     14.4 In the event that Transmeta determines to discontinue the Contract Product, Transmeta will provide AMD at least nine (9) months notice, unless such discontinuance results from safety issues, law or regulation, liability concerns, or actual or potential infringement issues. In such event, AMD may, prior to the end of the nine (9) month period, place, and Transmeta will accept, a non-cancelable, binding, non-reschedulable purchase order complying with the terms of this Agreement for the Contract Product proposed to be discontinued so long as requested delivery dates are consistent with required order lead times and delivery is to be no later than nine (9) months after the end of such notice period (“Delivery Period”).
     14.5 In the event Transmeta files a petition for bankruptcy or insolvency, has an involuntary petition filed against it not subsequently dismissed within a reasonable time, commences an action providing for relief under bankruptcy laws, files for the appointment of a receiver, or is adjudicated a bankrupt concern, subject to reasonable terms and conditions, including protection of Transmeta intellectual property, AMD may purchase Contract Product from a previously authorized Transmeta manufacturer or manufacture the Contract Product using its own resources.
     14.6 Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, all payments due the other Party at or before the time of termination or expiration of this Agreement shall be paid in due course to the demanding Party, all the terms and conditions of Sections 6, 9, 11, 13 and 16 shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement.

     15. FINANCIAL NEGOTIATION
     15.1 Promptly following the Effective Date, AMD and Transmeta will negotiate in good faith the terms and conditions of a written agreement by which AMD purchases from Transmeta equity, or debt convertible into equity, of Transmeta. If the parties agree upon such terms and conditions, they shall enter into such mutually agreed upon written agreement and perform their obligations thereunder.
     16. MISCELLANEOUS
     16.1 This Agreement supersedes all prior discussions and writings and constitutes the entire and only Agreement between the Parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof, and it may not be changed, altered, or amended except in writing signed by duly authorized representatives of the Parties.
     16.2 In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and those contained in any related purchase orders, acknowledgments, Exhibits hereto, or acceptances, the terms of this numbered Sections in the body of this Agreement shall control.
     16.3 The failure of either Party to enforce, at any time, or for any period of time, any provision of this Agreement, to exercise any election or option provided herein, or to require, at any time, performance of any provision hereof, shall not be construed to be a waiver of such provisions, nor in any way affect the validity of this Agreement or any part hereof, or the right of any Party thereafter to enforce any such provision.
     16.4 This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, as if entered into and performed entirely in California between California residents. The Parties agree that the UN Convention for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply. If any provision herein is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected or impaired thereby.
     16.5 Neither Party shall be liable in any manner for failure or delay upon fulfillment of all or part of this Agreement, directly or indirectly due to acts of God, governmental orders or restrictions, war, threat of war, warlike conditions, fire, hostilities, sanctions, mobilization, blockage, embargo, detention, revolution, riot, looting, strike, lockout, labor disturbances, or accident.
     16.6 Neither Party shall assign or otherwise dispose of this Agreement, or of any rights, duties, or obligations arising under this Agreement, without first obtaining the prior written approval of the other Party.
     16.7 The Parties shall comply with all applicable U.S. export laws and shall not export, re-export, resell, ship or divert any Contract Products or controlled technical information or software furnished by the other Party to any country for which the U.S. requires an export license or other governmental approval without first obtaining such license or approval.
     16.8 All captions and descriptive headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to be used in interpreting the obligations of the Parties under this Agreement.

     16.9 Representatives and personnel of each Party, during the time they are present on the premises of the other Party, shall be subject to all rules and regulations prevailing on such premises. Each Party shall be responsible for the payment of all compensation and expenses, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, of its respective representatives and personnel. None of the representatives or personnel of either Party shall be considered for any reason to be an employee of the other Party.
     16.10 Nothing contained herein, or done in pursuance of this Agreement, shall constitute the Parties as entering upon a joint venture or shall constitute either Party hereto the agent for the other Party for any purpose or in any sense whatsoever.
     16.11 AMD and Transmeta will attempt to settle any claim or controversy arising under this Agreement through consultation and negotiation in good faith and a spirit of mutual cooperation. The Parties agree that any disputes which arise out of or are based upon this Agreement shall be subject to mediation before any legal or administrative process may be initiated by either Party, except disputes relating to intellectual property which by their nature require immediate or extraordinary relief. There shall be a forty-five (45) day time limit on this mediation process, beginning from the initial request for mediation, after which legal remedies may be initiated by either Party if no resolution has been adopted in writing to both Parties satisfaction. The Parties agree to cooperate in good faith in the selection of a mediator (if the Parties decide a formal mediator is needed), and to share equally the costs of the mediator’s services. Each Party shall bear their own expenses associated with the mediation process. The use of any alternative dispute resolution procedure will not be construed under the doctrines of laches, waiver or estoppel to affect adversely the rights of either Party. And nothing in this paragraph will prevent either Party from resorting to judicial proceedings if: (a) good faith efforts to resolve the dispute under these procedures have been unsuccessful; or (b) interim relief from a court is necessary to prevent serious and irreparable injury to one Party or to others.
     16.12 The Agreement was negotiated in the spirit of mutual cooperation whereby no clause should be necessarily construed against any one Party based upon the finding that that Party provided all or most of the contractual language contained within that clause.
     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused their respective duly authorized representatives to sign this Agreement on the respective dates specified below.
