copy to: Motorola, Inc. Law Department 1303 E. Algonquin Road Schaumberg, IL 60196 Attention: General Counsel 6.8 REMEDIES; SEVERABILITY. It is specifically understood and agreed that any breach of the provisions of this Agreement by any person subject hereto will result in irreparable injury to the other parties hereto, that the remedy at law alone will be an inadequate remedy for such breach, and that, in addition to any other remedies which they may have, such other parties may enforce their respective rights by actions for specific performance (to the extent permitted by law). The Company may refuse to recognize any unauthorized transferee as one of its stockholders for any purpose, including, without limitation, for purposes of dividend and voting rights, until the relevant party or parties have complied with all applicable provisions of this Agreement. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed prohibited or invalid under such applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, and such prohibition or invalidity shall not invalidate the remainder of such provision or the other provisions of this Agreement. 6.9 MEDIATION AND ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION. In the event that after the date hereof, there is any dispute between the Investor and the Company, then the following procedure shall be followed: (a) Upon the occurrence of such a dispute either the Company or the Investor may by written notice (the "Initial Notice") to the other party call for the consideration of such dispute by the Company, on the one hand, and the general manager of the Metrowerks Division of Motorola's Semiconductor Products Sector ("SPS"), or such person's successor (such persons, the "Transaction Committee"). The Transaction Committee shall meet to discuss, review and attempt to resolve the dispute. The Transaction Committee may be assisted by other advisors, including accountants, attorneys, and employees, in its discussions and review. (b) If the Transaction Committee is unable to reach an agreement under clause (a) above within thirty (30) days of the Initial Notice, then each of the Investor and the Company shall call for a higher level resolution discussion, pursuant to which the Investor shall designate in writing by notice to the Company within ten (10) days after the expiration of such thirty (30) day period a higher level management employee which shall be the President of SPS, or an equivalent position, as the case may be, (a "High Level Management Employee") to discuss and attempt to resolve the dispute. Such High Level Management Employee may be assisted by other advisors, including accountants, attorneys, and employees, in his or her discussions and negotiations with the other party. The Company and the Investor agree to negotiate in good faith 17
EX-10.2518th Page of 50TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 18th
with one another for an additional period ending sixty (60) days after the date of the Initial Notice. (i) In the event the dispute remains unresolved after the passage of sixty (60) days after the date of the Initial Notice, then such parties may attempt to settle any claim or controversy arising out of it through consultation and negotiation in good faith and a spirit of mutual cooperation. If those attempts fail, then the dispute will be mediated by a mutually-acceptable mediator to be chosen by the Investor and the Company (the "Mediator"). Neither the Investor nor the Company may unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of a mediator, and the Investor and the Company will share the costs of the mediation equally. (c) Any dispute which the Investor and the Company cannot resolve through negotiation or mediation within ninety (90) days of the date of the initial demand for it by either the Investor or the Company may then be submitted to the courts within the State of Delaware for resolution. The use of any procedures under this Section 6.9 will not be construed under the doctrines of laches, waiver or estoppel to affect adversely the rights of either party, and nothing in this paragraph will prevent either the Company or the Investor from resorting to judicial proceedings if (a) good faith efforts to resolve the dispute under these procedures have been unsuccessful or (b) interim relief from a court is necessary to prevent serious and irreparable injury to one party or to others. (d) Notwithstanding any of the procedures set forth in this Section 6.9, any controversy involving intellectual property may be brought immediately to the federal courts within the State of Delaware for resolution without resorting to the Transaction Committee or mediation provisions set forth herein. 6.10 INDEMNIFICATION. The Company agrees to indemnify the Investor and the Investor's general partners, if any (collectively, the "Indemnitees"), from and after the Closing Date, and until the one year anniversary thereof, against any investigations, proceedings, claims or actions and for any expenses, damages, liabilities or losses (joint or several) arising out of such investigations, proceedings, claims or actions that arise out of or are based upon any breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant of the Company contained herein; provided, however, that any such indemnification shall be limited to the Purchase Price, and any sums paid upon exercise of the Warrant; and provided further that the Company's indemnification obligations hereunder against any investigations, proceedings, claims or actions and for any expenses, damages, liabilities or losses (joint or several) arising out of such investigations, proceedings, claims or actions that arise out of or are based upon any breach of the representations and warranties contained in Section 2.10(g) hereof shall survive indefinitely. Upon written request, the Company agrees to reimburse the Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such investigations, proceedings, claims or actions, as such expenses or other costs are incurred. The Indemnitee may select their own counsel. 18

METHOD OF EXERCISE 1.1 Cash Exercise Right This Warrant may be exercised by the Holder, at any time after the date issued, but not later than September __, 2002 (the "Exercise Period"), in whole or in part, by delivering to the Company at Lineo, Inc., 390 South 400 West, Lindon, UT 84042 (or such other office or agency of the Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the books of the Company) (a) this Warrant certificate, (b) a certified or cashier's check payable to the Company in the amount of the Per Share Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares for which this Warrant is being exercised Exhibit A 1
EX-10.2522nd Page of 50TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 22nd
(the "Purchase Price"), and (c) the Notice of Cash Exercise attached as Exhibit A duly completed and executed by the Holder. 1.2 NET ISSUANCE RIGHT Notwithstanding the payment provisions set forth above, the Holder may elect to convert this Warrant into Warrant Shares by surrendering this Warrant at the office of the Company at the address set forth in Section 1.1 and delivering to the Company the Notice of Net Issuance Exercise attached as Exhibit B duly completed and executed by the Holder, in which case the Company shall issue to the Holder the number of Warrant Shares of the Company equal to the result obtained by (a) subtracting B from A, (b) multiplying the difference by C, and (c) dividing the product by A as set forth in the following equation: X = (A - B) x C where: ----------- A X = the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon net issuance exercise pursuant to the provisions of this Section 1.2. A = the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of one Warrant Share on the date of net issuance exercise. B = the Per Share Exercise Price for one Warrant Share under this Warrant. C = the number of Warrant Shares as to which this Warrant is exercisable pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.1. If the foregoing calculation results in a negative number, then no Warrant Shares shall be issued upon net issuance exercise pursuant to this Section 1.2. "Fair Market Value" shall mean: (a) if a sale of securities or net issuance exercise is in connection with a transaction specified in Section 4.4(b), the value of the consideration (determined, in the case of noncash consideration, in accordance with Section 2(d) of that certain Certificate of Designation of the Company filed with the Delaware Secretary of State on May 3, 2000) to be received pursuant to such transaction by the holder of one Warrant Share; (b) if a sale of securities or net issuance exercise is in connection with the initial public offering or private placement of the Company's shares (the "Shares"), the price (before deducting commission, discounts or expenses) at which such securities are sold in such offering or private placement, proportionately adjusted as a result of any adjustments arising from the conversion of the Warrant Shares into Shares in contemplation of such public offering; Exhibit A 2

DELIVERY OF STOCK CERTIFICATES; NO FRACTIONAL SHARES 2.1 Within 10 days after the payment of the Purchase Price following the exercise of this Warrant (in whole or in part) or after notice of net issuance exercise and compliance with Section 1.2, the Company at its expense shall issue in the name of and deliver to the Holder (a) a certificate or certificates for the number of fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares to which the Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise, and (b) a new Warrant in substantially the same form to purchase up to that number of Warrant Shares, if any, as to which this Warrant has not been exercised if this Warrant has not expired. The Holder shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares on the date this Warrant was exercised (the date the Holder has fully complied with the requirements of Section 1.1 or 1.2), irrespective of the date of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares; provided that, if the date such exercise is made is a date when the stock transfer books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of such Warrant Shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on which the stock transfer books are open. 2.2 No fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, the Company shall pay the Holder a sum in cash equal to the fair market value of the fractional shares (as determined pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof) on the date of exercise. 3.

all steps necessary to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to provide sufficient reserves of Warrant Shares. 4. ADJUSTMENTS FOR CERTAIN DILUTIVE ISSUANCES The number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable and the exercise price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 4. 4.1 UPON ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK If the Company shall, at any time or from time to time after the date hereof (the "Original Issue Date"), issue (a) any shares of Common Stock other than options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock (other than an issuance of Common Stock as a dividend, subdivision or split in respect of which the adjustment provided for in Section 4.3 applies), (b) securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or (c) options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities, without consideration or for consideration per share less than the applicable Per Share Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Common Stock or securities, then such applicable Per Share Exercise Price shall forthwith be lowered to a price equal to the price obtained by multiplying: (i) the applicable Per Share Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such Common Stock or securities by (ii) a fraction of which (x) the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on a fully-diluted basis (after giving effect to the conversion or exercise, as the case may be, of all convertible securities, warrants, options, or other rights to purchase or acquire capital stock of the Company) immediately after such issuance and (y) the numerator shall be the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on a fully-diluted basis (after giving effect to the conversion or exercise, as the case may be, of all convertible securities, warrants, options, or other rights to purchase or acquire capital stock of the Company) immediately prior to the date of such issuance and (ii) the number of additional shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration for the number of shares of Common Stock so offered would purchase at the applicable Per Share Exercise Price. 4.2 PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO ADJUSTMENTS For the purposes of any adjustment of the applicable Per Share Exercise Price pursuant to Section 4.1, in the case of the issuance of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities: (A) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options or rights were Exhibit A 4

4.4 EFFECT OF REORGANIZATION (a) REORGANIZATION--NO CHANGE IN CONTROL Upon a merger, consolidation, acquisition of all or substantially all of the property or stock, liquidation or other reorganization of the Company (collectively, a "Reorganization") during the Exercise Period, as a result of which the stockholders of the Company receive cash, stock or other property in exchange for their Warrant Shares and the holders of the Company's voting equity securities immediately prior to such Reorganization together own a majority interest of the voting equity securities of the successor corporation following such Reorganization, lawful provision shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of securities of the successor corporation resulting from such Reorganization (and cash and other property), to which a holder of the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled in such Reorganization if this Warrant had been exercised immediately prior to such Reorganization. In any such case, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors and reasonably acceptable to the Holder) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interest of the Holder after the Reorganization to the end that the provisions of this Warrant (including adjustments of the Per Share Exercise Price and the number and type of securities purchasable pursuant to the terms of this Warrant) shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares deliverable after that event upon the exercise of this Warrant. (b) REORGANIZATION--CHANGE IN CONTROL; TERMINATION OF WARRANT Upon Reorganization during the Exercise Period, as a result of which the stockholders of the Company receive cash, stock or other property in exchange for their Warrant Shares and the holders of the Company's voting equity securities immediately prior to such Reorganization together own less than a majority interest of the voting equity securities of the successor corporation following such Reorganization, the Holder shall be given notice of such proposed action as provided in Section 7. The Holder may attend the meeting of the Company's stockholders at which such action is considered and voted upon. If the proposed action is approved according to applicable law by the stockholders of all corporations or other entities that are parties to the proposed action, the Holder shall be so notified in writing by the Company by registered or certified mail at least 10 days before its effectiveness. Notwithstanding the period of exercisability stated in Section 1.1 of this Warrant, this Warrant shall become forever null and void to the extent not exercised on or before 5:00 p.m., Pacific time, on the seventh day following the delivery of such notice; provided that if the Reorganization does not close, this Warrant shall not terminate and the Exercise Period shall continue as stated in Section 1.1 of this Warrant. 4.5 CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS In the case of any adjustment in the Per Share Exercise Price or number and type of securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company will promptly give written Exhibit A 6
EX-10.2527th Page of 50TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 27th
notice to the Holder in the form of a certificate, certified and confirmed by an officer of the Company, setting forth the adjustment in reasonable detail. 4.6 DEFERRAL IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES In any case in which the provisions of this Section 4 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date of an event, the Company may defer until the occurrence of such event issuing to the Holder of any Warrant exercised after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the shares of capital stock issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such event and issuing to such Holder only the shares of capital stock issuable upon such exercise before giving effect to such adjustments; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to such Holder an appropriate instrument or due bills evidencing such Holder's right to receive such additional shares. 4.7 APPRAISAL PROCEDURE In any case in which the provisions of this Section 4 shall necessitate that the Appraisal Procedure be utilized for purposes of determining an adjustment to the applicable Per Share Exercise Price, the Company may defer until the completion of the Appraisal Procedure and the determination of the adjustment (1) issuing to the Holder of any Warrant exercised after the date of the event that requires the adjustment and before completion of the Appraisal Procedure and the determination of the adjustment, the shares of capital stock issuable upon such exercise by reason of the adjustment required by such event and issuing to such Holder only the shares of capital stock issuable upon such exercise before giving effect to such adjustment and (2) paying to such Holder any amount in cash in lieu of a fractional share of capital stock pursuant to Section 2.2 above; provided, however, that the Company shall deliver to such Holder an appropriate instrument or due bills evidencing such Holder's right to receive such additional shares or cash. 4.8 ADJUSTMENT OF NUMBER OF SHARES PURCHASABLE Upon any adjustment of the applicable Per Share Exercise Price as provided in Section 4.1 and 4.3, the Holders of the Warrants shall thereafter be entitled to purchase upon the exercise thereof, at the applicable Per Share Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares of Common Stock obtained by multiplying the applicable Per Share Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the exercise hereof immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product thereof by the applicable Per Share Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment. 4.9 LOCK-UP AGREEMENT Holder agrees not to sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any securities of the Company issued pursuant to this Warrant for up to a maximum of 360 days following the effective date (the "Effective Date") of the Company's first firmly underwritten public Exhibit A 7

If the Effective Date occurs at any time after October 1, 2000, then the Holder acknowledges that the securities of the Company issued pursuant to this Warrant are subject only to lock-up pursuant to that certain Investor Rights Agreement dated as of February 17, 2000, by and among the Company and the parties thereto, as amended by Amendment No. 3, of even date herewith (the "Rights Agreement").

10.4 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS Any term of this Warrant may be amended and the observance of any term may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written consent of the Company and the holders of Warrants to purchase a majority of the Warrant Shares. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section 10.4 shall be binding on each future Holder and the Company. 10.5 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; VENUE This Warrant shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the state of Delaware without regard to principles of conflict of laws. 10.6 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS; TRANSFER The terms and conditions of this Warrant shall inure to the benefit of and be binding on the respective successors and assigns of the parties. This Warrant may not be transferred or assigned without the consent of the Company. 10.7 APPRAISAL PROCEDURE "Appraisal Procedure," if applicable, means the following procedure to determine the fair market value, as to any security, for purposes of the definition of "Fair Market Value" or the fair market value, as to any other property (in either case, the "valuation amount"). The valuation amount shall be determined in good faith jointly by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") and the Holder; provided, however, that if such parties are not able to agree on the valuation amount within a reasonable period of time (not to exceed twenty (20) days) the valuation amount shall be determined by an investment banking firm of national recognition, which firm shall be reasonably acceptable to the Board and the Holder. If the Board and the Holder are unable to agree upon an acceptable investment banking firm within ten (10) days after the date either party proposed that one be selected, the investment banking firm will be selected by an arbitrator located in San Francisco, California, selected by the American Arbitration Association (or if such organization ceases to exist, the arbitrator shall be chosen by a court of competent jurisdiction). The arbitrator shall select the investment banking firm (within ten (10) days of his appointment) from a list, jointly prepared by the Board and the Holder, of not more than six investment banking firms of national standing in the United States, of which no more than three may be named by the Board and no more than three may be named by the Holder. The arbitrator may consider, within the ten-day period allotted, arguments from the parties regarding which investment banking firm to choose, but the selection by the arbitrator shall be made in its sole discretion from the list of six. The Board and the Holder shall submit their respective valuations and other relevant data to the investment banking firm, and the investment banking firm shall as soon as practicable thereafter make its own determination of the valuation amount. The final valuation amount for purposes hereof shall be the average of the two valuation amounts closest together, as determined by the investment banking firm, from among the valuation amounts submitted by the Company and the Holder and the valuation amount calculated by the investment banking Exhibit A 11
EX-10.2532nd Page of 50TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 32nd
firm. The determination of the final valuation amount by such investment banking firm shall be final and binding upon the parties. The Company shall pay the fees and expenses of the investment banking firm and arbitrator (if any) used to determine the valuation amount. If required by any such investment banking firm or arbitrator, the Company shall execute a retainer and engagement letter containing reasonable terms and conditions, including, without limitation, customary provisions concerning the rights of indemnification and contribution by the Company in favor of such investment banking firm or arbitrator and its officers, directors, partners, employees, agents and affiliates.

SECTION 2.12 LITIGATION: Although Lineo does not have any pending litigation, one of Lineo's suppliers, Viosoft, Inc., has threatened to take action in response to Lineo's contention that Viosoft breached a development contract with Lineo. The contract, dated November 4, 1999, required Viosoft to develop and ship to Lineo a customer ready version of its IDE in April 2000. Viosoft failed to do so. Lineo gave Viosoft notice of the breach and Viosoft failed to cure the breach, so on June 29, 2000, Lineo gave Viosoft notice of termination of the contract. Including annual commitments, Lineo's total obligation under the contract for payments to Viosoft would have been $450,000 of which Lineo has already paid $112,500. Lineo has demanded repayment of this amount. Lineo believes that Viosoft has no valid claim against Lineo and if litigation arises, Lineo intends to defend itself vigorously and seek damages from Viosoft. Regardless of the outcome of any litigation, Lineo does not believe it will have a material adverse impact on Lineo's business or its financial health. Lineo has not yet determined whether it will initiate a lawsuit.
