and conditions of this Agreement.

Licensee shall not be required to disclose its Derivative Works of the
Source Code to Broadcom. Broadcom shall have no obligations whatsoever
to support, maintain, contribute to, or provide Updates, New Versions
or any modifications to Licensee Derivative Works of the Source Code
and shall have no liability whatsoever for such Derivative Works. In
the event Licensee requests Broadcom's input regarding Licensee
Derivative Works of Source Code and plans to disclose such Derivative
Works to Broadcom, a separate written agreement shall first be
executed by the parties.
3.5. Broadcom Derivative Works. Nothing contained herein shall prevent
Broadcom from creating any Derivative Works of its Source Code at any
time. Licensee further agrees that Broadcom may independently create a
Derivative Work similar to or in competition with the Licensee

its own Source Code that Licensee may believe or claim infringes on
any of Licensee's Intellectual Property Rights relating to the
Licensee Derivative Works of the Source Code.
3.6. U.S. Government Subsequent Users. All Licensed Code and Documentation
qualify as "commercial items," 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. Consistent with 48 CFR 52.227-19, 48 C.F.R.12.212
and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, Licensee will provide to
U.S. Government end users such Binary Code with only those rights set
forth herein that apply to non-governmental end users. Use of such
Binary Code constitutes agreement by the government entity that the
computer software and computer software documentation is commercial
and constitutes acceptance of the rights and restrictions herein.
3.7. No Implied Licenses. Except for the express and limited licenses
granted herein for specific purposes, no rights or licenses are
granted by Broadcom under this Agreement, by implication, inducement,
estoppel or otherwise with respect to any proprietary information or
to any patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks, maskworks or
other Intellectual Property Rights owned or controlled by Broadcom.
Any further licenses must be express, in writing and signed by an
authorized representative of Broadcom.
3.8. Injunctive Relief. In the event of a breach by Licensee of Section 2
or 3, Broadcom shall be entitled to applicable injunctive relief and
to all remedies available in equity and law to prevent Licensee from
disassembling, de-compiling, reverse engineering, disclosing or using
the Licensed Code in whole or in part.
3.9. Licensed Code Containing JRE. Certain Licensed Code may contain JRE.
Use of the JRE is restricted by JRE licensing terms to General Purpose
Desktop Computers and Servers, as defined below. Licensee may seek its
own license for the JRE directly with the owner, if it deems
necessary. "General Purposes Desktop Computers and Servers" under JRE
licensing terms is defined as "computers, including desktop, laptop
and tablet computers, or servers, used for general computing functions
under end user control (such as but not specifically limited to email,
general purpose Internet browsing and office suite productivity
tools)". The full terms and conditions for use of the JRE are
available at: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/terms/license/index.html.
3.10. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the
extent there is a conflict between this Agreement provisions and any
applicable license to open source technology, the provisions of the
open source license shall take precedence and be followed, but only
to the minimum extent reasonably necessary to comply with the
applicable open source license.
4. Confidentiality
4.1 Licensee agrees to limit access to the Licensed Code and Documentation
to employees and contractors of Licensee (which may include, without
limitation, contractors retained by Licensee to maintain or modify the
Licensed Code and Documentation on behalf of Licensee) having a need to
access or know the Licensed Code and Documentation and who have
executed nondisclosure agreements with Licensee obligating them to
maintain the confidentiality of the Licensed Code and Documentation.
4.2 Licensee shall hold in confidence the Licensed Code and Documentation
as Broadcom's confidential information ("Confidential Information") and
shall use the Broadcom Code and Documentation only as expressly
provided in Section 2, and protect the confidentiality of such
Confidential Information with the same degree of care as Licensee uses
to protect its own confidential or proprietary information of great
commercial value, but in no event less than reasonable care and for no
less than three (3) years from the date of disclosure.
4.3 Licensee agrees to notify Broadcom immediately after Licensee becomes
aware of any suspected misuse or unauthorized disclosure of any
Confidential Information. The obligations of confidentiality imposed on
Licensee under this Section 4 shall not apply or shall cease to apply
to any of such Confidential Information that Licensee clearly
