The Parties have contemplated that RSP and RSP-TW will have (on a consolidated basis) (X) Working Capital as of the Closing (the “Closing Working Capital”), as calculated in accordance with this Agreement and on a basis consistent with Schedule 2.5(a), of JPY3,576,000,000 (the “Working Capital Target”), (Y) a Closing Cash Balance in an amount equal to the Cash Target, and (Z) Closing Backlog in an amount equal to the Backlog Target.

The Estimated Statement, Closing Balance Sheet and Month End Financials will be signed by an Executive Vice President of RSP. Following delivery of the Estimated Statement and Closing Balance Sheet, the Seller Parties will (and will cause RSP and RSP-TW to) provide Purchaser Parent and its Representatives with reasonable access to the officers, books and records of RSP and RSP-TW and the independent auditors of RSP and RSP-TW, to verify the accuracy of such amounts in accordance with this Agreement, all to the extent deemed reasonably necessary by Purchaser Parent. In the event that Purchaser Parent does not agree with the Sellers’ calculations of the Estimated Working Capital, the Estimated Closing Cash Balance, Estimated Third Party Expenses, Estimated Company Indebtedness, Estimated Closing Backlog and Estimated Closing Backlog Adjustment, or the Closing Balance Sheet, the Seller Representative and Purchaser Parent will negotiate in good faith to mutually agree on acceptable estimates, and the Seller Representative will consider in good faith, but in its sole discretion, any proposed comments or changes that Purchaser Parent may reasonably suggest; provided, however, that the Seller Representative’s failure to include any changes proposed by Purchaser Parent, or the acceptance by Purchaser Parent of the Estimated Statement, the Closing Balance Sheet, the Estimated Closing Cash Balance, the Estimated Third Party Expenses, the Estimated Company Indebtedness, the Estimated Closing Backlog, or the Estimated Closing Backlog Adjustment, does not constitute an acknowledgment by Purchasers of the accuracy of the Estimated Statement or Closing Balance Sheet, and will not limit or otherwise affect Purchasers’ remedies under this Agreement, including Purchasers’ right to include such changes or other changes in the Closing Statement.

(b) Closing Statement. Within 90 days after the Closing Date, Purchaser Parent will prepare and deliver to the Sellers a calculation of the Closing Adjustment Items (the “Closing Statement”) together with such schedules and data setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of any disparity between the Estimated Statement and the Closing Statement, including a copy of the Estimated Statement marked to indicate those specific line items that are in dispute, if any, and accompanied by Purchaser Parent’s calculation of each such line item that is in dispute. Following delivery of the Closing Statement, Purchasers shall provide the Seller Representative with reasonable access to officers, employees and the financial records of RSP and RSP-TW, solely for the purpose of reviewing the Closing Statement in accordance with this Agreement, all to the extent deemed reasonably necessary by the Seller Representative and in a manner not unreasonably disruptive to RSP’s or RSP-TW’s business; provided, that the Seller Representative will not, except with the prior written consent of Purchaser Parent, (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld), contact any employee of either Purchaser, RSP, or RSP-TW. For purposes of this Section 2.5, Working Capital, Cash, Company Indebtedness, Third Party Expenses and Backlog will be calculated in accordance with this Agreement (including, in the case of Working Capital, Schedule 2.5(a)) and with Japanese GAAP applied using the same accounting methods, policies, practices and procedures, with consistent classifications, judgments and estimation methodology, in each case to the extent consistent with Japanese GAAP, as were used in the preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements of RSP and RSP-TW as of April 30, 2014 delivered to Purchaser Parent before the date hereof.

(c) Determination of Final Working Capital, Final Closing Cash Balance, Final Third Party Expenses, Final Company Indebtedness, and Final Closing Backlog. If the Seller Representative disagrees in whole or in part with the Closing Statement, then within 30 days after its receipt of the Closing Statement, it will notify Purchaser Parent of such disagreement in writing (the “Notice of Disagreement”), setting forth in reasonable detail the particulars of any such disagreement. To be effective, any such Notice of Disagreement must include a copy of the Closing Statement marked to indicate those specific line items that are in dispute (the “Disputed Line Items”) and must be accompanied by the Seller Representative’s calculation of each of the Disputed Line Items and the Seller Representative’s revised Closing Statement setting forth its determination of each Closing Adjustment Item. To the extent the Seller Representative provides a Notice of Disagreement within such 30 day period, all items that are not Disputed Line Items are final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder unless the resolution of such Disputed Line Item affects an undisputed item, in which case such undisputed item remains open and shall be considered a Disputed Line Item by Purchaser Parent. In the event that the Seller Representative does not provide a Notice of Disagreement within such 30-day period, the Seller Representative will be deemed to have accepted in full the Closing Statement as prepared by Purchaser Parent, which, in such case, is final, binding and conclusive for all purposes hereunder. In the event any Notice of Disagreement is timely provided and contains the proper information required above, Purchaser Parent and the Seller Representative will use best efforts for a period of 30 days (or such longer period as they may mutually agree) to resolve any Disputed Line Items. During such 30-day period, Purchaser Parent and the Seller Representative will have access to the working papers, schedules and calculations of the other used in the preparation of the Closing Statement and the Notice of Disagreement and the determination of the Closing Adjustment Items, and Disputed Line Items. If, at the end of such period, Purchaser Parent and the Seller Representative are unable to resolve such Disputed Line Items, then such Disputed Line Items shall be referred to the Tokyo office of the accounting firm of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu or, if such office is unable or unwilling to act, an internationally recognized accounting firm mutually agreed by Purchaser Parent and the Seller Representative (the “Settlement Accountant”). Purchaser Parent and the Seller Representative will enter into reasonable and customary arrangements for the services to be rendered by the Settlement Accountant under this Section 2.5(c). The Settlement Accountant will be directed to determine as promptly as practicable (and in any event within 30 days from the date that the dispute is submitted to it), whether the Disputed Line Items in the Closing Statement were prepared in accordance with the standards set forth in this Section 2.5 and whether and to what extent (if any) each Closing Adjustment Item requires adjustment. The Settlement Accountant is to resolve each Disputed Line Item by calculating such Disputed Line Item in accordance with this Agreement (for each such Disputed Line Item, the amount so calculated is referred to as the “Accountant Determined Amount”) and establishing as the final amount of such Disputed Line Item the applicable Accountant Determined Amount; provided, that the Accountant Determined Amount for each Disputed Line Item may not be greater than the highest amount proposed by Purchaser Parent and the Seller Representative nor less than the lowest amount proposed by Purchaser Parent and the Seller Representative. Purchaser Parent and the Seller Representative will each furnish to the Settlement Accountant such work papers and other documents and information relating to the disputed issues, and will answer questions as the Settlement Accountant may reasonably request. The determination of the Settlement Accountant is final, conclusive and binding on the Parties. The amounts determined to be the Closing Working Capital pursuant to this Section 2.5(c) will constitute the “Final Working Capital.” The amount determined to be the Closing Cash Balance pursuant to this Section 2.5(c) will constitute the “Final Closing Cash Balance.” The amount determined to be the Closing Third Party Expenses pursuant to this Section 2.5(c) will constitute the “Final Third Party Expenses.” The amount determined to be the Closing Company Indebtedness pursuant to this Section 2.5(c) will constitute the “Final Company Indebtedness.” The amount determined to be the Closing Backlog pursuant to this Section 2.5(c) will constitute the “Final Closing Backlog.” The Closing Backlog Adjustment calculated in respect of the Final Closing Backlog will constitute the “Final Closing Backlog Adjustment.”

(d) Consultation among Sellers. Promptly after the receipt of the Closing Statement, Sellers, including Seller Representative, shall consult with each other regarding the objection to the Closing Statement in order to agree on whether or not to provide the Notice of Disagreement and the content of the Notice of Disagreement. In the case where the Sellers failed to reach a mutual agreement in this regard, the Seller Representative shall provide Notice of Disagreement based on the objection by a Seller that is farthermost from the Closing Statement regarding each Disputed Line Item and made within 20 days after the receipt of the Closing Statement.

(e) Fees and Expenses of Settlement Accountant. The fees and expenses of the Settlement Accountant will be split equally by the Purchaser Parent and the Seller Representative.

(f) Calculations. The Parties agree that if any provision of this Agreement requires an amount or calculation to be “determined in accordance with this Agreement and Japanese GAAP” (or words of similar import), then to the extent that the terms of this Agreement (including Schedule 2.5(a)) expressly conflict with, or are expressly inconsistent with, Japanese GAAP in connection with such determination, the terms of this Agreement (including Schedule 2.5(a)) will control.

(g) Settlement. Within five (5) Business Days after the final determination of the Closing Adjustment Items in accordance with this Section 2.5:

(i) if the Closing Adjustment Amount is positive or zero, Purchaser Sub shall promptly pay (X) the amount of the Closing Adjustment Amount plus (Y) the entire Closing Holdback Fund to be paid to the Sellers, pro rata in proportion to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the respective accounts designated by the Sellers; and

(ii) if the Closing Adjustment Amount is negative: (A) Purchaser Sub shall retain from the Closing Holdback Fund the absolute value amount by which the Closing Adjustment Amount is less than zero (the “Shortfall”), (B) if the amount of the Shortfall is less than the Closing Holdback Fund, Purchaser Sub shall promptly cause the amount by which the Closing Holdback Fund exceeds the Shortfall to be paid to the Sellers, pro rata in proportion to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the respective accounts designated by the Sellers, and (C) if the amount of the Shortfall exceeds the amount of the Closing Holdback Fund, the Sellers shall promptly pay to Purchaser Sub the amount of the Shortfall that is in excess of the Closing Holdback Fund, pro rata in proportion to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designed by the Purchaser Sub.

Prior to the Closing Date, each Seller Party will, and will cause each of RSP and RSP-TW to, (i) employ its best efforts to obtain all consents, waivers and approvals of any parties to any Contract as are required thereunder in connection with the Transactions, including all of the consents listed in Schedule 5.2 (the “Required Consents”), and (ii) other than with respect to Antitrust Clearance pursuant to Section 5.3, each of the Seller Parties shall, and Sellers shall cause each of RSP and RSP-TW to, give any notices to, make any filings with, and use its best efforts to obtain any authorizations, consents, and approvals of Governmental Entities required of it in connection with the purchase and sale of the Target Shares contemplated under this Agreement, including the matters referred to in Section 3.2(c) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule. All such consents, waivers, approvals, notices, filings and authorizations will be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchasers, and RSP and RSP-TW will provide to Purchasers evidence, reasonably satisfactory to Purchasers, of all such consents, waivers, approvals, notices, filings and authorizations that are obtained. Prior to the Closing, each Seller Party will, and will cause each of RSP and RSP-TW to, give prior notice of the Transactions using a format approved by Purchaser Parent to (i) all Persons as required in connection with the Transactions, and (ii) all suppliers, Representatives, agents, customers and other business partners of RSP and RSP-TW. Purchasers shall provide reasonable cooperation to the Seller Parties in procuring the foregoing consents and giving such notices (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents as may be reasonably necessary), but shall not, unless otherwise specified in Schedule 5.2, be responsible for the payment of any Consent Fees (all of which shall be solely the responsibility of the Sellers) in connection therewith.

(a) Antitrust Clearance. The Purchasers will use best efforts to obtain the required antitrust clearance (including the expiration of the applicable waiting period) under the applicable Law of Japan and any other jurisdiction (“Antitrust Clearance”) and shall take all actions necessary to prepare and to make the filings for the Antitrust Clearance. Each Seller Party undertakes to cooperate, and cause RSP and RSP-TW to cooperate, with Purchasers in providing as promptly as reasonably practicable all reasonably required information concerning the Seller Parties and to reasonably assist in making such filings. Purchasers and the Seller Parties each will supply as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested by any other Governmental Entity. Each Seller Party acknowledges that the Purchasers will lead the process to obtain all necessary waivers, consents and approvals required for Antitrust Clearance, and that Purchasers’ determination after reasonable consultation with Sellers as to the appropriate course of action to obtain Antitrust Clearance is final, provided that the foregoing shall not in any respect limit any of the parties’ obligations under this Agreement. Purchasers and each Seller Party will use best efforts to cooperate in good faith with respect to all of the following actions to the extent necessary or appropriate to obtain Antitrust Clearance: (1) entering into negotiations with Governmental Entities; (2) providing information required by Law; and (3) substantially complying with any supplemental request for information in accordance with the antitrust or competition Laws. The filing fees in connection with any Antitrust Clearance filing shall be borne by Purchasers. Otherwise, Purchasers will be responsible for their own expenses and costs that they incur with respect to obtaining Antitrust Clearances, and each Seller will be responsible for its respective pro rata portion (determined in proportion to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages) of the total expenses and costs that are incurred by all Sellers with respect to obtaining Antitrust Clearance.

(b) Purchasers will use best efforts to resolve such objections, if any, as may be asserted by any Governmental Entity with respect to Antitrust Clearance (and RSP and RSP-TW will resolve, and Sellers will cause RSP and RSP-TW to so resolve, any such objections). The Sellers will use best efforts to cooperate with Purchasers to resolve any such objections. Neither any Purchaser nor any Seller Party or any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to defend, contest or resist any action or Proceeding, whether judicial or administrative, or to take any action to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Order, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. At the request and expense of Purchasers, however, if any administrative or judicial action or Proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by a Governmental Entity or private party challenging any Transaction contemplated by this Agreement, or any other agreement contemplated hereby, each Seller Party will cooperate with Purchasers as reasonably required by Purchaser in order for Purchasers to contest and resist any such action or Proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the Transactions.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, Purchasers are not required to, and Seller Parties are not required to, and none of them may (or may permit RSP or RSP-TW to), without the prior written consent of Purchaser Parent, become subject to, consent to, or offer or agree to, or otherwise take any action with respect to, any requirement, condition, limitation, understanding, agreement or Order to (i) sell, license, assign, transfer, divest, hold separate or otherwise dispose of any assets, business or portion of business of RSP or RSP-TW, (ii) conduct, restrict, operate, invest or otherwise change the assets, business or portion of business of RSP or RSP-TW in any manner, or (iii) impose any restriction, requirement or limitation on the operation of the business or portion of the business of RSP or RSP-TW; provided that, if requested by Purchaser Parent, Seller Parties will cause RSP and RSP-TW to become subject to, consent to, or offer or agree to, or otherwise take any action with respect to, any such requirement, condition, limitation, understanding, agreement or Order so long as such requirement, condition, limitation, understanding, agreement or Order is only binding on RSP and/or RSP-TW, in the event the Closing occurs.

(d) In no event is either Purchaser obligated to (1) divest any of its or any of its Affiliates’ businesses, product lines or assets, or to agree to any divestiture of any Seller Party’s businesses, product lines or assets, or (2) take or agree to take any other action or agree to any limitation on the conduct of its or any Seller Party’s business as a condition of obtaining Antitrust Clearance. In no event is any Seller Party required to (x) divest any of its businesses, product lines or assets, or (y) take or agree to take any other action or agree to any limitation on the conduct of its business as a condition of obtaining Antitrust Clearance.

5.4 Operation of Business. Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, RSP and RSP-TW (X) will, and the Seller Parties will cause RSP and RSP-TW to, take all reasonable steps to preserve and protect the assets of RSP and RSP-TW in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, in accordance with operations in the Ordinary Course of Business, and (Y) will not, and the Seller Parties will not cause or permit RSP or RSP-TW to, engage in any practice, take any action, or enter into any transaction outside the Ordinary Course of Business. Without limiting the foregoing, between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, RSP and RSP-TW will not, and the Seller Parties will not cause or permit RSP or RSP-TW to (and, with respect to subsections (p) and (q), the Sellers will not, except in connection with any and all transactions or actions that are required or expressly permitted under this Agreement), without the prior written consent of Purchaser Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld:

The Sellers shall keep the Data Room open until the Closing, and make the Data Room available to the Purchasers and its Representatives in the same manner as the Sellers made the Data Room available as of and prior to the Effective Date.

(b) Until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement and the Closing Date, the Seller Parties will, and will cause the officers, counsel or other Representatives of the Seller Parties to, promptly notify Purchaser Parent of any material changes or developments in the operational matters of RSP or RSP-TW, and to confer from time to time as requested by Purchaser Parent and reasonably agreed by such Seller Party with one or more Representatives of Purchaser Parent during ordinary business hours to discuss, any material changes or developments in the operational matters of RSP or RSP-TW and the general status of the ongoing business and operations of RSP and RSP-TW. To the extent Purchaser Parent requests further information or investigation of the basis of any potential violations of Law, including Laws related to export control and the FCPA, based on reasonable evidence for such existing or potential violations of Law, the Seller Parties will, and will cause the officers, counsel or other Representatives of the Seller Parties to cooperate with such request and will make available any personnel or experts engaged by any Seller Party necessary to accommodate such request.

5.6 Notice of Developments. Prior to the Closing, the Seller Parties will (and will cause RSP and RSP-TW to) notify Purchaser Parent promptly of, and Purchasers shall promptly notify each Seller of, (i) any development, event, condition, fact or circumstance that causes or would be likely to cause any of the representations or warranties in Schedule 3.1 or Schedule 3.2, in the case of Seller Parties, or in Schedule 4.1, in the case of Purchasers, to be untrue or inaccurate in any material respect on the Closing Date; (ii) any misrepresentation or breach of any warranty in Schedule 3.1 or Schedule 3.2, in the case of Seller Parties, or in Schedule 4.1, in the case of Purchasers, on the Effective Date; (iii) any breach or any development, event, condition, fact or circumstance that would be likely to cause a material breach of any covenant or obligation of any Seller Party under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement; and (iv) any development, event, condition, fact or circumstance that would make the timely satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1, in the case of the Seller Parties, or in Section 7.2, in the case of Purchasers, impossible or highly unlikely, after recognition of any of the above event. Each Seller Party will (and will cause RSP and RSP-TW to) promptly notify Purchaser Parent of any Proceedings commenced or threatened in writing against any Party related to this Agreement or the Transactions. No such notification shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made in this Agreement.

(a) Until such time, if any, as this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1 or the Closing, whichever comes earlier, each Seller Party will not, and will cause RSP, RSP-TW and such Seller Party’s, RSP’s and RSP-TW’s respective Affiliates (including INCJ, which will be deemed an Affiliate of REL, RSP and RSP-TW for the purpose of this Section 5.7) and Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate, respond to or encourage any inquiry or proposal from, discuss or negotiate with, provide any non-public information to, or consider the merits of any unsolicited inquiry or proposal from, any Person (other than either Purchaser) relating to any transaction involving (i) the sale or potential sale of any of the Target Shares (or any other equity interests of RSP or RSP-TW), (ii) the sale or potential sale or exclusive license or potential exclusive license of the business of RSP, RSP-TW or any portion thereof, (iii) the sale or potential sale of or exclusive license or potential exclusive license of any property or asset related to or used in the business of RSP or RSP-TW (except in the Ordinary Course of Business), or (iv) any merger, consolidation, business combination, carve out, spin off, or other transaction, whether or not similar to the foregoing (each, an “Acquisition Transaction”), involving RSP or RSP-TW; provided, however, that this Section 5.7 shall not restrict a Seller Party from informing a Person inquiring about or proposing an Acquisition Transaction that the Seller Party is subject to the obligations of this Section 5.7.

(b) Upon execution of this Agreement, each Seller Party will, and will cause RSP, RSP-TW and such Seller Party’s, RSP’s and RSP-TW’s respective Affiliates and Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any existing direct or indirect discussions with any Person (other than either Purchaser) that are in respect of an Acquisition Transaction. From the date hereof until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to its terms and the Closing Date, each Seller Party will, and will cause RSP, RSP-TW and such Seller Party’s, RSP’s and RSP-TW’s respective Representatives and Affiliates to, promptly (and in no event later than 24 hours after receipt thereof) notify Purchaser Parent, subject to any existing confidentiality obligations of the Seller Parties or their Representatives to any Person

under any confidentiality agreement in effect as of May 2, 2014, orally and in writing of any proposal for, or inquiry respecting, any Acquisition Transaction or any request for nonpublic information in connection with such proposal or inquiry, or for access to the properties, books, or records of RSP or RSP-TW by any Person or entity that informs any Seller Party that it is considering making, or has made, such a proposal or inquiry (whether or not such proposal or inquiry is written). Such notice will indicate the identity of the Person or entity making the proposal or inquiry and the terms and conditions of such proposal or inquiry in reasonable detail. The Seller Parties will, subject to any existing confidentiality obligations of the Seller Parties or their Representatives to any Person under any confidentiality agreement in effect as of May 2, 2014 and related to an Acquisition Proposal, keep Purchaser Parent informed on a reasonably current basis (and, in any event, within 24 hours) of the status and details of any material modifications to any such proposal, offer or request. Each Seller Party will use its best efforts to promptly terminate any such confidentiality agreement to the extent related to any Acquisition Proposal.

(c) Except as required by Section 5.9, until such time, if any, as this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1 or the Closing, whichever comes earlier, each Seller Party will not, and will cause RSP and RSP-TW not to, dispose, sell or transfer, with or without consideration, (i) the business of RSP, RSP-TW or any portion thereof, (ii) any property or asset related to or used in the business of RSP or RSP-TW (except in the Ordinary Course of Business), or (iii) any equity interest of RSP or RSP-TW.

(a) Financing. Purchasers shall employ best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange and obtain the financing necessary to purchase the Target Shares (the “Financing”). Purchasers shall keep each Seller Party reasonably informed of material developments in respect of the financing process relating thereto.

(b) Notice; Alternative Financing. If, notwithstanding the employment of best efforts by Purchasers to satisfy their obligations under Section 5.8(a), any portion of the Financing becomes unavailable, in whole or in part, for any reason, Purchasers will (i) promptly notify each Seller Party, indicating the reasons therefor, and (ii) employ its best efforts promptly to arrange for alternative Financing (including debt, equity and other financing) in an amount sufficient to complete the transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) Access to Information. From the Effective Date until the earlier to occur of the Closing Date and the termination of this Agreement, the Seller Parties will, and will cause RSP and RSP-TW to, timely furnish Purchasers and the Financing Sources with such financial, operating, business, financial condition, projections and other data and information as Purchasers or the Financing Sources, through their Representatives, may reasonably request, including furnishing all historical financial statements and historical financial and other data of the type and form customarily included in registration statements for public offerings made under the Securities Act, offering documents used in private placements under Rule 144A of the Securities Act and syndicated loan transactions. The Seller Parties will, and will cause RSP and RSP-TW to, provide to Purchasers and the Financing Sources information which is complete and correct in all material respects and does not and will not, in whole or in part, for any reason, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which such statements are made, not misleading. RSP and RSP-TW each hereby consents to the use of all of RSP’s and RSP-TW’s logos in connection with the Financing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, from the Effective Date until the earlier to occur of the Closing Date and the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Seller Parties will, and will cause RSP and RSP-TW to, provide to Purchasers all cooperation reasonably necessary in connection with Purchasers’ financing of the Transactions, including using best efforts with respect to (i) assisting in preparation for and participation in a reasonable number of meetings, presentations, due diligence sessions and sessions with rating agencies, prospective lenders, legal counsel and investors, (ii) providing customary authorization letters to the Financing Sources authorizing the distribution of information to prospective lenders or investors with customary confidentiality legends, (iii) obtaining accountants’ comfort letters (including comfort letters customary in similar types of Transactions for pro forma financial information and related adjustments) at Purchasers’ expense, (iv) taking all actions reasonably necessary to permit the Financing Sources to evaluate RSP’s and RSP-TW’s Current Assets, Cash, Inventory, cash management and accounting systems, policies and procedures relating thereto, (v) taking all corporate actions reasonably necessary to permit the consummation of Purchasers’ financing of the Transactions and to permit the proceeds thereof to be made available as of the Closing Date, (v) executing and delivering at Closing any pledge and security documents, other definitive financing documents or other certificates or documents as may be reasonably requested by either Purchaser (including a certificate of an appropriate officer of RSP or RSP-TW with respect to solvency matters and consents of accountants for use of their reports in any materials relating to Purchasers’ financing of the Transactions), (vi) using best efforts to cooperate with the Purchasers and the Purchasers’ efforts to obtain customary and reasonable corporate and facilities ratings and consents, as reasonably requested by the Purchasers with respect to the financing and assisting the Purchaser in the preparation of customary rating agency presentations and lender presentations or memoranda, customary bank offering memoranda, syndication memoranda, private offering memoranda and other marketing materials or memoranda, including business and financial projections, reasonably requested by the Purchasers or the Financing Sources, in each case, in connection with the financing, (vii) furnishing the Purchasers and the Financing Sources promptly with all documentation and other information which any lender or potential lender providing or arranging financing has reasonably requested under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation the PATRIOT Act, (viii) otherwise cooperating with the marketing efforts of the Purchasers and the Financing Sources for the financing as reasonably requested by the Purchasers (including, without limitation, providing customary discussion of recent developments or quarter-end “flash” numbers) and (ix) using best efforts to cause RSP and RSP TW’s independent auditors to cooperate in connection with the financing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstance will RSP, RSP-TW or any Seller Party be required to authorize the pre-filing of any financing statements or other documents that create Liens.

(d) Any investigation or due diligence conducted pursuant to the access contemplated by this Section 5.8 shall be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the business of RSP or RSP-TW or damage or destroy any property or assets of RSP or RSP-TW. All information obtained by either Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5.8 shall be held confidential in accordance with that certain Confidentiality Letter, dated November 7, 2013, by and between REL and Purchaser Parent or that certain Memorandum of Understanding, dated May 2, 2014, by and among REL, RSP, Purchaser Parent, Sharp, and Powerchip, as applicable (the “Confidentiality Agreements”); provided, that nothing herein or in the Confidentiality Agreements shall prevent either Purchaser or the Financing Sources from using all information obtained pursuant to this Section 5.8 as necessary and appropriate to consummate the Financing.

5.9 Transfer of Assets. Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, each Seller shall transfer and shall cause its Affiliates to transfer, as applicable, to RSP and RSP-TW the Intellectual Property and tangible assets indicated opposite such Seller’s or Affiliate’s name on Schedule 5.9. Any transfers of Intellectual Property pursuant to this Section 5.9 will be documented by a written assignment agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchaser Parent. RSP or RSP-TW shall pay, prior to the Closing Date, any and all transfer expenses, if any, incurred in connection with the transfer of the Intellectual Property and tangible assets pursuant to this Section 5.9.

5.10 Termination of Certain Agreements; Amendment of Certain Agreements. On or before the Closing Date, each Seller Party shall terminate the agreements listed on Schedule 5.10(a) opposite such Seller Party’s name. On or before the Closing Date, each Seller Party shall amend the agreements and the other documents listed on Schedule 5.10(b) opposite such Seller Party’s name in a manner acceptable to Purchaser Parent.

(a) Designated Employees. The Parties agree and acknowledge that the individual employees of REL (or an Affiliate of REL, including Renesas Solutions Corp. and Renesas System Design Co., Ltd.) (i) who have been seconded to RSP or RSP-TW as of the Effective Date and are listed on Schedule 5.11(a) (the “Relevant Secondees”), or (ii) who are agreed by Purchaser Parent and REL in writing at any time prior to Closing ((A) and (B) collectively, the “Relevant Employees” and together with the Relevant Secondees, the “Designated Employees”) are, subject to the consent of such Designated Employees, to resign from such Seller (or Affiliate) effective as of the date immediately preceding the Closing Date and be employed by RSP or RSP-TW, as applicable, effective as of the Closing Date. For the purpose set forth in the preceding sentence, the Seller Parties will (a) cause RSP or RSP-TW, as applicable, to make a binding offer of employment prepared by Purchaser Parent to each Designated Employee prior to the Closing and (b) employ best efforts to cause such Designated Employee to accept the offer from RSP or RSP-TW, as applicable. The offer of employment to be made to each Designated Employee in accordance with the immediately preceding item must be in accordance with the following arrangements:

(i) no trial period (shiyou kikan) is to apply to the employment by RSP of such Designated Employee, except for an employee who on the Closing Date is in the period of trial;

(ii) each Designated Employee’s pre-transfer number of years of employment with such Seller (or Seller’s Affiliates) and other factors to calculate the amount of accrued vacation days are to be maintained at RSP. For the avoidance of doubt, the number of years of employment with a Seller (or Seller’s Affiliates) is maintained at RSP only for the calculation of the amount of accrued vacation days and, in connection with any retirement allowance (taishoku ichiji kin), the number of years of employment with a Seller (or Seller’s Affiliates) shall not be maintained;

(iii) the overall compensation package (which may include components such as base salary, cash incentive compensation, paid time off, retirement or pension benefits and health insurance benefits, collectively, a “Compensation Package”) offered to each Designated Employee shall not be less favorable in the aggregate than the Compensation Package that such Designated Employee was entitled to receive from the applicable Seller (or, if applicable, the Affiliate of such Seller) employing such Designated Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, provided that the individual components of such Compensation Package offered may differ, in its sole discretion of the Purchaser Parent, from the individual components of a Compensation Package that such Designated Employee was entitled to receive from the applicable Seller (or, if applicable, the Affiliate of such Seller) employing such Designated Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date; and

(iv) each Designated Employee shall agree to the internal work rules of RSP, in form and substance acceptable to Purchaser Parent in its sole discretion.

The Parties will employ their respective best efforts to ensure that as of the Closing all of the Designated Employees and the RSP-TW Employees listed on Schedule 5.11(a) shall become or remain, as applicable, employees of RSP and RSP-TW (provided that, in employing such best efforts, Purchasers are not required to agree to any variation in any compensation term for any Designated Employee or RSP-TW Employee). Between the Effective Date and the Closing Date, Purchasers shall be entitled to meet with and interview any Designated Employee to discuss such Designated Employee’s rights, benefit package, retention package, and other compensation as well as the proposed employment responsibilities, as applicable, of such Designated Employee after the Closing; provided, however, that Purchasers will consult with REL prior to meeting with any Designated Employee.

(b) Lump-Sum Retirement Allowance, Old-Aged Pension, Etc. Each Seller shall (and, as applicable, shall cause its Affiliates to) (i) pay out to each Designated Employee who resigns from such Seller (or, as applicable, such Affiliate) and accepts employment with RSP, RSP-TW or an Affiliate of Purchaser Parent in accordance with the foregoing Section 5.11(a) his or her accrued lump-sum retirement allowance (taishoku ichiji kin) as of the Closing Date, and (ii) satisfy any and all obligations to maintain, fully fund and make payments incurred in connection with employment prior to the Closing for the benefit of such Designated Employee under any old-aged pension (rourei kyuufu kin) or bereaved family pension (izoku kyuufu kin) and (iii) pay all other benefits that such Designated Employee has accrued prior to or upon resigning from such Seller (or, as applicable, such Affiliate), in accordance with the terms of any such pension plan or other work rules in effect as of the date when such Designated Employee resigns from such Seller (or, as applicable, such Affiliate).

(c) No Other Obligations. Nothing contained in this Section 5.11 shall (x) be treated as an amendment of any particular Employee Benefit Plan, (y) give any third party any right to enforce or confer upon the applicability of the provisions of this Section 5.11 or (z) obligate Purchaser Parent to (A) maintain any particular Employee Benefit Plan or (B) retain the employment of any particular Designated Employee.

(d) Work Rules. The Parties will use their respective best efforts to cause the internal work rules of RSP to be amended, prior to the Closing, to the form designated by Purchaser Parent in its sole discretion.

5.12 Business Relationships. Prior to and for one year after the Closing, each Seller Party and its Affiliates shall use their respective best efforts to cooperate with Purchasers in Purchasers’ efforts to continue and maintain for the benefit of Purchasers, RSP and RSP-TW, those business relationships of RSP and RSP-TW existing prior to the Closing, including relationships with customers, suppliers and others.

5.13 Required Financial Statements. RSP and the Sellers shall prepare and deliver the Required Financial Statements to Purchaser Parent as soon as possible after the Effective Date (but no later than the date that is 10 Business Days prior to the Closing Date). The Sellers will cause the Required Financial Statements (i) to be prepared with due care, (ii) to be consistent with the books and records of RSP and RSP-TW, (iii) to present a reasonable view of the financial position of RSP and RSP-TW at the date of the Required Financial Statements and the profit and loss of RSP and RSP-TW for the periods to which the Required Financial Statements relate, and (iv) to be prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied and to incorporate the guidance of Section 1065.3 of the Financial Reporting Manual of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and Topic 1.B.1. of the Staff Accounting Bulletins of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 9.2(e) in the event that the Transactions are not consummated, each Party will be responsible for its own expenses and costs that it incurs with respect to the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement. In the event that the Transactions are consummated, each Party will be responsible for its own expenses and costs that it incurs with respect to the negotiation, execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, provided that the Sellers will be responsible for all unpaid fees and expenses incurred by or on behalf of RSP or RSP-TW in connection with the Transactions (except as specifically provided in this Agreement), including:

(i) all legal, accounting, financial advisory, consulting, finders’ and all other fees and expenses of Third Parties incurred by RSP or RSP-TW in connection with the negotiation and effectuation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Transactions contemplated hereby (including the costs of preparation of the Required Financial Statements and any fees associated with obtaining Antitrust Clearance);

(ii) termination fees, pre-payment fees, balloon payment fees or similar payment fees on payments on any outstanding debt prior to the Closing;

(iii) any severance, bonus, termination, release, or similar change-in-control payments to employees, Designated Employees, Contractors or other service providers payable by RSP or RSP-TW pursuant to a Contract entered into by RSP or RSP-TW before the Closing and RSP’s or RSP-TW’s share of the payroll and employment-related Taxes due in respect thereof;

(vi) any payments in connection with any change in control obligations or any payment or consideration arising under any Required Consents, including any Consent Fees (collectively with the fees, expenses and payments described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), and (v) above, the “Third Party Expenses”).

5.15 Termination of Liens. The Seller Parties will cause all Liens on assets (except for REL Inventory, which shall have all Liens released in accordance with the Transition Services Agreement and the Manufacturing Services Agreement) of RSP and RSP-TW to be released prior to or simultaneously with the Closing.

(a) Prior to the Inventory Transfer Date, REL will deliver to Purchaser Parent, (i) an Inventory Report as of May 31, 2014 on June 17, 2014; (ii) on a monthly basis, an Inventory Report with the first Inventory Report after the Effective Date to be delivered by July 5, 2014 and each following Inventory Report to be delivered within three Business Days from the beginning of each month; provided that if any information required by such Inventory Report cannot reasonably be provided in such time frame, Purchaser Parent and REL shall discuss the timing for the delivery of such information; and (iii) on a weekly basis, a Weekly Inventory Movement Report with the first Weekly Inventory Movement Report to be delivered by June 17, 2014.

(b) During the period from the Effective Date until the Closing Date, RSP shall consult with and obtain the consent of Purchaser Parent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, prior to placing any purchase order with a supplier or building or taking any substantial steps to build any REL Inventory, in either case with respect to any customer order in excess of JPY50,000,000 for (i) any custom product for which there is no backlog or sales forecast from a customer, or (ii) any non-custom product for which there is no sales forecast from a customer. Purchaser Parent will be deemed to have given consent to RSP’s written request for such consent if Purchaser Parent does not respond in twenty four hours from the receipt of such written request. Until the earlier of the termination of this Agreement and the Inventory Transfer Date, REL will, and will cause the officers, counsel or other Representatives of REL to, promptly notify Purchaser Parent of, and to consult from time to time as requested by Purchaser Parent regarding, any material changes or developments in the composition or volume of REL Inventory.

(c) During the period from the Effective Date until the Inventory Transfer Date, REL will take all reasonable steps to preserve and protect the REL Inventory in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted.

(d) During the period from the Effective Date until the Inventory Transfer Date, REL will permit Representatives of Purchaser Parent (including legal counsel and accountants) to have reasonable access at all reasonable times after receiving reasonable advance notice from Purchaser Parent, and in a manner so as not to interfere with the normal business operations of REL, to all premises, properties, personnel, books, records (including Tax records and employment records), contracts, and documents of or pertaining to the REL Inventory, including as may be necessary for Purchaser Parent to verify whether any REL Inventory is obsolete, damaged or unsellable; provided, that REL may restrict or otherwise prohibit access to any documents or information of or relating to REL to the extent REL determines in good faith that any applicable Law or any contracts requires it to do so.

(a) From the Effective Date through the Closing Date, RSP will and the Sellers will cause RSP to hold in bank accounts or other financial accounts an aggregate Cash balance on a consolidated basis with RSP-TW (the “RSP Cash Balance”) of no less than JPY5,000,000,000 (the “Cash Floor”). Cash deposits, including all accrued but unpaid interest, under the Cash Deposit Agreements will not be deemed Cash of RSP for purposes of determining whether the Cash Floor is satisfied.

(b) If, from time to time following the Effective Date, the RSP Cash Balance exceeds JPY8,000,000,000 (the “Cash Ceiling”), RSP may, and the Sellers may cause RSP to, reduce the RSP Cash Balance to an amount less than the Cash Ceiling by using RSP’s excess Cash over the Cash Ceiling (i) as consideration to pay for any transfers of Intellectual Property or tangible assets to RSP and RSP-TW pursuant to Section 5.9 or (ii) to pay for any license fee by RSP prior to Closing to a Seller related to any Ancillary Agreement or the Transactions, provided in each case that any such action will not cause the RSP Cash Balance to fall below the Cash Floor. Cash deposits, including all accrued but unpaid interest, under the Cash Deposit Agreements will not be deemed Cash of RSP for purposes of determining whether the Cash Ceiling is satisfied.

(c) If the Estimated Closing Cash Balance exceeds the Cash Ceiling (any excess amount of the Estimated Closing Cash Balance over the Cash Ceiling, the “Share Repurchase Cap Amount”), then RSP shall, and the Sellers shall cause RSP to, repurchase RSP Target Shares held by REL and Sharp on a pro rata basis (determined by reference to REL’s and Sharp’s respective percentage ownership interest of RSP) (such repurchase of shares of RSP common stock, the “Share Repurchase”) in an amount up to, but not exceeding, the Share Repurchase Cap Amount. The consideration per RSP Target Share held by REL and Sharp to be paid for any Share Repurchase shall be the Purchase Price per RSP common stock calculated under Section 2.2 based on the Estimated Statement, assuming that the applicable Share Repurchase had not occurred. The payment for the Share Repurchase from RSP to REL and Sharp, and the transfer of the RSP Target Shares subject to the Share Repurchase from REL or Sharp to RSP, shall be made immediately prior to the Closing.

(a) In case at any time after the Closing any further action is necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to consummate the Transactions, each of the Parties shall take such further action (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and documents) as another Party reasonably may request.

(b) Without limiting Section 6.1(a), if, during the 230 day period after the Closing, Purchaser Parent determines in good faith that any asset should have been transferred to RSP or RSP-TW prior to the Closing pursuant to Section 5.9 (but was not so transferred), Purchaser Parent shall notify the applicable Seller. Upon receipt of any such notification, the applicable Seller shall (and, as applicable, shall cause its Affiliate to) consider promptly, reasonably and in good faith whether such asset should have been transferred pursuant to Section 5.9. Upon such Seller’s agreement that the asset in question should have been so transferred, the Seller or Affiliate of a Seller, as applicable, owning such asset shall promptly, without payment of further consideration by any Purchaser, RSP or RSP-TW, transfer and assign such asset to RSP or RSP-TW (as applicable), which assignment shall be deemed to have been effective as of the Closing. If Purchaser Parent and such Seller are unable to agree on whether an asset should be assigned under this Section 6.1(b), such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 10.11. In addition, prior to the Closing, Purchaser Parent may notify a Seller of its determination that any such asset should have been included on Schedule 5.9, and the applicable Seller and the Purchaser Parent shall discuss in good faith, where any dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 10.11 in the case that Purchaser Parent and such Seller are unable to reach any agreement on this regard.

(c) If reasonably requested by Purchaser Parent, the Sellers will use their best efforts to provide assistance to the Purchasers and RSP or RSP-TW prior to and after Closing, as applicable, to enter into a Contract with the counterparty to any Retained Contract identified by Purchasers to replace such Retained Contract for the benefit of the Business.

(d) Prior to and after the Closing, REL shall use its best effort and cooperate with Purchaser Parent and its Subsidiaries in obtaining licenses pursuant to the applicable provision under the certain Contract set forth in Schedule 6.1(d); provided, however, that neither REL nor its Subsidiaries will be required to make any out-of-pocket expenditures or grant any additional license to any of its Intellectual Property with the counterparty in respect of such efforts and cooperation.

(a) Access. Purchasers shall ensure that, following Closing, each Seller and its Representatives (including such Seller’s accountants and financial advisors bound to obligations of confidentiality), are afforded such access (including the taking of copies) to the books and records, working papers and other financial information of RSP and RSP-TW as it or they may reasonably require to enable such Seller (or any of such Seller’s Affiliates) (i) to prepare its respective statutory, management or similar accounts; or (ii) for any other accounting, taxation or other corporate purpose required by applicable Law, Governmental Entity or recognized stock exchange to whose rules such Seller (or, as the case may be, such Seller’s Affiliates) is subject.

(b) Maintenance. For a period of seven years following the Closing, or such longer period as may be required by applicable Law or necessitated by applicable statutes of limitations, Purchasers shall, and shall cause RSP and RSP-TW to, maintain all books and records of RSP and RSP-TW in the jurisdiction in which such books and records were located prior to the Closing Date and may not destroy or dispose of any such books and records. On and after the end of such period, Purchasers shall, and shall cause RSP and RSP-TW to, provide each Seller with at least 10 Business Days prior written notice before destroying any such books and records, during which period such Seller may elect to take copies, at its own expense, of such books and records.

(c) Retention. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Sellers may retain copies of all books and records of RSP and RSP-TW that relate to the period before the Closing Date and are necessary to enable such Seller to comply with its legal obligations (including those relating to Tax) arising after Closing.

6.3 Pre-Closing Directors and Auditors. At the Closing, Purchasers shall cause RSP and RSP-TW, as applicable, to accept the resignations, effective as of the Closing Date, of each director, officer and statutory auditor of Target, RSP-TW, or both, who is or has been in office at any time up to the Closing and who will not be continuing in such capacities following the Closing as set forth on Schedule 6.3 (collectively, the “Pre-Closing Directors and Auditors”). Purchasers may not, directly or indirectly, and shall cause RSP and RSP-TW following the Closing to not, make, initiate or threaten to make or initiate any claim against, or seek any indemnification from, any Pre-Closing Director or Auditor with respect to the execution of their duties up to the termination of their appointment except for in case such claim or indemnification arises from fraud, intentional misrepresentation, wilful misconduct or gross negligence of the Pre-Closing Director or Auditor.

6.4 Non-Competition. For all purposes of and under this Agreement, the following capitalized terms shall have the following respective meanings:

(a) “Competing Business” means the design, development, manufacture, testing, marketing, supporting, maintaining, distributing, provisioning and selling of any Competing Products.

(b) “Competing Products” means any display driver integrated circuit or any integrated touch/display driver for the use of LCD panel manufacturers in their manufacture of LCD panels for use in smart phones, tablets, e-books, portable gaming devices, wearables, notebook computers, and automotive applications.

Each Seller acknowledges and agrees that RSP, RSP-TW, and Purchasers would be irreparably damaged if such Seller or any of its Subsidiaries were to provide services to or otherwise participate in a Competing Business in violation of this Section 6.4 and that any such competition by such Seller (or its Subsidiaries) would result in a significant loss of goodwill by RSP, RSP-TW, and Purchasers. Each Seller further acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and agreements set forth in this Section 6.4 were a material inducement to Purchasers to enter into this Agreement and to perform their obligations hereunder, and that Purchasers would not obtain the benefit of the bargain set forth in this Agreement as specifically negotiated by the Parties if such Seller or its Subsidiaries breached the provisions of this Section 6.4. Therefore, each Seller agrees, in further consideration of the amounts to be paid hereunder for the Target Shares that, except with the prior written consent of Purchaser Parent, which consent may be withheld by Purchaser Parent (for any reason or no reason) until the second anniversary of the Closing Date, such Seller and its Subsidiaries shall not, directly or indirectly, engage in, conduct, manage, operate, own, control or participate in the management of a Competing Business in the Competing Territory or any portion thereof, other than as set forth on Schedule 6.4. Each Seller acknowledges that the business of RSP and RSP-TW has been conducted or is presently proposed to be conducted throughout the Competing Territory and that the geographic restrictions set forth above are reasonable and necessary to protect the value of the Target Shares sold by Sellers pursuant to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.4, REL, Sharp and their Subsidiaries are not prohibited from acquiring or owning all or any portion of the equity or other ownership interests in any Person which primarily engages in, and generates more than 90% of its sales from, a business other than Competing Business.

6.5 Non-Solicitation. Until the second anniversary of the Closing Date, no Seller may, directly or through any Affiliates, solicit or hire any officer, director or employee of RSP or RSP-TW, or any officer, director or employee of Purchaser Parent, Purchaser Sub, or any of their Affiliates who is involved in the discussion, negotiation or other communication with either Seller, RSP or RSP-TW in connection with the Transactions. Neither Purchaser may, directly or through any of its Affiliates, solicit or hire any officer, director or employee of any Seller who is involved in the discussion, negotiation or other communication with RSP, RSP-TW, Purchaser Parent or Purchaser Sub in connection with the Transactions. For purposes of this Section 6.5, the term “solicit” does not include generalized searches for employees through media advertisements or employment firms. Purchaser Parent shall not offer employment to any employee of [*****] during the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the [*****] of the Closing Date; provided that Purchaser Parent shall be permitted to so offer employment during the period that begins the day that is [*****] before the [*****] of the Closing Date and ends [*****] thereafter.

6.6 Severability. If, at the time of enforcement of the covenants contained in Section 6.4 and Section 6.5, a court holds that the duration, scope or area restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, the Parties agree that the maximum duration, scope or area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated duration, scope or area and that the court shall be allowed and directed to revise the restrictions contained herein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by applicable Law. Each Seller has consulted with legal counsel regarding the foregoing covenants in Section 6.4 and Section 6.5, and based on such consultation has determined and hereby acknowledges that such covenants are reasonable in terms of duration, scope and area restrictions and are necessary to protect the value of the Target Shares sold by Sellers pursuant to this Agreement and the substantial investment made by Purchasers.

6.7 Settlements After the Closing. After the Closing, Sellers shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, as promptly as practicable, deliver, and if necessary endorse over to RSP or RSP-TW (as applicable), any Cash, checks or other instruments of payment such Seller or any of its Affiliates receives that are owed or attributable to RSP or RSP-TW and shall hold such Cash, checks or other instruments of payment in trust for RSP or RSP-TW (as applicable) until such delivery. After the Closing, Purchaser Parent shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, as promptly as practicable, deliver, and if necessary endorse over to the appropriate Seller, any Cash, checks or other instruments of payment that Purchaser Parent or any of its Affiliates receives that are owed or attributable to a Seller and shall hold such Cash, checks or other instruments of payment in trust for such Seller until such delivery.

6.8 Cooperation in Tax Matters, Tax Audits and Proceedings. After the Closing for a period of seven years, each Seller shall fully cooperate with each of RSP and RSP-TW in connection with preparation and filing of any Tax Return regarding taxable periods that ended before the Closing and the taxable period that includes the Closing Date. Further, each Seller shall reasonably cooperate with each of RSP and RSP-TW in connection with all other Tax matters, including communication with a Tax authority, handling a Tax audit and defense against Tax disputes with respect to taxable periods that ended before the Closing and the taxable period that includes the Closing Date.

(a) Closing Date Inventory Report. Not later than three Business Day after the Closing Date, REL will deliver to Purchaser Parent an Inventory Report as of the Closing Date for the Closing REL Inventory reflecting the historical book value of such Closing REL Inventory as reflected on REL’s accounts (collectively, the “Closing Date Inventory Report”).

(b) Obsolete REL Inventory. If Purchaser Parent does not deliver to REL a written objection to the list of items of the REL Inventory that is reported to be Obsolete REL Inventory in the Closing Date Inventory Report based on the Sales Forecast included in the Closing Date Inventory Report within five Business Days of the delivery of the Closing Date Inventory Report, then such list will be deemed to be the final determination of Obsolete REL Inventory. If Purchaser Parent does deliver such a written objection within such time period, then Purchaser Parent and REL will discuss and attempt to resolve such objections in good faith. If Purchaser Parent and REL are unable to resolve such objections within 10 Business Days, then either Purchaser Parent or REL may submit such objections for resolution in accordance with the arbitration provisions of Section 10.11. Upon final resolution of all objections pursuant to this Section 6.9(b), such list (incorporating the resolution of any such objections) shall be deemed to be the final determination of Obsolete REL Inventory for purposes of this Section 6.9.

(c) Revised Closing REL Inventory Valuation. Not later than 20 calendar days after the Closing Date, REL will deliver to Purchaser Parent (i) an updated Closing Date Inventory Report with only an updated statement of the aggregate book value (calculated based on Japanese GAAP) of the Closing REL Inventory as of the Closing Date, and specifically identifying any variations from the Closing Date Inventory Report (collectively, the “Revised Closing Date Inventory Report”). If Purchaser Parent does not deliver to REL a written objection to any components of the Revised Closing Date Inventory Report within 15 calendar days of REL’s delivery of the Revised Closing Date Inventory Report, then the value attributed to an item of Closing REL Inventory in the Revised Closing Date Inventory Report will be deemed to be the final determination of the value of such item of Closing REL Inventory. If Purchaser Parent does deliver such a written objection within such time period, then Purchaser Parent and REL will discuss and attempt to resolve such objections in good faith. If Purchaser Parent and REL are unable to resolve such objections within 10 Business Days, then either Purchaser Parent or REL may submit such objections for resolution in accordance with the arbitration provisions of Section 10.11. Upon final resolution of all objections pursuant to this Section 6.9(c), the Revised Closing Date Inventory Report (incorporating the resolution of any such objections) shall be deemed to contain the final value of each item of Closing REL Inventory for purposes of this Section 6.9 (for each item of Closing REL Inventory, the “Final Closing REL Inventory Value”).

(i) Prior to Inventory Transfer Date. After the Closing Date and prior to the Inventory Transfer Date, RSP may purchase Closing REL Inventory, in accordance with the purchase flow under the Manufacturing Services Agreement. The price to be paid by RSP for any purchases of an item of the Closing REL Inventory will be at a price determined pursuant to the Manufacturing Services Agreement.

(ii) Purchase of Closing REL Inventory on Inventory Transfer Date. On the Inventory Transfer Date, RSP shall purchase from REL (i) all Closing REL Inventory then held by REL that is not Obsolete REL Inventory or damaged, (ii) up to JPY[*****] of Obsolete REL Inventory (with the specific items of such Obsolete REL Inventory as designated by Purchaser Parent), and (iii) up to JPY[*****] of Obsolete REL Inventory from the RSP products listed on Schedule 6.9(d) (with the specific items of such Obsolete REL Inventory as designated by Purchaser Parent). Notwithstanding the foregoing, RSP shall have no obligation to purchase any Closing REL Inventory pursuant to the preceding sentence until such Closing REL Inventory is in finished goods form. Any Closing REL Inventory that is work in process form on the Inventory Transfer Date that RSP is obligated to purchaser under this Section 6.9(d)(ii) (the “WIP Closing REL Inventory”) shall be purchased by RSP no later than the date that is the later of (A) 30 days after the Inventory Transfer Date and (B) the date that all WIP Closing REL Inventory is converted to finished goods. In the event that no final determination of the Obsolete REL Inventory pursuant to Section 6.9(b) has been made as of the Inventory Transfer Date, RSP shall not be required to purchase any Closing REL Inventory as to which a dispute under Section 6.9(b) has not yet been resolved, but shall purchase any such Closing REL Inventory in accordance with this Section 6.9(d) to the extent that such Closing REL Inventory is thereafter determined not to be Obsolete REL Inventory promptly following such final determination in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, RSP shall be entitled to reject and return to REL, and shall not be required to accept, purchase or pay for, any item of Closing REL Inventory that RSP reasonably determines to be damaged or otherwise unsellable. The purchase price for each item of Closing REL Inventory purchased by RSP on the Inventory Transfer Date shall be the Final Closing REL Inventory Value determined pursuant to Section 6.9(c); provided, however, that if the Final Closing REL Inventory Value has not been finally determined under Section 6.9(c) as of the Inventory Transfer Date, the purchase price shall be the value attributed to such item of Closing REL Inventory in the Closing Date Inventory Report.

(iii) Payment of Purchase Price. The purchase price to be paid for the purchase of any Closing REL Inventory shall initially be paid by RSP to REL via a deduction from the cash deposits of RSP held by REL under the Cash Deposit Agreements, unless otherwise requested by RSP. No additional service or other fees shall be assessed or due in connection with such payment.

(iv) Additional Terms of Sale. The terms of Sections 5.3 (Delivery and Inspection), 7 (No License), 8 (Quality; Liability; Warranty), 10 (Force Majeure), 11(Export Control) and 12 (Confidentiality) of the Manufacturing Services Agreement shall apply to the purchase and sale of any Closing REL Inventory under this Agreement, mutatis mutandis. The sale of the Closing REL Inventory pursuant to this Section 6.9 will be documented in accordance with reasonable past practice in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchaser Parent.

(e) Closing REL Inventory Purchase Price Adjustment. Within 2 Business Days of the date that is the later of (i) the Inventory Transfer Date and (ii) the final determination of the Final Closing REL Inventory Value pursuant to Section 6.9(c), (A) if (X) minus (Y) is positive, REL will pay to RSP, or (B) if (X) minus (Y) is negative, RSP will pay to REL, in immediately available cash funds to an account designated by RSP or REL, as applicable , the difference (if any) between (X) the aggregate purchase price of the Closing REL Inventory purchased by RSP from REL after the Closing Date (including all Closing REL Inventory purchased pursuant to Section 6.9(d)) that was actually paid by RSP in accordance with this Section 6.9 and (Y) the aggregate value of the Closing REL Inventory purchased by RSP from REL after the Closing Date (including all Closing REL Inventory purchased pursuant to Section 6.9(d)) calculated using a purchase price equal to the Final Closing REL Inventory Value for each item of Closing REL Inventory as determined in accordance with Section 6.9(c).

6.10 Post-Closing Employment Matters. After the Closing, Purchasers shall cause RSP and RSP-TW to comply, in all material respects, with applicable employment Laws with respect to the Designated Employees who become employees of RSP.

6.11 Secondment from RSP to REL. After the Closing and for a period to be agreed between Purchaser Parent and REL (but that will not exceed one year), certain employees of RSP will be seconded to REL. The employees of RSP to be so seconded will be persons primarily engaged in one of the job functions set out on Schedule 6.11 and the number of such Secondees (by job function) will not be greater than the number specified with respect to such job function on Schedule 6.11. During the applicable period of secondment, the salaries and other employment benefits of such employees will be paid by RSP, and REL shall not charge RSP any amounts in respect of such employees’ services (whether under the Transition Services Agreement or otherwise). Each such employee will devote all of their work time to servicing RSP.

(a) After the Closing, Purchasers shall, and shall cause RSP and RSP-TW to, continue to supply existing models of display driver integrated circuits or any integrated touch/display drivers, develop and supply the future models, and provide technical and/or quality supports for both the existing and future models on terms [*****].

(g) REL shall have received written consent to the sale and transfer of the REL-Owned Shares to Purchaser Sub pursuant to this Agreement from (i) all of the syndicated lenders under the Loan Agreement, dated as of September 11, 2013, by and among REL, The Bank of Tokyo, Mitsubishi-UFJ, Ltd., Mizuho Bank, Ltd., Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank, Limited and Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation, (ii) NEC Corporation under the Loan Agreement, dated as of September 11, 2013, by and between REL and NEC Corporation, (iii) Hitachi, Ltd. under the Loan Agreement, dated as of September 11, 2013, by and between REL and Hitachi, Ltd., and (iv) Mitsubishi Electric Corporation under the Loan Agreement, dated as of September 11, 2013, by and between REL and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (collectively, the “REL Bank Consents”);

(h) Powerchip shall have received all written consents to the sale and transfer of the PTC-Owned Shares to Purchaser Sub pursuant to this Agreement that are required to be obtained under various syndication credit agreements (last amended as of March 22, 2013) by and among Powerchip, Hua Nan Commercial Bank, Mega International Commercial Bank, Cathay United Bank and other financial institutions named therein (collectively, the “PTC Bank Consents”); and

(i) each Purchaser must have delivered to RSP a certificate of the secretary of such Purchaser dated the Closing Date certifying that attached thereto are true and complete copies of all resolutions adopted by the board of directors of such Purchaser authorizing the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and that all such resolutions are in full force and effect and are all the resolutions adopted in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

7.3 Mutual Discussion on Key Employees Matters. If either condition set forth in Section 7.1(l) or (m) has not been satisfied or is not expected to be satisfied, the Parties shall discuss in good faith any possibility to consummate the Transactions, including discussing the waiver of such conditions.

8.1 Survival. All of the Seller Fundamental Representations will survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect until the date that is 18 months from and after the Closing Date (the “Fundamental Expiration Date”). All other representations and warranties of the Sellers will survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect for a period of one year from and after the Closing Date (the “Basic Expiration Date”). Each covenant and obligation in this Agreement and any document or instrument contemplated hereunder will survive the Closing until its respective statute of limitation. The right to indemnification, payment of damages or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations will not be affected by any investigation conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or compliance, with, any such presentation, warranty, covenants, or obligation. The waiver of any condition based on the accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, does not affect the right to indemnification, payment of damages, or other remedy based on such representations, warranties, covenants, and obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if a Claim Notice relating to any representation or warranty of a Seller Party in this Agreement is given to the Indemnifying Representative on or prior to the Basic Expiration Date or the Fundamental Expiration Date (as applicable), then the claim(s) asserted in such Claim Notice and the representation or warranty that is the subject of such Claim Notice shall survive the Basic Expiration Date or the Fundamental Expiration Date (as applicable) until such time as such claim is (or claims are) fully and finally resolved. The indemnification obligations of the Sellers set forth in Sections 8.2(e) and 8.2(f) will survive the Closing and continue in full force and effect until the date that is 18 months from and after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing herein in this Agreement will (i) prevent any Purchaser Indemnitee from bringing a Proceeding for fraud or intentional misrepresentation against any Person, including any Seller Party, whose fraud or intentional misrepresentation has caused such Purchaser Indemnitee to incur Losses or has limited the Losses recoverable by such Purchaser Indemnitee in such Proceeding, or (ii) limit the Losses recoverable by such Purchaser Indemnitee in any such Proceeding. Any representation or warranty made by or on behalf of any Seller Parties in or pursuant to this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement that a Purchaser Indemnitee asserts was breached as a result of the fraud or intentional misrepresentation alleged in a Proceeding by the Purchaser Indemnitee will survive the expiration of the applicable survival period set forth in this Section 8.1 and remain in full force and effect until the final resolution of the Proceeding. All representations and warranties of Purchasers will survive only until the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement.

8.2 Indemnification by Sellers. From and after the Closing Date (but subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII), the Sellers shall indemnify each of the Purchaser Indemnitees against any loss, Liability, damage, claim, suit, settlement, diminution in value, royalty, judgment, award, fines, penalties, Proceedings, assessments, cost of mitigation, cost of defense, fee (including any legal fee, expert fee, investigation fee, accounting fee or advisory fee), cost or expense, and including without limitation all indirect, incidental or consequential damages (collectively, “Losses”) that are incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnitees and that arise from:

(a) any failure of any representation, warranty or certification made by any Seller Party in this Agreement, the Seller Disclosure Schedule, any exhibit or schedule to this Agreement, or any certificate or other document required to be delivered to either or both Purchasers in accordance with this Agreement to be true and correct on the date hereof and on the Closing Date as if made on such date,

(b) any breach of any covenant or obligation of any Seller Party contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (with respect to RSP or RSP-TW, any such breach prior to the Closing);

(c) any (i) claim for indemnification by any current or former director, supervisor, manager, officer, employee or Contractor of RSP or RSP-TW (including any Designated Employees) arising out of facts or circumstances existing on or prior to the Closing or (ii) Liabilities related to any current, former or prospective directors, supervisors, managers, employees or Contractors of RSP or RSP-TW (including any Designated Employees) which are based on acts or omissions by the Seller Parties that occurred prior to the Closing (including, in each case, Liabilities, claims or actions arising out of the authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the performance by RSP or RSP-TW of their obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions);

(d) any violation by RSP or RSP-TW of any bribery or anti-corruption Laws prior to the Closing;

(e) any amount by which the actual Closing Third Party Expenses exceeds the Final Third Party Expenses;

(f) any amount by which the actual Closing Company Indebtedness exceeds the Final Company Indebtedness; or

(g) any fraud, intentional misrepresentation, willful misconduct, or gross negligence of any Seller Party.

When determining the existence of any breach of, inaccuracy in or failure of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement given or made by any Seller Party, or when determining the amount of Losses suffered by a Purchaser Indemnitee as a result of any breach of, inaccuracy in or failure of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement given or made by any Seller Party, in either case that is qualified or limited in scope as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect (or similar concepts), such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall be deemed to be made or given without such qualification or limitation.

(a) The Sellers shall not be required to make any indemnification payment pursuant to Section 8.2(a) or with respect to any breach by any Seller Party of the covenant contained in the second sentence of Section 5.8(c) for any individual failure of a representation or warranty to be true and correct where the Loss relating to such individual failure is less than JPY5,000,000 (the “Per Claim Threshold”). Losses relating to separate claims that arise from an individual failure of a representation or warranty to be true and correct will be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the Per Claim Threshold is satisfied if the separate claims arise from the same or substantially similar facts or circumstances.

(b) The Sellers shall not be required to make any indemnification payment pursuant to Section 8.2(a) or with respect to any breach by any Seller Party of the covenant contained in the second sentence of Section 5.8(c) until such time as the total amount of all Losses that have been incurred by any one or more of the Purchaser Indemnitees and with respect to which any indemnification payment would otherwise be available to the Purchaser Indemnitees pursuant to such section, exceeds an aggregate of JPY500,000,000 (the “Deductible Amount”), except that the Purchaser Indemnitees will be entitled to recover for, and the Deductible Amount will not apply to, any Losses with respect to any breach of or inaccuracy in any Seller Fundamental Representation (other than Seller Fundamental Representations set forth in Schedule 3.2(l) (Intellectual Property)). Once the Deductible Amount has been exceeded, the Purchaser Indemnitees shall be entitled to be indemnified against all Losses in excess of the Deductible Amount.

(c) The maximum amount of indemnifiable Losses that may be recovered by the Purchaser Indemnitees from the Sellers with respect to the matters described in Section 8.2(a) and with respect to any breach by any Seller Party of the covenant contained in the second sentence of Section 5.8(c) shall be an aggregate amount equal to the Indemnification Holdback Amount.

(d) The limitations on the indemnification obligations of the Sellers set forth in Sections 8.3(a), 8.3(b) and 8.3(c) do not apply to any Losses arising from any matter described in Sections 8.2(b) (other than any breach of the covenant contained in the second sentence of Section 5.8(c) by any Seller Party, which is limited by Section 8.3(c) only), (c), (d), (e), (f), or (g).

(e) No Seller will have any right of contribution, right of indemnity or other right or remedy against Purchaser, RSP or RSP-TW in connection with any indemnification obligation or any other liability to which such Seller may become subject under or in connection with this Agreement.

(f) The Purchaser Indemnitees may not recover duplicative amounts in respect of the same Losses from multiple Sellers.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to the representations and warranties made by any Seller pursuant to Section 3.1 (or any certification to the extent related to any such representations and warranties), each Seller shall solely indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees against Losses that are incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnitees and that arise from such Seller’s breach of such representations and warranties (and not with respect to the representations and warranties of any other Seller pursuant to Section 3.1 (or any certification to the extent related to any such representations and warranties)).

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to Losses other than with respect to the representations and warranties made by the Sellers pursuant to Section 3.1 (or any certification to the extent related to any such representations and warranties), each Seller’s liability shall be several and not joint, and the liability of the Sellers therefor shall be apportioned among the Sellers pro rata in proportion to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages.

8.4 Holdback. A Purchaser Indemnitee shall be paid from the Indemnification Holdback Fund the amount of any Loss for which it is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article VIII. So long as any of the Indemnification Holdback Amount remains in the Indemnification Holdback Fund, the Indemnification Holdback Fund shall be the initial source of recovery for any Loss incurred by a Purchaser Indemnitee under Section 8.2 of this Agreement. With respect to any matter described in Sections 8.2(a) (with respect to any Seller Fundamental Representation), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), or (g) a Purchaser Indemnitee may recover all of its Losses (A) first from the Indemnification Holdback Fund, and (B)(1) if the aggregate of all unresolved or unsatisfied claims set forth in all Claim Notices delivered to the Indemnifying Representative prior to the expiration of the Indemnification Holdback Claim Period exceeds the then-existing Indemnification Holdback Fund or (2) after the expiration of the Indemnification Holdback Claim Period, directly from each Seller according to its pro rata proportion (based on the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages) of such Losses, but otherwise without limitation. The period during which claims for indemnification from the Indemnification Holdback Fund may be initiated shall commence on the Closing Date and terminate at 5:00 p.m., Japan Time, on the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date (the “Indemnification Holdback Claim Period”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, on the date of expiration of the Indemnification Holdback Claim Period, such portion of the Indemnification Holdback Fund as may be necessary, in the reasonable judgment of Purchaser Parent, to satisfy any then unresolved or unsatisfied claims for Losses (to the extent specified in any Claims Notice delivered to the Indemnifying Representative prior to the expiration of the Indemnification Holdback Claim Period) shall remain in the Indemnification Holdback Fund until such claims for Losses have been resolved or satisfied in accordance with this Article VIII. Within 10 Business Days after the date of expiration of the Indemnification Holdback Claim Period, the Indemnification Holdback Fund, less any amount determined pursuant to the previous sentence, shall be paid by Purchaser Sub to the Sellers, (i) in the amounts to each Seller as specified in a joint written notice by REL, Sharp and Powerchip delivered to Purchasers within five Business Days after the date of expiration of the Indemnification Holdback Claim Period, if any, or (ii) if no joint written notice is delivered to Purchasers within five Business Days after the date of expiration of the Indemnification Holdback Claim Period, pro rata in proportion to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages. If, upon the expiration of the Indemnification Holdback Claim Period, Purchaser Sub retains any portion of the Indemnification Holdback Fund to satisfy any then unresolved or unsatisfied claims for Losses and such portion of the Indemnification Holdback Fund is not fully exhausted following the final resolution of all such claims for Losses, then Purchaser Sub will deliver any leftover portion of the Indemnification Holdback Fund (any such funds, the “Retained Funds”) to the Sellers pro rata in proportion to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages. Interest will accrue on the Retained Funds starting on the expiration of the Indemnification Holdback Claim Period until the payment of the Retained Funds to the Sellers at a rate per annum equal to the statutory rate of interest in Japan. Purchaser Sub will pay all such accrued interest to the Sellers pro rata in proportion to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages.

(a) Notice. If any third party notifies any Purchaser Indemnitee with respect to any matter (a “Third-Party Claim”) that may give rise to a claim for indemnification against the Sellers under this Article VIII, then the Purchaser Parent shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Representative thereof in writing. No delay in or failure to give such notice by Purchaser Parent to the Indemnifying Representative pursuant to this Section 8.5 will adversely affect any of the other rights or remedies that any Purchaser has under this Agreement or alter or relieve any parties to this Agreement of their obligations pursuant to this Section 8.5, except and to the extent that such delay or failure has materially prejudiced such parties.

(b) Purchasers will provide the Indemnifying Representative the opportunity to participate at the Indemnifying Representative’s own cost in, but not direct or conduct, any defense of any Third-Party Claim. Purchasers will have the right in their sole discretion to settle any such claim; provided, however, that, without the consent of the Indemnifying Representative, no settlement of any such claim with third-party claimants will be determinative of the amount of Losses relating to such matter. If the Indemnifying Representative consents to any such settlement, neither the Indemnifying Representative nor any Seller will have any power or authority to object to the amount or validity of any claim by or on behalf of any Purchaser Indemnitee for indemnity with respect to such settlement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any reasonable costs and expenses of defense and investigation, including court costs and attorneys fees incurred or suffered by the Purchaser Indemnitee in connection with the defense of any third-party claim alleging matters that would constitute a breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty or any other matter specified in Section 8.2, whether or not it is ultimately determined that there was such a breach or inaccuracy, will constitute Losses subject to indemnification under Section 8.2.

8.6 Claims for Indemnification. At any time that a Purchaser Indemnitee desires to claim a Loss (a “Liability Claim”) that it believes is or may be indemnifiable under this Article VIII, Purchaser Parent will deliver a notice of such Liability Claim (a “Claims Notice”) to the Indemnifying Representative. A Claims Notice must (A) be signed by an officer of Purchaser Parent, (B) describe the Liability Claim in reasonable detail and (C) indicate the amount of the Loss that has been or may be paid, suffered, sustained or accrued by the Purchaser Indemnitees. To the extent that the amount of a Loss is not determinable as of the date of delivery of a Claims Notice, Purchaser Parent may deliver a Claims Notice stating the maximum amount of Loss that Purchaser Parent in good faith estimates or anticipates that a Purchaser Indemnitee may pay or suffer; provided, however, that Purchaser Parent’s provision of an estimated or anticipated amount of Loss will not limit the Loss recoverable or recovered by a Purchaser Indemnitee. No delay in or failure to give a Claims Notice by Purchaser Parent to the Indemnifying Representative pursuant to this Section 8.6 will adversely affect any of the other rights or remedies that any Purchaser has under this Agreement or alter or relieve any Parties of their obligations to indemnify the Purchaser Indemnitees pursuant to this Article VIII, except and to the extent that such delay or failure has materially prejudiced such Parties.

(a) The Indemnifying Representative may object to any Liability Claim set forth in such Claims Notice by delivering written notice to Purchaser Parent of such Indemnifying Representative’s objection (an “Objection Notice”). Such Objection Notice must describe the grounds for such objection in reasonable detail.

(b) If an Objection Notice is not delivered by Indemnifying Representative to Purchaser Parent within 30 days after delivery by Purchaser Parent of the Claims Notice, such failure to so object is an irrevocable acknowledgment by each party to this Agreement (including the Indemnifying Representative) that the Purchaser Indemnitees are entitled to indemnification under this Article VIII for the Losses set forth in such Claims Notice.

(c) If the Claims Notice was delivered to the Indemnifying Representative and no Objection Notice was delivered to Purchaser Parent within 30 days of the delivery of the Claims Notice, or an Objection Notice was delivered to the Purchaser Parent within 30 days of the delivery of the Claims Notice, but such Objection Notice was only with respect to a portion of the Losses claimed in the Claims Notice, Purchaser Sub may remove and retain (or deliver to the Purchaser Indemnitee making such claim, as applicable) from the Indemnification Holdback Fund cash having a value equal to (1) the amount of the Losses set forth in such Claims Notice, if no Objection Notice was delivered to Purchaser Parent, or (2) the amount of the portion of the Losses set forth in such Claims Notice to which no objection was made, if an Objection Notice was delivered to Purchaser Parent; provided, however, that, to the extent that the amount of the Losses set forth in the Claims Notice (or portion thereof) is an estimate, Purchaser Sub (on behalf of itself or any other Purchaser Indemnitee) will not be so entitled to remove and retain funds in respect of such portions of such estimated Losses unless and until the amount of such estimated Losses is finally determined; and provided further, however, that if the entire amount then in the Indemnification Holdback Fund is insufficient to cover Losses that have been finally determined in accordance with this Agreement, and recovery directly from one or more Sellers is available hereunder, each Seller will within five Business Days of the determination of such Losses, wire transfer to Purchaser Sub (on behalf of itself and any other Purchaser Indemnitees) its pro rata portion (determined in proportion to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages) of any such shortfall.

(d) Promptly after the receipt of a Claims Notice, Sellers identified in the Claims Notice as Sellers that are responsible to indemnify the Liability Claim shall consult with each other and agree on whether or not to provide an Objection Notice and the content of the Objection Notice. In the event such Sellers fail to reach a mutual agreement in this regard, the Indemnifying Representative shall provide an Objection Notice based on the objection by a Seller that is a farthermost from the Claim Notice and made within 20 days after the delivery of the Claim Notice.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Sellers do not have any individual right to object to any claim made in a Claims Notice under this Article VIII, and, except as aforesaid, any and all claims made in a Claims Notice on behalf of the Purchaser Indemnitees may be objected to only by the Indemnifying Representative.

(a) If an Indemnifying Representative objects in writing to any Liability Claim made in any Claims Notice within 30 days after delivery of such Claims Notice, Indemnifying Representative and Purchaser Parent will attempt in good faith to agree upon the rights of the respective Parties with respect to each such claim. If Indemnifying Representative and Purchaser Parent should so agree, a memorandum setting forth such agreement will be prepared and signed by relevant Parties and (i) Purchaser Sub may remove and retain from the Indemnification Holdback Fund an amount of cash equal to the amount agreed to be delivered to Purchaser Sub in the memorandum, and (ii) if the Indemnification Holdback Fund is not sufficient to cover such amount, within 10 days of entering into such memorandum, each Seller that is required to indemnify the Liability Claim will wire transfer to Purchaser Sub immediately available funds equal to its pro rata portion (determined in proportion to such indemnifying Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages) of any such shortfall.

(b) If no such agreement can be reached after good-faith negotiation and after 30 days after delivery of an Objection Notice, either Purchaser Parent on behalf of Purchaser Parent and Purchaser Sub or the Indemnifying Representative on behalf of the Sellers or an individual Seller as applicable may bring an action against the other to resolve the dispute. To the extent that a Purchaser Indemnitee is permitted under this Article VIII to seek recovery directly against one or more Sellers, then (i) Purchaser Sub may remove and retain from the Indemnification Holdback Fund an amount of cash equal to the Losses that are finally resolved to be recoverable under Article VIII, and (ii) if the Indemnification Holdback Fund is not sufficient to cover such amount, each Seller that is required to indemnify the Liability Claim will promptly, and in no event later than 10 days after the final resolution of any dispute in accordance with this Section 8.8, wire transfer to Purchaser Sub immediately available funds equal to its pro rata portion (determined in proportion to such indemnifying Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages) of any such shortfall, provided that with respect to Losses related to the representations and warranties made by any such Seller pursuant to Section 3.1 (or any certification to the extent related to any such representations and warranties), such Seller will wire transfer to Purchaser Sub immediately available funds equal to the full amount of Losses determined in accordance with this Section 8.8. If the amount of the Losses so determined is an estimate, then the applicable Seller will be required to make such payment within five Business Days of the date that the amount of such Losses is finally determined.

8.9 Determination of Loss. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement, no Party may be held responsible in connection with this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, or the transactions or any other matters contemplated hereby or thereby in respect of any Losses that do not have reasonable relationship (soto inga kankei) to the matter that gave rise to the relevant claim; provided, however, that no Purchaser Indemnitee is required to show reliance on a representation or warranty or certificate in order for such Purchaser Indemnitee to be entitled to indemnification hereunder. Without prejudicing the generality of the foregoing, any Losses incurred by the Purchaser Indemnitees under Section 8.2(a) arising from and relating to any infringement or misappropriation of the Intellectual Property of any Person with respect to the Business Products shall be limited to those resulting from the sale, delivery or other disposition of such products by RSP or RSP-TW or by customers of RSP or RSP-TW, on or prior to the Closing (including the manufacture, offering for sale, importation or use of such products), and any sale, delivery or other disposition of the Business Products after the Closing shall not be taken into account as the basis of determining the amount of such Losses. All indemnification payments under this Article VIII are deemed adjustments to the Purchase Price. If a Purchaser Indemnitee recovers an amount from a Third Party in respect of a Loss that is the subject of indemnification under this Agreement after all or a portion of such Loss has been paid by a Seller pursuant to this Article VIII, the Purchaser Indemnitee shall promptly remit to the Sellers the excess (if any) of (i) the amount paid by the Sellers in respect of such Loss, plus the amount received from the Third Party in respect thereof, less (ii) the amount of the relevant Loss.

8.10 Purchase Price Adjustment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Sellers are not obligated to indemnify Purchasers against any Loss as a result of, or based upon or arising from, any claim or Liability to the extent such claim or Liability is taken into account in determining the Purchase Price adjustment pursuant to Section 2.5.

9.1 Termination of Agreement. The Parties are entitled to terminate this Agreement only as provided below:

(a) The Parties may terminate this Agreement by written agreement at any time prior to the Closing by written agreement of all of the Parties;

(b) Purchaser Parent may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the Seller Parties at any time prior to the Closing (i) in the event any Seller Party has made any material misrepresentation or materially breached any representation or warranty (other than the representations and warranties contained in Schedule 3.2(e)(i) (Financial Statements)) or covenant (other than the covenants in Section 5.7) contained in this Agreement, and the misrepresentation or breach (if susceptible to cure) has continued without cure for a period of 30 days after the notice of misrepresentation or breach, so long as neither Purchaser is in material breach of this Agreement, (ii) if the Closing does not occur on or before December 31, 2014 (the “Drop Dead Date”), so long as (A) neither Purchaser is in material breach of this Agreement and (B) the conditions set forth in Article VII have not all been satisfied or waived (except for such conditions that by their nature cannot be satisfied until the Closing), or (iii) if a Material Adverse Effect has occurred;

(e) Purchaser Parent may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the Seller Parties at any time prior to the Closing if all of the conditions set forth in Article VII have been satisfied or waived (other than (i) the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(g), Section 7.1(n) (with respect to the REL Bank Consents or the PTC Bank Consents), Section 7.2(g) or Section 7.2(h), (ii) the condition set forth in Section 7.1(f), but only if the Financing is then available, and (iii) those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but, in the case of clause (iii), which conditions would be satisfied if the Closing Date were the date Purchaser Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(e)) and the Closing does not occur on or prior to December 19, 2014 due to the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(g), Section 7.1(n) (with respect to the REL Bank Consents or the PTC Bank Consents), Section 7.2(g) or Section 7.2(h) to be satisfied;

(f) the Seller Representative may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Purchaser Parent at any time prior to the Closing (i) in the event either Purchaser has made any material misrepresentation or materially breached any warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement, and the misrepresentation or breach (if susceptible to cure) has continued without cure for a period of 30 days after notice by the Seller Parties to Purchaser Parent of the misrepresentation or breach, so long as no Seller Party is in material breach of this Agreement, or (ii) if the Closing does not occur on or before the Drop Dead Date, so long as no Seller Party is in material breach of this Agreement; provided, however, that Seller Representative may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(f)(ii) if (A) all of the conditions set forth in Article VII have been satisfied or waived (except for such conditions that by their nature cannot be satisfied until the Closing) or (B) the consents referenced in Section 7.2(g) or Section 7.2(h) have not been obtained;

(g) the Seller Representative may terminate this Agreement on or after December 19, 2014 by giving written notice to Purchaser Parent if all of the conditions set forth in Article VII have been satisfied or waived (other than (i) the condition set forth in Section 7.1(f) and (ii) those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but, in the case of clause (ii), which conditions would be satisfied if the Closing Date were the date the Seller Representative terminates this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(g)) and the Closing does not occur on or prior to December 19, 2014 due to the failure of the condition set forth in Section 7.1(f) to be satisfied; and

(h) either (i) Purchaser Parent, by giving written notice to the Seller Parties at any time prior to the Closing or (ii) the Seller Parties, by giving joint written notice by all Seller Parties to Purchaser Parent at any time prior to the Closing, if (1) there is a final non-appealable Order in effect preventing consummation of the Transactions or (2) there is any Law or Order enacted, promulgated or issued or deemed applicable to the Transactions by any Governmental Entity that would make consummation of the Transactions illegal.

(a) If any Party terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, all rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder terminate without any liability of any Party to any other Party or any of their Representatives (except as provided in Section 9.2(b), Section 9.2(c), Section 9.2(d) or Section 9.2(e) and except for any liability of a Party for breach prior to termination); provided, however, that the provisions of Section 9.2 and Article X survive termination.

(b) If Purchaser Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(c), then the Sellers will pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account as directed by Purchaser Sub, an amount equal to JPY3,625,000,000 (the “Termination Fee”) as a termination fee, prior to or immediately following such termination and, if applicable, in any event prior to entering into any agreement with respect to or consummating any Acquisition Transaction. Each Seller will pay to Purchaser Sub such Seller’s pro rata portion of the Termination Fee (determined by reference to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages). If any Seller fails to pay to Purchaser Sub such Seller’s pro rata portion of the Termination Fee when due, the other Sellers shall be jointly and severally liable to pay to Purchaser Sub the portion of the Termination Fee owed to Purchaser by each defaulting Seller. In the event that any Seller shall fail to pay such Seller’s portion of the Termination Fee when due, the Sellers, on a joint and several basis, will reimburse Purchasers for all reasonable costs and expenses actually incurred or accrued by either or both of them (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) in connection with the collection under and enforcement of this Section 9.2(b), together with interest on any portion of the Termination Fee that remains unpaid at the prime rate as quoted on Bloomberg screen (PRIMBB Index) in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date of payment plus 2% per annum.

(c) If Purchaser Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(e), then the Sellers will pay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account as directed by Purchaser Sub, an amount equal to all of the Purchasers’ reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses (including all fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, investment bankers, financing sources and consultants) incurred in connection with or related to the authorization, preparation, negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements and all other matters related to the consummation of the Transactions. Each Seller will pay to Purchaser Sub such Seller’s pro rata portion of the expenses specified in the preceding sentence (determined by reference to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages). If any Seller fails to pay to Purchaser Sub such Seller’s pro rata portion of such expenses when due, the other Sellers shall be jointly and severally liable to pay to Purchaser Sub the portion of such expense owed to Purchaser by each defaulting Seller. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(e): (i) Purchaser Sub’s right to receive the amounts specified in the preceding sentence pursuant to this Section 9.2(c) will be the Purchasers sole and exclusive remedy against the Seller Parties or any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents or Representatives for any Loss, claim, damage, Liability or expense suffered as a result of the failure of any of the Transactions to be consummated; and (ii) upon payment of the amounts specified in the preceding sentence that are required to be paid pursuant to this Section 9.2(c), none of the Seller Parties or any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents or Representatives will have any further Liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions.

(d) Subject to the last sentence of this Section 9.2(d), if the Seller Representative terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(g), then Purchaser Parent will pay to each Seller Party, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account as directed by each Seller Party, an amount equal to all of such Seller Party’s reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses (including all fees and expenses of counsel, accountants, investment bankers, financing sources and consultants) incurred in connection with or related to the authorization, preparation, negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements and all other matters related to the consummation of the Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(g): (i) each Seller Party’s right to receive the amounts specified in the preceding sentence pursuant to this Section 9.2(d) will be such Seller Party’s sole and exclusive remedy against Purchaser Parent, Purchaser Sub or any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents or Representatives for any Loss, claim, damage, Liability or expense suffered as a result of the failure of any of the Transactions to be consummated; and (ii) upon payment of the amounts specified in the preceding sentence that are required to be paid pursuant to this Section 9.2(d), none of Purchaser Parent, Purchaser Sub or any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents or Representatives will have any further Liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions. If (A) the condition in Section 7.1(f) is not satisfied as a result of the Financing Sources refusing to make the Financing available because of the occurrence of an event described in subclause (d) of the definition of “Material Adverse Effect,” and (B) this Agreement is terminated by the Seller Representative pursuant to Section 9.1(g), then Purchaser Parent will not be required to pay the Seller Parties the amounts specified in the first sentence of this Section 9.2(d) and none of Purchaser Parent, Purchaser Sub or any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents or Representatives will have any Liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions. If (A) the condition in Section 7.1(f) is not satisfied as a result of the Financing Sources not being able to make the Financing available on terms that are substantially similar to those specified in the Commitment Letter, by reason of the occurrence of (w) an act of God, (x) a suspension or material limitation in trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York declared by either U.S. federal or New York State authorities or a suspension of payments in respect of federal or state banks in the United States (whether or not mandatory), (y) the outbreak or escalation of hostilities directly involving the United States or the declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war or an act of terrorism or (z) an adverse and material change in financial or securities markets or commercial banking conditions in the United States, and (B) this Agreement is terminated by the Seller Representative pursuant to Section 9.1(g), then Purchaser Parent will not be required to pay the Seller Parties the amounts specified in the first sentence of this Section 9.2(d) and none of Purchaser Parent, Purchaser Sub or any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, employees, agents or Representatives will have any Liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transactions.

(e) If Purchaser Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(b)(i) or (iii), Section 9.1(c) or Section 9.1(d) or Section 9.1(e), and in any such case neither Purchaser is in breach of this Agreement, then the Sellers will be responsible for all fees and expenses in respect of the preparation of the Required Financial Statements pro rata in proportion to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages. If the Seller Representative terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(d), then the Purchasers will not be obligated to reimburse the Seller Parties for any fees or expenses of the auditors engaged to prepare the Required Financial Statements, and will only be required to make the payment described in Section 9.2(d) (to the extent that a payment is due under Section 9.2(d). If the Seller Representative terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(f)(i), then the Purchasers will reimburse the Seller Parties for the documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of the auditors engaged to prepare the Required Financial Statements, in respect of the preparation of the Required Financial Statements. If this Agreement is otherwise terminated, then the Purchasers will reimburse the Seller Parties for one-half of the documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of the auditors engaged to prepare the Required Financial Statements, in respect of the preparation of the Required Financial Statements, up to a maximum of JPY200,000,000, and the Sellers will be responsible for the remainder of such fees and expenses pro rata in proportion to the Sellers’ respective Holdback Percentages. The payment of the fees and expenses in respect of the preparation of the Required Financial Statements pursuant to this Section 9.2(e) will not be deemed to be an exclusive remedy under this Agreement.

(f) Each Party acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 9.2 are an integral part of the Transactions, (ii) without these agreements, the other Parties would not enter into this Agreement and (iii) the fees (including the Termination Fee) contemplated by this Section 9.2 are not penalties, but rather constitute damages in a reasonable amount that will partially compensate the Purchasers or the Sellers, as applicable, in the circumstances in which each such fee is payable, including the efforts and resources expended and opportunity forgone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the Transactions, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

(a) REL is hereby constituted and appointed as the Seller representative (the “Seller Representative”) and hereby accepts such appointment, effective as of the Closing. Each Seller, by virtue of its adoption of this Agreement, is deemed to have appointed and constituted the Seller Representative as their agent and true and lawful attorney-in-fact with the powers and authority as set forth in this Agreement. Except where otherwise provided in this Agreement (including Article VIII), the Seller Representative is the exclusive agent for and on behalf of the Sellers after the Closing to (1) give and receive notices and communications to or from Purchaser Parent (on behalf of itself or any other Purchaser Indemnitee) relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions; (2) object to indemnification claims in accordance with Section 8.8; (3) subject to Section 8.7(d), consent or agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with Orders with respect to, such claims; and (4) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Seller Representative for the accomplishment of the matters set forth in this Section 10.1, in each case without having to seek or obtain the consent of any Person under any circumstance. The Seller Representative is the sole and exclusive means of asserting or addressing any of the above, and no Seller has any right to act on its own behalf with respect to any such matters, other than any claim or dispute against the Seller Representative. This appointment of agency and this power of attorney is coupled with an interest and will be irrevocable and will not be terminated by any Seller or by operation of Law, as the result of any event, and any action taken by the Seller Representative will be as valid as if such event had not occurred, regardless of whether or not any Seller or the Seller Representative will have received any notice thereof. Seller Representative shall be entitled to pro rata contribution from each Seller with respect to any fees, expenses or other amounts that Seller Representative pays or incurs hereunder in its role as Seller Representative (including but not limited to the fees and expenses of the Settlement Accountant).

(b) Any notice or communication given or received by, and any decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, the Seller Representative that is within the scope of the Seller Representative’s authority under Section 10.1(a) constitutes a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, all Sellers and is final, binding and conclusive upon each such stockholder. Each Purchaser Indemnitee is entitled to rely upon any such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction as being a notice or communication to or by, or a decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent, settlement, resolution or instruction of, each and every Seller. Each Purchaser Indemnitee is unconditionally and irrevocably relieved from any liability to any Person for any acts done by them in accordance with any such notice, communication, decision, action, failure to act within a designated period of time, agreement, consent or instruction of the Seller Representative.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller Representative does not assume any liabilities or obligations of each Seller by being appointed as the Seller Representative, and in no event shall be liable for any payment, indemnification or other obligations of each Seller by being the Seller Representative.

10.2 Press Releases and Public Announcements. No Party may issue any press release or make any public announcement relating to the subject matter of this Agreement prior to the Closing without the prior written approval of Purchaser Parent, REL, Sharp and Powerchip; provided, however, that a Party may make any public disclosure it believes in good faith is required by applicable Law or any rules of a securities exchange on which it lists its securities (in which case the disclosing Party shall employ its best efforts to advise the other Parties prior to making the disclosure).

10.3 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except with respect to the Purchaser Indemnitees under Article VIII, this Agreement does not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that the provisions of Sections 10.3, 10.12 and 10.20 are intended for the benefit of and shall be enforceable by the Financing Sources.

10.4 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Ancillary Agreements and other documents referred to herein and the Confidentiality Agreements, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or between the Parties, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or thereof.

(a) Maintenance of Confidentiality. Subject to Section 10.2, from the Effective Date and continuing until the expiration of the fifth anniversary of the Closing, no Party may, and each Party shall ensure that its Affiliates (including INCJ, which will be deemed an Affiliate of REL, RSP and RSP-TW for the purpose of this Section 10.5) do not, through any action or inaction, use (except as contemplated by this Agreement), or disclose to any other Person, any Confidential Information of or relating to the other Party (it being understood that following the Closing, this Section 10.5 applies to the use or disclosure of any Confidential Information of RSP or RSP-TW or their respective businesses by the Seller Parties and their Affiliates but after the Closing does not apply with respect to the use or disclosure of the Confidential Information of RSP or RSP-TW or their respective businesses by Purchaser Parent, Purchaser Sub, or any of their Affiliates). Subject to Section 10.5(b), the foregoing prohibitions do not apply to (i) disclosures that are required by any applicable Law (including any rule or regulation of a securities exchange on which a Party’s securities are listed and that may require such disclosure) or by a Governmental Entity; (ii) information that is ascertainable or obtained from public information or is otherwise publicly known through no wrongful act of the receiving Party; (iii) information received from a Person not known after reasonable inquiry to the disclosing Party to be under an obligation to keep such information confidential; (iv) information independently developed by the receiving Party without use of the disclosing Party’s information; (v) information disclosed to or filed with any Person for the purpose of obtaining consents to, or the Financing of, the Transactions; and (vi) disclosures contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Party may (without prior notification to, or approval or consent by, the other Party) disclose to Tax authorities or to such Party’s Representatives (including outside counsel and advisors) any confidential or non-public information that is required to be disclosed in connection with such party’s Tax filings, reports, claims, audits, or litigation.

(b) Required Disclosure. Notwithstanding Section 10.5(a), in the event a Party is required to disclose the Confidential Information of or relating to another Party pursuant to any applicable Law, and would otherwise be prohibited from doing so under this Section 10.5, such Party so required shall (i) promptly notify such other Party of the existence, terms and circumstances surrounding such requirement; (ii) consult with such other Party on the advisability of taking legally available steps to resist or narrow such request; and (iii) if disclosure of such Confidential Information is required, furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that the first Party is legally compelled to disclose and advise the other Party reasonably in advance of such disclosure so that such other Party may seek an appropriate protective Order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information. The Party required to make such disclosure may not oppose actions by such other Party to obtain an appropriate protective Order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information.

10.6 Exclusive Remedy. The rights and remedies of the Purchasers under Article VIII and Article IX are the sole and exclusive, and are in lieu of, any and all other rights, remedies and causes of action (whether in Law, contact, defect liability, tort or otherwise) that the Purchasers and their Affiliates (including RSP and RSP-TW following the Closing) may have against the Seller Parties and their Affiliates under, in connection with, arising out of, resulting from or in any way related to this Agreement or the transactions or any other matters contemplated hereby; provided, however, that these exclusive remedies for Losses will not be construed to preclude a Party from bringing an action for specific performance to require the other Party to perform its specific obligation under the provisions of this Agreement; provided further, however, that notwithstanding the remedies available to the Purchaser Indemnitees hereunder, the right of Purchasers or any other Purchaser Indemnitee to pursue action for any other remedies or relief under any Ancillary Agreement against the counterparties thereto will not be limited hereby; and provided further, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, nothing herein will prevent any Purchaser Indemnitee from bringing an action for fraud or intentional misrepresentation against any Person, including any Seller Party, whose fraud or intentional misrepresentation has caused such Purchaser Indemnitee to incur Losses or has limited the Losses recoverable by such Purchaser Indemnitee in such action. Nothing in this Agreement will limit the liability of the Seller Parties for any misrepresentation or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement if the Transactions are not consummated. The Parties agree that no Seller Party will have the right to seek specific performance of the Purchasers’ covenants in Section 5.8. The Parties agree that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(g) and receive the amounts specified in Section 9.2(d) will be the Seller Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy if the Financing is not obtained by, or is not made available to, the Purchasers).

10.7 Succession and Assignment. No Party may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights or interests hereunder, or delegate any of its obligations hereunder, without the prior written approval of Purchasers and the other Parties (before the Closing) or the prior written approval of Purchaser Parent and the Seller Representative (after the Closing), except that (a) Purchaser Parent and Purchaser Sub may each assign and delegate any or all of its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement (1) before or after the Closing, to any of its Affiliates and (2) after the Closing, to any Person, as long as any such Affiliate or Person agrees in writing to be bound by all of the terms, conditions and provisions contained in this Agreement, but no such assignment or delegation will relieve Purchaser Parent or Purchaser Sub (as applicable) of its obligations under this Agreement if such assignee does not perform such obligations.

10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (including by means of facsimile), each of which is deemed an original but all of which together constitute one and the same instrument. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by means of a fax machine or by .pdf, .tif, .gif, .jpeg or similar attachment to electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”) shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. No Party hereto may raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each such Party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent that such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

10.9 Headings. The section headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

10.10 Notices. All notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications hereunder must be in writing. Any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication hereunder is deemed duly given (i) when delivered personally to the recipient, (ii) one Business Day after being sent to the recipient by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid), (iii) one Business Day after being sent to the recipient by facsimile transmission or electronic mail, or (iv) seven Business Days after being mailed to the recipient by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, and addressed to the intended recipient as set forth below:

Attention: Executive Officer, Division General Manager, Electronic Components and Devices Division

If to (A) Purchaser Parent or Purchaser Sub or (B) RSP or RSP-TW (after the Closing):

A Party may change the address to which notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications hereunder are to be delivered by giving the other Party notice in the manner herein set forth.

(a) This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of Japan without giving effect to any choice or conflict of Law provision or rule that would cause the application of the Laws of any jurisdiction other than Japan.

(b) Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity hereof, including any request for specific performance, claim based on contract, tort, statute or constitution or the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration under the ICC Rules, which Rules are deemed to be incorporated herein by reference, as modified by this Section 10.11. The place of arbitration will be Tokyo, Japan.

(c) Should the parties to an arbitration proceeding agree to hold meetings in any place other than Tokyo, Japan, in the interests of reducing the total cost to the parties of the arbitration, the arbitration shall nonetheless be treated as an arbitration conducted at the seat of the arbitration and any award shall be treated as an award made at the seat of the arbitration for all purposes. The arbitration proceedings will be conducted in English.

(d) The arbitration shall be conducted by three arbitrators, one of whom shall be selected by Purchaser Parent, one of whom shall be selected by the Seller Representative, and one of whom shall be selected by agreement of the arbitrators selected by Purchaser Parent and the Seller Representative (the “Panel”). Decisions of the Panel shall be by majority vote. The Panel will have the power to order any remedy, including monetary damages, specific performance (to the extent permitted under this Agreement) and all other forms of legal and equitable relief, except that the Panel will not have the power to order punitive damages.

(e) Each party to an arbitration will be entitled to the timely production by the other party of relevant, non-privileged documents or copies thereof. If the parties are unable to agree on the scope or timing of such document production, the Panel will have the power, upon application of any party, to make all appropriate orders for the production of documents by any party.

(f) The Panel may appoint expert witnesses only with the consent of all of the parties to the arbitration.

(g) The arbitrators’ fees and the administrative expenses of the arbitration will be paid equally by the parties to the arbitration. Each party to the arbitration will pay its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with the arbitration.

(h) The award rendered by the Panel will be executory, final and binding on the parties. The award rendered by the Panel may be entered into any court having jurisdiction, or application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of the award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. Such court proceeding may disclose only the minimum amount of information concerning the arbitration as is required to obtain such acceptance or order.

(i) Each Party hereby agrees that in connection with any such action, process may be served in the same manner as notices may be delivered under this Agreement, and irrevocably waives any defenses it may have to service in such manner.

(j) Each Party hereby agrees that this Agreement does not preclude Parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from the appropriate trial courts located in Tokyo, Japan. For the purposes of this subparagraph, each of the Parties consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the courts described in the first sentence of this subparagraph, agrees not to attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other application, agrees not to bring any Proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions in any other court, agrees not to assert as a defense that such Proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such courts, and agrees that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such Proceeding in the manner provided in Section 10.10 or in such other manner as may be permitted by Law will be valid and sufficient service thereof.

(a) Prior to the Closing, no amendment of any provision of this Agreement is valid unless the same is in writing and signed by Purchaser Parent, Purchaser Sub, and each Seller Party. After the Closing, no amendment of any provision of this Agreement is valid unless the same is in writing and signed by Purchaser Parent and each Seller Party. No waiver by a Party of any provision of this Agreement or any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, is valid unless the same is in writing and signed by the Party making such waiver, nor is such waiver deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. To the extent any amendment, modification or waiver to Sections 10.3, 10.12 or 10.20 is sought which is adverse to the rights of the Financing Sources, the prior written consent of the Financing Sources shall be required before such amendment, modification or waiver is rendered effective.

(b) Any Party may, to the extent legally allowed, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to such Party herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, and (iii) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such Party contained herein. At any time after the Closing, the Parties may, to the extent legally allowed, (1) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other, (2) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to Purchasers (in the case of a waiver by Purchaser Parent) or made to the Sellers (in the case of a waiver by the Sellers) herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (3) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of Purchasers (in the case of a waiver by Purchaser Parent) or made to the Sellers (in the case of a waiver by the Sellers). Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver is valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party. Without limiting the generality or effect of the preceding sentence, no delay in exercising any right under this Agreement constitutes a waiver of such right, and no waiver of any breach or default will be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default of the same or any other provision in this Agreement.

10.13 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction does not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

10.14 Expenses. Except as provided in Section 5.14 and Section 9.2(c), each of Purchaser Parent (on behalf of itself and Purchaser Sub) and each Seller Party shall bear its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the Seller Parties when due, and the Seller Parties shall, at their own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes, fees and charges, and, if required by applicable Law, the Purchasers shall, and shall cause their Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

10.15 Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement is to be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof is to arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

10.16 Incorporation of Exhibits, Annexes, and Schedules. The Exhibits, Annexes, and Schedules, including the Seller Disclosure Schedule, identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

10.17 Governing Language. This Agreement has been negotiated and executed by the Parties in English. In the event any translation of this Agreement is prepared for convenience or any other purpose, the provisions of the English version prevail.

10.18 Purchaser Parent’s Obligation. The Purchaser Parent shall ensure and cause the Purchaser Sub to perform and comply with any and all obligations, duties, covenants, commitments, agreements and arrangements of the Purchaser Sub set forth in this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreements.

10.19 Sellers’ Obligation. The Sellers shall ensure and cause RSP and RSP-TW to perform and comply with any and all obligations, duties, covenants, commitments, agreements and arrangements of RSP and RSP-TW, respectively, set forth in this Agreement prior to the Closing.

10.20 Financing Sources. The Purchasers, the Sellers and their respective Subsidiaries, Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, partners, managers, members or stockholders shall not have any rights or claims against the Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the performance of any financing commitments with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise. No Financing Source shall have any liability (whether at law or equity, in contract or in tort or otherwise) to the Purchasers, the Sellers or any of their respective Subsidiaries, Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, partners, managers, members or stockholders for any obligations or liabilities of any party hereto under this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the performance of any financing commitment (whether or not arising under the Commitment Letter or any related agreements). Without prejudice to the preceding sentences in this Section 10.20, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) each of the Parties hereby agrees that it will not bring any action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim, third-party claim or other Proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any Financing Source in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Financing or the performance thereof, in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under applicable law jurisdiction is vested in Federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (or appellate courts thereof) and each such action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim, third-party claim or Proceeding shall be governed by the law of the State of New York and (y) each of the Parties hereby irrevocably waives all right to trial by jury in any such action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim, third-party claim or Proceeding described in the preceding clause (x).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and in the Purchase Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein will have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement.

(i) REL will provide to RSP and RSP-TW the services and take the actions set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and any services that are incidental thereto but not specifically described (however, with regard to those services not specifically described in Exhibit A, to the extent not incurring any additional cost to REL) (the “Transition Services”). In case where the provision of this Agreement and that of Exhibit A conflicts, the Parties agree that the provision of Exhibit A will supersede.

(ii) In furtherance of its provision of the Transition Services to be performed by REL, REL shall provide, or cause to be provided, current and reasonably available historical data related to the Transition Services to be performed by REL and predecessor services thereto, as reasonably required by any Purchaser, in a reasonably timely manner to the extent such data is not contained at RSP or RSP-TW.

(iii) REL shall be responsible for obtaining, at REL’s cost, all necessary licenses, consents (excluding any consent fee that Purchaser Parent has agreed to pay pursuant to the terms of Exhibit A), approvals, permits, and authorizations that are required to be obtained in order for REL to perform the Transition Services to be provided by REL.

(i) Throughout the term of this Agreement, REL shall use its good faith, commercially reasonable efforts to effect the efficient, timely and seamless provision of the Transition Services REL. Without limiting the foregoing sentence, REL will perform the Transition Services such that the nature, quality, standard of care and the service levels at which such Transition Services are performed are reasonable and in any event are no less than the nature, quality, standard of care and service levels at which such services were provided by REL to RSP or RSP-TW or with respect to the Business during the 12-month period prior to the Effective Date.

(ii) REL shall comply with all applicable Laws when providing the Services or when performing obligations under this Agreement.

(c) Additional Transition Services.

The terms and conditions of such additional Transition Services shall be agreed upon between the Purchaser Parent and REL in writing, and such written agreement shall be deemed to constitute a part of Exhibit A; provided, however, that the fee for such additional Transition Services will be based on the costs (including reasonably allocated overhead costs which includes all labor costs). Any such additional Transition Services shall be performed to the same level of care as specified in Section 2(b).

(1) With the approval of Purchaser Parent in its sole discretion, REL may engage one or more third parties to provide any Transition Service (any such third party, a “Third Party Provider”); provided, however, that REL may engage the parties set forth in Exhibit B (for the Transition Services set forth therein), or any of REL’s Affiliates as such Third Party Provider without any approval of Purchaser Parent. All costs and expenses of such Third Party Providers (the “Third Party Expenses”) shall be paid directly by REL engaging such Third Party Provider, and Purchaser Parent will not have any obligation to pay any costs and expenses to such Third Party Providers and shall only have to pay to REL the Services Fee pursuant to Section 3.

(i) No Purchaser will have any obligation to continue to use any of the Transition Services, and the Purchaser Parent (in its sole discretion) may terminate any Transition Service by giving REL not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of its determination to terminate any particular Transition Service; provided, however, that, in case where a Transition Service is provided by a Third Party Provider, and the underlying service agreement with such Third Party Provider requires a longer termination period, the termination period hereunder shall be extended to that extent. Any notice provided by Purchaser Parent of the termination of any Transition Service is referred to as a “Termination Notice.”

(ii) As soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of any Termination Notice, REL will advise Purchaser Parent whether the termination of such Transition Service will require the termination or partial termination of, or otherwise affect the provision of, any other Transition Services. If either of the foregoing occurs, then Purchaser Parent may withdraw its termination notice within 10 days after receipt of such notice from REL. If Purchaser Parent does not withdraw the termination notice within such period, such termination will be final. Upon such termination, and after the lapse of the period (if any) specified in such Termination Notice, REL’s obligation to provide such Transition Service hereunder will terminate.

(i) Prior to the termination or expiration of this Agreement (or any Transition Services provided hereunder), REL shall at Purchasers’ sole expense, facilitate an orderly transition of the Transition Services and Purchasers and REL shall cooperate to facilitate such transition. REL shall deliver to the Purchasers copies of such documents, policies, procedures, records and information which the Purchasers reasonably requests to deliver and which are reasonably necessary for the Purchasers to reproduce the Transition Services independently and to achieve such transition.

(a) The Purchaser Parent shall pay the fee for each Transition Service (“Services Fee”) provided by REL pursuant to this Agreement, the amount of which is as set forth in Exhibit A.

(b) REL shall invoice Purchaser Parent on the tenth (10th) day of the first month of each calendar quarter for the Transition Services provided during the immediately preceding calendar quarter specifying the Transition Services provided during that quarter and the Service Fee for such Transition Services. By the twenty-fifth (25th) day of the month so invoiced, Purchaser Parent shall pay the invoiced amount and value added tax thereto to REL designated account by means of a wire transfer in cash.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Parties acknowledge and agree that it is their mutual intent that the fees for the Transition Services provided hereunder shall be equivalent to the actual costs (including reasonably allocated employment costs and overhead costs) reasonably incurred to provide such Transition Services. The Parties agree to cooperate in good faith in furtherance of the foregoing, including by adjusting the fees from time to time if necessary in order to effectuate this intent.

(e) Notwithstanding any dispute on the amount of payment under this Agreement, each Party shall continue to perform its obligations hereunder (including obligations to make payments of the amounts included on the invoices for the Transition Services and which are not disputed in good faith) and be entitled to exercise its rights under this Agreement. Any invoice amount which remains disputed after thirty (30) days shall be referred to the Coordinating Committee.

4. Right of First Refusal. In the event that REL wishes to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of its assets that are necessary for the provision of any Transition Services at any time during the Term (but excluding such assets substitutable with other equivalent assets) (“Offered Assets”), REL shall first make an offer for the sale of such Offered Assets to Purchasers by giving Purchasers a written notice setting forth the price and other terms and conditions thereof (“Notice of Sale”). Purchasers shall notify REL in writing whether a Purchaser accepts or rejects such offer made in the Notice of Sale within thirty (30) days after the receipt thereof (such thirty-day period, the “Notice Period”). Unless a Purchaser accepts in writing such offer made in the Notice of Sale prior to the expiration of the Notice Period, REL shall be free to sell or otherwise dispose of such Offered Assets offered through the Notice of Sale to a third party; provided, however, that such sale or disposal to a third party shall not be made under terms and conditions more favorable than the offer made to Purchasers in the Notice of Sale. If REL sells or otherwise disposes of any of such Offered Assets, it shall nonetheless continue to provide Purchasers with the relevant Transition Services in accordance with this Agreement without any other change in the terms and conditions thereof.

5. Term. The term of this Agreement will commence on the Closing Date and continue until the earlier of (i) the first anniversary of the Effective Date, or (ii) the termination of the period of provision of the last Transition Service as provided in Section 2(e)(i) (such term, the “Term”).

Each Party, upon prior written notice to the other Party, may from time to time remove or replace any member appointed by such Party.

(“RSP”), a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of Japan and having its registered office at 20-1 Josuihon-cho, 5chome, Kodaira-shi, Tokyo, Japan; and Powerchip Technology Corp. (“POWERCHIP”), a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the Republic of China (ROC) and having its registered office at No.12, Li-Hsin Road 1, Hsinchu Science Park, HsinChu, Taiwan, R.O.C.

RSP and POWERCHIP are hereinafter referred to individually as a “PARTY”, and collectively as the “PARTIES”.

WHEREAS, RENESAS (“REL”), POWERCHIP, RSP and Synaptics Incorporated (“SYNAPTICS”) entered into STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT as of June 11, 2014 under which SYNAPTICS causes its subsidiary to purchase the shares of RSP owned by RENESAS and POWERCHIP;

WHEREAS, RSP is desirous of ordering wafer foundry service for the PRODUCTS (“BUSINESS”) from POWERCHIP; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and premises contained herein, the PARTIES hereto agree as follows:

For purposes of this AGREEMENT, capitalized terms shall have the meanings set forth in the preamble, recitals and as set forth below:

(a) POWERCHIP shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide [*****] percent ([*****]%) of the FORECAST and additional capacity as requested and as available. If RSP requires more capacity than provided in the CAPACITY PLAN, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to resolve RSP’s additional capacity requirements.

(b) POWERCHIP shall provide RSP prompt written notice if POWERCHIP becomes aware of any circumstance which may constrain its capacity to manufacture Contract Wafers in accordance with the then current FORECAST. If POWERCHIP’s manufacturing capacity to manufacture products for RSP is constrained for any reason, POWERCHIP will treat RSP as it does its other sole sourced customers and with the same priority as such customers, without regard to wafer pricing.

Regarding all wafers for PRODUCTS that fails to meet the PURCHASING SPECIFICATION, POWERCHIP shall destroy and dispose all such wafers, at POWERCHIP’s expense and take measures to ensure that none of such defective wafers be diverted for any use including, without limitation, use as partially useable products, when disposing of such wafers;

Regarding all wafers for PRODUCTS that RSP rejects due to agreed cancellation, upon RSP’ request, POWERCHIP shall destroy and dispose all such wafers and take measures to ensure that none of such defective wafers be diverted for any use including, without limitation, use as partially useable products, when disposing of such wafers;

The PARTIES agree that RSP shall have no obligation to purchase or take any PRODUCTS manufactured by POWERCHIP that fail to meet the PURCHASING SPECIFICATION as stipulated in Section 7.1 except for the case that the defect is caused by RSP. Notwithstanding the foregoing, RSP may ask POWERCHIP to deliver to RSP samples of such defective PRODUCTS, on condition that such shipment related expenses shall be borne by RSP. Regarding the defective PRODUCTS for which the defect is caused by RSP, both PARTIES shall discuss in good faith detailed treatment for such defective PRODUCTS.

1) No ownership or other interest in any RSP’ INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS or RSP TECHNICAL INFORMATION is or shall be deemed to be transferred or licensed to POWERCHIP by reason of this AGREEMENT. RSP shall retain the right for itself and its SUBSIDIARIES to utilize or furnish to others RSP TECHNICAL INFORMATION in any way whatsoever and in any country of the world.

Subject to the terms of this AGREEMENT and terminating concurrently with the term of this AGREEMENT, RSP will not assert any claim against POWERCHIP of patent infringement for any patent owned or controlled by RSP for the manufacture, use, import, sale, or other transfer of any PRODUCT sold by POWERCHIP to RSP, RSP AFFILLIATES, and/or to its SUBSIDIARY(IES); this covenant not to sue does not extend to products sold by or to any other third parties.

During POWERCHIP’s operating hours and upon prior reasonable written notice, RSP, or RSP together with its customers who purchase the RSP products which incorporate PRODUCTS may, when accompanied by POWERCHIP personnel inspect POWERCHIP’s facilities including, without limitation, the PRODUCTION LINE, and the processes and controls used by POWERCHIP to manufacture and deliver PRODUCTS to RSP, subject to POWERCHIP’s consent to the schedule for such inspection, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. POWERCHIP shall furnish RSP with data or materials, and shall cooperate with RSP in any reasonable manner required by RSP, in connection with such inspection and more generally in connection with the production control and quality assurance for the PRODUCTS. All information disclosed by POWERCHIP in connection with any inspection that may be conducted by RSP shall be treated as CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Notwithstanding the above, POWERCHIP shall not have any obligation, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by the PARTIES, to disclose confidential information of third parties to RSP. Any inspection that RSP may conduct pursuant to this AGREEMENT shall not relieve POWERCHIP of any of its obligations under this AGREEMENT, including, but not limited to, manufacturing and supplying PRODUCTS to RSP that fully conform to the PURCHASING SPECIFICATION.

(a) Control List of Wassenaar Arrangement, including List of Dual-use Goods and Technologies and Munitions List.

(b) Control List of Nonproliferation, including Control of Missile Technologies Control Regime, Control List of Australia Group, and Control List of Nuclear Supplies Group.

In the event of a disclosure required by law or the order of any governmental body of competent jurisdiction, the PARTY required to make such disclosure shall use all reasonable efforts (and cooperate with the other PARTY’S efforts) to obtain confidential treatment of all materials required to be disclose.

(a) RSP, the forum for such arbitration (including any counter-claims related thereto) is the city of Taipei, Taiwan; and

(b) POWERCHIP, the forum for such arbitration (including any counter-claims related thereto) is the city of Tokyo, Japan,

and shall proceed under the rules then prevailing of the International Chamber of Commerce. The dispute shall be referred to a single arbitrator, if agreed upon by the PARTIES, or otherwise to three arbitrators, one to be appointed by each PARTY and the third to be chosen by the first two named arbitrators. Judgment shall be final and binding upon any award made in such arbitration may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision to the contrary in this AGREEMENT, nothing herein shall prohibit a PARTY from seeking provisional or equitable relief (including, without limitation, injunctive relief) from any court of competent jurisdiction pending a final award from the arbitrator(s); provided, however, that this right to seek provisional or equitable relief is not intended to nor shall it usurp the obligation of the PARTIES to otherwise resolve disputes arising under this AGREEMENT in accordance with the other provisions of this Section 17.9.
