Exhibit 10.16
Integration and Purchase Agreement
This Integration and Purchase Agreement (hereinafter the “Agreement”) is entered into as of March 15, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), by and between SiTime Corporation, a Delaware corporation, having its principal place of business at 5451 Patrick Henry Drive, Santa Clara, California 95054, (“SiTime” or“Seller”) and MegaChips Corporation, a Japanese corporation, having its registered address at:1-1-1, Miyahara, Yodogawa, Osaka532-0003, Japan, (“MCC” or“Buyer”). Buyer and Seller each may be referred to individually as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties.”
WHEREAS, Buyer is engaged in, among other things, the business of developing, designing, manufacturing and selling integrated circuits and wafers in the semiconductor marketplace;
WHEREAS, Seller is engaged in, among other things, the business of designing and manufacturing oscillators, timing chips, and MEMS resonators;
WHEREAS, Buyer desires to design, develop, and produce (a) product line(s) (as defined in Exhibit B) that incorporate Buyer’s CMOS die and SiTime’s MEMS Resonator (as defined in Exhibit A); and WHEREAS, the Parties desire to enter into an agreement whereby Seller will supply to Buyer (1) certain Resonators for use in Buyer’s products and (2) a license to use certain Circuits with the Resonator;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements of the Parties set forth below, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:
| 2.1 | This Agreement applies solely to the supply of Seller’s MEMS resonator die product (the “Resonator”) as described in Exhibit A and a license to use Seller’s proprietary circuits (the “Circuits”) as described in Exhibit E with the Resonator. Additional Seller MEMS resonators may be added to this Agreement by applicable amendments executed by the Parties, setting forth any terms and conditions specific to such additional resonators. Consistent with the rights granted in Section 15.3, Buyer’s use of the Resonator, the Circuits, and corresponding documentation is limited solely to the integration of the Resonator, or the Resonator and the Circuits into Buyer’s product family as specified in Exhibit B. While the Resonator can be used with any of Buyer’s product under the conditions specified in Exhibit B, the Circuits can only be used in conjunction with a corresponding instance or instances of the Resonator. The Parties may subsequently agree to extend the terms and conditions of this Agreement to the supply of new resonator products and/or integration of the Resonator into other Buyer products by executing additional written amendments hereto, expressly setting forth such intent and any additional or unique terms and conditions. |
| 3.1 | This Agreement shall begin on the Effective Date and shall continue until March 15, 2025, unless terminated earlier in accordance with Section 17 (the “Initial Term”). After the initial term, this Agreement shall automatically renew until either Party decides to terminate the agreement for convenience as described in Section 17.1. |
