SECTION 5
MARKETING AND DATA LOADERS
5.1 INCLUSION OF STARSIGHT DATA LOADER
5.1.1 Microsoft, as partial consideration for the licenses and rights
granted to it herein, agrees that all Microsoft EPG Products shall conform to
each of the following:
(a) Microsoft shall deliver the applicable StarSight Data
Loader with all Microsoft EPG Products irrespective
of whether the StarSight Service is available to
permit the display of local broadcast TV listings
data pursuant to a StarSight subscription (whether
that service is free or otherwise). It is expressly
understood between the parties that a service
providing only satellite or other national TV
broadcast listings (i.e., not including local
broadcast TV listings data) shall not be considered a
service that provides local broadcast TV listings
data.
(b) Microsoft shall not deliver as part of the Microsoft
EPG Product any other Data Loader for a service that
provides local broadcast TV listings.
5.1.2 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.1.1(b), in the event,
despite Microsoft's best efforts, a potential Microsoft licensee who is also a
[REDACTED***] or who has a [REDACTED***] or other [REDACTED***] (e.g., via
contract) in a [REDACTED***] a Microsoft [REDACTED***] as a consequences of the
[REDACTED***] described in Sections [REDACTED***] and [REDACTED***] then
Microsoft may [REDACTED***] offer and license to the licensee a Microsoft
[REDACTED***] which does not [REDACTED***] described in Sections [REDACTED***]
and [REDACTED***] Microsoft shall [REDACTED***] the StarSight Data Loader as
required by Section 5.1.1(a) with all Microsoft [REDACTED***]. As compensation,
for the foregoing [REDACTED***] Microsoft shall pay the license fees described
in Section [REDACTED***].
5.1.3 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.1.1(b), in the event
the StarSight local broadcast TV listings data service is not available in a
geographic region at the time a Version of a Microsoft EPG Product is introduced
in such region, then Section 5.1.1(b) shall not apply to such
- --------------------------------------------
*** Confidential treatment requested pursuant to a request for confidential
treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Omitted
portions have been filed separately with the Commission.
-7-
<PAGE>
Version. The Microsoft EPG Product, however, shall still include a StarSight
Data Loader, except as provided below, so that if and when the StarSight data
service becomes available in such region ft may be used with the Microsoft EPG
Product. Microsoft, prior to the introduction of a new Version, is not required
to include the StarSight Data Loader in circumstances where it is unlikely the
StarSight data service will. be available in a particular geographic area based
upon written confirmation to that effect by StarSight and when, by the nature of
the hardware on which the Microsoft EPG Product is loaded, storage limitations
exist. In the event StarSight fails to respond to Microsoft's request for
"written confirmation" within twenty (20) days of Microsoft's written request,
Microsoft may proceed absent written confirmation from StarSight. Microsoft will
also promptly introduce a new Version of the Microsoft EPG Product which
complies with the requirements of Sections 5.1.1(a) and (b), by removing the
other Data Loader in such new Version, when the StarSight data service becomes
available in such region.
5.2 MARKETING REQUIREMENTS
5.2.1 Microsoft, as partial consideration for the licenses and rights
granted to it herein, agrees that all Microsoft EPG Products shall conform to
each of the following:
(a) At least with the same frequency it displays the
Microsoft logo, if and when displayed, Microsoft
shall prominently display the StarSight logo in all
Microsoft EPG Products (including, to the extent
applicable, Windows 95 and/or successor products):
(i) during the EPG set up routine;
(ii) on the EPG display;
(iii) with reference to the offer of the trial period
described in Section 5.6; and
(iv) to StarSight Service subscribers (1) when
StarSight information is displayed and (2) when
other EPG advertising and service related
screens (if any) are displayed.
(b) The StarSight logo will be the only logo for a local
broadcast TV listings service shown on the EPG
display of any Microsoft EPG Product which actively
uses the StarSight Data Loader.
(c) Microsoft shall give credit to StarSight in an "about
box" or equivalent screen, in all Microsoft EPG
Products including those products identified in
Sections 5.1.2 and 5.1.3. An example of such language
is:
"StarSight Logo" Features of this product are
licensed from
StarSight Telecast, Inc.
-8-
<PAGE>
(d) Microsoft shall prominently display the StarSight
logo on the front of any hardware product made by or
for Microsoft that includes a Microsoft EPG Product
and on the face of any accompanying Microsoft remote
control device.
(e) Microsoft shall make commercially reasonable use of
the StarSight Trademarks (both the word and design
marks) in connection with the marketing or
advertising of the EPG functionality of a Microsoft
EPG Product, provided the StarSight EPG service is
available for use in connection with such Microsoft
EPG Product in the applicable geographic area.
Microsoft shall not incorporate into any Microsoft
EPG Product the logo or trademark of any competing
(i.e., non-StarSight) EPG service for local broadcast
TV listings subject to the provisions of Sections
5.1.2, 5.2.2 and/or 7.2. Microsoft's use of the
StarSight Trademarks (both the word and design marks)
shall cover the following materials and advertising:
(i) manuals and user documentation (whether
printed or in electronic form);
(ii) product specification sheets;
(iii) point-of-purchase materials;
(iv) sales training materials;
(v) TV/radio advertising;
(vi) in-box materials;
(vii) consumer magazine advertising;
(viii) trade journals and related advertising; and
(ix) packaging.
However, the foregoing shall not require Microsoft to
mention StarSight or display the StarSight logo on
every occasion listed in this Section 5.2.1(e) where
EPG functionality is described or discussed, so long
as this Section 5.2.1(e) is substantially met.
(f) Microsoft shall provide the functionality in
Microsoft EPG Product software to display an offering
message to the consumer in the EPG set up routine or
other appropriate place to encourage the consumer to
subscribe to the StarSight service and to display a
message to alert the customer to renew the StarSight
service when renewal is due; provided that such
functionality shall not be a generalized messaging
function to enable communication with users.
5.2.2 Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.2.1(a), 5.2.1(b) and
5.2.1(e), in the event the initial execution of the EPG set-up routine of a
Microsoft EPG Product is not able to connect to a data transmission/delivery
mechanism for StarSight's local broadcast TV listings data in any given
geographic region because such mechanism is not available, or if the user
declines to sign up for the StarSight service (whether that service is free or
otherwise), then the set-up routine may [REDACTED***] on the EPG display; but
only on the condition that the Microsoft EPG Product shall allow the user, at
[REDACTED***] for the StarSight service at a

later date, whether that occurs as a result of the availability of the
service in that geographic area or otherwise, in which case the [REDACTED***]
shall appear in the EPG display if and as required pursuant to Sections 5.2.1(a)
and (b). In all cases, however, the provisions of Section 5.2.1(c) shall apply.
For the purposes of this Section 5.2.2, a "data transmission/delivery mechanism"
shall generally mean without limitation any broadcast data transport provided to
the consumer as part of a normal cable, telephony, airwave or satellite service.
In the event the StarSight data service is not available on a "data
transmission/delivery mechanism" which mechanism is generally competitive in
terms of cost, availability and service to the "data transmission/delivery
mechanism" for other EPG-related services available to consumers in the
particular geographic region, then the StarSight mechanism shall not be
considered a "data transmission/delivery mechanism" for the purposes of this
Section, but only so long as the StarSight "data transmission/delivery
mechanism" is not generally competitive.
5.3 LICENSE FOR STARSIGHT TRADEMARKS
5.3.1 StarSight grants to Microsoft and Microsoft accepts a worldwide,
nonexclusive, royalty-free license to use the StarSight Trademarks solely in
connection with the marketing and promotion of StarSight as set forth in Section

the form set forth on Appendix C unless otherwise approved in writing by
StarSight and shall include the designation(TM) or (R), as instructed by
StarSight. Microsoft agrees to use its best efforts to comply with all
applicable laws and regulations pertaining to the proper use and designation of
StarSight Trademarks in each country in which Microsoft uses the StarSight
Trademarks. Microsoft shall not have the fight to use the StarSight Trademarks

effect until the expiration of the last to expire of the licensed patents.
9.2 Either party may terminate this Agreement or any license granted by
it hereunder upon written notice to the other party in the event that the other
party breaches a material obligation or warranty hereunder, and fails to cure
such breach within sixty (60) days after written notice by the non-breaching
party. A breach of Section 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.5 and 7.4, failure to make a payment
under Section 6 and breach of any confidentiality obligation under Section 1 0
including the NDA set forth in Section 10.1 shall be among the acts considered
to be a breach of a material obligation.
9.3 The provision of Sections 6.1.2 through 6.1.5, 6.2, 7.4, 8 and 10
and any other provision which by its nature is intended to survive termination,
shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement. Termination of
this Agreement or any license granted herein shall not
-21-
<PAGE>
affect Microsoft Licensed Products or StarSight Licensed Products distributed
prior to the date of such termination.
9.4 During the term of this Agreement, and provided the parties are in
material compliance with the terms hereof, the parties shall in good faith
negotiate, and grant to each other on terms agreeable to both parties, any other
additional licenses under Microsoft intellectual property rights and StarSight
intellectual property rights as may be required and/or requested by either party
to continue the business contemplated by this Agreement.
SECTION 10
CONFIDENTIALITY
10.1 The terms and conditions of this Agreement and information
provided and or exchanged pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed
"Confidential Information" and subject to the terms and conditions of the
Non-Disclosure Agreement dated April 1, 1996 (the "NDA"), as amended, between
Microsoft and StarSight, except that (1) the five (5) year period of Section
2(a) thereof shall be amended to be coextensive with the term of this Agreement,
and (2) the second sentence of Section 4(g) thereof shall be deleted and Section
12.8 hereof shall be substituted therefor. Any conflict between the terms of the
NDA and the terms of this Agreement shall be resolved in favor of the terms of
this Agreement.
10.2 Microsoft acknowledges that the StarSight Authorization Codes and
StarSight Protocols are highly confidential and that unauthorized use or
disclosure of such information could significantly damage the business of
StarSight. In the event Microsoft obtains rightful possession or knowledge of
StarSight Authorization Codes pursuant to this Agreement then, in addition to
its other obligations under this Section 10, Microsoft agrees that no more than
one (1) master copy and one (1) backup copy of StarSight Authorization Codes and
StarSight Protocols shall be made or maintained ("Authorized Copies"). Such
Authorized Copies will be maintained in a locked room or container when not in
use and will be accessible only by a limited number of employees who require
access to the StarSight Authorization Codes or StarSight Protocols for
incorporation into the Microsoft Licensed Products. Microsoft agrees to maintain
a written record of individual employees that actually accessed the StarSight
Product Authorization Codes or StarSight Protocols, and shall provide such
information to StarSight upon request.
10.3 The parties agree to jointly announce the signing of this
Agreement once it is fully executed. Neither party shall make any public
announcement about or otherwise disclose to any third party the terms or content
of this Agreement or the parties' discussions regarding the subject matter of
this Agreement-without the written consent of the other party, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Either party may make at any time
announcements which are advised to be made by the Parties' respective outside
counsel or that are required by applicable law, regulatory bodies, stock
exchange or stock association rules, so long as the party so required to make
the announcement, promptly after learning of such requirement, notifies the
other party of such requirement and discusses with the other party in good faith
the exact wording of any such
-22-
<PAGE>
announcement. Each party, as applicable, agrees to request "confidential
treatment" from the appropriate regulatory authority if this Agreement must be
included as part of any public filing.
SECTION 11
SUB-LICENSES
11.1 All licenses granted herein include the right of the licensee to
grant sub-licenses of or within the scope of such licenses to a party's
Subsidiaries. Each Subsidiary so sub-licensed shall be bound by the terms and
conditions of this Agreement (other than the payment or royalties as provided in
Section 6, which shall remain the obligation of Microsoft and StarSight,
respectively) as if it were named herein in the place of such licensee. The
licensee represents to the licensor that it has the power to bind each such
Subsidiary to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and agrees to, and
shall take whatever action is necessary to, so legally bind its Subsidiaries, or
in the alternative, the licensee hereby guarantees the performance of the
obligations of its Subsidiaries hereunder. The licensee shall pay and account to
the licensor for all payments due hereunder in respect of the exercise by any
Subsidiary of the licensee of the sub-license granted to it hereunder. Any
sub-license granted to a Subsidiary shall terminate on the date such Subsidiary
ceases to be a Subsidiary.
SECTION 12
MISCELLANEOUS
12.1 Waiver. A party's failure at any time to require the other party's
performance of any obligation under this Agreement shall not affect such party's
right to require subsequent performance of that obligation. Any waiver of any
breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of
any continuing or succeeding breach of such provision, waiver or modification of
the provision itself, or any modification of any right under this Agreement.
12.2 Assignment. Neither party may assign or otherwise transfer this
Agreement, or any of its rights, licenses or obligations hereunder, to any third
party without the prior written consent of the other and any such attempted
assignment or transfer shall be void, except in the case of the sale of all or
substantially all of the assigning party's assets relating to the licensed
products (in which case this Agreement shall be fully binding on the licensee's
successor in interest).
12.3 Express Licenses Only. The rights and licenses granted in this
Agreement are limited to those expressly recited. No rights, licenses or other
grants are made by implication, estoppel, exhaustion, operation of law or
otherwise.
12.4 Patent Marking. Microsoft shall, except as may otherwise be agreed
to in writing (such as to account for additional StarSight Licensed Patents
which issue), provide the following notice or a reasonable variation to be
agreed to in advance by the parties in writing on all Microsoft EPG Product and
with any accompanying instruction material package:
"StarSight Licensed: The manufacture and sale of EPG features
of this product was licensed from StarSight Telecast, Inc.,
which license
-23-

5,353,121; 5,479,266; and 5,479,268."
For each unit of Microsoft EPG Product which is or includes hardware, the above
notice or the reasonable variation of such notice as mutually agreed to in
writing must be affixed to the hardware and be visible. For each unit of
Microsoft EPG Product which is embodied in software this notice may appear in an
"about-box" or may be embedded as a character (Ascii) string which appears in
the executable software code when it is viewed or printed. Microsoft's failure
to comply with the foregoing requirements shall not constitute a breach of this
Agreement; provided, upon learning of such failure, Microsoft promptly corrects
it.
12.5 Each party as "Granting Party" grants to the other party the right
to obtain upon request and to the extent and subject to the terms and conditions
under which the Granting Party has the right to do so at the time of such
request, a license of or within the scope granted herein with respect to any
patent which would otherwise qualify as a Licensed Patent of the Granting Party,
but for payment to third parties as set forth in the definition of Licensed
Patents. Such license shall be granted under a separate agreement at a royalty
rate or other payment payable by the Granting Party to a third party for
granting of such license or the exercise of rights thereunder.
