Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to
award or a corporation's board of directors to grant indemnification to
directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit indemnification
under limited circumstances for liabilities, including reimbursement for
expenses incurred, arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"). Article VI, Section 6.1 of our bylaws provides for mandatory
indemnification of our directors, officers and employees to the maximum extent
permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Our Sixth Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that our officers and directors
shall not be liable for monetary damages for breach of the officers' or
directors' fiduciary duty as officers or directors to our stockholders and us.
This provision in the Sixth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
does not eliminate the officers' or directors' fiduciary duty, and, in
appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies like injunctive or other forms of
non-monetary relief will remain available under Delaware law. In addition, each
officer or director will continue to be subject to liability for breach of the
officer's or director's duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders for acts or
omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct, for knowing
violations of law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the
officer or director, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock
repurchases or redemptions that are unlawful under Delaware law. The provision
also does not affect an officer's or director's responsibilities under any
other law, like the federal securities laws or state or federal environmental
laws. We have entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and
directors, a form of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by
reference. The indemnification agreements provide our officers and directors
with
II-1
<PAGE>
further indemnification to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law. Reference is made to Section 7 of the underwriting agreement
contained in Exhibit 1.1 to this registration statement, indemnifying officers
and directors of ours against limited liabilities.

(b) Financial Statement Schedules
All schedules have been omitted because the information required to be

statements or related notes.
Item 17. Undertakings
We undertake to provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the
underwriting agreement, certificates in the denominations and registered in the
names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each
purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant under the Delaware General Corporation Law, our Sixth Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation or our Amended and Restated Bylaws, the
underwriting agreement, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion
of the Securities and Exchange Commission this indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against these
liabilities, other than the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer, or controlling person of ours in the successful defense of
any action, suit or proceeding, is asserted by a director, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered in this
offering, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction
the question of whether this indemnification by us is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of this issue.
We undertake that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the
information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
prospectus filed by us under Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the
Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of
the time it was declared effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered,
and the offering of these securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering.

Technology. If NatWest requests and InterTrust agrees to commit resources beyond
the level required hereunder, such efforts will be subject to reasonable
reimbursement by NatWest to InterTrust as agreed by the Parties and as
consistent with reasonable industry practice. InterTrust's sole obligation with
respect to any Material Defect shall be InterTrust's correction or mitigation of
such Material Defect pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.2((b)),NatWest's
sole and exclusive remedies with respect to any Material Defect shall be: (i)
InterTrust's correction or mitigation of such Material Defect pursuant to the
terms of this Section 2.2((b)); (ii) NatWest's suspension of certain payments
during the pendency of Critical Material Defects pursuant to Section 5.1((f));
and/or (iii) NatWest's termination of this Agreement as provided in Section

CONFIDENTIAL
appropriate priority level consistent with the following: (1) a Material Defect
that renders the NatWest Products commercially unusable, resulting in total
business disruption of NatWest's Clearinghouse Function services ("Critical
--------
Material Defects"); (2) a Material Defect that substantially impairs the
- ----------------
commercial use of NatWest Products ("Priority Material Defects"); and (3) a
-------------------------
Material Defect that has lesser impact on the commercial use of NatWest
Products, and/or a Material Defect not described in the immediately preceding
subparagraphs (1) and/or (2) ("Other Material Defects"). In order for InterTrust
----------------------
and NatWest to make such classification and/or correct or mitigate a Material
Defect, NatWest shall describe the alleged defect in reasonable detail, in
writing to the extent possible (and orally to the extent this may expedite the
correction of any Critical Material Defect); provided that all descriptions must
-------- ----
be in sufficient detail to allow InterTrust to reliably reproduce such defect.
(iii) Critical Material Defects. In the event NatWest brings a
-------------------------
Critical Material Defect to InterTrust's attention in accordance with Section
2.2((b))((i)) and ((ii)) hereof, and subsequent to written notification by
NatWest to InterTrust that NatWest is performing live commercial transactions
involving the performance of Clearinghouse Functions on a meaningful commercial
scale, InterTrust will make good faith efforts to communicate an initial
response concerning such Critical Material Defect within [*] hours. InterTrust
shall devote its support resources in a priority manner to work on providing an
urgent bug fix or workaround patch, process and/or procedure to temporarily
correct or mitigate such defect as soon as practicable, and in a commercially
reasonable manner, and, thereafter, use good faith efforts to work toward a
longer term solution within a commercially reasonable and practical time frame
as may be reasonably projected at such time by InterTrust after consultation
with NatWest, all of the foregoing taking into account the nature, severity and
complexity of such defect, the type and availability of engineering resources
required, and the magnitude of NatWest's commercial, revenue generating use of
InterTrust Technology. In the event a Critical Material Defect causes a total
disruption in one or more of NatWest's substantial live services involving the
performance of Clearinghouse Functions on a material scale as compared to
NatWest's overall services supported by InterTrust Technology, and InterTrust
has failed within [*] days of receipt of notice from NatWest in accordance with
the provisions of Sections 2.2((b))((i)) and 2.2((b))((ii)) to provide an urgent
bug fix or workaround patch, process and/or procedure to temporarily correct or
mitigate such defect to restore operation of such services, NatWest may
terminate this Agreement upon providing InterTrust with [*] days prior written
notice thereof.
(iv) Priority Material Defects. In the event NatWest brings a
-------------------------
Priority Material Defect to InterTrust's attention in accordance with Sections
2.2((b)))((i)) and 2.2((b))((ii)), and subsequent to written notification by
NatWest to InterTrust that NatWest is performing live commercial transactions
involving the performance of Clearinghouse Functions on meaningful commercial
scale, InterTrust will make good faith efforts to communicate an initial
response concerning such Priority Material Defect within [*] hours. InterTrust
shall reasonably devote its support resources to work on providing a bug fix or
workaround patch, process and/or procedure to correct or mitigate such defect
within a practical and commercially reasonable time frame as may be reasonably
projected at such time by InterTrust after consultation with NatWest, taking
into account the nature, severity and complexity of such defect, the type and
availability of engineering resources required, and the magnitude of NatWest's
commercial, revenue generating use of InterTrust Technology.
(v) Other Material Defects. In the event NatWest brings an Other
----------------------
Material Defect to InterTrust's attention in accordance with Sections 2.2((b))
((i)) and 2.2((b))((ii)), InterTrust will make good faith efforts to: (1)
communicate a response promptly; and (2) thereafter correct or mitigate such
defect in manner consistent with Section ((b))((i)) hereof.
(c) Status Meetings. To assist the Parties in sharing information, and
---------------
coordinating and evaluating their efforts relating to InterTrust Technology and
their mutual technical and business objectives, following the Effective Date the
Parties shall meet from time to time to discuss, among other things: (i)
InterTrust's development progress; (ii) implementation of such technology by
NatWest; and (iii) feedback concerning Assistance provided to NatWest and
product development and marketing progress by NatWest (the "Status

Meetings"). Such Status Meetings shall take place not less frequently than once
- --------
a quarter during the first twelve months following the Effective Date.
(d) Dedicated Personnel. InterTrust and NatWest will each appoint a
-------------------
relationship manager, to coordinate its activities pursuant to this Section 0,
and a technical project manager, to coordinate and facilitate the Assistance set
forth in Sections 2.2((a)) and 2.2((b)). InterTrust will reasonably and
consistently maintain such dedicated personnel. InterTrust will also promptly
respond to any NatWest concerns regarding such personnel. InterTrust may utilize
InterTrust resources located in the United Kingdom and/or Europe in part in
providing the Assistance and other services set forth in this Section 2.2.
2.3 Additional Assistance; Further Standard Support Packages. During the
--------------------------------------------------------
Support Period, additional Assistance may be made available by InterTrust to
NatWest beyond the [*] hours per annum allocated under Section 2.2((a))
("Additional Assistance"). To the extent NatWest requests, and InterTrust
decides to provide such Additional Assistance, NatWest shall pay to InterTrust
---------------------
fees that are no higher than the lowest fees charged by InterTrust to any other
customers for such Additional Assistance under like circumstances and at a cost
no greater than reasonably consistent with applicable U.S. software industry
practices. Following the Support Period (or earlier if agreed by NatWest and
InterTrust), NatWest may select one or more Standard Support Packages that
InterTrust may offer, except that to the extent NatWest is using InterTrust
Technology and InterTrust requires its customers (who have license rights and
obligations comparable to NatWest) to maintain at least a certain minimum level
of support with respect to its licensed activities, NatWest shall select and
maintain at least such minimum level of support provided by a Standard Support
Package, which minimum level will have associated support fees not materially in
excess of the Support Fee (as adjusted upward for inflation or to maintain
support fees reasonably commensurate with industry standard support fees in
comparable circumstances) and shall provide support commensurate with the level
of support provided in Section 2.2((a)) and 2.2((b)) hereof. Such support
(including correction of Material Defects) shall be provided to NatWest at a
cost no higher than the lowest fees charged by InterTrust to any other Core
Partner for substantially the same level of support under like circumstances and
no greater than reasonably consistent with U.S. software industry practices.

(except as expressly provided in Section 13.3). Any material use by NatWest of
any portion of the InterTrust Technology and/or Modified Technology outside the
scope of the licenses granted by InterTrust hereunder shall constitute a
material breach of this Agreement. If the provisions of subsections (i)(a),
(i)(b) and/or (i)(c) of this Section 3.5 are prohibited by any jurisdiction
having competent jurisdiction over this Agreement and such prohibition cannot be
waived by a Party by nature of the foregoing language, or otherwise be
reasonably avoided by a Party (such as, for example, by developing, accessing
and/or using any relevant
11
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
portions of the InterTrust Technology outside of such jurisdiction), then (1)
before engaging in any of the activities set forth in such subsections (i)(a),
(i)(b) and/or (i)(c), NatWest shall provide InterTrust with ninety (90) days
prior written notice; and (2) all information and/or technology derived from

NatWest's licenses granted under this Agreement and the other terms and
conditions hereof. Furthermore, any disassembly, decompilation or reverse
engineering undertaken in reliance upon such applicable jurisdiction' s
prohibiting law shall take place only where such disassembly, decompilation or
reverse engineering of any InterTrust software (or any part thereof) and
reproduction of the software and translation of its form are indispensable to
obtain the information necessary to achieve the interoperability of the software
with other programs, provided that: (A) these acts are performed by such Person
-------- ----
or by another Person having a right to use a copy of the software, or on their
behalf by a Person authorized under this Agreement to do so and where such acts
are not in violation of any applicable governing law; (B) the information
necessary to achieve reasonable interoperability has not previously been readily
available to the Persons referred to in subparagraph (A); and (C) these acts are
confined to the parts of the software which are necessary to achieve
interoperability (as interoperability may legally be most narrowly interpreted
under applicable law and precedent, for example to exclude from
"interoperability" any acts that compromise system security and/or undermine
basic viability or functionality of InterTrust Technology and/or NatWest
Products) and occur solely as is consistent with the licenses under this
Agreement, and where any rights to use any information derived from such acts
terminate immediately and fully upon any cessation or termination of applicable
licensed rights hereunder.
4. NATWEST SUPPORT AND ADDITIONAL COVENANTS
4.1 NatWest Support of InterTrust Technology.
----------------------------------------
(a) NatWest Use of InterTrust Technology. In accordance with the
------------------------------------
licenses granted to NatWest and the other terms hereunder, in addition to those
provisions of Section 8.1, NatWest agrees to make commercially reasonable, good
faith efforts to develop, produce, and distribute or use for commercial
purposes, in a commercially meaningful manner, a NatWest Product (as applicable)
as soon as commercially reasonable and practicable, and in any case within [*]
months following the Effective Date. Such time period shall be extended by any
period in which there is a delay in InterTrust's delivery of the Commerce 1.0
(GA Version) software beyond that set forth as of the Effective Date in Exhibit
A hereto, or there exists a Material Defect in the Commerce 1.0 software that
materially impedes NatWest's development efforts as relevant, but only for the
period from the date that NatWest shows such efforts to have been first
materially impeded to the date such defect has been reasonably corrected or
mitigated as provided in Section 2.2((b)).
(b) Compliance with InterTrust Specifications.
-----------------------------------------
(i) Products and Services. NatWest shall not commence the
---------------------
distribution, sale or other transfer of any specific NatWest Product, or perform
any service directly relating to InterTrust Technology, unless such products
and/or services are in Compliance with InterTrust Specifications. Such
InterTrust Specifications shall be established and applied in a
nondiscriminatory and consistent manner with respect to all Persons regarding
similar products, services, and/or circumstances directly related to use.
InterTrust Specifications promulgated as of the Effective Date are set forth in
Exhibit C hereto.
(ii) Compliance with New Specifications. InterTrust may, from time to
---- ----------------------------------
time, modify InterTrust Specifications to accommodate changes in InterTrust
Technology, and/or any related InterTrust product development, for such purposes
as, for example, improving architectural integrity, functional capability,
standardization, security capability, efficiency, and/or interoperability of
technology, components, products and/or services that use InterTrust Technology
(a "New Specification"). InterTrust shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
-----------------
maintain compatibility between a New Specification and the then-preceding
Specification taking into account benefits of performance, functionality,
security enhancements, growth of installed base and
- ---------- * CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED. CONFIDENTIAL PORTION HAS BEEN
FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
range of supported platforms, and potential burden resulting from version
incompatibility. Priority shall be given to considerations of security,
interoperability and platform support in evaluating when such compatibility is
not commercially appropriate. To the extent InterTrust releases a New
Specification that applies to any portion of a NatWest Product and/or service
associated with InterTrust Technology then being performed or distributed by
NatWest (as applicable), NatWest shall bring any further such products delivered
to Customers, and/or any such services (as applicable), into Compliance with
such New Specification as of the earliest to occur of: (A) the next version,
release, or production cycle of such NatWest Product and/or such associated
service (the "Next Version"), as earlier applicable, but only to the extent that
------------
NatWest receives notice of such New Specification within a reasonably sufficient
time of such Next Version to accommodate new aspects of such New Specification;
and (B) [*] months after NatWest receives a released copy of such New
Specification. InterTrust and NatWest further agree that NatWest shall, within
[*] months after receiving a released copy of such New Specification,
implement such new aspects of such New Specification for all applicable services
supporting and/or employing NatWest Products and/or any other products employing
InterTrust Technology provided to Customers and not meeting such New
Specification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, should serious technical
interoperability and/or security requirements commercially necessitate more
prompt action, NatWest and InterTrust will confer and agree upon more
aggressive, practical schedules (taking into account the severity of security
and interoperability concerns) feasible to ensure Compliance with the New
Specification for all NatWest Products and any services relating to InterTrust
Technology. Under such conditions, NatWest shall take whatever commercially
appropriate steps are reasonable and required under the circumstances to
minimize or eliminate (as may be necessary) a continuation of such
interoperability and/or security problems. InterTrust represents to NatWest that
all Core Partner Agreements existing as of the Effective Date contain
substantially similar commitments regarding compliance by such Core Partner with
InterTrust Specifications and New Specifications as provided for in this Section
0(0). If during the term of this Agreement InterTrust [*].
(c) Compliance Testing.
------------------
(i) Purpose. NatWest acknowledges that:(1) in support of InterTrust
-------
Technology, InterTrust will implement one or more certification programs
designed to ensure that licensed products and/or associated services (including
NatWest Products) use InterTrust Technology and/or Modified Technology in
Compliance with InterTrust Specifications in accordance with this Agreement (the
"Certification Program(s)"); and (2) such Certification Program(s) is (are)
------------------------
critical to maintaining the reliability, interoperability, and tamper resistance
of products and services employing InterTrust Technology and/or Modified
Technology, and in maintaining public confidence in the integrity of InterTrust
Technology and/or brands as the resource for interoperable electronic commerce.
In establishing its Certification Programs, as may be modified from time to
time, InterTrust shall use reasonable efforts to establish policies supporting
efficient certification of products and services based upon InterTrust
Technology, subject, in InterTrust's discretion, to achieving the aforementioned
goals of certification. As appropriate under the circumstances as determined by
InterTrust, such alternatives may, under certain circumstances, include: (A) the
pre-certification of certain components of InterTrust Technology for use in
NatWest Products; (B) providing test programs or suites amenable for self
certification or preliminary assessment of certifiability; and/or (C) otherwise
supporting certification policies and/or technology that enables reasonable
certification efficiency and Compliance with InterTrust Specifications. Any
Certification Program(s) established by or for InterTrust for Development
Partners shall be applied in a nondiscriminatory and consistent manner with
respect to NatWest and all other Persons providing similar products and/or
services.
(ii) Certification Requirements. Consistent with the foregoing,
--------------------------
prior to NatWest's first commercial use, or distribution, sale, or other
transfer, of a NatWest Product or associated service (as applicable) InterTrust
may require NatWest's: (1) use of a suite of test software provided by
InterTrust (or an InterTrust

delegate ("Delegate") in accordance herewith) to test and verify that
--------
NatWest Products (and/or associated services) are, at least in part, in
Compliance with InterTrust Specifications; and/or (2) submission of samples to
InterTrust (and/or an InterTrust Delegate) of such NatWest Products (in Object
Code form unless Source Code is necessary or reasonably appropriate) and
associated programs, parameter data, and other information that may be
technically material to ascertain Compliance with InterTrust Specifications
and/or to allow InterTrust (or a Delegate) to perform confidential testing
("Certification Testing"). To the extent that options (1) or (2) immediately
---------------------
above do not, or can not reasonably be anticipated to, provide sufficient
information to verify Compliance, such Certification Program(s) may also require
the provision to InterTrust and/or an InterTrust Delegate of detailed
specifications and documentation related to NatWest's use of InterTrust
Technology and Modified Technology for NatWest Products, and/or any associated
services, but only to the extent that any such specifications and documentation
are reasonably requested for certification assessment purposes and may be
material to Certification Testing. All specifications and documentation provided
by NatWest in connection with any such Certification Program(s) shall be
authenticated in writing by an authorized representative of NatWest, and no
NatWest Product and/or associated service shall be made commercially available
hereunder unless it has become a Compliant Product (defined below). Any such
Delegate performing certification in connection with NatWest Products and
associated services hereunder shall: (A) not have commercial interests
materially adverse to NatWest; and (B) have agreed to enter into a
confidentiality agreement to maintain the confidentiality of NatWest
Confidential Information.
(iii) InterTrust Certification Response. In connection with any
---------------------------------
submissions made to InterTrust or an InterTrust Delegate in connection with a
Certification Program, InterTrust (or such Delegate) will respond in a
reasonably prompt manner recognizing product delivery time frames as appropriate
following receipt of submitted products and access to, or receipt of technology
supporting, such service, unless commercially reasonable factors result in
prolonging such response. Such response shall be in the form of: (1) a written
approval that the product or service is certified (a "Compliant Product")
-----------------
(NatWest Products and services relating to InterTrust Technology not being
Compliant until such certification has been granted); or (2) if not approved, a
summary, with reasonable details as feasible, of problems and, where feasible,
suggested solutions.
(iv) Costs. To defray costs associated with the performance and
-----
administration of the Certification Program, in connection with the
certification of any product or service NatWest shall be charged a reasonable
fee not to exceed U.S. software industry norms for similar testing activities as
may be available (and, if in part or in full conducted or managed by InterTrust,
not more than the full cost incurred by InterTrust in performing, administering,
and/or managing such tests, and, to the extent conducted by a Delegate, not more
than fees charged by such Delegate to NatWest and InterTrust). An estimate of
such fee shall be provided to NatWest, as applicable, as soon as reasonably
practical upon NatWest's submission of samples or documentation for and access
to services, for testing, and such fee shall be paid by NatWest in accordance
with standard U.S. software industry practices.
(d) Documentation Format. NatWest may modify the format of Distributable
--------------------
Documentation and supplement the content thereof, but only in a manner
consistent with such Distributable Documentation, to the extent reasonably
necessary to enable NatWest's Customers to utilize NatWest Products and/or
associated services. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, NatWest may,
at its expense, translate, or have translated for it, the Distributable
Documentation into any appropriate language for purposes of delivery to its
Customers or its own internal use. InterTrust shall have the right to receive
and approve (to the extent referencing InterTrust Technology and/or capabilities
and/or functions enabled by InterTrust Technology) any non-English translations
made by or for NatWest of documentation provided by NatWest concerning NatWest
Products and any related services (including Distributable Documentation),
legends and notices required pursuant to Section 0 hereof and other required
notices, and all versions of InterTrust Technology.
4.2 Customer and Clearing Agreements.
--------------------------------
(a) Basic Requirements. NatWest shall distribute NatWest Products only to
------------------

--------
Agreement") for such NatWest Product (and/or associated service) appropriate for
- ---------
such Customer (such as whether such Customer is an end-user or intends to
further distribute NatWest Product) as provided by NatWest. Such Customer
Agreement forms shall have terms relating to InterTrust Technology and
InterTrust's rights and interests consistent with and reflective of the terms of
this Agreement. Such Customer Agreement shall also have terms consistent with,
reflective of, and based upon the items set forth in Exhibit D hereto
(collectively, the "InterTrust Terms"). Such InterTrust Terms shall be signed by
----------------
an InterTrust Designated Officer and appended to Exhibit D, and NatWest and
InterTrust may from time to time supplement or amend Exhibit D as provided in
Section 0(0).
(b) Additional Provisions. The approved InterTrust Terms shall be used
---------------------
by NatWest in all Customer Agreements unless and until: (i) NatWest requests a
modification of the InterTrust Terms and InterTrust consents in its discretion
in writing to such modification; or (ii) InterTrust reasonably requires that
NatWest alter the InterTrust Terms where such alteration is needed to prevent or
mitigate any impairment of any part of its Intellectual Property Rights, or any
impairment of the security and/or interoperability of InterTrust Technology and
applications and/or services based thereon, for example in view of court
decisions and/or applicable regulations and/or newly available information.
Such alteration to the InterTrust Terms shall be signed by an InterTrust
Designated Officer and attached to Exhibit D in accordance herewith. NatWest
agrees and acknowledges that NatWest's compliance with this Section 4.2((b))
with respect to any specific Customer shall constitute a condition precedent to
the licenses granted under Section 3 hereof with respect to any such Customer's
use of NatWest Products and/or associated services. To the extent any InterTrust
Terms are deemed, or are reasonably believed by InterTrust to have a substantial
likelihood of being deemed, unenforceable or otherwise ineffective in any
relevant jurisdiction, NatWest shall, upon becoming aware of such InterTrust
Terms being deemed unenforceable or otherwise ineffective, or upon receiving
written notice from InterTrust as to such reasonable belief, substitute new
terms provided by InterTrust concerning such unenforceable or ineffective
provision in such Customer Agreement forms or existing Customer Agreements, and
take other actions as reasonably specified by InterTrust related to such
unenforceability concerns, including reforming, modifying and/or canceling any
such Customer Agreement if necessary to provide InterTrust with the legally
enforceable protection contemplated hereunder.
(c) InterTrust Terms Review. Under no circumstances: (i) shall any such
-----------------------
review by InterTrust of InterTrust Terms and/or any terms of any Customer
Agreement subsequently be interpreted and/or used as comments of InterTrust to
be relied upon by NatWest in any manner whatsoever regarding compliance of such
InterTrust Terms and/or such Customer Agreement terms with the provisions of
this Agreement; and/or (ii) shall any such review or lack of review by
InterTrust be deemed (1) binding on InterTrust or constitute any waiver of any
rights whatsoever hereunder by InterTrust and/or (2) an admission or waiver of
any kind whatsoever under any circumstances whatsoever, except that NatWest may
rely on InterTrust Terms attached to Exhibit D hereto as amended from time to
time in accordance herewith.
(d) Clearing Agreement. Where NatWest is performing any Clearinghouse
------------------
Function services for a Person selling, acting as lessor or licensor of,
vending, or in any comparable manner providing rights related to Content, or
performing any other activities constituting a Content Transaction for
consideration for such Content (a "Vendor"), NatWest shall have a written
------
agreement with such Vendor concerning such performance of Clearinghouse
Functions, and such agreement shall contain (in addition to the InterTrust
Terms, as applicable), at minimum, provisions: (i) requiring such Vendor to
report and certify Customer's Portion Information (as defined in Section
5.1((b)) hereof) to NatWest in writing, and regularly update such reported
information (consistent with the timing of NatWest's obligation to remit
royalties pursuant to Section 5.2 hereof) in the event of any change thereof;
(ii) terminating such agreement in the instance that such reported information
is found to have been materially or intentionally misrepresented or repeatedly
negligently reported; and (iii) permitting InterTrust to act as a third party
beneficiary (with the right to enforce) those provisions set forth in the
preceding subparagraphs (i) and (ii) under the law of such jurisdiction and
venue as set forth in the InterTrust Terms, unless any such terms are prohibited
by applicable law, and then as reasonably agreed by the Parties.

on all NatWest Products, and Distributable Documentation: (i) in the "about
box," or (ii) at such other equivalent location(s) as may be required to provide
legally sufficient notice and/or as reasonably agreed in writing by InterTrust
and NatWest, such as on certain screens generated by or including the NatWest
Products and/or any associated services, and at such other locations as
appropriate to protect InterTrust's Intellectual Property or as may be
reasonable practice in the U.S. software industry. For purposes of this
Agreement, the term "Notices" shall consist of: (i) Intellectual Property
Rights, warranty, and disclaimer notices; and (ii) field of use notices
consistent with the terms of this Agreement (including protection of InterTrust
rights recognized hereby) as all such notices may be reasonably amended by
InterTrust from time to time consistent with the provisions of Section
4.2((b)), and this Agreement. A representative version of such Notices as of
the Effective Date are attached hereto as Exhibit E. NatWest shall not remove,
alter, cover, obfuscate and/or otherwise deface any InterTrust Trademarks or
Notices on any InterTrust Technology or associated documentation, marketing and
advertising materials therefor, and shall contractually prohibit any and all
Customers from -- and take commercially reasonable efforts to enforce such
prohibitions against any Person known by NatWest to be in breach of such
provisions concerning -- removing, altering, covering, obfuscating or otherwise
defacing of any InterTrust Trademarks or Notices on any InterTrust Technology
or associated documentation, marketing and advertising materials therefor.
Compliance with subsections (i) and (ii) immediately above (following notice
and opportunity to cure in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.2
hereof) shall constitute a condition precedent to the licenses granted under
Section 3 hereof with respect to those specific NatWest Products and/or
associated services not in compliance herewith.
(b) InterTrust Branding. NatWest shall, in accordance with the provisions
-------------------
of this Section 4.3((b)) and InterTrust's reasonable instructions provided from
time to time by InterTrust to NatWest, place the InterTrust brands as specified
below on all NatWest Products and associated services, Distributable
Documentation, marketing, sales, and advertising materials therefor, packaging
for any physical media containing any such products or services, on
initialization and/or start-up screens of any NatWest Products and/or
associated services, or such screens generated by or including the NatWest
Products and/or any associated services.
The InterTrust brands shall be the symbol or mark denoting Compliance of such
NatWest Products and/or associated services with InterTrust Specifications,
including the statement that such NatWest Products or associated services are
"InterTrustworthy" or "InterTrustable" (as such symbol or mark may be amended by
InterTrust from time to time consistent with the provisions of Section 4.4((e))
hereof). Such branding shall be located and appear in the manner specified by
InterTrust, which shall be prominent, although secondary to the brands of
NatWest and/or a NatWest Customer on a NatWest Product and/or service. Such
InterTrust branding shall be prominent, but not unreasonably detract from, or
interfere with, such other brands. NatWest shall not remove, alter, cover,
obfuscate and/or otherwise deface any InterTrust brands and shall contractually
prohibit its Customers from, and take commercially reasonable efforts to enforce
such prohibitions against any Customer known to NatWest to be in breach of such
provision concerning, the removal, alteration, covering, obfuscation or
otherwise defacing of such InterTrust brands.
(c) NatWest Product Branding. NatWest Products that are: (i)
------------------------
Clearinghouse Products (and/or services associated therewith) shall be branded
and marketed solely under NatWest Trademarks; and (ii) Application Products
(and/or services associated therewith) shall be branded and marketed solely
under NatWest Trademarks or "Co-Branded" (as defined below) under a NatWest
----------
Trademark and the trademark of a Customer in accordance with the provisions
hereof (except where use of InterTrust Trademarks is also required herein, or
other trademarks of Persons are also included in a limited manner to identify
other technology or services associated with such NatWest Product and/or
associated service), and in all events in accordance with the provisions of
Section 4.5 and other provisions hereof. As used herein, "Co-Branded" means that
----------
both a NatWest Trademark brand and the brand of a NatWest Customer appear on a
NatWest Product and/or associated service; provided that the NatWest brand shall
-------- ----
at least be clearly evident and prominent in all instances of branding usage
without unreasonably detracting from or interfering with such NatWest Customer
brand. References to Clearinghouse Function services with, in, or otherwise
related to NatWest Products that are Application Products, and/or services
through which NatWest provides Clearinghouse Function services shall be
prominently branded solely under NatWest Trademarks (except as provided under
Section 4.3((b)) including prominent branding on screens and/or user interfaces
directly relating to initiating and/or reporting on transactions, and
16

CONFIDENTIAL
materially prominent, though potentially secondary, mention on other splash
screens and/or other relevant screens visible to end users. If NatWest is not
performing the Clearinghouse Function services for any NatWest Product and/or
associated service then, in addition to the foregoing with respect to a Co-
Branded Product, the NatWest Trademark Brand shall occupy not less than [*]% of
the aggregate presentation area in any NatWest Product and/or associated service
dedicated to the presentation of any brands. In no event shall branding be
employed that may be in any manner unclear that the branding and provision of
Clearinghouse Products (and/or services associated therewith) is provided solely
by NatWest.
(d) Network Notices. At InterTrust's option and upon NatWest's approval,
---------------
which shall not be unreasonably withheld given the balance of commercial
reasons, NatWest Web pages that materially promote or otherwise support NatWest
Products, and/or associated services and InterTrust Technology (and/or at least
one NatWest Web page that materially promotes NatWest Products and/or associated
services if no Web pages materially promote or otherwise support InterTrust
Technology) shall contain a graphical banner provided by InterTrust and a link
to a Web page provided by InterTrust on the Internet or the equivalent thereof
on any other public electronic network that materially promotes InterTrust
Technology. At NatWest's option and upon InterTrust's approval, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld given the balance of commercial reasons, InterTrust Web
pages that materially promote or otherwise support InterTrust Technology and
NatWest Products and/or associated services (and/or at least one InterTrust Web
page that materially promotes InterTrust Technology if no Web pages materially
promote or otherwise support NatWest Products and/or associated services) shall
contain a graphical banner provided by NatWest and a link to a Web page provided
by NatWest on the Internet or the equivalent thereof on any other public
electronic network that materially promotes NatWest Products and/or associated
services so long as NatWest treats InterTrust as its preferred partner for
Secure Container and/or Digital Rights Management technologies.
(e) Prospective Notice. The Notices shall be effective beginning on the
------------------
date InterTrust gives NatWest written notice thereof and NatWest shall implement
and/or comply with applicable portions thereof as soon as reasonably
commercially practicable thereafter.

---------------------
(a) Standards. NatWest recognizes the importance of InterTrust's
---------
reputation and goodwill as the provider of a commercial trust environment and in

bearing InterTrust Trademarks. Consequently, to maintain InterTrust's interest
in and rights to the InterTrust Trademarks NatWest shall utilize the InterTrust
Trademarks in accordance with reasonable trademark guidelines (which may include
approved samples and exemplars) as may be provided to NatWest by InterTrust.
Such trademark guidelines shall include a list of InterTrust Trademarks and
shall specify restrictions on use, if any, including permitted and prohibited
countries and jurisdictions. InterTrust Trademarks and trademark guidelines as
of the Effective Date are initially listed on Exhibit B attached hereto, and may
be modified by InterTrust from time to time upon InterTrust's provision to
NatWest of reasonable prior written notice. Any such modification shall not
include any names, logos or marks that substantially conflict, create a
likelihood of confusion with, or cause substantial or material dilution of any
then-existing trademark rights of NatWest.
(b) Trademark Ownership; Contestability. NatWest acknowledges and agrees
-----------------------------------
that all uses of InterTrust Trademarks as permitted hereunder, and goodwill
associated therewith, shall inure solely to the benefit of InterTrust. NatWest
shall not contest the validity of any InterTrust Trademarks (or registrations
thereof or applications with respect thereto), or InterTrust's exclusive
ownership of the InterTrust Trademarks or their associated goodwill: (i) with
respect to any InterTrust Trademarks included on Exhibit B as of the Effective
Date ("Initial Trademarks"); and/or (ii) with respect to any InterTrust
------------------
Trademarks later added to such Exhibit B in accordance with Section 4.4((a))
("Added Trademarks") (provided that NatWest uses such Added Trademarks in
----------------
commerce during the term hereof). NatWest agrees to make available to
InterTrust, upon request with reasonable notice, samples of records and other
documentary evidence as is (are) retained in the ordinary course of

country.
(c) Confusing Similarity. NatWest shall not use any marks identical with
--------------------
or confusingly similar to any of the Initial Trademarks, or Added Trademarks
used in commerce by NatWest at any time, and shall not register or attempt to
register any marks identical with or confusingly similar to any Initial
Trademarks or any Added Trademarks used in commerce by NatWest at any time
during the term hereof. NatWest also shall not knowingly permit to be used or
affixed (and shall take commercially reasonable steps to prohibit Customer from
using or affixing) any trademark on any NatWest Product supplied to such
Customer to the extent such trademark could reasonably be thought to be
confusingly similar to or create any market confusion with any trademarks used
by such Customer in connection with any products or services using Secure
Container technology (other than InterTrust Technology Secure Containers).
(d) Approvals. InterTrust shall have the right to review (reasonably
---------
prior to first commercial use) and to approve (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) all uses of InterTrust Trademarks, including
any use thereof on NatWest Products, and in connection with associated services
(including performance of Clearinghouse Functions) provided by NatWest relating
to products and applications employing InterTrust Technology and/or Modified
Technology, and in related documentation and marketing materials. Uses or
ranges of uses of InterTrust Trademarks approved in writing by InterTrust may be
used by NatWest in connection with NatWest Products and/or associated services,
and all applicable related documentation and marketing materials until
InterTrust informs NatWest in writing that such use or range of uses is no
longer approved, and such notification shall take effect in the manner set forth
in Section 4.3((e)) hereof.
(e) Prospective Notice. Changes in the InterTrust Trademarks and
------------------
associated standards of quality shall be effective beginning on the date
InterTrust gives NatWest written notice thereof and NatWest shall, as soon as
reasonably commercially practicable thereafter, implement and/or comply with
such respective portions thereof.
4.5 NatWest's Use of NatWest Trademarks on NatWest Products. To promote the
-------------------------------------------------------
branded and distinct identity of any NatWest Products, or associated services,
NatWest acknowledges and agrees that any trademark or logo used by NatWest
and/or a NatWest Customer (with respect to Co-Branded NatWest Products) in
commerce to specifically identify, label or market any such products or services
(other than trademarks or logos that serve to generally identify NatWest or such
NatWest Customer) shall not, concurrently or thereafter, be used to identify any
product or service other than such NatWest Products, and associated services,
whether by NatWest, such NatWest Customer, or pursuant to license from NatWest.
4.6 NatWest Trademarks. InterTrust shall obtain permission from NatWest for any
------------------
use of NatWest's Trademarks in connection with marketing activities (which
permission shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and shall comply with
NatWest's instructions provided in writing by NatWest concerning such further
use of any NatWest Trademarks, except that InterTrust shall have the royalty
free, nontransferable (except as provided in Section 14.4) worldwide right to
use the NatWest Trademarks and other NatWest trademarks as selected by NatWest,
solely in connection with any publicity in accordance with Sections 4.3((d)),
7.1, 7.2 and 9.3 hereof. InterTrust shall comply with all reasonable trademark
guidelines provided in writing by NatWest concerning such use of any NatWest
Trademarks which guidelines shall specify restrictions on use, including
permitted countries and jurisdictions. The provisions of Section 4.4 shall apply
reciprocally to InterTrust with respect to NatWest Trademarks as it applies to
NatWest with respect to InterTrust Trademarks, and InterTrust shall comply with
such provisions. NatWest Trademarks and trademark guidelines as of the Effective
Date are listed on Exhibit B attached hereto, and may be reasonably modified by
NatWest from time to time upon NatWest's provision to InterTrust of reasonable
prior written notice thereof. Any such modification will not include any names,
logos or marks that substantially conflict with, create a likelihood of
confusion with, or cause a substantial or material dilution of then-existing
trademark rights of InterTrust.

report, certified to be accurate by an officer of NatWest specifying: (i) the
revenues derived by NatWest that are subject to royalties during each calendar
month of such quarter; (ii) the basis for calculation of the amounts due and

business day during each calendar month of a calendar quarter for which such
royalties are due. If The Wall Street Journal (Western Edition, or main edition
in absence of a Western Edition) ceases or fails to publish such rate of
exchange at any time during the term of this Agreement, the rate of exchange
during any such period of cessation shall be such rate as published by the Bank
of America (San Francisco, California) or its legal successor on the last
working day of such calendar quarter for which such royalties are due. In the
event all of the above cease to operate, the Parties shall reasonably agree upon
another internationally reputable source for such rate of exchange.
5.4 Taxes. NatWest shall pay taxes, including but not limited to withholding
-----
taxes, imposed by any foreign government or any other jurisdictions outside of
the United States, as applicable, on all fees and royalties payable to
InterTrust under this Agreement. NatWest shall be responsible for payment of
all sales, use, value-added and other taxes, duties and other charges that may
fall due with respect to the transfer to or licensing, reproduction,
distribution, and/or use by NatWest of the NatWest Products, and with respect to
NatWest's activities with respect to the Clearinghouse Functions. InterTrust
shall be responsible for payment of all sales, use, value-added and other taxes
that may be imposed by the United States government on InterTrust with respect
to the transfer or licensing to NatWest of the InterTrust Technology hereunder
or with respect to the payments received hereunder.
5.5 Interest. NatWest agrees that all sums owed or payable to InterTrust
--------
hereunder shall bear interest (compounded daily) at the rate of [*] percent

annualized basis as published at the end of a calendar quarter for which such
royalties are due, whichever is higher, or such lower rate as may be the maximum

same shall first become due up to and including the date of payment thereof
whether before or after judgment, and that NatWest shall be additionally liable
for all costs and expenses of collection, including, without limitation,
reasonable fees for attorneys and court costs. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
such specified rate of interest shall not excuse or in any way whatsoever be
construed as a waiver of NatWest's express obligation to timely provide any and

5.6 Audit. NatWest shall maintain during the term of this Agreement and for a
-----
period of five (5) years thereafter all books, records, accounts, and technical
materials regarding NatWest's activities in connection herewith sufficient to
determine and confirm NatWest's royalty obligations hereunder. Upon InterTrust's
request, NatWest will permit an independent auditor from one of the five largest
international accounting firms of InterTrust's choice (subject to NatWest's
consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to examine and
audit, at InterTrust's expense, during a reasonable time (but no more than [*]
during a [*] month period), such books, records, accounts, documentation and
materials, and take extracts therefrom or make copies thereof for the purpose of
verifying the correctness of reported royalty statements and payments provided
by NatWest. Prior to such audit, InterTrust shall cause such independent auditor
to execute a written confidentiality agreement supplied by NatWest, which shall
contain terms that are commercially reasonable under the circumstances and are
designed to reasonably protect the confidentiality of NatWest's information.
NatWest shall pay any unpaid delinquent amounts disclosed by such audit within
ten (10) days of InterTrust's request; provided that any such payment shall not
constitute an admission or waiver of any kind. To the extent such examination:
(i) discloses an underpayment of more than [*] dollars ($US[*]) and such
underpayment represents a sum greater than [*] of the sums paid to InterTrust by
NatWest during the applicable period subject to such audit; or (ii) discloses an
underpayment of more than [*] dollars ($US[*]), NatWest shall fully reimburse
InterTrust, promptly upon demand, for the reasonable fees and disbursements due
the auditor for such audit; provided that such prompt payment shall not be in
-------- ----
lieu of any other remedies or rights available to InterTrust hereunder. If an
audit reveals an overpayment, InterTrust shall notify NatWest of such
overpayment and NatWest will apply the amount of such overpayment against future
royalties due and payable to InterTrust (and such [*] royalties shall not be
subject to the provisions of Section [*] hereof concerning the [*]).

Technology Advisory Committee: (1) InterTrust shall grant NatWest the right to
have one seat as a member of the Technology Advisory Committee; and (2) NatWest,
at its option, may elect and notify InterTrust of its designation of an
executive (who may be an employee of NatWest and who shall not be involved in
Supporting Other Technology, and shall be an Agent of NatWest for
confidentiality purposes in accordance with Section 1 of Exhibit G attached
hereto) to serve on such committee. To the extent it participates, NatWest
shall: (A) be responsible for all acts and omissions of the representative in
connection with the Technology Advisory Committee; and (B) pay for all expenses
incurred by NatWest in connection with participation on such Committee.
NatWest's membership on the Technology Advisory Committee shall be contingent

InterTrust Technology as directly provided to NatWest by InterTrust in the
absence of NatWest activities hereunder, and further, except to the extent
NatWest is indemnified by InterTrust under Section 11.1 ((a)) hereof; and (iv)
any Claim relating to the Indemnification Exclusions.
(c) Third Party Claims. In case any Claim is brought by a third Person
------------------
for which Claim indemnification is or may be provided hereunder, the indemnified
Party shall provide prompt written notice thereof to the other Party. Where
obligated to indemnify such Claim, the indemnifying Party shall, upon the demand
and at the option of the indemnified Party, assume the defense thereof (at the
expense of the indemnifying Party) within thirty (30) days or at least ten (10)
days prior to the time a response is due in such case, whichever occurs first,
or, alternatively upon the demand and at the option of the indemnified Party,
pay to such Party all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, incurred by such Party in defending itself. The Parties shall
cooperate reasonably with each other in the defense of any Claim, including
making available (except as expressly set forth herein to the contrary, and in
all events under the strongest protective order reasonably available) all
records necessary to the defense of such Claim, and the indemnified Party shall
have the right to join and participate actively in the indemnifying Party's
defense of the Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing (and any other Section of
this Agreement), it is understood and acknowledged that InterTrust need not
under any circumstance provide Top Secret Information except as expressly
provided to the contrary in Section 3 of Exhibit G. Each Party shall be entitled
to prior notice of any settlement of any Claim to be entered into by the other
Party and to reasonable approval of a settlement to the extent such Party's
rights would be directly and materially impaired. Without limiting the
foregoing, in the event of any Claim or threatened Claim that [*] any [*]: (a)

NatWest's expense) to [*] and otherwise [*] in accordance with the terms and

and exclusive remedy in connection with such Claim, threatened Claim or action
of InterTrust in accordance with this Section 0(0), to terminate the licenses
granted hereunder upon thirty (30) days prior written notice; and (2) InterTrust
may, and without any liability whatsoever, terminate the licenses granted
hereunder as to such portion upon thirty (30) days prior written notice if in
the good faith opinion of InterTrust or its professional advisors, InterTrust
has a material risk of liability from NatWest's continued use of such portion of
InterTrust Technology.
11.2 Cumulative Remedies. Except as expressly provided herein to the contrary,
-------------------
no remedy made available to a Party by any of the provisions of this Agreement
is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every remedy shall
be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or
now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or otherwise.
11.3 Equitable Remedies. Each Party agrees that it may be impossible or

inadequate to measure and calculate a Party's damages from any material breach
of the covenants set forth in Sections 3.5, 5.6, 8,9, 13.2, 13.3, or 14.4
hereof. Accordingly, each Party agrees that if it or any of such Party's Agents
thereof materially breach or threaten a material breach or anticipatory
repudiation of any of such provisions, in addition to any other right or remedy
available, the other Party shall be entitled: (i) to obtain an injunction
against the breaching Party and such Party's Agents thereof, from a court of
competent jurisdiction restraining such breach or threatened breach; and (ii) to
specific performance of any such provision of this Agreement.

13.3 Effect of Termination. Upon the expiration or termination of this
---------------------
Agreement: (i) all licenses granted hereunder shall automatically terminate;

without such NatWest consent; provided that the successor-in-interest or
-------- ----
transferee assumes in writing InterTrust's rights and obligations under this
Agreement and consents to the licenses hereunder. Subject to the foregoing,
this Agreement will benefit and bind the successors and permitted assigns of the
Parties. Any attempted transfer or assignment without such consent shall be
null and void ab initio and of no force or effect.

EXHIBIT G
TO THE TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT, MARKETING AND LICENSE AGREEMENT
CONFIDENTIALITY PROVISIONS AND FORMS OF INTERTRUST CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENTS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONFIDENTIALITY PROVISIONS
--------------------------
1. InterTrust Information.
----------------------
(a) Confidential Information. To the extent that NatWest receives from
------------------------
InterTrust under this Agreement any InterTrust Technology or any other
information or technology that is marked "Confidential" when disclosed in
written form, or indicated as "Confidential" when disclosed orally ("InterTrust
----------
Confidential Information"), NatWest shall hold such InterTrust Confidential
- ------------------------
Information in strict confidence and in a manner that is: (i) sufficiently
secure for the character and content of the InterTrust Confidential Information;
and (ii) not less secure than procedures used by NatWest to protect its
comparably important information and technology. NatWest shall not, without the
prior written consent of an InterTrust Designated Officer, use, disclose,
provide or otherwise make available any InterTrust Confidential Information to
any Person, except to any employee, director, agent or professional consultant
(collectively "Agents") of NatWest who does not have a potential conflict of
------
interest with InterTrust Technology. Furthermore, in each case of disclosure to
an Agent of NatWest access to such InterTrust Confidential Information shall be
allowed only to Agents who have a reasonable need to know such InterTrust
Confidential Information, and then only to the extent necessary to enable
NatWest to use InterTrust Confidential Information solely to exercise its
license hereunder and/or as expressly allowed hereunder. NatWest shall, as the
case may be: (a) require their Agents having access to any portion of InterTrust
Confidential Information to strictly maintain its confidentiality; and (b)
ensure that each such Agent shall have executed with NatWest a written non-
disclosure/non-use agreement in the form set forth in this Exhibit G or as
subsequently provided by InterTrust, or NatWest's applicable form agreement
which shall effectively and comparably bind such Agent to an agreement of the
same scope as InterTrust's form agreement, and which such form agreement shall
be subject to InterTrust's reasonable prior written approval. Upon such
approval, the form agreement shall replace the pre-existing such form agreement.
NatWest shall notify InterTrust promptly in writing of any unauthorized
disclosure or other misuse or misappropriation of any portions of the InterTrust
Confidential Information which may come to the attention of a NatWest officer.
NatWest shall maintain a log of the Agents accessing and the location of all
originals and copies of material excerpts of technical Confidential Information.
NatWest shall be fully responsible for any breach of its obligations under this
Agreement by any Agent to whom such Confidential Information is disclosed. Any
obligation of NatWest to keep InterTrust Confidential Information in confidence
shall expire thirty-six (36) months after disclosure of such information by
InterTrust to NatWest; provided that InterTrust Technology shall be kept
-------- ----
confidential in perpetuity.
(b) Top Secret Information. In order to protect InterTrust's rights, the
----------------------
rights of InterTrust licensees, and the secure interoperability and reputation
of InterTrust implementations, NatWest shall treat any InterTrust Technology or
other confidential information that is either marked "Top Secret" when disclosed
in written form, or indicated as "Top Secret" when disclosed orally ("Top Secret
----------
Information") in a manner not less secure than NatWest's most secret information
- -----------
and, in all events in a manner sufficient to ensure the security of such Top
Secret Information, given such great sensitivity of such Top Secret Information.
NatWest shall allow disclosure of such Top Secret Information to no more than
[*] designated individual employees of NatWest at any time (and to no Agents
who are not employees), each of whom has a direct need to know such information
or be exposed to such Top Secret Information (as agreed in each case by
InterTrust) and then only to the extent necessary for NatWest to
- ---------- * CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED. CONFIDENTIAL PORTION HAS BEEN
FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
use Top Secret Information solely to exercise its rights and perform its
obligations under this Agreement. NatWest shall not substitute any employee
designated to receive Top Secret Information with another employee, unless such
designated employee's employment with NatWest has been terminated and such
person is no longer able to serve the intended role. None of such employees
shall receive a disclosure of any such Top Secret Information until: (i) such
employee executes an InterTrust Top Secrecy Agreement (in the form set forth in
this Exhibit G or as subsequently provided by InterTrust in writing) covering
such information and exposure; and (ii) an original executed copy of such
agreement is received by InterTrust, with return receipt provided to NatWest,
which such receipt may be provided by fax communication if so requested in
writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, NatWest and NatWest employees described
above shall make no physical embodiments (for example, any reproduction or copy,
including descriptive notes) whatsoever of Top Secret Information, without the
prior express written authorization of an InterTrust Designated Officer, nor
shall NatWest or such NatWest employees disclose any Top Secret Information to
any Person, except as described in this Section 1 of this Exhibit G. If NatWest
becomes aware that any Top Secret Information has been disclosed or treated
other than as set forth in this Section 1 of this Exhibit G, and/or as specified
in a Top Secrecy Agreement, NatWest shall immediately inform InterTrust of such
occurrence and take immediate steps to correct such compromise. NatWest shall
maintain a log of the employees accessing and location of all originals and
other tangible embodiments of all Top Secret Information. NatWest shall be fully
responsible for any breach by any NatWest employee of this Agreement related to
the unauthorized use or disclosure of Top Secret Information.
2. NatWest Information. To the extent that InterTrust receives NatWest
-------------------
confidential information that is either marked "Confidential" when disclosed in
written form or indicated as "Confidential" when disclosed orally ("NatWest
-------
Confidential Information"), under this Agreement, InterTrust shall hold such
- ------------------------
NatWest Confidential Information in confidence in a manner that is sufficiently
secure for the character and content of the information and under no
circumstances shall such NatWest Confidential Information be held in a manner
that is less secure than procedures used by InterTrust in connection with its
comparably important information. Except as to the disclosure by NatWest of the
Modified Technology or such disclosures inherent in the Certification Testing of
NatWest Products and/or any associated services pursuant hereto, and only to the
extent expressly specified by InterTrust Specifications, NatWest shall not
disclose or otherwise provide or make available any NatWest Confidential
Information which is directly related to InterTrust Technology and InterTrust's
business activities, without first acquiring written approval from an InterTrust
Designated Officer. InterTrust shall not use, disclose, provide or otherwise
make available any NatWest Confidential Information it has received in any form
to any person except an Agent of InterTrust. In a disclosure to Agents of
InterTrust, access to NatWest Confidential Information shall be allowed only to
Agents who have a reasonable need to know such confidential information and only
to the extent necessary to enable InterTrust to use confidential information to
exercise its rights and perform its obligations hereunder. InterTrust shall:
(a) require its Agents having access to any portion of confidential information
to strictly maintain its confidentiality; and (b) ensure that each such Agent
shall have executed with InterTrust a written non-disclosure/non-use agreement
to be provided by NatWest, and attached as part of this Exhibit G, or
InterTrust's applicable form agreement which shall effectively and comparably
bind such Agent to an agreement of the same scope as NatWest's form agreement,
and which InterTrust form agreement shall be subject to NatWest's reasonable
prior written approval. Upon such approval, the InterTrust form agreement shall
replace the relevant portion of this Exhibit G. InterTrust agrees to notify
NatWest promptly in writing of any unauthorized disclosure or other misuse or
misappropriation of NatWest Confidential Information provided to InterTrust
which may come to the attention of an InterTrust officer. InterTrust shall be
fully responsible for any breach of InterTrust's obligations under this
Agreement by any Agent to whom such NatWest Confidential Information has been
disclosed. Any obligation of InterTrust to keep NatWest information in
confidence shall expire thirty-six (36) months after
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
disclosure of such information by NatWest to InterTrust.
3. Exceptions. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 1 and 2 above, the
----------
confidentiality restrictions herein shall not apply to information that the
recipient thereof can demonstrate: (i) is or becomes generally known to the
public through no breach of any of these obligations, as of the date such
information becomes so known; (ii) is or shall have been independently developed
by such recipient (as demonstrated by recipient's written records) by employees
who had no access to such information; or (iii) is or shall have been rightfully
received, with no obligation of confidentiality or non-use, by such recipient
from any Person (other than as a result of another Person's breach of an
obligation of confidentiality to the discloser of such information), as of the
date such information is so received. In the case of Top Secret Information,
however, the availability to NatWest of information that is, or is substantially
equivalent to Top Secret Information based upon Section (i), (ii) and/or (iii)
above shall not, in any manner, diminish NatWest's obligations with respect to
the Top Secret Information provided by InterTrust to NatWest (and all copies or
derivatives thereof), and NatWest shall be prohibited from further disclosing to
third parties any such information in NatWest's possession based upon the
foregoing subsection (i), (ii) and/or (iii). In the event any Party is required
by law, regulation or order of a court or other authority of competent
jurisdiction to disclose the other Party's Confidential Information, such Party
shall notify such other Party as promptly as possible, and shall, upon such
other Party's request, reasonably assist in challenging or restricting the scope
of such required disclosure. Top Secret information may be disclosed only for
in camera inspection, or otherwise upon the prior written approval of an
- -- ------
InterTrust Designated Officer. In all events, a Party subject to such required
disclosure shall disclose only such information that is strictly required
pursuant thereto and no further information.
4. Return/Destruction. Each Party shall deliver to the other Party within ten
------------------
(10) days from the date of termination of this Agreement or as soon as is
reasonably practicable thereafter (except as relates to Top Secret Information)
(and provided that in no event shall such period exceed thirty (30) days) all
copies of all materials protected as Confidential Information or Top Secret
Information under this Agreement (the "Return Period"). Such returned
-------------
information shall include all copies in the possession or under the control of
such Party or their Agents; provided that with respect to non-tangible copies of
-------- ----
such information, rather than returning such non-tangible copies the receiving
Party may elect to fully and securely destroy such copies (e.g., in the case of
----
a computer file, permanently deleting such files) and provide the disclosing
Party during the Return Period with an affidavit or declaration signed by an
officer with knowledge of the facts certifying that all such non-tangible copies
have been so destroyed. Return of Confidential Information shall be by
commercially secure means as reasonably specified by the disclosing Party.
Return of Top Secret Information shall be made, at InterTrust's option as
specified by an InterTrust Designated Officer by written instruction to NatWest:
(a) by physical and secure pickup at NatWest's offices by an InterTrust officer
designated in writing by such InterTrust Designated Officer; or (b) as otherwise
may be determined by InterTrust as commercially reasonable. Such delivery shall
be during normal business hours and in each instance to the hands of an
InterTrust officer who receives a listing of the contents of such delivery
certified by an officer of NatWest and audited and countersigned by such
InterTrust officer. Within one (1) month after the termination of this
Agreement in the case of Top Secret Information and two (2) months after the
termination of this Agreement in the case of Confidential Information, each
Party will certify in writing to the other Party (as applicable hereunder) that,
to the best of its knowledge, all such materials and tangible embodiments have
been delivered to the other Party.

2 Non-Disclosure and Restrictions on Use of InterTrust Extremely
--------------------------------------------------------------
Confidential.

by InterTrust's Chairman, or other such person designated in writing by the
Chairman (a "Designated InterTrust Officer"), Recipient agrees that he or she
-----------------------------

irreparable damage. Recipient further agrees that it may be impossible or
inadequate to measure and calculate InterTrust's damages from any breach of the
covenants set forth in Sections 2 and/or 3 hereof. Accordingly, Recipient
agrees that if he or she breaches or threatens breach of any of such sections,
InterTrust will have available, in addition to any other right or remedy
available, the right to obtain an injunction against him or her, from a court of
competent jurisdiction restraining such breach or threatened breach and to

District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Alexandria Division
Virginia, or if jurisdiction does not properly lie in such court, the
Commonwealth courts in Alexandria, Virginia. The parties consent to the
personal and exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such court and waive any
argument that jurisdiction or venue in such court is improper or inconvenient.
6 Severability; Export Compliance. If any provision or portion thereof in
-------------------------------
this Agreement shall be found or be held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable
in any jurisdiction in which this Agreement is being performed, then this
Agreement shall nevertheless be given full force and effect without said

Agreement, the provisions of which shall be deemed to be supplemented hereby as
of the date first written above. This Agreement may not be modified except by
written agreement dated subsequent to the date of this Agreement and signed by
both parties.
8 Successors. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement, this
----------
Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties, their
successors and assigns.

jurisdiction or as otherwise required by law; provided that the undersigned
-------- ----
shall provide prompt advance notice thereof to InterTrust to enable InterTrust
to seek a protective order or otherwise prevent such disclosure and shall
disclose no more than the minimum information required by such court order or by
law.
6. If any provision or portion thereof in this Agreement shall be found
or be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction in which this Agreement is being performed,
then this Agreement shall nevertheless be given full force and effect without
said provision or portion. This Agreement may not be modified except by written
agreement dated subsequent to the date of this Agreement and signed by both
parties. This agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of
the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Virginia, USA, without
reference to conflicts of laws principles. All disputes arising out of or
relating to the subject matter of this Agreement shall be subject to the
exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the United States District Court for the

whatsoever to be licensed under this Agreement for any use - in any manner
whatsoever and notwithstanding any interpretation of any other provisions
hereof -- with any InterTrust Technology or Licensed Rights received by
Universal under this Agreement. Each of the sublicense agreement set forth in
Section 2.1(a) and the delegation agreement set forth in Section 2.1(b) shall
provide that it is to and for InterTrust's benefit, and (i) in the event
Universal fails to promptly enforce the rights sublicensed hereunder, then such
rights may be enforced by InterTrust at its discretion as a third party
beneficiary (provided that notice is first provided to Universal and Universal
does not fully enforce such rights expeditiously thereafter), and/or (ii) with
respect to InterTrust's Intellectual Property Rights and/or rights in InterTrust
Technology or to payment of royalties or other fees for performance of
Clearinghouse Functions and/or royalties or other fees for distribution of
venture products and/or associated services using InterTrust Technology as would

(d) Competitive Entity Restrictions.
-------------------------------
(i) General. If at any time any Competitive Entity participates
-------
in the Governance of an Authorized Venture or gains access to any InterTrust
Confidential Information and/or Top Secret Information directly or indirectly
from the Authorized Venture (a "Non-Partnering Venture Event"), then (1) such
----------------------------
Authorized Venture and/or Universal, upon any Venture Executive or Universal
Executive (as the case may be) becoming aware of such Non-Partnering Venture
Event, shall promptly provide written notice thereof to InterTrust and (B) such
Competitive Entity shall within thirty (30) days cease participation in the
Governance of any Authorized Venture and immediately cease to have access to
InterTrust Confidential Information. Under no circumstances shall a Competitive
Entity have any access to any Top Secret Information, and if any such access
occurs, the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall apply with
respect thereto. Within thirty (30) days after initiating such Non-Partnering
Venture Event, either: (x) such Competitive Entity and such Authorized Venture,
as of and when such Authorized Venture becomes aware of such Non-Partnering
Venture Event, shall have taken such action as necessary to fully divest such
Competitive Entity of all its equity interest and other securities in such
Authorized Venture, or (y) such Competitive Entity shall have ceased such Non-
Partnering Venture Event. If such Competitive Entity has neither completed the
divestiture of its equity interest in such Authorized Venture nor ceased such
Non-Partnering Venture Event within the thirty (30) day period, then InterTrust
shall have the right to immediately terminate the sublicense or the delegation
(as the case may be) and/or this Agreement. If such Non-Partnering Venture Event
is a material, intentional act participated in by a Competitive Entity with the
knowledge of an officer or executive of such Competitive Entity, then the
Authorized Venture shall take such actions as necessary to divest such
Competitive Entity of all its equity interest and other securities convertible
into equity interest in the Authorized Venture. To the extent a Competitive
Entity has ceased to participate in the Governance of the Authorized Venture and
to have access to InterTrust Confidential Information, shall have otherwise
returned in an appropriate, secure manner any such Confidential Information and
makes no use of such Confidential Information, and such intentional Non-
Partnering Venture Event by such Competitive Entity has not materially harmed
InterTrust, such Competitive Entity may otherwise participate in the Authorized
Venture in a manner consistent with this Agreement so long as such Non-
Partnering Venture Event did not occur with the knowledge of any Universal
Executive or Authorized Venture Executive and did not involve a Competitive
Entity gaining access to Top Secret Information. In no instance shall any such
divestiture or cessation of a Non-Partnering Event be deemed to limit in any
manner any other right InterTrust has under this Agreement, or at law or in
equity.
(ii) Management of Technology. In order to avoid potential
------------------------
conflicts or controversy with respect to development by personnel,
subcontractors, consultants, or other agents of Universal and/or any Authorized
Venture (each of the foregoing, "Venture Agent(s)") of any Other Technology,
----------------
Universal and each Authorized Venture shall establish and maintain at all times
during which any rights hereunder are in effect, the "Screening Procedures" set
--------------------

CONFIDENTIAL
forth on Exhibit E hereto to prevent: (i) exposure of any member or personnel of
Universal or any Authorized Venture, as applicable, who has access and/or
exposure to InterTrust Confidential Information and/or Top Secret Information
from performing any work directly related to any Other Technology; and/or (ii)
exposure of any member or personnel of Universal or any Authorized Venture who
is performing, has performed on behalf of any Authorized Venture, or will,
solely as set forth herein, subsequently perform any technical work or analysis
directly relating to Other Technology from having access or exposure to, or
performing any work with respect to, InterTrust Confidential Information and/or
Top Secret Information (collectively, and along with information of the
Authorized Venture as provided in Exhibit E, "Confidentially Handled
----------------------
Information"). Such Screening Procedures shall be in place while licenses and
- -----------
the sublicense and/or delegation are in effect and for a period of twelve (12)
months thereafter. In no event shall more than an aggregate of twelve (12)
employees of Universal and the Authorized Ventures at any given point in time be
authorized to, and/or receive or otherwise gain access to, InterTrust Top Secret
Information, and then subject to the provision of Section 9.2(b) hereof. No
Venture Agent shall remove, or permit its personnel to remove, any InterTrust
Confidential Information and/or Top Secret Information from premises controlled
by the Authorized Venture, except as may be expressly provided for herein and/or
in InterTrust Specifications. If any Universal Executives or any Venture
Executives become aware of any breach of this Section 2.1(d) (a "Compromising
------------
Event"), such Person shall, as soon as reasonably possible under the
- -----
circumstances taking into account the nature and severity of the Compromising
Event, take such steps as appropriate considering the circumstances to cease
such Compromising Event and to prevent the reoccurrence of Compromising Events.
Such appropriate steps under the circumstances shall, at a minimum, include: (i)
promptly informing InterTrust in writing of the occurrence of and circumstances
surrounding a Compromising Event; (ii) investigating the nature and extent of
the contamination caused by the Compromising Event (and report such findings
promptly to InterTrust in writing); and (iii) taking effective measures to
remedy all material effects of such Compromising Event. In the event Universal
and any Authorized Venture fail to take the actions set forth in this Section
2.1(d), InterTrust shall be entitled to immediately terminate such sublicense or
delegation (as the case may be) and/or this Agreement, and Section 11.3 shall
apply, in addition to any other remedies available to InterTrust under this
Agreement, at law or in equity; provided that any such termination shall not
-------- ----
occur for Universal's or the Authorized Venture's failure, as applicable, to
comply with the provisions of the immediately preceding subparagraph (iii) where
Universal and such Authorized Venture, as applicable, used good faith efforts to
comply with the provisions of such subparagraph (iii) including following
InterTrust's reasonable instructions concerning remedying the effects of such
Compromising Event.
(iii) Exception for ADK Sublicense. To the extent that Universal
----------------------------
grants a sublicense to the Development Venture under the Development Pass
Through Provisions solely with respect to InterTrust Technology consisting of
those portions of the Commerce 1.1 Application Developer's Kit (as described in
Exhibit A) as provided by InterTrust (the "ADK Technology") and provides such
--------------
Development Venture no access to any InterTrust Technology other than the ADK
Technology, then: (1) the provisions of Sections 2.1(d)(i) and 2.1(d)(ii) shall
not restrict [*] or [*] from having access to InterTrust Confidential
Information contained in such ADK Technology; (2) such access and participation
shall not be construed to be a Non-Partnering Venture Event; (3) the Screening
Procedures set forth in Section 2.1(d)(ii) shall not apply to members and
personnel of the Development Venture who have access solely to the ADK
Technology and no other InterTrust Technology; and (4) the provisions of Section
9 shall not restrict the use by employees of [*] or [*] who are Agents of the
Development Venture of information that is learned by such Agents from exposure
to the ADK Technology pursuant hereto and retained in the memory of such Agents,
provided that all other confidentiality obligations (including non-disclosure
obligations) under Section 9 shall continue to apply in accordance herewith. The
provisions of this Section 2.1(d)(iii) shall be effective for eighteen (18)
months from the Effective Date, and thereafter for so long as [*] and [*] are
not Competitive Entities.
2.2 Interpretation of Definitions. In the event any of the Pass Through
-----------------------------
Provisions reference Universal or reference defined terms which refer to
Universal, such Pass Through Provisions and defined terms shall apply to the
appropriate Authorized Venture mutatis mutandis.

Parties) for up to [*] Universal personnel, and (2) access via e-mail and
telephone during normal business hours to InterTrust support personnel,
consistent with InterTrust standard policies and consistent with applicable U.S.
software industry practices and the foregoing. Universal shall be responsible
for all expenses incurred by Universal's personnel in traveling to and attending
any training and support meetings (such meetings are normally held at an
InterTrust facility). In the event InterTrust's personnel travel from
InterTrust's facilities to provide Assistance (upon InterTrust's and Universal's
mutual agreement made in writing (including by email)), Universal shall
reimburse InterTrust for all actual, documented and reasonable travel, lodging,
and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by InterTrust's personnel. To the extent
InterTrust provides Assistance as set forth in this Section 3.2 for another
Person in the Entertainment Field, InterTrust shall also make such Assistance
available to Universal, at Universal's option, [*].
(ii) If, after the first [*] months of the Initial Support
Period, InterTrust offers standard support package(s) to Business Partners, at
least one of which support packages is substantially commensurate with the
support provided by InterTrust to Universal during the first [*] months of the
Initial Support Period and has economic terms [*] ("Standard Support"),
-------- -------
Universal shall choose among such Standard Support packages as may be available,
and, thereafter, all Support and other obligations as set forth in Section 3.2
hereof shall be exclusively governed by the terms and conditions of the support
package so chosen by Universal. If Standard Support is not available as of the
end of such first [*] months of the Initial Support Period, during the remainder
of the Initial Support Period Universal shall receive the same support it
received during the first [*] months of the Initial Support Period on terms [*],

(d) Dedicated Personnel. InterTrust and Universal will each
-------------------
appoint a relationship manager, to coordinate its activities pursuant to this
Section 3.2, and a technical project manager to coordinate and provide the
Assistance set forth in Sections 3.2(a) and 3.2(b).
3.3 Additional Assistance; Further Support. During the Initial Support
--------------------------------------
Period, additional Assistance may be made available by InterTrust to Universal
beyond the Assistance allocated under Section 3.2(a). To the extent Universal
requests, and InterTrust decides (in the exercise of its discretion) to provide
such additional Assistance, Universal shall pay to InterTrust such fees as
InterTrust customarily charges its preferred customers for such assistance under
like circumstances. Following the Initial Support Period all support or
assistance thereafter provided shall be according to InterTrust's standard
support policies and packages; provided that support at least commensurate with
-------------
the provisions of Section 3.2(b) shall be available to Universal so long as
Universal has materially, commercially employed InterTrust Technology. To the
extent InterTrust reasonably requires Business Partners who have license rights
and obligations comparable to Universal to maintain at least a certain minimum
level of support with respect to its licensed activities, Universal shall
maintain at least such minimum level of support. Such support shall be available
to Universal on reasonable terms consistent with industry practices, and [*].

5. USE OF CONTRACTORS; UNIVERSAL SUPPORT AND
ADDITIONAL COVENANTS.
5.1 Use of Contractors. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
------------------
Agreement, Universal may use Contractors in connection with the rights granted
herein; provided that: (i) InterTrust approves use of such Contractor in writing
-------------
(such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; reasonable grounds
for withholding such approval including such Contractor having a reasonably
known or anticipated material conflict of interest with InterTrust's business,
such as, for example, commercially or publicly using, deploying, or
participating in the commercial or public use or deployment of any Other

wherein such contractor agreement shall specify any physical location, security
provisions, as well as adherence to InterTrust Specifications and other
parameters necessary for secure handling of such information (such form to be
attached as an Exhibit hereto upon such approval by the Parties) (the
"Contractor Agreement"). All such use of Contractors by Universal shall be
--------------------
limited to that use of Contractors reasonably needed by Universal to effectively
and directly exercise its rights hereunder, and Universal acknowledges and
agrees that InterTrust may refuse to approve the use of Contractors (or
contractor sites) where InterTrust in good faith believes that the number of
Contractors and/or sites having access to InterTrust Technology and/or
InterTrust Confidential Information poses a material risk (1) to the security or
trustedness of InterTrust Technology-based deployments, or (2) concerning
disclosure or misuse of InterTrust Confidential Information; provided that use

<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
exceed an acceptable number of Contractors hereunder. It is understood that
approval of Contractors with respect to access to Top Secret Information will be
more stringent given the nature of such information.
5.2 Universal Support of InterTrust Technology.
------------------------------------------
(a) Universal Use of InterTrust Technology. In accordance with the
--------------------------------------
licenses granted to Universal and the other terms and conditions hereof,
Universal agrees to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to develop,

more Universal Products within [*] months following the Effective Date. Such
time period shall be extended by any period in which there exists a Material
Defect in the InterTrust Technology that reasonably impedes Universal's
development efforts in a material manner, but only for the period from the date
that Universal documents such defect as provided in Section 3.2(b) hereof to the
date InterTrust has reasonably corrected or mitigated such defect as provided in
Section 3.2(b) and only to the extent that such Material Defect has reasonably
impeded such development efforts in a material manner.
(b) Compliance with InterTrust Specifications.
-----------------------------------------
(i) Products and Services. Universal shall not for any
---------------------
reason commence the distribution, sale or other transfer of any specific
Universal Product, or perform any associated service relating to InterTrust
Technology or otherwise exercise any license right hereunder that is subject to
any InterTrust Specifications, unless such products and/or services, and/or
other exercise of any such license right, as applicable, (1) are in Compliance
with InterTrust Specifications existing on the date of Universal's commencement
of such distribution, sale, or other transfer of such specific Universal
Product, performance of any associated services, and/or other exercises of such
license rights hereunder, and (2) are otherwise performed in full compliance
with this Agreement, with no exceptions whatsoever. After such commencement of
such distribution, sale, or other transfer of a specific Universal Product,
performance of an associated service or other exercise of any such licensed
right hereunder, Universal shall continue to comply with InterTrust
Specifications, as such InterTrust Specifications may be changed or modified
from time to time in the manner and within the time frames set forth in Section
5.2(b)(ii). Such InterTrust Specifications shall be established and applied in a
nondiscriminatory and consistent manner with respect to all Persons regarding
similar products and/or services. Further, in making decisions regarding
InterTrust Specifications, InterTrust shall not [*].
(ii) Compliance with New Specifications. InterTrust may,
----------------------------------
from time to time in its discretion, change or enhance InterTrust
Specifications, or modify InterTrust Specifications, for example, to accommodate
changes in InterTrust Technology, and/or any related InterTrust product
development, for, without limitation, such purposes as, improving architectural
integrity, functional capability, standardization, security capability,
efficiency, and/or interoperability of technology, components, products and/or
services that use InterTrust Technology (a "New Specification"). InterTrust
-----------------
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain compatibility between a
New Specification and the then-preceding Specification, unless considerations of
security, interoperability, performance, business development and/or
functionality enhancement indicate that such compatibility is not commercially
appropriate.

CONFIDENTIAL
To the extent InterTrust releases a New Specification that applies to any
portion of a Universal Product and/or service associated with InterTrust
Technology then being performed or distributed by Universal (as applicable),
Universal shall bring any further such products delivered to Customers, and/or
any such services (as applicable), into Compliance with such New Specification
as of the earliest to occur of: (1) the next version, release, or production
cycle of such Universal Product and/or such associated service (the "Next
----
Version"), as earlier applicable, but only to the extent that Universal receives
- -------
notice of such New Specification within a reasonably sufficient time prior to
the release of such Next Version to accommodate new aspects of such New
Specification; and (2) [*] months. InterTrust and Universal further agree that
Universal shall, within [*] months after receiving a released copy of such New
Specification, implement such new aspects of such New Specification for all
applicable services supporting and/or employing Universal Products and/or
associated services provided to Customers not meeting such New Specification
that were shipped to Customers prior to Universal fulfilling the requirement of
the immediately preceding sentence. Within the context of Technology Advisory
Committee meetings and/or communications with members of such Technology
Advisory Committee in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.3, InterTrust
will, as appropriate from time to time, inform Universal that a change in
InterTrust Specifications is pending in advance of InterTrust's release of a New
Specification; provided that: (i) InterTrust has made a final determination that
-------- ----
it will issue such a New Specification materially prior to providing such New
Specification to Universal, and, in InterTrust's exercise of good faith, the
modifications contained within such New Specification reasonably, commercially
merit an early disclosure; and (ii) in InterTrust's exercise of good faith the
content of such New Specification and the date upon which such New Specification
will be released are sufficiently certain such that, on balance, the benefit of
Core Partners and Business Partners knowing about such New Specification
materially outweighs the potential detriment to Core Partners and Business
Partners of the announcement of a pending New Specification prior to its
completion and release. The sole and exclusive remedy for any such lack of
notification by InterTrust shall be an extension of the [*] month period
specified in subsection (2) immediately above by one (1) month. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, should serious technical interoperability and/or security
requirements commercially necessitate more prompt actions, Universal and
InterTrust will confer and agree upon the most prompt, practical schedule
feasible (considering the circumstances of such serious technical
interoperability and/or security requirement) to ensure Compliance with the New
Specification for all Universal Products and any associated services relating to
InterTrust Technology. Under such conditions, Universal shall take whatever
commercially appropriate steps are reasonable and required under the
circumstances to eliminate (as may be necessary and feasible) a continuation of
such interoperability and/or security problems. As may be reasonable,
appropriate, and applicable in light of Universal Products and consistent with
the purposes of the New Specification, in response to a reasonable request by
Universal, the Parties will [*] in good faith (and may mutually agree in each
Party's discretion) as to [*], and if [*], under what [*], [*], and, to what
[*], any [*] set forth in the preceding portions of this Section 5.2(b)(ii)
should be [*] to [*] reasonable commercial factors that may result from the
deployment of silicon embedded hardware versions of InterTrust Technology as
may be built directly into consumer devices and/or computers.
(c) Compliance Testing.
------------------
(i) Purpose; Basic Parameters. Universal acknowledges that:
-------------------------
(1) in support of InterTrust Technology, InterTrust will implement one or more
certification programs designed to ensure that licensed products and/or
associated services (including Universal Products) use InterTrust Technology
and/or Modified Technology in Compliance with InterTrust Specifications and that
Universal Products and associated services are in compliance with this Agreement
(the "Certification Program(s)"); and (2) such Certification Program(s) is (are)
-----------------------
critical to maintaining the reliability, interoperability, and tamper resistance
of products and associated services employing InterTrust Technology and/or
Modified Technology, and in maintaining public confidence in the integrity of
InterTrust Technology and/or brands as the resource for interoperable electronic
commerce. In establishing its Certification Programs, as may be modified from
time to time, InterTrust shall use reasonable efforts to establish policies
supporting efficient certification of products and services based upon
InterTrust Technology, subject, in InterTrust's discretion, to achieving the
aforementioned goals of certification. As appropriate under the circumstances as
determined by InterTrust in its discretion, such alternatives may, under certain
circumstances, include: (A) the pre-certification of certain components of
InterTrust Technology for use in Universal Products; (B) providing test programs
or suites amenable for self certification or preliminary assessment of
- ---------- * CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED. CONFIDENTIAL PORTION HAS BEEN
FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.
22
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
certifiability; and/or (C) otherwise supporting certification policies and/or
technology that reasonably enhance certification efficiency and Compliance with
InterTrust Specifications. Any Certification Program(s) established by or for
InterTrust for Business Partners, and all requirements with respect thereto,
shall be applied in a nondiscriminatory and consistent manner with respect to
Universal and all other Persons providing similar products and/or services.
(ii) Certification Requirements. Consistent with the
--------------------------
foregoing, in connection with any Certification Program InterTrust may, in
InterTrust's discretion, require the use of a suite of test software provided by
InterTrust (or an InterTrust delegate) for use by Universal to test and verify
that Universal Products (and/or associated services) are in Compliance with
InterTrust Specifications prior to the first distribution, sale, or other
transfer to, or use by, a Customer of such Universal Products (or associated
services, as applicable) or prior to further testing, as may be appropriate, by
InterTrust or a certifying authority authorized by InterTrust. If use of a test
suite is unsuitable, unavailable, impractical and/or inappropriate under the
circumstances as determined by InterTrust, InterTrust may require submission of
samples to InterTrust, or in InterTrust's discretion an InterTrust delegate, of
such Universal Products (and/or associated services) and associated programs,
parameter data, and other information (in Object Code form unless Source Code is
reasonably necessary) that may be technically material to Compliance with
InterTrust Specifications, so as to allow InterTrust (or an InterTrust delegate)
to perform confidential testing. To the extent that the foregoing procedures do
not, or can not reasonably be anticipated to, provide sufficient information to
verify Compliance, such Certification Program(s) may also require the provision
to InterTrust (or an InterTrust delegate) of full and detailed specifications
and documentation related to Universal's use of InterTrust Technology and
Modified Technology for Universal Products (and/or associated services) being
tested, and any additional Universal Products and materials reasonably required
for certification assessment purposes only, and are reasonably considered
material to Certification Testing. Universal shall comply with any Certification
Program established by InterTrust in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 5.2(c)(ii) and specifically acknowledges that such programs are
important in establishing a secure, trusted environment. All specifications and
documentation provided by Universal in connection with any such Certification
Program(s) shall be authenticated in writing by a Universal Executive, and no
Universal Product and/or associated service shall be made commercially available
hereunder unless it has become a Compliant Product (defined below).
(iii) InterTrust Certification Response. In connection with
---------------------------------
any submissions made to InterTrust or an InterTrust delegate in connection with
a Certification Program, InterTrust (or an InterTrust delegate) will respond in
a reasonably prompt manner following receipt of submitted products and access
to, or receipt of technology supporting, such service, unless commercially
reasonable factors necessitate prolonging such response, and in which case
written notification of such factors shall be provided to Universal. It is
acknowledged that InterTrust's (or an InterTrust delegate's) response time will
depend on factors such as ease of responsibly testing the product and quality of
implementation, including usability, reliability and clearness of code and
relevant documentation. Such response shall be in the form of: (1) a written
approval that the product or service is certified (a "Compliant Product"), such

(i) Basic Requirements. Universal shall distribute
------------------
Universal Products and/or perform associated services only to, and/or for,
Customers for use solely within the Entertainment Field, and only after
Universal shall have first notified and required such Person to become bound by
a form of customer agreement for such Universal Product (and/or associated
service) and appropriate for such Customer (such as whether such Customer is an
end-user or intends to further distribute the Universal Product and/or
associated services, without modification whatsoever) (the "Customer
--------
Agreement(s)"), each such form of Customer Agreement having been provided by
- ------------
Universal, and such Customer having been bound under the terms and conditions of
such Customer Agreement. Such Customer Agreement forms shall have: (1) terms
relating to InterTrust Technology and InterTrust's rights and interests
consistent with and reflective of the terms of this Agreement; and (2) terms
consistent with, reflective of, and based upon the items set forth in Exhibit F
hereto (collectively, the "InterTrust Terms"), such InterTrust Terms shall be
-----------------
signed by an InterTrust Designated Officer and appended to Exhibit F, and
InterTrust may from time to time supplement or amend Exhibit F as provided in
this Section. The approved InterTrust Terms shall be used by Universal in all
Customer Agreements unless and until: (A) Universal requests a modification of
the InterTrust Terms and InterTrust consents in its discretion in writing to
such modification; or (B) InterTrust reasonably requires that Universal alter
the InterTrust Terms where such alteration is needed to protect InterTrust's
rights under this Agreement or to protect, or to prevent or mitigate any
impairment of any part of, its Intellectual Property Rights, for example in view
of court decisions and/or applicable regulations and/or newly available
information. Such alteration to the InterTrust Terms shall be signed by an
InterTrust Designated Officer and attached to Exhibit F in accordance herewith.
Universal agrees and acknowledges that Universal's compliance with this Section
5.2(d) shall constitute a condition precedent to the licenses granted under
Sections 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3 hereof with respect to any such Customer's use of
Universal Products and/or associated services. Universal agrees that to the
extent any of the InterTrust Terms are, or are likely to be, deemed
unenforceable or otherwise ineffective in any relevant jurisdiction, Universal
shall, upon any Universal Executive or General Counsel becoming aware of such
likelihood of being unenforceable or otherwise ineffective, including, for
example notification thereof by InterTrust, substitute new terms provided by
InterTrust concerning such unenforceable or ineffective provision in such
Customer Agreement forms and existing Customer Agreements, and take other
commercially reasonable actions as specified by InterTrust related to such
unenforceability concerns, including reforming, modifying and/or canceling any
such Customer Agreement if reasonably necessary to provide InterTrust with the
legally enforceable protection contemplated hereunder. Universal agrees and
acknowledges that Universal's performance of its obligations hereunder is
necessary for InterTrust to adequately protect its Intellectual Property Rights.
(ii) InterTrust Review of Customer Agreements. Unless an
----------------------------------------
InterTrust Designated Officer, in InterTrust's discretion, expressly and in
writing agrees otherwise, under no circumstances: (1) shall any such review by
InterTrust of InterTrust Terms and/or any term of any proposed Customer
Agreement subsequently be interpreted and/or used as comments of InterTrust to
be relied upon by Universal in any manner whatsoever regarding compliance of
such InterTrust Terms and/or such Customer Agreement with the provisions of this
Agreement; and/or (2) shall any such review or lack of review by InterTrust be
deemed (A) binding on InterTrust or constitute any waiver of any rights
whatsoever hereunder by InterTrust and/or (B) an admission or waiver of any kind
whatsoever under any circumstances whatsoever, except that Universal may rely on
InterTrust Terms attached to Exhibit F hereto as amended from time to time in
accordance herewith.
5.3 Notices and Branding.

(a) Product Notices. Universal shall, in accordance with the
---------------
instructions and/or exemplars and samples attached hereto and/or provided from

protect InterTrust's Intellectual Property Rights. For purposes of this
Agreement, the term "Notices" shall consist of: (i) Intellectual Property
-------
Rights, warranty, and disclaimer notices; and (ii) field of use notices
consistent with the terms of this Agreement. A representative version of such
Notices as of the Effective Date is attached hereto as Exhibit G; and such
Notices may be modified from time to time by InterTrust provided that (1)
written notice thereof is provided to Universal, (2) such modifications are
established and applied in a non-discriminatory and consistent manner with
respect to all Business Partners regarding similar products and/or services, and
(3) the provisions of Section 5.3(e) hereof shall apply thereto. Universal shall
not remove, alter, cover, obfuscate and/or otherwise deface any InterTrust
Trademarks or Notices on any InterTrust Technology or associated documentation,
marketing and advertising materials therefor, and shall not knowingly permit
(including by having a provision in Customer Agreements prohibiting) the
removal, alteration, covering, obfuscation or otherwise defacing of any
InterTrust Trademarks or Notices on any InterTrust Technology or associated
documentation, marketing and advertising materials therefor. Compliance with
subsections (i) and (ii) immediately above (following notice and opportunity to
cure in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.2(a) hereof) shall
constitute a condition precedent to the licenses granted under Sections 2.2,
4.1, 4.2 and/or 4.3 hereof.
(b) InterTrust Branding. Universal shall, in accordance with the
-------------------
provisions of this Section 5.3(b) and InterTrust's reasonable instructions
provided from time to time by InterTrust to Universal, place the InterTrust
brands as specified below on all Universal Products and associated services,
Distributable Documentation, marketing, sales, and advertising materials
therefor, packaging for any physical media containing any such products or
services, on initialization and/or start-up screens of any Universal Products
and/or associated services, or such screens generated by or including the
Universal Products and/or any associated services, except that Universal is not
required to place such InterTrust brands on any physical media surface (e.g.,
CD-ROM surface) which predominantly contains music Content that is not Managed
by InterTrust Technology and where Universal is not providing brand space on
such physical media surface for one or more other technologies that are employed
in support of one or more portions of Content stored on such physical media,
where, for example, such portions do not constitute the principal Content stored
on such physical media. Further, Universal shall also place InterTrust brands on
the primary player interface for any Universal Reader Module, but may place such
InterTrust brands in a secondary, though reasonably prominent, manner and
Universal shall not be required to place such brands on secondary interface
screens, except as may be common industry practice. The InterTrust brands shall
be the symbol or mark denoting Compliance of such Universal Products and/or
associated services with InterTrust Specifications as set forth on Exhibit H
hereto, including the statement that such Universal Products or associated
services are "MetaTrust Certified," "InterTrustworthy," or "InterTrustable" (as
such symbol or mark is selected and may be amended by InterTrust from time to
time consistent with the provisions of Section 5.4(d) hereof). Such branding
shall be located and appear in the manner reasonably specified by InterTrust,
which shall be prominent, although secondary to the brands of Universal, and/or
a Universal Customer on Universal Products and/or services. Such InterTrust
branding shall be prominent, but not unreasonably detract from, or interfere
with, such other brands. Universal shall not remove, alter, cover, obfuscate
and/or otherwise deface any InterTrust brands and shall not knowingly permit
(including by having a provision in Customer Agreements prohibiting) the
removal, alteration, covering, obfuscation or otherwise defacing of any such
InterTrust brands.

the provisions hereof (except where use of InterTrust Trademarks is also
required herein, or other trademarks of Persons are also included in a limited
manner to identify other technology or services associated with such Universal
Product and/or associated service), and in all events in accordance with the
provisions of Section 4.5 and other provisions hereof. As used herein, "Co-
---
Branded" means that the Universal Trademark brand is not materially less
- -------
prominent than the brand of such Universal Customer that also appears on the
Universal Product, and in all events not less than essentially [*] percent
([*]%) of the aggregate presentation and visible area devoted to identification
of brands on a product or service offering (or in related materials) containing
references to any such brand. Any references to Clearinghouse Function services
with, in, or otherwise related to Universal Products that are Application

services shall be promoted in a prominent manner, including most prominent
mention on interfaces directly relating to initiating and/or reporting on

InterTrust Technology) shall contain a graphical icon provided by InterTrust
which is a link to a web page provided by InterTrust on the Internet or the
equivalent thereof on any other public electronic network that is controlled by
and materially promotes InterTrust Technology. At Universal's request and upon

(a) Standards. Universal recognizes the importance of
---------
InterTrust's reputation and goodwill, and of maintaining high, uniformly applied
standards of quality in connection with Universal's use and distribution of
products, applications, and services pursuant hereto bearing InterTrust
Trademarks. Consequently, to maintain InterTrust's interest in and rights to the
InterTrust Trademarks, products, and associated services, and to maintain in the
mind of the public and customers that InterTrust Technology and its components
represent high levels of quality, trust and reliability, Universal shall utilize
the InterTrust Trademarks in accordance with trademark guidelines ("Trademark
---------
Guidelines") (which may include approved samples and exemplars) as may be
- ----------
provided to Universal (and/or reasonably modified) by InterTrust from time to
time in its discretion (and the implementation thereof shall be consistent with
Section 5.4(d)). A copy of the current Trademark Guidelines is included in
Exhibit C hereto. Such Trademark Guidelines shall: (i) include a list of
InterTrust Trademarks and shall specify restrictions on use, if any, including
permitted and prohibited countries and jurisdictions; and (ii) may be revised
from time to time by InterTrust. InterTrust Trademarks, as listed on Exhibit C
hereto (the "Initial InterTrust Marks"), may be modified by InterTrust from time
------------------------
to time to include new Trademarks upon InterTrust's provision to Universal of
reasonable prior written notice ("Added InterTrust Marks") (and the
----------------------
implementation thereof shall be consistent with Section 5.4(d)). Any such Added
InterTrust Marks shall not include any names, logos or marks that are identical
with, substantially similar to, or substantially conflict or create a likelihood
of confusion with and/or significantly undermine the value of, any then-existing
trademark rights of Universal, or trademark rights with respect to any names,
logos or marks then used on any Universal Products, where Universal promptly
notifies InterTrust in writing that such new trademark is believed in good faith
by Universal to so conflict with, or significantly undermine the value of, then-
existing trademarks of Universal.
(b) Trademark Ownership; Contestability. Universal acknowledges
-----------------------------------
and agrees that all uses of InterTrust Trademarks as permitted hereunder, and
the goodwill associated therewith, shall inure solely to the benefit of

thereof or applications with respect thereto, or InterTrust's exclusive

agrees to make available to InterTrust, upon request with reasonable notice,
samples of records and other documentary evidence as is/are retained in the
ordinary course of Universal's business regarding its use of the InterTrust
Trademarks, and Universal shall observe, at minimum, reasonable industry
standards for recording and maintaining such information, including, for
example, information regarding first use of the InterTrust Trademarks by
Universal in each country.
(c) Confusing Similarity. Subject to InterTrust's obligations
--------------------
under Section 5.4(a), Universal shall not use any marks identical with or
confusingly similar to any of the InterTrust Trademarks, or Added InterTrust
Trademarks used in commerce by InterTrust at any time, and shall not register or
attempt to register any marks identical with or confusingly similar to any of
the Initial InterTrust Marks, or Added InterTrust Marks. Universal also shall
not knowingly permit to be used or offered (and shall prohibit in its Customer
Agreements a Customer from using or affixing) any trademark on any Universal
Product (and/or associated service) supplied to such Customer to the extent such
trademark could reasonably be thought to substantially conflict or create a
likelihood of confusion with, and/or be significantly undermined in value by,
any trademarks used by such Customer in connection with any products or services
using any Other Technology.
(d) Prospective Notice. Changes in the InterTrust Trademarks and
------------------
associated standards of quality shall be effective beginning on the date
InterTrust gives Universal written notice thereof and Universal shall, as soon
as reasonably commercially practicable thereafter, implement and/or comply with
such respective portions thereof. In the event a change in the Trademark
Guidelines due to any judgment, agreement pursuant to settlement of a claim, or
other modification of Trademark Guidelines in connection with a potential
InterTrust liability, and upon written notice from InterTrust, Universal will
implement such changes and cease activities non-compliant with such changes in a
more expeditious manner taking into account the gravity of the circumstances.

associated services, Universal acknowledges and agrees that it shall not, at any
time, use (and it shall prohibit in its Customer Agreement any Person whose
trademark appears with Universal Product from using) any trademark or logo used
in commerce to specifically identify, label or market any such products or
associated services, to identify any product or service other than such
Universal Products, and associated services (other than trademarks or logos that
serve to generally identify Universal or to generally identify a Universal
Customer who has co-branding rights hereunder in regards to such Universal
Products and/or associated services).
5.6 Universal Trademarks. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
--------------------
Agreement, InterTrust shall have a royalty free right to use the Universal
Trademarks and other Universal trademarks as selected by Universal in its sole
discretion, solely in connection with any publicity in accordance with Section
8.1 and 8.2, and solely with the advance written approval of Universal, in each
instance, at the sole discretion of Universal. Universal hereby agrees that at
any time after the Joint Press release during the Term, InterTrust may display
Universal's corporate logo on InterTrust's website and/or promotional materials
solely to disclose that Universal is a licensee of InterTrust; provided however
that each such use of the Universal logo, including without limitation the form,
size and placement of such logo on any web page and promotional materials, shall
be subject to the advance written approval of Universal, in its sole discretion.

identical with, substantially similar to, or substantially conflict or create a
likelihood of confusion with and/or significantly undermine the value of any
then-existing trademark rights of InterTrust or Added InterTrust Trademarks,
where InterTrust promptly notifies Universal in writing that such new trademark
is believed in good faith by InterTrust to so conflict or significantly
undermine the value of such then-existing trademarks of InterTrust.

and agrees that all uses of Universal Trademarks as permitted hereunder, and the
goodwill associated therewith, shall inure solely to the benefit of Universal.

trademark guidelines due to any judgment, agreement pursuant to settlement of a
claim, or other modification of trademark guidelines in connection with a
potential Universal liability, and upon written notice from Universal,
InterTrust will implement such changes and cease activities non-compliant with
such changes in a more expeditious manner taking into account the gravity of the
circumstances.

have the right to receive and approve, such approval not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed, any non-English translations made by or for Universal of

any rise in inflation during the later [*] days of such [*] day period
results in a decline in more than [*] ([*]%) of the value of any payment, the
Parties shall promptly and mutually agree on a method for making appropriate
adjustments to such payment to avoid such decline, which agreement shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Universal shall make payments hereunder by

Wall Street Journal ceases or fails to publish such rate of exchange at any time
during this Agreement, the rate of exchange during any such period of cessation
shall be such rate published by Bank of America (San Francisco, California) or a
comparable source as may be reasonably chosen by InterTrust for its Business
Partner and agreed by Universal, such agreement shall not be unreasonably
withheld.
6.5 Taxes. Universal shall pay taxes, including but not limited to
-----
withholding taxes, imposed by any foreign government or any other jurisdictions
outside of the United States, as applicable, on all fees and royalties payable
to InterTrust under this Agreement. To the extent [*] permit InterTrust to
obtain, with minimal burden and expense to InterTrust, a valid [*] (or
functional equivalent) from [*] jurisdictions permitting Universal to make such
fee and royalty payments free of any such [*] jurisdiction [*] taxes, InterTrust
and Universal shall work together in good faith to obtain such [*]. In no event
shall InterTrust receive, in the aggregate, less than the fees and royalties set
forth in Section 6.1, including, for example, where Universal is required by a
[*] jurisdiction to [*] any fee or royalty payment owed to InterTrust by the
amount of [*] taxes. In addition, if InterTrust receives a [*] from any such
[*] jurisdiction for any amount of [*] taxes paid by Universal, InterTrust shall
[*] such amount to Universal. Universal shall be responsible for payment of all
sales, use, value-added and other taxes, duties, and other charges that may fall

shall be responsible for payment of all sales, use, value-added and other taxes

--------
InterTrust hereunder shall bear interest (compounded daily) at the [*] Rate on
an annualized basis as published at the end of a calendar quarter for which such
royalties are due, or such lower rate as may be the maximum rate permitted under
applicable law, from the date upon which payment of the same shall first become
due up to and including the date of payment thereof whether before or after
judgment; and (ii) shall be additionally liable for all costs and expenses of
collection, including, without limitation, reasonable fees for attorneys and
court costs in that connection. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such specified
rate of interest shall not excuse or in any way whatsoever be construed as a
waiver of Universal's express obligation to timely provide any and all payments
due to InterTrust hereunder.

-----
location during the Term of this Agreement for the Audit Period (as defined
below) all books, records, accounts, and other information regarding Universal's

Universal's consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to
examine and audit, during normal business hours at the location where records
are normally kept (but no more than [*] every [*] months), such books,
records, accounts, and other information, and take extracts therefrom or make
copies thereof for the purpose of verifying the correctness of Universal's
reported royalty statements and payments provided by Universal. Universal
shall pay any unpaid delinquent amounts within [*] days of InterTrust's
request. To the extent such examination discloses an annualized underpayment
of more than [*] percent ([*]%) of sums actually due InterTrust and/or an
underpayment of more than [*] dollars (US$[*]), Universal shall fully
reimburse InterTrust, promptly upon demand, for the fees and disbursements due
the auditor for such audit; provided that such prompt payment shall not be in
lieu of any other remedies or rights available to InterTrust hereunder. If an
audit reveals an overpayment, InterTrust shall promptly notify Universal of
such overpayment and Universal and InterTrust will reasonably discuss and
agree upon the methods for applying the amount of such overpayment against
future royalties in the next payment period or successive periods in a manner
reasonably balancing InterTrust's and Universal's commercial circumstances and
interests but such repayment shall be in a manner that does not cause undue
hardship for InterTrust and, in the absence of significant circumstances, any
such applied amount to effect repayment shall not exceed [*] percent ([*]%) of
royalties due in any payment period hereunder. As defined herein, with respect
to a royalty payment made hereunder for an applicable period, "Audit Period"
------------
shall mean [*] years following such royalty payment. Any Claim for delinquent
or inaccurate payment of royalty for any particular quarterly royalty period
shall not be initiated by InterTrust for underpayment (or Universal for
overpayment) shall be commenced within [*] year of the commencement of the
applicable audit; provided that the foregoing limitation shall not apply with
-------- ----
respect to any payment due InterTrust: (a) where an audit has been conducted
and an underpayment determined, InterTrust has informed Universal of such
determined underpayment, and such determined underpayment has not been made in
full to InterTrust; or (b) if Universal and/or its Agents have engaged in any
fraud, gross negligence, material misrepresentation or material omission with
respect to royalty payments and/or reports hereunder. All of the foregoing
shall be subject to statutes of limitation under applicable law.

clearly endorse, to InterTrust's benefit, InterTrust Technology, including
explaining for a minimum of twelve (12) months from the Effective Date that
InterTrust is Universal's preferred rights and distributed trust management
technology partner and Universal's direct and material support for the MetaTrust
Utility. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all further public disclosures by
either Party concerning the subject matter of the Joint Press Release, the
Followup Press Releases and/or Section 8.2 hereof shall be consistent with, and
not exceed the scope of, the content of the Joint Press Release, the Followup
Press Releases, InterTrust Specifications and the other provisions hereof. All
other public disclosures with respect to the terms hereof shall be made in
accordance with Section 9.5.
8.2 Promotion and Marketing. The parties shall jointly participate
-----------------------
in, and from time to time (as they may agree) engage in, promotional, marketing,

8.3 Technology Advisory Committee. To further strategic opportunities
-----------------------------
among the Parties and to encourage feedback concerning InterTrust Technology,
InterTrust currently intends to establish a committee limited to representatives
of: (i) leading companies chosen from certain technology, financial and/or
content industry companies that have close technology strategic relationships
with InterTrust; and (ii) certain leading experts in technology or business
applicable to information and electronic commerce (the "Technology Advisory
-------------------
Committee"). The Technology Advisory Committee shall meet regularly at a forum
- ---------
to be selected by InterTrust for the purpose of discussing and exchanging ideas
for improving the functionality, interoperability, and market acceptability of
InterTrust Technology and related issues pertaining to the electronic commerce
industry. Upon the establishment of the Technology Advisory Committee: (a)
InterTrust shall grant Universal the right to have one seat as a member of the
Technology Advisory Committee; and (b) Universal, at its option, may elect and
notify InterTrust of its designation of an executive (who may be an employee of
Universal) to serve on such committee. Universal may propose that in place of
itself a representative of the Authorized Venture serve on behalf of, and as a
designee of, Universal on the Technology Advisory Committee, such designation
shall be subject to InterTrust's prior written approval. To the extent it
participates, Universal shall: (1) be responsible for all acts and omissions of
the representative in connection with the Technology Advisory Committee; and (2)
pay for all expenses incurred by Universal in connection with participation on
such Committee unless InterTrust pays for expenses of any other Business Partner
member, wherein such other Business Partner member's agreement has overall terms
substantially similar to the terms hereof. Universal's right to a seat on the
Technology Advisory Committee shall be contingent upon (and subject to): (A)
material compliance with generally applicable committee rules, and the terms and
conditions hereof; (B) avoidance of activities by Universal and/or Authorized
Venture (as applicable) that materially conflict with InterTrust's interests, as
determined by InterTrust in its discretion; and (C) continuation of the
Technology Advisory Committee. It is acknowledged that Universal's
representative on the Technology Advisory Committee will be exposed to
InterTrust Confidential Information, and may be exposed to confidential
information of other InterTrust partners.
8.4 [*]

----------------
consideration for providing [*] with material, early access to [*] and highly
confidential [*] and Intellectual Property, and the rights hereunder, [*]

9. CONFIDENTIALITY.
9.1 Classification of Technology and Documents For Confidentiality
--------------------------------------------------------------
Purposes. For ease in complying with the terms of this Section 9, information
and documents to be exchanged by the Parties shall be marked, as appropriate, to
identify the confidential or non-confidential nature of the information, and
information exchanged orally or visually shall be described, as appropriate, to
alert the recipient of the confidential or non-confidential nature of the
information. As regards InterTrust Technology (including Documentation) and
other documents or information provided by InterTrust to Universal in tangible
form, or provided orally or visually hereunder, such information shall be marked
or indicated, as appropriate, as: (i) "Unclassified"; (ii) "Confidential"; or
(iii) "Top Secret," and, as regards Universal information, such information
shall be marked as: (a) "Unclassified" or (b) "Confidential." All InterTrust
Confidential Information and Universal Confidential Information may be referred
to as "Confidential Information." A Party and its authorized personnel shall
------------------------
exercise careful judgment when they are in possession of information of the
other Party that has not been marked or indicated with one of the above-
described classifications. If any information provided by one Party has not
been marked or indicated as above and is not known with certainty by the
receiving Party to have been either publicly released or otherwise classified as
"Unclassified," then such other Party, its employees and any other Person
authorized to possess such information shall treat such information as
"Confidential," except that information provided by InterTrust to Universal
orally or visually regarding security (including tamper resistance and/or
cryptographic key management) aspects of InterTrust Technology which is
thereafter confirmed in writing by InterTrust that such information constitutes
Top Secret Information shall be treated as of the date of receipt of such
writing by Universal as Top Secret Information in accordance with Section 9.2(b)
hereof.
9.2 InterTrust Information.
-----------------------
(a) Confidential Information. To the extent that Universal
------------------------
receives from InterTrust under this Agreement any InterTrust Technology or any
other information or technology that is marked "Confidential" when disclosed in
written form, or indicated as "Confidential" when disclosed orally or visually
("InterTrust Confidential Information"), Universal shall hold such InterTrust
-----------------------------------
Confidential Information in strict confidence and in a manner that is: (i)
sufficiently secure for the character and content of the InterTrust Confidential
Information as reasonably determined by Universal to protect the interests of
InterTrust and the InterTrust Technology environment (and in accordance with the
provisions hereof); and (ii) not less secure than procedures used by Universal
to protect its comparably important information and technology. Universal shall
not in any manner whatsoever, without InterTrust's prior written consent, use,
disclose, provide or otherwise make available any InterTrust Confidential
Information to any person, except to any employee, director or Contractor
("Agent(s)") of Universal, each of whom shall operate under the same
--------
restrictions as Universal (in addition to
- ---------- * CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED. CONFIDENTIAL PORTION HAS BEEN

CONFIDENTIAL
complying with any other provision hereof relating to such agreement).
Furthermore, in each case of disclosure to an Agent of Universal, access to such
InterTrust Confidential Information shall be allowed only to such Agents who
have a reasonable need to know such InterTrust Confidential Information, and
then only to the extent necessary to enable Universal to use InterTrust
Confidential Information solely to exercise its rights or perform its obligation
hereunder and/or as expressly allowed hereunder. Universal shall: (1) require
its Agents having access to any portion of InterTrust Confidential Information
to strictly maintain its confidentiality; and (2) ensure that each such Agent
shall have executed with Universal a written non-disclosure/non-use agreement in
the form set forth on Exhibit I hereto or as subsequently provided by
InterTrust, or Universal's applicable form agreement which shall effectively and
comparably bind such Agent to an agreement of the same scope as InterTrust's
form agreement, and which such form agreement shall be subject to InterTrust's
reasonable prior written approval which approval will not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed. Upon such approval, the form agreement shall replace the
relevant portion of Exhibit I. In the case of a Contractor, such provisions
shall be in the Contractor Agreement. Universal shall notify InterTrust promptly
in writing of any unauthorized disclosure or other misuse or misappropriation of
any portions of the InterTrust Confidential Information upon any Universal
Executive becoming aware of such unauthorized disclosure or other such misuse or
misappropriation. Universal shall use reasonable efforts to maintain a log of
the Agents accessing and the location of all originals and copies of material
excerpts of technical InterTrust Confidential Information. Universal shall be
fully responsible for any breach of Universal's obligations under this Agreement
by an Agent to whom such InterTrust Confidential Information has been disclosed.
Subject to the provisions of Section 9.4, any obligation of Universal to keep
InterTrust Confidential Information in confidence shall expire thirty-six (36)
months after disclosure of such information by InterTrust to Universal, except
with respect to InterTrust Technology, in which case such obligation shall
continue in perpetuity.
(b) Top Secret Information. In order to protect InterTrust's
----------------------
rights, the rights of InterTrust licensees, and the secure operation and/or
interoperability and reputation of InterTrust implementations, Universal shall
treat any InterTrust Technology or other confidential information that it may
receive that is either marked "Top Secret - Do Not Copy" or similar legend
containing at least the words "Top Secret" (and at least on the cover page or in
comparable other places) when disclosed in written form, or indicated as "Top
Secret" when disclosed orally or visually and identified in writing to a
Universal Executive as Top Secret within thirty (30) days of such oral or visual
disclosure ("Top Secret Information") in a manner not less secure than
----------------------
Universal's most secret information and, in all events in a manner sufficient to
ensure the security of such Top Secret Information, given such great sensitivity
of such Top Secret Information. Universal shall allow disclosure of such Top
Secret Information to no more than an aggregate of [*] designated
individual employees or approved Contractors of Universal and/or Authorized
Ventures (as such twelve individuals may be designated by Universal) at any one
time, each of whom has a direct need to know such information or be exposed to
such Top Secret Information (as agreed in each case by InterTrust in its
reasonable discretion) and then only to the extent necessary for Universal to
use Top Secret Information solely to exercise its rights and perform its
obligations under this Agreement. Universal shall not substitute any employee
designated to receive Top Secret Information with another employee, unless such
designated employee's employment with Universal has been terminated or such
person is no longer able to serve the intended role or is no longer
participating in the business projects conducted using InterTrust Technology,
provided that Universal shall use reasonable efforts to maintain continuity and
- -------- ----
minimize changes of such designated employees and no more than an aggregate of
[*] designated individual employees shall have been authorized within
any forty-eight (48) month period (in the absence of approval by an InterTrust
Designated Officer). None of such employees shall receive a disclosure of any
such Top Secret Information until: (i) such employee executes an InterTrust Top
Secrecy Agreement (in the form set forth in Exhibit I hereto or as subsequently
provided by InterTrust) covering such information and exposure; and (ii) an
executed copy of such agreement is received by InterTrust, with return receipt
provided to Universal, which such receipt may be provided by fax communication
if so requested in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Universal and
Universal employees described above shall make no physical embodiments
whatsoever of Top Secret Information (for example, any reproduction or copy of
Top Secret Information, including descriptive notes containing any Top Secret
Information) without the prior express written authorization of an InterTrust
Designated Officer, nor shall Universal or such Universal employees disclose any
Top Secret Information to any Person (including to any Contractor), except as
described in this Section 9.2(b). Upon Universal's prior written request,
InterTrust will, where reasonable and appropriate in InterTrust's discretion
given the nature of the Top Secret Information, provide Universal with
additional copies of the Top Secret Information up to a limit of [*] copies.
If any Universal

35
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
Executive becomes aware that any Top Secret Information has been disclosed or
treated other than as set forth in this Section 9.2(b), and/or as specified in a
Top Secrecy Agreement, Universal shall immediately inform InterTrust of such
occurrence and take immediate steps to correct such compromise. Universal shall
maintain a log of the employees accessing and location of all originals and
other provided copies of all Top Secret Information. Universal shall be fully
responsible for any breach by any Universal employee of this Agreement related
to the unauthorized use or disclosure of Top Secret Information.
9.3 Universal Information. To the extent that InterTrust receives
---------------------
Confidential Information of Universal that is either marked "Confidential" when
disclosed in written form or indicated as "confidential" when disclosed orally
or visually ("Universal Confidential Information") under this Agreement,
----------------------------------
InterTrust shall hold such Universal Confidential Information in strict
confidence and in a manner that is: (i) sufficiently secure for the character
and content of the Universal Confidential Information as reasonably determined
by InterTrust to protect the interests of Universal (and in accordance with the
provisions hereof); and (ii) not less secure than procedures used by InterTrust
to protect its comparably important information and technology. Except as to
the disclosure by Universal of the Modified Technology or such disclosure
inherent in the Certification Testing of Universal Products and/or any
associated services pursuant hereto, and only to the extent expressly specified
by InterTrust Specifications, Universal shall not disclose or otherwise provide
or make available to InterTrust any Universal Confidential Information or other
third Person confidential or proprietary information comprising, containing or
directly concerning any Other Technology), without first acquiring written
approval from an InterTrust Designated Officer. InterTrust shall not in any
manner whatsoever, without Universal's prior written consent, use, disclose,
provide or otherwise make available any Universal Confidential Information to
any person, except an Agent of InterTrust each of whom shall operate under the
same restrictions as InterTrust (in addition to complying with any other
provision hereof relating to such Agreement). Furthermore, in each case of
disclosure to an Agent of InterTrust, access to such Universal Confidential
Information shall be allowed only to Agents who have a reasonable need to know
such Universal Confidential Information and only to the extent necessary to
enable InterTrust to use Universal Confidential Information to exercise its
rights and perform its obligations hereunder and/or as expressly allowed
hereunder. InterTrust shall: (a) require its Agents having access to any
portion of Universal Confidential Information to strictly maintain its
confidentiality; and (b) ensure that each such Agent shall have executed with
InterTrust a written non-disclosure/non-use agreement provided by Universal, or
InterTrust's applicable form agreement which shall effectively and comparably
bind such Agent to an agreement of the same scope as Universal's form agreement,
and which such form agreement shall be subject to Universal's reasonable prior
written approval. Upon such approval, the form agreement will replace the
relevant portion of Exhibit I. InterTrust shall notify Universal promptly in
writing of any unauthorized disclosure or other misuse or misappropriation of
any portions of the Universal Confidential Information. InterTrust shall use
reasonable efforts to maintain a log of the Agents accessing and the location of
all originals and copies of material excerpts of technical Universal
Confidential Information. InterTrust shall be fully responsible for any breach
of InterTrust's obligations under this Agreement by an Agent to whom such
Universal Confidential Information has been disclosed. Any obligation of
InterTrust to keep Universal information in confidence shall expire thirty-six
(36) months after disclosure of such information by Universal to InterTrust
provided that InterTrust confidentiality obligations hereunder with respect to
any Source Code provided to InterTrust in connection with any Certification
Program shall continue in perpetuity.
9.4 Exceptions. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 9.1, 9.2
----------
and 9.3 above, the confidentiality restrictions herein shall not apply to
information that the recipient thereof can demonstrate: (i) is or becomes
generally known to the public through no breach of any of these obligations, as
of the date such information becomes so known; (ii) is or shall have been
independently developed by such recipient by employees who had no access to such
information; or (iii) is or shall have been rightfully received, with no
obligation of confidentiality or non-use, by such recipient from any Person
(other than as a result of another Person's breach of an obligation of
confidentiality to the discloser of such information), as of the date such
information is so received. In the case of Top Secret Information, however, the
availability to Universal of information that is substantially equivalent to Top
Secret Information based upon subsection (i), (ii) and/or (iii) above shall not,
in any manner, diminish Universal's obligations with respect to the Top Secret
Information provided by InterTrust to Universal (and all copies or derivatives
thereof), and Universal shall be prohibited from further disclosing to
36
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
third parties any such InterTrust Top Secret Information in Universal's
possession in accordance with the terms hereof; except that nothing contained
herein shall be construed to limit Universal's rights outside of this Agreement
with respect to information obtained through the foregoing subsection (i), (ii)
and/or (iii) and such separate information shall not be deemed Top Secret
Information for purposes of this Agreement. In the event any Party is required
by law, regulation or order of a court or other authority of competent
jurisdiction to disclose the other Party's Confidential Information or Top
Secret Information (as applicable), such Party shall notify such other Party as
promptly as possible, and shall, upon such other Party's request and expense,
reasonably assist in challenging or restricting the scope of such required
disclosure. Top Secret Information may be disclosed only upon InterTrust's prior
written approval; provided that if Universal notifies InterTrust that it has
-------- ----
received an order from a court of competent jurisdiction requiring disclosure of
Top Secret Information: (i) Universal shall use reasonable efforts to resist
disclosure (including filing motions to limit disclosure to in camera
inspection); and (ii) if despite resisting such disclosure Universal is required
to produce such Top Secret Information and faces material consequences should it
refuse to so comply, Universal shall not be construed to have breached this
Agreement by disclosing such required information. In all events, a Party
subject to such required disclosure shall disclose only such information that is
strictly required pursuant thereto and no further information and shall have
provided InterTrust notices of such events on a frequent basis as here relevant
(the "Top Secret Disclosure Procedures").
--------------------------------
9.5 Confidentiality of Agreement and Publicity. Except as otherwise
------------------------------------------
provided in Sections 8.1, 9.4 and this Section 9.5 hereof, neither Party hereto
shall at any time, without the prior written consent of the other Party,
disclose the specific details of the terms and conditions of this Agreement to
any Person, other than: (i) Agents having a substantial need to know; (ii) as
required by law, for example, in connection with any initial public offering of
securities pursuant to a registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (an "IPO"); (iii) investors holding approximately one percent (1%) or
---
more of the outstanding equity shares of such Party prior to an IPO and having
no reasonably anticipated conflict of interest with the disclosing party; (iv)
potential investors who may purchase approximately one percent (1%) or more of
the outstanding equity shares of such Party prior to an IPO and having no
reasonably anticipated conflict of interest with the other Party; and (v)
financial institutions, professional advisors and/or other consultants having a
reasonable need to know and having no reasonably anticipated conflict of
interest with the other Party. In each and every case set forth above, the
receiving Person shall be bound by a confidentiality agreement sufficient in
scope to protect the Parties' rights and interests hereunder. Notwithstanding
the above, Universal may provide to potential partners (including AT&T and MEI)
and substantial equity investors of the Development Venture or Clearinghouse
Venture an opportunity to review, or to obtain, one copy (1) each of this
Agreement which copy has been previously redacted by mutual agreement of the
Parties to exclude terms that are not directly relevant for evaluation of
whether to participate in such venture (including, for example, with respect to
potential participants in the Development Venture, licenses for Clearinghouse
Functions in Section 4.3, provisions regarding most favored treatment regarding
access to technology in Section 3.1, InterTrust Specifications in Section 5.2(b)
and/or grant-back of licenses in Section 7.3, payment terms in Section 6.1(a),
and partnering commitments provisions of Section 8.4 (except that Universal may
replicate (or, at Universal's option, expand) such partnering commitment
provisions in the sublicense or delegation agreement to the Authorized Venture
pursuant to the terms hereof); provided that such Person: (1) has a need to know
-------- ----
and has no reasonable anticipated conflict of interest with InterTrust (except
that [*] and [*] shall not be deemed to have a material conflict with
InterTrust with respect to their Pre-Authorized Other Technology), (2) is bound
by a confidentiality agreement sufficient in scope to protect InterTrust's
rights and interests hereunder including restricting the disclosure of the
contents of such copy and further from copying or reproducing such redacted copy
and from using this Agreement or the information contained herein for any
purpose other than for the purpose of evaluating whether to participate in the
Development Venture or Clearinghouse Venture, as applicable (including in
connection with any discussions or negotiations with InterTrust concerning a
direct license relationship with InterTrust); and (3) shall be required in
writing to promptly return such copy to Universal, and Universal shall seek and
use all reasonable efforts to effect such return, if such potential partner or
equity investor ceases to be a potential partner or equity investor, or does not
consummate a transaction in the Development Venture or Clearinghouse Venture
within a reasonable period of time, or if such potential partner or equity
investor develops a material conflict of interest with InterTrust. Without the
prior written authorization of an InterTrust Designated Officer, no more than
twelve (12) copies of such redacted versions of this Agreement shall be
distributed in the aggregate; provided that a summary document concerning the

Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.5: (a)
either Party may publicly discuss or otherwise disclose in general terms that an
agreement exists between the Parties to develop products and services using
InterTrust Technology, but may provide no further material details as to the
specific activities and commitments of the other Party, without the prior
written consent of such other Party; and (b) either Party may make such
disclosures to the extent permitted under this Section 9.5 or Section 8.4in
order to perform its obligations or exercise its rights under this Agreement.
9.6 Confidentiality of Payments, Audit and Certification Testing. All
---------------------------
information received during an audit or pursuant to a Certification Program as
provided herein, all information concerning Certification Testing results
(including information received pursuant to any Certification Testing), and all
payment information received pursuant to this Agreement, shall be treated as
confidential information pursuant to Sections 9.2(a) and 9.3 hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, information concerning whether a Universal
Product or any associated services being disseminated or used in commerce is
Compliant with InterTrust Specifications ("Compliance Information") shall not be
----------------------
treated as Universal Confidential Information if such Universal Product and/or

Person where such Claim (to the extent directly related to such modifications or
combination) would have been avoided in the absence of such modification or
combination; or (2) the use of any InterTrust Technology in any manner
inconsistent with InterTrust Specifications or Documentation where such Claim
(to the extent directly related to such inconsistency) would have been avoided
in the absence of such inconsistent use.
(b) Universal Indemnification. Universal shall indemnify, defend
-------------------------
and hold InterTrust, its employees, agents, officers and directors (the
"InterTrust Parties") harmless from any and all Claims or portions thereof to
------------------
the extent awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a

licenses hereunder, except where such Claims (1) would have arisen solely out of
InterTrust Technology as directly provided to Universal by InterTrust in the
absence of Universal activities hereunder other than the development and
distribution of solely InterTrust Technology, or (2) arose out of modifications
to Universal Products which were expressly required by InterTrust Specifications
and the implementations of such modifications have been expressly approved in
writing by an InterTrust Designated Officer or an InterTrust delegate acting
under the direction of InterTrust pursuant to a Certification Program as set
forth in Section 5.2; and further, except to the extent Universal is indemnified
by InterTrust under Section 11.1(a) hereof.
(c) Third Party Claims. In case any Claim is brought by a third

Person for which Claim indemnification is or may be provided hereunder the
indemnified Party shall provide prompt written notice thereof to the other

Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing (and any other section of this Agreement),
it is understood and acknowledged that InterTrust need not under any
circumstance provide Top Secret Information related to the security capabilities
of InterTrust Technology to any Person except nothing in the immediately
foregoing shall apply to the Top Secret Disclosure Procedures in Section 9.4

Claim to be entered into by the other Party and to reasonable approval of a
settlement to the extent such Party's rights would be directly and materially
impaired thereby. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event of any Claim or
threatened Claim that the InterTrust Technology infringes any third Person's
Intellectual Property Rights: (1) upon Universal's request, InterTrust will use
[*] to [*] the [*] or [*] for Universal to [*] and otherwise [*] in
accordance with the terms and conditions hereof such portion of [*] on [*]
reasonably acceptable to both Parties, each in the exercise of its own
discretion (except that Universal shall be solely responsible for paying all

exercise its sole discretion with respect to reasonable approval of any terms
relating to [*] of any such [*]); or (2) at InterTrust's sole discretion,
InterTrust may use [*] to [*], [*] or [*] any such [*] of the [*], as the case
may be, so as to [*] of the [*] while maintaining [*] of such [*] or [*] of
the InterTrust Technology that are material to Universal's then-current use of
such technology. If options (1) and (2) are not [*] in each Party's reasonable
discretion: (A) Universal shall have the right, as its sole and exclusive
remedy in connection with such Claim, threatened Claim or action of InterTrust
in accordance with this Section 11.1(c), to terminate, without any liability,
the licenses granted hereunder, so long as such Claim or threatened Claim or
action of InterTrust relates materially to the performance of InterTrust
Technology as used by Universal; and (B)
- ---------- * CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED. CONFIDENTIAL PORTION HAS BEEN

CONFIDENTIAL
InterTrust shall have the right to, if it has a material risk of liability from
Universal's or its sublicensees' continued use of such portion of InterTrust
Technology (and further has not succeeded in obtaining or modifying the
technology in accordance with the foregoing subparagraphs (1) and (2)),
terminate, without any liability, the licenses granted hereunder, and any such
termination shall be upon thirty (30) days prior written notice. If at any time
during the Term InterTrust grants to any third Person in the Entertainment Field
in connection with a license to InterTrust Technology [*].
11.2 Cumulative Remedies. Except as expressly provided herein to the
-------------------
contrary, no remedy made available to a Party by any of the provisions of this
Agreement is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each and every
remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given
hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or
otherwise.
11.3 Equitable Remedies. Each Party agrees that it may be impossible
------------------
or inadequate to measure and calculate a Party's damages from any breach of the
covenants set forth in Sections 4.5, 5, 6.7, 7, 8.4, 9, 11.1(c) solely with
respect to the obligation to defend, 13.3(a), 14.5 and 14.8 hereof. Accordingly,
each Party agrees that if it or any of such Party's Agents thereof breach or
threaten a breach or anticipatory repudiation of any of such provisions, in
addition to any other right or remedy available, the other Party shall be
entitled: (i) to obtain an injunction against the breaching Party and such
Party's Agents thereof, from a court of competent jurisdiction restraining such
breach or threatened breach; and (ii) to specific performance of any such
provision of this Agreement; provided that the foregoing shall not relieve such
other Party from any legal requirement to show irreparable harm and likelihood
of success on the merits.
12. EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES.
EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING SENTENCE, NEITHER PARTY SHALL
BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY, ITS AGENTS, AFFILIATES, CUSTOMERS, OR ANY OTHER
PERSONS, FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,
ARISING OUT OF THE BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT OTHER THAN UNDER SECTIONS 7, AND 9
AS PROVIDED IN THE IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING SENTENCE. NOTWITHSTANDING THE
IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SENTENCE, A PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR
ALL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES SUFFERED OR INCURRED BY THE OTHER PARTY IN THE FOLLOWING CIRCUMSTANCES:
(i) THE MISAPPROPRIATION OF TRADE SECRETS OF THE DAMAGED PARTY BY THE LIABLE

ANY CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION OR TOP SECRET INFORMATION DISCLOSED IN WRITING AND
MARKED AS CONFIDENTIAL OR TOP SECRET IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 9 OR CONFIRMED
IN WRITING AS CONFIDENTIAL OR TOP SECRET (SUCH AS AFTER ORAL DISCLOSURE), BUT
SOLELY WHERE SUCH BREACH OCCURRED AFTER SUCH CONFIRMATION OR MARKING IN WRITING;
OR (iii) WILLFUL AND BAD FAITH BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT OF ALL MATERIAL
OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.
13. TERM AND TERMINATION.
13.1 Agreement. This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date
---------
and, unless and until terminated earlier in accordance herewith, shall continue
for a period of [*] years (the "Initial Term"). At the end of such Initial
------------
Term, if and only if Universal shall have at all times during the Initial Term
(except for the initial [*] month period thereof) treated InterTrust Technology
as its [*] on a consistently uninterrupted manner in all material respects, this
Agreement shall continue for [*] and solely for [*] Universal continues to treat
InterTrust

CONFIDENTIAL
Technology as its [*] (the "Term"). If at any time Universal, by decision of any
----
of its executive management with authority to make such decision, intentionally
ceases, or decides to cease and takes material steps towards ceasing, treating
InterTrust Technology as its [*], Universal shall provide InterTrust with
reasonably prompt written notice of such actions or decision and, if the Initial
Term has expired InterTrust may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days
prior written notice. It is acknowledged and agreed that Universal will have the
opportunity to cure any interruption in treatment of InterTrust Technology as
its [*]--so long as such interruption was not the result of an intentional
decision of any of its executive management directed at ceasing the treatment of
InterTrust Technology as Universal's [*] -- in the same manner, and in
accordance with the timing and procedures set forth in Section 13.2(a) after its
receipt of any written notice from InterTrust describing in reasonable detail
the nature of any interruption known to InterTrust officers (the "InterTrust
----------
Preferred Cure Notice"). In the event Universal fails to cure such interruption
- ---------------------
as specified previously above and reinstate the treatment of InterTrust
Technology as the [*] in accordance with the foregoing and the cure provisions
of Section 13.2(a), Universal shall be deemed to have failed to treat InterTrust
Technology as its [*] for purposes of this Section 13.1 and the Initial Term
shall not be extended or if the Initial Term is then already extended InterTrust
may immediately terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days prior written
notice.
13.2 Events of Termination. This Agreement and the licenses granted
---------------------
hereunder shall be subject to termination upon the occurrence of any of the
following events and such other provisions hereof expressly so stating (each, an
"Event of Termination"):
--------------------
(a) If either Party materially defaults on any of its material
obligations under this Agreement (or a Customer Agreement, as applicable) the
non-defaulting Party (or InterTrust in the case of a breach by a Universal
Customer) shall have the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, to initiate
a termination procedure under this Agreement by written notice (sent in
accordance with the provisions of Section 14.6 hereof) describing with
reasonable specificity the nature of the default and requiring that such default
be cured (the "Default Notice"), wherein such Default Notice shall automatically
--------------
result in termination unless: (i) within [*] calendar days of receiving such
Default Notice (the "Cure Period"), the defaulting Party remedies the default;
-----------
or (ii) in the case of a default that cannot with earnest due diligence be cured
within the Cure Period, the defaulting Party institutes, by the date upon which
one half of the Cure Period shall have expired, steps necessary to remedy the
default and thereafter employs best efforts to diligently prosecute the same to
completion no later than [*] months from the date of such Default Notice.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Cure Period associated with a breach of
payment obligations in accordance with Section 6 shall be [*] days.
Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, a Party shall have the right both to
immediately terminate this Agreement and to injunctive relief as set forth in
Section 11.3 in the event the other Party or any of its Agents engages in any:
(1) intentional, material unauthorized use of technology outside of the rights
granted hereunder (or, in the case of Universal, any unauthorized disclosure of
information marked or confirmed by InterTrust in accordance herewith as
InterTrust Top Secret Information) and/or (2) willful, material unauthorized
disclosure of Confidential Information or Top Secret Information, provided that
such was conducted in intentional violation of this Agreement and where, in the
case of InterTrust any InterTrust Designated Officer or other executive manager,
and in the case of Universal any Universal Executive, had knowledge of such
intended unauthorized use or disclosure prior to the occurrence of any such
acts. The non-defaulting Party agrees to use reasonable efforts to advise the
defaulting Party after the occurrence of a default by the defaulting Party of
any material obligation under this Agreement promptly upon such non-defaulting
Party's officers or other executive management becoming aware of such default.
In the event a non-defaulting Party fails to provide a Default Notice within [*]
days after officers or other executive management of such non-defaulting Party
(and in the case of InterTrust, executive management including the Chairman
and/or President, and General Counsel and/or VP, Legal), and in the case of
Universal, executive management including one or more Universal Executives) have
reviewed facts regarding a default (including any correspondence between the
Parties) that justifies termination of this Agreement and has determined to
commence termination of this Agreement under this subparagraph (a) as such
determination is represented in a written statement or memorandum, such non-
defaulting Party shall be deemed to have waived its right of termination of this
Agreement under this subparagraph (a); provided that such waiver shall not
-------- ----
limit any right to recover damages or other rights or remedies of such non-
defaulting Party under this Agreement or at law or in equity.

immediately terminate this Agreement in its discretion in the event: (i)
Universal fails (1) to generally distribute any Universal Products within [*]
months from the date InterTrust first delivers the Commerce 1.1 to Universal,
and/or makes no release of any Universal Product materially commercially
available for any consecutive [*] month period during this Agreement, provided
--------
that such time period shall be extended by any period
- ----
in which (A) there exists a Material Defect in the InterTrust Technology that
materially impedes Universal's development and distribution efforts, but only
for the period from the date that Universal documents such defect as provided in
Section 3.2(b) hereof to the date InterTrust has reasonably corrected or
mitigated such defect as provided in Section 3.2(b), or (B) there exists a delay
in InterTrust's response with respect to certification of Universal Product as
stipulated in Section 5.2(c)(iii), (2) after the Initial Support Period to
timely make payments due under this Agreement on three or more occasions over an
[*] month period where InterTrust has provided to Universal a written warning
notice after the second occasion that any further failure to timely make
payments will be subject to InterTrust's termination hereunder, or (3) engages
in conduct directly contrary to a partnering relationship by providing, or
positioning itself as a provider, to multiple third Persons (other than its
distributed labels who distribute music under the Universal Trademarks) of any
Special Advanced Technology (other than InterTrust Technology) wherein such
Special Advanced Technology has been developed specifically by and/or for
Universal (and provided that the foregoing provisions of this subparagraph (3)
shall not be construed to include licensed activities as set forth herein); or
(ii) any litigation is initiated against any Person entitled to the benefits of
the licenses under Section 7.3 arising out of or alleging infringement of any
intellectual property right of Universal or its Controlled affiliates, or
Persons acting under Universal's or such Controlled affiliate's direction and/or
control, where such intellectual property right would have been licensed under
Section 7.3 hereof had such intellectual property right been held by Universal;
and
(d) By Universal by providing written notice to InterTrust
within the [*] days of the date which is [*] month after the Effective Date
where: (i) the Commerce 1.1 of InterTrust Technology contains [*] that render
such technology [*] and from being [*] in a software-only implementation as
would be reasonable for a distributed peer-to-peer software instantiation
("[*]"); and (ii) Universal has provided InterTrust written notice of such [*]
---
in the same manner as set forth in Section 3.2(b) as early as possible after
discovery of such [*] and InterTrust has been given the opportunity to review
and undertake the cure procedures under Section 13.2(a). The foregoing right of
termination shall terminate and no longer be exercisable if at any time
Universal has transferred any Universal Product to third Persons (other than
Contractors and Persons participating in a non-commercial beta test for no
monetary remuneration). Upon the exercise of the foregoing termination right
under this subparagraph (d), notwithstanding any contrary provisions contained
herein, any and all rights and licenses of Universal under this Agreement
(including the rights and licenses under Section 13.3(b)) shall immediately
terminate.
13.3 Effect of Termination.

-------- ------- ----
pursuant to the then-existing Customer Agreements solely for Universal Products
shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with the terms thereof
(provided that such licenses do not provide any rights to such end-users with
respect to Clearinghouse Functions, other than as expressly provided hereunder).
Each Party shall deliver to the other Party within thirty (30) days from the
date of termination of this Agreement all copies of all materials protected as
Confidential Information or Top Secret Information under this Agreement,

14. MISCELLANEOUS.
14.1 Governing Law. This Agreement, any and all actions arising
-------------
out of or in any manner affecting the interpretation of this Agreement, and any
actions between the Parties involving the InterTrust Technology, any InterTrust
Property and/or any Confidential or Top Secret Information ("Party Disputes")
--------------
shall be governed solely by, and construed solely in accordance with, the laws
of the United States of America and: (i) the substantive and procedural law
(excluding that body of law involving conflicts of law) of the Commonwealth of
Virginia, where any claim, counterclaim or defense in such Party Dispute
involves a material issue based in whole or in part on, or concerning (including
where a decision as to such issue could directly affect the validity,
enforceability, ownership, scope or interpretation of any of the Party's
Intellectual Property Rights) any (a) InterTrust Confidential Information or Top
Secret Information, (b) InterTrust Property (as defined in Section 7.1), and/or
(c) Intellectual Property Rights (an "IP Dispute(s)"); and (ii) the substantive
-------------
and procedural law (excluding that body of law relating to conflict of laws) of
the State of California for Party Disputes that do not involve an IP Dispute,
unless trial and/or pre-trial preceding in such Party Dispute that does not
involve an IP Dispute

are joined and/or consolidated with an IP Dispute proceeding in accordance with
Section 14.2(iii), in which case the provisions of the immediately proceeding
subparagraph (i) shall apply to such Party Dispute. The Parties hereby
acknowledge and agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the
International Sale of Goods shall not apply to this Agreement. To the extent
permitted by law, the provisions of this Agreement shall supersede any
provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted or made applicable to this
Agreement in any competent jurisdiction.
14.2 Venue and Jurisdiction. The Parties recognize the
----------------------
importance to: (i) InterTrust of having any litigation between the Parties
involving an IP Dispute adjudicated in the Federal District Court for the
Eastern District of Virginia (Alexandria Division) (or any direct successor
thereto), or, if required by law, the Commonwealth courts located in Alexandria,
Virginia (the "Virginia Venue"); and (ii) Universal of having any litigation
--------------
between the Parties not involving an IP Dispute adjudicated in the Federal
District Courts in California (or any direct successor thereto), or, if required
by law, such state courts there located (the "California Venue"). Therefore, in
----------------
connection with any litigation between the Parties involving an IP Dispute, each
Party hereby unconditionally and irrevocably consents to the exclusive
jurisdiction and venue in the Virginia Venue, and in any litigation between the
Parties not involving an IP Dispute, each Party hereby unconditionally and
irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the California Venue as
chosen by the plaintiff with respect to such claim. Consistent with the
immediately foregoing, each Party irrevocably: (i) waives any objection and
covenants that it shall refrain from making any motion concerning personal
jurisdiction, venue, transfer, or convenience of the Parties with respect to a
Party Dispute filed in said courts; (ii) consents to the service of process of
said courts in any matter relating to this Agreement by the mailing of process
by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, at the addresses specified in
the Agreement (or if necessary, the appointment of a registered agent for
acceptance of service of process and/or other notices provided for under this
Agreement); and (iii) agrees that if any pending actions between the Parties are
required to be joined and/or consolidated in any manner (and one or more of such
actions involve an IP Dispute), the Virginia Venue shall be the venue that
exclusively presides over such joined and/or consolidated actions.
14.3 Compliance with Law and Export Controls. The Parties shall
---------------------------------------
at all times comply with all applicable U.S. and foreign federal, state, and
local laws, rules and regulations relating to the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement and to the InterTrust Technology Products and
Modified Technology. Additionally, Universal acknowledges that because one or
more aspects of the InterTrust Technology Products is likely to be subject to
the export control laws, regulations and requirements of the United States and
other jurisdictions, Universal Products likely will require export and other
approvals as well. InterTrust has obtained export approval concerning
implementations of Commerce 1.1, and with respect to additional InterTrust
Technology products, shall use commercially reasonable efforts at InterTrust's
expense and discretion to obtain additional license or other approvals, if any,
that may be required for InterTrust to make the InterTrust Technology and/or
Documentation or information relating thereto generally available
internationally. Universal shall use commercially reasonable efforts, at
Universal's expense, to comply with all applicable laws (including applicable
U.S. export control laws and regulations) and use commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain all necessary governmental consents and approvals in
connection with the distribution of or export or re-export of the Universal
Products (as well as other technology as expressly permitted hereunder) that
contain any part of the InterTrust Technology or Modified Technology in
accordance herewith. The Parties expressly agree that any failure to obtain or
any delay in obtaining such approval as to InterTrust Technology or in
connection with any Universal Product shall not relieve either Party from its
obligations under this Agreement.

-------------------------
amended, modified or supplemented by the Parties in any manner, except by an
instrument in writing signed by the President or Chairman of InterTrust and a

InterTrust shall not assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder
without Universal's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, InterTrust and/or
Universal shall be entitled to assign or transfer such rights or

a period no less than six (6) months from the consummation of such merger or
sale, continue to actively and in good faith support InterTrust Technology in a
manner consistent with the practices of InterTrust immediately prior to a merger

to perform, and such inability to perform, so caused, shall not make such Party
liable to the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any such
cause delays either Party's performance of any of its material obligations under
this Agreement, the other Party may suspend its performance under this Agreement
of the period such delay continues. This Agreement may be terminated by notice

Trademark Guidelines for Use of Trademarks of InterTrust Technologies
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Corporation
-----------
1. These Trademark Guidelines ("Guidelines") are provided pursuant to the
Technology Development, Marketing and License Agreement (the "Agreement")
between Universal Music Group ("Licensee") and InterTrust Technologies
Corporation ("InterTrust"). The trademarks of InterTrust Technologies
Corporation as listed on Exhibit C (as may be amended or supplemented from
time to time by InterTrust) ("InterTrust Trademarks") are valuable
intellectual property of InterTrust that identify genuine technology and/or
products licensed by InterTrust. Since the InterTrust Trademarks signify a
high standard of quality and reliability, InterTrust must maintain control
over how each of the InterTrust Trademarks is used. Therefore, these
Guidelines and the provisions of applicable sections of the Agreement must
be followed in their entirety in order to preserve and protect the
InterTrust Trademarks.
2. The InterTrust Trademarks must be used on products and/or services that
include InterTrust licensed technology or other material ("Licensed
Material") and/or that have been certified as InterTrustworthy by
InterTrust Certification Program; as provided for in the Agreement. The
InterTrust Trademarks must also be used on associated initial computer
screens, packaging, collateral documentation, manuals advertising, and
promotional materials. The InterTrust Trademarks may never be used on or in
connection with any other products or services, except as expressly
provided for under the Agreement.
3. At any place where a InterTrust Trademark is used, it must be symbolically
indicated that the InterTrust Trademark used therein is a legal trademark
belonging to InterTrust. This can be done by (1) indicating the "TM" symbol
at the upper right corner of the trademark for an unregistered InterTrust
Trademark and indicating the circled "R" (R) symbol at the upper right
corner of the trademark for a registered trademark, and (2) appending an
"*" after the InterTrust Trademark and placing the appropriate statement
selected from the following on a suitably noticeable area (which shall
generally occur near the copyright notice in text or on screen) of each
such copy:
(For an unregistered InterTrust Trademark)
*___________________ (insert InterTrust Trademark) is a trademark in
the USA and other countries of InterTrust Technologies Corporation and
is used by ________________________ (insert licensee name) under
license.
(For a registered InterTrust Trademark)
*____________________ (insert InterTrust Trademark) is a trademark in
the USA and other countries of InterTrust Technologies Corporation
(Reg. U.S. Pat. and Tm. Off.) and is used by _________________ (insert
licensee name) under license.
Some countries may require that a translated version of these above
statements be used. Licensee must comply with any such local laws.
4. InterTrust Trademarks may not be used in any manner that may cause
confusion as to the source of origin of products and/or services. As a
general matter, the only InterTrust trademark that need directly and
evidently appear on the product or service is a mark indicating compliance
with InterTrust's Specifications, as designated by InterTrust - such as the
mark "InterTrustworthy".
C-2
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
Under no circumstances may InterTrust Trademarks be used or identified on a
product or in a business name or identifier of a business, InterTrust, product,
or service not connected with licensee's products incorporating the Licensed
Material. No variations, compounds, or imitations of the InterTrust Trademarks
may be used at any time, except as expressly authorized in writing by the
InterTrust Designated Officers.
5. All of the InterTrust Trademarks that are word marks must always be used
either as a symbol standing alone or as an adjective describing a noun,
with the noun being the generic name of the product to which the trademark
is applied. (For example, "an InterTrust rights protection system" not "an
InterTrust," or "a DigiBox secure container" not "a DigiBox.") Possessive
or plural forms of the InterTrust Trademark word marks are prohibited.
Additional guidelines regarding specific uses of InterTrust Trademarks and
logos may be provided by InterTrust from time to time.
6. The InterTrust Trademarks may not be used as part of or in any emblem or
insignia or on novelty items except as expressly authorized in writing by
the InterTrust Designated Officers. Except as specifically provided in the
Agreement, the InterTrust Trademarks may not be used in combination with
any other trademark, service mark or trade name except as expressly
authorized in writing by an InterTrust Designated Officer.
7. InterTrust will provide its licensees with camera-ready artwork of the
InterTrust Trademarks. This is the form of the InterTrust Trademarks that
must be used, and this artwork shall not be altered in any way with the
exception of resizing, which may be done using conventional and
commercially available processes. The InterTrust Trademarks may be used in
black and white, the exact color scheme specified by InterTrust in the
artwork, or in such other color treatments as may have been previously
authorized in writing by InterTrust. Such authorization may be rescinded at
any time as specified in the Agreement. In addition, the area surrounding
any use of a logotype form of a InterTrust Trademark must be free of any
other pattern or graphic element for at least the width of a band that is
itself at least 20% of the logotype form of the InterTrust Trademark,
unless the licensee has received the prior written authorization of
InterTrust, which may be rescinded in writing at any time.
8. Exhibit C of the Agreement includes a listing of all current registered and
unregistered InterTrust Trademarks, and InterTrust will provide prompt
amendment of Exhibit C as registrations are obtained.
9. Schedule 1 hereto lists those countries in which licensees' use of
InterTrust Trademarks is prohibited or otherwise restricted. InterTrust
will provide prompt amendment of Schedule 1 as changes occur.
10. In addition to these Guidelines, consistent with the Agreement, InterTrust
may amend these Guidelines at any time and/or provide additional
instructions from time to time which must be followed in use of InterTrust
Trademarks. Such amendment and/or instructions shall not be inconsistent
with the terms of the Agreement.

SCREENING PROCEDURES
--------------------
Universal and each Authorized Venture (each a "Screening Party") agree to
implement and abide by the following Screening Procedures:
The "Screening Procedures" are to be implemented by the Screening Party to
separate (i) its Agents that have access to Confidentially Handled Information
from (ii) Agents that have access to confidential information of Other
Technology, and are intended to ensure that such Screening Party operates
without the occurrence of a Compromising Event, including ensuring that no
Confidentially Handled Information is advertently or inadvertently shared with,
disclosed to and/or learned by unauthorized Agents. The Screening Procedures
shall, at a minimum, be in place: (i) with respect to Universal, during the Term
and for twelve (12) months thereafter; and (ii) with respect to an Authorized
Venture, during the duration of a sublicense or delegation (as the case may be)
and for twelve (12) months thereafter, and have the following procedural
attributes, serving the purposes indicated:
(1) Group Composition and Lists. The purpose of group composition lists is to
---------------------------
keep the Parties and the Persons within specific groups informed as to who
should have access to information and who should not have such access. Each
Screening Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep accurate lists
of:
(a) all Agents who have access to, work on, have responsibility for,
or are otherwise privy to, information concerning such Screening Party, or
are otherwise personnel of the Authorized Venture;
(b) all Agents who have access to, work on, have responsibility for,
or are otherwise privy to Confidentially Handled Information (the "InterTrust
----------
Technology Group");
----------------
(c) all Agents who have access to, work on, have responsibility for,
or are otherwise privy to contractually protected confidential information
concerning Other Technology, or concerning designs or plans concerning use
(or incorporation) of Other Technology into products and/or related services
of the Screening Party ("Other Technology Group"); and
----------------------
(d) all Authorized Executives (as defined below) who oversee both the
Other Technology Group and the InterTrust Technology Group.
"Authorized Executives" shall be strictly limited to senior business executives
---------------------
that: (i) have a direct need to know business information that is confidential
information relating to both the Other Technology Group and the InterTrust
Technology Group, and (ii) have no material active role in directing the
planning, direction, design or development of technology for such Screening
Party other than high level approval of such Screening Party's general direction
and efforts. Albhy Galuten, Lawrence Kenswil and Michael Bebel and their
successors shall at all times be considered Authorized Executives. Each
Screening Party shall ensure that only Persons who qualify as Authorized
Executives, and no other Person, are permitted to oversee personnel in both the
Other Technology Group and the InterTrust Technology Group.
Each Screening Party shall maintain copies of such lists, which shall be
available for inspection and review by InterTrust upon InterTrust's prior
written request.
E-1
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
(2) Information Security and Handling. The purpose of information security is
---------------------------------
to ensure that no Confidentially Handled Information is transferred between any
Other Technology Group participants and authorized Screening Party personnel
working with Confidentially Handled Information. The information security
procedures shall comprise, at a minimum, the following:
(a) procedures reasonably sufficient to ensure that a member of the
InterTrust Technology Group shall not discuss or disclose to persons
outside of such group (especially to any member of the Other Technology
Group) any Confidentially Handled Information of InterTrust or of such
Screening Party related to InterTrust, including any Confidentially Handled
Information regarding InterTrust Technology and/or plans, including, but
not limited to, technical and business activities, as well as any
Confidentially Handled Information of such Group or InterTrust (whether or
not such information includes information about InterTrust Technology or
information disclosed by InterTrust to Universal or such Screening Party)
except that the InterTrust Technology Group may disclose, to a commercially
reasonable extent for the purposes set forth below, such information to the
Screening Party's or Contractor's accounting, budget management, legal, or
other internal administrative departments, but solely for the purpose of
obtaining necessary administrative or non-technical support or consultant
services from such departments, or to fulfill reasonable reporting
responsibilities related to administrative management of, or high level
strategic planning for, the InterTrust Technology Group regarding its past,
present, and future activities, resources, and planning, but such reporting
shall not materially include InterTrust or InterTrust Technology Group
technical information that is Confidentially Handled Information.
(b) except to the extent expressly and reasonably in support of the
provisions of Section 2(a) immediately above, no documents (or summaries or
material portions thereof) containing Confidentially Handled Information of
InterTrust or the InterTrust Technology Group shall be disseminated or
disclosed by the Screening Party or the Contractor to any person outside of
the InterTrust Technology Group or InterTrust; and
(c) any InterTrust Technology Group information no longer in active
use must be securely disposed of, including, for example, cross-shredding
in a secure and effective manner.
(3) Computer/Network Security. The purpose of Computer/Network security is to
-------------------------
impede potential information flow between the InterTrust Technology Group and
any Other Technology Group by limiting access to electronic information. The
Computer/Network Security procedures shall comprise, at a minimum, the
following:
(a) no portable storage media (such as floppy disks, CDROM, etc.)
shall be passed between members of the InterTrust and any Other Technology
Groups unless such media has been examined and confirmed not to contain
confidential information of either group;
(b) no person or entity who is not in or working directly and closely
with, the InterTrust Technology Group, and who is not further expressly (i)
prohibited by written agreement from working with competitive technology of
the InterTrust Technology Group during the course of their work with the
Screening Party (including, as relates to any Authorized Venture, with its
participants) and (ii) bound under confidentiality and non-use provisions
that protect all InterTrust Rights in InterTrust Confidential Information
(as if they were a Universal employee as provided for in the Agreement),
shall be permitted to have access to the InterTrust Technology Group's
network resources, including file storage, printing, communications, and
other host or server resources;
E-2
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
(c) any server resources of the InterTrust Technology Group must be
protected against unauthorized access, at a minimum through the use of
individual user passwords; and
(d) no InterTrust Top Secret Information shall be stored on a server
(unless such server is used solely in connection with the InterTrust
Technology Group), or other storage media shared by persons not in the
InterTrust Technology Group, and no such InterTrust Top Secret Information
shall be included in any e-mail and other electronic communications between
members of the InterTrust Technology Group passing through any host or
server to which any member of any Other Technology Group has any access
rights. With respect to information relating to Confidentially Handled
Information other than Top Secret Information, all e-mail and other
electronic communication between members of the InterTrust Technology Group
containing any such information shall not pass through any host or server
to which any member of any Other Technology Group has any access rights
which enables users to access information as an administrator.
(4) Physical Security. The purpose of physical security is to impede potential
-----------------
flow of Confidentially Handled Information between the InterTrust Technology
Group and any Other Technology Group by physical separation. The physical
security procedures shall comprise, at a minimum, the following:
(a) no individual offices or work space may be shared by members of
the InterTrust Technology Group and any Other Technology Group; and
(b) any InterTrust Technology Group area (including areas containing
files of such Group) shall have locks and such other appropriate security
barriers sufficient to ensure that only authorized persons (including
building and administrative services) may enter or obtain access to such
areas or information contained therein. No Other Technology Group member
shall be authorized to enter such InterTrust Technology Group areas;
(5) Written Procedures and Education. Written procedures and education are
--------------------------------
intended to aid compliance with information procedures by making sure that
Screening Party employees (including members of the InterTrust Technology
Group or any Other Technology Group) are aware of the procedures they are
expected to follow. The Screening Party and its participants shall ensure
that relevant employees are informed of the Screening Procedures by, at a
minimum:
(a) memorializing the definition of a Compromising Event and the
Screening Procedures in a memorandum (the "Screening Procedures Memo") and
-------------------------
distributing the Screening Procedures Memo to each of the persons listed in
Section 1 hereof (including new members of the groups, as added);
(b) conducting one or more meetings promptly following the Effective
Date (and with new employees during an orientation meeting) to explain the
Screening Procedures to all affected personnel;
(c) periodically advising relevant employees of information which, if
not handled in accordance with these Procedures, could lead to a
Compromising Event, and of the necessity of following the Screening
Procedures; and
(d) posting the requirements of the Screening Procedures in
appropriate, prominent locations within the InterTrust Technology and Other
Technology Group areas to remind Screening Party and its participants and
their employees of their Screening Procedure obligations.

as relates to an Authorized Venture, any participants is engaged in
developing, marketing, distributing, promoting, or otherwise pursuing
business activities supportive of any Other Technology and such absence of
support for Other Technology is certified in writing by each such Person,
then, but only for so long as no such Party is involved in such support of
Other Technology, information, including Confidentially Handled Information
of InterTrust or of the InterTrust Technology Group, may be handled
according to the terms and conditions for Confidential Information and Top
Secret Information in the Agreement (and without such Screening
Procedures), but further only so long as: (a) no such Party becomes
involved in such support of Other Technology, and (b) the Screening Party
is compliant with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

understands and acknowledges that the Services are being provided solely by
Universal and that neither the provision of the Services, nor this Agreement,
nor any other relationship between Universal and Customer creates any
relationship, contractual or otherwise, between Customer and InterTrust, or
makes Customer a third-party beneficiary of any relationship, contractual or
otherwise, between Universal and InterTrust. Accordingly, InterTrust will have

embodiments of Confidential Information in the undersigned's possession to
InterTrust promptly upon request by InterTrust, and in no event later than
fifteen (15) days thereafter.

confidentiality to InterTrust or Universal (as applicable) as of the date such

disclose Confidential Information pursuant to a court order issued by a court of
competent jurisdiction or as otherwise required by law; provided that the

undersigned shall provide prompt advance notice thereof to InterTrust to enable
InterTrust to seek a protective order or otherwise prevent such disclosure and
shall disclose no more than the minimum information required by such court order
or by law.
6. If any provision or portion thereof in this Agreement shall be found or be
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction in which this Agreement is being performed,
then this Agreement shall nevertheless be given full force and effect without
said provision or portion. This Agreement may not be modified except by written
agreement dated subsequent to the date of this Agreement and signed by both
parties. This agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of
the United States and the Commonwealth of Virginia, USA, without reference to
conflicts of laws principles. All disputes arising out of or relating to the

shall provide InterTrust with the name of the proposed sublicensee and a
certification that the proposed sublicense agreement includes all of the
provisions contained in the approved sublicense form. Where the proposed
sublicensee is not a SSG and/or SOFTBANK Affiliate, InterTrust shall have thirty
(30) days to authorize such proposed sublicensee. InterTrust's decision to
authorize or refuse to authorize a proposed sublicensee that is not a SSG and/or
SOFTBANK Affiliate shall be in InterTrust's sole discretion, and can be
exercised on any basis. If InterTrust fails to authorize the sublicensee, the
sublicense agreement shall not take effect. Any sublicense granted to an
Affiliate of SSG or SOFTBANK shall remain effective only so long as such
sublicensee remains an Affiliate of SSG or SOFTBANK. SSG shall guarantee and
remain liable to InterTrust for all sublicensees' performance of such
obligations. Sublicensees shall have no further right to sublicense any right
received. SSG agrees and acknowledges that SSG's performance of its obligations
hereunder is necessary for InterTrust to adequately protect its Intellectual
Property Rights made available hereunder, and such performance shall constitute
a condition precedent to the granting of other licenses under Article 5 hereof.
(a) Non-Clearinghouse Sublicenses. SSG may enter into sublicense
-----------------------------
agreements pursuant to which SSG may grant sublicensees some or all of the
rights licensed to SSG under Sections 5.1(a)(i), 5.1(a)(ii), 5.1(a)(iii),
5.1(a)(iv) and 5.1(c). In addition to other terms set forth in this Section
5.2 above, such sublicenses shall be subject to the following terms and
conditions:
-16-
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
(i) SSG shall grant sublicenses only to SOFTBANK or its
Affiliates (and only while SSG is a SOFTBANK Affiliate);
(ii) Products distributed to, and/or services performed by,
Persons other than SSG must be performed and branded solely under SSG
Trademarks or, as applicable, other SSG Affiliate or SOFTBANK
Affiliate trademarks as set forth herein (except where use of
InterTrust Trademarks is required herein), but in the case of a SSG or
SOFTBANK Affiliate, only for so long as such SSG or SOFTBANK Affiliate
remains such an Affiliate;
(iii) Activities authorized under the sublicense shall be
limited to the development of SSG Products or Cooperative
Applications.
(b) Clearinghouse Function Sublicenses. SSG may enter into sublicense
----------------------------------
agreements pursuant to which SSG may authorize performance of some or all
of the activities licensed to SSG under Section 5.1(b) by any Person, but
solely to perform Clearinghouse Functions on behalf of SSG, and solely
under SSG Trademarks or, as applicable hereunder, any other SSG or SOFTBANK
Affiliate trademarks as set forth herein and in accordance with Section
5.1(b) hereof.
5.3 No Additional Licenses. SSG understands and acknowledges that
----------------------
InterTrust is licensing to SSG only certain limited rights to use InterTrust
Technology (including performing Clearinghouse Functions and sublicensing
certain rights granted SSG) as described herein. Thus, notwithstanding the
generality of any other provision herein, SSG acknowledges and agrees that the
licenses granted under Sections 5.1 and 5.2 are the only licenses granted to
SSG, and that no other licenses are granted, expressly, or by implication or
estoppel, now or in the future. All rights not expressly granted to SSG under
this Agreement are reserved and retained by InterTrust.
5.4 General Restrictions. SSG covenants that it shall not: (i) during
--------------------
the term of this Agreement, reverse engineer any technology that has been
supplied to SSG in Object Code form only, or emulate the functionality of,
and/or modify any portion of the Core Technology; or (ii) after the term of this
Agreement, use or exploit the InterTrust Technology for any purpose whatsoever.
Any use by SSG of any portion of the InterTrust Technology and/or Modified
Technology outside the scope of the licenses granted by InterTrust hereunder
shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement.
ARTICLE 6. SSG SUPPORT AND ADDITIONAL COVENANTS.
6.1 SSG Support of InterTrust Technology.
------------------------------------
-17-
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
(a) SSG Use of InterTrust Technology. In accordance with the
--------------------------------
licenses granted to SSG and the other terms hereunder, SSG agrees to
develop, produce, and generally distribute, or use for commercial purposes,
a SSG Product and/or a Cooperative Application as soon as commercially
reasonable and practicable, and in any case within [*] ([*]) months
following the date InterTrust makes available to SSG the System Developer
Kit 1.0 in beta format. Such time period shall be extended by any period in
which: (i) there exists a Material Defect in the InterTrust Technology that
materially impedes SSG's development efforts as relevant, but only from the
date that SSG documents such defect as provided in Section 3.3(b) hereof to
the date InterTrust has reasonably corrected or removed such Material
Defect as provided hereunder; or (ii) InterTrust materially fails to
provide any of the support services required in Section 3.3 (other than
Section 3.3(b)) and such material failure actually impedes SSG's
development efforts, as relevant, but only to the extent of any delay
reasonably and solely attributable to such material failure.
(b) Compliance with InterTrust Specifications. SSG shall not commence
-----------------------------------------
the distribution, sale or other transfer of any specific SSG Product or
Cooperative Application, or perform any service directly relating to such
products or applications, unless such SSG Product, Cooperative Application
and/or service is in Compliance with InterTrust Specifications. InterTrust
may, from time to time in its sole discretion, modify InterTrust
Specifications to accommodate changes in InterTrust Technology, and any
related InterTrust product development, for purposes of, for example,
improving architectural integrity, functional capability, standardization,
security capability, efficiency, and/or interoperability of InterTrust
Commerce-based technology, components, products and services (a "New
---
Specification"). InterTrust shall use commercially reasonable efforts to
-------------
maintain compatibility between a New Specification and the then-preceding
Specification, unless considerations of security, interoperability,
performance, or functionality enhancement indicate that such compatibility
is not commercially appropriate. To the extent InterTrust releases a New
Specification that applies to any portion of a Cooperative Application, SSG
Product and/or service then being performed or distributed by SSG (as
applicable), SSG shall bring any further such products delivered to
customers, and/or any services for any such products (as applicable), into
Compliance with such New Specification as of the earliest to occur of: (i)
the next version, release, or production cycle of such Cooperative
Application, SSG Product and/or service (the "Next Version"), as earlier
------------
applicable, but only to the extent that SSG receives notice of such New
Specification within a reasonably sufficient time of such Next Version to
accommodate new aspects of such New Specification; and (ii) [*] ([*])
months after SSG receives a released copy of such New Specification.
InterTrust and SSG further agree that SSG shall, within [*] ([*]) months
after receiving a released copy of such New Specification, implement such
new aspects of such New Specification for all applicable services
supporting and/or employing SSG Products and Cooperative Applications
and/or any other products employing InterTrust Technology provided to
customers and not meeting such New Specification. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, should serious technical interoperability and/or security
requirements commercially necessitate more prompt action, SSG and
InterTrust will confer and agree upon the most aggressive, practical
schedule feasible to ensure Compliance with the New Specification for all
SSG Products, Cooperative Applications, and any services relating to such
products or applications. Under such conditions, SSG shall take whatever
commercially

appropriate steps are reasonable and required under the circumstances to
minimize or eliminate a continuation of such interoperability and/or
security problems.
(c) Compliance Testing. SSG acknowledges that: (i) in support of
------------------
InterTrust Technology, InterTrust may implement one or more certification
programs designed to ensure that licensed products and/or associated
services (including SSG Products and any Cooperative Applications) use
InterTrust Technology and/or Modified Technology in Compliance with
InterTrust Specifications in accordance with this Agreement (the
"Certification Program(s)"); and (ii) such a Certification Program(s) is
------------------------
important to maintaining the reliability of products and services employing
InterTrust Technology and/or Modified Technology, and in maintaining public
confidence in the integrity of InterTrust brands as the resource for
interoperable electronic commerce. Such Certification Programs may, in
InterTrust's sole discretion, require, for example, SSG: (a) to use a suite
of test software provided by InterTrust for use by SSG to test and verify
that Cooperative Applications and SSG Products (and/or associated services)
are in Compliance with InterTrust Specifications; (b) to submit samples of
Cooperative Applications and SSG Products and associated programs,
parameter data, and other information (in object code form unless source
code is necessary or reasonably appropriate) that may be technically
material to Compliance with InterTrust Specifications, prior to first
commercial distribution, sale, other transfer to, or use by, a customer or
SSG service, as applicable, so as to allow InterTrust (or an InterTrust
delegate) to perform confidential testing ("Certification Testing"); and
---------------------
(c) to the extent that options (a) or (b) immediately above do not, or can
not reasonably be anticipated to, provide sufficient information to verify
Compliance, to provide InterTrust with full and detailed specifications and
documentation related to SSG's use of InterTrust Technology and Modified
Technology for SSG Products, Cooperative Applications, and any associated
services, but only to the extent that any such specifications and
documentation may be material to Certification Testing. SSG shall comply
with any Certification Program established by InterTrust in accordance
herewith, and all specifications and documentation provided shall be
certified by an authorized representative of SSG. In connection with any
such Certification Testing, particularly the testing of products and/or
services, as applicable, InterTrust (or an InterTrust delegate) will
respond in a reasonably prompt manner following receipt of submitted
products and access to, or receipt of technology supporting, such service,
unless commercially reasonable factors prolong such testing. Such response
shall be in the form of: (1) a written approval that the product or service
is certified (such SSG Products and Cooperative Applications not being
Compliant until such certification has been granted); or (2) if not
approved, a detailed summary of problems and, where feasible, suggested
solutions. InterTrust (or an InterTrust delegate) will apply the
Certification Program, as applicable, in a non-discriminatory and
consistent manner with respect to similar products and/or services.
InterTrust's rights under this Section 6.1 shall not be affected in any
manner by an InterTrust decision not to perform such Certification Testing.
(d) Costs. To defray costs associated with the performance and
-----
administration of the Certification Program, in connection with the
certification of any product or service SSG shall be charged a reasonable
fee not to exceed industry norms for similar testing activities (and, if
conducted by InterTrust, the full cost incurred by InterTrust in performing
and administering such tests). An estimate of such fee shall be provided to
-19-
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
SSG, as applicable, as soon as reasonably practical upon SSG's submission
of samples, or documentation for and access to services, for testing, and
such fee shall be paid by SSG in accordance with standard industry
practices, as available.
(e) Translation of Material in Foreign Languages. InterTrust shall
--------------------------------------------
have the right to receive and approve (to the extent referencing InterTrust
Technology or capabilities and/or functions enabled by InterTrust
Technology) any non-English translations made by or for SSG of
documentation provided by SSG concerning SSG Products, and Cooperative
Applications, and any related services (including Distributable
Documentation), legends and Notices required pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof
and other required notices, and all versions of InterTrust Technology.
6.2 Customer Agreements. SSG shall not distribute any Cooperative
-------------------
Application or SSG Product to any Person unless SSG shall have first notified
and required such Person to execute a form of customer agreement (the "Customer
--------
Agreement(s)") provided by SSG, such Customers Agreement forms having: (i)
- ------------
terms relating to InterTrust Technology and InterTrust's rights and interests
consistent with and reflective of the terms of this Agreement; and (ii) been
previously approved in writing by InterTrust (such approval not to be withheld
unless such Customer Agreement(s) does not reasonably protect InterTrust's
rights under this Agreement or sufficiently protect InterTrust's Intellectual
Property Rights. Once approved by InterTrust, the Customer Agreement(s) shall be
set forth as an Exhibit to this Agreement and may be used, as applicable, by SSG
as a form agreement unless and until: (a) SSG modifies such agreement (provided
that InterTrust has approved such modification in writing); or (b) InterTrust
reasonably requires that SSG alter the Customer Agreement to protect
InterTrust's rights under this Agreement or to protect its Intellectual Property
Rights, for example in view of court decisions and/or applicable regulations
under the circumstances. At a minimum, the Customer Agreement forms will: (i)
prohibit customers from disassembling, modifying or reverse engineering any
portion of the InterTrust Technology incorporated in the SSG Product or
Cooperative Application; (ii) stipulate that such customer has no right to use
the SSG Product or Cooperative Application to engage in or perform any
Clearinghouse Functions whatsoever unless such customer is an Authorized
Clearinghouse Provider or an authorized sublicensee under Section 5.2 hereof;
(iii) grant such customer only a limited license to use the Cooperative
Application or SSG Product, and, as applicable, to (A) incorporate Authorized
Application Software into such customer's software product to provide a Rights
User Node that is Compliant with InterTrust Specifications or (B) develop and
incorporate software components that provide the interface for and support
operation in conjunction with a Rights User Node provided by InterTrust Commerce
Technology; (iv) permit such customer to engage SSG and/or an Authorized
Clearinghouse Provider to perform Clearinghouse Functions with respect to such
software product; (v) provide that if such customer is permitted to modify any
portion of InterTrust Technology, such customer shall grant to InterTrust a
license on substantially the same terms as Section 8.4; (vi) provide that the
Customer Agreement is to and for InterTrust's benefit and may be enforced by
InterTrust at its discretion; and (vii) contain such other provisions as
stipulated herein. SSG agrees that to the extent any form of Customer Agreement
might be deemed to be unenforceable or otherwise ineffective in any
jurisdiction, SSG shall, upon notification by InterTrust, substitute other forms
of Customer Agreements, or take other actions, as reasonably specified by
InterTrust, including, for example, specifying other generally accepted, legally
effective forms of Customer Agreement, if such exists for a given jurisdiction,
in order to provide InterTrust with legally enforceable protection contemplated
hereunder. SSG agrees and acknowledges that SSG's
-20-
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
performance of its obligations hereunder is necessary for InterTrust to
adequately protect its Intellectual Property Rights made available hereunder,
and such performance shall constitute a condition precedent to the licenses
granted under Article 5 hereof. SSG shall not be obligated to file any claim in
litigation to enforce the terms of Customer Agreement(s); provided that SSG
-------- ----
shall, if requested by InterTrust, terminate such Customer Agreement(s) upon a
material breach by such customer(s).
6.3 Legends and Notices.
-------------------
(a) Product Legends and Notices. SSG shall, in accordance with
---------------------------
InterTrust's instructions and/or approved exemplars and samples provided

by InterTrust, so long as such notices (a) in the opinion of InterTrust's
counsel, assist in protecting InterTrust intellectual property and other
InterTrust rights under the laws of any relevant jurisdiction, (b) are
commercially reasonable means to protect InterTrust rights without being
overly intrusive or unreasonably costly to SSG's sales and marketing
efforts, and (c) in InterTrust's reasonable opinion or upon written opinion
of InterTrust's outside legal counsel, cannot be adequately addressed in
the Customer Agreement. Before any Notices are omitted pursuant to
subsections (b) and (c) immediately above, SSG shall advise InterTrust in
writing of the circumstances and the Parties' Project Managers shall
directly discuss the issue. SSG shall not, and shall not permit any Person
to, remove, alter, cover, obfuscate or otherwise deface any InterTrust
Trademarks or Notices on any InterTrust Technology or associated

have any obligation to provide any such link to the extent that
InterTrust's home page: (a) references any software distributor other than
SSG, SOFTBANK, or a SOFTBANK Affiliate as an InterTrust provider of
software distribution clearinghouse transaction services; or (b) contains
materials, or points to another website that contains materials, directly
and substantially in conflict with SSG's material commercial interests.
Before any such link is removed or not established for the reasons set
forth in subsection (a) and (b) immediately above, SSG shall provide
InterTrust with four (4) days prior written notice describing any such
material conflict and afford InterTrust the opportunity to comment upon
and, if appropriate, correct such conflict. InterTrust shall be afforded
the opportunity to have a link re-established promptly upon any
rectification of a material conflict.
(c) Prospective Notice. The Notices shall be effective beginning on
------------------
the date InterTrust gives SSG written notice thereof and SSG shall as soon
as reasonably commercially practicable implement and/or comply with
applicable portions thereof.

reasonably applied to the use of SSG Trademarks. Such SSG Trademark guidelines
shall include a list of SSG Trademarks that have been registered, applied for,
or used in interstate commerce and shall specify restrictions on use, including
permitted countries and jurisdictions. SSG Trademarks, as listed on Exhibit C
attached hereto, may be reasonably modified by SSG from time to time upon SSG's
provision to InterTrust of reasonable prior written notice thereof. Any such

costs and expenses of collection, including, without limitation, reasonable fees
for attorneys and court costs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such specified
rate of interest shall not excuse or in any way whatsoever be construed as a
waiver of SSG's express obligation to timely provide any and all payments due to
InterTrust hereunder.
7.6 Audit. SSG shall maintain at its principal place of business during
-----
the term of this Agreement and for a period of [*] ([*]) years thereafter all

CONFIDENTIAL
SSG will permit an auditor or agent of InterTrust's choice (subject to SSG's
consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to examine and
audit, during a reasonable time (but no more than [*] every [*] ([*]) months),
such books, records, accounts, documentation and materials, and take extracts
therefrom or make copies thereof for the purpose of verifying the correctness of
SSG's reported royalty statements and payments provided by SSG or compliance
with the license terms and other material obligations hereunder. SSG shall pay
any unpaid delinquent amounts within ten (10) days of InterTrust's request. To
the extent such examination: (a) discloses an underpayment of more than [*]
dollars ($[*]) and such underpayment represents a sum greater than [*] percent
([*]%) of the sums paid to InterTrust by SSG during the applicable period
subject to such audit; or (b) discloses an underpayment of more than [*] dollars
($[*]), SSG shall fully reimburse InterTrust, promptly upon demand, for the fees
and disbursements due the auditor for such audit; provided that such prompt
payment shall not be in lieu of any other remedies or rights available to
InterTrust hereunder. If an audit reveals an overpayment, InterTrust shall
notify SSG of such overpayment and SSG will apply the amount of such overpayment
against future royalties due and payable to InterTrust. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, within [*] ([*]) days of a request by SSG, InterTrust shall reimburse
SSG up to [*] dollars ($[*]) of any such overpayment amount; provided that
InterTrust posted a profit in accordance with GAAP in the calendar year
preceding such request. Any balance will be paid from future royalties as
provided for above.

reimplements the existing functionality of InterTrust Technology provided to
SSG, including, for example, porting or translation thereof); (iii) all
Intellectual Property Rights created, or embodied in any works (whether tangible
or intangible) created, independently by SSG in connection with its performance
of this Agreement, including participation in any Cooperative Application
Project Plan to the extent permitted under its licenses hereunder; and (iv)
modifications or derivative works that are created by SSG and/or incorporated by

thereof for any purpose whatsoever unless SSG shall have first negotiated and
obtained on terms acceptable to InterTrust and SSG in their discretion a
cooperative use agreement with InterTrust therefor.
8.3 Joint Ownership. The Parties may from time to time discuss and
---------------
mutually agree in writing upon the division of ownership rights appropriate for

------------------------
Technology-based products and services as follows:
(a) Prior to October 1, 1996, SSG, with InterTrust's assistance,
shall develop a detailed outline for the marketing program (the "Marketing
---------
Outline"), which shall be subject to each Party's reasonable approval. The
-------
Marketing Outline will set forth, at a minimum, detailed proposed Marketing
Activities (as defined below) on a quarterly basis, and a proposed
schedule, budget, and expense allocation (the "Allocated Expenses") for
--------- --------
SSG's cooperative marketing efforts in connection with the Marketing
Activities (such allocation to include, as mutually and reasonably agreed
by the Parties, pro rata portions of overhead and expenses as appropriate).
(b) The Marketing Outline shall include, at minimum, the following
activities, and other activities as the Parties may agree (collectively,
the "Marketing Activities"): (i) advertisement of InterTrust prominently
--------------------
in conjunction with SSG-advertised electronic commerce activities of SSG
products and/or services; (ii) prominent placement on SSG's, and, as
relevant, SOFTBANK Affiliates' primary world wide web page(s) of the
InterTrust logo and such other reasonable, limited marketing statements
that InterTrust may provide to SSG and that are mutually agreeable to both

Davis Publishing Company)
(c) During the Marketing Project Period, SSG shall directly expend at
least [*] dollars (US$[*]) in Allocated Expenses to carry out the
activities set forth in the Marketing Outline. Such expenditure shall be
deemed to be a material obligation of SSG hereunder. If at the end of the
Marketing Project Period SSG has spent less than [*] dollars (US$[*])

that: (A) SSG's representative materially fails to comply with any of the rules
established by InterTrust for the Technology Advisory Committee; (B) SSG
materially breaches any of its representations, warranties or obligations under
this Agreement; (C) SOFTBANK and/or UCA sells or transfers all or any portion of
InterTrust securities obtained pursuant to the Stock Purchase Warrant Agreements

ARTICLE 11. CONFIDENTIALITY.
11.1 Classification of Technology and Documents For Confidentiality
--------------------------------------------------------------
Purposes. For ease in complying with the terms of this Article 11, information
- --------
and documents to be exchanged by the Parties shall be marked, as appropriate, to
identify the confidential or nonconfidential nature of the information. As
regards InterTrust Technology (including Documentation) and other documents or
information provided by InterTrust to SSG hereunder, such information shall be
marked or indicated as: (i) "Unclassified"; (ii) "Confidential"; or (iii) "Top
Secret." SSG information shall be marked as: (a) "Unclassified" or (b)
"Confidential." A Party and its authorized personnel shall exercise careful
judgment when they are in possession of information of the other Party that has
not been marked or indicated with one of the above-described classifications.
If any information provided by one Party has not been marked or indicated as
above and is not known with certainty by the receiving Party to have been either
publicly released or otherwise classified as "Unclassified," then such other
Party, its employees and any other person authorized to possess such information
shall treat such information as "Confidential" except information provided by
InterTrust relating to security capabilities, trustedness, and architecture (or
design) integrity of the InterTrust Technology, which shall be considered to be
"Top Secret" and shall be handled as provided by Section 11.2(b) hereof.
11.2 InterTrust Information.
----------------------
(a) Confidential Information. To the extent that SSG receives from
------------------------
InterTrust under this Agreement any InterTrust Technology or any other
information or technology that is marked "Confidential" when disclosed in
written form, or indicated as "Confidential" when disclosed orally
("InterTrust Confidential Information"), SSG shall hold such InterTrust
-------------------------------------
Confidential Information in strict confidence and in a manner that: (i) is
sufficiently secure for the character and content of the InterTrust
Confidential Information; and (ii) is not less secure than procedures used
by SSG to protect its comparably important information and technology. SSG
shall not, without InterTrust's prior written consent, use, disclose,
provide or otherwise make available any InterTrust Confidential Information
to any person, except to any employee, director, consultant, agent or
professional consultant ("Agents") of SSG or one or more of SSG's permitted
------
sublicensees as authorized under the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, and their Agents of which each shall operate under the same
restrictions as SSG. Furthermore, in each case of disclosure to an Agent
of SSG or an authorized sublicensee, access to such InterTrust Confidential
Information shall be allowed only to Agents who have a reasonable need to
know such InterTrust Confidential Information, and then only to the extent
necessary to enable SSG or any such authorized sublicensee to use
InterTrust Confidential Information solely to exercise its license (or
sublicense) hereunder and/or as expressly allowed hereunder. SSG and any
such sublicensees, as the case may be, shall: (a) require their Agents
having access to any portion of InterTrust Confidential Information to
strictly maintain its confidentiality; and (b) ensure that each such Agent
shall have executed with SSG and/or an authorized sublicensee (as
applicable) a written non-disclosure/non-use agreement in the form set
forth on Exhibit G at all hereto or as subsequently provided by InterTrust,
or SSG's or such sublicensee's applicable form agreement which shall
effectively and comparably bind such Agent to the same scope as
InterTrust's form agreement, and which SSG's or sublicensee's form
agreement shall be subject to InterTrust's reasonable prior written
approval. SSG shall notify InterTrust
-33-
<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
promptly in writing of any unauthorized disclosure or other misuse or
misappropriation of any portions of the InterTrust Confidential
Information. SSG and any sublicensee (as appropriate) shall be fully
responsible for any breach of SSG's or sublicensees' obligations under this
Agreement by any Agent to whom such InterTrust Confidential Information has
been disclosed. Any obligation of SSG to keep InterTrust Confidential
Information in confidence shall expire thirty-six (36) months after
disclosure of such information by InterTrust to SSG.
(b) Top Secret Information. In order to protect InterTrust's rights,
----------------------
the rights of InterTrust licensees, and the secure interoperability and
reputation of InterTrust implementations, SSG shall treat any InterTrust
Technology or other confidential information that is either marked "Top
Secret" when disclosed in written form, or indicated as "Top Secret" when
disclosed orally ("Top Secret Information") in a manner not less secure
----------------------
than SSG's most secret information and, in all events in a manner
sufficient to reasonably ensure the security of such Top Secret
Information, given such great sensitivity of such Top Secret Information.
SSG shall allow disclosure of such Top Secret Information to no more than
[*] designated individual employees of SSG at any time (and to no
sublicensee Agents), each of whom has a direct need to know such
information or be exposed to such Top Secret Information (as agreed in each
case by InterTrust) and then only to the extent necessary for SSG to use
Top Secret Information solely to exercise its rights and perform its
obligations under this Agreement. SSG shall not substitute any employee
designated to receive Top Secret Information with another employee, unless
such designated employee's employment with SSG has been terminated and such
person is no longer able to serve the intended role. None of such
employees shall receive a disclosure of any such Top Secret Information
until: (i) such employee becomes bound by personally executing an
InterTrust Top Secrecy Agreement (in the form set forth in Exhibit G hereto
or as subsequently provided by InterTrust) covering such information and
exposure; and (ii) an original executed copy of such agreement is received
by InterTrust, with return receipt provided to SSG, which such receipt may
be provided by fax communication if so requested in writing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, SSG and SSG employees described above shall
make no physical embodiments (for example, any reproduction or copy,
including descriptive notes) whatsoever of Top Secret Information, without
the prior express written authorization from InterTrust's Chairman of
Board, President or any other InterTrust Officer designated in a written
communication to SSG signed by InterTrust's Chairman of the Board (the
"Designated Officers"), nor shall SSG or such SSG employees disclose any
--------------------
Top Secret Information to any Person, except as described in this Section
11.2(b). If SSG becomes aware that any Top Secret Information has been
disclosed or treated other than as set forth in this Section 11.2(b),
and/or as specified in a Top Secrecy Agreement, SSG shall immediately
inform InterTrust of such occurrence and take immediate steps to correct
such compromise. SSG shall maintain a log of the employees accessing and
location of all originals and other tangible embodiments of all Top Secret
Information. SSG shall be fully responsible for any breach by any SSG
employee of this Agreement related to the unauthorized use or disclosure of
Top Secret Information.
11.3 SSG Information. To the extent that InterTrust receives SSG
---------------
confidential information that is either marked "confidential" when disclosed in
written form or indicated as "confidential" when disclosed orally ("SSG
---
Confidential Information"), under this Agreement,

<PAGE>
CONFIDENTIAL
InterTrust shall hold said SSG Confidential Information in confidence in a
manner that is sufficiently secure for the character and content of the
information and under no circumstances shall such SSG Confidential Information
be held in a manner that is less secure than procedures used by InterTrust in
connection with its comparably important information. Except as to the
disclosure by SSG of the Modified Technology or such disclosures inherent in the
Certification Testing of SSG Products, Cooperative Applications and/or any
associated services pursuant hereto and only to the extent expressly specified
by InterTrust Specifications, SSG shall not disclose or otherwise provide or
make available any SSG Confidential Information which is directly related to
InterTrust Technology and InterTrust's business activities, without first
acquiring written approval from a Designated Officer of InterTrust. InterTrust
shall not use, disclose, provide or otherwise make available any SSG
Confidential Information it has received in any form to any person except an
Agent of InterTrust. In a disclosure to Agents of InterTrust, access to SSG
Confidential Information shall be allowed only to Agents who have a reasonable
need to know such confidential information and only to the extent necessary to
enable InterTrust to use confidential information to exercise its rights and
perform its obligations hereunder. InterTrust shall: (a) require its Agents
having access to any portion of confidential information to strictly maintain
its confidentiality; and (b) ensure that each such Agent shall have executed
with InterTrust a written non-disclosure/non-use agreement provided by SSG, or
InterTrust's applicable form agreement which shall effectively and comparably
bind such Agent to the same scope as SSG's form agreement, and which InterTrust
form agreement shall be subject to SSG's reasonable prior written approval. Upon
such approval the SSG form agreement will be attached as an Exhibit hereto.
InterTrust agrees to notify SSG promptly in writing of any unauthorized
disclosure or other misuse or misappropriation of SSG Confidential Information
provided to InterTrust which may come to the attention of an InterTrust officer.
InterTrust shall be fully responsible for any breach of InterTrust's obligations
under this Agreement by any Agent to whom such SSG Confidential Information has
been disclosed. Any obligation of InterTrust to keep SSG information in
confidence shall expire thirty-six (36) months after disclosure of such
information by SSG to InterTrust.
11.4 Exceptions. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 11.2 and 11.3
----------
above, and except as to "Top Secret" information as provided in Section 11.2(b),
the confidentiality restrictions herein shall not apply to information that the
recipient thereof can demonstrate: (i) is or becomes generally known to the
public through no breach of any of these obligations, as of the date such
information becomes so known; (ii) is or shall have been independently developed
by such recipient by employees who had no access to such information; or (iii)
is or shall have been rightfully received, with no obligation of confidentiality
or non-use, by such recipient from any Person (other than as a result of another
Person's breach of an obligation of confidentiality to the discloser of such
information), as of the date such information is so received. In the event any
Party is required by law, regulation or order of a court or other authority of
competent jurisdiction to disclose the other Party's Confidential Information,
such Party shall notify such other Party as promptly as possible, and shall,
upon such other Party's request, reasonably assist in challenging or restricting
the scope of such required disclosure. Top Secret information may be disclosed
only upon InterTrust's prior written approval. In all events, a Party subject
to such required disclosure shall disclose only such information that is
strictly required pursuant thereto and no further information.
11.5 Confidentiality of Agreement and Publicity. Except as otherwise
------------------------------------------
provided in Sections 9.1 and 11.4 hereof, neither Party hereto shall at any
time, without the prior written

consent of the other Party, disclose the specific details of the terms and
conditions of this Agreement to any Person, other than: (i) Agents having a
substantial need to know; (ii) as required by law in connection with any initial
public offering of securities pursuant to a registration under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (an "IPO") (iii) investors holding approximately one
percent (1%) or more of the outstanding equity shares of such Party prior to an
IPO and having no reasonably anticipated conflict of interest with the
disclosing party; (iv) potential investors who may purchase approximately one

breaches any of its [*] under Article 10 to the other Party, the non-breaching
Party shall be entitled, in addition to any other remedies available at law or
in equity, to extend the [*] by the amount of time left on such period

ARTICLE 16. MISCELLANEOUS.
16.1 Governing Law. This Agreement, any and all actions arising out of or
-------------
in any manner affecting the interpretation of this Agreement, and any actions
between the Parties involving the InterTrust Technology, any InterTrust Property

apply to this Agreement. To the extent permitted by law, the provisions of this
Agreement shall supersede any provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code as
adopted or made applicable to this Agreement in any competent jurisdiction.
16.2 Venue and Jurisdiction. In connection with any litigation between the
----------------------
Parties involving a Party Dispute, each Party hereby unconditionally and

---------------------------------------
times comply with all applicable U.S. and foreign federal, state, and local
laws, rules and regulations relating to the execution, delivery and performance

Technology. Additionally, SSG acknowledges that because one or more aspects of
the InterTrust Technology Products is likely to be subject to the export control
laws, regulations and requirements of the United States and other jurisdictions,
SSG Products and Cooperative Applications likely will require export and other
approvals as well. InterTrust shall use reasonable efforts at InterTrust's
expense, and SSG shall at InterTrust's request reasonably assist InterTrust at
SSG's expense, to obtain any license or other approval, if any, that may be
required for InterTrust to make the InterTrust Technology Products and/or
Documentation or information relating thereto available to and SSG or SOFTBANK
Affiliates. SSG shall, at SSG's expense, comply with all applicable laws
(including applicable U.S. export control laws and regulations) and obtain all

or with respect to the distribution of or export or re-export of the SSG
Products and Cooperative Applications (as well as other technology as expressly
permitted hereunder) that contain any part of the InterTrust Technology Products
or Modified Technology in accordance herewith. The Parties expressly agree that
any failure to obtain or any delay in obtaining such approval as to InterTrust
Technology or in connection with any SSG Product or Cooperative Application
shall not relieve SSG from its obligations under this Agreement. As relevant and
applicable, SSG and InterTrust shall: (a) promptly deliver to the other, as
available, documentation reasonably confirming that it has complied with its
responsibilities under this Section 16.3; and (b) obtain such consents and
approvals from appropriate governmental entities
-43-

rights or obligations hereunder to a SOFTBANK Affiliate in connection with any
merger or sale of substantially all of SSG's assets or business related to this
Agreement to such SOFTBANK Affiliate without such InterTrust consent; provided

that such SOFTBANK Affiliate does not own, control, or is not developing,
- ----
promoting, licensing or acquiring any Competitive Technology. InterTrust shall
not assign or transfer this Agreement or its rights or obligations hereunder to
any Person without SSG's prior written consent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, InterTrust shall be
entitled to assign or transfer such rights or obligations hereunder in
connection with any merger or sale of substantially all of assets or business
related to this Agreement without such SSG consent. Subject to the foregoing,
this Agreement will benefit and bind the successors and permitted assigns of the
Parties. Any attempted transfer or assignment without such approval shall be
null and void ab initio and of no force or effect.

5.5 General Restrictions. Whether pursuant to Articles 4 or 5 hereof,
--------------------
and except as specifically provided in this Agreement, MBC covenants that it
shall not during the term of this Agreement or thereafter make, have made, use,
have used, import, lease, sell, transfer, distribute, practice, or have
practiced, make derivative works of, commercially or publicly display or
perform, emulate the functionality of, reverse engineer and/or modify the
InterTrust Technology, the Kernel Technology and/or the Modified Technology. Any

ARTICLE 6. MBC SUPPORT AND ADDITIONAL COVENANTS
6.1 MBC Support of InterTrust Technology.
------------------------------------
(a) MBC Use of InterTrust Technology. If MBC exercises its Option in
--------------------------------
accordance with Article 5 hereof, in connection with the licenses granted
to MBC and the other terms hereunder, MBC agrees to develop, produce and
generally distribute an MBC Product, the Trading Model Cooperative
Application and/or a Cooperative Application as soon as commercially
reasonable and practicable, and in any case within [*] months following the
date InterTrust makes available to MBC the System Developer Kit 1.0. If MBC
has good reason to believe that SDK 1.0 does not provide functionality
necessary to develop a commercially reasonable trading model and such
technology is not reasonably otherwise available, the Parties will, in good
faith, enter into discussions
CONFIDENTIAL
- ---------- * CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED. CONFIDENTIAL PORTION HAS BEEN
FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION.

concerning possible extensions to such time period. Such time period may be
extended in a project plan pursuant to Article 3 or by mutual written
agreement of the Parties, as applicable; provided that: (i) the Parties
-------- ----
shall have no obligation to agree to any such extension; and (ii) in no
case shall the total period from first delivery of any InterTrust
Technology Requirements exceed [*] months.
(b) Compliance with InterTrust Specifications. In addition to such
-----------------------------------------
other restrictions as provided herein, MBC shall not commence the
distribution, sale or other transfer of any MBC Product and/or Cooperative
Application, or perform any service using such MBC Product and/or
Cooperative Application, unless such MBC Product, Cooperative Application
and/or such service is in Compliance with InterTrust Specifications.
InterTrust may, from time to time in its sole discretion, modify InterTrust
Specifications to accommodate progress in InterTrust Technology and related
product development, and, among other things, to promote architectural and
functional integrity, standardization, security capability and
interoperability of InterTrust-based technology, components, products and
services (a "New Specification"). Such modifications shall be made at such
-----------------
times and involve such modifications as reasonably determined by InterTrust
in view of applicable prevailing U.S. software industry standards and the
circumstances motivating such modification. InterTrust shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to maintain compatability between a New
Specification and the then preceding Specification, unless considerations
of security, interoperability, performance, or functionality enhancement
indicate that such compatibility is not commercially appropriate. To the
extent InterTrust modifies or revises an InterTrust Specification, or
releases a new InterTrust Specification, and such New Specification applies
to any portion of a Cooperative Application and/or MBC Product then being
used to perform services, and/or being distributed, by MBC (as applicable),
MBC shall bring such products and/or services into Compliance with such New
Specification as of the earliest to occur of: (i) the next version,
release, or production cycle of such Cooperative Application, MBC Product
and/or the next use thereof to provide any service related thereto (the
"Next Version"), as earlier applicable, but only to the extent that MBC
-------------
receives notice of such New Specification (in accordance with the
procedures of Section 14.5 hereof) within a reasonably sufficient time of
such Next Version to accommodate new aspects of such New Specification; and
(ii) [*] months after MBC receives a released copy of such New
Specification (pursuant to the notice provision of Section 14.5 hereof).
Subject to reasonable business circumstances, InterTrust and MBC may agree
in writing, each in their sole discretion, to a set period of time longer
than such [*] month period, but no longer than [*] months after MBC
receives a released copy of such New Specification (pursuant to the notice
provision of Section 14.5) to accommodate such new aspects of such New
Specification for certain or all applicable, previously existing MBC
Products, Cooperative Applications and/or related services. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, should serious technical interoperability and/or security
requirements commercially necessitate more prompt action, MBC and
InterTrust will confer and agree upon the most aggressive, practical
schedule feasible to reach Compliance with the New Specification, and MBC
shall take whatever commercially

appropriate steps are reasonable and required under the circumstances to
minimize or eliminate a continuation of such interoperability and/or
security problems.
(c) Compliance Testing. In order to maintain secure interoperability,
------------------
reliability, and system-wide InterTrust integrity, MBC acknowledges that in
support of InterTrust Technology, InterTrust may implement one or more
certification programs designed to ensure that licensed products and/or
associated services (including MBC Products and Cooperative Applications)
use InterTrust Technology and/or Modified Technology in Compliance with
InterTrust Specifications (the "Certification Program(s)"). Such
------------------------
Certification Programs may, in InterTrust's sole discretion require, for
example, MBC to: (i) use a suite of test software provided by InterTrust
for use by MBC to internally test and verify that Cooperative Applications,
MBC Products and/or associated services are in Compliance with InterTrust
Specifications; (ii) submit samples of Cooperative Applications and MBC
Products and any associated programs, parameter data, and any other product
information that may be technically material to Compliance with InterTrust
Specifications prior to first use, distribution, sale, or other transfer to
a Customer other than limited beta testing and pilot model operation as
specified by InterTrust Specifications, so as to allow InterTrust (or an
InterTrust delegate) to perform confidential testing ("Certification
-------------
Testing"); and/or (iii) provide InterTrust with full and detailed
-------
specifications and documentation related to MBC's use of InterTrust
Technology and Modified Technology for MBC Products, Cooperative
Applications and any associated services, wherein such specifications and
documentation are material to such compliance testing and wherein all such
specifications and documentation shall be certified by an authorized
representative of MBC. MBC understands and acknowledges that such a
Certification Program is critical to maintaining the reliability of
products and services employing InterTrust Technology and/or Modified
Technology, and in maintaining public confidence in the integrity of
InterTrust brands as the resource for interoperable electronic commerce.
MBC shall comply with the Certification Program established by InterTrust
including, without limitation, provisions relating to delivery of samples,
correction of non-Compliant products, and applications and associated
services, and inclusion of certification marks or logos on Cooperative
Applications, MBC Products and associated services. In connection with any
Certification Testing, particularly the testing of submitted products
and/or services, as applicable, InterTrust (or an InterTrust delegate) will
respond in a prompt manner, and in no event later than one hundred twenty
(120) days following its receipt of such submitted products, unless
commercially reasonable factors prolong such testing. Such response shall
be in the form of: (a) a written approval that the product or service is
certified (such products and services not being Compliant until such
certification has been granted); or (b) if not approved, a detailed summary
of problems and, where feasible, suggested solutions. InterTrust (or an
InterTrust delegate) will apply the Certification Program, as applicable,
in a non-discriminatory and consistent manner with respect to similar
products and/or services. InterTrust's rights under this Section 6.1 shall
not be affected in any manner by an InterTrust decision not to perform such
Certification Testing.

<PAGE>
(d) Costs of Certification Program. To defray costs associated with
------------------------------
the performance and administration of the Certification Program, in
connection with the certification of any MBC Product, Cooperative
Application, and/or any related service, MBC shall be charged a reasonable
fee not to exceed industry norms for similar testing activities (and, if
conducted by InterTrust, the full cost of performing and administering such
tests, except as set forth below concerning InterTrust payment of a portion
of such costs). A written estimate of such fee shall be provided to MBC, as
applicable, as soon as reasonably practical upon MBC's submission of
samples (or other required material) for testing. Such fees shall be paid
by MBC, in accordance with standard industry practices, except that
InterTrust shall pay [*] of such fees for any specific certification test
(once such fees in the aggregate have exceeded [*] dollars ($US[*]));
provided that InterTrust's [*] to such fees for such certification tests
-------------
shall not exceed [*] dollars ($US[*]) in the aggregate.
(e) Translation. MBC agrees that InterTrust shall have the right to
-----------
approve all versions of InterTrust Technology, documentation provided by
MBC concerning MBC Products and Cooperative Applications (including
Distributable Documentation), legends and Notices required pursuant to
Section 6.3 hereof and other required notices that may be translated by or
for MBC into any language other than English.
(f) Promotion and Marketing. The Parties shall jointly participate
-----------------------
in, and from time to time (as they may agree) jointly fund, promotional,
marketing, and sales activities designed to: (i) increase industry
awareness of both InterTrust and InterTrust Technology, including, in
particular, InterTrust, and MBC, MBC Products, Cooperative Applications and
any services associated therewith; (ii) attract content developers and

material portion of the [*] (as defined in [*] hereto) at least one
embodiment of which is originally constructed and developed, or designed,
by [*], except to the extent such [*] may be incorporated by [*] in the
[*]. However, nothing in the foregoing shall be construed to restrict [*]
from the development, use or exploitation of any technology or the conduct
of any business in the [*] area, so long as such technology or business
substantially differs from, and does not include any material portion of,
the [*]. If [*] becomes aware that any of its planned activities may be
subject to the restrictions of this Section 6.1(h), [*] shall inform
[*] in writing of the nature of such planned activity, and, thereafter, the
Parties shall engage in good faith discussions having the objective of
determining whether such activities are subject to the restrictions of this
Section 6.1(h). On the other hand, as a precaution for [*], [*] shall, from
time to time, during the [*] inform [*] of any [*] which may become [*] and
is substantially similar to the [*] if [*] senior management become aware
of such substantially similar electronic commerce business.
Notwithstanding the foregoing and it being understood that (a) a research
group within [*] is currently developing the [*] (the [*]) and certain
Independently Developed Technology (as defined below) and (b) [*] has the
opinion that such [*] was originally developed from ideas and technology
not falling within the [*], [*] shall not be restricted from pursuing the
[*] and such [*] in the current development stage thereof. Nonetheless, due
to both Parties' concern that such [*] and/or such Independently Developed
Technology might be developed in the future in a manner falling within the
[*] (even if developed independently of and without reference to [*]
confidential information), to avoid potential conflicts or controversy with
respect to such development, the Parties agree (1) to set up the following
procedures and (2) that this Section 6.1(h) shall not preclude [*] from
promoting, using or exploiting any such [*] not based on [*] confidential
information and any Independently Developed Technology so long as [*]
abides by the following procedures:
(A) [*], prior to the Effective Date, establishes "Chinese Wall"
procedures, including such procedures set forth on Exhibit G hereto,
and throughout the duration of the [*] actively maintains such
procedures, to prevent the exposure of any member of the [*] to any
Chinese Wall Information (as such term is defined in this Section 6.1
(h), below)-- such procedures including mechanisms established to
effectively separate the working activities of members of the [*] from
all persons and groups within [*] that may have knowledge of, or
access or exposure to, such Chinese Wall Information;

(B) [*] employees and consultants follow such "Chinese Wall"
procedures; and
(C) [*] provides [*] with written notice thirty (30) days
before taking any action to plan or develop any product or service
that may include any [*] in any manner whatsoever, whether or not
based on Independently Developed Technology (or disclosing such plan
or development to any Person, or entering into discussions aimed at
allowing any Person to implement or employ such planned or developed
product or service).
As set forth above, "Independently Developed Technology" means any technology
----------------------------------
developed without access to, including any benefit from, any confidential [*]
Technology, Modified Technology and/or any related Confidential or Top Secret
Information (as such terms are defined in Section 9.1 hereof), or any [*]
Information (as defined in Exhibit G) that should be reasonably maintained as
confidential to protect InterTrust's commercial interests under this
Agreement, whether or not such technology embodies or includes any portion of
the [*] (such technology and information to be defined collectively as "the
"Chinese Wall Information").
------------------------
If [*] becomes aware of any breach of Sections (A) through (C) immediately above
(a "Compromising Event"), [*] shall immediately take such steps as appropriate
------------------
under the circumstances to cease such Compromising Event and to prevent the
reoccurrence of Compromising Events. [*] shall also, at a minimum: (w)
immediately inform InterTrust in writing of the occurrence of and
circumstances surrounding a Compromising Event; and (x) investigate the nature
and extent of the contamination caused by the Compromising Event (and report
such findings to [*] in writing). In addition, [*] shall take immediate and
effective measures to remedy all effects of such Compromising Event. If [*]
fails to take those actions set forth in subparagraphs (A), (C), and/or (w)
and (x) of this Section 6.1(h), or to promptly cure any other breach of this
Section 6.1(h) in the manner specified herein and in Section 12.2 (b) hereof,
InterTrust shall be entitled to immediately terminate this Agreement and to
the specific remedies set forth in Section 11.3, in addition to any other
remedies available to InterTrust under this Agreement, at law or in equity.
Promptly following an [*] notification to [*] as provided in subsection (C) of
this Section 6.1(h), [*] and [*] shall initiate discussions in good faith with
the objective of determining whether such [*] or [*] would include any material
portion of the [*]. If, as a result of such discussions, [*] and [*] agree that
such product or service: (y) would not include any material portion of the [*],
then this Section 6.1(h) shall not restrict [*] pursuit of such [*] or [*]; or
(z) would include a material portion of the [*], then [*] shall have the option
to promptly give up any pursuit of such technology or service using a material
portion of the [*] or to [*] upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to [*]
and fulfillment of the terms of Section [*], hereof. If, despite such
discussions, the Parties cannot agree and [*] believes that such planned product
or service would include any material portion of the [*]

-----
the term of this Agreement and for a period of five (5) years thereafter all
books, records, accounts, and technical materials regarding MBC's activities in

request, MBC will permit an auditor or agent of InterTrust's choice to examine
and audit, during a reasonable time (but no more than [*] every [*] ([*])
months), such books, records, accounts, documentation and materials, and take
extracts therefrom or make copies thereof for the purpose of verifying the

compliance with the license terms and other material obligations hereunder. MBC
shall pay any unpaid delinquent amounts within ten (10) days of InterTrust's
request and shall apply any overpayment toward future royalties due and payable
to InterTrust. To the extent such examination discloses an underpayment greater
than [*] percent ([*]%) of the sums paid to InterTrust by MBC during the
applicable period subject to such audit, and such underpayment is not due to
fraud or errors made by Persons other than MBC (except where such fraud or
errors should have been discovered by MBC in the exercise of reasonable

ARTICLE 9. CONFIDENTIALITY.
9.1 InterTrust Technical Information.
--------------------------------
(a) Classification of InterTrust Technology and Documents. InterTrust
-----------------------------------------------------
Technology (including Documentation) and other documents provided by
InterTrust to MBC hereunder shall be marked as one of the following: (i)
"Unclassified"; (ii) "Confidential"; or (iii) "Top Secret." MBC and its
employees shall exercise careful judgment when they are in possession of an
InterTrust document that has not been marked with one of the above-
described classifications. If any document provided by InterTrust to MBC
contains any technical information that is not marked as indicated above
and is not known with certainty to have been either publicly released by
InterTrust or otherwise classified as "Unclassified" by InterTrust, then
MBC, its employees and any other Person authorized to possess such
information shall treat the document as "Confidential," as provided under
Section 9.1 (b) hereof.
(b) Confidential Information. To the extent that MBC receives from
------------------------
InterTrust under this Agreement any InterTrust Technology or any other
information or technology that is marked "Confidential" when disclosed in
written form, or indicated as "Confidential" when disclosed orally
("Confidential Information"), MBC shall hold such Confidential Information
--------------------------
in strict confidence and in a manner that: (i) is sufficiently secure for
the character and content of the Confidential Information; and (ii) is not
less secure than procedures used by MBC to protect its comparably important
information and technology. MBC shall not, without InterTrust's prior
written consent, use, disclose, provide or otherwise make available any
Confidential Information to any Person, except to one or more of MBC's
permitted sublicensees as authorized under the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, and their employees. Each of such sublicensees and employees
shall have a reasonable need to know such Confidential Information, and
each shall operate under the same restrictions as MBC. Furthermore, in each
case of disclosure to an employee or authorized sublicensee, access to such
Confidential Information shall be allowed only to the extent necessary to
enable MBC or any such authorized sublicensee to exercise its license (or
sublicense) hereunder and/or as expressly allowed hereunder. MBC and any
such sublicensees, as the case may be, shall: (a) require their employees
having access to any portion of Confidential Information to strictly
maintain its confidentiality; and (b) ensure that each such employee shall
have executed with MBC and/or an authorized sublicensee (as applicable) a
written non-disclosure/non-use agreement in the form set forth on Exhibit E
hereto or as subsequently provided by InterTrust, or MBC's or such
sublicensee's applicable form agreement which shall effectively and
comparably bind such employee
CONFIDENTIAL
31
<PAGE>
to the same scope as InterTrust's form agreement, and which MBC's or
sublicensee's form agreement shall be subject to InterTrust's reasonable
prior written approval. MBC shall notify InterTrust promptly in writing of
any unauthorized disclosure or other misuse or misappropriation of any
portions of the Confidential Information. MBC and any sublicensee (as
appropriate) shall be fully responsible for any breach of MBC's or
sublicensees' obligations under this Agreement by any person to whom such
Confidential Information has been disclosed. Any obligation of MBC with
respect to Confidential Information pursuant to this Section 9.1(b) shall
expire thirty-six (36) months after disclosure of such information by
InterTrust to MBC.
(c) Top Secret Information. In order to protect InterTrust's rights,
----------------------
the rights of InterTrust licensees, and the secure interoperability and
reputation of InterTrust implementations, MBC shall treat any InterTrust
Technology or other confidential information that is either marked "Top
Secret" when disclosed in written form, or indicated as "Top Secret" when
disclosed orally ("Top Secret Information") in a manner not less secure
----------------------
than MBC's most secret information and, in all events in a manner
sufficient to reasonably ensure the security of such Top Secret
Information, given such great sensitivity of such Top Secret Information.
MBC shall not use, disclose, provide or otherwise make available such Top
Secret Information to any Person, except to not more than [*]
individual employees of MBC, each of whom has a direct need to know such
information or be exposed to such Top Secret Information (as agreed in each
case by InterTrust) and then only to the extent necessary for MBC to
exercise its rights and perform its obligations under this Agreement, and
none of whom shall receive a disclosure of any such Top Secret Information
until: (i) such employee becomes bound by personally executing an
InterTrust Top Secrecy Agreement (in the form set forth in Exhibit E hereto
or as subsequently provided by InterTrust) covering such information and
exposure; and (ii) an original executed copy of such agreement is received
by InterTrust, with return receipt provided to MBC, which such receipt may
be provided by fax communication if so requested in writing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, MBC and MBC employees described above shall
make no physical embodiments (for example, any reproduction or copy,
including descriptive notes) whatsoever of Top Secret Information, without
the prior express written authorization from InterTrust's Chairman of
Board, President or any other InterTrust Officer designated in a written
communication to MBC signed by InterTrust's Chairman of the Board (the
"Designated Officers"), nor shall MBC or such MBC employees disclose any
-------------------
Top Secret Information to any Person, except as described in this Section
9.1 (c). If MBC becomes aware that any Top Secret Information has been
disclosed or treated other than as set forth in this Section 9.1 (c),
and/or as specified in a Top Secrecy Agreement, MBC shall immediately
inform InterTrust of such occurrence and take immediate steps to correct
such compromise. MBC shall maintain a log of the employees accessing and
location of all originals and other tangible embodiments of all Top Secret
Information. MBC shall be fully responsible for any breach by any MBC
employee of this Agreement related to the unauthorized use or disclosure of
Top Secret Information.

9.2 MBC Technical Information. To the extent that InterTrust receives MBC
-------------------------
confidential information that is either marked "confidential" when disclosed in
written form or indicated as "confidential" when disclosed orally, under this
Agreement, InterTrust shall hold said MBC confidential information in confidence
in a manner that is sufficiently secure for the character and content of the
information and under no circumstances shall such confidential information be
held in a manner that is less secure than procedures used by InterTrust in
connection with its comparably important information. Except as to the
disclosure by MBC to InterTrust of the Modified Technology or such disclosures
inherent in the Certification Testing of MBC Products, Cooperative Applications
and/or any associated services pursuant hereto, and only to the extent expressly
specified by InterTrust Specifications, MBC shall not disclose or otherwise
provide or make available any confidential information of MBC which is directly
related to InterTrust Technology and InterTrust's business activities, without
first acquiring written approval from a Designated Officer of InterTrust.
InterTrust shall not disclose, otherwise provide or make available any MBC
confidential information it has received in any form to any Person who is not
bound by an applicable confidentiality agreement and has a reasonable need to
know such information. InterTrust agrees to notify MBC promptly in writing of
any unauthorized disclosure of MBC confidential information provided to
InterTrust which may come to the attention of an InterTrust officer. InterTrust
shall be fully responsible for any breach of InterTrust's obligations under this
Agreement by InterTrust or its employees, consultants, directors, principals, or
Affiliates. Any obligation of InterTrust to keep MBC information in confidence
shall expire thirty-six (36) months after disclosure of such information by MBC
to InterTrust.
9.3 Exceptions. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 9.1 (a), 9.1
----------
(b) and 9.2 above, and except as to "Top Secret" information as provided in
Section 9.1 (c), the confidentiality restrictions herein shall not apply to
Confidential Information that the recipient thereof can demonstrate: (i) is or
becomes generally known to the public through no breach of any of these
obligations, as of the date such information becomes so known; (ii) is or shall
have been independently developed by such recipient's employees who had no
access to such information; or (iii) is or shall have been rightfully received,
with no obligation of confidentiality or non-use, by such recipient from any
Person (other than as a result of another Person's breach of an obligation of
confidentiality to InterTrust), as of the date such information is so received.
9.4 Confidentiality of Agreement and Publicity. Except as otherwise
------------------------------------------
provided in Sections 6.1(h) and 9.3 hereof or as required by law or in
connection with a dispute between the Parties regarding the terms hereof,
neither Party hereto shall at any time, without the prior written consent of the
other Party, disclose the specific details of the terms and conditions of this
Agreement to any Person, other than Affiliates, employees, directors, investors
holding approximately one percent (1%) or more of the outstanding equity shares
and having no reasonably anticipated conflict of interest with the disclosing
party, potential investors who may purchase approximately one percent (1%) or
more of the outstanding equity shares, and/or financial institutions,
professional advisors and/or other consultants having a reasonable need to know
and covered by a confidentiality agreement sufficient in scope to protect the
Parties' rights and interests hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 9.4: (i) either
CONFIDENTIAL

Party may publicly discuss or otherwise disclose that an agreement exists
between the Parties to develop electronic commerce industry standards and the
Trading Model Cooperative Application, but may provide no further material

such disclosures to the extent permitted under this Section 9.4 in order to
comply with its obligations or enforce its rights under this Agreement.

information received during an audit or pursuant to a Certification Program as
provided herein, and all information concerning Certification Testing (including
any results thereof), and any and all payment information received by either

provided, however, that all licenses properly granted to end-users pursuant to
- -------- ------- ----
the then-existing Customer Agreements shall continue in full force and effect in
accordance with the terms thereof (provided that such licenses shall in no event
provide any rights with respect to Clearinghouse Functions). Each Party shall
deliver to the other Party within ten (10) days from the date of termination of
this Agreement all copies of all materials protected as Confidential Information
or Top Secret Information under this Agreement. Return of Confidential
Information shall be by commercially secure means as reasonably specified by the

13.1 Compliance with Law and Export Controls. The Parties shall at all
---------------------------------------
times comply with all applicable U.S., Japanese and foreign federal, state, and
local laws, rules and regulations relating to the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement and to the
CONFIDENTIAL
40
<PAGE>
InterTrust Technology Requirements and Modified Technology. Additionally, MBC
acknowledges that one or more aspects of the InterTrust Technology Requirements,
and/or Documentation and Assistance with respect thereto, is likely to be
subject to the export control laws, regulations and requirements of the United
States and other jurisdictions. InterTrust shall use reasonable efforts at
InterTrust's expense, and MBC shall at InterTrust's request reasonably assist
InterTrust at MBC's expense, to obtain any license or other approval that may be
required for InterTrust's initial export of the InterTrust Technology
Requirements and/or Documentation or information relating thereto from the
United States to Japan and MBC understands and agrees that certain modifications
to InterTrust Technology Requirements and/or Documentation may be required by
U.S. law and/or regulatory process and agrees to the implementation of such
modification by InterTrust, as necessary. In the event that InterTrust is unable
to comply with its obligations hereunder due to an inability to obtain any such
license or other approval, such inability to obtain approval shall be considered
a force majeure event under Section 14.12. MBC shall, at MBC's expense (subject
to InterTrust's right of approval), comply with all applicable laws (including
applicable U.S. export control laws and regulations) and obtain all necessary
governmental consents and approvals to: (i) further distribute the MBC Products
and Cooperative Applications (as well as other technology as expressly permitted
hereunder) that contain any part of the InterTrust Technology Requirements or
Modified Technology in accordance herewith; and (ii) further export and re-
export the InterTrust Technology Requirements and/or Modified Technology. MBC
shall: (a) promptly deliver, as available, to InterTrust documentation
confirming to InterTrust's reasonable satisfaction MBC's compliance with MBC's
responsibilities under this Section 13.1; and (b) obtain such consents and
approvals from appropriate governmental entities as InterTrust's counsel may
reasonably determine to be necessary (as relates to InterTrust Technology
Requirements or Modified Technology) for such further distribution, exportation
or re-exportation.
13.2 Failure to Obtain Export Approval. In the event MBC exercises its
---------------------------------
Option and, thereafter, InterTrust has not yet received and further fails to
obtain approval from relevant authorities ("Export Approval") to export SDK 1.0
---------------
to MBC within six (6) months after InterTrust's first commercial shipment of its
FCS SDK 1.0 product to a Person not subject to such Export Approval (the
"Conversion Date"), MBC shall receive a warrant (the "Warrant") to receive that
- ---------------- -------
number of shares of InterTrust stock (the "Warrant Shares") determined by the
--------------
following mathematical formula:
Number of Shares = License Fee/ Price Per Share
Where "License Fee" is equal to the license fee paid to InterTrust pursuant to
Section 7.1(a)(i) hereof and,
"Price Per Share" = Valuation/Outstanding Shares
Where "Valuation" is a number that is the greater of: (a) $US100,000,000; and
(b) one half (1/2) of the then-current value of InterTrust as determined in good
faith by InterTrust's Board of Directors as of the Conversion Date, and
"Outstanding Shares" is equal to the total number of InterTrust shares issued
and outstanding as of the Conversion Date. The Warrant Shares shall
CONFIDENTIAL
41
<PAGE>
be shares of InterTrust common stock and/or preferred stock as determined by
InterTrust's Board of Directors in good faith.
The Warrant shall be a written agreement with InterTrust containing terms and
provisions as reasonably established by InterTrust in view of, among other
things, the class of InterTrust stock to which such Warrant Shares belong and
InterTrust's extant agreements. Such Warrant shall not be convertable by MBC for
six (6) months after the Conversion Date and at any time during such six (6)
month period the Warrant shall terminate if InterTrust obtains Export Approval
and, notwithstanding any termination hereof, delivers or offers to deliver SDK
1.0 to MBC on the terms provided herein. If at any time subsequent to the
Conversion of such Warrant InterTrust obtains Export Approval and makes such SDK
1.0 available to MBC, and MBC accepts delivery of such SDK 1.0, InterTrust shall
have the right, exercisable in its discretion, to reacquire all such shares from
MBC by tendering to MBC such reasonable amount of interest on the sums then
tendered by MBC to InterTrust pursuant to Section 7.1(a) hereof as determined by
InterTrust's Board of Directors in good faith and as shall be set forth in the
Warrant Agreement.
