--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2                                         Approval and Certification

All proposed Publisher Hosting Services and Publisher Hosted Online Content must
go through the same approval process as set forth in the Xbox 360 PLA (i.e, the
stages for Concept approval, pre-Certification, Certification and Marketing
Materials approvals that apply to all aspects of the Software Title).  All
Publisher Hosting Services and Publisher Hosted Online Content is subject to the
same terms to which any Software Title and/or Online Content is subject per the
Xbox 360 PLA.  In order to pass a Software Title using XLSP through
Certification, Publisher may be required to submit additional information about
its server architecture and access to its server environment sufficient to
enable Microsoft to conduct resting of the Publisher Hosting Services.  In
addition to the requirements under this XLSP Addendum, Publisher acknowledges
and agrees that it will be bound by all XLSP policies set forth in the Xbox 360
Publisher Guide.

3                                         Privacy

As a condition for Certification, Microsoft may require Publisher to have a
separate terms of use or privacy policy under Publisher’s name and implemented
in a manner that is acceptable to Microsoft.  Microsoft must expressly consent
to any collection of Xbox Live User personally identifiable information and in
such event, Publisher may collect only what user data that is legitimately
necessary for the intended purpose and may not use any such user data relating
to the Xbox 360 and the Xbox Live service in any manner outside of the Publisher
Hosting Services. In the event Microsoft requires that Publisher use a separate
terms of use or privacy policy for the Publisher Hosting Services, then such
policies will clearly state that (i) that the Xbox Live User’s personal
information will be shared with Microsoft, and (ii) that the Xbox Live User will
be subject to the terms and conditions of the Microsoft Privacy Statement and
the Xbox Terms of Use. Such notice must contain hyperlinks to the Xbox Live
terms of use, privacy statement, and code of conduct currently located at
http://www.xbox.com/en-US/xboxlive.  Publisher agrees that any separate terms of
use or privacy policy will be in addition to and not conflicting with the Xbox
Live terms of use, privacy statement and code of conduct.

4                                         Beta Trials

At any time prior to Certification of the Software Title, Microsoft may require
that internal or public beta testing be conducted by or on behalf of Microsoft
(the “Beta Trials”).  Microsoft’s prior written approval, which may be withheld
in Microsoft’s sole discretion, is required for any Beta Trials.  All feedback
provided by Microsoft to Publisher as a result of the Beta Trials is advisory in
nature, and satisfactory feedback from the Beta Trials is not an indication that
the Publisher Hosted Online Content will be approved following the Certification
submission.  Likewise, Beta Trial feedback may include information regarding
violations of technical Certification requirements that could, if not addressed
by Publisher, result in Certification failure.

5                                         Publisher Hosting Services

5.1                                 Publisher Responsibility.  Publisher is
responsible for hosting the Publisher Hosted Online Content and providing the
Publisher Hosting Services.  Publisher shall operate the Publisher Hosting
Services in a manner that meets or exceeds standards of quality, performance,
stability, and security generally accepted in the industry, and those specific
requirements set forth below in this section and in the Xbox 360 Publisher
Guide.

5.2                                 Third Party Host.  If Publisher is using a
Third Party Host to provide the Publisher Hosting Services, Publisher may
provide to the Third Party Host access to only those portions of the XDK that
are necessary for the Third Party Host to perform Publisher’s Hosting Services. 
Prior to using the services of any Third Party Host, the Third Party Host and
Publisher must sign a Third Party Hosting Agreement substantially and materially
in the form set forth in Exhibit A, and Microsoft must accept and approve such
agreement in writing.  Publisher hereby unconditionally and irrevocably
guarantees the Third Party Host’s performance of the applicable obligations and
restrictions imposed by this XLSP Addendum and the Third Party Hosting
Agreement.

5.3                                 Publisher Hosting Service Requirements. 
Publisher shall adhere to the following requirements and upon request from
Microsoft, Publisher shall provide Microsoft with sufficient information to
verify compliance with these requirements:

5.3.1                        Operation.  Publisher shall monitor the operation
and performance of the Publisher Hosting Services, respond to technical and Xbox
Live User inquiries, and have rules, policies, and procedures for the Publisher
Hosting Services that are consistent with the standards defined below or as
otherwise provided by Microsoft from time to time in the event Microsoft
reasonably determines that the standards need to be updated in light of industry
standards.

5.3.2                        Reporting and Technical Policies.  The parties
shall follow the communication processes for sharing and updating each other’s
technical teams set forth in the Xbox 360 Publisher Guide. In addition,
Publisher shall follow the technical processes, policies, rules, and detailed
procedures for notification, escalation and reporting of scheduled and
unscheduled maintenance and problems that might occur with the Publisher Hosting
Services as set forth in the Xbox 360 Publisher Guide.  Each party is
responsible for notifying the other in the event that it discovers a technical
problem with the service of the other party.  Publisher shall provide Microsoft
five (5) business days advanced written notice of Publisher’s scheduled
downtimes, and Publisher shall use commercially reasonable efforts to schedule
maintenance downtimes for the Publisher Hosting Services at the same time as
Microsoft’s scheduled downtimes for Xbox Live. Upon notification of a scheduled
downtime for the Publisher Hosting Services, Microsoft may at its option request
an alternate time for such scheduled maintenance and Publisher shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate Microsoft’s request.

5.3.3                        Server Capacity and Load.  Publisher shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to support all users of its Publisher Hosting
Services, including operating sufficient computing resources for user traffic,
and shall immediately inform Microsoft of the failure of relevant Publisher
Hosting Services.  Publisher shall ensure that load on the Publisher Hosting
Services system does not exceed 75% of the measured capacity of the system,
where “capacity” is defined as the maximum load which can be sustained by the
system.  Publisher must describe in writing the tools and techniques to be used
in measuring system capacity and load, which tools and techniques must be
recognizable as industry standard practices and which must be agreed to in
advance by Microsoft.  Publisher shall measure the load on the Publisher Hosting
Services at intervals of no more than five (5) minutes.  Publisher shall retain
records of load measurements for no less than one week, and shall make such
records accessible to Microsoft upon request. Should changes to the system occur
which necessitate changes in the tools and techniques used to measure capacity
and load, or should the capacity of the system materially increase or decrease,
Publisher shall inform Microsoft within five (5)business days.

5.3.4                        Uptime.  The Publisher Hosting Services shall have
uptime of 99.5% per month, where uptime is defined as the portion of time when
the system is accessible and available to Xbox Live Users.  Uptime will be
calculated on a monthly basis assuming conformance with the industry standard of
monitoring uptime every five (5) minutes.  Publisher will report the uptime
statistics to Microsoft upon request.  Scheduled maintenance done pursuant to
Section 5.3.2 above may be deducted when calculating uptime.

5.3.5                        Service Location.  Publisher must locate all
servers used to operate the Publisher Hosting Services in approved territories
as provided for in the Xbox Publisher Guide.

5.3.6                        Troubleshooting; Notice to Users.  If the Publisher
Hosting Services are unable to establish a connection to Xbox Live, then
Publisher will work with Microsoft to troubleshoot the

3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

cause of the problem and diligently work to fix any such problem.  During any
time in which a Software Title or any Publisher Hosted Online Content using the
Publisher Hosting Services are unable to establish a connection to the Publisher
Hosting Services, then Publisher will display the appropriate message to the
Xbox Live User in accordance with the Xbox 360 Publisher Guide.

5.4                                 Customer Support.  As set forth in the Xbox
360 PLA, as between Microsoft and Publisher, Publisher is solely responsible for
providing customer support to Xbox Live Users for Publisher Hosted Online
Content and Publisher Hosting Services.  Except as expressly set forth herein,
Publisher acknowledges and agrees that Microsoft has no support responsibilities
whatsoever to Xbox Live Users for the Publisher Hosted Online Content and
Publisher Hosting Services.

5.5                                 Xbox Live Family Settings Features. 
Publisher Hosting Services and Publisher Hosted Online Content shall at all
times comply with the requirements of the Xbox 360 Publisher Guide and the
technical Certification requirements related to the family settings features of
the Xbox 360 and Xbox Live..

5.6                                 Law Enforcement and Regulatory
Requirements.  Publisher is responsible for ensuring that the Publisher Hosting
Services and Publisher Hosted Online Content comply with all legal and
regulatory requirements that apply in the jurisdictions in which such services
or content are made available.  Publisher may be required to provide Microsoft
with information including legal opinions to verify that the Publisher Hosting
Services and Publisher Hosted Online Content comply with applicable laws.  In
addition, Publisher agrees that it will promptly reply to and comply with any
requests by any law enforcement officials regarding the Publisher Hosting
Services or Publisher Hosted Online Content.

5.7                                 Publisher Contact.  As provided in the Xbox
360 Publisher Guide, Publisher shall designate at least one full-time employee
as a product or program manager to the services contemplated under this XLSP
Addendum, responsible for serving as Microsoft’s liaison, performing Publisher’s
obligations under this Agreement, and serving as primary contact to Microsoft.

6                                         Xbox Live User Content

6.1                                 Microsoft Approval.  Publisher may not allow
Xbox Live Users to create, share or otherwise provide Xbox Live User Content in
connection with a Software Title without Microsoft’s express approval.  If
Publisher wants to make Xbox Live User Content available as part of Publisher
Hosted Online Content, Publisher will provide to Microsoft a detailed
description of the process and procedures Publisher will have in place regarding
such Xbox Live User Content.

6.2                                 Claim of Infringement.  If Microsoft has
approved Publisher allowing Xbox Live User Content, Publisher shall maintain a
procedure for removing Xbox Live User Content in the event of a claim of
infringement, which procedure shall comply with all applicable laws and
regulations.  Microsoft may notify Publisher of any complaints Microsoft
receives related to Xbox Live User Content.  Publisher shall remove allegedly
infringing Xbox Live User Content upon receipt of a third party claim or notice
from Microsoft, but in any event no later than forty-eight (48) hours after
receipt of such claim.  Publisher agrees to notify Microsoft as soon as
commercially reasonable (and in any event no later than forty-eight (48) hours
after receipt) of any such claims of infringement and to update Microsoft as to
steps taken in response thereto.  In order to mitigate escalation of any such
claims, Microsoft may in its good faith discretion take control over any such
claim and be the sole source of communications to the claimant.

6.3                                 Additional Circumstances for Removal of Xbox
Live User Content.  Microsoft may in its discretion request that Xbox Live User
Content be removed by Publisher pursuant to the procedures described above for
Xbox Live User violations of the Xbox Terms of Use and/or Code of Conduct.
