Effective Date: March 25, 2020

 

This Software License & Related Services AGREEMENT (the “SLA” or “this Agreement”) is effective as of the date above and is entered into by and between PDF Solutions, Inc., a Delaware (USA) corporation (“PDF” or “Licensor”), and that corporation identified in the signature block at the end of this SLA (“Other Company” or “Licensee”) (each, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”).

 

WHEREAS, PDF has developed and licenses commercially certain software and Licensee may desire to license such software in connection with its design, manufacture, test, assembly, and/or packaging of semiconductors;

 

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to enter into this SLA to establish the foundation by which Other Company may from time to time license PDF’s software, generally subject to these terms and conditions, with the specific product, license scope, fees, payment terms, etc. set forth in one or more future Order Forms (as defined below) and/or engage PDF to provide software-related professional engineering services, as set forth in Order Form(s) from time to time hereunder.

 

NOW THEREFORE, the Parties, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Order Forms. The Agreements sets the terms and conditions that shall govern all the license of Software (including via SaaS if so agreed by the Parties), the lease or sell-through of related hardware (to the extent applicable), and Services to be provided by PDF (to the extent applicable) from time to time hereunder. If attached hereto, upon signature hereon, Other Company hereby purchases from PDF, and PDF agrees to grant, subject to Other Company’s payment of the applicable fees (if any), those certain Licenses to the Software and related Services set forth on Exhibit I (the initial “Order Form”). Additional orders, or if no Exhibit I is attached to this SLA, future orders may be placed by Licensee and made part of this Agreement by the Parties from time to time upon PDF’s acceptance of an authorized purchase order (“PO”) issued to PDF by Licensee that references a valid PDF quote number (each, an “Order Form”); provided that the content and terms of each such Order Form are as set forth on the referenced PDF quote, including, without limitation, the specific Software products licensed, the number of users/tools permitted to use/connect to the Software, applicable time periods including start and end dates, which, with respect to a license indicate the term-based license period for such Software (such Software License, a “TBL,” and such period, the “TBL Period”), and the payment terms applicable to each order. For clarification, PDF’s quotes are made considering all items listed therein and are not changeable by Licensee’s PO. Thus, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, by issuing a PO for any product(s) or service(s) set forth on a quote, Licensee agrees to purchase all products and services set forth on such quote. The PO may not change or add to any terms of the quote or this Agreement, and any additional or different terms included in or referenced by such PO are hereby expressly rejected by the Parties. With respect to any licensing or acquisition of Software or related Services from PDF by an Affiliate of Other Company, PDF will quote to and invoice the Affiliate, who agrees to pay PDF as set forth in the PO issued by the Affiliate, however, Other Company hereby agrees (i) to be responsible for compliance with the Agreement and payment by such Affiliate; and, (ii) that PDF's remedy for any non-compliance or non-payment will be jointly and severally against both such Affiliate and Other Company. An Affiliate’s issuance to PDF of a PO that references PDF’s quotation hereunder, constitutes such Affiliate’s agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions hereof. “Affiliate” as used herein means an entity that is controlled by Other Company, controls Other Company, or is under common control with Other Company. Control means that more than fifty percent (50%) of the controlled entity’s shares or ownership interest representing the right to make decisions for such entity are owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by the controlling entity. An entity is considered to be an Affiliate so long as such ownership or control exists.

 

2. Order Forms and Licenses. With respect to each Order Form, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and to payment of the applicable fees in each such case, PDF grants to Licensee a revocable, fully-paid up, non-transferable, non-exclusive right (without the right to sublicense) during the term set forth on each such Order Form (e.g., a perpetual license or during the TBL Period) to permit Licensed Users and Authorized Contractors, as shall be defined in the Order Form, to:

 

 

(i)

Install and access (in the event of SaaS, only through the Cloudsite), copy, and use the product listed on such Order Form in accordance with the specific License set forth for each such product on the Order Form and, in any event, solely regarding wafers or components designed, tested, assembled, and/or manufactured by or for Licensee; and

 

 

(ii)

access, copy, and use the Documentation solely in support of permitted use of the Software.

 

3. Hosting of the Software by a 3rd Party Provider. PDF hereby consents to Licensee hosting the Software at/by a 3rd party provider, subject to Licensee providing PDF with the name and location of such 3rd party provider. In such case, the location of such 3rd party provider’s servers on which the Software is installed is deemed to be contained within the definition of Licensee’s “Designated Site.” If Licensee desires to re-host the Software, internally on servers with different host IDs, etc., or at a different 3rd party provider from where the Software was originally installed, PDF agrees to provide replacement license file(s) at no cost to Licensee, subject to Licensee being current on all M&S obligations (if any) for Software then under license from PDF. In all other cases, including if the Licensee is not current on such M&S, Licensee shall pay to PDF a fee of two thousand five hundred USD ($2,500) for each new license file requested by Licensee and fulfilled by PDF, which the Parties agree to document on an Order Form. In the event of unauthorized disclosure or use by any such 3rd party of PDF’s Confidential Information, and notwithstanding any general limitation of liability, Licensee hereby agrees to hold PDF harmless for loss or damage arising therefrom.

4. Eval Software. From time to time hereunder, as mutually agreed by the Parties, PDF may grant to Licensee short-term licenses to Eval Software at no charge, which (i) Eval Software is subject to the general terms and conditions of this Agreement with the specific term, site, TPID/CPU/hostID (as applicable) and maximum number of concurrent Licensed Users set forth in the license file issued by PDF for such Eval Software; and (ii) shall only be used by Licensee for evaluation purposes.

 

5. Related Services. If included on an Order Form and subject to payment of the applicable fees, PDF will provide at a mutually agreed upon time:

 

 

(i)

installation services, consisting of the initial addition of the Software to Licensee’s computing environment at the Designated Site(s), other agreed installation site, and/or if with respect to PDF’s tool-specific software, on a Designated Tool, along with successful demonstration of output reports using sample data;

 

 

(ii)

training on the Software to the Licensed Users;

 

 

(iii)

other services as specified in an Order Form (e.g., integration or engineering services); and,

 

 

(iv)

M&S Services, which in the case of TBLs, shall run with the License Term, and which, in the case of a perpetual license that requires installation/integration services, the initial period for which, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, shall start no later than two (2) months after initial delivery of the first license file for such Software.

 

To support Licensee’s order of the types of services listed in (i) – (iii) above (each, a “Service,” and, collectively, the “Services”), Licensee will provide computer input/output facilities, assistance and computer time as reasonably requested as necessary for PDF to perform such services. All M&S Services shall be performed by PDF from PDF’s locations only. Licensee shall pay PDF the fees for Services and M&S Services, if any, set forth in the applicable Order Form, including, if set forth therein, reimbursement to PDF for actual reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by PDF in connection with providing such services. For the avoidance of doubt, PDF is under no obligation to support Eval Software in any way, or to provide any improvements, enhancements, modifications, updates or releases to or for Eval Software.

 

6. License Restrictions. As each such scenario applies, Licensee (including its employees and contractors) shall not, and shall have no right to: (i) reverse engineer or decompile any Licensed Materials, or otherwise attempt to derive or modify the source code of, or any processes, techniques, methods, specifications, protocols, algorithms, interfaces, data structures or other information embodied or used in, any Licensed Materials (except as may be required by law for interoperability); (ii) disclose or make accessible any Licensed Materials to any person or entity that is not a Licensed User or Authorized Contractor; (iii) rent, lease, loan, sell or otherwise distribute any Licensed Materials or provide data processing services using Licensed Materials to a third party; (iv) transfer tool-limited or tool-type-limited Software from the tool or tool-type, as applicable, on which it was originally installed or for which it was licensed (as set forth in the applicable Order Form), respectively; or, (v) use any 3rd-party programs delivered to Licensee by PDF hereunder with any program other than the Software or other than in accordance with this Agreement, including any additional terms and conditions applicable to such 3rd-party programs that are set forth under that section entitled “3rd-Party Specific License Terms” at http://www.pdf.com/definitions.

 

7. Reservation of Rights; Confidentiality. As between the Parties, all rights relating to the Licensed Materials not expressly granted hereunder to Licensee are reserved and retained by PDF. PDF may access and use info/data resulting from Licensee’s use of, and feedback on, PDF Software, Services and/or Application for ensuring compliance with PDF’s license terms, general product development, and benchmarking purposes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, PDF exclusively owns (and Licensee will not use except as permitted under this SLA) electrical characterization technology, software (including Software, as defined below), hardware provided and owed by PDF for use with the Software (including third party software included/installed on such hardware, “Hardware”), and proprietary methodologies (including, without limitation, documentation related to any of the foregoing, solutions/package and pricing information, license terms and conditions, database schema, configurations, data formats, product performance and roadmap plans, and related methodologies and services proposals), as well as scripts and programs written to PDF’s API to load data into PDF’s software (sometime called filter plans or templates). Each Party agrees to not use any of the other Party’s confidential or proprietary information learned during the course this Agreement or in connection with the license or potential license of PDF’s software or provision of services other than as permitted under this Agreement, and shall protect against the unauthorized use or disclosure of all such information using the same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, that it uses to protect its most valuable confidential and proprietary information. Neither Party shall disclose the financial or other terms of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party; provided, however, that Licensee hereby authorizes PDF to issue a press release to the public generally announcing Licensee as a customer of the Software and, where applicable: (a) disclose this SLA (and any amendments hereto) and all Order Forms hereunder to licensors of included or enabling technology or software only in connection with royalty reporting to such entities, if any; and, (b) identify Licensee (using Licensee’s logo in such regard) as a commercial licensee of the Software, including by making reference thereto on the PDF website (www.pdf.com) and other public presentation materials. In addition to information about the pricing and configuration of the Software, Licensee acknowledges that the Licensed Material itself constitutes the confidential information of PDF, and agrees, in any event, not to disclose PDF’s confidential information to any person or entity that is a competitor or potential competitor of PDF (as determined by PDF in its sole discretion), unless approved in advance in writing by PDF. For the avoidance of doubt, Authorized Contractors and 3rd-party service providers engaged by PDF, if any, are deemed approved by PDF. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, both Parties are expressly allowed to disclose the terms of this agreement to (i) Other Company’s Affiliates or (ii) pursuant to the order or legal requirement of a court or other governmental body, however, such party shall provide prompt notice to the other party so that it can seek a protective order or otherwise protect its interests.

8. Warranty. Eval Software as described in Section 4 is provided “AS IS”. In the event of other installed Software, PDF warrants to Licensee that, during a period of ninety (90) days following full execution of this Agreement, regardless whether data integration and data loading has started or not, (the “Warranty Period”), the Software will be free of Errors. If during the Warranty Period Licensee submits an Error notification to PDF in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable M&S Service terms and conditions, PDF will, at PDF’s expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to correct the Error identified in such notice, provided that if PDF is unable to correct the Error within ninety (90) days of such submission, Licensee will have the right to terminate this Agreement for a refund of the license fees for the defective Software as well as M&S Services fees for such defective Software that are actually paid by Licensee for the period during which the unresolved defect occurred. For clarification and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any fees paid by Licensee for Services performed and Hardware are not refundable. If PDF is not able to correct the Error within ninety (90) days and Licensee does not terminate this Agreement within ninety (90) days, of such submission, Licensee may not terminate this Agreement for such Warranty Issue thereafter. In such case, when and if available, PDF may in its discretion implement such fix in a future update of the Software (i.e. an update release), but is under no obligation to do so on any schedule or at all. For clarification, feature requests are not covered under this Warranty. In the case of Software that is hosted by a third party, PDF further warrants to the service level commitments for software as a service (“SAAS”) set forth at http://www.pdf.com/support. The foregoing constitutes PDF’s sole and exclusive liability, and Licensee’s sole and exclusive remedy, in connection with any breach of the warranties granted by PDF hereunder. The foregoing will not apply:

 

 

(i)

to the extent that an Error is due to causes that are external to the Software or otherwise beyond PDF’s reasonable control, including, without limitation, natural disasters, fire, smoke, water, earthquakes, lightening, electrical power fluctuations or failures, failure of electronic or mechanical equipment or communications lines, telephone or other interconnect problems, general inoperability of the internet, or hardware or software not provided by PDF;

 

 

(ii)

if the Software has been neglected, misused, or otherwise used in a manner not in compliance with the Documentation or this Agreement;

 

 

(iii)

if the Software has been improperly installed (other than by PDF or a service provider engaged by PDF);

 

 

(iv)

if there has been a modification or attempted modification of the Software (other than by PDF or a service provider engaged by PDF);

 

 

(v)

if Licensee has refused or otherwise failed to implement corrections, updates, enhancements, new releases, or other modifications that PDF has provided or recommended; or

 

 

(vi)

in the case of Software that is hosted by a third party, in the event of a Force Majeure that negatively affects PDF’s (or a third party service provider’s) ability to provide access to, or use of, the hosted Software.

 

9. Limits. EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTY SET FORTH IN SECTION 8, PDF MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO THE LICENSED MATERIALS OR ANY SERVICES PROVIDED BY PDF (OR A SERVICE PROVIDER ENGAGED BY PDF) HEREUNDER, OR ANY OTHER ASPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, PDF EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, USAGE OR TRADE PRACTICE. PDF’s entire liability to Licensee for damages or other amounts arising out of or in connection with Licensed Materials and services provided by PDF (or a service provider engaged by PDF) hereunder, or any other aspect of this Agreement shall not exceed the license fees actually received by PDF from Licensee under the Order Form(s) directly connected to such damage (or, if no fees are paid to PDF, U.S. $1,000). IN NO EVENT SHALL PDF BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA OR LOST BUSINESS, EVEN IF PDF HAS BEEN ADVISED AS TO THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. The limitation of liability and disclaimer of warranties in this Section 9 apply regardless of the form in which an action (legal, equitable or otherwise) may be brought, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise. The limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, exclusivity of remedies and other limitations set forth in this Agreement are an essential element of the bargain between the Parties (without which PDF would not have entered into this Agreement) and will apply even if a remedy fails in its essential purpose. Licensee acknowledges that the fees paid under this Agreement reflect the allocation of risk set forth herein and PDF would not enter into this Agreement without this limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, and exclusivity of remedies.

 

For clarification, any recommendation provided by PDF regarding any Hardware or 3rd party software for the Software to operate as intended in the Documentation is purely recommendation based on PDF’s experience and typical usage of the Software. Licensee is responsible to make changes and / or make investment and improvement over time to maintain satisfactory performance of the Software based on Licensee’s usage, computing environment, and performance. PDF is not responsible for any such recommendation, including whether the Hardware or 3rd party software recommended will function as intended with the Software or that the Software will function as intended in the Documentation with the recommended Hardware and software.

 

From time to time, PDF may provide an Update to the Software that is generally availability to customers and PDF may provide guidance to Licensee on upcoming Updates. Such guidance, including but not limited to content (i.e. expected features and functionality) and schedule, shall not constitute any commitment or obligation on PDF, and PDF may change its release content or schedule from such guidance in its sole discretion. Licensee may provide recommendations and / or request Errors (e.g., bug fixes) and /or feature enhancements, and it is at PDF’s sole discretion whether to implement such Error Correction and/or enhancement and, if so, when to implement. Licensee shall have no right to withhold any payment due to PDF’s decisions regarding such guidance, release schedule, requests, or the quality of any Error Correction and/or enhancement. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no fees paid hereunder are for, or entitle Licensee to receive, PDF Services to speed up certain Error Corrections and /or feature enhancements specifically requested by the Licensee.

PDF Solution CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

 

When PDF provides an Update, it is Licensee’s responsibility to test such Update in Licensee’s environment to make sure that it works properly for the tasks Licensee conducts. PDF does not guarantee any Update will be Error free. In any event, no warranty hereunder applies to any Update. Updates are provided “AS IS”. No PDF Services for additional testing support is included in this Agreement (including under M&S fees) for PDF to conduct such test in Licensee’s environment.

 

At PDF’s sole discretion, PDF may choose to retire certain features, stop supporting certain versions (other than as committed in the M&S Services), and/or change the software architecture and / or operating system it works on, which may or may not be aligned with Licensee’s practice. Licensee shall not withhold any payment to PDF for previously purchased Software related to such changes.

 

Licensee only licenses the Software modules and/or features covered under an Order Form. For clarification, (i) certain PDF products require a database and certain hardware to operate as intended, about which Licensee has been advised, and, if not included on an Order Form then Licensee is responsible for providing such compatible database/hardware for utilization of the Software and PDF has no liability, and Licensee has no termination rights, for failure of the Software to operate as intended due to Licensee’s failure to acquire/provide such database or hardware; and, (ii) this SLA does not include any optional, separately priced features/modules or software product with substantially new or additional significant features that may be developed by PDF in the future and made generally available to its customers.

 

10. Indemnification. PDF shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Licensee, Licensee’s Affiliates, and their respective directors, employees and agents (collectively, “Indemnitees”), from and against any losses, liabilities, damages, claims or expenses resulting from any third party claim for intellectual property infringement brought against any Indemnitees in consequence of the exercise by Licensee or its Affiliates of the rights granted under this SLA (a “Claim”) if: (a) Licensee promptly notifies PDF in writing of the Claim; (b) gives the PDF sole authority, at the PDF’s sole expense, using counsel reasonably acceptable to Licensee, to direct and control the defense and any settlement and compromise negotiations; provided, however, that Licensee shall have the right to participate at PDF’s expense in any such settlement and compromise negotiations that would require any changes to the Software or terms of this SLA or that would require any action or restraint of action by the Other Party and that Other Party shall have the right to approve any settlement that would require any changes to the Software or terms of this SLA or that would require any action or restraint of action by Other Party (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld); and (c) Licensee provides PDF, at PDF’s expense, with such disclosure and assistance of Licensee as may be reasonably required to defend any such Claim. If PDF does not promptly undertake defense of any such Claim after notice of same from Licensee, Licensee shall be entitled but not required to undertake the defense of such Claim and shall have the right to direct and control the defense and any settlement and compromise negotiations concerning such claim with counsel selected by Licensee and that PDF shall have the right to approve any settlement (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld); all at PDF’s expense. For the avoidance of doubt, Licensee’s election to undertake or not to undertake such defense will not limit in any way PDF’s indemnification obligations hereunder. Licensee's failure to perform any obligations under this Section 10 will not relieve Licensor of its obligations under this Section 10 except to the extent that Licensor can demonstrate that it has been materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. PDF shall not be responsible for indemnification hereunder to the extent the claimed infringement arises out of or resulting from Software that has been used in a manner not in material compliance with the Documentation or this Agreement, improperly installed (other than by PDF or a service provider engaged by PDF or recommended by PDF), there has been a modification or attempted modification of the Software (other than by PDF or a service provider engaged by PDF or recommended by PDF), or if Licensee has refused or otherwise failed to implement Updates or other modifications that PDF has provided or recommended in writing. Without limiting the foregoing, if a Claim is asserted or appears likely or if Licensee’s use of any Software or any component thereof is enjoined or threatened to be enjoined, PDF shall, at PDF’s sole cost and expense, modify the allegedly infringing Software, procure any necessary license, or replace the Software with a non-infringing substitute or, if neither of the foregoing is possible notwithstanding PDF’s best efforts, then PDF shall refund to Licensee all fees paid under this Agreement for the allegedly infringing Software, less a pro-rata amount (the period of time compared to the total purchased license term of such Software time applicable license fees) for any use Licensee enjoyed prior to any such Claim. THIS SECTION 10 SETS FORTH LICENSEE’s EXCLUSIVE REMEDY, AND PDF’S EXCLUSIVE OBLIGATION AND LIABILITY, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY MISAPPROPRIATION OR INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SOFTWARE PROVIDED TO LICENSEE BY PDF HEREUNDER. PDF’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall not be subject to any limitation of liability provisions herein.

 

11. Duration; Term. This SLA enters into force on the Effective Date above and continues until (a) terminated by either Party upon fifteen (15) day advance written notice to the other Party delivered to the address/email set forth in the signature blocks below; (b) Licensee undergoes a Change of Control, in which case it terminates effective as of the date of the closing of such Change of Control, unless PDF consents in writing to the transfer of this Agreement and all then-valid Licenses hereunder to the surviving corporation; or (c) Licensee commits a breach of Sections 6 or 7, which is not cured within 2 days of written notice by PDF, in which case it terminates effective as of the second day following the date of notice by PDF. Upon any termination of this Agreement (i) by PDF for Licensee’s breach or Change of Control, the rights and obligations of the Parties and all then-valid Licenses under Order Forms shall terminate, or (ii) by either Party for any other reason, the rights and obligations of the Parties shall terminate but all then-valid Licenses under Order Forms shall continue; except in each case, that (X) Sections 6 - 11 herein as well as supporting definitions incorporated by reference shall survive such termination; and, (Y) Licensee’s liability and obligation to pay all fees or other amounts under all Order Forms will also survive such termination and be immediately due. Notwithstanding any license duration set forth in an Eval Software license file, either Party may terminate an Eval Software license, for any or no reason, upon written notice (email sufficient) to the other Party.

Advantest Cloud. The “Advantest Cloud” is the combination of two parts, one contributed by each of the Parties, as follows. The first part of the Advantest Cloud are “Advantest Customizations,” which are Advantest Technology (as such term is defined in the Development Agreement; Development of the Advantest Customizations shall be governed by SOW #2 of the Development Agreement), comprised of: (a) certain of Licensee’s proprietary applications (and included APIs) and any enhancement, modification, addition, add-on module, or other code meant to improve the functionality or usability of Licensee’s proprietary applications (“Advantest Improvements”) thereto that enable access to each application through the Exensio CloudSite and provide for interoperability with Exensio as agreed by the Parties for each such application, and (b) Licensee-specific content added to PDF’s proprietary database schema (e.g., new data tables, etc.). The second part of the Advantest Cloud is the “PDF Exensio Platform,” which is PDF Technology (as such term is defined in the Development Agreement), comprised of PDF’s Exensio Software (and included APIs) and generic database schema, templates/filter plans, and related scripts, and Improvements to each to enable interoperability with the Advantest Customizations.

 

3.

Committed Purchase; Initial CloudSite Configuration and Additional Items/Resources. In this Amendment, Licensee purchases from PDF, and PDF grants subject to Licensee’s payment of the applicable fees as set forth in Section 6 below, those certain licenses to Software and related Services set forth in the AC Quote and further described in SOW #1, SOW #2, ASC #1 and ASC #2 under the terms and conditions of the Agreement, as amended specific to such purchase as set forth herein. For the purposes of the licenses granted in this Amendment, (a) “Licensee” means Advantest America, Inc. and its Affiliates; and (b) “Authorized Users” means Licensee’s end customers’ personnel, including contractors, but excluding in any case contractors that are employed by a PDF Named Competitor (as defined below), which end customer has entered into an enforceable agreement with Licensee containing certain terms and conditions governing the access and use of PDF Software that have been mutually-agreed between PDF and Licensee (each such company, an “Authorized End Customer” and each such license agreement, a “EULA”). The Exensio Bundle in the AC Quote includes the specific Exensio Software, with the stated quantity of [***] and [***] for each, as applicable, initially configured as defined in the Configuration Table, none of which are [***]. In its discretion, from time to time during the Project Term, Licensee may add additional [***] or [***] to such included Exensio Software or expand the initial CloudSite configuration at the fees for each such item listed in the Price Table, which additional fees shall be paid by Licensee as set forth in Section 7 below. Without limiting PDF’s obligations in providing the ramp-up discussed in Section 6, the Price Table also includes the fees for additional DEX Sites and Apps Engineering Services resources, which Licensee may also, in its discretion, purchase from time to time during the Project Term, subject to PDF’s scheduling and resource constraints. If Licensee elects to purchase any such additional items or resources, then in each case, such additional items shall be documented in future PDF Quotes and SOWs, if applicable. As used herein, “PDF Named Competitors” means the following, [***]: [***].

KPI Targets. The Parties agree that while the combination of the two parts of the Advantest Cloud is the ultimate objective of the AC Project, Licensee will receive value from the Exensio CloudSite and Software before full realization of the Advantest Cloud and, as such, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the “Term” for the Software on the AC Quote will start on the date any such Software is first made available to Licensee, with payments beginning only after PDF meets the KPI Targets set forth in the Capability/Scalability Targets. The Capability/Scalability Targets are designed to demonstrate that the Exensio CloudSite and Software will support the Advantest Cloud vision. PDF will undertake the activities set forth in A1 Appendix F and demonstrate the achievement of each KPI Target to Licensee as met. The KPI Targets will each be deemed accepted by Licensee:

 

 

(x)

on the 14th business day (i.e., not a bank holiday in either California, USA or Germany) after PDF’s notice that it has met each such KPI Target (“Achievement Notice”), unless Licensee provides notice within 13 business days of the date of such Achievement Notice reasonably and in good faith disputing that the KPI Target was met; or

 

 

(y)

on the 31st day after PDF’s notice (“Default Notice”) that Licensee has failed at that time to fulfill the dependencies in Column B of the Target Achievement Activities Table on A1 Appendix F; provided that PDF may only provide a Default Notice if:

 

 

Licensee has failed to provide a dependency in Column B of the Target Achievement Activities Table on A1 Appendix F such that the overall schedule may be adversely impacted;

 

 

PDF has escalated the request for the dependency to be fulfilled to the project managers for each Party;

 

 

the dependency has not been remedied within ten (10) days after such escalation; and

 

 

PDF has thereafter provided notice to Licensee that PDF is unable to complete its activities due to Licensee’s failure to fulfill the dependency.

 

PDF will (i) provide documentation refuting any deficiencies that it believes were in fact met; and (ii) assign resources to remedy all valid deficiencies until such KPI Target is met and then redeliver an Achievement Notice to Licensee for such KPI Target. This process shall continue until all deficiencies have been remediated or deemed accepted pursuant to the foregoing (such date, “System Acceptance”). Notwithstanding Section 8 of the Agreement, the Warranty Period with respect to the Software purchased hereunder is revised to begin upon System Acceptance. For the avoidance of doubt, in addition to the PDF activities related to the KPI Targets, from August 1, 2020, through July 31, 2025 (the “Project Term”), the Parties will undertake additional development work toward the AC Project goal of the Advantest Cloud from time to time as agreed by the Parties under the Development Agreement.

 

5.

PDF CloudSite; Alternate Cloud Hosting. The Parties agree that PDF shall initially host the PDF Exensio Platform for Licensee during the Project Term and deploy/configure and maintain the PDF CloudSite for Licensee and for Authorized Users, except as set forth in this Section 5 and Section 14 below. Licensee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to convince Authorized End Customers to host their access to the Exensio Platform with PDF during the Project Term. At any time during the Project Term, the Parties agree that:

 

 

(a)

Licensee may install the licensed Exensio Software on [***] (as defined below), and to the extent such software is included in Licensee’s EULA with an Authorized End Customer, Licensee may install instances of Exensio Software for such Authorized End Customers [***];

 

In any of these cases, there is [***]; however, [***] of the Exensio BE (as defined below) or any Exensio product listed in the AC Quote are limited to [***] and Authorized Users and the number of such [***] and Authorized Users of all such [***] hosted instances counts toward the number of [***] in the AC Quote and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not decrease the total price in the AC Quote. PDF will work with Licensee to [***] additional [***] during the Project Term with resources and size similar to the Configuration Table, Exensio Bundle, and [***] count in the AC Quote (“Support”).

 

 

(b)

Licensee may request PDF to install Licensee’s proprietary applications in the PDF CloudSite that do not connect to, or utilize, Exensio in any manner;

 

Page 3 of 35
PDF Solution CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

PDF doc #8406 (continued)

 

In this case, the number of [***] of Licensee’s proprietary applications is not limited by the number of [***] in the AC Quote.

 

 

(c)

Licensee may request PDF to install Licensee’s proprietary applications in the PDF CloudSite that connect only to the data access APIs of Exensio (the “Exensio BE”) and not any APIs of any of the Exensio products listed in the AC Quote;

 

In this case, [***] of the Exensio BE are limited to [***] and Authorized Users and count toward the number of [***] in the AC Quote.

 

 

(d)

Licensee may request PDF to install Advantest Customizations in the PDF CloudSite that connect only to the APIs of the Exensio products listed in the AC Quote (the “Exensio FE”).

 

In this case, [***] of the Exensio FE are limited to [***] and Authorized Users but are not included in the AC Quote and shall only be authorized by the Parties on an Integrated Product-by-Integrated Product basis under the Reseller Agreement, with additional per [***] fees payable to the Selling Party in accordance therewith (as such terms are defined in the Reseller Agreement).

 

In the case of [***] in either of (a) or (b) above, the Parties shall mutually agree on a method to authorize, manage, count, and report to PDF such [***] access to the Exensio BE or any Exensio product listed in the AC Quote before any such access is granted by Licensee. All cloud resources (e.g., storage and data transfer) of CloudSites hosted by PDF, including back-ups requested by Licensee and additional cloud instances hosted by PDF for Authorized End Customers, if any, that are used in connection with (b), (c), or (d) above count toward the cloud resources specified in the Configuration Table and included in the total price in the AC Quote.

 

Without limiting any other provision hereunder, Licensee (including its Affiliates and [***]) and Authorized End Customers (including Authorized Users), and automated processes of each, may make use of the Licensed Materials, in accordance with the license grant and the foregoing requirements, and subject to all then applicable U.S. export and re-export laws, from any geographic location wherever situated to facilitate, enable, and support any and all interactions with, to, from, or between Licensee and its Affiliates and [***] and automated processes of either, by means of any website or any other technology, means, or methods now known or hereafter devised to connect thereto.

Approved DEX Sites and PDF Resources; Expected Ramp. The DEX Services will ramp over time at locations that are mutually-agreed and set forth on the Approved List (each, a “DEX Site”) [***] (as defined in ASC #2). Licensee may change the DEX Sites on the Approved List up to [***] in each [***] period, upon notice to PDF, at which new Approved Site PDF will install a DEX Node within [***] of [***]. Notwithstanding Section 3 of the Agreement, Licensee may re-host [***] at DEX Sites up to [***]; fees for re-hosting more times will be mutually agreed as needed. With respect to PDF resources to support the AC Project, PDF shall provide PDF Personnel (as defined below) for software development to achieve goals of the AC Project. For clarity, the software development services set forth in the below chart are governed by SOW #2 of the Development Agreement. “PDF Personnel” means PDF’s or Affiliates’ employees or agents of, or any contractors used in connection with any performance under this Agreement. The Parties’ expectation of total PDF Personnel needed for the AC Project (expressed in numbers of FTEs per quarter) and the projected work assignments are generally as follows:

Notes:

 

Capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein have the meanings given them in the Governing Contract or, if none is in effect, at https://www.pdf.com/definitions

 

Unless provided otherwise in the Governing Contract, the Services that PDF will provide if M&S is itemized above are defined at http://www.pdf.com/support. If not itemized above, M&S is not provided for Software identified as perpetual. M&S Services are included in Software identified as TBL.

 

If a start date for Software is stated above, then (a) the “Term” of Software identified as TBL starts on such date, unless first access to digitally download the Software executable and delivery of the first license files is later, in which case, the start date is the later date and continues for the stated Term; and, (b) the “Subscription Term” for Software identified as Cloud starts on such date, unless access to the CloudSite is first made available to Customer by PDF on a later date, in which case, the start date is the later date and continues for the stated Term. The “Term” of Software identified as perpetual begins upon delivery of the license files for such Software and continues unless terminated as provided in the Governing Contract.

 

Customer has no right to receive, and PDF shall not deliver to Customer, an executable for any Software identified as Cloud. Exensio® ALPS™ tool licenses include mapping and driver software for only the tool type(s) specified above. Additional mapping and driver software, e.g., for additional tool-types authorized by PDF, may be purchased separately from PDF.

 

Certain PDF Software may be delivered together with a dongle or GPIB interface card or other hardware (including, in some cases, servers), which, if included, remain PDF property and are loaned/licensed to Licensee only for use in connection with validly licensed PDF Software during the applicable term for such Software, unless identified as a pass-through, in which case, ownership of such hardware passes to Customer upon payment therefore. PDF passes through all manufacturer warranties and purchased support for such hardware and has no liability, and makes no warranty, for such hardware or related support. Upon PDF's request, all loaned/licensed hardware provided by PDF in connection with use of licensed Software shall be returned to PDF at the end of the License Term.

 

Customer acknowledges that certain PDF Software requires other PDF Software or third-party software or hardware to operate or function as intended in the Documentation and that Licensee’s data may not load into PDF Software without substantial engineering work; if such required additional software, hardware, or services is not itemized herein (for example, no right to access or use any Oracle® database or related modules is granted by PDF unless Embedded Oracle® is expressly itemized above), Customer acknowledges it is solely responsible for acquiring such necessary software, hardware, and/or services to use the PDF Software as intended in the Documentation and releases PDF from any liability therefor. Such items may usually be purchased separately from PDF.

 

The total fees set forth in the table above are a single-package fee and Customer's (or, if applicable Licensee’s paying agent’s) issuance and PDF’s acceptance of a purchase order for any item listed herein (regardless of total amount) that references this Quote constitutes Licensee's agreement and a binding contract for Customer to purchase and PDF to provide all items listed herein with additional purchase orders to come, if applicable, in accordance with the billing terms or schedule, if any, set forth above. All purchase orders are subject to PDF acceptance. The products/services and pricing in this quote are guaranteed only though the Pricing Expiration Date set forth above. However, at any time before the one year anniversary of the Quote Issue Date set forth above, PDF may in its discretion accept Customer’s (or, if applicable, Licensee's paying agent's) purchase order issued after such date, in which case this Quote is deemed valid through the date of such acceptance. The “Order Date” of this Quote is the date PDF accepts the first purchase order for any product or service offered hereon.

 

Unless otherwise agreed in a signed writing by the Parties prior to the Service-Period Expiration Date (as defined below), all Services listed above (for clarification, not including Hosted Management Services or any Software identified as Cloud) must be used (in the case of services to be scheduled by Customer, on a mutually-agreeable date) on or prior to the earlier to occur of the following (for each line item, a "Service-Period Expiration Date"):

 

 

1.

the latest “end date” set forth above of any Software identified as TBL or Cloud;

 

2.

the “end date” specified for each such Service line item above; or,

 

3.

if no end date is specified for a Service line item, the one year anniversary of the Order Date.

 

The total fees for Services quoted herein are due regardless of when (or in the case of Services to be scheduled by Customer, if) the services are used by Customer, unless in the case of Services to be scheduled by Customer, such delay is due solely to PDF's inability to accommodate Customer's request submitted at least 120 days prior to such Service-Period Expiration Date, in which case, the applicable Service-Period Expiration Date will be extended once by 120 days. Customer is not entitled to any refund of fees for Services that have not been used in accordance herewith.
