You agree that you shall indemnify and hold BROADCOM harmless for any liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs) arising from or relating to your failure to comply with any such law or regulation or to obtain any such license, permit or approval.
You may not attempt to obtain the source code for the Software (except for the source code provided) by any means, including but not limited to reverse engineering, decompilation, disassembly, translation or similar manipulation of the Software, unless and only to the extent that applicable law in your jurisdiction specifically gives you the right to do any of the foregoing.
4. LIMITED WARRANTY.

THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
6. INDEMNIFICATION. You will indemnify, defend and hold harmless BROADCOM and its employees, directors, representatives and agents ("Indemnified Parties") for all losses, damages and all reasonable expenses and costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by them in any third party claim, suit or proceeding based upon use or distribution of the Developer Programs or upon your breach of your obligations under this Agreement; provided that the Indemnified Parties give you written notice of any such claim, suit or proceeding within a reasonable time and control of the defense thereof.
7. SUPPORT. Please refer to BROADCOM’s website at www.Broadcom.com for the current terms of any support BROADCOM elects to make available. In the event that BROADCOM elects to provide upgrades to the Software in connection with any such support, such upgrades shall be included within the definition of Software and shall be provided subject to the rights and restrictions set forth in this Agreement. You shall, at it your own expense, be solely responsible for providing technical support and training to your customers for Developer Programs and/or Software, and BROADCOM shall have no obligation with respect thereto.

8. CONFIDENTIALITY. The SDK contains proprietary and confidential technology and information of BROADCOM. Accordingly, you must limit access to the SDK to those of your employees who need to use the SDK for purposes permitted hereunder and who have been clearly informed of their obligation to maintain the confidentiality of the SDK. In addition, you must treat the Software and Documentation as strictly confidential and you must use the same care to protect it from unauthorized use, access or disclosure as you use to protect your own confidential and proprietary information, but never less than the care a reasonable person would use under similar circumstances. Any breach of this Section 8 would cause irreparable injury to BROADCOM for which no adequate remedy at law exists. Therefore, you agree that equitable remedies, including injunctive relief and specific performance, are appropriate remedies to redress any breach or threatened breach of this Section 8, in addition to all other remedies available to BROADCOM. You will not directly or indirectly disclose or provide a copy of SDK to any other wireless silicon solution provider.
9. TERMINATION. Broadcom may terminate this Agreement at any time if you breach this Agreement or any terms and conditions herein and you have failed to immediately cure such breach. Upon termination, you will immediately destroy or return all copies of the SDK and documentation.
0. U.S. GOVERNMENT RESTRICTED RIGHTS. The Software and Documentation are commercial products, developed at private expense, and provided with restricted rights. Use, reproduction, release, modification or disclosure of the Software or Documentation, or any part thereof, including technical data, by the Government is restricted in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation ("FAR") 12.212 for civilian agencies and Defense ("DFARS") 227.7202 for military agencies. The Software and Documentation are "commercial items," as that term is defined in 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 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, all U.S. Government End Users acquire Software and Documentation with only those rights set forth in this Agreement.
11. MISCELLANEOUS. The laws of the state of California govern this Agreement, and it shall inure to the benefit of BROADCOM, its successors, administrators, heirs and assigns. In any action regarding this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to receive, in addition to any other relief, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses. If one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall be unenforceable, then such provision shall be considered inoperative to the extent of such enforceability and the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. The parties hereto agree to replace any such invalid or unenforceable provision with a new provision that has the most nearly similar permissible economic or other effect. You may not assign, delegate or otherwise transfer, whether by agreement, operation of law or otherwise, any right or obligation hereunder without the express prior written consent of BROADCOM, and any attempted assignment, delegation or transfer without such consent shall be void. This Agreement supersedes all prior or contemporaneous proposals, representations, warranties, promises and other communications, whether oral or written, relating to the Software and Documentation. This Agreement may not be amended or modified, except by a written document signed by an authorized representative of each party. Any term or condition in any purchase order or other document you may submit to BROADCOM will have no legal effect.
12. ACKNOWLEDGMENT. You acknowledge that you have read this Agreement, understand it, and agree to its terms and conditions. You also agree that this Agreement covers any merged or partial copies of the Software and is the complete and exclusive Agreement between the parties and supersedes all related proposals, communications or prior agreements, oral or written.
