C11. Unlicensed Sales by Third Party: Except as expressly provided herein, neither Party shall sell any Products bearing the other Party's Trademarks outside the Territory in the case of Fuji Xerox or inside the Territory in the case of Xerox.

Fuji Xerox agrees to cooperate with Xerox in order to enable such inspection to be conducted. In the event such inspection discloses any material failure by Fuji Xerox to comply with the obligations set forth in this Part C, Fuji Xerox shall immediately remedy such non-compliance. The failure of Fuji Xerox to do so within ninety (90) days or such other time as the Parties may mutually agree in writing shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement, and particularly Part C hereof. C14. Enforcement of Xerox Trademarks in the Territory: In the event Fuji Xerox learns of any infringement, threatened infringement or passing-off of Xerox Trademarks in the Territory or that any third party alleges or claims that any Xerox Trademark is liable to cause deception or confusion to the 31 public in the Territory, or is liable to dilute or infringe any right in the Territory, Fuji Xerox shall forthwith notify Xerox and Fuji Xerox and Xerox shall agree to cooperate in addressing said issue. PART D - PRODUCT PROVISIONS --------------------------- D1. Prices and Terms Applicable to Supply Products; Volume Building: (a) [***], it is anticipated that one Party may, from time to time, agree to purchase or license Products and parts and components thereof from the other Party. The prices to be paid for such Products will be mutually agreed between the Parties. [***]. For the purpose of this Part D, Products shall specifically exclude any DPA commodity item which does not include or embody any intellectual property of the Parties and which the non-purchasing Party does not manufacture (including have made) and sell. Subject to Section E33, the Parties agree that they may, by mutual agreement, adopt other terms and conditions governing specific transactions and/or markets or other segments and such terms, once agreed in writing, shall take precedence over this Part D to the extent there is a conflict or discrepancy between them. (b) [***] (c) [***] (d) With respect to volume building in the product space outside the Territory, commonly known as Segments 1 and 2 (as understood on the date of this Agreement), the Parties acknowledge the Charter of Xerox International Partners (XIP), a California general partnership and the 1991 General Partnership Agreement relating to XIP, as amended from time to time as its governing framework. The Parties further acknowledge that realization of volume building in the product space commonly known as Segments 1 32 and 2 outside the Territory may from time to time require separate agreement between the Parties. D2. Manufacturing License Fee: If either Party manufactures any Product (other than Consumables, where Consumables are toner, fuser, ink or photoreceptor, or constituent parts thereof, including Customer Replaceable Unit ("CRU") thereof) which the Parties agree employs a significant design of the other Party, the manufacturing Party shall pay an agreed compensation (if any) to the other Party in the form of a manufacturing license fee ("MLF") or as otherwise may be agreed from time to time; provided, however, there shall be no compensation for the use of Technical Information, unless such Technical Information is a significant design of the other Party. In accordance with Section B14 of the Agreement, under no circumstances will the prompt and full disclosure of Technical Information be interrupted. D3. Software License Fee: If either Party elects to utilize, sublicense or distribute Software of the other Party in a Product, a reasonable Software License Fee ("SLF") or other form of mutually agreed compensation shall be negotiated with, and paid to, the Party from whom such Software was acquired. D4. Purchases from Third Party Vendors: (a) The purchase by one Party of a Product manufactured by a third party vendor in the territory of the other Party will be governed by the conditions described in this Part D. Nothing in this Part D shall be construed as altering the obligations of the Parties with reference to the Joint Enterprise Contract ("the 2001 JEC") as described in Section E28 of this Agreement. (b) Any time a buying Party seeks to purchase a Product from a supplier in the other Party's territory, the buying Party shall first enter into discussions with the other Party to determine whether the other Party is capable of 33 supplying the Product to be purchased. Thus, for sourcing Product in each other's territory, each Party shall be deemed to be the "Preferred Supplier" of the other. If the buying Party determines that the other Party is capable of fulfilling its requirements, the buying Party shall proceed to negotiate in good faith terms and conditions for the purchase of the desired Product from the other Party. If however the buying Party determines in its sole discretion that the other Party is not yet capable of supplying the desired Product within reasonably required quality, cost and delivery targets, the buying Party shall so inform the other Party and may thereupon enter into discussions with alternative, third party vendors. In such event, the buying Party agrees to continue consultations with the other Party concerning: the strategic implications of the purchase, such as advice/concern expressed by the other Party; the possibility of the other Party supplying the desired Product in the future; or the possibility of the other Party sourcing the same Product from such alternative third party vendor for the other Party's own use. The buying Party may invite the other Party to join in discussions with potential suppliers but there is no requirement that the buying Party does so. (c) Once a decision has been made to purchase a Product from a third party vendor in the other Party's territory, the following conditions will apply: (i) If no technology of either Party is to be transferred or licensed to the third party vendor, the buying Party is not required to seek or obtain approval from the other Party. No compensation shall be paid by the buying Party to the other Party for any purchases the buying Party makes from third party vendors in the other Party's territory. (ii) If the Xerographic technology of the buying Party is to be transferred or licensed to the third party vendor in the other Party's territory, then: 34 (1) If the buying Party agrees to permit the third party vendor to also sell a Product incorporating the Xerographic technology in the other Party's territory, the other Party's approval shall be required before such purchases can be made in the other Party's territory. Compensation shall be provided by the buying Party to the other Party for such sales the third party vendor makes in the other Party's territory. (2) If no sales by the third party vendor in the other Party's territory are contemplated, the buying Party shall advise and consult with the other Party and seek approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. No compensation will be paid by the buying Party to the other Party for such purchases the buying Party makes from third party vendors in the other Party's territory. (iii) If the non-Xerographic technology of the buying Party is to be transferred or licensed to a third party vendor in the other Party's territory, then the buying Party is not required to seek or obtain approval from the other Party. No compensation shall be paid by the buying Party for any purchases the buying Party makes from third party vendors in the other Party's territory. (iv) If a buying Party purchases a Product from a third party vendor in the other Party's territory and transfers or licenses to such third party vendor either Xerographic or non-Xerographic technology of the other Party, the following rules will govern: (1) If the third party vendor will be free to sell the Product in the other Party's territory, the buying Party shall obtain prior approval from the other Party. Compensation shall be provided by the buying Party to the other Party based upon the reasonable impact upon the other Party's marketing activity in its territory. 35 (2) If the third party vendor is not free to sell the Product in the other Party's territory, the buying Party will consult with and seek approval of the purchases from the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Compensation shall be provided by the buying Party to the other Party based upon a reasonable projection of the licensing value of that technology outside the other Party's territory with respect to contemplated sales of the Product by the third party vendor. No compensation shall be paid by the buying Party for its own sales in its own territory (v) In the above cases, the other Party may also seek to acquire the same Product from the third party vendor and both Parties are encouraged to coordinate their purchasing activities so as to achieve the most favorable conditions of purchase for the Parties. (vi) Where the approval of a Party is required under this Section D4, such approval or denial of approval shall be given within thirty (30) days from the request for same. In the event a Party fails to grant or deny such approval within such period, approval shall be deemed to have been given by such Party. (vii) Subject to Section E33, the Parties may agree to a simplified notification or blanket notification process to expedite procurement of items, including whole Products, in each other's territories. (viii) For purposes of clarification, in the event a vendor sells, leases or otherwise disposes of a Product containing the design or Technical Information of the other Party in the other Party's territory, there shall be a single payment which takes into account all applicable 36 fees under this Part D (including, but not limited to, those compensation items set forth in Sections D2 and D3.) D5. Factors To Be Considered When Compensation Payable: The following factors are considered to be relevant elements to take into consideration, in accordance with understandings described above, in determining total compensation levels to be paid by a buying Party to the other Party where negotiated compensation is called for pursuant to Section D4: the projected impact upon the marketing activity of the other Party in whose territory the third party vendor's sales are to be made; the total amount of such sales and the proportional usage of each Party's technology in the Product to be sold; the amount of royalties either Party may be receiving from a third party vendor for the transferred or licensed technology, or the licensing value of technology; and the value of grant backs or cross licenses with third party vendors related to the transferred or licensed technology. In the above statement, technology licensed to a third party vendor shall be used for sourcing purpose only and technology means Patents, drawings, technical support and know-how. All references to compensation as described herein refer solely to compensation in Section D4. D6. Vendor Access Compensation: Compensation, if any, for access to vendors in the other Party's territory will be negotiated separately. D7. Graphic Representation of Rights and Responsibilities of Part D: Attached hereto as Annex D-1 to this Agreement is a summarized graphic representation of the relevant rights and responsibilities of the Parties arising from this Part D. In the event of any discrepancy or disagreement between such graphic representation and the written terms of this Part D, the text of this Part D shall govern and control. 37 D8. Product Liability: (a) For purposes of this Section, the term "Party" may be construed to mean and include a Subsidiary of a Party, if appropriate to the context. Further, this Section D8 shall not apply to cases where infringement of any Patent, Copyright or other intellectual property right is involved, that are covered by the Section D9 below. (b) Each Party shall bear responsibility for its own conduct with respect to any claims, suits, causes of action or proceedings brought against it, the other Party, the other Party's Subsidiaries and/or their respective officers, directors, employees or representatives by third parties resulting from or caused by the defective or allegedly defective design, manufacture, storage, use, sale, lease or transportation of the Product and each Party shall indemnify, defend and hold the other Party, together with its and its Subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees and representatives harmless from and against any judgment awarded by a tribunal of competent jurisdiction as well as reimbursing the indemnitees for reasonable court costs and attorneys fees incurred by any of them arising from any such third party suit, claim, cause of action or proceeding. Provided, however, and notwithstanding any other term or condition contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the maximum liability of the indemnifying Party under the foregoing indemnity shall be [***] ($[***]) dollars (USD) per occurrence and [***] ($[***]) dollars (USD) in the aggregate of occurrences. (c) A Party seeking to market a Product designed or manufactured by the other Party, shall advise the other Party of any (i) applicable product safety standards, (ii) warning labels, (iii) legal requirements known to the Party seeking to market the Product, the compliance with which is necessary for the Products to be marketed in such Party's territory or (iv) required content of manuals deemed necessary in its marketplace so as 38 to enable the designing/manufacturing Party to comply with or incorporate these requirements. (d) A Party seeking to market a Product may provide to the designing/manufacturing Party specific instructions in the design of components, parts, or of the Product itself. (e) If the designing Party has incorporated all of the product safety standards, warning label requirements, manual content requirements and complied with the legal requirements described above; or if the designing Party has followed the specific instructions, the Party seeking to market the Product shall bear full responsibility for, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the designing or manufacturing Party, the designing or manufacturing Party's Subsidiaries and their respective officers, directors, employees and representatives from and against any judgment awarded by a tribunal of competent jurisdiction as well as reimbursing such indemnitees for reasonable court costs and attorneys fees arising from any third party suit, claim, cause of action or proceeding relating to any defect brought about by the designing Party's compliance with the requirements or instructions given to it by the Party seeking to market the Product in accordance the above. Provided, however, the maximum liability of the Party seeking to market the Product under the foregoing indemnity shall be [***] ($[***]) dollars (USD) per occurrence and [***] ($[***]) dollars (USD) in the aggregate of occurrences. (f) Subject to a maximum liability of [***] ($[***]) dollars (USD) per occurrence and [***] ($[***]) dollars (USD) in the aggregate of occurrences, notwithstanding the source of technology embodied in a Product, if a defect is found in a product design or manufacture, the Party having responsibility for the Product design or manufacture which is 39 found to be defective or the cause of liability shall bear full responsibility for such defect (including the repair or modification of Product in inventory of the other Party or its resellers or installed at end-user locations or effecting any other necessary remedial action) and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other Party, the other Party's Subsidiaries and their respective officers, directors, employees and representatives from and against any judgment awarded by a tribunal of competent jurisdiction as well as reimbursing such indemnitees for reasonable court costs and attorneys fees such indemnitees incurred arising from any third party suit, claim, cause of action or proceeding relating to such defect. D9. Infringement of Intellectual Property Rights Held by Others: (a) The Parties agree that each program agreement shall include provisions for intellectual property indemnification which shall be subject to the following principles. Subject to paragraph (b) of this Section, each Party shall, at its expense, defend and indemnify the other Party and its Subsidiaries, and in the case of Fuji Xerox, the Fuji Xerox JV OPCOs, from and against any suit, claim or proceeding brought against the other Party by a third party alleging infringement in any country of any Patent, Copyright or other intellectual property right as a result of the purchase or other acquisition by the other Party of any Product of such Party, provided such Party is promptly notified, given assistance required, and permitted to direct the defense. Further, each Party shall pay any damages and costs awarded against the other Party or its Subsidiaries in such suit, claim or proceeding, but such Party shall have no liability for settlements or costs incurred without its consent. To avoid infringement, even if not alleged, such Party may, at its option and at no charge to the other Party, obtain a license, modify or substitute an equivalent of the allegedly infringing Product, provided that any modification shall not affect form, fit or function, and any substitute equivalent shall exhibit the same form, fit and function. 40 (b) A Party shall not be liable to the other Party for alleged infringement of Patents, Copyrights or other intellectual property rights, except for as provided in Section C9, by any of such Party's Products resulting from: (i) designs or components incorporated into such Product at the request of the other Party and which would not otherwise have been incorporated by such Party, or (ii) the use, marketing or distribution of such Product by the other Party in combination with products not marketed or supplied by such Party. In either of such events, the other Party shall defend and indemnify such Party in a manner fully equivalent to the obligations set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section. (c) In developing the program agreement indemnification provisions described above, the Parties may take into account, as the case may arise, circumstances including, but not limited to: late acceptance of the Product, disagreement over indemnity risk, local law, or other factors affecting the indemnity being undertaken by a Party. D10. Restrictions on Use/Distribution of Third Party Software: (a) A Party's right to sublicense any Software with respect to which its right to use and distribute is granted under this Agreement by the other Party shall be exercisable only in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the respective original license agreement between the sublicensing Party and the original licensor/third party. (b) The sublicensing Party shall use in connection with its efforts to sublicense the Software a written sublicense agreement which contains terms required by this Agreement or (and only to the extent the licensing Party notifies the sublicensed Party in writing of such requirements in a timely manner) terms required by the original licensor/third party to be contained in such sublicense. 41 (c) The licensed Party shall consult with the licensing Party concerning the terms to be contained in the licensed Party's sublicense agreements applicable to such Software. D11. U.S. Trade Agreements Act of 1979: Fuji Xerox acknowledges that under the U.S. Trade Agreements Act of 1979 (the "Trade Agreements Act ") the U.S Government is barred, except under limited circumstances, from procuring products manufactured in countries that are not signatories to the World Trade Organization's Agreement on Government Procurement. Fuji Xerox also acknowledges that procurement by the U.S Government represents a substantial and vitally important segment of overall potential U.S. demand for Marking Products. Fuji Xerox agrees that any products that it manufactures or has manufactured and that are sold to Xerox under any Product Acquisition Agreement ("PAA") shall be "eligible products" within the meaning of 19 U.S.C. ss.2518(4), 19 C.F.R. ss. 177.22, and 41 C.F.R. ss.25.003 (or successor provisions) that originate in a designated country within the meaning of 48 C.F.R. ss. 25.003 (or successor provision). In addition, Fuji Xerox shall apprise Xerox in detail of those activities which Fuji Xerox believes will enable Fuji Xerox Products sold to Xerox under a PAA to be "substantially transformed" (as that term is used in the Trade Agreements Act and implementing regulations) so as not to restrict the procurement thereof by the U.S. Government under the Trade Agreements Act as early as is reasonably practicable in the manufacturing planning process but in any event substantially prior to the date when such activities are scheduled to commence. D12. Advice of Claims: Xerox and Fuji Xerox shall promptly advise the other Party whenever it shall become apprised of any claim asserted by any third party against either Party hereto which is of a nature specified in Section D8 or Section D9. Further, either Party shall have the right, with the consent of the other Party, to 42 assist in the conduct of any legal proceedings brought by or against the other Party which are of a nature specified in Section D8 or Section D9 through counsel of its own choosing and at its own expense.

Confidentiality: Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Agreement, all Technical Information or other confidential information furnished or disclosed by either Party ("Discloser") in writing shall remain the property of Discloser and shall be deemed the confidential information of Discloser. Such information shall, to the extent practicable, be marked with an appropriate proprietary legend, or identified as proprietary within a reasonable time after disclosure in order to be treated as confidential information that is subject to the terms of this Section. Information exchanged prior to the Effective Date that is not marked "Confidential", "Proprietary" or "Private" or words of similar import shall be deemed to be confidential information for the purposes hereof if under the circumstances prevailing at the time of disclosure the Party receiving such information reasonably should have understood that it was intended by Discloser to be treated as confidential information.

Such information may be transferred to Recipient's vendors, suppliers or customers only to the extent that the Recipient is licensed to such information under the terms of the Agreement and may be transferred only for purposes so licensed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the provisions of Part D hereof, Xerox and Fuji Xerox agree that either Party may make disclosures on a confidential basis to sublicensees, vendors, and distributors or other resellers, to the extent reasonably necessary to permit such entities to perform their functions as such, and to other third parties as expressly agreed in writing by the other Party. Any transferee of such information by the Recipient shall be required to maintain the confidentiality of such information to an equivalent standard as the Discloser's and except as expressly provided above such transfer must be authorized in writing by Discloser which authorization may be withheld for any reason. 47 Recipient will promptly notify Discloser upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the confidential information of Discloser. Such obligation to keep information confidential shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement. E10. Exclusions to Confidentiality: Recipient shall not be bound by the confidentiality obligations of the above if: (a) in the case of information first exchanged after the Effective Date, the information was not Technical Information and was not specifically designated in writing as confidential or proprietary at the time of the disclosure or, if the disclosure was orally made, it had not been initially identified as being confidential at such time; (b) the information was in the public domain at the time of the disclosure; (c) the information becomes publicly available through no fault of Recipient; (d) the information was in Recipient's possession, free of any obligation of confidence, at the time of receipt of the information; (e) the information becomes available on an unrestricted basis to a third party from Discloser; (f) the information was developed by employees or agents of Recipient (not while serving as employees, or contractors or consultants to Discloser) independently of and without reference to the information disclosed in confidence, as documented by Recipient's contemporaneous written records; and (g) to the extent (i) Recipient is obligated to produce the information under court or government action, after affording Discloser prompt notice, to the extent feasible, to enable it to contest such disclosure or (ii) with 48 respect solely to non-Technical Information, that the Recipient is obligated to disclose such information to any parent entity under applicable corporate governance laws and regulations.
