DIGIMARC CORPORATION

STRATEGIC INVESTMENT AGREEMENT

THIS STRATEGIC INVESTMENT AGREEMENT (this “AGREEMENT”) is made as of September 17, 2000 by and between KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS ELECTRONICS N.V., a Netherlands corporation (the “INVESTOR”), and DIGIMARC CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “COMPANY”), (each a “PARTY”, collectively, the “PARTIES”). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined are defined in EXHIBIT A, attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

A.     The Investor and the Company believe that a more extensive business relationship between them would be mutually advantageous.

B.      As part of such current and potential business relationship, the Parties desire that the Investor become an equity investor in the Company by purchasing shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “COMMON STOCK”, and such shares, the “SHARES”) in a number equal to the Philips Percentage (defined below), at a purchase price of $20.00 per share. The “PHILIPS PERCENTAGE” of the Common Stock shall be an amount equal to twelve percent (12%) of the issued and outstanding Common Stock at the Closing, including the shares issued to the Investor hereunder and the shares issued or to be issued pursuant to the proposed Strategic Investment Agreement between the Company and Macrovision Corporation (the “MACROVISION INVESTMENT AGREEMENT”), but excluding shares subject to warrants, options or other contracts for the sale of the Common Stock existing on the date of this Agreement. If the Company issues any warrants, options or other contracts for the purchase of Common Stock after the date of this Agreement but prior to the Closing (other than pursuant to the Company’s existing employee stock purchase plans), then the Investor may purchase (at its option) a number of shares of Common Stock such that the Philips Percentage may be calculated including the Common Stock available for issuance under such warrants, options and other contracts.

C.      As another part of such future business relationship, the Parties contemplate negotiating arrangements for jointly creating a third corporation (“NEWCO”) as a vehicle for developing and marketing the Company’s watermarking technology for the audio-video market, as enhanced by audio-video technology licensed from the Investor.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and made pursuant hereto, and good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:

1

ARTICLE I.

Purchase and Sale of Shares

1.1           PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE SHARES.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company will issue and sell to the Investor, and the Investor will purchase from the Company, at the Closing (defined in Section 1.2), a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Philips Percentage, at a purchase price per share (the “SHARE PRICE”) equal to $20.00 per share. The “TOTAL PURCHASE PRICE” shall be the Share Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock purchased by the Investor, such number of shares not to exceed the Philips Percentage.

1.2           THE CLOSING.

The purchase and sale of the Shares shall take place at the offices of Morrison & Foerster LLP, 425 Market Street, San Francisco, California, on October 19, 2000, or at such other time and place as the Company and the Investor mutually agree upon orally or in writing (the “CLOSING”). At the Closing, the Company shall deliver to the Investor a stock certificate representing the Shares purchased by the Investor, and the Investor shall pay the Total Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the manner requested by the Company, all in accordance with Section 1.1.

1.3           NEWCO COLLABORATION.

The Investor and the Company each agree to negotiate in good faith toward the accomplishment of the following described collaboration through Newco which, although initially contemplated to be jointly owned by the Parties, is contemplated to evolve into a separate, publicly owned corporation. Such good faith negotiation shall be consistent with the customs and practices of sophisticated tech nology companies when they each have an expertise in a particular technology that can be combined synergistically in a collaboration to create a multidisciplinary product based upon applications of both technologies. The collaboration herein contemplated is for the creation and marketing of an audio/video product based upon the Company’s watermark technology and relevant Investor audio/video technology. Nothing herein shall be deemed to contemplate any particular transfers of intellectual property rights by either Party; provided that the Parties contemplate that Newco itself will develop its own intellectual property, including by creating derivative works and copyrights for watermarking software for this audio/video market. Nothing herein contemplates any particular level of financial support for Newco by the Parties, which is a function of complex economic analyses that will be done by each Party as it hereafter evaluates the technology, the market potential, potential competition and other matters. [***] the Company’s obligations under the preceding proviso shall earlier terminate upon the occurrence of any of the following: (i) the Parties shall have failed to use reasonable Best Efforts to file their joint application pursuant to the Hart-Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR ACT”)

2

within five (5) business days after the date hereof, (ii) the Closing shall have failed to occur on the earlier of (A) five (5) business days after the expiration of the waiting period under the HSR Act (which date under this subclause (ii)(A) shall not be deemed to have occurred until at least 30 days from the date hereof) and (B) 90 days from the date hereof, or (iii) either Party receives notification from the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) that the Parties’ HSR Act application will not be approved. [***]

1.4           CONSULTING AGREEMENT.

The Parties shall execute a Consulting Agreement, in substantially the form of EXHIBIT B hereto (the “CONSULTING AGREEMENT”), contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, pursuant to which the Company shall provide consulting services to the Investor and the Investor shall pay consulting fees to the Company, all as set forth more specifically therein.

(iv)    if the Company shall furnish to the Investor a certificate signed by the President or Chief Executive Officer of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be seriously detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such Form S-3 Registration to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer the filing of the Form S-3 registration statement for a single period of not more than ninety (90) days after receipt of the request of the Investor under this Section 4.2 and provided that such right to delay a request shall be exercised by the Company no more than twice in any one-year period; or

4.3           PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION.

(a)     PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION.

After nine months from the date of the Closing, if the Company proposes to effect a registration statement under the Securities Act for purposes of a public offering of securities of the Company (including, but not limited to, registration statements relating to secondary offerings of securities of the Company, but excluding registration statements relating to acquisitions by the Company, employee benefit plans and corporate reorganizations) for itself and/or its stockholders, the Company shall notify the Investor in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to filing such registration statement. Thereafter, the Company shall use its Best Efforts to include in such registration statement all or part of such Registrable Securities held by the Investor pursuant to this Section 4.3, provided however, nothing in this Article IV shall obligate the Company to effect such a registration statement. If the Investor desires to include all or any part of its Registrable Securities in any such registration statement, it shall, within fifteen (15) days after delivery of the above-described notice from the Company, notify the Company in writing of the Investor’s intention; the Investor’s notice shall state the intended method of disposition of the Registrable Securities by the Investor. If the Investor decides not to include al l of its Registrable Securities in any registration statement thereafter filed by the Company, the Investor shall nevertheless continue to have the right to include any Registrable Securities in any subsequent registration statement or registration statements as may be filed by the Company with respect to offerings of its securities, all upon the terms and conditions set forth herein.

(b)     UNDERWRITTEN OFFERINGS, CUTBACK.

If the registration statement under which the Company gives notice under this Section 4.3 is for an underwritten offering, the Company shall so advise the Investor. In such event, or if the registration statement under which the Investor proposes to sell the Registrable Securities under Section 4.2 above, the right of the Investor to be included in a registration pursuant to either Sections 4.2 or 4.3 shall be conditioned upon the Investor’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Investor’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. If the Investor proposes to distribute its Registrable Securities through such underwriting, it shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the underwriter determines in good faith that marke ting factors require a limitation of

17

the number of Registrable Securities to be underwritten in a registration effected under this Section 4.3, the number of Registrable Securities that may be included in the underwriting shall be reduced among the Investor and all other holders of securities who are relying on piggyback rights to include shares in such registration (together, the “PIGGYBACK INVESTORS”) on a pro rata basis based on the total number of Registrable Securities sought to be included in the registration by the Piggyback Investors, provided no such reduction shall reduce to less than 25% of any offering the number of shares of the Piggyback Investors requested to be registered. The foregoing limitations in the previous sentence shall not apply t o registrations effected pursuant to Section 4.2. In no event will shares of any other shareholder who does not have piggyback rights or other written contractual rights to require that the Company register its securities be included in such registration, which would reduce the number of shares of Common Stock which may be included by the Piggyback Investors, without the written consent of holders of not less than a majority of the securities proposed to be sold in the offering by the Piggyback Investors.

(c)     COMPANY’S RIGHT TO TERMINATE.

The Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 4.3 prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not the Investor has elected to include securities in such registration. The Registration Expenses of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 4.4(c) hereof.

(v)     furnish, at the request of the Investor, on the date that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters, or, if such securities are not being sold through underwriters, on the date that the registration statement with respect to such securities becomes effective, (A) an opinion, dated as of such date, of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such registration, in form and substance as is customarily given to underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to the Investor, addressed to the underwriters, if any, and to the Investor, and (B) a letter dated as of such date, from the independent certified public accountants of the Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independ ent certified public accountants to underwriters in an underwritten public offering and reasonably satisfactory to the

In connection with a registration effected under Section 4.3, the Company shall at all times retain the right, in its sole discretion, to select any underwriters necessary for making an offering in conjunction with such registration.

(c)     EXPENSES OF REGISTRATION.

All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance pursuant to Sections 4.2 and 4.3 shall be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses incurred in connection with any registrations hereunder, shall be borne by the Investor.

In the event any Registrable Securities held by Investor are included in a registration statement:

(i)            COMPANY INDEMNIFICATION. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless the Investor, the partners, officers and directors of the Investor, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for the Investor and each Person, if any, who controls the Investor or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or seve ral) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the following statements, omissions or violations (collectively, a “VIOLATION”) by the Company: (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto, (B) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (C) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, any state securities law or any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any state securities law in connection with the offering covered by such registra tion statement; and the Company will reimburse the Investor, partner, officer or director, underwriter or controlling Person for any legal or other expenses as reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.7(a)(i) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such

21

registration by the Investor, partner, officer, director, underwriter or controlling Person of the Investor.

(ii)           INVESTOR INDEMNIFICATION. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Investor will indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers, each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, any underwriter and any other holder selling securities under such registration statement or any of such other holder’s partners, directors or officers or any Person who controls such holder against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (joint or several) to which the Company or any such director, officer, controlling Person, underwriter or other such holder, or partner, director, officer or controlling Person of such other holder may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or other federal or state law, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by the Investor under an instrument duly executed by the Investor and stated to be specifically for use in connection with such registration, and, with respect to other holders selling securities, only to the extent that such other holders selling securities provide similar indemnification to the Investor; and the Investor will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such director, officer, controlling Per son, underwriter or other holder, or partner, officer, director or controlling Person of such other holder in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.7(a)(ii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Investor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided further, that in no event shall any indemnity under this Section 4.7 exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by the Investor.

(b)           PROCEDURE ON INDEMNIFICATION CLAIMS.

Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 4.7 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 4.7, deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually satisfactory to the indemnifying and indemnified parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the inde mnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of any such action, if

22

materially prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 4.7, but the omission to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 4.7.

(c)           ALTERNATE REMEDIES.

If t he indemnification provided for in this Section 4.7 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the Violation(s) that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fac t relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(d)           INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS SURVIVE.

The obligations of the Company and the Investor under this Section 4.7 shall survive the completion of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration statement, and otherwise.

(e)           LIMITS ON SETTLEMENT OBLIGATION.

The Investor shall not be obligated to consent to any settlement of any claim entered into by the Company in satisfaction of its indemnifica tion obligations hereunder unless the settlement includes a full and complete release of the Investor.

4.8           ASSIGNMENT OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Article IV may be assigned by the Investor to a transferee or assignee of all [***] of the Registrable Securities, and by any such transferee or assignee to successive transferees or assignees. The Investor and all such transferees or assignees shall retain all of their rights under this Article IV with respect to any Registrable Securities retained by such Person.

23

4.9           LIMITATION ON SUBSEQUENT REGISTRATION RIGHTS.

Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit or prevent the Company from granting additional parties registration rights on parity with those granted the Investor hereunder.

4.10         MARKET STAND-OFF AGREEMENT.

If requested by the Company or a representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company acting reasonably, the Investor shall not sell or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company held by the Investor (other than those included in the registration) for a period specified by the representative of the underwriters, not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days following the effective date of a registration statement of the Company filed under the Securities Act, and shall enter into an agreement with any of the underwriters stating the sa me upon such underwriter’s request. The foregoing commitment has two limitations: (a) the Investor shall not be required to refrain from selling under this paragraph, unless all officers of the Company enter into similar agreements; and (b) the Investor shall not be required to refrain from selling under this paragraph unless all other holders of the Company’s Common Stock owning an equal or a larger percentage of the Company’s Common Stock (on an as-converted basis) as the Investor is also required by a representative of the underwriter to enter into market stand-off agreements on the same terms. The obligations described in this Section 4.10 shall not apply to a registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-1 or Form S-8 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145 transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respec t to the shares of Common Stock (or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of said one hundred eighty (180) day period.

(a)           DO THINGS THAT MAKE RULE 144 AVAILABLE.

24

(b)           FILE SECURITIES ACT AND EXCHANGE ACT REPORTS TIMELY.

File with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;

(c)           DATA TO THE INVESTOR.

So long as the Investor owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to the Investor forthwith upon written request: a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 of the Securities Act, and of the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements); a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company; and such other reports and documents as the Investor may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell any such securities without registration.

7.4           DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURES.

(a)           Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this contract, or the breach thereof between or among the Parties and/or any of their Affiliates under this Agreement, shall be settled, if possible, through good faith negotiations between the relevant parties. Prior to resolving any dispute by means of arbitration or by means of any suit, action or legal proceeding permitted under this Section 7.4, the relevant parties involved in such dispute shall refer such dispute to their respective Chief Executive Officers or equivalent, who shall meet in person to negoti ate in good faith the possible resolution thereof on at least two occasions within thirty (30) days before any such party commences arbitration or other litigation permitted under this Agreement (provided, that if any such party fails or refuses to have a representative attend such meetings within such thirty (30) day period, the procedures of this Section 7.4 shall be applicable after the conclusion of such thirty (30) day period); and further provided that (i) any legal proceedings seeking interim equitable relief (including a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction) until such time as such interim equitable relief can be addressed through arbitration; (ii) proceedings for provisional relief contemplated by Section 7.4(k) below; and (iii) third party legal proceedings, in each case, may be commenced immediately.

(b)           In the event such good faith negotiations are unsuccessful, either Party may, after thirty (30) days’ written notice to the other, submit any controversy or claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, or the breach thereof, to arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its then existing Commercial Arbitration rules and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

(c)           It is the express agreement of the Parties that the provisions of this Se ction, including the rules of the AAA and the laws of the State of California referenced herein, as modified by the terms of this Section, shall govern the arbitration of any disputes arising pursuant to this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the law of the State of California, the law of the arbitral location, and the U.S. Arbitration Act (Title 9, U.S. Code), with respect to any arbitration conducted pursuant to this Agreement, to the extent permissible, it is the express intent of the Parties that the selected governing law, as modified by this Section, shall prevail. To the extent this Section is deemed a separate agreement, independent from this Agreement, Sections 7.2, 7.6, 7.7 and 7.8 are incorporated herein by reference and all notices under this

31

Section may be given in person or otherwise in such manner as is permissible under the Hague Convention.

(d)           The place of arbitration shall be at a mutually agreeable location within a 10-mile radius of Sunnyvale, California, U.S.A., and the award shall be deemed a U.S. award for purposes of the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards of 1958 (the “NEW YORK CONVENTION”).

(e)           In any arbitration pursuant to this Section, the award shall be rendered by a majority of the members of a board of arbitration consisting of three members who must possess at least ten (10) years of experience in serving clients in transactions similar to the transaction contemplated pursuant to this Agreement. The arbitrators shall be appointed by the Parties jointly or, if the Parties cannot agree as to three arbitrators within thirty (30) days after the commencement of the arbitration proceeding, then one arbitrator shall be appointed by each of the Company and the Investor within sixty (60) days after the commencement of the arbitration proceeding and the third arbitrator shall be appointed by mutual agreement of such two arbitrators. If such two arbitrators shall fail to agree within seventy-five (75) days after commencement of the arbitration proceeding upon the appoin tment of the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with its then existing rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Party shall fail to appoint an arbitrator within the specified time period, such arbitrator and the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with its then existing rules. For purposes of this Section, the “commencement of the arbitration proceeding” shall be deemed to be the date upon which written demand for arbitration has been received by the AAA from one of the Parties (and by the other Party from such Party).

(f)            So long as such award complies with subsection (j) below, an award rendered in connection with an a rbitration pursuant to this Section shall be final and binding upon the Parties, and any judgment upon such an award may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(g)           The Parties agree that the award of the arbitral tribunal will be the sole and exclusive remedy between them regarding any and all claims and counterclaims between them with respect to the subject matter of the arbitrated dispute. The Parties hereby waive all jurisdictional defenses in connection with any arbitration hereunder or the enforcement of an order or award rendered pursuant thereto (assuming that the terms and conditions of this arbitration clause have been complied with).

(h)           The Parties hereby agree that, for purposes of the New York Convention, the relationship between the Parties is commercial in nature, and that any disputes between the Parties related to this Agreement shall be deemed commercial.

(i)            With respect to any order issued by the arbitrator(s) pursuant to this Agreement, the Parties expressly agree and consent (i) to the bringing of an action by one Party against the other in the federal courts of the Northern District of California to

32

enforce and confirm such order; (ii) that such order shall be conclusive proof of the validity of the determination(s) of the arbitrator(s) underlying such order; and (iii) that any court having jurisdiction or any federal court sitting in the Northern District of California may enter judgment upon and enforce such order, whether pursuant to the New York Convention, the U.S. Arbitration Act, or otherwise.

(j)            The arbitrators shall apply and comply with Applicable Law in reaching their decisions. The arbitrators shall issue a written explanation of the reasons for the award and a full statement of the facts as found and the rules of law applied in reaching their decision to both Parties. The arbitrator shall apportion to each Party all costs (other than attorneys’ fees) incurred in conducting the arbitration in accordance with what he deems just and equitable under the circumstances. Any provisional remedy which would be available to a court of law shall be available from the arbitrator(s) pending arbitration of the dispute. Either Party may make an application to the arbitrator seeking injunctive or other interim relief, and the arbitrator may take whatever interim measures they deem necessary in respect of the subject matter of the dispute, including measures to maintain the status quo until such time as the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award any remedy or relief that a court of the State of California could order or grant, including, without limitation, specific performance of any obligation created under this Agreemen t or the issuance of an injunction, but shall NOT have the authority to award any remedy or relief that could not be granted by a court in the State of California applying California law.

(k)           The Parties may file an application in any proper court for a provisional remedy in connection with an arbitrable controversy, but only upon the ground that the award to which the applicant may be entitled may be rendered ineffectual without provisional relief.

(l)  ;           After the appointment of the arbitrators, the parties to the arbitration shall have the right to take depositions and to obtain discovery regarding the subject matter of the arbitration, and, to that end, to use and exercise all the same rights, remedies, and procedures, and be subject to all of the same duties, liabilities, and obligations in the arbitration with respect to the subject matter thereof, as provided in Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 1985) of, and Article 3 (commencing with Section 2016) of Chapter 3 of Title 3 of Part 4 of the California Code of Civil Procedure, as if the subject matter of the arbitration were pending in a civil action before a superior court in California.

7.5           BROKERS.

Each of the Company and the Investor agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless the other and its Affiliates from and against any and all claims, liabilities, or obligations with respect to brokerage or finders’ fees or commissions or consulting fees in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement asserted by any

33

Person on the basis of any agreement, statement or representation alleged to have been made by such Party.
