If Licensee fails to reach the Market Penetration Targets Fox shall in its sole discretion have the right to terminate Licensee’s exclusivity under this Agreement. In the event of termination of Licensee’s exclusivity for Licensee’s failure to achieve the Market Penetration Targets, Fox shall not distribute the Wireless Products which have been developed by Licensee prior to such termination, without first obtaining a license from Licensee on terms to be mutually agreed in each party’s reasonable discretion, for the exploitation of the Licensee Materials.
(2) Targeted Releases: Fox acknowledges that Licensee may not be able to secure placement of all Targeted Releases at the levels set forth for the Market Penetration Targets defined in the previous sub-Paragraph.

Licensee further acknowledges and agrees that pursuant to the VGSL Agreement and the T-Mobile Agreement, VGSL and T-Mobile will remit directly to Fox all receipts generated from sales of the Wireless Products to VGSL and T-Mobile subscribers. Fox will pass through all such receipts received from VGSL and T-Mobile to Licensee and such receipts shall be treated as Gross Receipts, as defined in Paragraph 7(a)(ii) below, for the purpose of this Agreement. Licensee shall not enter into an exclusive distribution agreement with

a CSP in any of the VGSL Territories listed in Paragraph 2(c)(ii)(A) below, and Fox has not granted and will not grant any exclusive distribution rights to VGSL or T-Mobile. Fox and Licensee will cooperate together in good faith, on a schedule to be mutually agreed, to jointly manage the VGSL and T-Mobile relationships with respect to the Wireless Products, subject to willingness on the parts of VGSL and T-Mobile to so cooperate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any conversations undertaken between Fox and VGSL and/or T-Mobile without Licensee’s participation shall not be a breach of this provision.

(iii) Japan Distribution: Upon Fox’s notice to Licensee, Licensee shall cease immediately some or all distribution of the Wireless Products in Japan. In the event Fox provides such termination notice to Licensee, Licensee hereby grants Fox a license to the Licensee Materials in order for Fox to distribute the Wireless Products that Licensee has developed for distribution in Japan prior to such termination, either directly or through a third-party. In consideration of such license, Fox shall pay Licensee a royalty as set forth in Paragraph 7(b)(i) below.
(iv) Unless otherwise mutually agreed between Fox and Licensee, Licensee will require each Licensed CSP to distribute Wireless Products to end users only for the payment of a fee; provided that Licensee may permit limited distribution (i.e. one Wireless Product per Property in each category of Wireless Products and including only one game level for each game) of Wireless Products without a fee for promotional or marketing purposes. The fees will typically appear on the end user’s Wireless Platform bill and be remitted by the end user to the CSP pursuant to an agreement between the end user and the CSP. The CSP will in turn remit fees to Licensee (less any Deductions as that term is defined in Paragraph 7(a)(ii) below) pursuant to an agreement between Licensee and the CSP. Licensee will then remit royalties to Fox in accordance with Paragraph 7, below.

Should Licensee choose to exercise its Right of First Negotiation, its floor bid shall be at least US$***** for each Major Release (as defined in Exhibit N).
5. ADVANCE: Licensee shall pay Fox a non-refundable recoupable advance in the amount of US$***** upon Licensee’s signature of this Agreement (the “Advance”).

Each Treatment shall be subject to Fox’s approval, which approval is within Fox’s discretion. Once a Treatment is approved by Fox and to the extent the approved Treatment requires compatibility input from a Licensed CSP, it shall be Licensee’s sole responsibility to secure concept approval from such Licensed CSP. If the Licensed CSP requires changes, modifications or alterations to a Treatment, or to any element of the Wireless Products, Licensee shall seek Fox’s written approval of any such change, which approval may be withheld in Fox’s sole discretion.
(iii) Design Document: Once a given Treatment is approved by Fox, Licensee shall then submit to Fox a game design document (“Design Document”) which will lay out the creative and technical aspects for the Wireless Product, including how Licensee intends to use the Property and the PSM in the Wireless Product.

(A) Modifications: After approval of a Beta Prototype, Licensee shall not modify the Wireless Products without the prior written approval of Fox. For purposes of this paragraph, porting, enhancements, optimization (which alters the content displayed in any material manner) and localization shall be deemed a modification requiring Fox’s prior written approval. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Porting that does not require substantive changes to a Wireless Product will not be deemed a modification requiring Fox’s prior approval.
     (b) Approval Process:
(i) Evaluation: Fox shall approve or reject in writing all Treatments, Design Documents, Alpha Prototypes, and Beta Prototypes submitted to it for its approval (each individually a “Deliverable”). Fox’s approval or rejection of all Deliverables shall be rendered in good faith.

Wireless Products, then Fox and Licensee shall mutually and in good faith discuss and agree to any adjustments in the Wireless Products Latest Commencement Date which are necessary due to such delay.

All materials created hereunder shall be prepared by an employee-for-hire of Licensee under Licensee’s sole supervision, responsibility and monetary obligation, or, if third parties who are not employees of Licensee, including without limitation all software developers developing the Wireless Products contribute to the creation of any Fox Intellectual Property, Licensee shall obtain from such third parties a full written assignment of rights so that all right, title and interest in the Fox Intellectual Property shall vest in Fox.
(c) Licensee Materials: Licensee owns and shall retain all right, title, and interest in and to (i) all software source code, tools, and technical documentation used by or for Licensee to create the Wireless Products, including without limitation any and all software code included in the Wireless Products, (ii) all aspects and elements of the Wireless Products other than the Fox Intellectual Property therein, including without limitation any and all gaming engines, game concepts, rules, scripts, and other Intellectual Property Rights therein; and (iii) any and all Intellectual Property Rights in any of the foregoing (the “Licensee Materials”).

Licensee hereby does irrevocably transfer and assign to Fox any and all Moral Rights that Licensee may have in Fox’s Intellectual Property Rights in and to the PSM and the Fox Intellectual Property and any derivative works thereof and shall cause Licensee’s employees and contractors, including Licensee’s developers of the Wireless Products, to do likewise. Licensee hereby does forever waive and agree never to assert any and all Moral Rights it may have in Fox’s Intellectual Property Rights in and to the PSM and the Fox Intellectual Property and any derivative works thereof and shall cause its employees and contractors (including the developers) to do likewise.
(e) Licensee Cooperation: Licensee shall not by any act or omission to act impair or prejudice the Intellectual Property Rights of Fox in the PSM, the Fox Intellectual Property or the Properties, or violate any moral rights or deal with the PSM, the Fox Intellectual Property or Properties so that any third party might obtain any lien or other right of whatever nature incompatible with the Intellectual Property Rights of Fox. Licensee agrees to notify Fox of any known or suspected infringement of Fox’s Intellectual Property Rights in the PSM and the Property that comes to Licensee’s attention and to assist Fox, at Fox’s expense, in taking such action as Fox, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or appropriate to prevent or remedy such infringing activities.

    (d) Sole Remedy. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH 14 SET FORTH EACH PARTY’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE OBLIGATIONS AND REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO THIRD PARTY CLAIMS OF INFRINGEMENT OR MISAPPROPRIATION OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANY KIND UNLESS OTHERWISE STIPULATED BY JUDICIAL ORDER.
 
15.   TERMINATION:
 
    (a) Termination Rights;
      (i) Bankruptcy: If Licensee’s liabilities exceed its assets, or if Licensee becomes unable to pay its debts as they become due, or files or has filed against Licensee a petition in bankruptcy, reorganization or for the adoption of an arrangement under any present or future bankruptcy, reorganization or similar law (which petition if filed against Licensee shall not be dismissed within 30 days from the filing date), or if Licensee makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or is adjudicated a bankrupt, or if a receiver or trustee of all or substantially all of Licensee’s property is appointed, or if Licensee discontinues its business, this Agreement shall automatically terminate forthwith without notice to Licensee.

      (ii) Transfer or Change of Control: If a substantial portion of the assets or controlling stock in Licensee’s business is sold or transferred, or if there is a substantial change in Licensee’s management, or if Licensee’s property is expropriated, confiscated or nationalized by any government or if any government assumes de facto control of Licensee’s business, in whole or in part, Fox may terminate this Agreement upon 30 days’ notice to Licensee.
 
      (iii) Unauthorized Uses: If Licensee transfers, sells or distributes to any unauthorized third party any artwork, voice clips, or other Fox proprietary materials related to the Property including but not limited to Marketing Materials, then Fox may terminate this Agreement forthwith on written notice without any cure period.
 
      (iv) Failure to Exploit: If Licensee fails to exploit the PSM as set forth in Paragraph 2(a) and 2(b), or fails to release the Wireless Products in accordance with the dates set forth in Paragraph 2(b), then Fox may terminate this Agreement forthwith on written notice without any cure period subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Paragraph 2(a) and 2(b), respectively.
 
      (v) Failure to Obtain Approvals: If Licensee releases a Wireless Product without first obtaining Fox’s approval as specifically set forth in this Agreement in Paragraph 9, then Fox may terminate this Agreement forthwith on written notice without any cure period.
 
      (vi) Other Defaults: Excepting only those Licensee defaults in this Paragraph 15 which permit Fox to terminate immediately without any cure period for Licensee, if either party fails to perform any of its material obligations hereunder, the other party may terminate this Agreement upon 30 days’ notice, unless the breaching party cures any such breach within said 30 days and gives notice to the other party thereof within that period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that either party (A) fails to pay Royalties or other amounts when due, or (B) fails to make Royalty or other accountings in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then the breaching party shall be subject to a one-time cure period of fifteen (15) days for such breach. If a party fails to cure the breach within such fifteen (15)-day period or another breach of either (A) or (B) above occurs following an initial cure within the fifteen (15)-day period, then the other party shall have the right in its sole discretion to terminate this Agreement forthwith on written notice without any cure period.
 
      (vii) Other Agreements: Should any event of default by Licensee cause Fox to terminate this Agreement, Fox, in its sole discretion, may terminate, without any cure period, any other agreements concurrently existing between Fox and Licensee upon written notice specifying the agreements to be terminated. For the avoidance of doubt, this remedy shall only apply to any agreements concurrently existing between the specific parties to this Agreement and shall not apply to agreements between Licensee and Fox Sports.
    (b)    Effect of Termination/Expiration: In the event of termination of this Agreement, Licensee shall: (i) immediately stop in all respects the sale and distribution of the Wireless Products and provide Fox with a complete inventory report and accounting with

    payment of all Royalties, and (ii) at Fox’s election shall either (A) deliver to Fox all materials related to the Wireless Products or (B) give Fox satisfactory evidence of their destruction. Licensee agrees that its failure to stop in all respects the sale and/or distribution of the Wireless Products upon termination or expiration of the Agreement will result in immediate irreparable damage to Fox for which there is no adequate remedy at law, and in the event of such failure by Licensee, Fox shall be entitled to injunctive relief. Fox’s exercise of any of the foregoing remedies shall not operate as a waiver of any other rights or remedies which Fox may have. Fox shall not distribute the Wireless Products after the termination or expiration of this Agreement without obtaining from Licensee a separate license to the Licensee Materials.
(i) Sell-Off Period: Notwithstanding Paragraph 15(b), in the event of termination of this Agreement, Licensee shall have a period of ***** from the date of such termination (unless such termination occurs less than ***** prior to the expiration of this Agreement in which case the time period shall be shortened accordingly so as not to exceed the date of expiration) in which to sell-off existing inventory of Wireless Products already in the Distribution Channels (“Sell Off Period”). Licensee agrees that no additional Wireless Products may be developed or distributed during the Sell Off Period and Licensee agrees to require that any Licensed CSP to comply with this provision. Upon the expiration of the Sell Off Period, Licensee agrees to destroy all such remaining inventory and confirm same in writing to Fox (and require that any Licensed CSP do the same). Any revenues, credits or other consideration received by Licensee for the Wireless Products during the Sell Off Period will be subject to Licensee’s obligation to pay Fox Royalties pursuant to Paragraph 7 above.
(ii) Fox’s Development of Wireless Products: In the event of termination or expiration of this Agreement or Licensee’s loss of exclusive rights under this Agreement, Fox shall be free to create and exploit, or have a third party create or exploit, wireless products which may be similar to those developed and distributed by Licensee pursuant to this Agreement for the Properties.
    (c) Guarantee Forfeiture: In the event of termination of this Agreement and without limitation of Fox’s rights and remedies all of which are expressly reserved, the following payment penalties shall apply: (i) if termination occurs in the first year of the Term, Licensee shall forfeit any Guarantee paid, and shall immediately pay any remaining Guarantee, up to the amount of ***** dollars (US$*****), and any Guarantee payments made in excess of ***** dollars ($*****) shall be refunded by Fox to Licensee; and (ii) if termination occurs in the second year of the Term, Licensee shall forfeit any Guarantee paid, and shall immediately pay any remaining portion of the Guarantee then unpaid, up to the amount of ***** dollars (US$*****). Any forfeited Guarantees will apply as a set off against any additional damages claimed by Fox.
