Supplier shall maintain an ample quantity of Material, work in process and finished good inventory to support the Customer forecast, including building sub-assemblies per Kanban Agreement or per forecasted demand. If Supplier builds system Product sub-assemblies to Customer forecasted demand, and such system Product sub-assembly is not consumed within [    ]* from the date Supplier places the sub-assembly into inventory at Supplier Facility (and such aged sub-assembly does not meet the definition of Excess or Obsolete Material), Customer agrees to either (i) provide a firm Product Purchase Order with a delivery date within [    ]* calendar days to consume such aged sub-assembly, or (ii) issue payment to Supplier for such aged sub-assembly inventory, provided that this inventory is netted against the demand and removed from the supply in the calculation prior to the Excess claim submittal per Section 5.0 of this Agreement.

 

10.2 Supplier may elect to tear down systems Product and restock the instruments, electro-mechanical sub-assemblies and Material, in the event that Customer reschedules or cancels the Purchase Order.

 

11.0 Indemnification; Limitation of Liability

 

11.1 Each party shall indemnify, defend with competent and experienced counsel and hold harmless the other party, its officers, directors and employees, from and against any and all damages, liabilities, actions, causes of action, suits, claims, demands, losses, penalties, costs and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and court costs) that the other party may incur, become responsible for or pay out to any third party as a result of death or bodily injury to any person, destruction or damage to any tangible property, to the extent caused by (a) any failure by the indemnifying party, its officers, employees or agents, to perform any of its obligations under the Master Agreement and this Amendment, (b) any negligent or willful acts, errors or

SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT (CONSIGNED EQUIPMENT)

This Agreement defines the license terms and conditions under which Teradyne, Inc. (“Customer”) grants user rights to selected software and the undersigned (“Supplier”) will use such selected software. These terms apply only to software owned or controlled by Customer that is delivered to Supplier by Customer and is listed on Schedule 1 attached hereto (“Software”).

In consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

1. Customer grants a license to Software, as outlined herein, effective when Software is delivered to Supplier and, if required, a license key to enable use of Software. The license grants Supplier the limited, non-exclusive and non-transferable right to use Software and related documentation only for their internal use. Software that operates on a test system or equipment is licensed for use only with the specific test system or equipment for which it is authorized by Customer, except temporary use on another test system or other equipment is permitted if due to malfunction of the identified test system or equipment. Unless otherwise specified by Customer, in associated purchase documents or license keys, the term of this license shall extend only for so long as Supplier is consigned the use of the test system or equipment. Unless otherwise specified in writing by Customer, the license of Software is not transferable or sublicenseable by Supplier or its consolidated subsidiaries to any other party.

2. Supplier’s rights in Software and documentation are user’s rights only, and all title and ownership rights in them remain with Teradyne (or third party supplier to Customer). Supplier acknowledges that the Software and related documentation contain trade secret and proprietary information of Customer, and agrees not to disclose it to any others, using the same degree of care as with its own materials of a similar nature, but in no event less than reasonable care. Supplier shall not modify, decompile, disassemble or otherwise reverse engineer Software. Supplier will not copy the Software or related documentation, except for archival or emergency backup purposes. Any such copy must contain the copyright or proprietary notice as furnished with the original. Supplier agrees to allow Customer to monitor compliance with these conditions in a manner that does not interfere with normal business operations. When additional licenses or license terms exist or are required for any third party material incorporated in or delivered with Software, the terms of that third party license will supercede any conflicting terms in this Agreement as it relates to the third party material.

3. IN NO EVENT, WHETHER AS A RESULT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, WARRANTY, OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHETHER OR NOT EITHER PARTY WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

4. Customer can terminate Supplier’s rights to use any specific item or items of Software for any material failure to perform Supplier’s obligations under this License with respect to that item or items of Software that is not remedied within thirty (30) days of written notice, or Supplier’s ceasing to do business or becoming bankrupt. If Customer terminates the license to such item or

 

27


CONFIDENTIAL   Execution Version

 

items of Software for such cause, Supplier agrees to return such item of Software and Documentation including any copies or partial copies thereof. Licenses to other items of Software not so terminated shall continue in full force and effect. In the case of Supplier’s ceasing to do business or becoming bankrupt, the Agreement is terminated including all licenses to specific items of Software and Supplier agrees to return all Software and Documentation.

5. Any change to this License Agreement must be in writing, signed by both parties. The laws of the State of California will govern interpretation of this License Agreement. Customer makes no grant of license rights to any third party software, source code, applications or open source software not delivered by Customer (hereinafter Third Party Software) necessary to use the Software on Supplier’s workstations or at its’ facilities. Supplier is responsible for securing all licenses for Third Party Software.

6. Supplier shall not export, re-export or release any specific item or items of Software, the source code for any specific item or items of Software, or any product incorporating any Software to a national of a country or to any country to which restrictions are applied from time to time by the U.S. Department of Commerce without an export license from the U.S. Government. This restriction shall survive the expiration or termination of this License Agreement.

7. To the best of Customer’s knowledge, after reasonable diligence, Customer represents that, as of the date of this License Agreement, the export of the Software to China does not require an individually validated export license from the U.S. Department of Commerce and that such export is not restricted or prohibited by the U.S. Department of Commerce or U.S. Government.

EXEMPT EMPLOYEE PROPRIETARY INFORMATION AGREEMENT

1. Maintaining Confidential Information

I agree, at all times during the term of my employment, and thereafter to hold in strictest confidence, and not to use, except for the benefit of the Company, or to divulge or disclose, directly or indirectly, to any person, corporation or other entity, without written authorization of the management of the Company, any trade secrets, confidential knowledge, data or proprietary information (collectively referred as ‘Confidential Information”) relating to products, processes, know-how, designs, formulas, development or experimental work, computer programs, data bases, other original work of authorship, customer lists, business plans, financial information or other subject matter pertaining to any business of the Company or any of its clients, consultants or licensees.

b. Former Employee Information. I agree that I will not, during my employment with the Company, improperly use or disclose any proprietary information or trade secrets of my former or concurrent employers or companies, if any, and that I will not bring onto the premises of the Company any unpublished document or any property belonging to my former or concurrent employers or companies, if any, unless consented to in writing by the said employers or companies.

c. Third Party Information. I recognize that the Company has received, and in the future will receive, from third parties their confidential or proprietary information, subject to a duty on the Company’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. I agree that I owe the Company and such third parties, during the term of my employment and thereafter, a duty to hold all such confidential or proprietary information in the strictest confidence and not to disclose them to any person, firm or corporation (except as necessary in carrying out my work for the Company consistent with the Company’s agreement with such third party) or to use it for the benefit of anyone or other than for the Company or such third party (consistent with the Company’s agreement with such third party) without the express written authorization of the management of the Company.

2. Retaining and Assigning Inventions and Original Works

a. Inventions and Original Works Retained by Me. I have attached hereto, as Exhibit A, a list describing all inventions, original works of authorship, developments, improvements, and trade secrets which were made by me prior to my employment with the Company, which belong to me, which relate to the Company’s proposed business and products, and which are not assigned to the Company, or, if no such list is attached, I represent that there are no such inventions.

b. Inventions and Original Works Assigned to the Company. I agree that I will promptly make full written disclosure to the Company, hold in trust for the sole right and benefit of the Company, and assign to the Company all my rights, title, and interest in and to, all inventions, discoveries, improvements, technology, trade secrets, computer programs, know-how, design, formulas,

I agree that my obligation to assist the Company to obtain letters patent and copyright registrations, as the case may be, covering inventions assigned hereunder to the Company shall continue beyond the termination of my employment, but the Company shall compensate me at a reasonable rate for time actually spent by me at the Company’s request on such assistance.

If the Company is unable, because of my mental or physical incapacity, or for any other reason, to secure my signature on any documents required to apply for or to pursue any application for any patents or copyright registrations, as the case may be, covering inventions assigned to the Company as above, I hereby irrevocably designate and appoint the Company, and its duly authorized officers and agents, as my agent and attorney in fact, to act for and in my behalf, to execute and file any such applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of patents or copyright registrations thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by me.

I hereby waive and quit claim to the Company any and all claims, of any nature whatsoever, which I now, or may hereafter, have for infringement of any patents or copyrights resulting from any such application for patents or copyright registrations assigned hereunder to the Company.

3. Conflicting Employment. I agree that, during the term or my employment with the Company, I will not engage in any other employment, occupation, consulting or other business activity directly related to the business in which the Company is now involved or becomes involved during the term of my employment, nor will I engage in any other activities that conflict with my obligations to the Company.

4. Returning Company Documents. I agree that, at the time of leaving the employ of the Company, I will deliver to the Company (and will not keep in my possession or deliver to anyone else) any and all devices, records, data, notes, reports, proposals, lists, correspondence, specifications, drawings, blueprints, sketches, materials, equipment, other documents or property, or reproductions of any aforementioned items belonging to the Company, its successors or assigns. In the event of termination of my employment, I agree to sign and deliver the “Termination Certification” attached hereto as Exhibit B.

5. Representations. I agree to execute any proper oath or verify any proper document required to carry out the terms of this Agreement. I represent that my performance of all the terms of this Agreement will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information acquired by me in confidence in trust prior to my employment by the Company. I have not entered into and I agree that I will not enter into, any oral or written agreement in conflict with any of the provisions of this Agreement.

EXAMPLE FORM OF FTC ENTERPRISE SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT

 

Teradyne Software License Agreement

TSL No.4250.1

This Agreement defines the license terms and conditions under which Teradyne, Inc. (“Customer”) grants user rights to selected software and how Solectron Corporation (“Supplier”) will use such selected software. These terms apply only to software owned or controlled by Customer that is delivered to Supplier by Customer as such may be updated from time to time (“Software”).

In consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

1. Customer grants a license to Software, as outlined herein, effective when Software is delivered to Supplier and, if required, a license key to enable use of Software. The license grants Supplier and its consolidated subsidiaries the limited, non-exclusive and non-transferable right to use Software and related documentation only for final configuration and test of Customer hardware systems. Unless otherwise specified by Customer, in associated master contracts, the term of this license shall extend only for so long as Supplier is performing final test and configuration for Customer. Unless otherwise specified in writing by Customer, the license of Software is not transferable or sublicenseable by Supplier or its consolidated subsidiaries to any other party.

2. Supplier’s rights in Software and documentation are user’s rights only, and all title and ownership rights in them remain with Customer (or third party supplier to Customer). Supplier acknowledges that the Software and related documentation contain trade secret and proprietary information of Customer, and agrees not to disclose it to any others, using the same degree of care as with its own materials of a similar nature, but in no event less than reasonable care. Supplier shall not modify, decompile, disassemble or otherwise reverse engineer Software. Supplier may copy the Software or related documentation in order to properly perform any final test and configuration of Customer hardware systems. Any such copy, however, must contain the copyright or proprietary notice as furnished with the original. Supplier agrees to allow Customer to monitor compliance with these conditions in a manner that does not interfere with normal business operations.

3. IN NO EVENT WHETHER AS A RESULT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, WARRANTY, OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHETHER OR NOT EITHER PARTY WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE.

4. Customer can terminate Supplier’s rights to use any specific item or items of Software for any material failure to perform Supplier’s obligations under this License with respect to that item or items of Software that is not remedied within thirty (30) days of written notice, or Supplier’s ceasing to do business or becoming bankrupt. If Customer terminates the license to such item or items of Software for such cause, Supplier agrees to return such item of Software and Documentation including any copies or partial copies thereof. Licenses to other items of Software not so terminated shall continue in full force and effect. In the case of Supplier’s ceasing to do business or becoming bankrupt, the Agreement is terminated including all licenses to specific items of Software. Supplier agrees to return all Software and Documentation.

5. Any change to this License Agreement must be in writing, signed by both parties. The laws of the State of California will govern interpretation of this License Agreement.

6. Supplier shall not export, re-export or release any specific item or items of Software, the source code for any specific item or items of Software, or any product incorporating any Software to a national of a country or to any country to which restrictions are applied from time to time by the U.S. Department of Commerce without an export license from the US Government. This restriction shall survive the expiration or termination of this License Agreement.

7. To the best of Customer’s knowledge, after reasonable diligence, Customer represents that, as of the date of this License Agreement, the export of the Software to China does not require an individually validated export license from the U.S. Department of Commerce and that such export is not restricted or prohibited by the U.S. Department of Commerce or U.S. Government.
