(a) Supplier will, at its expense, indemnify, defend (or settle) and hold harmless Square, and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and Affiliates, and Authorized Purchasers (collectively, the “Square Indemnitees”) from and against any loss, damage, cost, liability, and expense (including reasonable fees for attorneys and other experts), as incurred, arising out of or resulting from any suit, action, claim or proceeding (each a “Claim”) brought by a third party against any Square Indemnitees alleging that: (i) any Product or the use or sale thereof by a Square Indemnitee, infringes, misappropriates or violates any third-party Intellectual Property Rights, applicable law and/or regulations, including without limitation any noncompliance in connection with customs brokerage (except to the extent that (A) such infringement, misappropriation, or violation was caused by Square Technology incorporated in the Products at Square’s request or Specifications; or that the infringement was caused by the combination of Products delivered hereunder with equipment, devices or software not contemplated in this Agreement, or (B) Square’s use of Products delivered hereunder in a manner not contemplated in this Agreement, or (C) modification by Square or an Authorized Purchaser of Products delivered hereunder to the extent such modification is the cause of the Claim); and (ii) the use of any Product results in personal injury, death or tangible or real property damage or loss of use therefrom, including, without limitation, any Claim that alleges a defect in the design, testing or manufacture of a Product, regardless of the legal or statutory bases of the Claim except to the extent that the Claim was caused by Square Technology or improper maintenance or improper modification of the Products by Square or an Authorized Purchaser.

(b) Square agrees to: (i) promptly notify Supplier in writing of any such Claim; (ii) provide Supplier, at Supplier’s expense, any assistance reasonably requested by

***	Certain information in this agreement has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. [***] indicates that text has been omitted and is the subject of a confidential treatment request.

Supplier and necessary for the defense or settlement of such Claim; and (iii) allow Supplier to direct and control the defense or settlement of such Claim, provided, however, that Square reserves the right to retain counsel to participate in any Claim for which indemnification is sought, at Square’s expense.

(c) Without limiting Supplier’s obligations in Section 10.1(a), if an injunction is issued that limits or prohibits a Square Indemnitee’s right to use or sell a Product or, if in Supplier’s reasonable opinion, such an injunction is likely to be issued, then Supplier will, at its expense, either: (i) procure for the Square Indemnitee the right to continue to use and sell Product; (ii) replace or modify such Product so that it becomes non-infringing, provided that such modification or replacement does not alter or affect the functionality, use or operation of such Product or the conformity of the Product with the applicable Specifications; or (iii) if the alternatives set forth in (a) and (b) are not commercially feasible, refund to Square any amounts paid for such Product pursuant to this Agreement upon Square’s return of such Product to Supplier.

10.2. Square Indemnity.

(a) Square will, at its expense, indemnify, defend (or settle) and hold harmless Supplier, and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and Affiliates (collectively, the “Supplier Indemnitees”) from any Claims brought by a third party against any Supplier Indemnitees alleging that any Square Intellectual Property Rights incorporated into the Products at Square’s request infringe, misappropriate or violate any third-party Intellectual Property Rights (except to the extent that (i) such infringement, misappropriation, or violation was caused by Supplier Intellectual Property Rights incorporated in the Products; or that the infringement was caused by the combination of Products delivered hereunder with equipment, devices or software not contemplated in this Agreement, or (ii) Supplier or third party use of Products delivered hereunder in a manner not contemplated in this Agreement, or (iii) modification by Supplier or third party of Products delivered hereunder to the extent such modification is the cause of the Claim). Supplier agrees to: (A) promptly notify Square in writing of any such Claim; (B) provide Square, at Square’s expense, any assistance reasonably requested by Square and necessary for the defense or settlement of such Claim; and (C) allow Square to direct and control the defense or settlement of such Claim, provided, however, that Supplier reserves the right to retain counsel to participate in any Claim for which indemnification is sought, at Supplier’s expense.

(b) If Square has any reason to believe that Square Technology may infringe misappropriate or violate any third-party Intellectual Property Rights, then Square shall so notify Supplier, and Supplier shall, upon receipt of such notice, immediately cease incorporating the Square Technology into the Products and cooperate with Square to identify a workable design-around or other solution acceptable to Square.

11. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT AND EXCEPT FOR LIABILITY ARISING UNDER SECTION 9.4 (EXCESSIVE FAILURE, ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE FAILURE AND SAFETY RISK), SECTION 10 (INDEMNITY), A BREACH BY EITHER PARTY OF SECTION 12 (CONFIDENTIALITY), OR SUPPLIER’S INFRINGEMENT OR

WITH THE EXCEPTION OF DAMAGES CAUSED BY BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY, FRAUD, OR BY INTENTIONAL OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, ALL DAMAGES, INCLUDING THOSE UNDER SECTION 10 (INDEMNITY), WILL BE CAPPED AT AN AMOUNT OF (A) [***] OR (B) THE AGGREGATE AMOUNTS PAID BY SQUARE AND ITS AUTHORIZED PURCHASERS TO SUPPLIER DURING THE [***] PRECEDING THE CLAIM, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

12. CONFIDENTIALITY

12.1. Definition. “Confidential Information” means: (a) all information related to the Development Deliverables and Products, including, without limitation, documentation, drawings, Designs and Specifications; (b) any non-public information of a Party, including, without limitation, any information relating to a Party’s technology, techniques, know-how, research, engineering, designs, finances, accounts, procurement requirements, manufacturing, customer lists, business forecasts and marketing plans; (c) any other information of a Party that is disclosed in writing and is conspicuously designated as “Confidential” at the time of disclosure as confidential or that would appear to a reasonable person in light of the circumstances surrounding its disclosure to be confidential; and (d) the specific terms and pricing set forth in this Agreement. Without limitation the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge and agree that the read head Specifications shall be deemed Square Confidential Information

12.2. Exclusions. The obligations in Section 12.3 will not apply to the extent that any Confidential Information: (a) is or becomes generally known to the public through no fault of or breach of this Agreement by the receiving Party; (b) was rightfully in the receiving Party’s possession at the time of disclosure, without an obligation of confidentiality; (c) is independently developed by the receiving Party without use of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; or (d) is rightfully obtained by the receiving Party from a third party without restriction on use or disclosure.

12.3. Obligations. Neither Party will use the other Party’s Confidential Information, except as necessary for the performance of this Agreement, and will not disclose such Confidential Information to any third party, except to those of its employees, agents, Affiliates, and subcontractors that need to know such Confidential Information for the performance of this Agreement, provided that each such permitted recipient is subject to a written agreement that includes binding use and disclosure restrictions that are at least as protective as those set forth herein. Each Party will use all reasonable efforts to maintain the confidentiality of the other Party’s Confidential Information in its possession or control, but in

***	Certain information in this agreement has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. [***] indicates that text has been omitted and is the subject of a confidential treatment request.

no event less than the efforts that it ordinarily uses with respect to its own confidential information of similar nature and importance. The foregoing obligations will not restrict either Party from disclosing Confidential Information: (a) pursuant to the order or requirement of a court, administrative agency, or other governmental body, provided that the Party required to make such a disclosure gives reasonable notice to the other Party to enable it to contest such order or requirement; (b) on a confidential basis to its legal or professional financial advisors; (c) as required under applicable securities regulations; or (d) on a confidential basis to present or future providers of venture capital and/or potential private investors in or acquirers of such Party.

12.4. Additional Requirements. Without limiting Section 12.3, Supplier agrees to:

(a) maintain any Non-Public Products in a separate, dedicated, blocked-off area of Supplier’s facilities and ensure that only Authorized Individuals have access to such area;

(b) ensure that all parts of Non-Public Products are stored, manufactured and reviewed in secure rooms, and that only Authorized Individuals have access to such rooms;

(c) ensure that all materials used in connection with this Agreement are stored in a secure and protected area to successfully prevent anyone who is not an Authorized Individual from viewing any parts, systems, or plans related to Non-Public Products;

(d) provide, upon Square’s request, a separate manufacturing space, including a physical barrier around Square’s dedicated production space to keep Products out of view from the rest of the Supplier’s factory;

(e) ensure that all Square’s or an Authorized Purchaser’s business processes disclosed to Supplier are kept in strict confidence and utilized only in fulfillment of this Agreement;

(f) ensure that no name and/or code reference to the Products is in any way visible, including on hard or soft copies of any documents associated with the Product assembly or any fulfillment of this Agreement;

(g) refer to the activities contemplated under this Agreement using internally assigned code names only, with no reference to Square, or an Authorized Purchaser, or Square’s or an Authorized Purchaser’s products or business.

13. OWNERSHIP & INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

13.1. Square Intellectual Property Rights. Square retains all right, title and interest in and to the Square Technology and Square Background Intellectual Property Rights. The Development Deliverables and Products are works made for hire to the extent permitted by applicable law. Square shall own all right, title, and interest in and to the Designs, Specifications, Square Tooling, Development Deliverables and Products and all Intellectual Property Rights therein, including without limitation all Square Owned Foreground Intellectual

Property Rights (but excluding any Supplier Owned Foreground Intellectual Property Rights and Supplier Background Intellectual Property Rights incorporated therein). If any of the Designs, Specifications, Square Owned Tooling, Development Deliverables, Products or any part thereof do not qualify as works made for hire, Supplier hereby irrevocably transfers and assigns to Square, and agrees to transfer and assign to Square in the future, all right, title and interest that Supplier may at any time have or acquire in or to the foregoing and any Intellectual Property Rights therein, including without limitation any Square Owned Foreground Intellectual Property (but excluding any Supplier Owned Foreground Intellectual Property Rights and Supplier Background Intellectual Property Rights incorporated therein). Supplier agrees to execute any documents reasonably requested by Square to enable Square to secure, register or enforce any Intellectual Property Rights in the foregoing, including without limitation any Square Owned Foreground Intellectual Property Rights.

13.2. Supplier Intellectual Property Rights. Supplier retains all right, title and interest in and to the Supplier Background Intellectual Property Rights. Supplier shall own all right, title and interest in and to the Supplier Owned Foreground Intellectual Property Rights.

13.3. Square License to Supplier. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Square hereby grants Supplier a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license, without the right to sublicense (except as expressly permitted pursuant to Section 15.1), during the term of this Agreement to use the Square Technology, Square Background Intellectual Property Rights, and Square Owned Foreground Intellectual Property Rights solely internally to perform its obligations under this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Supplier agrees that it shall not (a) develop, distribute, license, sell, or otherwise transfer the Square Owned Foreground Intellectual Property Rights to any third parties, or (b) use the Square Owned Foreground Intellectual Property Rights for the benefit of any other customer, licensee, or other third party.

13.4. Supplier License to Square. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Supplier hereby grants to Square a worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free, sublicenseable, perpetual, irrevocable license under the Supplier Background Intellectual Property Rights and Supplier Owned Foreground Intellectual Property Rights to display, perform, modify, distribute, use, practice, sell, offer to sell, import, exploit, and otherwise dispose of the Development Deliverables and Products and any improved versions, evolutions, or derivatives thereof in any manner.

13.5. Exclusive Technology. Supplier agrees that, for [***] from the Production Date, Supplier shall not (a) develop, distribute, license, sell, or otherwise transfer any Exclusive Technology to any third parties or (b) use the Exclusive Technology for the benefit of any other customer, licensee, or other third party. In the event that Square has not placed a Purchase Order for Supplier to start production of the Product within [***] of the Qualification Date, and Square’s failure to place such Purchase Order is due to market dynamics and demand uncertainty, the restrictions in this Section 13.6 will not apply unless otherwise mutually agreed. If Square has either, in Square sole discretion, (1)(A) ordered and taken delivery of at least [***] units of Product during the [***] following the Production Date and (B) agreed to order at least [***] units of Product during the year after the year following the Production Date, or (2)(A)

***	Certain information in this agreement has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. [***] indicates that text has been omitted and is the subject of a confidential treatment request.

agreed to pay Supplier an amount equal to the cost per unit of Product minus profit multiplied by [***] units (paid in quarterly installments), and (B) agreed to order at least [***] of Product during the year after year following the Production Date, the restriction in the foregoing sentence will continue for [***] year. In the event Square does not fulfill the conditions set forth in the foregoing clauses (1) or (2), the exclusivity period will not continue for [***] year.

13.6. Right of First Refusal. During the Term of this Agreement, if Supplier develops any technology or intellectual property rights outside the scope of this Agreement associated with a read head that is less than [***] and can be used in payment card products or related technology, Square will have right of first offer and refusal to enter into a mutual agreement with Supplier with respect to such technology and intellectual property rights. In accordance with this right of first offer and refusal, Supplier will notify Square of an opportunity to develop a read head that is less than [***] (on the same material terms set forth in this Agreement) and Square will have [***] to accept such opportunity. If Square does not accept the opportunity within [***] following notification, Supplier may enter into such opportunity with a third party. For clarity, if a third party requests Supplier to manufacture a read head outside the scope of this Agreement, Supplier retains the ability to pursue such an opportunity so long as the opportunity does not implicate or use Square’s intellectual property.

14. TERM AND TERMINATION

14.1. Term. This Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will continue in effect for an initial term of three (3) years, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Following such initial term, this Agreement will automatically renew for successive two (2) year renewal terms unless either Party provides the other Party with notice of non-renewal at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the expiration of the initial term or any renewal term.

14.2. Termination for Breach. Without prejudice to any other right or remedy that may be available to it, each Party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to the other Party if such other Party materially breaches any of its obligations hereunder and fails to cure such breach within a period of thirty (30) days following receipt of written notice of such breach from the terminating Party.

14.3. Termination for Convenience. Square may terminate this Agreement for convenience upon [***] prior written notice to Supplier. Notwithstanding termination under this Section, Square agrees to compensate Supplier according to the liability schedule in the applicable SOW.

14.4. Termination for Financial Reasons. Either Party terminate this Agreement in the event the other Party: (a) seeks the liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or winding up of itself or the composition or readjustment of all or substantially all of its debts; (b) applies for or consents to the appointment of, or the taking of possession by, a receiver, custodian, trustee or liquidator of itself or of all or substantially all of its assets; (c) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (d) commences or has commenced against it a case under the U.S. bankruptcy code; or (e) files a petition for relief or otherwise seeks relief from or readjustment of its debts under any other law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, winding-up or composition or readjustment of debts (including, without limitation, consenting to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary bankruptcy case against it).

***	Certain information in this agreement has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission. [***] indicates that text has been omitted and is the subject of a confidential treatment request.

14.5. Effect of Termination.

(a) Unless otherwise specified by Square in writing, upon any termination or expiration of this Agreement, Supplier will continue to process and deliver to Square (or to such other location as indicated on any applicable Purchase Order) any Products ordered pursuant to Purchase Orders transmitted by Square prior to the effective date of any such termination or expiration, except in the case of non-payment by Square where such payment is undisputed and delinquent by more than 90 days and Supplier has given Square 30 days notice of its intent to stop processing and delivering Products.

(b) Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, other than as a result of a material breach by Supplier, Square will pay Supplier in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for any Products ordered prior to such termination or expiration.

14.6. Survival. The following provisions will survive termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason: Sections 1 and 6 through 15 as well as any other provisions which should be reasonably understood by their terms as intended to survive termination or expiration.

15. GENERAL

15.1. Subcontracting. Supplier may use third party contractors that have been pre-approved by Square for particular services or materials (“Subcontractors”) that will be obligated to comply with the terms of this Agreement and Supplier will remain responsible for such Subcontractors’ performance. In the event that Supplier seeks to change a third party service or material used for the Product, Supplier must first receive Square’s written approval. Supplier’s use of any Subcontractor will not be deemed a waiver of any rights of Square hereunder nor relieve Supplier of any of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement. Supplier will enter into a written agreement with each Subcontractor that includes terms and conditions no less protective of Square’s proprietary and intellectual property rights than those set forth in this Agreement prior to Supplier permitting any such Subcontractor to perform any obligation hereunder. Supplier will be solely responsible for the payment of all amounts payable to, and the performance of all of Supplier’s obligations for, all such Subcontractors.

15.2. No Exclusivity. This Agreement is non-exclusive. Square will have the right to use and share with third parties the Specifications for building future read heads. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed or deemed to prevent or otherwise inhibit Square’s ability or right to manufacture the Products, whether at Square’s facility or at an alternate or additional third party facility(ies) of Square’s choice. Further, nothing in this Agreement will be construed or deemed to (a) require Square to order any minimum number of units of the Products to be manufactured by Supplier, or (b) prevent or otherwise inhibit Square’s ability or right to design, develop, manufacture, have manufactured, market, use, sell, or distribute any products similar to or derivative of the Products.

15.3. Assignment. Neither Party may assign or transfer this Agreement, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other Party except that no consent will be required for (a) Square’s assignment of this Agreement in whole or in part to any Affiliates of Square or (b) a Party’s assignment to a surviving corporation or acquirer in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all, or substantially all, of a Party’s assets. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section will be null and void and of no force or effect. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of each Party’s permitted successors and assigns.

15.4. Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, excluding that body of laws known as conflicts of law. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not apply to this Agreement. All legal actions or proceedings arising out of this Agreement will be brought exclusively in the federal or state courts located in the Northern District of California and the parties hereby irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue therein.

15.5. Compliance with Laws. Each Party will comply with all laws, regulations and ordinances applicable to such Party in the exercise of its rights and obligations under this Agreement.

15.6. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such provision will automatically be adjusted to the minimum extent necessary in order to comply with the requirements for validity or enforceability, and as so adjusted, will be deemed a provision of this Agreement as though originally included herein. In the event that the provision held invalid or unenforceable is of such a nature that it cannot be so adjusted, such provision will be deemed deleted from this Agreement as though such provision had never been included herein. In either case, the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

15.7. Non-Waiver. The failure by either Party to enforce any provision of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that or any other provision. The waiver of any provision of this Agreement will only be effective if in writing and signed by the Party waiving such provision.

15.8. Notices. All notices, demands, requests and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement will be in writing and will be delivered in person, by nationally recognized courier service, by facsimile or by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested) and, in all cases, will be deemed to have been duly given or made upon receipt. All such notices, demands, requests and other communications will be delivered to the Parties at the addresses set forth on the first page of this Agreement (or at such other address for a Party as will be specified by like notice).

15.9. Relationship Between the Parties. The relationship between the Parties will be that of independent contractors and nothing in this Agreement is intended to nor will establish any relationship of partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise, agency or other form of legal association between the Parties. Neither Party will have, nor represent to any third party that it does have, any power or authority to bind the other Party or incur any obligations on the other Party’s behalf.

15.10. Headings; Construction. Section headings are a matter of convenience and will not be considered part of this Agreement. This Agreement has been negotiated by the Parties, which have had reasonable access to legal counsel. This Agreement will be fairly interpreted in accordance with its terms, without any construction in favor of or against either Party as a result of having drafted any particular provision.

15.11. Remedies. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the exercise by either Party of any of its remedies under this Agreement will be without prejudice to its other remedies under this Agreement or at law or in equity.

15.12. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including its exhibits and attachments, constitutes the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between the Parties regarding its subject matter and supersedes any and all previous understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, regarding such subject matter. Any modification or amendment of any provision of this Agreement will be effective only if in writing and signed by duly authorized representatives of both Parties.

15.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this Agreement as of the Effective Date by their duly authorized representatives.
