Licensee may terminate this Agreement at any time upon written notice to Broadcom and fulfillment of its obligations under Section 4.2 herein. 4.2. Effect Of Termination. Upon any termination of this Agreement, the rights and licenses granted to Licensee under this Agreement shall immediately terminate; provided, however, that sublicenses of the Software or Derivative Works in object code format, to the extent validly granted to end users pursuant to Section 2.1(ii) prior to termination of this Agreement, shall survive such termination subject to compliance BASLA v1.1 5/29/02 -2- with the obligations set forth herein. Upon termination, Licensee shall ship to Broadcom, within thirty (30) days, all tangible items in its possession or control which are proprietary to Broadcom; and Licensee shall destroy or return to Broadcom, at Broadcom’s option, all copies of the Software and Derivative Works (including, without limitation, Source Code) in its possession or control. 4.3. Survival. The provisions of Sections 1, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 5. CONFIDENTIALITY 5.1. Existing NDA (if Applicable). If Broadcom and Licensee already have put in place a non-disclosure agreement that would protect communications made under this Agreement (the “NDA”), then all such communications shall be subject to the terms and conditions of such NDA, which the parties acknowledge is in full force and effect. The parties agree that the Software and any accompanying documentation will be considered Confidential Information under the NDA. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the NDA, the terms of this Agreement will prevail. 5.2. Obligations if No NDA Exists. If no NDA exists, then the following terms shall apply: Licensee acknowledges and agrees that the Software, any documentation relating to the Software, and any other information (if such other information is identified as confidential or should be recognized as confidential under the circumstances) provided to Licensee by Broadcom hereunder (collectively, “Confidential Information”) constitute the confidential and proprietary information of Broadcom, and that Licensee’s protection thereof is an essential condition to Licensee’s use and possession of the Software. Licensee shall retain all Confidential Information in strict confidence and not disclose it to any third party or use it in any way except as permitted by this Agreement without Broadcom’s express written consent. Licensee will exercise at least the same amount of diligence in preserving the secrecy of the Confidential Information as it uses in preserving the secrecy of its own most valuable confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable diligence. The prohibitions contained in this Section 5.2 preclude dissemination of Confidential Information to Licensee’s subsidiaries, affiliates, contractors or subcontractors, except in the event of a permitted assignment pursuant to Section 7.1. Information shall not be considered Confidential Information if and to the extent that it: (i) was in the public domain at the time it was disclosed or has entered the public domain through no fault of Licensee; (ii) was known to Licensee, without restriction, at the time of disclosure as proven by the files of Licensee in existence at the time of disclosure; or (iii) becomes known to Licensee, without restriction, from a source other than Broadcom without breach of this Agreement by Licensee and otherwise not in violation of Broadcom’s rights. 5.3. Source Code Protection. Licensee shall not under any circumstances copy, duplicate or otherwise reproduce the Source Code in any manner except as provided herein. Licensee is granted the right to make one (1) archival or backup copy of the Source Code, which shall be marked as an archival copy and as the confidential and proprietary property of Broadcom to which access is restricted. Licensee agrees to inform all employees and contractors who are given access by Licensee to the Software, including the Source Code, the Object Code, or any accompanying documentation, that such materials are confidential and trade secrets of Broadcom licensed to Licensee as such. 6. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY EXCEPT FOR A BREACH BY LICENSEE OF SECTION 2 (LICENSE GRANT; OWNERSHIP) OR A BREACH BY EITHER PARTY OF SECTION 5 (CONFIDENTIALITY), IN NO EVENT SHALL LICENSEE, BROADCOM OR ANY OF BROADCOM’S LICENSORS HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, OR DATA, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY. 7. MISCELLANEOUS 7.1. Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, provided, however that Licensee may not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligation hereunder, directly or indirectly, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior BASLA v1.1 5/29/02 -3- written consent of Broadcom, and any such attempted assignment shall be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensee may assign this Agreement to a successor to all or substantially all of its business or assets that is not a competitor of Broadcom. 7.2. Notices. All notices between the parties shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given if personally delivered or sent by certified mail (return receipt requested), or telecopy, to the other party’s legal department at the address set forth in this Agreement, or such other address as is provided by notice as set forth herein. Notices shall be deemed effective upon receipt if personally delivered, three (3) business days after it was sent if by certified mail, or one (1) business day after it was sent if by telecopier. 7.3. Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of California without regard to any conflict-of-laws rules, and the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is hereby excluded. The sole jurisdiction and venue for actions related to the subject matter hereof shall be the state and federal courts located in the County of Orange, California, and both parties hereby consent to such jurisdiction and venue. 7.4. Severability. All terms and provisions of this Agreement shall, if possible, be construed in a manner which makes them valid, but in the event any term or provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal or unenforceable, the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected if the illegal or unenforceable provision does not materially affect the intent of this Agreement. If the illegal or unenforceable provision materially affects the intent of the parties to this Agreement, this Agreement shall become terminated. 7.5. Equitable Relief. Licensee hereby acknowledges that its breach of this Agreement would cause irreparable harm and significant injury to Broadcom that may be difficult to ascertain and that a remedy at law would be inadequate. Accordingly, Licensee agrees that Broadcom shall have the right to seek and obtain immediate injunctive relief to enforce obligations under the Agreement in addition to any other rights and remedies it may have. 7.6. Export Regulations. Licensee agrees and warrants that it shall comply, at its own expense, with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and all export laws, restrictions, national security controls and regulations of the United States and any applicable foreign agency or authority. Licensee shall not export or re-export, or authorize the export or re-export of the Software or any other product, technology, or information that Licensee obtains or learns hereunder, or any copy or direct product thereof, in violation of any of such laws, restrictions, or regulations or without any license or approval required thereunder. Any and all obligations of Broadcom to provide Software or any media in which the Software is contained shall be subject in all respects to such laws, restrictions, and regulations. 7.7. Waiver. The waiver of, or failure to enforce, any breach or default hereunder shall not constitute the waiver of any other or subsequent breach or default. 7.8. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, along with any associated Software Description Forms, sets forth the entire Agreement between the parties and supersedes any and all prior proposals, agreements and representations between them, whether written or oral. This Agreement may be changed only by mutual agreement of the parties in writing.
