6. Nature of license:

  Exclusive
   

7. License

  Subject to receipt by Licensor of the Royalty Advance described below, and subject to the exceptions and restrictions expressly set forth in this License, Licensor hereby grants to Licensee the exclusive (even as to Licensor) right and license, under Licensor's intellectual and proprietary rights other than Licensor's trademark rights, to create, develop, produce, publish, promote, market, advertise, manufacture, distribute, and otherwise exploit, during the Term, Licensed Products incorporating, based on, or otherwise derived from any element(s) of the Franchise. With respect to any third-party properties included in games or otherwise that are part of the Franchise (including, by way of illustration but not limited to, vehicle names and likenesses, music, actor name and likenesses, and third party software tools) that are listed on Exhibit A2, Licensee acknowledges that such properties are not part of the license grant hereunder. Licensor shall transfer or sublicense all licenses executed with such third parties which are transferable or sublicensable provided that any such transfer or sublicense does not impair Licensor's ability to publish any of the Catalog Titles. However, Licensor shall not object to or prevent Licensee from licensing such materials from any such third parties (including, but not limited to, the waiving of exclusivity rights, if any) and shall, at Licensee's request, offer reasonable assistance in facilitating any such third party licensing (including, but not limited to, offering introductions, contacts, and copies of third party contracts where not prohibited by confidentiality provisions). Additionally, Licensor shall provide a copy of any other documentation, including, but not limited to, relevant correspondences and file memorandums, bills, notices of breaches, disputes, that are material to the License in order to inform Licensee of the status of such contractual relationships between Licensor and such third parties.
   
  The parties agree that the rights granted to Licensee hereunder, including, without limitation, those rights granted in this Section 7, are rights in "intellectual property" within the scope of Section 101 (or its successors) of the United States Bankruptcy Code ("Bankruptcy Code"). Licensee shall have the rights set forth herein


- 3 -

     
  with respect to the Franchise when and as developed or created. In addition, Licensee, as a licensee of intellectual property rights hereunder, shall have and may fully exercise all rights available to a licensee under the Bankruptcy Code, including, without limitation, under Section 365(n) or its successors. In the event of a case under the Bankruptcy Code involving Licensor, Licensee shall have the right to obtain (and Licensor or any trustee for Licensor or its assets shall, at Licensee's written request, deliver to Licensee ) a copy of all embodiments (including, without limitation, any work in progress) of any intellectual property rights granted hereunder, including, without limitation, embodiments of the Franchise or any other intellectual property necessary or desirable for Licensee to use or exploit the Franchise or any Licensed Product or to exercise its rights hereunder.
   
  The Licensed Products created by or on behalf of Licensee or its sublicensees shall include a proper trademark and/or copyright notices indicating Licensor's ownership in the elements and rights licensed to Licensee under this License and contained in any such Licensed Products in a form to be provided by Licensor, provided that the failure to include any such notice shall not be deemed to be a material breach of this License by Licensee where Licensee's endeavors to promptly and prospectively correct such error.
   
  No later than five (5) days after the Effective Date, Licensor shall deliver or otherwise make available to Licensee all of the items set forth on Exhibit D and Exhibit D1 hereto.
   

8. Reserved Rights:

  Except for the Licensed Products created by or on behalf of Licensee, Licensor hereby reserves the sole and exclusive ownership of the Franchise. Subject to the distribution agreement referenced below in Section 15 and notwithstanding the exclusive license grant described in Section 7, Licensor reserves the exclusive right to continue to distribute during the Term all of the Catalog Titles released prior to the Effective Date. This license is also subject to the existing licenses specified in Exhibit C hereto and to existing licenses relating to the Franchise granted by Licensee or its affiliates (other than Licensor and Licensor's subsidiaries). All rights not expressly granted in this License are reserved by Licensor. As between Licensor and Licensee, Licensee shall be sole and exclusive owner of the Licensed Products created by or on behalf of Licensee excluding those elements or rights contained therein that are (x) in a Catalog Title and owned by Licensor or a third party or (y) set forth in Exhibit A. Except for Licensee's ownership of the Licensed Products created by or on behalf of Licensee: (a) nothing contained in this License shall be construed as an assignment or grant to Licensee of any ownership right in or to the Franchise, or any other right, title, or interest in or to the Franchise, except as expressly set forth herein; (b) all uses of the Franchise shall inure to the benefit of Licensor; and (c) Licensee recognizes the value of the good will associated with the Franchise and acknowledges that the Franchise,


- 4 -

     
  and all rights therein and the good will pertaining thereto, belong exclusively to Licensor.
 

9. Wireless Platform

  Notwithstanding the license grant described in Section 7 above, Licensee's right with respect to Licensed Products playable on wireless devices, including, but not limited to, personal digital assistants and mobile, cell and satellite phones (the "Wireless Platform") is limited, during the two (2) year period following the Effective Date, to the right to sublicense such right to an appropriate and qualified third party wireless game publisher on reasonable market terms. Licensee shall enter into such sublicense and cause the first Wireless Platform Licensed Product to be released in all major markets (i.e., United States and the major countries of the European Union) not later than six months after release of TDU2 (as hereinafter defined). Failure by Licensee to timely satisfy this commitment shall result in a reversion to Licensor of all rights with respect to Licensed Products on the Wireless Platform.
   
  After the expiration of the two year period commencing on the Effective Date, Licensee may, with respect to Licensed Products playable on the Wireless Platform, either sublicense its right to an appropriate and qualified third party wireless game publisher on reasonable market terms and with no obligation as to the markets of release, or publish itself, or together with an appropriate and qualified third party partner, such Licensed Products.
   

10. Advance Royalty:

  Licensee shall pay to Licensor a non-refundable fully recoupable advance against Royalties otherwise payable hereunder in the amount of One Million Dollars (USD) ($1,000,000.00) (the "Advance Royalty"). The Advance Royalty shall be paid to Licensor within 5 (five) business days after signature of this License. The Advance Royalty shall accrue interest at a yearly rate of fifteen percent (15%) throughout the Term (the Advance Royalty, as increased by interest, compounded annually, the "Cumulative Advance Amount"). The Cumulative Advance Amount shall be fully recoupable by Licensee from Royalties earned by and otherwise due to Licensor as per this License. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Licensor shall be required to repay any unrecouped portion of the Cumulative Advance Payment as part of the Liquidated Damages (as such term is defined in Section 20).
   

11. Royalties:

  Licensee shall pay Licensor a base royalty rate of 1.8% of Net Revenue actually received by Licensee from the sale of the Licensed Products created by or on behalf of Licensee.
   
  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensee shall pay to Licensor, in lieu of the foregoing royalties, a royalty on Net Revenue actually received by Licensee from the exploitation of Licensed Products on the Wireless Platform created by or on behalf of its sublicensees in the amount of ten percent (10%) of Net Revenue.


- 5 -

     

12. Net Revenue:

  All revenue received in connection with Licensed Products created by or on behalf of Licensee or its sublicensees less: (a) Chargebacks (as defined below) incurred by Licensee; (b) freight, taxes, insurance, duties, customs and brokerage fees incurred by Licensee; and (c) in the case of sublicenseing, agency fees, IP registration and protection and enforcement costs. "Chargebacks" are defined as price protections, returns, co-op, MDF and other customary deductions and discounts, taken or granted by Licensee to its customers specifically in connection with Licensed Products created by or on behalf of Licensee or its sublicensees, plus, except with respect to sublicensing revenue, an additional three percent (3%) of gross receipts deducted in order to reflect retailer-level deductions taken for early payment, volume discounts, and similar items, but excluding marketing expenses.
   

13. Performance Clause:

  (A) Release Commitment. Licensee shall develop (and/or have developed) and commercially release (and/or have commercially released) in all major markets (i.e., United States and the major countries of the European Union): (i) one (1) interactive software game based on the Franchise ("TDU2") for at least one Major Platform (as defined below) and the PC Platform within twenty (20) months of the Effective Date; and (ii) at least one additional interactive software game based on the Franchise ("TDU3") for at least one Major Platform and the PC Platform within 60 months of the Effective Date. A "Major Platform" shall mean Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, or the successors to any of the foregoing. Each of the two (2) above-mentioned interactive software games satisfying the minimum commitment must be a new stand-alone game and not a port, expansion pack or episodic content.
   
  (B) Distribution Commitment. Licensee shall make and maintain commercially reasonable arrangements for the manufacture, distribution, sale and timely delivery of sufficient quantities of each Licensed Product to distributors and retailers in all major markets (i.e., United States and the major countries of the European Union) to meet the demands of the marketplace, and its obligations to distributors and retailers consistent with commercially sound business practices.
 

14. Premiums

  No license is granted for the manufacture, sale or distribution of Licensed Products whose purpose is to be used exclusively as promotional items, in "advergaming," or as "Premiums," meaning any Licensed Products used exclusively for the purposes of increasing the sale of another item; promoting or publicizing any product or service; fundraising or as giveaways to motivate a sales force, merchant, consumer or any other person to perform a specific act; or acting as a tie-in.


- 6 -

     

15. Distribution of Catalog Titles:

20. License Termination:

  In the event that Licensee (i) fails to timely satisfy the release commitments set forth in Section 13(A) of this License; or (ii) fails to make timely payment of the Advance Royalty to Licensor as set forth in Section 10 of this License; or (iii) fails to pay Royalties to Licensor on a timely basis as set forth in Section 17 of this License; and any such breach set forth in the immediately preceding clauses (i), (ii) and/or (iii) is not cured within thirty (30) days of the receipt by Licensee of written notice thereof, then the Licensor shall have the right to terminate this License, in whole or in part, immediately upon a second written notice to the Licensee, in addition to any other rights or remedies Licensor may have.

21. Grant of Security Interest:

  As security for the payment and performance of Licensor's obligations under the License, including, but not limited to, the payment of the Liquidated Damages (collectively, the "Licensor Obligations"), Licensor has granted Licensee a second priority security interest in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Trademark License of Test Drive Franchise between Licensor and Licensee of even date herewith.
   

22. Limitation of Liability:

  EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT (i) THAT A PARTY IS OBLIGATED TO INDEMNIFY THE OTHER PARTY FOR THIRD PARTY CLAIMS OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT OR MISAPPROPRIATION, OR (ii) LICENSOR IS OBLIGATED FOR LIQUIDATED DAMAGES (AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN SECTION 20), IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, OR FOR THE LOSS OF ANTICIPATED PROFITS, EVEN IF NOTIFIED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
   

23. Entire Agreement:

  This License constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Any modification of this License must be in writing and signed by both parties hereto.
   

24. Assignment & Sublicensing:

  Licensee shall not assign any or all of the rights granted hereunder without the written approval of Licensor (which approval Licensor shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition), except that Licensee may, upon written notice to Licensor, assign or sublicense its rights and duties under this Agreement to any corporate entity that controls, is controlled by or is under the common control of Licensee. Except as set forth above, Licensee shall not have the right to sublicense all or any of the rights granted hereunder without the written approval of Licensor (which approval Licensor shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition), except that (a) Licensee shall have the right to sublicense the right to publish and distribute the Licensed Products on the Wireless Platform as set forth in Section 9 and (b) Licensee may grant third parties the right to exercise the rights granted to Licensee hereunder for the development, manufacturing, distribution, publishing, advertising, marketing and/or sale of the Licensed Products; provided, however,


- 11 -

     
  if any such grant constitutes a de facto assignment, Licensee must obtain Licensor's approval of such grant in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section; provided further that Licensee shall not grant any sublicenses to any third party to develop Licensed Products based on the Franchise for such third party's benefit as publisher; and provided further that Licensee shall not be relieved of its responsibility hereunder and any such third party shall be bound by the terms of this License in performing its obligations. Any assignment or sublicense by Licensee hereunder shall not relieve Licensee of its obligations to Licensor. This License shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each party.
   

25. Binding Agreement:

  The present License is intended to create a legally binding relationship between the parties.
   

26. Interpretation:

  Section headings are included in this License solely for convenience and are not intended to affect interpretation of any provision of this License.
   

27. Waiver, Remedies:

  No waiver by any party of any term or condition of this License shall be construed to be a waiver of such term or condition in the future, or of any preceding or subsequent breach of the same or any other term or condition of this License or any other agreement, nor shall any such waiver be binding unless written. All remedies, rights, undertakings, obligations and agreements contained in this License shall be cumulative, and none of them shall be in limitation of any other remedy, right, undertaking, obligation or agreement of any party to this License.
   

28. Severability:

  Any provision of this License that is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void, invalid or unenforceable shall be curtailed and limited only to the extent necessary to bring such provision within the requirements of the law, and such finding and curtailment shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this License.
 

29. Revival and Reinstatement of the Licensor Obligations:

  If the incurrence or payment of Licensor Obligations by the Licensor or the transfer to the Licensee of any property should for any reason subsequently be declared to be void or voidable under any state or federal law relating to creditors' rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent conveyances, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable payments of money or transfers of property (collectively, a "Voidable Transfer"), and if the Licensee is required to repay or restore, in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer, or elects to do so upon the reasonable advice of its counsel, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that the Licensee is required or elects to repay or restore, and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys fees of the Licensee related


- 12 -

     
  thereto, the liability of the Licensor and the grant of security under the Trademark License of Test Drive Franchise between Licensor and Licensee of even date herewith, automatically shall be revived, reinstated, and restored and shall exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never been made.
   

30. Notices:

  All notices, statements and other documents, and all approvals or consents that any party is required or desires to give to any other party, shall be given in writing and shall be served in person, by express mail, by certified mail, by overnight delivery, or by facsimile at the respective addresses set forth below, or at such other addresses as may be designated by such party.
