officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents from and against any
and all claims, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable out-of-pocket
attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to any allegation that the Licensed
Data or TMS Data Offerings infringes or otherwise violates any third party’s
patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret or other intellectual property right,
except to the extent such allegation relates to or arises out of any edits,
modifications or alterations Licensee has made to the Licensed Data or TMS Data
Offerings.

 

(b) By Licensee. Licensee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless TMS and its
officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents from and against any
and all third party claims, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable
out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to (a) any edits,
modifications or alterations Licensee makes to the Licensed Data or TMS Data
Offerings; and (b) any suits or actions alleging that any electronic product in
which Licensee uses or incorporates the Licensed Data or TMS Data Offerings (an
“Allegedly Infringing Licensee Product”) infringes or otherwise violates any
third party’s patent, trade secret, copyright, trademark or other intellectual
property right. If Licensee receives written notice of an alleged infringement
or believes that a claim of infringement is likely, then Licensee may (i) modify
the Allegedly Infringing Licensee Product so that it no longer infringes and
(ii) if such modifications cannot be obtained using commercially reasonable
efforts and on commercially reasonable terms, terminate this Agreement upon
notice to TMS.

Page -8-

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

not relieve the indemnifying party of its indemnification obligations unless

indemnified party permitting the indemnifying party to assume and control the
defense and settlement of such claim; and (iii) the indemnified party fully
cooperating in the defense or settlement of such claim. The indemnification
provisions of this Agreement shall survive expiration or termination of this

Data and TMS Data Offerings. Licensee shall not, by virtue of this Agreement or
by virtue of its access to the Licensed Data and TMS Data Offerings, obtain any
copyright or other proprietary right or interest in or to the Licensed Data or
TMS Data Offerings except the rights specifically granted to Licensee herein.

 

13. CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS.

 

(a) Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement, each party may
receive Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined) belonging to the other
party (the “disclosing party”) and shall not use such Confidential Information
except as set forth in this Agreement. Each receiving party shall disclose
Confidential Information of the disclosing party only to its employees or agents
who are required to have such information for the receiving party to carry out
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and who have been advised of the
obligations set forth in this Section 13(a). The receiving party shall promptly
notify the disclosing party of any actual or suspected misuse or unauthorized
disclosure of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information. For purposes of
this Agreement, “Confidential Information” of a disclosing party means any
information or material that the other party designates as confidential
(including without limitation the terms and conditions of this Agreement) unless
such information or material (i) is or becomes publicly known through no
wrongful act of the receiving party, (ii) is received from a third party without
restriction and without breach of any confidentiality obligation to the other
party, or (iii) is independently developed by the receiving party without any
use of the Confidential Information, as demonstrated by files created as of the
time of such independent development.

 

(b) Compelled Disclosures. If a receiving party is compelled by law, regulation
or a court of competent jurisdiction to disclose any of the other party’s
Confidential Information, the receiving party will promptly notify the
disclosing party so that it may seek a protective order or other appropriate
remedy. The receiving party agrees to cooperate at the disclosing party’s
expense in seeking such order or other remedy. If disclosure is ultimately
required, the receiving party will furnish only that portion of the Confidential
Information that is legally required, exercise reasonable efforts to obtain
assurance that it will receive confidential treatment, and continue to treat
such Confidential Information in accordance with Section 13(a).

 

(c) Confidentiality of Agreement. Each party agrees that the terms and
conditions of this Agreement shall be treated as the other party’s Confidential
Information; provided, however, that each party may disclose the terms and
conditions of this Agreement: (i) as required by any court or other governmental
body; (ii) as otherwise

 

Page -9-

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

required by applicable law; (iii) to legal counsel of the parties; (iv) pursuant
to the rules and regulations of any stock association or exchange on which the
party’s stock is traded; (v) in confidence, to accountants, banks, and financing
sources and their advisors; (vi) in confidence, in connection with the
enforcement of this Agreement or rights under this Agreement; or (vii) in
confidence, in connection with a merger or acquisition of one of the parties or
proposed merger or acquisition of one of the parties. Neither party shall issue
any statement or communication to any third party (other than their respective
agents) regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, including, if
applicable, the termination of this Agreement and the reasons therefor, without
the consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, except that this restriction shall be subject to the parties’
obligations to comply with applicable securities laws (and in such event each
party shall use reasonable efforts to provide the other party with a copy of any
such statement or communication in advance of such issuance). For the purpose of
clarity, the parties may disclose in confidence the terms, conditions and
existence of this Agreement to any third parties as necessary to fulfill their
respective obligations, and exercise their respective rights under this
Agreement.

 

(d) Tax Disclosure. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
each party to this Agreement (and any employee, representative, or other agent
of the parties to this Agreement) may disclose to any and all persons, without
limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions
or other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment
and tax structure; provided however, that such disclosure shall only be made to
the extent reasonably necessary to comply with any applicable federal or state
securities laws. For the purposes of the foregoing sentence, (i) the “tax
treatment” of a transaction means the purported or claimed federal income tax
treatment of the transaction, and (ii) the “tax structure” of a transaction
means any fact that may be relevant to understanding the purported or claimed
federal income tax treatment of the transaction. Thus, for the avoidance of
doubt, the parties acknowledge and agree that the tax treatment and tax
structure of any transaction does not include the name of the other party to
this transaction or any sensitive business information (including, without
limitation, the name and other specific information about the other party’s
proprietary rights or Confidential Information disclosed pursuant to this
Agreement) unless such information may be related or relevant to the purported
or claimed federal income tax treatment of the transaction.

 

14. POST-TERMINATION. On termination or expiration of this Agreement: (i) all
rights granted by TMS under this Agreement shall immediately terminate; (ii)
Licensee shall within [*]after such termination cease to display, reproduce,
retransmit or otherwise use any Licensed Data or TMS Data Offerings; (iii)
within [*]after such termination, Licensee shall purge all Licensed Data and TMS
Data Offerings from all of its [*]; (iv) once [*]have passed from such
termination Licensee will not use for any purpose thereafter any information
included in or derived from the Licensed Data or TMS Data Offerings; and (v)
Licensee shall within [*]after such termination return to TMS any software or
other materials provided by TMS under this Agreement. Upon termination or

requested with respect to the omitted portions.

breach of its license grant restrictions, TMS shall continue to provide Licensee
with Licensed Data and TMS Data Offerings at Licensee’s written request, at the
rates specified in this Agreement and in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, for up to [*]following such termination or
expiration. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon termination or
expiration of this Agreement, Licensee shall not be required to purge Licensed
Data or TMS Data Offerings from any of Licensee’s customers’ consumer devices to
which Licensee supplied Licensed Data or TMS Data Offerings during the term of
this Agreement.

 

15. GOVERNING LAW; VENUE. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted
under the laws of the State of Illinois, excluding Illinois’ choice of law
rules. Any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in
Chicago, Illinois. Both parties hereby irrevocably consent to jurisdiction and
venue in the state and federal courts located in Chicago, Illinois for purposes
of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

 

16. ASSIGNMENT. TMS may assign this Agreement without the prior consent of
Licensee. Licensee shall not assign its rights under this Agreement without TMS’
prior written consent except pursuant to a transfer of all or substantially all
of Licensee’s business and assets, whether by merger, sale of assets, sale of
stock or otherwise. Each party’s rights and obligations pursuant to this
Agreement and any amendments thereof will bind and inure to the benefit of such
party’s permitted successors or assignees.

 

17. PUBLICITY. TMS shall have the right to use the name of Licensee in
publicity, advertising, and sales promotion with the prior consent of Licensee,
such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, TMS will not be required to obtain Licensee’s prior consent to
include Licensee’s name in public lists of TMS clients.

 

18. NO JOINT VENTURE CREATED. Nothing in this Agreement and its performance
shall be construed as creating a joint venture, partnership or agency between
Licensee and TMS.

 

19. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement and its Exhibits contain the entire
understandings of TMS and Licensee concerning the subject matter hereof, and
supersede and cancel all prior understandings, agreements, representations
(whether oral or written) between TMS and Licensee regarding the subject matter
hereof. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and
any exhibits hereto, the terms of this Agreement prevail. Neither party shall be
bound by, and each party specifically objects to, any term, condition or other
provision that is different from or in addition to the provisions of this
Agreement (whether or not it would materially alter this Agreement) and which is
proffered by the other party in any correspondence or other document, unless the
party to be bound thereby specifically agrees to such provision in writing. This
Agreement may only be amended by a subsequent writing signed by an authorized
representative of TMS and Licensee.
