Metrowerks is a company that designs, develops, markets and supports
professional software development tools used to create software applications for
a variety of industries. Metrowerks' flagship product, CodeWarrior, as more
particularly described in SCHEDULE A attached hereto and made a part hereof
("CODEWARRIOR SOFTWARE"), is a suite of development tools consisting of
cross-platform compilers supporting C, C++, Java and assembly programming
languages which are used for both embedded systems development and desktop
applications.
Lineo is a company that develops, markets and sells embedded system
software tools, components and solutions. Lineo's embedded Linux system software
line, as more particularly described in SCHEDULE A attached hereto and made a
part hereof ("LINEO SOFTWARE"), includes software and documentation needed to
develop an Embedix target device from a Linux host.
It is the parties' intentions, by entering into this Agreement, that, to

or (e) other acts of Lineo.

OF PATENTS, COPYRIGHTS, TRADEMARKS OR ANY OTHER FORM OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
RIGHT BY ANY PRODUCT SUPPLIED BY METROWERKS.

harmless from and against any and all third-party claims, actions, demands, and
related damages, liabilities, costs and expenses resulting from (a) the breach
of Lineo's representation and warranty in Section 9.2(b) above and (b) charges
or allegations that the Lineo Software or a Lineo Mark appropriately used, sold
or distributed by Metrowerks infringes any U.S. patent, U.S. trademark, U.S.
trade secret or U.S. copyright of any third party. Metrowerks shall permit Lineo
to replace or modify any Lineo Software affected so as to avoid infringement or
to procure the right for Metrowerks to continue use and marketing of such items.
If neither alternative is possible or commercially reasonable, the infringing
items shall be returned to Lineo, whose sole liability shall be to refund Lineo
Software Royalties paid by Metrowerks for the affected copies of the Lineo
Software. Lineo shall have no liability for infringement based on (i)

hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party. Any assignment
attempted or contemplated in violation hereof shall be null and void.
13.2 AMENDMENT AND WAIVER. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein,
any provision of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any
provision of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or any particular
instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written

13.3 GOVERNING LAW AND LEGAL ACTIONS. This Agreement shall be governed by
and construed under the laws of the State of Texas without regard to conflicts
of laws provisions thereof and without regard to the United Nations Convention

13.4 DISPUTE RESOLUTION. The parties hereto agree to attempt in good faith
to resolve all disputes arising between them first through expedited mediation

completed, except that in the event that the actions of one party will cause or
are causing the other immediate irreparable injury requiring temporary
injunctive relief and the other party is unwilling to suspend its planned or
existing activity to allow for expedited mediation, the aggrieved party may file
suit and seek such temporary injunctive relief in a court with jurisdiction over
the subject matter of the dispute. Dispute resolution under this section shall
be triggered by one party's service upon the other of a written notice and
request to mediate, identifying the subject matter of the dispute and the nature
of the relief sought. Unless otherwise agreed in writing at the time of
mediation, mediation shall be conducted through and under the mediation rules of
the American Arbitration Association.

party shall be entitled to recover reasonable costs and attorneys' fees.

each party to
18
issue and post to its website an announcement concerning this Agreement,
provided that each party must approve any such press announcement prior to its
release. Any separate release shall be subject to approval by both parties prior
to publication of such release. Each party shall have the right to use the other
party's name as a customer reference.
13.9 EMPLOYEES. Metrowerks and Lineo agree that, during the Term of this
Agreement and for a period of twelve (12) months after its termination or
expiration (the "RESTRICTED PERIOD"), neither shall solicit for employment or
retain to perform work in any capacity the technical and managerial employees of
the other (the "RESTRICTED EMPLOYEE(S)") or otherwise interfere with the
employment relationships existing between the other and the Restricted
Employees. If during the Restricted Period, Metrowerks or Lineo, hereinafter,
the "RETAINING PARTY") hires or otherwise retains a Restricted Employee employed
or formerly employed by the other (hereinafter, the "EMPLOYING PARTY"), the
Retaining Party shall pay to the Employing Party a cash fee of $100,000, or one
year of the Restricted Employee's salary immediately prior to the Restricted
Employee's departure, whichever is greater (the "CASH FEE"). However, no Cash
Fee shall be required if the Retaining Party can demonstrate to the satisfaction
of the Employing Party that (a) no active solicitation of such Restricted
Employee occurred, either directly or indirectly, by the Retaining Party and (b)
the Restricted Employee in question intended to leave the Employing Party's
employ regardless of any offer he or she received from the Retaining Party. The
Employing Party shall not unreasonably refuse to accept evidence that these
conditions have been met.
13.10 HEADINGS. Headings and captions are for convenience only and are not
to be used in the interpretation of this Agreement.

service with tracking capabilities, transmitted by confirmed facsimile with copy
of facsimile mailed or mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt
requested to a party at its addresses set forth on the signature page of this
Agreement or as amended by notice pursuant to this subsection. If not received
sooner, notice by mail shall be deemed received seven (7) days after deposit in
the U.S. or foreign country mails.
13.12 RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. There is no joint venture, partnership,
agency or fiduciary relationship existing between the parties, and the parties
do not intend to create any such relationship by this Agreement.
13.13 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, including the schedules hereto (as
such schedules may be amended from time to time upon the mutual agreement of the
parties), supersedes all proposals, oral or written, all negotiations,
conversations, or discussions between or among the parties relating to the
subject matter of this Agreement and all past dealing or industry custom. This
Agreement shall supersede the Reseller Agreement between Metrowerks and Lineo
dated May 3, 2000.
13.14 FORCE MAJEURE. Neither party hereto shall be responsible for any
failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement (other than obligations
to pay money or obligations under Section 8) if such failure is caused by acts
of God, war, strikes, revolutions, lack or failure
19
of transportation facilities, failure of telecommunications, fire, laws or
governmental regulations or other causes which are beyond the reasonable control
of such party. Obligations hereunder, however, shall in no event be excused but
shall be suspended only until the cessation of any cause of such failure, and
the corresponding obligations of the other party (including, notwithstanding the
above, payment obligations) shall be similarly suspended. In the event that such
force majeure should obstruct performance of this Agreement for more than thirty
(30) days, the parties hereto shall consult with each other to determine whether
this Agreement should be terminated. The party facing an event of force majeure
shall use its best endeavors in order to remedy that situation as well as to
minimize its effects. The party facing such event of force majeure shall notify
the other party by telefax immediately after its occurrence, to be promptly
confirmed by written notice.
13.15 SEVERABILITY. If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this
Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remainder of the
provisions will continue in full force and effect as if this Agreement had been
executed with the invalid portion eliminated. The parties further agree to
substitute for the invalid provision a valid provision that most closely
approximates the intent and economic effect of the invalid provision.
13.16 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute
one and the same instrument.
13.17 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. The parties hereto shall comply, each at its
own expense, with all applicable laws, rules and regulations of governmental
bodies and agencies, including all laws, rules and regulations affecting or
governing exports, in their performance under this Agreement.
13.18 CURRENCY REFERENCE. All references to dollars and payments to be made
herein shall be references to United States dollars calculated as of the first
business day of the applicable month unless expressly stated otherwise in the
applicable provision.
13.19 BARGAINED FOR BASIS. Each party specifically acknowledges and agrees
that the warranty disclaimers and liability and remedy limitations set forth in
this Agreement are material bargained for bases of this Agreement and that they
have been taken into account and reflected in determining the consideration to
be given by each party under this Agreement and in the decision by each party to
enter into this Agreement.

METROWERKS CURRENT TRADEMARK USAGE POLICY
1. BUSINESS PRACTICES Lineo covenants to Metrowerks that it shall:
1.1 conduct its business with respect to the Bundled Product(s) in a
manner that reflects favorably at all times on the good name, goodwill and
reputation of Metrowerks;
1.2 avoid deceptive, misleading or unethical practices that are
detrimental to Metrowerks or Lineo Customers;
1.3 make no false or misleading representations with regard to Metrowerks,
CodeWarrior Software or the Bundled Product(s); and
1.4 not publish or employ or cooperate in the publication or employment of
any misleading or deceptive advertising or promotional materials.
27
2. APPROVAL OF COMBINATION MARKS Lineo shall submit all proposed combination
marks of the Metrowerks Marks with any other trademarks, trade names, company
names or designations of source (collectively the "COMBINATION MARKS") to
Metrowerks for Metrowerks' approval, which Metrowerks shall not unreasonably
withhold. Metrowerks shall have a period of twenty (20) business days to deliver
to Lineo its written approval or rejection of any such Combination Marks. Lineo
shall not use any Combination Mark unless and until Lineo receives Metrowerks'
written approval of such Combination Mark or until such approval is deemed to be
given.
3. TRADEMARK USAGE GUIDELINES Lineo agrees that it shall not use the
Metrowerks Marks or Combination Marks other than as permitted by this Agreement
and that it shall conform to the requirements of Metrowerks (including, but not
limited to, thorough compliance with Metrowerks' trademark usage guidelines as
such guidelines may be amended from time to time) in relation to the use of the
Marks and the Combination Marks and on advertising, marketing and promotional
materials for the Bundled Product(s).
4. NO SIMILAR MARKS In marketing the Bundled Product(s), Lineo agrees not to
use any other trademark, trade name, or other designation of source which
creates a likelihood of confusion with the Metrowerks Marks.
5. NO HARM TO MARKS Lineo agrees that it shall take such steps as are
reasonably necessary to ensure that neither it, nor any person under its control
(including, but not limited to, Lineo Customers), takes or causes to be taken
any action that brings Metrowerks or the Metrowerks Marks into disrepute.
6. SOLE USE OF MARKS Lineo agrees that it shall not make use of the Metrowerks
Marks or Combination Marks in relation to any goods or services other than the
Bundled Product(s) and advertising and promotional materials in support of the
Bundled Product(s).
7. QUALITY; AUDITS Lineo acknowledges and agrees that Metrowerks shall have
the right to audit any Lineo operations from time to time to determine whether
or not its use of the Metrowerks Marks is in compliance with the terms of this
Agreement. In the event that Metrowerks reasonably determines that Lineo's use
of any Metrowerks Mark is not in compliance with the terms of this Agreement,
Metrowerks shall notify Lineo in writing of such determination, which notice
shall describe in reasonable detail the nature of such noncompliance. Upon
receiving such notice, Lineo shall have sixty (60) days to cure such
noncompliance. If Lineo has not cured such noncompliance within such sixty (60)
day period, Metrowerks may, by written notice to Lineo, suspend or terminate
Lineo's rights to use the affected Metrowerks Mark or all Metrowerks Marks. If
Lineo shall not have cured the noncompliance within an additional thirty (30)
days after receiving the notice referred to in the preceding sentence,
Metrowerks may, by written notice to Lineo, suspend or terminate Lineo's right
to distribute the Bundled Product(s).
8. REGISTRATION Lineo agrees that it shall not, directly or indirectly, in any
country or governing body, apply to register in its own name, or otherwise
attempt to acquire any legal interest in or right in or to, any Metrowerks Mark
or Combination Mark.
28
9. INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS Lineo agrees that it shall
promptly notify Metrowerks of any infringement or threatened infringement of
which Lineo becomes aware relating to any Metrowerks Mark. Any legal proceedings
instituted by Metrowerks in respect of an infringement or threatened
infringement of any Metrowerks Mark will be conducted at the Metrowerks' sole
expense, provided that Lineo, if requested to do so, shall join in and fully
co-operate at Metrowerks' expense in the conduct of such proceedings, including,
without limitation, making available to Metrowerks all information and
particulars relating to such infringement in the possession of Lineo and its
employees. All recoveries in any such proceeding shall belong solely to
Metrowerks.
10. TRADEMARK UNAVAILABILITY In the event that any Metrowerks Mark ceases to be
available for use in respect to the Bundled Product(s), except as the event
arises due to the action or inaction of Lineo, Lineo, as its sole remedy, shall
be released from any obligations to take any action in respect of or apply in
any manner such Metrowerks Mark unless and until the same becomes available for
such use.

shall for any reason be held by any tribunal of competent jurisdiction to
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this
Agreement shall be unimpaired, and each invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provision shall be treated by the tribunal as modified to the least extent
necessary to rectify its invalidity, illegality or unenforceability and

accepted industry standards. Any implied warranties are limited to the
90-day period. This Limited Warranty is void if failure of the Software has

jurisdictions do not allow limitations on duration of an implied warranty,
so the above limitation may not apply to you.
YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. Lineo's entire liability and your exclusive remedy
arising from a breach of the Limited Warranty is, at Lineo's option, either
repair or replacement of the non-conforming Software or reperformance of
the nonconforming Support Services, or return of the price you paid for the
non-conforming Software or Support Services. You must return all

INCLUDING, SPECIFICALLY, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY ARISING BY STATUTE OR
OTHERWISE IN LAW OR FROM A COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. LINEO
HEREBY EXCLUDES ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, OR OF

REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL
PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE, YOU FURTHER AGREE THAT LINEO SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO
YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES IN THE FORM OF CONSEQUENTIAL,
INCIDENTAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, LOST SAVINGS, BUSINESS
INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, LOSS OF
GOODWILL OR OTHERWISE, OR FOR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, RESULTING FROM YOUR USE OF
OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE OR FROM ANY SUPPORT SERVICES RENDERED WITH

DAMAGES. IN ANY CASE, THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF LINEO AND ITS SUPPLIERS UNDER
THIS AGREEMENT AND LIMITED WARRANTY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY
PAID BY YOU FOR THE SOFTWARE OR SUPPORT SERVICES THAT CAUSE THE DAMAGE.
BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

1. Grant of License. The application, demonstration, system and all other
software accompanying this License, whether on CD-ROM or any other media (the
"Software") and the related documentation are licensed to you by Metrowerks
according to the terms of this License. If you purchased or otherwise received
this Software packaged with any other host-platform versions of the same
software (e.g., a Macintosh(R)-hosted version with a Windows(R)-hosted version),
all such host-platform versions together shall constitute the "Software" for
purposes of this License. This License allows you to use each host-platform
version of the Software on a single computer corresponding to that host-platform
version, provided that you are the only individual using the Software. You may
also use a copy of the Software on a home or portable computer for each
host-platform, as long as that extra copy is never running at the same time the
Software is running on the primary computer for each host-platform on which you
use the Software. You may make one additional copy of the Software in the form
in which it is provided to you, only for backup purposes. You must reproduce on
all copies you make of the Software the Metrowerks copyright notice and any
other proprietary legends that are on the original copy of the Software. You may
also transfer to another party all your license rights in the Software and
related documentation by transferring to that party both the original media on
which the Software and related documentation were provided and a copy of this
License, provided that the other party reads and agrees to accept the terms and
conditions of this License. Immediately upon transfer, you have no further
rights to use or own copies of the Software or related documentation and must
destroy all copies in your possession or control. If this Software includes more
than one host-platform version, then any such transfer must include all
host-platform versions together. You may not transfer one host-platform version
alone without the other host-platform versions. If this Software is an upgrade
to a prior version, then you must be licensed to use the prior version of the
Software in order to exercise the license rights granted hereunder, and any
transfer of the Software must include all prior versions of the Software. If you
are a corporation or other organization, you must designate one individual to

2. Restrictions. The Software contains copyrighted material, trade secrets,
and other proprietary material of Metrowerks and its licensors. You agree that
in order to protect those proprietary materials, except as expressly permitted
by applicable legislation, you will not decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble
or otherwise reduce all or any part of the Software to human-readable form
unless Metrowerks provided it to you in human-readable form. You may not modify,
rent, lease, loan, distribute or create derivative works based upon the Software
in whole or in part, except as expressly permitted in Section 3. If the Software
is labeled as an academic version or is otherwise licensed to you for academic
use, you may not use the Software for commercial product development, but you
may use the Software to develop freeware or shareware. If the Software licensed
to you is part of the Discover Programming series or is labeled as a Learning
Edition, Evaluation Edition or Lite version, you may not use the Software to
develop any product for distribution, whether commercial, freeware, or
shareware. No press releases or any other public announcements regarding this
Software shall be made without the written consent of Metrowerks.
3. Software Modification and Redistribution. Appendix A to this License lists
the specific portions of the Software which you may distribute according to the
terms of this License ("Distributable Code"). If Metrowerks has provided
Distributable Code to you in human-readable form, you may modify the
Distributable Code and the resulting modifications will also be considered
Distributable Code. In order to protect Metrowerks' and Metrowerks' licensors'
intellectual property rights in the Software, you may modify and distribute
Distributable Code only according to the following terms: You may distribute
Distributable Code only in executable object code form and only as incorporated
into application programs you create using the Software and which have
substantial value in addition to the Distributable Code. You may distribute
Distributable Code incorporated in such applications to end users directly or
indirectly through dealers, distributors, VARs, OEMs and other relicensors, but
all distribution, whether to end users or relicensors, must be made pursuant to
a valid written agreement that is at least as protective of Metrowerks' and
Metrowerks' licensors' rights as this License. In no event shall you expand or
attempt to expand Metrowerks' warranty or other obligations for any portion of
the Software beyond those obligations set forth in this License nor extend those
obligations to end users or relicensors of your applications. Last, you must
reproduce on each copy of such applications a copyright notice that clearly
states: "Copyright (c) by [Licensee Name] and its Licensors." Under no
circumstances are you permitted to distribute any portions of the Software not
listed on Appendix A, nor to distribute any portions of the Software (including
those listed on Appendix A) in human-readable form, unless (i) specific license
terms that may accompany such portions of the Software on the media containing
the Software expressly authorize you to distribute such portions of the
Software, in object code or human-readable form as the case may be, or (ii) you
have express written authorization from an authorized officer of the company
which owns that portion of the Software. In the event you distribute such
portions of the Software based upon express authorization by one of the two
means stated, you must adhere strictly to the specific terms of such
authorization in addition to the terms of this license. You agree to indemnify
and hold Metrowerks harmless from any damages, costs, or expenses Metrowerks may
suffer as a result of your distribution, under either of the forms of permission
described in the previous sentence, of any portion of the Software owned by a
third party.
4. Ownership. The Software and documentation are licensed, not sold, to you
for use only under the terms of this License, and Metrowerks reserves all rights
not expressly granted to you in this
37
License. You own the media on which the Software and documentation are recorded
but Metrowerks and/or Metrowerks' licensors retain title to the Software and
related documentation, and all intellectual property rights therein.
5. Termination. This License is effective until terminated. You may terminate
this License at any time by destroying all copies of the Software and related
documentation in your possession or control. This License will terminate
immediately without notice from Metrowerks if you fail to comply with any
provision of this License. Upon termination you must destroy all copies of the
Software and related documentation in your possession or control.
6. Export Law Assurances. You agree and certify that neither the Software nor
any other technical data received from Metrowerks, nor the direct product
thereof, will be exported outside the United States except as authorized and as
permitted by the laws and regulations of the United States. If the Software has
been rightfully obtained by you outside of the United States, you agree that you
will not re-export the Software nor any other technical data received from
Metrowerks, nor the direct product thereof, except as permitted by the laws and
regulations of the United States and the laws and regulations of the
jurisdiction in which you obtained the Software.
7. Government End Users. If you are acquiring the Software and fonts on behalf
of any unit or agency of the United States Government, the following provisions
apply. The Software constitutes a "commercial item", as that term is defined at
48 C.F.R. 2.101, consisting of "commercial computer software" and "commercial
computer software documentation", as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212,
and is provided to the U.S. Government only as a commercial end item. Consistent
with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, all U.S.
Government End Users acquire the Software with only those rights set forth
herein.
8. Limited Warranty on Media. Metrowerks warrants the media on which the
Software is recorded to be free from defects in materials and workmanship under
normal use for a period of ninety (90) days from the date of purchase as
evidenced by a copy of the receipt. Metrowerks' entire liability and your
exclusive remedy will be replacement of the media not meeting Metrowerks limited
warranty returned to Metrowerks with a copy of the receipt. Metrowerks will have
no responsibility to replace any media damaged by accident, abuse or
misapplication. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES ON THE MEDIA, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED
