`Guidelines for completing this agreement:
`1. Fill out the contact information above and select the specifications you wish to adopt on the signature page.
`2. Non-members should sign one box on the signature page to accept or decline the reciprocal patent license
`under the terms of the Khronos Group Adopter Intellectual Property (“IP”) Rights Policy. Declining means that no
`patent licenses will be granted under this agreement, and so your implementations will not benefit from the
`patent protections otherwise granted to conformant products. The reciprocal license terms that apply to Adopters
`who are also Khronos members are determined in accordance with the terms of their Khronos Membership
`Agreements, including with respect to Working Group Exclusion Certificates and IP Disclosure Certificates.
`3. If you have previously adopted specifications but wish to adopt additional specifications, submit a fully executed
`agreement with any additional specifications selected, together with the appropriate fees. Your previous
`adoptions will not be affected.
`4. You may apply to become an Adopter solely to act as a subcontractor to another Adopter without any rights to
`make Submissions on your own behalf, with Adopter Fees waived. The application requires that both you and the
`Contracting Adopter execute the Subcontractor Warranty in Attachment B and is subject to Khronos Board
`approval.
`5. Have an authorized person sign the signature page of this agreement. If your company requires more than one
`authorized signatory, duplicate the signature page for each required signature for both copies of the agreement.
`6. Mail a copy OR email a PDF of the executed agreement to the contact address below. If mailed, send two signed
`copies and one completed copy will be returned for your records.

`that is conformant under an earlier version of the Process Document.
`5.3. Notices for Process Updates
`Khronos will distribute notices of any updates to the Process Document to an electronic mailing list to which the
`Adopter shall be added. It is, however, incumbent on the Adopter to provide Khronos with the Adopter’s correct

`Disclosure Certificates.

`paid in settlement of any claim, of any kind or nature whatsoever, which may be sustained or suffered as a result

`the rights of any third party.
`7.6. Ownership Rights
`Adopter receives no ownership interest in or title to any Khronos, Khronos Licensor or other Mark Owners
`intellectual property in the Adopters Package including APIs, libraries, documentation, specifications, or derivatives

`Adopters Package. Adopter shall provide Khronos with all Adopter’s modifications to the Test Source, and Adopter
`transfers, assigns, and hereby does assign to Khronos all rights, title, and interest to any such modifications to the
`Test Source. For avoidance of doubt, the previous sentence is not intended to include any other Adopter software
`and/or libraries that may be combined with or linked to the Test Source. Khronos (and its licensors, if any) reserve
`all rights not expressly granted.
`7.7. No Other Rights
`Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no license or rights in the Adopters Package, APIs, libraries,

`only be used in reference to those programs or drivers that are conformant. An Adopter may only use Marks
`associated with optional functionality profiles described in the Process Document on Products that are conformant
`with those profiles. Khronos warrants that it has all necessary rights to grant to Adopter this license to use the
`Marks.

`
`8.2. Trademark Indemnification
`Adopter agrees to indemnify and hold Mark Owners, and each of its respective officers, directors, affiliates,
`employees and agents, harmless from and against any damages, liabilities, losses and expenses, including, without
`limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and amounts paid in settlement of any claim, of any kind or nature
`whatsoever, which may be sustained or suffered as a result of any use by Adopter of the Mark in violation of the
`terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any act or omission, which causes or is
`alleged to cause harm or a violation of any of the rights of any third party.
`8.3. Adopter Covenants
`(i) Adopter acknowledges that Mark Owner is the owner of all of its right, title and interest in and to the Marks that
`and that the Mark Owner is the owner of its goodwill attached or which shall become attached to the Marks. All
`uses of the Marks, for trademark ownership purposes, shall inure to the benefit of Mark Owner. Adopter shall not
`do any act or thing to knowingly adversely affect any rights of Mark Owner in and to the Marks or any registrations
`thereof or which, directly or indirectly, will reduce the value of the Marks or detract from its reputation. In the
`event Adopter’s employees participating in Khronos activities become aware of what they believe to be
`unauthorized use of the Marks by a third person, Adopter shall use reasonable efforts to notify Khronos of such
`use.
`(ii) Adopter acknowledges that the Marks may have acquired a valuable secondary meaning and goodwill with the
`public, and that Products bearing or associated with the Marks have acquired a reputation of highest quality.
`Accordingly, notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Adopter undertakes and agrees not
`to knowingly use the Marks in any manner which, directly or indirectly, would derogate or detract from its
`reputation.
`(iii) Adopter acknowledges and agrees that any threat or challenge to the quality or reputation of the Marks or
`goods or services sold under the Marks, or any misuse of the Marks under the terms of this Agreement, presents a
`potential for irreparable harm, and that a potential of irreparable harm could exist in such circumstances sufficient
`to warrant a grant of injunctive relief.
`8.4. Quality Control
`Mark Owner retains the right to disapprove of any use by Adopter of the Marks in the event that Adopter does not
`pass the requisite conformance testing or uses the Marks out of compliance with applicable guidelines as defined
`in section 8.6; provided, however, Mark Owner shall not unreasonably disapprove of any such use. Adopter agrees
`to change or discontinue (at Mark Owner’s option) use of the Mark immediately upon Mark Owner’s request.
`8.5. Non-assertion of Rights in Marks
`Adopter shall not represent that it has ownership in the Marks and acknowledges that use of the Marks shall not
`create any right, title or interest in the Marks beyond the license rights granted herein; and Adopter shall never
`challenge Mark Owners ownership of or the validity of the Marks or any application by Mark Owner for
`registration thereof or any rights of Mark Owner therein. Adopter agrees not to assert against Khronos or any
`Member any trademark, trade name, or similar rights (a) that Adopter has now in the names Khronos, Khronos
`Group or the Marks, or (b) that Adopter may obtain in the names Khronos, Khronos Group or the Marks, provided
`that Khronos applies for such marks in good faith and not to the detriment of Adopter. Adopter will not use or
`adopt any trademarks for any product, service, or specification likely to cause confusion with the Marks. For
`avoidance of doubt, the previous sentence shall not apply to any marks contributed by the Adopter to, and
`intended to be licensed through, Khronos.
`8.6. Use of Trademarks
`Adopter and its Affiliates shall use the Marks strictly in compliance with applicable legal requirements and in
`accordance with then-current and applicable standard trademark use guidelines issued by Mark Owners and
`Khronos, and currently located at http://www.khronos.org/trademark_guidelines, as necessary to preserve and
`protect the validity, value, and enforceability of the Mark.

`employees that need to know such Confidential Information for the purposes of carrying out their respective

`secret or other legend from any form of Confidential Information.
`9.4. Return of Confidential Information
`Upon Termination, Adopter will destroy or return to Khronos all tangible and intangible copies of Confidential
`Information that are in its possession. The forgoing provisions shall not require Licensee to purge its back up or
`archival tapes created automatically as part of its corporate IT policy provided that Licensee does not access or
`reinstall any versions of the Confidential Information from the back up or archival tapes.
`9.5. Residuals
`Adopter and its Affiliates are free to use for any purpose the Residuals resulting from access to or work with the
`Adopter’s Package provided that it maintains the confidentiality of the Adopter’s Package as provided herein.
`Adopter and its Affiliates have no obligation to limit or restrict the assignment of persons with access to Adopter’s
`Package or to pay royalties for any work resulting from the use of the Residuals. However, the foregoing does not
`grant a license to any patents or copyrights held by Khronos or Khronos Members.
`
`10. Term and Termination
`10.1. Term
`The term of this Agreement will begin on the Effective Date and will continue indefinitely unless terminated
`pursuant to this Section.
`10.2. Adopter Termination
`Adopter may terminate this Agreement at any time by providing written notice to Khronos.
`10.3. Termination of Portions of the Agreement by Khronos
`Adopter recognizes that certain rights granted hereunder are third party rights being passed through, sub-licensed
`or otherwise granted by Khronos. Accordingly, it is specifically provided that Khronos may terminate any portion of
`this Agreement at any time as to any portion of the Adopters Package, upon the termination of Khronos’ right with
`respect to that portion, or if Khronos has reasonable grounds, without any admission of liability to believe that any
`of the technology licensed hereunder infringes the rights of any third party.
`10.4. Termination through Insolvency
`This Agreement shall terminate immediately if Adopter: (i) becomes insolvent; (ii) has a receiver is appointed for it
`or its property; or (iii) commences voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceedings (in the event of an involuntary
`filing, provided such proceeding has not been vacated or set aside within sixty (60) days of commencement).

`
`10.5. Termination through Breach

`10.6. Rights after Termination

`shall warrant to Khronos in writing by an officer of Adopter as to such destruction. Adopter’s failure to comply with
`the obligations of this Section shall constitute unauthorized use of the Adopters Package, entitling Khronos to
`equitable or other relief.
`10.7. Remaining License Terms
`Any Reciprocal Patent Licenses that were granted by and to Adopter prior to termination will remain in full force
`and effect. Unless the Agreement was terminated by Khronos due to Adopter’s breach, the license to use the
