be sent to or made at the address (or facsimile number) given for that Member on Exhibit C, or such other address (or facsimile number) as that Member may specify by notice to the other Members. Copies thereof must be sent to each Member’s legal counsel, as such counsel shall have been designated by each Member to the Company from time to time. Any notice, request or consent to the Company or the Board must be given to the Board and, if appointed, the Secretary of the Company at the Company’s chief executive offices. Whenever any notice is required to be given by law or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.
     Section 12.5 Public Announcements
          No Member shall make any public announcement or filing in respect of the transactions provided for herein without the approval of the Board, unless such Member has been advised by counsel such disclosure is required by applicable law. To the extent reasonably feasible, any press release or other announcement or notice regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be made by the Board or any other party designated by the Board.
     Section 12.6 Entire Agreement
          This Agreement and other written agreements among the Members and their Affiliates relating to the Company of even date herewith constitute the entire agreement among the Members relating to the Company and supersede all prior contracts or agreements in respect of the Company, whether oral or written.

     Section 12.7 Effect of Waiver or Consent
          A waiver or consent, express or implied, of or to any breach or default by any Person in the performance by that Person of its obligations hereunder or in respect of the Company is not a consent or waiver of or to any other breach or default in the performance by that Person of the same or any other obligations of that Person hereunder or in respect of the Company.

                         11.1.1.1 If the other Party defaults in the payment of any amount due pursuant to this Agreement and continues in default without curing for fifteen (15) days after the other Party’s receipt of written notice of such default and demand that the same be cured;

ARTICLE 13
INFRINGEMENTS
     13.1 General Terms. In the event that either Party becomes aware of any Licensed Products used, manufactured, sold, offered for sale, or imported for sale by a third party which infringes or may reasonably be alleged to infringe upon the Licensed Patents or any claim therein, or any material or thing that misappropriates any Confidential Information, that Party shall promptly inform the other Party of such.
     13.2 Prosecution. Licensor may prosecute any alleged infringement or threatened infringement of any Licensed Patents of which it is aware or which is brought to its attention including through litigation. Licensor shall act in its own name and at its own expense. At Licensee’s option and in Licensee’s sole discretion, Licensee may participate in such prosecution of any alleged infringement or threatened infringement by Licensor, and in such case the Parties shall equally bear all costs and expenses, and equally share all recoveries and damages. If Licensor has failed to prosecute any alleged infringement or threatened infringement as required under Section 13.2 relating to any Licensed Patents (i) four (4) months after it has been notified in writing of such alleged infringement, or (ii) two (2) months before the time limit, if any, set forth in the appropriate laws and regulations for the filing of such actions, whichever comes first, Licensee may, but shall not be required to, prosecute any such alleged infringement or threatened infringement of a patent within the Licensed Patents. In any such event, Licensee shall be free to act in its own name (or shall have the right to name Licensor as a party plaintiff in the event that the law governing such action requires the naming of the owner of the licensed patent for purposes of such action) and at its own expense and for its sole benefit. Licensee shall be entitled to any and all recoveries and damages which result from any such action commenced by Licensee. Each Party agrees to cooperate with the other Party in any infringement action brought pursuant to this Article 13, provided that such cooperation shall be at no cost to the cooperating Party.
     13.3 Counterclaims. In the event that the third party infringer asserts a counterclaim alleging that the subject Licensed Patent or Confidential Information is void or invalid, the Party asserting the claim of infringement or misappropriation shall be solely responsible for defending against the counterclaim, at its sole cost and expense. In the event such a counterclaim is asserted, the other Party may elect to participate in the defense of the counterclaim at its expense.
ARTICLE 14
CONFIDENTIALITY
Without limiting the applicability of any other agreement to which a Party may be subject, neither Party shall, directly or indirectly, disclose or use at any time, whether during the term of this Agreement or thereafter, any Confidential Information of which such Party is or becomes aware. Each Party in possession of Confidential Information shall take all appropriate steps to safeguard such information and to protect it against disclosure, misuse, espionage, loss and theft. Notwithstanding the above, a Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent that (i) the disclosure is necessary for it to fulfill duties to the other Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other written agreement, (ii) the disclosure is required by law or court order or (iii) the disclosure is necessary to enforce rights hereunder.

ARTICLE 16
MAINTENANCE OF ANY LICENSED APPLICATIONS
AND LICENSED PATENTS MATURING THEREFROM

Licensor shall act diligently at its own cost and expense to obtain, sustain, reissue, reexamine or extend the Licensed Applications and the Licensed Patents so as to ensure that Licensed Patents are enforceable at all times during the term of this Agreement, including but not limited to paying all maintenance fees associated with the Licensed Patents.

ARTICLE 17

Upon the occurrence of any such event, the affected Party shall immediately notify the other Party as much in detail as possible and shall keep the other Party informed of any further developments of such event. Immediately after such event ceases or is removed, the affected Party shall perform all its obligations pending with reasonable promptness, unless this Agreement has been previously been terminated.
ARTICLE 18
MISCELLANEOUS
     18.1 Injunctive Relief. The Parties acknowledge that any remedy at law for any breach of the terms of this Agreement would be inadequate and, notwithstanding any other provision of
1815968-2

 


 

this Agreement, consent to the granting by any court of an injunction or other equitable relief, without the necessity of actual monetary loss being proved, in order that a breach or threatened breach hereof may be effectively enjoined, and without the necessity of posting a bond or other security in excess of $1,000.
     18.2 Notices. Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, all notices, demands or other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement must be in writing and shall be deemed delivered: (i) upon delivery if delivered in person; (ii) if mailed by deposit in the United States mail, addressed to the recipient, postage paid, and registered or certified with return receipt requested, then upon the date indicated in such return receipt or upon which delivery is refused; (iii) upon transmission if sent via telecopier, with a confirmation copy sent via a national overnight courier for next business day delivery, provided that confirmation of such overnight delivery is received; or (iv) one (1) business day after deposit with a national overnight courier for next business day delivery, provided that confirmation of such overnight delivery is received. All notices, requests and consents to be sent to a Party must be sent to or made at the address (or facsimile number) given for that Party on Exhibit C to the JV LLC Agreement, or such other address (or facsimile number) as that Party may specify by notice to the other Party. Whenever any notice is required to be given by law or this Agreement, a written waiver thereof, signed by the Party entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.
     18.3 Public Announcements. No Party shall make any public announcement or filing in respect of the transactions provided for herein without the approval of the other Party, unless such Party has been advised by counsel such disclosure is required by, or desirable for compliance with, applicable law.
     18.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and other written agreements among the Parties and their Affiliates relating to the Joint Venture LLC, including without limitation the JV LLC Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior contracts or agreements in respect thereof, whether oral or written.
     18.5 Effect of Waiver or Consent. A waiver or consent, express or implied, of or to any breach or default by a Party in the performance by that Party of its obligations hereunder is not a consent or waiver of or to any other breach or default in the performance by that Party of the same or any other obligations of that Party hereunder. Failure on the part of a Party to complain of any act of any Party or to declare any Party in default hereunder, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that Party of its rights in respect of that default until the applicable statute-of-limitations period has run.
     18.6 Amendment or Modification. This Agreement and any provision hereof may be amended or modified from time to time only by a written instrument approved by the Parties.
     18.7 Severability. In the event that any one or more of the phrases, sentences, sections, articles or sections contained in this Agreement shall be declared invalid or unenforceable by order, decree or judgment of any court having jurisdiction, or shall be or become invalid or unenforceable by virtue of any applicable law, the remainder of this Agreement shall be
1815968-2

 


 

construed as if such phrases, sentences, sections, articles or sections had not been inserted except when such construction (i) shall operate as an undue hardship on any Party or (ii) shall constitute a substantial deviation from the general intent and purposes of the Parties as reflected in this Agreement. In the event of either (i) or (ii) above, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate a mutually satisfactory amendment to this Agreement to circumvent such adverse construction.
     18.8 Successors and Assigns. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement is binding on and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective heirs, legal representatives, administrators, executors, successors and permitted assigns.
     18.9 Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each Party shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and those transactions.
     18.10 Prevailing Parties. If any litigation or other court action, arbitration or similar adjudicatory proceeding is commenced by any Party to enforce its rights under this Agreement against any other Party, all fees, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and court costs, incurred by the prevailing Party in such litigation, action, arbitration or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the losing Party; provided, however, that if a Party to such litigation, action, arbitration or proceeding prevails in part, and loses in part, the court, arbitrator or other adjudicator presiding over such litigation, action, arbitration or proceeding shall award a reimbursement of the fees, costs and expenses incurred by such Party on an equitable basis.
     18.11 Third Parties. Nothing herein expressed or implied is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give to any person or entity, other than the Parties to this Agreement, and each of their respective successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.
     18.12 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT IS GOVERNED BY AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS EXCLUDING ANY CONFLICT-OF-LAWS RULE OR PRINCIPLE THAT MIGHT REFER THE GOVERNANCE OR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.
     18.13 Waiver of Jury Trial. The Parties each hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to a jury trial of any claim, demand, action, or cause of action (i) arising under this Agreement or (ii) in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties hereto in respect of this Agreement or any of the transactions related hereto, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise. The Parties each hereby agree and consent that any such claim, demand, action, or cause of action shall be decided by court trial without a jury and that the parties to this Agreement may file an original counterpart of a copy of this Agreement with any court as written evidence of the consent of the parties hereto to the waiver of their right to trial by jury.
1815968-2

 


 

     18.14 Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts with the same effect as if the Parties had signed the same document. All counterparts shall be construed together and constitute the same instrument. This Agreement may be executed by the Parties and transmitted by facsimile and when it is executed and transmitted in such manner this Agreement shall be for all purposes as effective as if the Party signing had delivered an executed original of this Agreement.
     18.15 Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a substantive part of this Agreement.
     18.16 Conflicts. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement in such jurisdiction or affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any provision in any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.
     18.17 Time of the Essence; Computation of Time. Time is of the essence for each and every provision of this Agreement. Whenever the last day for the exercise of any privilege or the discharge or any duty hereunder shall fall upon a Saturday, Sunday, or any date on which banks in Chicago, Illinois are authorized to be closed, the party having such privilege or duty may exercise such privilege or discharge such duty on the next succeeding day which is a regular business day.
     18.18 No Strict Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring a Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.
