Monthly Base Subrent shall be payable without notice or demand and without any deduction, offset, or abatement, in lawful money of the United States of America.

B.    Additional Rent. All monies other than Monthly Base Subrent required to be paid by Sublessee under this Sublease, including, without limitation, (i) fifty percent (50%) of Operating Expenses (as defined in Section 3.2 of the Master Lease) actually due and payable by Sublessor under Section 3.2 of the Master Lease, and (ii) fifty percent (50%) of utility charges with respect to utilities serving the Master Premises (including the Subpremises), and (iii) fifty percent (50%) of any building/premises-related maintenance expenses (not otherwise included in Operating Expenses) incurred by Sublessor pursuant to the Master Lease to the extent such expenses are incurred with respect to the Subpremises as well as the balance of the Master Premises (e.g. building maintenance contract, fire alarm system maintenance contract if continued under one contract serving the entire building, and the like), and (iv) fifty percent (50%) (unless otherwise specified) of the costs incurred by Sublessor for the Shared Services described in Section 5 hereof (but shall not be deemed to include rent payable under the Master Lease with respect to any such portions of the Avago Premises) shall be deemed additional rent (“Additional Subrent”) and shall be payable within fifteen (15) days after receiving an invoice from Sublessor. Sublessee and Sublessor agree, as a material part of the consideration given by Sublessee to Sublessor for this Sublease, that Sublessee shall pay all costs, expenses, taxes, insurance, maintenance and other charges of every kind and nature arising in connection with the Subpremises under the Master Lease with respect to the Subterm, such that Sublessor shall receive, as net consideration for this Sublease, full reimbursement thereof. Monthly Base Subrent and Additional Rent hereinafter collectively shall be referred to as “Subrent”.

Sublessor shall, promptly upon receipt, deliver to Sublessee copies of all communications pertaining to the Subpremises received by Sublessor from the Master Lessor, including without limitation all notices and backup detail of Operating Expenses and any other

 

2


charges, it being understood, however, that in no event will Sublessor be deemed in default of this Sublease if it inadvertently fails to provide such communications.

5.    Shared Services. So long as Sublessor continues to utilize such equipment, occupies and conducts business in the Avago Premises or procures such services (collectively the “Shared Services”), as applicable, and Sublessee is not in Default hereof, subject to Sublessee’s reimbursement of Sublessor as provided herein as Additional Rent, Sublessor shall provide the following Shared Services to Sublessee during the Subterm:

(a)    Use of the existing UPS and site generator located in the Avago Premises to feed backup power to Subtenant’s Main Distribution Frame (“MDF”) which shall house Subtenant’s network equipment, Server and Security Rooms (but no other areas or equipment); the site generator will also provide backup power to the air-conditioning units for Subtenant’s Server Room.

6.    Late Charge: If Sublessee fails to pay Sublessor any amount due hereunder within three (3) days after amount is due, Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor upon demand a late charge equal to ten percent (10%) of the delinquent amount. The parties agree that the foregoing late charge represents a reasonable estimate of the cost and expense that Sublessor will incur in processing each delinquent payment. Sublessor’s acceptance of any interest or late charge shall not waive Sublessee’s default in failing to pay the delinquent amount.

7.    Repairs: Sublessor shall deliver the Subpremises to Sublessee in it current “as-is” condition, subject to Section 13B. hereof. Sublessor shall have no obligation whatsoever to make or pay the cost of any alterations, improvements or repairs to the Subpremises, including, without limitation, any improvement or repair required to comply with any law, regulation, building code or ordinance (including, without limitation, the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 (“ADA”)). Sublessee shall look solely to Master Lessor for performance of any repairs required to be performed by Master Lessor under the terms of the Master Lease, and if Master Lessor fails to perform any such repairs within twenty (20) days after Master Lessor has been requested to do so by Sublessee, then Sublessee shall promptly notify Sublessor of Master Lessor’s failure to perform and shall have the rights under Section 25.A.(iii) hereof.

8.    Indemnity; Limitation of Liability: To the fullest extent permitted by law, Sublessee shall indemnify, protect, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Sublessor) and hold harmless Sublessor from and against any and all claims, liabilities, judgments, causes of action, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ and experts’ fees), caused

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Sublessor shall indemnify, protect, defend (with counsel reasonably acceptable to Sublessee) and hold harmless Sublessee from and against any and all claims, liabilities, judgments, causes of action, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and experts’ fees) of Sublessee, directly and proximately caused by Sublessor’s Default (as defined in the Master Lease) under the Master Lease which results in the termination of the Master Lease; provided however, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Sublease, in no event shall Sublessor be liable for any consequential damages incurred by Sublessee (e.g., any injury to the business of the applicable party or loss of income or profit therefrom) in connection with this Sublease, the Subpremises, the Shared Services, the Master Premises, the Master Lease or any Default of Sublessor thereunder.

The foregoing indemnifications shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Sublease.

9.    Right to Cure Defaults: If Sublessee fails to pay any sum of money to Sublessor when due, or fails to perform any other act on its part to be performed hereunder, then Sublessor may, but shall not be obligated to, make such payment or perform such act. All such sums paid, and all costs and expenses of performing any such act, shall be deemed Additional Subrent payable by Sublessee to Sublessor upon demand. In addition, Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor interest on all amounts due, at that interest rate determined as of the time it is to be applied that is equal to the lesser of (i) two percent (2%) over the per annum rate of interest announced from time to time by Bank of America, San Francisco Main Branch, as its “Reference Rate,” or (ii) the maximum interest rate permitted by law (the “Interest Rate”), from the due date to and including the date of the payment, from the date of the expenditure until repaid.

10.    Assignment and Subletting: Sublessee may not assign this Sublease, sublet the Subpremises, transfer any interest of Sublessee therein or permit any use of the Subpremises by another party (collectively, “Transfer”), without the prior written consent of Sublessor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and Master Lessor, and otherwise in strict accordance with the terms of the Master Lease as incorporated herein. A consent to one Transfer shall not be deemed to be a consent to any subsequent Transfer. Any Transfer without such consent shall be void and, at the option of Sublessor, shall terminate this Sublease. Sublessor’s waiver or consent to any assignment or subletting shall be ineffective unless set forth in writing, and Sublessee shall not be relieved from any of its obligations under this Sublease unless the consent expressly so provides. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Master Lease (as incorporated herein) or this Sublease, Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor fifty percent (50%) of all rent and other consideration received by Sublessee in connection with any assignment of the Sublease or sublease of the Subpremises in excess of the Subrent allocated to the space sublet or assigned, after deducting any brokerage commissions and reasonable

attorneys fees and other reasonable out-of-pocket third party expenses incurred by Sublessee in connection with the Transfer.

11.    Use: Sublessee may use the Subpremises only for general office use and for no other purpose except as specifically permitted under Section 1.24 of the Master Lease. With respect to Hazardous Materials, Sublessee shall not engage in or permit any activities in or about the Subpremises which involve the use or presence of Hazardous Materials except in compliance with the Master Lease. Sublessee shall not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Subpremises that would (i) injure the Master Premises or the Subpremises, (ii) vibrate, shake, overload, or impair the efficient operation of the Master Premises or the sprinkler systems, heating, ventilating or air conditioning equipment, or utilities systems located therein, (iii) increase the existing rates for or cause cancellation of any fire, casualty, liability or other insurance policy insuring the Subpremises or Master Premises, (iv) obstruct or interfere with the rights of other users of the Subpremises or Master Premises, (v) constitute the commission of waste or the maintenance of a nuisance on the Subpremises or Master Premises, (vi) involve the use, sale, or consumption of alcoholic beverages on the Subpremises or Master Premises; or (vii) constitute an alteration of the Subpremises or Master Premises, except in compliance with the Master Lease. Sublessee shall not store any materials, supplies, finished or unfinished products, or articles of any nature outside of the Subpremises. Sublessee shall comply with all rules and regulations promulgated from time to time by Master Lessor with respect to Sublessor’s use of the Subpremises. As used in this Sublease, the term “Hazardous Materials” shall mean any materials or substances that are now or hereafter prohibited or regulated by any statute, law, rule, regulation or ordinance or that are now or hereafter designated by any governmental authority to be radioactive, toxic, hazardous or otherwise a danger to health, reproduction or the environment.

12.    Effect of Conveyance: As used in this Sublease, the term “Sublessor” means the holder of the tenant’s interest under the Master Lease. Sublessor shall not transfer said tenant’s interest without the prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) of Sublessee; provided, that, such consent shall not be required if Sublessee and Master Lessor have entered into the agreements contemplated by Section 13.F.(ii) and (iii) hereof. Any purported transfer (whether by assignment, sublease or operation of law) without complying with the prior sentence of this Section 12 shall be void. In the event of any transfer of said tenant’s interest in compliance with the Master Lease and this Section 12, and following a written assumption by the transferee of such interest of this Sublease and all covenants and obligations of Sublessor hereunder, then, Sublessor shall be relieved of such, and it shall be deemed and construed, without further agreement between the parties, that the transferee shall carry out all covenants and obligations thereafter to be performed by Sublessor hereunder.

13.    Subleasing Covenants:

A.    Acceptance. Except as set forth in Section 13.B. hereof, the parties acknowledge and agree that Sublessee is subleasing the Subpremises on an “AS IS” basis and Sublessor has made no representations or warranties of any kind with respect to the condition of the Subpremises; provided, however, the Subpremises shall be delivered to Sublessee in “broom clean” condition.

Sublessee shall indemnify, defend with counsel reasonably acceptable to Sublessor, protect and hold harmless Sublessor against any and all claims, liabilities, judgments, causes of action, damages, costs, and expenses (including attorneys’ and experts’ fees) resulting from Sublessee’s delay in surrendering the Subpremises in the condition required, including, without limitation, any claim made by Sublessor or any succeeding tenant founded on or resulting from such failure to surrender.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Agreement confirms the agreement and understanding between AVAGO TECHNOLOGIES SENSOR (U.S.A.) INC., a Delaware corporation (“Avago”) and MARVELL SEMICONDUCTOR, INC., a California corporation (“Marvell”) with respect to that certain office building located at 4238 SW Research Way, Corvallis, Oregon (the “Building”).

Simultaneously with the execution hereof, Avago Technologies Limited and certain of its subsidiaries and affiliates (“Seller”) and Marvell Technology Group Ltd. and certain of its subsidiaries and affiliates (“Buyer”) are executing a certain Amendment No. 1 to Purchase and Sale Agreement (“PSA Amendment”), which PSA Amendment amends and modifies in certain respects the Purchase and Sale Agreement dated as of February 17, 2006 by and between Seller and Purchaser (as amended by the PSA Amendment, the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the PSA Amendment, upon the Closing (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), Marvell and Avago will enter into the Sublease Agreement (the “Sublease”) in form and substance attached to said PSA Amendment with respect to the Building, pursuant to which Sublease Marvell will, among other things, sublease the second floor of the Building (the “Subpremises”) from Avago. It is the intent of Avago and Marvell to enter into this Agreement regardless of when or whether the Sublease becomes effective and binding upon Avago and Marvell. Defined terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed in the Sublease.

Avago currently maintains a server room (“Server Room”) and a Demarcation Room (the “Demarcation Room”) in the Avago Premises, as well as a main distribution frame room (the “MDF Room”), a security closet (“Security Closet”) and a storage room adjacent to the MDF Room (the “Storage Room”) located in the Subpremises. Marvell desires to perform certain alterations to the MDF Room, Security Closet and the Storage Room as more specifically described on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Marvell Alterations”) prior to the Closing in order to facilitate its commencement of operations at the Subpremises as soon as practicable following the Commencement Date.

Subject to the terms and provisions of the Sublease, Master Lease, any requirements of the Master Lessor as a condition to consenting to the Marvell Alterations, and applicable laws, all of which are and shall be Marvell’s sole obligation to comply with at its sole cost and expense, Avago hereby agrees and consents to Marvell performing and constructing the Marvell Alterations, at Marvell’s sole cost and expense, and on such schedule as Marvell deems appropriate (but consistent with the terms of this Agreement). Avago hereby agrees to reasonably cooperate to assist Marvell, at Marvell’s sole cost and expense, in facilitating its permitting for the Marvell Alterations (including seeking the consent of the Master Lessor to the Marvell Alterations, if required depending on the nature and cost of the alterations to be performed), and to allow Marvell reasonable access to the Avago Premises, the MDF Room, the Security Closet and the Storage Room, as necessary, to construct the Marvell Alterations. Additionally, to enable Marvell to perform the Marvell Alterations, Avago hereby agrees that it shall perform certain work in the Server Room, MDF Room, Security Closet and Demarcation Room as more specifically described on Exhibit B attached hereto (the “Avago Work”). Avago further agrees that is shall commence, diligently prosecute and use commercially reasonable efforts to prosecute the Avago Work to completion no later than the later of (i) April 24, 2006, and (ii) the date that is seven (7) days prior to the Closing (except as otherwise provided on Exhibit B hereto); provided, however that the installation of a port for the DS3 line shall be completed no later than the later of (i) April 7, 2006, and (ii) the date that is fourteen (14) days prior to the Closing.

Marvell agrees that it will perform and construct the Marvell Alterations in compliance with all applicable laws, the Sublease, Master Lease and any other requirements of the Master Lessor in connection therewith. Marvell hereby agrees that in the event that the Closing does not occur, then Marvell shall, at Avago’s election, either remove the Marvell Alterations and restore the MDF Room, the Security Closet and Storage Room (and any other portion of the Subpremises affected by the Marvell Alterations) to their condition immediately prior to the construction of the Marvell Alterations, or reimburse Avago for the actual costs incurred by Avago to conduct such removal and restoration; provided, however that Marvell shall not have any such removal, restoration or reimbursement obligations if the failure of Seller Parent or Seller to satisfy the condition set forth in Section 7.3(b) of the Purchase Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur. In the event that Marvell is obligated to remove the Marvell Alterations and restore the MDF Room, the Security Closet and Storage Room (and any other portion of the Subpremises affected by the Marvell Alterations) pursuant to the foregoing, Marvell shall also comply with any and all other requirements or obligations of the Sublease, Master Lease and of the Master Lessor with respect thereto. The parties hereto expressly acknowledge and agree that no failure or either party hereto to perform its obligations hereunder shall give rise to a right of the other party to delay the Closing.

Without limiting the scope and inclusiveness of the foregoing, as a condition to Marvell’s or Marvell’s contractors’ or agents’ entry upon the Building or Subpremises and to Avago’s agreements set forth herein, (a) Marvell shall obtain and deliver to Avago certificates of insurance required pursuant to the Sublease (as though the Sublease were in effect), including without limitation builders’ risk, commercial liability and property damage insurance, or otherwise specified by Master Lessor in connection with its consent to the Marvell Alterations and (b) Marvell hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Avago in accordance with first paragraph of Section 8 of the Sublease which is deemed incorporated herein by reference for this purpose.

VIII.     DISPUTE RESOLUTION

A.     Negotiation. The parties shall make a good faith attempt to resolve any dispute or claim arising out of or related to this Agreement through negotiation. Within thirty (30) days after notice of a dispute or claim is given by either party to the other party, the parties’ first tier negotiating teams (as determined by each party’s Director of Intellectual Property or his or her delegate) shall meet and make a good faith attempt to resolve such dispute or claim and shall continue to negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve the dispute or claim or renegotiate the applicable section or provision without the necessity of any formal proceedings. If the first tier negotiating teams are unable to agree within thirty (30) days of their first meeting, then the parties’ second tier negotiating teams (as determined by each party’s Director of Intellectual Property or his or her delegate) shall meet within thirty (30) days after the end of the first thirty (30) day negotiating period to attempt to resolve the matter. During the course of negotiations under this Section A, all reasonable requests made by one party to the other for information, including requests for copies of relevant documents, will be honored. The specific format for such negotiations will be left to the discretion of the designated negotiating teams but may include the preparation of agreed upon statements of fact or written statements of position furnished to the other party.

B.     Nonbinding Mediation. In the event that any dispute or claim arising out of or related to this Agreement is not settled by the parties within fifteen (15) days after the first meeting of the second tier negotiating teams under Section A, the parties will attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute or claim by nonbinding mediation in accordance with the American


Arbitration Association Commercial Mediation Rules. The mediation shall be held within thirty (30) days of the end of such fifteen (15) day negotiation period of the second tier negotiating teams. Except as provided below in Section C, no litigation for the resolution of such dispute may be commenced until the parties try in good faith to settle the dispute by such mediation in accordance with such rules and either party has concluded in good faith that amicable resolution through continued mediation of the matter does not appear likely. The costs of mediation shall be shared equally by the parties to the mediation. Any settlement reached by mediation shall be recorded in writing, signed by the parties, and shall be binding on them.

C.     Proceedings. Nothing herein, however, shall prohibit either party from initiating litigation or other judicial or administrative proceedings if such party would be substantially harmed by a failure to act during the time that such good faith efforts are being made to resolve the dispute or claim through negotiation or mediation. In the event that litigation is commenced under this Section C, the parties agree to continue to attempt to resolve any dispute or claim according to the terms of Sections A and B during the course of such litigation proceedings under this Section C.

Licensee shall not have any right to institute any action or suit against Third Parties for infringement of any of the Copyrights, Database Rights or Mask Work Rights in or to the HP Technology.

D.     No Other Obligations. NEITHER PARTY ASSUMES ANY RESPONSIBILITIES OR OBLIGATIONS WHATSOEVER, OTHER THAN THE RESPONSIBILITIES AND OBLIGATIONS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT OR A SEPARATE WRITTEN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

J.     Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a nonappealable decision of a court, administrative agency or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible.


K.     Failure or Indulgence not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of either party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty or agreement herein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

L.     Amendment. No change or amendment will be made to this Agreement except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties to such agreement.
