Exhibit A

MINIMUM BRANDING FOR COVERED DEVICES

The intent of the minimum branding guidelines for the Covered Devices is to allow a consumer to recognize the Covered Device as a BBY product with TiVo features but also to ensure that the Covered Device is distinct from the Media Application. Branding will be implemented as per TiVo Trademark Usage Guidelines set forth in Exhibit B (“TiVo Trademark Usage Guidelines and Policies”).

 

  1. TiVo Screens. Unless otherwise mutually agreed in a Non-DVR Statement of Work, [*].

 

  2. Loopsets/Animations. The Non-DVR Media Application may include background animations called loopsets to the extent technically feasible. [*].

 

  3. Sounds. With respect to any remote control included with any Covered Device, upon mutual agreement of TiVo and BBY, then where technically feasible, the trademarked TiVo sounds that play in the user interface when each button on the remote is pressed are required elements of TiVo branding. These sounds may include: arrow up/down; left arrow; right arrow; page up; page down; bonk; select; central chime; showcase transitions; dialog chime; replay; fast forward; and rewind.
