style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On March 15, 2010, we entered into a collaborative development program (&#8220;CDP&#8221;) agreement with SanDisk Corporation (&#8220;SanDisk&#8221;) and Toshiba Corporation (&#8220;Toshiba&#8221;) to develop certain memory technologies and related materials (as amended to date, the &#8220;Agreement&#8221;).  We solely own the rights to the technology and IP arising out of the CDP that is solely developed by us and that is based on our background technology. Jointly developed technology and IP arising out of the CDP that is based on our background technology are jointly owned. Patent rights based on technology solely developed by us that is based on Toshiba or SanDisk background technology will be jointly owned (such solely owned IP, jointly developed IP and patent rights collectively referred to as &#8220;IMI IP&#8221;).  Toshiba and SanDisk have agreed to pay us volume-based royalties on sales of products that incorporate or use IMI IP or other technology developed under the CDP subject to certain minimum and maximum levels. Toshiba or SanDisk may request that we grant to other third parties a royalty-bearing license to our solely owned rights in IMI IP.  We granted Toshiba and SanDisk an exclusive license under our rights in the IMI IP during the term of the CDP.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:left;text-indent:32px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The term of the CDP concluded on March 15, 2014.

As a result, each of SanDisk and Toshiba shall pay us non-refundable prepaid royalties that will apply to volume-based royalties for products manufactured and offered for sale by or for Toshiba or SanDisk that incorporate or use the technology developed under the CDP.

ITEM  8.01.
OTHER EVENTS
Collaborative Development Program Agreement with Toshiba and SanDisk
On March 15, 2010, we entered into a collaborative development program ("CDP") agreement with SanDisk Corporation ("SanDisk") and Toshiba Corporation ("Toshiba") to develop certain memory technologies and related materials (as amended to date, the "Agreement").  We solely own the rights to the technology and IP arising out of the CDP that is solely developed by us and that is based on our background technology. Jointly developed technology and IP arising out of the CDP that is based on our background technology are jointly owned. Patent rights based on technology solely developed by us that is based on Toshiba or SanDisk background technology will be jointly owned (such solely owned IP, jointly developed IP and patent rights collectively referred to as "IMI IP").  Toshiba and SanDisk have agreed to pay us volume-based royalties on sales of products that incorporate or use IMI IP or other technology developed under the CDP subject to certain minimum and maximum levels. Toshiba or SanDisk may request that we grant to other third parties a royalty-bearing license to our solely owned rights in IMI IP.  We granted Toshiba and SanDisk an exclusive license under our rights in the IMI IP during the term of the CDP.
The term of the CDP concluded on March 15, 2014.  After the conclusion of the CDP term, Toshiba and SanDisk each had the option (i) to elect to take an exclusive license in a limited field to certain or all of the IMI IP, (ii) to convert the exclusive license to non-exclusive, or (iii) to terminate the exclusive license.
On May 9, 2014, SanDisk and Toshiba notified us that they have jointly elected to take an exclusive license, in the limited field, to all of the IMI IP developed under the CDP.  As a result, each of SanDisk and Toshiba shall pay us non-refundable prepaid royalties that will apply to volume-based royalties for products manufactured and offered for sale by or for Toshiba or SanDisk that incorporate or use the technology developed under the CDP.  Such fees shall be paid in equal installment payments over a period of time.
The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement filed as an exhibit to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
