`
`A true and correct copy of the PLA, redacted to protect the disclosure of confidential
`
`business information, is attached to this submission as Public Exhibit A, and a confidential
`
`unredacted version of the PLA is attached as Confidential Exhibit A-1.
`
`A true and correct copy of the Release, redacted to protect the disclosure of confidential
`
`business information, is attached as Public Exhibit B, and a confidential unredacted version of
`
`the Release is attached as Confidential Exhibit B-1.
`
`A true and correct copy of the Third Party PLA, redacted to protect the disclosure of
`
`confidential business information, is attached as Public Exhibit C, and a highly confidential
`
`unredacted version of the Third Party PLA is attached as Highly Confidential Exhibit C-1.
`
`Contemporaneously with a similar motion to terminate filed earlier this week with respect to the
`
`Fujitsu Ten Respondents, Advanced Silicon also filed a motion pursuant to Commission Rule
`
`210.21(a)(1), requesting that the ALJ limit service of the highly confidential unredacted Third
`
`Party PLA to the Parties and Staff. See Motion Dkt. 984-070. For the same reasons set forth in
`
`that Motion to Limit Service, Advanced Silicon respectfully requests here that the ALJ limit
`
`service of the same agreement in the same way.
`
`A true and correct copy of the Escrow Agreement, redacted to protect the disclosure of
`
`confidential business information, is attached as Public Exhibit D, and a confidential version of
`
`the Escrow Agreement in which only financial terms are redacted is attached as Confidential
`
`Exhibit D-1.1 Contemporaneously with this motion, Renesas is also filing a motion pursuant to
`
`Commission Rule 210.21(a)(1), requesting that the ALJ limit service of a highly confidential,
`
`minimally redacted Escrow Agreement to the ALJ and Staff. The
`
`1 By the express terms of the contract, Advanced Silicon has no right to receive a fully unredacted version of the
`Escrow Agreement. See Ex. D-1 at Section 4.11. Moreover,
`, the
`Escrow Agreement has terminated and is no longer in effect.

`

`
`Escrow Agreement in
`
` is attached as
`
`Highly Confidential Exhibit D-2 to Renesas’ Motion to Limit Service.2
`
`The Bilateral Agreements have each been executed by the Parties, and are each fully
`
`effective as between them. All of the Agreements contain Confidential Business Information
`
`within the meaning of 19 C.F.R. § 201.6(a), including, but not limited to, sensitive license terms,
`
`the disclosure of which could impair parties’ ability to enter into agreements. The Bilateral
`
`Agreements completely resolve the dispute between the Parties in this Investigation. Taken
`
`together, the Agreements reflect the entire and only agreements between the Parties, and any
`
`agreements relating to the resolution of the dispute between the Parties, regarding the subject
`
`matter of this Investigation. The Parties represent that there are no other agreements, written or
`
`oral, express or implied, between the Parties concerning the subject matter of this Investigation.
`
`The Parties agree that termination of this Investigation on the basis of an agreement
`
`between the Parties as to only the Renesas Respondents does not constitute a determination as to
`
`the violation of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, including as to the merits of the claims or
`
`defenses raised during this Investigation. See 19 C.F.R. § 210.21(b)(2).
`
`In view of the Agreements, there no longer exists a basis upon which to continue this
`
`Investigation as to the Renesas Respondents. Further, termination of this Investigation as to the
`
`Renesas Respondents at this stage of the proceedings poses no threat to the public interest.
`
`Indeed, it is in the interest of the public and administrative economy to grant this motion.
`
`Commission policy and the public interest generally favor agreements, which preserve resources

`
`Moreover, termination of this Investigation as to the Renesas Respondents pursuant to the
