(a) General. All sales, use and other transfer taxes imposed directly on or solely as a result of the supplying of Conforming Wafers, Pre-Qual Engineering Wafers and Non-Conforming Wafers to the Purchaser and the payments therefor provided herein shall be stated separately on Inotera’s Invoices, collected from the Purchaser and shall be remitted by Inotera to the appropriate tax authority (“Recoverable Taxes”), unless the Purchaser provides valid proof of tax exemption prior to the effective date of the transfer of the Conforming Wafers, Pre-Qual Engineering Wafers and Non-Conforming Wafers or otherwise as permitted by Applicable Law prior to the time Inotera is required to pay such taxes to the appropriate tax authority. When property is delivered and/or services are provided, or the benefit of services occurs, within jurisdictions in which collection of taxes from the Purchaser and remittance of taxes by Inotera is required by Applicable Law, Inotera shall have sole responsibility for payment of said taxes to the appropriate tax authorities. In the event such taxes are Recoverable Taxes and Inotera does not collect tax from the Purchaser, or pay such taxes to the appropriate governmental entity on a timely basis, and is subsequently audited by any tax authority, liability of the Purchaser shall be limited to the tax assessment for such Recoverable Taxes with no reimbursement for penalty or interest charges or other amounts incurred in connection therewith. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, taxes other than Recoverable Taxes shall not be reimbursed by the Purchaser, and each of the Purchaser and Inotera is responsible for its own respective income taxes (including franchise and other taxes based on net income or a variation thereof), taxes based upon gross revenues or receipts and taxes with respect to general overhead, including business and occupation taxes, and such taxes shall not be Recoverable Taxes.
(b) Withholding Taxes. In the event that the Purchaser is prohibited by Applicable Law from making payments to Inotera unless the Purchaser deducts or withholds taxes therefrom and remits such taxes to the local taxing jurisdiction, then the Purchaser shall duly withhold and remit such taxes and shall pay to Inotera the remaining net amount after the taxes have been withheld. Such taxes shall not be Recoverable Taxes and the Purchaser shall not reimburse Inotera for the amount of such taxes withheld.

CONFIDENTIAL
(a) Promptly after the receipt by any Purchaser Indemnified Party or Inotera (an “Indemnified Party”) of a notice of any Third Party Claim that may be subject to indemnification under Section 9.1, such Indemnified Party shall give written notice of such Third Party Claim to the Party obligated to provide such indemnification under Section 9.1 (an “Indemnifying Party”), stating in reasonable detail the nature and basis of each allegation made in the Third Party Claim and the amount of potential Indemnified Losses with respect to each allegation, to the extent known, along with copies of the relevant documents received by the Indemnified Party evidencing the Third Party Claim and the basis for indemnification sought. Failure of the Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability on account of this indemnification, except if, and only to the extent that, the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure or delay. Thereafter, the Indemnified Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after the Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party relating to the Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim upon written notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within thirty (30) days after receipt of the particular notice from the Indemnified Party. So long as the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance herewith and notified the Indemnified Party in writing thereof, (i) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel, at its sole cost and expense, and participate in the defense of the Third Party Claim, it being understood that the Indemnifying Party shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses of counsel for the Indemnified Party after such time as the Indemnified Party has notified the Indemnifying Party of such Third Party Claim and prior to such time as the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party that it has assumed the defense of such Third Party Claim, (ii) the Indemnified Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (iii) the Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim (other than a judgment or settlement that is solely for money damages and is accompanied by a release of all indemnifiable claims against the Indemnified Party) without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).
(b) Equitable Remedies. In the case of any Third Party Claim where the Indemnifying Party reasonably believes that it would be appropriate to settle such Third Party Claim using equitable remedies (i.e., remedies involving future activity of the Indemnified Party), the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall work together in good faith to agree to a settlement; provided, however, that no Party shall be under any obligation to agree to any such settlement.
(c) Treatment of Indemnification Payments; Insurance Recoveries. Any indemnity payment under this Agreement shall be decreased by any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under Third Party insurance policies with respect to such Indemnified Losses (net of any premiums paid by such Indemnified Party under the relevant insurance policy). Each Party agrees (i) to use all reasonable efforts to recover all available insurance proceeds and (ii) to

(d) Certain Additional Procedures. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate and assist the Indemnifying Party in determining the validity of any Third Party Claim and in otherwise resolving such matters. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate in the defense by the Indemnifying Party of each Third Party Claim (and the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party agree with respect to all such Third Party Claims that a common interest privilege agreement exists between them), including: (i) permitting the Indemnifying Party to discuss the Third Party Claim with such officers, employees, consultants and representatives of the Indemnified Party as the Indemnifying Party reasonably requests; (ii) providing to the Indemnifying Party copies of documents and samples of products as the Indemnifying Party reasonably requests in connection with defending such Third Party Claim; (iii) preserving all properties, books, records, papers, documents, plans, drawings, electronic mail and databases of the Indemnifying Party and relating to matters pertinent to the conduct of the Indemnifying Party under the Indemnified Party’s custody or control in accordance with such Party’s corporate documents retention policies, or longer to the extent reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party; (iv) notifying the Indemnifying Party promptly of receipt by the Indemnified Party of any subpoena or other Third Party request for documents or interviews and testimony; (v) providing to the Indemnifying Party copies of any documents produced by the Indemnified Party in response to or compliance with any subpoena or other Third Party request for documents; and (vi) except to the extent inconsistent with the Indemnified Party’s obligations under Applicable Law and except to the extent that to do so would subject the Indemnified Party or its employees, agents or representatives to criminal or civil sanctions, unless ordered by a court to do otherwise, not producing documents to a Third Party until the Indemnifying Party has been provided a reasonable opportunity to review, copy and assert privileges covering such documents.

ARTICLE 12
MISCELLANEOUS
12.1 Force Majeure Events. The Parties shall be excused from any failure to perform any obligation hereunder to the extent such failure is caused by a Force Majeure Event. A Force Majeure Event shall operate to excuse a failure to perform an obligation hereunder only for the period of time during which the Force Majeure Event renders performance impossible or infeasible and only if the Party asserting Force Majeure as an excuse for its failure to perform has provided written notice to, in the event of an assertion by Micron or the Purchaser, Inotera and, in the event of an assertion by Inotera, Micron and the Purchaser specifying the obligation to be excused and describing the events or conditions constituting the Force Majeure Event.
12.2 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage will result if this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms, and the Parties agree that any damages available under the indemnification provisions or at law for a breach of this Agreement would not be an adequate remedy. Therefore, the provisions hereof and the obligations of the Parties hereunder shall be enforceable in a court of equity, or other tribunal with jurisdiction, by a decree of specific performance, and appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection therewith.
12.3 Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of each Party hereto; provided, however, neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned or delegated by any Party in whole or in part to any other Person without the prior written consent of the nonassigning Parties.

12.6 Waiver. The failure at any time of a Party to require performance by another Party of any responsibility or obligation required by this Agreement shall in no way affect a Party’s right to require such performance at any time thereafter, nor shall the waiver by a Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by another Party constitute a waiver of any other breach of the same or any other provision nor constitute a waiver of the responsibility or obligation itself.
