undertakings, to provide certain services to the Company and its subsidiaries
necessary for the conduct by the Company of its Business (as defined herein).

body of this Agreement shall have the meaning given to such terms in Attachment
----------
A. Other capitalized terms without definition shall have the meanings given in
-
the Certificate of Incorporation. Unless the context clearly indicates
otherwise, any term defined or used in the singular will include the plural.
Use of the term "include" or "including" will be construed to mean "include
without limitation" or "including without limitation", as applicable.
2. GRANT OF RIGHTS.
2.1 License Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement
-------------
and the Certificate of Incorporation, Licensor hereby grants to Licensee an
exclusive (with respect to PC Access Services, TV Access Services and Wireless
Access Services and a non-exclusive (except as provided in Section 2.9 below)
with respect to Internet Portal Services), but subject to
-1-
termination of exclusivity pursuant to Section 5 below, non-transferable (except
as expressly provided herein) right and license within the Territory to:
(a) implement, transmit, display, copy, perform and use the Licensed
Products for the sole purpose of, and as necessary for, enabling Licensee to
Launch, operate, provide, manage and administer Licensee Interactive Services in
the Territory as contemplated herein,
(b) sublicense the Client Product to Subscribers pursuant and subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in the subscriber agreements which are
part of the AOL Standard Forms to be used by Licensee pursuant to Section 3.3
below,
(c) access, display and grant to Subscribers (with respect to PC
Access Services, TV Access Services and Wireless Access Services) and to users
of Licensee's Internet Portal Services, the right to access Content through
Licensee Interactive Services, including AOL Services Content and other Content,
but excluding Restricted Content,
(d) market and distribute the Client Product to potential Subscribers
in the Territory directly and through authorized third parties that so market
and distribute on Licensee's behalf,
(e) use Licensor's Confidential Information and Licensed Products only
to the extent necessary (i) to allow Licensee to Launch, provide, manage,
administer and market Licensee Interactive Services in the Territory, (ii) to
allow Licensee to develop, create, procure, market, transmit, maintain, enhance,
manage and administer Content for use in connection with Licensee Interactive
Services, and (iii) to allow Content providers to develop, create, transmit,
procure, market, maintain, enhance, manage and administer Content pursuant and
subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Content provider agreements
which are part of the AOL Standard Forms to be used by Licensee pursuant to
Section 3.3 below,
(f) use Licensor's training and technical support for the sole purpose
of enabling Licensee to Launch, operate, provide and manage, and administer
Licensee Interactive Services as contemplated herein, and
(g) translate and modify online forms included within the Licensed
Products as reasonably necessary to conform such forms to the local languages,
laws and business practices of the Territory.
All of the foregoing rights are granted solely in connection with the Launch,
operation, provision, management and administration of Licensee Interactive
Services during the Term.
2.2 Third Party Products. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
--------------------
Agreement, Licensor grants to Licensee the same license rights in respect of
Third Party Products that Licensor has granted in respect of the Licensed
Products in Section 2.1, but only to the extent that Licensor is permitted to
grant such license rights to Licensee and subject to the payment of applicable
third-party royalties or fees, if any, as specified in this Section 2.2. All of
the foregoing rights are granted solely in connection with the Launch,
operation, provision, management and administration of Licensee Interactive
Services during the Term. Licensor shall sublicense to Licensee all of such
license rights to Third Party Products to the extent Licensor
-2-
has such rights as of the Effective Date and thereafter during the Term to the
extent Licensor has such rights and to the extent that Licensor has licensed,
offered to license or otherwise made available such Third Party Products to
other JV Affiliates consistent with AOL's Uniform Policies. Licensor shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from third parties the best overall
terms for such licenses, which may include royalty bearing licenses as provided
in this Section 2.2, to permit Licensee to use all other Third Party Products.
Licensee shall reasonably assist Licensor in obtaining such licenses and shall
execute any required license agreements if so requested by Licensor. In the
event Licensor's efforts to obtain from a third party appropriate licenses to
permit Licensee to use a Third Party Product are unsuccessful, Licensor shall
use commercially reasonable efforts, at Licensee's expense but in Licensor's
reasonable discretion, either (a) to obtain from another third party license
rights to reasonably similar software that may be substituted for the
unavailable Third Party Product or (b) to develop a commercially reasonable
workaround for the unavailable Third Party Product during the period of its
unavailability. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that prior to the exercise of
any of the rights specified in this Section 2.2, the exercise of which require
that Licensee obtain license rights directly from the owners of Third Party
Products, Licensee shall, with Licensor's commercially reasonable assistance,
first have obtained all necessary license rights from the owners of Third Party
Products to use such products. For the avoidance of doubt, Licensor's obligation
to assist Licensee in obtaining such license rights shall not oblige Licensor to
pay any royalties, fees or other consideration for such rights, or otherwise to
provide financial assistance of any sort to Licensee. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, Licensee shall have no obligation to license or use
any Third Party Product for which Licensee is required to pay any expense,
royalty or fee if other JV Affiliates are not required to use such Third Party
Product pursuant to AOL's Uniform Policies consistently applied to all JV
Affiliates. Licensee must, however, accept any license and pay any royalties
required for use of Third Party Products which are Requested Developments or New
AOL Developments. The foregoing shall be applicable only with respect to PC
Access Services until such time as the Company and Licensee shall obtain the
right to offer such TV Access Services and Wireless Access Services in the
Territory in accordance with the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation.
If and when the Company and Licensee shall obtain the right to offer such TV
Access Services and Wireless Access Services in the Territory, AOL and Licensor
shall provide such Requested Developments and New AOL Developments to Licensee
in respect of such TV Access Services and Wireless Access Services in the
Territory on the same basis as it has theretofore provided them in respect of PC
Access Services.
(a) Licensee Payments for Third Party Products. Subject to Section
------------------------------------------
2.2(b), Licensee shall pay Third Party Product fees and royalties under the
following circumstances: (i) the licensor of a Third Party Product demands a
payment to expand the scope of the existing license grant to permit Licensee to
use the Third Party Product, e.g., to expand existing geographic or usage
restrictions; or (ii) (x) AOL's license agreement with the licensor of the Third
Party Product contains a per host computer charge, per client charge, usage
charge or other charge or fee based upon the nature of the use thereof, and (y)
AOL has dedicated one or more host computers to Licensee, regardless of the
physical location of such computers, or Licensee's use of such Third Party
Products otherwise gives rise to such per client, usage or other charge or fee.
Licensor shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain for Licensee
such Third Party Products at fees and royalty rates that are the lowest that can
be obtained and at least as
-3-
favorable as similar fees and royalty rates paid by JV Affiliates on the
Effective Date or thereafter during the Term (taking into account as appropriate
the level of usage and other factors that reasonably impact royalties and fees).
Licensee shall also pay all costs and expenses associated with (A) translating
or otherwise modifying the Third Party Product for use in the Territory; (B)
modifying the Third Party Product to enable such software to be exported to the
Territory; and (C) complying with any import or export control regulations of
the relevant jurisdiction(s) to enable the Third Party Product to be imported
into or exported to the Territory. Licensor represents that in the year
preceding the Effective Date, the total of all royalties, fees and other costs
and expenses attributable to existing Third Party Products for any JV Affiliate
AOL Service in any country did not exceed fifty thousand dollars ($50,000).
(b) Spun-off Licensed Products. In the event AOL and/or its Wholly-
--------------------------
Owned Affiliates should cease to own any component of the Licensed Products,
such component (i) shall, if it is a Core AOL Technology, be deemed a Licensed
Product for the Term and shall not be deemed to be a Third Party Product, and
(ii) shall, if (x) it is a Peripheral AOL Technology, (y) AOL and/or such
Wholly-Owned Affiliate cease to own such Peripheral AOL Technology for a bona
fide business purpose (including achieving wider promulgation of technology in
the marketplace, attracting qualified developers, or achieving enhanced
technical capability, support, maintenance, development or training in respect
of such Peripheral AOL Technology), and (z) the treatment of such Peripheral AOL
Technology as a Third-Party Product would not cause Licensee, at any time during
the Term, to pay greater fees or royalties (taking into account as appropriate
the level of usage and other factors that reasonably impact royalties and fees)
than AOL or any of its Affiliates or JV Affiliates providing AOL Services, then
such Peripheral AOL Technology shall be deemed a Licensed Product for eighteen
(18) months (or such longer period as is consistent with subsection (z) above)
after such Licensed Product component is no longer owned by AOL and/or its
Wholly-Owned Affiliates and shall thereafter be deemed a Third Party Product .
Under such circumstances, if AOL and/or any of its Wholly-Owned Affiliates
elect(s) to use the technology of a third party in lieu of any component of the
Peripheral AOL Technology in providing AOL-US Service, such component shall be
deemed a Licensed Product for eighteen (18) months (or such longer period as is
consistent with subsection (z) above) after AOL elects to use such technology
and shall thereafter be deemed a Third Party Product for the purposes of this
Agreement, subject to subsection (z) above.
2.3 Documentation. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
-------------
Licensor hereby grants to Licensee an exclusive (with respect to PC Access
Services, TV Access Services and Wireless Access Services) and a non-exclusive
(except as provided in Section 2.9 below, with respect to Internet Portal
Services), but subject to the termination of exclusivity pursuant to Section 5
below, non-transferable (except as provided herein) license in the Territory to
use, translate into the local language(s) of the Territory, display and
reproduce the Documentation relating to the Licensed Products only within the
Territory and to the extent necessary to Launch, operate, provide, manage and
administer the Licensee Interactive Services; provided, however that Licensee
shall have no right to, and Licensee agrees not to, adapt, alter, modify or
create derivative works of the Documentation other than the translation(s)
contemplated above. Licensor shall provide Licensee with the Documentation set
forth in Attachment B with respect to PC Access Services, and appropriate
------------
documentation as Licensor and Licensee mutually deem necessary or desirable upon
the addition of TV Access Services and/or Wireless Access Services
-4-
to the Licensee Interactive Services being provided by Licensee. Licensor
reserves the right to amend Attachment B from time to time to permit Licensor to
make such reasonable changes as are necessary for Licensor to provide such
Documentation on a consistent worldwide basis. Licensor shall provide Licensee
with prior notice of such amendments to Attachment B. All of the foregoing
rights granted to Licensee are granted solely in connection with the Launch,
operation, provision, management and administration of Licensee Interactive
Services during the Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Content provider's
guide or the remote managed gateways guide may also be distributed to Content
providers to Licensee Interactive Services provided that Licensee has entered
into an agreement with each such Content provider substantially consistent with
the Content provider agreements which are part of the AOL Standard Forms to be
used by Licensee pursuant to Section 3.3 below, as the same may be modified from
time to time. Licensor shall own all right, title, and interest in the
Documentation and all translations of the Documentation. Licensee shall place on
all such copies of the Documentation an internationally recognized copyright
notice and other proprietary rights legends specified by Licensor. All
translated Documentation will be considered works made for hire commissioned by
Licensor such that copyright ownership of such translations shall immediately
vest in Licensor. If any such Documentation may not be considered works made for
hire under applicable law, Licensee hereby irrevocably assigns to Licensor
without further consideration all of Licensee's right, title and interest in and
to such Documentation, including U.S. and foreign copyrights. Licensee shall
distribute such translations only within the Territory and in connection with
the Licensed Products to the extent provided above.
2.4 AOL Services Content. Without limiting the scope of the license set
--------------------
forth in Section 2.1, Licensor shall provide to Licensee and Licensee's
Subscribers to its PC Access Services, free of charge, access to substantially
all of the AOL-US Services Content and substantially all of the other AOL
Services Content. In addition, Licensor shall provide to Licensee and to users
of Licensee's Internet Portal Services access to AOL-US Services Content and
other AOL Services Content in substantially the same manner they are made
available to users of AOL's US-based Internet Services Portal. As and when the
Company and Licensee shall obtain the right to offer TV Access Services and
Wireless Access Services in the Territory in accordance with the provisions of
the Certificate of Incorporation, Licensor shall provide to Licensee and
Licensee's Subscribers to such Services access to the AOL-US Services Content
and the other AOL Services Content in substantially the same manner such Content
is made available to users of AOL-branded TV Access Services and AOL-branded
Wireless Access Services in the U.S. With respect to any other AOL Services
Content, Licensor shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the
rights to provide to Licensee and Licensee's Subscribers access to such other
AOL Services Content on commercially reasonable terms that are as favorable as
access to such Content is made available to any other JV Affiliate. Licensee
may, in the reasonable discretion of the Board of Directors, which the Board of
Directors may exercise for Licensee or on behalf of an Operating Entity,
prominently display its Interconnection pursuant to Section 2.5 of the AOL OLS
Agreement to the AOL-US Service and the other AOL Services and minimize the
number of click throughs from the main menus of the Licensee Interactive
Services necessary to access the main menus of the AOL-US Services and other AOL
Services, in order to facilitate Subscribers' access to the Content on such AOL
Services. In addition, upon the request of Licensee, Licensor shall provide to
Licensee and Licensee's Subscribers, free of charge, direct access (i.e., other
than through Interconnection) to
-5-
substantially all of the AOL-US Services Content on the same basis, with respect
to the differing Licensee Interactive Services, as is set forth above. The
direct access to other AOL Services and to Content of the AOL-US Service,
contemplated in this Section 2.4 shall be subject, among other reasonable
limitations, to (a) any "referee screens" or other intermediate notices warning
Subscribers that they are changing countries and different standards may
therefore apply, as Licensor deems such notices reasonably necessary to
accommodate local legal and cultural concerns, (b) coordination with the AOL
Services and their respective Content channels to ensure that such access by the
Licensee Interactive Services is technically feasible and will not result in the
distribution of any Restricted Content, and (c) any technical limitations not
due to Licensor's failure to meet its obligations under this Agreement or the
AOL OLS Agreement, which failure is within AOL's reasonable control, precluding
Interconnection or direct access, such as the inability of the Licensee
Interactive Services to access and process Japanese characters.
2.5 License Fees. (a) Except as set forth in this Section 2.5 or as
------------
otherwise expressly provided herein, the licenses granted in Sections 2.1, 2.2,
2.3 and 4.1 shall be royalty-free; provided, however, that to the extent that
any royalty shall be deemed by applicable tax law to exist by virtue of this
Agreement, Licensee will be responsible for any taxes associated therewith.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and to the extent that any court
of competent jurisdiction shall invalidate, delete, amend, sever or otherwise
modify any of the provisions of (i) Clauses (c), (d), (e) or (f) of Article
THIRD of the Certificate of Incorporation (or any successors thereto), (ii)
Section 6.4(c) hereof, or (iii) Section 10.2 of the Stockholders' Agreement,
with the result that AOL or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including,
without limitation, Licensor, but excluding the Company, Licensee and each and
every Operating Entity) becomes liable to the Company, Licensee, any Operating
Entity or any holders of any equity interests in any of them, including, without
limitation, any holders of Class A Common Stock of the Company, for, or
otherwise incurs any, Damages arising out of or in connection with any action or
inaction that was permitted by the provisions of Article THIRD of the
Certificate of Incorporation as in effect as of the time of such action or
inaction (without taking into account any such invalidation, deletion,
amendment, severance or other modification), then Licensee shall be obligated to
pay Licensor a royalty in respect of the licenses granted in Sections 2.1, 2.2,
2.3, 2.9, if any, and 4.1 in an amount equal, in the aggregate, to the full
amount of such Damages, as the same may be incurred from time to time. Such
royalty payments shall be due and payable by Licensee on the date that is thirty
(30) days after receipt of an invoice therefor from Licensor.
2.6 License Limitations.
-------------------
(a) License Exclusions. The licenses granted pursuant to Sections 2.1
------------------
through 2.3 do not include, and Licensee shall have no right hereunder, under
any circumstances, to receive, use or make copies of the Source Code for the
Licensed Products or Third Party Products. Further, the licenses granted
pursuant to Sections 2.1 through 2.3 do not include the right to, and Licensee
agrees not to (i) except to the extent contemplated under Sections 2.3 and
2.1(a) herein and Section 2.2 of the AOL OLS Agreement, adapt, alter, modify,
translate or create derivative works of the Licensed Products, Third Party
Products, Documentation or AOL Services Content, (ii) reverse engineer,
decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to
-6-
reconstruct the Source Code for the Licensed Products or Third Party Products or
(iii) reverse engineer, reconstruct or otherwise attempt to ascertain, or adapt,
alter or modify, the proprietary protocols, algorithms, internal instructions
and command sets used in the operation of the Licensed Products or the Third
Party Products. Licensee may exercise the license rights granted pursuant to
Sections 2.1 through 2.3 and pursuant to Section 2.9, if any, only within the
Territory; Licensee shall have no right or license, express or implied, to
exercise any of such license rights outside the Territory.
(b) Restricted Content. Licensee agrees that it is necessary, inter
------------------
alia, in order to observe and comply with applicable local laws and the rights
of Content providers and other Persons, not to use, reproduce, market,
distribute, display, perform, transmit or grant access to Restricted Content.
Consistent with AOL's Uniform Policies regarding Restricted Content, in the
event Licensor requests the removal of, or the restriction of access to,
Restricted Content, Licensee shall cooperate, at its own expense, to effectuate
the prompt removal or restriction of access to such Restricted Content and to
take such other actions as Licensor may reasonably specify from time to time in
order to comply with such laws, third-party rights and/or AOL's Uniform Policies
consistently applied to all JV Affiliates.
(c) Implementation of Charges for Access to Content. Licensee agrees
-----------------------------------------------
to pay when due all royalties, fees and other amounts owed to any Licensee
Interactive Services Content provider for Content made available on the AOL
Services that would not have been due in the absence of the access to and usage
of such Content by Subscribers of such AOL Services and otherwise to comply with
the obligations of Licensee under any applicable agreement with the Content
provider. Likewise, Licensee shall have no obligation to pay any royalties,
fees or other amounts due to any Content provider to any other AOL Service.
Licensor shall have the right to implement applicable hourly or other charges
for access to and usage of Content of a particular AOL Service by Subscribers of
other AOL Services (including the Licensee Interactive Services), so long as
such charges apply equally to all AOL Services, including the AOL-US Service and
Licensee Interactive Services. As of the Effective Date, however, Licensor
imposes no such charges.
2.7 Licensee Content. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
----------------
Agreement and the right of Interconnection between and among AOL Services
pursuant to Section 2.5 of the AOL OLS Agreement, Licensee hereby grants to AOL
and its Affiliates the non-transferable (except as expressly provided herein)
right to access, and to grant to Subscribers to AOL Services the right to
access, via Interconnection, substantially all Content available through the
Licensee Interactive Services, including Licensee Content and other Content, but
excluding Restricted Content. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Licensor
implements a charge between and among AOL Services (including the Licensee
Interactive Services) for access to and usage of Content of each respective AOL
Service pursuant to Section 2.5(c) above, then Licensee will be entitled to
receive payments to the extent that its Licensee Interactive Services' Content
is accessed by Subscribers of the other AOL Services.
2.8 Right to Sublicense. Licensee shall, subject to the approval of the
-------------------
Board of Directors, have the right to sublicense Licensee's rights under
Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 4.1 of this Agreement as reasonably necessary to
provide Licensee Interactive Services, including the development of Content for
such services and the distribution of the Client Product to
-7-
Subscribers of such services and to Operating Entities that are established
pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation.
2.9 Rights to AOL-Branded Internet Portal Services.
----------------------------------------------
(a) If AOL or any of its Special Affiliates intends to offer any
Internet Portal Service, then Licensee shall have the prior option, exercisable
within six (6) months following notice of such intent from AOL, to offer such
service in the Territory on an exclusive basis, subject to payment to AOL of
[**************************************************
*********************************]. If Licensee elects not to offer such
service in the Territory or does not exercise such option within the six-month
period, then AOL shall have the right to offer such service in the Territory
directly or together with a third party (on financial terms not more favorable
than those offered to Licensee), [****************************
**************************************************] for the use of the AOL or
CompuServe name in the Territory; provided, however, that in no event shall AOL
or its Special Affiliates be entitled to use the AOL or CompuServe name as
provided above in connection with a Directly Competitive Service (as defined
below). For avoidance of doubt, AOL and ODC shall have the right without any
first offer or other obligations to Licensee, to provide a non-AOL-branded or
non-CompuServe-branded Spanish and/or Portuguese language Internet Portal
Service and which is targeted to end users residing in the Territory, but
neither AOL or ODC shall have the right to Interconnect such service with any
AOL-branded or CompuServe-branded Access Service. A "Directly Competitive
Service" shall mean an online or Internet service, that may be but need not be
an Access Service, having comprehensive Content, Communications Services,
features and functions comparable to the existing AOL-US Service (e.g., Yahoo
and Star Media).
(b) If, in accordance with Section 2.9(a), Licensee elects to offer an
Internet Portal Service, then the Parties will, in good faith, negotiate and
execute any agreements necessary to effect the Launch and operation of such
services by Licensee in the Territory including license agreements and service
agreements substantially similar, as applicable, to this Agreement, the AOL OLS
Agreement, the CIS License and the CIS OLS Agreement.
(c) If the Parties are unable to agree on a reasonable license fee or
other reasonable compensation or payment in connection with Section 2.9(a) for
the use of the AOL or CompuServe name or for the allocable pro-rata share of
AOL's cost of developing and/or acquiring a service, then such license fee or
other compensation or payment shall be determined in accordance with the then
current arbitration procedures of the American Arbitration Association.
3. LICENSE REQUIREMENTS.
3.1 Proprietary Notices. Licensee agrees not to obfuscate, remove or
-------------------
alter any of the patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, proprietary and
other legal notices contained in, or displayed by the use of, the Licensed
Products, Documentation, AOL Services Content or Third Party Products. Licensee
further agrees to reproduce, in each copy of the Licensed Products,
Documentation, AOL Services Content or Third Party Products that is made by
Licensee, such patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, proprietary and other
legal notices that are included in
-8-
the Licensed Products, Documentation or Third Party Product provided by Licensor

Documentation in any communication with Licensor, including receipt of technical
support from Licensor.
3.3 AOL Standard Forms. Licensor shall provide Licensee with such

relevant AOL Standard Forms that should be used by Licensee in connection with
the Licensee Interactive Services, including the forms identified on Attachment
----------
C hereto. Licensee shall, at its own expense, translate the AOL Standard Forms
-
into the local language(s) applicable to the Territory. Except as specifically
set forth in this Agreement, Licensee shall use all such translated AOL Standard
Forms, provided that Licensee may make reasonable modifications consistent with
AOL's Uniform Policies and business practices to such forms to take into account
applicable business model and legal considerations in the relevant country(s) of
the Territory, provided further that any such modifications shall not (i) limit,
diminish or impair in any manner whatsoever Licensor's rights or the effective
and timely exercise thereof, under this Agreement, or any law, treaty or
convention governing industrial or intellectual property rights, trade secrets
or confidential information which is the subject of this Agreement, or the
performance of any obligation thereunder by either party or its Affiliates or
(ii) violate any US export control law, regulation or order. Licensee shall
notify Licensor of any proposed substantive modifications Licensee makes to any
AOL Standard Form and such modifications shall be subject to AOL's approval,
which it may exercise in its reasonable business judgment.
3.4 Compliance with Encryption and Export/Import Laws. Licensor and
-------------------------------------------------
Licensee shall comply, and Licensee shall require all Permitted Sublicensees to
comply, with all of the then-current and applicable laws, rules and regulations
of the United States and all jurisdictions within the Territory relating to the
use of encryption technology and the import and export of technology, software
and technical data, including, but not limited to, any regulations of the United
States Office of Export Administration, and of any other applicable governmental
agencies, and shall not export or re-export any technology, software, technical
data or the direct product of such technology, software and technical data to
any proscribed country listed in such applicable laws, regulations and rules
unless properly authorized.
3.5 Notification of Unauthorized Use. If either party learns of (a) any
--------------------------------
unauthorized use in the Territory of Licensed Products, Documentation, Third
Party Products, or AOL Services Content, or (b) any AOL Services Content in the
Territory that violates an applicable AOL Service Subscriber agreement or the
rights of any Content provider or other Person, or is otherwise unauthorized
Restricted Content, such party shall promptly inform the other party. In such
an event, Licensee, at its own expense, shall take such steps as Licensor may
reasonably request, to protect the rights of Licensor, Licensee, their
Affiliates, and such Content providers and other Persons. Licensor, at its own
expense, shall provide Licensee with commercially reasonable assistance in
protecting such rights of such Persons.
3.6 Ownership of Licensed Products and Documentation. Subject to
------------------------------------------------
Licensee's express license rights under this Agreement, Licensee acknowledges
and agrees that Licensor
-9-
shall own all right, title, and interest, including all copyrights, trade
secrets, patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, and
other intellectual property and proprietary rights, throughout the world in the
Licensed Products and Documentation (including the New AOL Developments and
Requested Developments). Licensee agrees that it will not at any time (a) do or
cause to be done any act or thing contesting or in any way impairing or intended
to impair any part of such right, title and interest or (b) represent, expressly
or by implication, that it has any right, title or interest in or to any of the
Licensed Products or Documentation (including the New AOL Developments and
Requested Developments) other than as expressly set forth herein.
3.7 Licensee Technology and Content. All technology and Content developed

is independent and not derivative of any Licensed Product, Documentation, Third
Party Products, Content from AOL Services other than Licensee Interactive
Services, or other proprietary Licensor materials licensed hereunder, shall be
the sole property of Licensee and neither AOL nor any of its Affiliates shall
have any rights in or to such technology or Content (other than the right to
Interconnect other AOL Services with the Licensee Interactive Services as
expressly provided in Section 2.5 of the AOL OLS Agreement and to grant
Subscribers of the AOL Services access to such Content as expressly provided
herein and the AOL OLS Agreement).
4. TRADEMARKS.
4.1 License to AOL Marks. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
--------------------
Agreement, Licensor hereby grants to Licensee a non-transferable (except as

license to use the AOL Marks solely for purposes of Launching, operating,
providing, managing and administering in the Territory: (a) AOL-branded PC

Licensee shall not use any proposed additional AOL Xxxx except to the extent it

Further, Licensee may not use any AOL Marks to the extent such use creates a
substantial risk of (x) infringing a third-party's trademark or similar rights
or (y) subjecting Licensee, Licensor or their respective Affiliates to claims of
unfair competition, trademark dilution, passing off or other claims of any sort
arising from use of a false, misleading or confusing xxxx.
4.2 Licensee Marks. Licensor acknowledges and agrees that (i) Licensee
--------------
Marks are and shall remain the sole property of Licensee, (ii) nothing in this
Agreement shall convey to Licensor any right of ownership in the Licensee Marks,
(iii) Licensor shall not now or in the future contest the validity of Licensee
Marks, and (iv) Licensor shall not in any manner take any action that would

a non-transferable (except as expressly set forth herein), worldwide, license to
use in connection with marketing and providing the AOL Services those Licensee
Marks used by Licensee in the Territory on
-10-
Requested Developments ("Licensed Licensee Marks"), provided that such use of
the Licensed Licensee Marks is not primarily directed towards the Territory. In
addition, Licensee hereby grants to Licensor, AOL and its Affiliates a non-
transferable (except as expressly set forth herein), license to use the Licensed
Licensee Marks in the Territory in connection with the marketing and promotion
of the Licensee Interactive Services, provided that any such use is made in
consultation with Licensee and in furtherance of the Business of Licensee.
Except as expressly set forth herein, such license shall be on the same terms
granted by Licensor to Licensee with respect to the AOL Marks as set forth in
this Section 4. The foregoing license grant shall terminate simultaneously with
the termination of this Agreement. Licensor agrees to comply with such specific
standards for use of the Licensed Licensee Marks as Licensee may, in its
reasonable discretion, establish and modify from time to time in writing and
provide to Licensor. All use by Licensor of the Licensed Licensee Marks with
respect to form and appearance shall be subject to the written usage standards
provided to Licensor by Licensee and the prior written approval of Licensee to

arising from use of a false, misleading or confusing xxxx.

---------------------------------
that it is necessary for Licensor to maintain uniform standards governing all
material facets of AOL Services in order to provide AOL Service Subscribers
worldwide with high quality, cost effective and consistent levels of service,
and to protect the reputation and goodwill associated with the AOL Services in
the Interactive Services market. Accordingly, Licensee agrees that it shall
provide goods and services offered under the AOL Marks that are as high in
quality as the quality of the goods and services offered by AOL with respect to
the AOL Services and related merchandise subject to reasonable variations
resulting from business, legal and technical factors within the Territory.
Licensee agrees to comply with such specific standards for use of the AOL Marks
as Licensor may, in its reasonable discretion, establish and modify from time to
time in writing and provide to Licensee. All use by Licensee of the AOL Marks
with respect to form and appearance shall be subject to the written usage
standards provided to Licensee by Licensor and, except to the extent provided in

-----------
expense (except to the extent provided in Section 4.6) and request, to the
extent reasonably necessary to protect

Licensor's rights in the AOL Marks. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, at Licensor's request, Licensee shall (i) promptly provide Licensor
with any trademark specimens, (ii) execute all applications for trademark
registrations, assignments or other applicable documents and (iii) perform any
other act reasonably necessary for Licensor to secure or maintain the AOL Marks
in the Territory. Licensee hereby agrees that it will execute at Licensor's
request such additional license agreements and other documents as may be
necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to comply with the
laws and regulations pertaining to technology or know-how transfer, licensing,
and recordation in the Territory. Finally, Licensor shall consult with Licensee,
as requested by Licensee, from time to time concerning Licensor's use of the AOL
Marks in the Territory on goods or services unassociated with Licensee's
Interactive Services and related merchandise; provided, however, that Licensee
acknowledges and agrees that such consultation rights shall not grant to
Licensee any right to limit, delay or otherwise hinder Licensor's desired use of
the AOL Marks in the Territory on goods or services unassociated with Licensee's
Interactive Services and related merchandise, except to the extent Licensor
would be in breach of its obligations under Section 5 of this Agreement and
Section 2.9 of this Agreement with respect to certain AOL-branded services.
4.6 Trademark Prosecution. Licensor has, as of the Effective Date,
---------------------
registered the Core AOL Marks set forth on Attachment D in the Countries set
------------
forth on Attachment D. Licensee shall inform Licensor of any proposed
------------
additional AOL Xxxx Licensee desires to use in connection with the Licensee
Interactive Services. Licensor shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its
approval of the use of any such proposed AOL Xxxx. If Licensor approves such
proposed AOL Xxxx (a "New AOL Xxxx"), Licensor may in its reasonable discretion
seek to obtain a trade or service xxxx registration for such New AOL Xxxx in
applicable jurisdiction(s) within the Territory. Licensee shall reimburse
Licensor for all costs, fees, and expenses incurred in seeking to obtain New AOL
Xxxx registrations in the Territory. Licensor shall take steps, in its
reasonable discretion, to protect the AOL Marks within the Territory, including
filing trademark applications. With respect to a Licensee Xxxx, Licensee may,
in its reasonable discretion, seek to obtain at its own expense trade or service
xxxx registration for such xxxx, as the case may be, within the relevant
country(s) of the Territory.
4.7 Domain Names. Subject to this Section 4, Licensee shall have the
------------
right and license to use, on a royalty-free basis, to the extent available under
applicable law and national domain registries, applicable AOL Marks as universal
resource locators, domain names, sub-domain names, newsgroup names and other
similar or related identifiers for Internet uses ("AOL Domain Names"). AOL
Domain names within the Territory registered by AOL as of the Effective Date are
identified in Attachment E and Licensee hereby acknowledges that AOL has not
------------
otherwise registered any other domain names in the Territory. Licensee shall
pay any filing, maintenance, administrative or other fees associated with
establishing and preserving the AOL Domain Names in the Territory. Licensee
shall inform Licensor of proposed new AOL Domain Names Licensee desires to use
in connection with the Licensee Interactive Services. Licensor shall not
unreasonably withhold or delay its approval of the proposed use of any such
proposed AOL Domain Names. If Licensor approves such proposed AOL Domain Name
(a "New AOL Domain Name"), Licensor shall seek to obtain a domain name
registration, subject to availability thereof under the applicable domain name
registry. Licensee shall reimburse Licensor for all costs, fees, and expenses
incurred in seeking to obtain New AOL Domain Name
-12-
registrations and any applicable fees or other expenses required to maintain
such additional domain names. Licensor shall thereafter take steps, in its
reasonable discretion, to protect registered AOL Domain Names in the Territory.
Licensee shall, at its own expense, take such steps as Licensor and its
Affiliates may reasonably request to assist Licensor in protecting Licensor's,
AOL's and Licensee's rights in AOL Domain Names. Licensee acknowledges and
agrees that (i) the AOL Domain Names and New AOL Domain Names are and shall
remain the sole property of Licensor; (ii) nothing in this Agreement shall
convey to Licensee any right of ownership in the AOL Domain Names; and (iii) all
use of AOL Domain Names and New AOL Domain Names by Licensee shall inure to the
benefit of Licensor.
4.8 Notification of Unauthorized Use. Each party agrees to notify the
--------------------------------
other party of any unauthorized use of the AOL Marks, Licensed Licensee Marks,
AOL Domain Names, or New AOL Domain Names by third parties promptly as such use
shall come to such notifying party's attention. Licensor shall initially have
the sole right and discretion to bring proceedings alleging infringement of AOL
Marks, AOL Domain Names, or New AOL Domain Names or unfair competition against
such third parties ("Offensive Proceedings") and to defend proceedings brought
or threatened against Licensor or Licensee based on use of AOL Marks, AOL Domain
Names, or New AOL Domain Names. Licensee shall take such steps as Licensor and
its Affiliates may reasonably request, at Licensee's expense, to assist Licensor
in protecting Licensor's, AOL's and Licensee's rights in the AOL Marks, AOL
Domain Names, or New AOL Domain Names. In the event that Licensor notifies
Licensee in writing that Licensor elects not to prosecute an Offensive
Proceeding, Licensee may request in writing that Licensor bring such proceeding,
and upon such request, Licensor shall bring such proceeding, with all reasonable
expenses incurred in connection therewith to be borne by Licensee.

---------
(a) Licensor shall, at its expense, defend any action, suit or
proceeding brought (other than by any shareholder of Licensee or any Affiliate
thereof) against Licensee or any Affiliate thereof, to the extent it results
from breach of a covenant or a representation or warranty by Licensor under
Section 6.1 above and Licensor shall indemnify and hold Licensee and any
Affiliate thereof harmless from and against all damages, costs, expenses
(including, but not limited to, attorneys' fees), obligations or liabilities
payable by Licensee to any third party (other than any shareholder of Licensee
or any Affiliate thereof) directly relating to or resulting from any such
action, suit or proceeding, provided, however, that Licensor shall not settle
any claim without Licensee's prior written approval, not to be unreasonably
withheld, delayed or conditioned.
(b) Licensee shall, at its expense, defend any action, suit or
proceeding brought by any party against Licensor or any Affiliate thereof, to
the extent it results from breach of a covenant or a representation or warranty
by Licensee under Section 6.2 above and Licensee shall indemnify and hold
Licensor or any Affiliate thereof harmless from and against all damages, costs,
expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys' fees), obligations or

conditioned.
(c)(i) If, and to the extent that, the Company, Licensee, any
Operating Entity, any stockholder of the Company, any equity holder of
Licensee or any Operating Entity, or any other Person brings any Action
against AOL or Licensor (or any of their officers, directors, agents,
shareholders, members, partners, Affiliates or Subsidiaries) seeking any
Damages or injunctive or other equitable relief based on, arising out of or
relating to any breach or alleged breach of any fiduciary or other duty
based on any action or inaction which is permitted by the provisions of
Article THIRD of the Certificate of Incorporation, Licensee shall indemnify
and hold such Persons harmless from and against all Damages arising out of
or in connection with any such Action. The right to indemnification
conferred herein shall include the right to be paid by Licensee an
Advancement of Expenses. Neither AOL, Licensor nor any other Person
entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.4(c) shall be required, as
a condition to any such Advancement of Expenses, be required to deliver to
Licensee any Undertaking. The rights to indemnification and to the
Advancement of Expenses conferred herein shall

inure to the benefit of the indemnitee's successors, assigns, heirs,
executors and administrators.
(ii) If a claim for indemnification under this Section 6.4(c) is not
paid in full by Licensee within sixty (60) days after a written claim has
been received by Licensee, except in the case of a claim for an Advancement
of Expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be twenty (20) days,
the indemnitee may at any time thereafter bring suit against Licensee to
recover the unpaid amount of the claim. If successful in whole or in part
in any such suit, or in a suit brought by Licensee to recover an
Advancement of Expenses, the indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid also
the expense of prosecuting or defending such suit. In any suit brought by
the indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or to an Advancement
of Expenses hereunder, or brought by Licensee to recover an Advancement of
Expenses pursuant, the burden of proving that the indemnitee is not
entitled to be indemnified, or to such Advancement of Expenses, under this
Section 6.4(c) or otherwise, shall be on Licensee .
(iii) The rights to indemnification and to the Advancement of
Expenses conferred in this Section 6.4(c) shall not be exclusive of any

vote of stockholders or other equity holders, disinterested directors or
otherwise.

------------
thereof becomes or, in Licensor's opinion, is likely to become the subject of an
injunction preventing its use as contemplated herein, Licensor shall, at its
expense and reasonable discretion, use commercially reasonable efforts to
procure for Licensee the right to continue using the Licensed Product or
Documentation, as the case may be; replace or modify the Licensed Product or
Documentation, as the case may be, so that it becomes non-infringing; or delete,
if technically feasible, as the case may be, the relevant Object Code or text
from the Licensed Product or Documentation, respectively, so that it becomes
non-infringing; provided that any such replacement or modified Licensed Product
or Documentation shall provide functionality and performance that is
substantially similar to the applicable Licensed Product or Documentation.
6.6 Indemnification Procedures. The indemnified party shall (a) give the
--------------------------
indemnifying party prompt written notice of such action, or proceeding (and in
no event more than seven (7) Business Days following the indemnified party's
receipt of notice of such suit, action or proceeding), (b) at the indemnifying
party's request and expense, permit the indemnifying party, through its counsel,
to defend such claim or suit, and (c) give the indemnifying party reasonable
information, assistance and authority to do so. To the extent the indemnified
party fails to provide notice as required above and to the extent such failure
hinders the indemnifying party's ability to perform its indemnification
obligations set forth in Section 6.3, then such indemnification obligations
shall be waived to an extent commensurate with the hindrance caused by such
delay in notification or failure to notify. The indemnifying party shall have
exclusive control of the defense if it elects to defend any such suit, including
appeals, negotiations and the right to effect a settlement or compromise thereof
(provided that, as a condition to any such settlement or compromise, the
indemnified party shall not incur any
-17-
liability or obligation). The indemnified party may be represented by counsel at
its own expense in any action being defended by the indemnifying party.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the foregoing, in the
event Licensor is the indemnified party with respect to any intellectual
property claim, Licensor shall have the right to exclusive control of the
defense, at Licensee's reasonable cost and expense, if it elects to defend any
such suit, including appeals, negotiations and the right to effect a settlement
or compromise thereof; provided, however that Licensee shall have the right to
participate in settlement negotiations, if any, and shall have the right to
approve such settlement, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned. Licensee shall reimburse Licensor for all of Licensor's reasonable
costs and expenses in connection with such defense and for any damages or other
liability in connection therewith, including any settlement obligations.

any Licensed Product or Documentation.

-----------------------
EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR
SPECIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, LOST SAVINGS OR ANY OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL OR
SIMILAR DAMAGES, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, EVEN IF THAT PARTY HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, RESULTING FROM BREACH OF ITS
OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.
7. CONFIDENTIALITY.
7.1 Restriction on Use. Each Party shall treat as confidential all
------------------
Confidential Information of the other party and shall use such Confidential
Information only to the extent necessary to allow Licensee to provide Licensee
Interactive Services and develop Content as contemplated under this Agreement.
Neither party shall disclose any such Confidential Information to any third
party except as may be reasonably required in connection with the use of
Licensed Products or Documentation pursuant to this Agreement, and in all cases
subject to the recipient entering into a written confidentiality agreement
imposing obligations upon such third party that are at least as protective of
such information as those set forth in this Agreement. Without limiting the
foregoing, each party agrees to use at least the same degree of care with
respect to the Confidential Information of the other which it uses to protect
its own similarly valuable Confidential Information from unauthorized disclosure
or use, but no less than a reasonable standard of care.
-18-
7.2 Termination of Obligations. The parties' obligations under this
--------------------------
Section 7 shall survive any termination of this Agreement; provided, however,
such obligations shall terminate five (5) years after such termination with
respect to Confidential Information regarding solely financial or marketing
matters and (b) ten (10) years after such termination with respect to all other
Confidential Information (except for Source Code for which such obligations
shall continue so long as such Source Code is protected by the laws applicable

-----------------------
effective upon notice to Licensee if (1)(A)(i) Licensee materially breaches
Licensee's obligations pursuant to Sections 2.1, 2.3, 2.6, 4, 9.2 or 9.3 or
Licensee's obligations to make payments to Licensor under this Agreement, (ii) a
Senior Executive Officer of Licensee intentionally breaches, or knowingly
permits an intentional breach of, Licensee's obligations pursuant to Section 7
or, with respect only to the initial press release regarding this Agreement,
Section 9.13, and such breach results in substantial adverse consequences to
Licensor, and (B) Licensee fails to cure such breach within ninety (90) calendar
days after receipt by Licensee of written notice of such breach or (2) Licensee
breaches in any material respect any of its obligations set forth in Section

---------------------
this Section 8, Sections 1 (and any other defined term herein), 2.5, 2.6, 3.5,
3.6, 4.3, 6.4, 6.6, 6.7, 6.8, 6.9, 7, this Section 8.3 and Sections 8.4 and 9

termination, Licensee shall (a) return to Licensor or destroy all copies of the
Licensed Products, Documentation, and all components thereof, together with all
other proprietary information of Licensor in Licensee's possession or control,
including any Confidential Information, and (b) make no further use of the
Licensed Products, Documentation, components thereof, or any such proprietary
information. In the event Licensee elects to destroy all copies of the items
set forth in clause (a) above, a duly authorized officer of Licensee shall, upon
completion by Licensee of such destruction, certify in writing to Licensor that
Licensee has in fact performed such destruction. In no event shall either party
be entitled to exercise any right of offset or similar remedy against any
amounts payable to the other party under this Agreement, whether in connection
with any termination of this Agreement or otherwise
8.4 Equitable Relief and Damages. The parties acknowledge and agree that,
----------------------------
in the event of a threatened or actual breach of Section 7 or 9.13 or an actual
breach of any other provision of this Agreement and failure to cure any such
breach within thirty (30) calendar days following notice thereof from the other
party, damages alone will be an inadequate remedy, that such breach will cause
the other party great, immediate and irreparable injury and damage, and that,
accordingly, each party shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable
relief, including mandatory injunctive relief and specific performance, in
addition to, and not in lieu of, any remedies it may have at law or under this
Agreement. The parties further acknowledge and agree that each party shall be
entitled to all damages as a remedy for any such breach (except a threatened
breach of Section 7 or 9.13), to the extent provided under Section 6.9 above.

9. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
9.1 Relationship of Parties. The parties are and shall be independent
-----------------------
contractors. Neither party, its employees, consultants, third party contractors
or agents shall be deemed under this Agreement to be the agents, employees,
partners or joint venturers of the other, nor does either party have any
authority to enter into any obligation on behalf of the other. Neither party
shall make any express or implied representations to any third party to the
contrary.
9.2 No Use of Name or Trademarks. Subject to Section 9.13 below and, in
----------------------------
the absence of the other party's prior written consent or a separate agreement
between the parties hereto to the contrary, neither party shall be entitled to
use the name of the other in promotional, advertising and other similar
materials, it being understood that this shall not restrict either party from
referring to the relationship between the parties to the extent required by law
in connection with financial disclosure or similar requirements. Except as set
forth in Section 4 above, neither Party will, without the other's prior written
approval of such proposed use, use the other's trademarks, service marks, trade
names, logos or other commercial or product designations, for any purpose
(including, but not limited to, use in connection with any products, promotions
or advertisements).
9.3 Assignment. The rights and obligations of the parties hereto will
----------
bind and inure to the benefit of their respective permitted successors; provided
that neither party may assign its rights or obligations, either in whole or in
part, without the prior written consent of the other, except to Permitted
Sublicensees as provided in Section 2.8 and to Wholly-Owned Affiliates of a
party, but only for so long as such entities remain Wholly-Owned Affiliates of
