| reasonable diligence. 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 |

| POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL BROADCOM’S LIABILITY WHETHER IN |
| CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY |

| NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY. |
| |
| 7. MISCELLANEOUS |
| |
| 7.1. Export Regulations. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE SOFTWARE IS |
| SUBJECT TO UNITED STATES AND OTHER APPLICABLE EXPORT-RELATED LAWS AND |
| REGULATIONS AND THAT YOU MAY NOT EXPORT, RE-EXPORT OR TRANSFER THE SOFTWARE OR |

| WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, EXPORT, RE-EXPORT OR TRANSFER OF THE SOFTWARE |
| TO CUBA, IRAN, NORTH KOREA, SUDAN AND SYRIA IS PROHIBITED. |
| |
| 7.2 Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the |

| 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 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 to which this |
| Agreement relates that is not a competitor of Broadcom. |
| |
| 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. 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. |
| |
| 7.7. Entire Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the entire Agreement |
| between the parties and supersedes any and all prior proposals, agreements and |
| representations between them, whether written or oral concerning the Software. |
| This Agreement may be changed only by mutual agreement of the parties in |
| writing. |
