3.License Fee; Support Fee.
3.1.In consideration for the License, and subject to the terms of this Agreement, SPACEX shall pay to Parent an aggregate amount equal to $5,000,000 (the “License Fee”), which amount will be payable in two equal tranches of $2,500,000 each as described below: (a) first, within 3 business days following the date that VELO3D has initiated the delivery of Velo3D Technology set forth on Addendum A, and (b) within 3 business days following the date that VELO3D certifies in writing to SPACE X that it has complied with its obligations to deliver the items listed on Addendum A.
3.2.In consideration for VELO3D’s provision of the Services, SPACEX shall pay to Parent an aggregate amount equal to $3,000,000 (the “Services Fee”, and, together with the
License Fee, collectively, the “Fees”), which amount will be invoiced in arrears, based on actual Services provided, every two weeks by VELO3D for the pro rata portion of the Services performed during such two-week period, which invoiced amounts will be payable within 3 business days following the receipt of invoice.

For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that SPACEX has not received all of the Services by the Service Target Date, VELO3D will continue to provide the Services in accordance with Addendum A until completed or this Agreement is otherwise terminated in accordance with its terms, it being acknowledged, however, that (a) the Services Fee will, nonetheless, be payable as described above, and (b) SPACEX will not be obligated to pay any fees or expenses for such remaining Services in excess of the Services Fee.
3.3.For all payments of Fees contemplated herein, Parent shall invoice SPACEX, and SPACEX shall submit a wire transfer to the account identified in advance by VELO3D.
3.4.The Fees contemplated herein exclude any taxes that relate to or arise from a transaction hereunder, including sales, use, and value added taxes. As between the Parties, VELO3D is solely responsible for all such taxes. VELO3D agrees to provide SPACEX with information or certificates (including an IRS Form W-9) it may reasonably request in order for SPACEX to comply with any withholding obligations.
3.5.For clarity, in consideration of, and as a material inducement to, SPACEX entering into this Agreement and agreeing to pay the License Fee in accordance with the terms hereof, the License shall continue in perpetuity except as otherwise provided in Section 4.2.
3.6.In the event that VELO3D breaches its obligations hereunder, SPACEX may, at its election, withhold payment of any applicable portion of the Fees that were not paid as of the time of such breach until VELO3D has cured the breach.
3.7.Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, SPACEX shall not be required to pay any fees hereunder until and unless it has received evidence that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby have been affirmatively consented to by the Trustee.
4.1.This Agreement is effective from the Effective Date and continues until terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
4.2.Parent may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to SPACEX in the event of (a) any material misappropriation or infringement of VELO3D IP or material use of the VELO3D Technology other than as strictly permitted under the License or (b) any other uncured material breach by SPACEX of this Agreement of which, in the case of each of the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) SPACEX has been notified by Parent in writing and has not cured within 30 days of said notification. SPACEX may terminate this Agreement (i) in the event of any uncured material breach by VELO3D of this Agreement
of which VELO3D has been notified by SPACEX in writing and has not cured within 30 days of said notification or (ii) at any time after payment by SPACEX in full of all Fees due hereunder by providing written notice to Parent.
4.3.In the event this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 4.2 for SPACEX’s failure to pay the License Fee, the License and any other rights granted to SPACEX, including SPACEX’s right to retain the VELO3D Technology and VELO3D’s obligation to perform any Services shall automatically terminate. Other than the foregoing, no termination of any kind pursuant to this Section 4 or otherwise shall affect SPACEX’s right to retain the VELO3D Technology and the License forever and, if SPACEX breaches its obligations to VELO3D, VELO3D’s sole remedy is a claim of money damages at law, and VELO3D shall have no right to terminate the License. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that SPACEX breaches its obligation to pay the Services Fees and VELO3D terminates in accordance with Section 4.2, then VELO3D may terminate any then unperformed Services, in addition to seeking damages at law. In the event of termination for any reason, all definitions in this Agreement and any other terms of this Agreement that by their nature extend beyond its termination shall survive termination of this Agreement.
5.Bankruptcy. All rights and licenses granted by VELO3D to SPACEX under this Agreement are and will be deemed to be rights and licenses to “intellectual property” as such term is used in, and interpreted under, Section 365(n) of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) (11 U.S.C. § 365(n)).

5.1.subject to SPACEX’s rights of election under Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code, all rights, licenses, and privileges granted to SPACEX under this Agreement will continue subject to the respective terms and conditions hereof, and will not be affected, even by VELO3D’s (or any trustee’s) rejection of this Agreement; and
5.2.SPACEX shall be entitled to a complete duplicate of, or complete access to, as appropriate, all such intellectual property and embodiments of intellectual property subject to the License, which, if not already in SPACEX’s possession, shall be promptly delivered to SPACEX or its designee, unless VELO3D (or any trustee) elects to and does in fact continue to perform all of its obligations under this Agreement.
6.Maintenance and Support. VELO3D will perform the Services in accordance with Section 8.2. VELO3D will not have any obligation to provide to SPACEX or its sublicensees any other maintenance, support, or training, except as otherwise provided herein.
