. The pre-loading of a Device with Google Applications in each individual Territory shall be [***]

pursuant to the applicable Launch Addendum(s), which shall be substantially similar to the example Launch Addendum set forth in Attachment 1 to Exhibit A. Additionally, where Google specifies a specific version of a Google Application to be distributed in a certain Territory on the Launch Addendum, Company shall distribute only such version within such Territory (as such versions are changed from time to time at Google’s sole discretion upon notice to Motorola and Motorola shall have reasonable time to adjust to such changes, as set forth in Section 2.3.1. It is the express intent of the parties that Company be enabled to include Google Applications on its Devices and that the parties will work in good faith and in a timely manner with each other with respect to approving the implementation of Google Application on Company’s Devices.

not need to obtain Google’s consent for such particular Motorola documentation or screen shot for future uses, and Motorola may modify such approved documentation or screen shot for purposes of internationalization or reformatting so long as any such modifications adhere to the Branding Guidelines (as such Branding Guidelines are changed from time to time at Google’s sole discretion upon notice to Motorola and Motorola shall have reasonable time to adjust to such changes); provided, however, that Motorola shall make any such modified documentation or screen shot available to Google for review upon Google’s written request.

Each Contractor may delegate the exercise and/or performance of all or a portion of its rights and/or obligations set forth in this Agreement to subcontractors, provided that such subcontractors are each bound in writing to an agreement with the Delegating Party or the applicable Contractor where each such agreement is at least as protective of the Non-Delegating Party as this Agreement (however, the parties acknowledge and agree that, except with regard to the Non-Delegating Party’s Confidential Information, such agreement may not be exactly as protective with regard to each individual aspect of this Agreement). For clarity, it is understood that any Delegating Party or any Contractor, as applicable, need not mention the Non-Delegating Party by name in any such written agreement. The Delegating Party shall indemnify the Non-Delegating Party from and against any loss, damage, liability, fees, cost and/or expense incurred by the Non-Delegating Party arising out of any delegation permitted under this Section.

2.3 Delivery.

2.3.1 Applications. Upon general availability to any third party, Google shall deliver the Google Applications to Company. For the sake of clarity, the parties acknowledge and agree that Google has no obligation to develop or deliver any Google Application, and any such development is at Google’s sole discretion. If Company receives an updated version of a Google Application more than 30 days before submitting a Device to a Telecom Operator for testing, Company shall commence distribution of updated versions of Google Applications to such Telecom Operator within 30 days of receipt from Google. If Company receives an updated version of a Google Application, less than 30 days before submitting a Device to a Telecom Operator for testing but prior to commercial distribution of such Device, Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to distribute the updated version of a Google Application to the Telecom Operator. If Company cannot, after using commercially reasonable efforts, distribute the updated version of a Google Application to the Telecom Operator, then Company will cooperate with Google pursuant to Section 4.5 to update the Google Application by over-the air updates.

2.4 Form of Distribution Offering. (a) During the Term, upon Google’s approval as described in Section 4.3, Company shall make the Google Applications available to End Users on the Device as described in this Agreement. The form of any such offering shall be as set forth in this Agreement, and shall adhere to the Google Mobile Branding Guidelines. Without limiting the foregoing sentence, except for End Users as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Company shall not offer or distribute the Google Applications to any third party (except as set forth in Section 2.1). (b) Company (or any third party) shall not: (i) serve or otherwise place any advertisements during the launch process of the Google Applications; (ii) offer, download or install, or allow any third party to offer, download or install, any additional products during the launch process of the Google Applications; or (iii) preload, install or launch any Google Application (or otherwise act or fail to act) such that an End User is denied the opportunity to review and accept (or reject) the relevant Google terms of service.

(Revd. 3/09)

2.5 Accurate Reproduction. Company agrees that in connection with its exercise of the right granted in Section 2.1 of this Agreement, it will accurately reproduce the Google Applications (including any legal notices and marks contained therein) and will not insert into the Google Applications any viruses, worms, date bombs, time bombs, or other code that is specifically designed to cause the Google Applications to cease operating, or to damage, interrupt, allow access to or interfere with any Google Applications or End User data.

2.6 Open Devices. The parties will create an open environment for the Devices by making all Android applications and Android Application Programming Interfaces available and open on the Devices and will take no action to limit or restrict the Android platform.

2.7 Authorization to Distribute Google Applications on the Devices Based Upon Android Compatibility Testing The license to distribute Google Applications in Section 2.1 is contingent upon Motorola certifying that the Device passes the Android Compatibility Test Suite and conforms to the Android Compatibility Definition. The Android Compatibility Test Suite (the “CTS”) as defined below may change from time to time at Google’s sole discretion, however the parties agree that once a Device is approved for Launch pursuant to this Agreement (including, among other things, by virtue of having passed the then-current version of the CTS applicable to the version of Android loaded on the Device) then such Google-approved Device shall not be required to pass future versions of the CTS in order to continue to be distributed in the Google-approved Territories: a) Any additional tests or changes to CTS shall not apply to any Device(s) that passed the CTS any time prior to the implementation of any changes to the CTS have already received terminal acceptance by both parties. The final software build of Devices must pass the Compatibility Test Suite prior to Launch. For purposes of this Agreement, the CTS shall only apply to the functionality of Android and related APIs, and while CTS may require a Device to include certain functionality in order to pass (such as the ability to send and receive email) a Device will be able to pass CTS without including for distribution of any specific applications, including but not limited to Google Applications (such as a particular email application).

2.8 Privacy. To the extent that the Google Application stores, tracks or transmits user-identifiable information the Parties agree to the following:

2.8.1 Consumer Privacy Rights. The parties will post their privacy rights policies in an easily consumer-findable location and note both the existence of such policies and location in their End User License Agreement or another mutually agreed to location.

2.9 Legacy Sunset. To the extent that Google wishes to discontinue or make inoperable any Google Application previously provided hereunder, (“Discontinued Software”), Google shall provide Motorola with written notice of such Discontinued Software and shall support such Discontinued Software for [***] from the date such notification was received by Motorola; provided that Google makes such support for Discontinued Software generally available to third parties and further provided, however, that Google may support such Discontinued Software for a shorter period if the decision to discontinue or make inoperable such Software arises from applicable law or other factors outside of Google’s control. The parties will discuss in good faith the timing for the discontinuation of any distribution of Google Applications that are licensed pursuant to this Agreement.

2.10 Other Agreements. This Agreement will supersede any agreements between the parties or any of their respective affiliates ((including, but not limited to (a) the Master Framework Agreement, dated March 13, 2007, by and between Motorola, Inc. and Google Inc. and (b) the Directed Traffic Distribution Agreement, dated December 28, 2005 (“Directed Traffic Agreement”), by and between Motorola, Inc. and Google Inc.) regarding the Google Applications provided by Google that are distributed on Devices that run on Android, but will have no affect on any other agreements between the parties regarding other devices or other Google services or applications. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and when the Directed Traffic Agreement is amended by the parties (or the parties agree to a new agreement) [***]

shall apply to the Devices distributed with the Google Applications licensed hereunder contingent upon the parties’ compliance with the terms of the Directed Traffic Agreement or other agreement as applicable.

3. Device Distribution. Company agrees that it will be solely responsible for the distribution of the Devices and managing its inventory.

4. General.

4.1 Payments.

4.1.1 Except as set forth in Section 2.10 (Other Agreements), Company and Google shall each retain any and all revenue generated from provision of their respective products or services. For the sake of clarity, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither party shall be required to account to the other or otherwise make any payment to the other regarding the Google Applications, Google products or services, the Devices or any revenue generated therefrom.

4.2 Reports. The parties shall provide the reports detailed in Exhibit B.

4.3 Google Approval and Launch. The distribution of each of (and/or any total number of) the Google Applications shall be subject to Google’s prior written approval (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to ensure adherence to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including but not limited to the Google Mobile Branding Guidelines (as such Google Mobile Branding Guidelines are changed from time to time at Google’s sole discretion and Motorola shall have reasonable time to adjust to such changes). [***]

Upon receipt of each such Google approval, Company shall promptly begin distribution and implementation in accordance with this Agreement (each, “Launch” or “Launch Date”). Company will provide written confirmation to Google of Launch promptly following the launch of any Device in each Territory. For the avoidance of doubt, each new Territory, each new Device, and each new Telecom Operator in each Territory needs to be approved by Google prior to Launch.

4.4 Implementation Requirements. The parties shall provide the materials and information listed in Exhibit C hereto. Additionally, Company shall provide any and all other information, equipment and/or assistance necessary to allow Google to deliver the Google Applications and make the Google Applications (including over-the-air updates thereto) available on the Service and the Devices.

4.5 Over-the-Air Updates.

4.5.1 Google may auto-update Google Applications over-the-air at Google’s reasonable discretion in accordance with the terms set forth in this Section 4.5.1. The parties shall work together in good faith to deliver the most up to date Google Applications on the Devices. The parties acknowledge that it is unreasonable to make any update to the Google Applications that causes a material malfunction in the Google Applications, the Devices, or the Telecom Operator’s network. Company shall not prevent such over-the-air auto-updates. Google acknowledges that in the event Company sells Devices to a Telecom Operator, such Telecom Operator may impose restrictions regarding over-the-air updates of applications, including Google Applications. Company shall, in good faith, use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that a Telecom Operator will not preclude over-the-air updates to Google Applications.

4.6 Site Pages. Company shall not redirect an End User away from, block access to, frame, or modify or change the look or feel of any web page or web site accessed via a Google Application, or place anything on or near any web site page that in any way implies that Google is responsible for the contents of such page.

4.7 Data Collection and Reporting. Each party’s applicable privacy and security policies shall apply with respect to the user information collected by it. The parties will provide each other reasonable aggregate information about usage of the Devices during the Term, in order to help each party improve End User’s experience with the Device, consistent with each party’s privacy policies. Such information will not involve any personal information.

4.8 Mobile Service Operator Customer Restrictions. The parties acknowledge and agree that the placement and distribution obligations contained in Section 2.1 are subject to restrictions placed upon Company by its direct mobile service operator customers. However, pursuant to Section 2.1, if a Google Application is on a Device, then any such placement and distribution, including the appearance of Google Applications, shall be subject to Google’s prior written approval as set forth herein, and shall adhere to the terms and conditions of this Agreement including but not limited to the Google Mobile Branding Guidelines.

4.9 No Connectivity Notice. Where an End User launches a Device’s web browser or launches a Google Application and there is no data connectivity available, Company will ensure that such End User is presented with a message indicating lack of data connectivity.

Neither party shall be liable to the other for any damages resulting solely from termination of this Agreement as permitted for under this Agreement.

5.4 Sell-Off Right.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Sell-Off Right shall not apply in the event that either (a) Company does not provide the Sell-Off Right Notice as set forth above in this Section 5.4, or (b) this Agreement (or any right granted hereunder) is suspended or terminated by Google pursuant to Section 5.2 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Company shall not be entitled to receive any payments related to revenue share from Google upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, regardless of whether or not it chooses to utilize any Sell-Off Right.

Confidential Information does not include information that the recipient already knew, that

Page 6 of 16

Confidential

(Revd. 3/09)

becomes public through no fault of the recipient, that was independently developed by the recipient, or that was rightfully given to the recipient by another party. (b) Confidentiality Obligations. The recipient will not disclose the Confidential Information, except to affiliates, employees, and agents who need to know it and who have agreed in writing to keep it confidential. The recipient, its affiliates, employees, and agents may use Confidential Information only to exercise rights and fulfill obligations under this agreement, while using reasonable care to protect it. The recipient may also disclose Confidential Information when required by law after giving reasonable notice to discloser.

6.2 Publicity. Each party shall make reasonable efforts to provide, for review and consent, all PR materials that mention or recite the other party, its trademarks, its products or services, or this Agreement, to such other party at least four business (4) days prior to publication or release of such PR Materials. Neither party will publish or release any PR materials or make any public announcement relating to this Agreement without the other party’s prior written consent; except to the extent such information is required to be disclosed under operation of law, by a court order, or by a governmental agency with jurisdiction, provided that the announcing party notifies the other party promptly in writing and cooperates with the other party, at the other party’s request and expense, to contest or limit the scope of such required disclosure.

7. Trademarks.

7.1 General. Each party shall own all right, title and interest, including without limitation all Intellectual Property Rights, relating to its Trademarks. Some, but not all examples of Google Trademarks are located at: xxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/xxxxxxxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxx.xxxx (or such other URLs Google may provide from time to time). Except to the limited extent expressly provided in this Agreement, neither party grants, and the other party shall not acquire, any right, title or interest (including, without limitation, any implied license) in or to any Trademarks of the first party; and all rights not expressly granted herein are deemed withheld. All use by Google of Company Trademarks (including any goodwill associated therewith) shall inure to the benefit of Company and all use by Company of Google Trademarks (including any goodwill associated therewith) shall inure to the benefit of Google. No party shall challenge or assist others to challenge the Trademarks of the other party (except to protect such party’s rights with respect to its own Trademarks) or the registration thereof by the other party, nor shall either party attempt to register any Trademarks or domain names that are confusingly similar to those of the other party.

7.2 License to Google Trademarks. Subject to Google’s written approval prior to each use of a Google Trademark and to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Google grants to Company a limited, nonexclusive and nonsublicensable license during the Term to display those Google Trademarks expressly authorized for use in this Agreement, solely for the purposes expressly set forth herein as well as for advertising and marketing the Google Applications on Devices, subject to any restrictions listed in each Launch Addendum. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if Motorola materially breaches the Trademark license granted herein Google may revoke the license granted herein to use Google’s Trademarks upon providing Company with written notice thereof and a reasonable period of time to cease such usage as set forth in the Sell-Off Provisions provided herein. Furthermore, in its use of any Google Trademarks, Company agrees to adhere to the Google Mobile Branding Guidelines (as such Google Mobile Branding Guidelines are changed from time to time at Google’s sole discretion and Motorola shall have reasonable time to adjust to such changes) . If Google expressly approves a use of a Google Trademark that does not comply with the Google Mobile Branding Guidelines, then Company will not be in breach of this Section 7.2.

7.2.1 Prior to any distribution of Google Applications, the appearance and Implementation (as defined below) of such Google Applications shall be subject to Google’s prior written approval (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Such appearance and Implementation shall adhere to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including but not limited to the Google Brand Guidelines. For purposes of this Agreement, an “Implementation” shall mean the combination of the screen size, resolution, orientation, type of operating system and operating system version. For clarity and avoidance of doubt, once a particular appearance and Implementation of Google Applications has been approved for a specific model of a Device, Motorola shall be permitted, without further approval from Google (except for approval of language translations with respect to the appearance of the Google Applications), to use the same appearance and substantially similar Implementation for other models of Devices that have Implementations substantially similar to the specific model of Device for which Google has granted approval with respect to appearance and Implementation. If either party discovers material problems with the appearance or Implementation of the Google Applications, the parties agree to cooperate in good faith and to use commercially reasonable efforts to remedy such material problems as soon as practicable

7.2.2 Company shall not, and shall not allow any third party to produce any consumer packaging or materials for the Device that identifies or suggests that Google is the manufacturer of the Device. In this regard, Company shall ensure that any Device packaging or user guide produced by the Company identifies Company as the manufacturer of the Device and provides contact details in the applicable Territories in which the Device is distributed.
