Restrictions on Have Designed or
Manufactured Rights . Toshiba acknowledges that any
exercise of its “Have Designed or Manufactured” rights
under Section 2.1 is expressly contingent upon Toshiba
entering into a written agreement with its contract designer(s) or
manufacturer(s) for the design or manufacture of LongRun2 Products
(a “ Contract Manufacturing Agreement ”).
Each Contract Manufacturing Agreement that Toshiba enters into
shall contain provisions that protect Transmeta’s
Intellectual Property Rights in and to the Transmeta Technology,
Transmeta Technology Deliverables and Transmeta Confidential
Information to at least the same extent as the terms and conditions
of this Agreement. Toshiba will use its commercially reasonable
efforts to enforce each such Contract Manufacturing Agreement with
at least the same degree of diligence used by Toshiba to enforce
similar agreements for its own products. Toshiba will promptly
notify Transmeta in writing of any breach of any such Contract
Manufacturing Agreement by a Toshiba contract designer or
manufacturer relating to the Transmeta Technology, Transmeta
Technology Deliverables or Transmeta Confidential Information of
which Toshiba becomes aware. Subject to Section 11, Toshiba
will be liable for any and all losses or damages of any kind
suffered or incurred by Transmeta arising out of or relating to any
such breach.

contract designer or manufacturer to design, manufacture, use,
offer to sale, sell, or import a LongRun2 Product for or on behalf
of any party other than Toshiba or a sublicensed Toshiba
Subsidiary, as applicable.

|
Limited Rights
. Toshiba’s rights
in the Transmeta Technology, Transmeta Technology Deliverables and
Transmeta Confidential Information will be limited to those
expressly granted in this Agreement. Transmeta reserves all rights
in and to the Transmeta Technology, Transmeta Technology
Deliverables and Transmeta Confidential Information not expressly
granted to Toshiba hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, Toshiba
acknowledges and agrees that it may not use, reproduce Transmeta
Technology Deliverables or Transmeta Confidential Information, or
manufacture (or Have Designed or Manufactured), offer for sale,
sell, export or import any LongRun2 Products, except as expressly
authorized in this Agreement.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(d)
|
|
Use of Toshiba
Improvements. For the avoidance of doubt, Toshiba
owns all right, title, and interest in and to the Toshiba

|
2.5
|
|
Royalties . For each LongRun2 Product
manufactured by or for Toshiba or sublicensed Toshiba Subsidiaries
that is based on, manufactured utilizing, embodies, implements,
incorporates or practices any Transmeta Specific Technology,
Toshiba will pay Transmeta the non-refundable royalties calculated
in accordance with the royalty schedule set forth in
Exhibit E . Royalties shall accrue upon the date of
completion of sale of each of such LongRun2 Product. Within [* * *]
after: (i) the end of each calendar quarter during the term of
this Agreement in which the royalty accrues and (ii) the
termination of this Agreement, Toshiba shall submit to Transmeta
the payment of royalties due as shown in the Royalty Report (as
defined in Section 5.2 below). Both parties acknowledge that
any semiconductor device, which is not based on, is not
manufactured utilizing, does not embody, implement, incorporate or
practice Transmeta Specific Technology, shall not be subject to
royalty payment hereunder. If dispute arises over whether any
technologies used by Toshiba include Transmeta Specific Technology
or not, both parties shall discuss and solve the dispute in good
faith. For the avoidance of doubt, no royalty shall be payable with
respect to a specific LongRun2 Product if Toshiba can demonstrate
to Transmeta’s reasonable satisfaction that the Transmeta
Specific Technology embodied in such product is not functional and
cannot be removed without Toshiba’s expenditure of undue
expense.

infringement or otherwise assert rights in any of their Patents in
or to their improvements equivalent to Toshiba Improvements against
