(for sales in the United States), Xilinx Ireland Unlimited Company (for sales in Europe, the Middle East and Africa), or Xilinx Sales International Pte. Ltd. (for sales in Asia Pacific, Japan, and the Americas region other than the United States), and the term “Customer” means the applicable buyer of the Products.
1. Exclusive Terms and Conditions. Except only where otherwise agreed in writing signed by an officer of Xilinx, the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement shall exclusively govern the offer and sale by Xilinx to Customer of FPGA, PLD, SoC, ACAP, configurable memory devices, other standard semiconductor devices, and EasyPath devices that are programmed with a design verified by Xilinx to program such devices (“Devices”), cards for deployment in production compute, network, storage and communications equipment (“Deployment Cards”), system-on-modules (“SOMs”), development/evaluation boards, cards and kits (“Eval Boards”), programming, debug and trace modules and cables (“Accessories”), Engineering Samples (as defined below), wafers, die, and devices and products made pursuant to Customer’s specifications (collectively, “Products”). “Engineering Samples” means Products that are developmental or experimental in nature or are in prototype form or which are sold under a part number containing “es” as part of the part number. Products exclude any software including design tools, design files or reference designs (“Licensed Items”). Licensed Items are distributed under separate license agreement(s) which Customer must sign, execute or otherwise accept prior to obtaining Licensed Items.

Acceptance of Customer's order by Xilinx is expressly subject to Customer’s assent to this Agreement as the sole and exclusive terms and conditions governing Customer’s order without deviation. Any terms or conditions proposed by Customer, whether written or oral, that add to, vary from, or conflict with this Agreement are expressly objected to and rejected by Xilinx, and shall be null and void, even in the absence of any other objections by Xilinx and whether acknowledged by Xilinx or not. Xilinx does not intend to enter into any contract for the purchase and sale of Products other than under the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and no employee, representative or agent of Xilinx is authorized to make or accept on Xilinx’s behalf any offer for the purchase and sale of Products other than on the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

The date and time of delivery occurs when Products are tendered to the freight forwarder as indicated by Xilinx’s records, and Products shall be deemed accepted upon such tender. The foregoing shall be without prejudice to Customer’s rights under the limited warranty as set out below. In the event of capacity constraints, Customer is deemed to have consented to Xilinx allocating shipments among customers at its sole discretion and Xilinx shall not be responsible for any losses caused as a result of unavailable, late or partial shipments due to allocation. Delivery dates indicated in Xilinx’s written acknowledgements to Customer’s orders are estimates, and delivery may occur in installments.

7. LIMITED WARRANTY. Subject to the limitations and exclusions in this Agreement, Xilinx warrants that Products as delivered will, for the period of time described in the table below for each Product type (commencing on the date title for such Products transfers to Customer hereunder) (the “Warranty Period”), be free from defects in materials and workmanship and will substantially conform to Xilinx’s publicly available Product datasheets and known issues and errata in effect on such date (“Specifications”). This limited warranty does not apply to and excludes to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law: (i) Engineering Samples, wafers and die; (ii) Xilinx products procured from unauthorized sources; (iii) Products that have been subject to misuse, mishandling, accident, alteration, neglect, or unauthorized repair or installation; (iv) Products used in an application or environment that is not within the Specifications; (v) EasyPath devices that are programmed with a design that differs from the design verified by Xilinx to program such devices; and (vi) Products returned to Xilinx in a condition not suitable for failure analysis, including but not limited to Products that have been programmed with eFuse, encryption or other technology that prevents Xilinx from communicating with or testing the Products using Xilinx’s standard testing procedures and methodologies (the items described in sub-paragraphs (i) to (vi) inclusive being, collectively, “Excluded Items”). Customer waives any right to assert a warranty claim unless such claim was made with written notice to Xilinx prior to expiration of the warranty period and setting out in as much detail as possible the nature of the claim. For any breach by Xilinx of this limited warranty, the exclusive remedy of Customer and the sole liability of Xilinx shall be, at the option of Xilinx, to replace or repair the affected Products, or if neither is feasible in Xilinx’s sole opinion, to refund to Customer the price paid to Xilinx for the affected Products. Customer cannot return Products without first obtaining a Return Material Authorization (RMA) from Xilinx. The availability of and warranty period for replacement Products is subject to PDNs from time to time. THE WARRANTIES SET FORTH HEREIN ARE EXCLUSIVE AND NON-TRANSFERABLE. XILINX DISCLAIMS TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTY THAT MAY ARISE FROM COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, OR USAGE OF TRADE OR OTHERWISE HOWSOEVER ARISING.

9. INDEMNIFICATION. Subject to the limitations and exclusions in this Agreement, Xilinx agrees to defend against claims, suits, or proceedings before a court of competent jurisdiction instituted against Customer to the extent based on a claim that Products as delivered to Customer by Xilinx directly infringes any U.S. patent or copyright or upon any claim that Xilinx has misappropriated or unlawfully disclosed trade secrets of a third party in connection with the design or production of Products (collectively, “Claims”), and to pay money damages awarded in a final judgment against Customer or agreed upon by Xilinx in settlement of such Claim, provided that Customer (i) gives Xilinx prompt notice in writing of the Claim; (ii) permits Xilinx to have sole control over the defense or settlement of the same; (iii) gives Xilinx all necessary information, assistance and additional authority required; and (iv) makes no admission of liability without the permission of Xilinx. If, as a result of a Claim, Customer is enjoined from using Products purchased from Xilinx, Xilinx may, at its sole discretion and option, (a) secure for Customer the right to use Products, (b) modify the Products to be non-infringing, or provide Customer with replacement Products that are non-infringing, or (c) if Xilinx cannot secure such rights or modify or provide such replacement Products on commercially reasonable terms, refund to Customer the price paid for affected Products and prospectively cease to defend Customer or pay damages hereunder with regard to such Products without being in breach of this Agreement. THE FOREGOING STATES THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF XILINX AND THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY OF CUSTOMER WITH RESPECT TO CLAIMS RELATING TO THE PRODUCTS. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED HEREIN, ALL WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS AND/OR CONDITIONS AGAINST INFRINGEMENT OF ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, STATUTORY, EXPRESS, OR IMPLIED, ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED.

9.2 Customer agrees, at its own expense, to defend against Claims instituted against Xilinx related or arising from Excluded Claims, and for any Claims related to or arising from an allegation that Customer’s programming and use (by or on behalf of Customer or its end customer) of Products infringes upon any patent or copyright or upon any claim that Customer has misappropriated or unlawfully disclosed trade secrets of a third party in connection with a Claim (collectively, “Relevant Claims”), and to pay money damages awarded in a final judgment against Xilinx for such infringement or misuse, provided that Xilinx (i) gives Customer prompt notice in writing of the Relevant Claim; (ii) permits Customer to have sole control over the defense or settlement of the same; (iii) gives Customer all necessary information, assistance and authority required; and (iv) makes no admission of liability without the permission of Customer.

11. FORCE MAJEURE. Xilinx shall not be liable for any loss, damage or penalty resulting from a failure to fulfill or delay in fulfilling an obligation when such failure or delay results directly or indirectly from causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, war, civil or labor unrest, fire, explosion, terrorism or threats thereof, natural disaster, pandemics, epidemics or plagues, materials shortages, or supply disruptions or delays. Nothing in this section relieves Customer of the obligation to pay Xilinx for Products after they have been tendered to Customer’s freight forwarder.

Online Store Exceptions to the Terms of Sale. All products sold under this Online Store site are subject to the Xilinx Terms of Sale (for hardware) and End User License Agreement (for software), with the following exceptions: (i) Payment and Taxes: All Online Store purchases shall be made solely by means of credit card, to be authorized at the time of order submission and charged on the applicable ship date (for hardware) or on the date of electronic fulfillment (for software). (ii) Delivery, Transfer of Title, and Risk of Loss: All Online Store purchases shall be subject to separate shipping charges. Transfer of title and risk of loss shall occur on the date when the applicable products are shipped from Xilinx’s warehouse’s dock. Xilinx ships online store products from Singapore. The Customer (or recipient, if different) is the importer of record and therefore must comply with all applicable import laws and regulations of the destination country. Orders shipped outside of Singapore may be subject to import taxes, customs duties and fees, which are levied once a shipment reaches the recipient's country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by the recipient; Xilinx has no control over these charges and can't predict what they may be. Customs policies can vary widely from country to country. You should contact your local customs office for more information. When customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond Xilinx's original delivery estimates. (iii) No Cancellation/No Return: All Online Store purchases shall be non-cancellable and non-returnable (NCNR), subject only to the 90-day limited warranty for boards and cables.
