      Title" shall mean the single software product as described in
      the applicable Exhibit A(i.e.,Exhibit A-1, Exhibit A-2, or Exhibit
      A-n, as the case may be), developed by Licensee, and running on Xbox. A
      Software Title shall include the improvements and patches thereto (if and
      to the extent approved by Microsoft), but shall not include any "prequel" or "sequel." If
      Microsoft approves one or more additional concept(s) for another single
      software product proposed by Licensee to run on Xbox, pursuant to the procedure
      set forth in Section 2.1.1 below and the Xbox Guide (as defined in Section

2.      DEVELOPMENT; DELIVERY; APPROVAL

2.1    Software
      Title Development.Licensee's development activities with respect to
      each Software Title shall be in accordance with the development schedule
      set forth in the applicable Exhibit A-n. Furthermore, Licensee agrees to
      be bound by all provisions contained in the then-applicable version of
      the "Xbox Guide", the current version of which Microsoft or its
      affiliate will deliver to Licensee when it is completed, after the execution
      of this Agreement. Licensee understands and agrees that Microsoft may,
      in its discretion, supplement, revise and update the Xbox Guide from time
      to time and that upon Licensee's receipt of the applicable supplement,
      revision or updated version, Licensee automatically shall be bound by all
      provisions of the then-current Xbox Guide; Microsoft will specify in each
      such supplement, revision or updated version a reasonable effective date
      of each change if such change or revision is not required to be effective
      immediately. If Licensee proceeds with the development of a Software Title,
      Licensee shall deliver each milestone (as described in this Section 2.1)
      to Microsoft for approval in writing. All certification and playtesting
      (and applicable fees therefor, if any) will be in accordance with the then-applicable
      version of the Xbox Guide. If Microsoft does not approve Licensee's submission
      for a given milestone then Licensee shall either correct the problems that
      contributed to the lack of approval or, if Microsoft gives Licensee written
      notice to cease development, Licensee shall immediately cease all development
      activities for the applicable Software Title's subsequent milestones. Each
      successive milestone shall comply in all material respects with the characteristics
      of previously approved milestones. Each software milestone shall be delivered
      in compiled object code form.

2.1.1    Concept.Licensee
    shall deliver to Microsoft a written and completed concept submission form
    (in the form provided by Microsoft to Licensee), including without limitation:
    (a) a detailed description of the Software Title, including but not limited
    to (to the extent applicable) title, theme, plot, characters, play elements,
    and technical specifications; (b) the identities of any proposed subcontractors,
    and general information about the principal team of individual developers,
    and (c) an explanation of the design, technical and marketing suitability
    of the Software Title. Evaluation of the proposed design will be based on
    criteria including, but not necessarily limited to, the following: (i) originality;
    (ii) play breadth and depth; (iii) playability; (iv) replayability and long-term
    interest; and (v) theme, characters and storyline. Technical evaluation of
    the concept will be based on criteria including, but not necessarily limited
    to, feasibility of execution and usage of system capabilities (such as graphics,
    audio, hard drive, play control, online capabilities and peripherals). Marketing
    suitability will be evaluated

---



| |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Xbox PLA No. 20110
| |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | ------------------

based on criteria including, but not necessarily limited to, the following: (i) market viability; (ii) Licensee's marketing commitment (if any); (iii) suitability to the target demographic; and (iv) overall fit with the Xbox certified software products portfolio.

2.1.2    Preliminary Versions.Licensee may, but will not be required to, deliver to Microsoft certain preliminary versions of the Software Title, as addressed in the Xbox Guide.

2.1.3    Feature-Complete
      Version.Licensee shall deliver to Microsoft a feature­ complete
      version of the Software Title (the "Beta Version"), which includes
      all features of the Software Title and such other content as may be required
      under the Xbox Guide. Concurrently with delivery of the Beta Version, Licensee
      will disclose in writing to Microsoft the details about any and all so-called "hidden
      characters," "cheats," "easter eggs," "bonus
      video and/or audio," and similar elements included in the Beta Version
      and/or intended to be included in the final release version of the Software
      Title.

2.1.4    Final Release Version.Licensee
    shall deliver to Microsoft, Licensee's proposed final release version of
    the applicable Software Title that is complete and ready for manufacture
    and commercial distribution, with the final content rating certification,
    with identified program errors corrected, and with any and all changes previously
    requested by Microsoft implemented. However, nothing herein will be deemed
    to relieve Licensee of its obligation to correct program bugs and errors,
    whenever discovered (including without limitation after Commercial Release),
    and Licensee agrees to correct such bugs and errors as soon as possible after
    discovery (provided that, with respect to bugs or errors discovered after
    Commercial Release of the applicable Software Title, Licensee will use commercially
    reasonable efforts to correct the bug/error in all Finished Product Units
    manufactured after discovery). In addition, Licensee will comply with all
    certification procedures, guidelines and standards set forth in the then-applicable
    version of the Xbox Guide. Licensee shall not distribute the Software Title,
    nor manufacture any Finished Product Units intended for distribution, unless
    and until Microsoft shall have given its final certification and approval
    of the final release version of the Software Title, and Microsoft shall have
    provided the code for the final release version to the applicable Authorized
Replicator(s).

2.1.5    Playtesting.Microsoft will playtest the Beta Version and proposed final release version of each Software Title; if Licensee delivers preliminary versions of a Software Title, Microsoft may (but will not be obligated to) playtest such versions. Microsoft will provide written comments to Licensee regarding the results of its playtest results, and Licensee shall comply with any requests made by Microsoft to improve the applicable Software Title based on such playtest results. Licensee acknowledges that, notwithstanding its receipt of approvals from Microsoft for prior milestones or versions during the development process, Licensee's proposed final release version of each
Software Title must be approved by Microsoft, as set forth in the Xbox Guide. In addition to conforming with the approved concept, with all technical specifications, and with all other requirements set by Microsoft during the development and approval process, each Software Title must achieve a satisfactory rating in final playtesting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Licensee acknowledges and understands that, in part, the results of playtesting will be subjective, that Microsoft will have the right to deny final approval based on its determination, and that Licensee has and will have no expectation of final approval of any Software Title regardless of any approvals or assessments given or made by Microsoft, informally or formally, at any time.

2.1.6    Art & Marketing Materials.Licensee shall deliver to Microsoft for approval all Art & Marketing Materials as and when developed, whether during development activities or thereafter. Licensee shall not distribute any specific Art & Marketing Materials unless and until Microsoft shall have given its final certification and approval of the specific item.

2.2    Content Rating.Licensee understands and agrees that, without limitation, Microsoft will not give final certification and approval of a Software Title unless and until Licensee shall have obtained, at Licensee's sole cost, a rating of no higher than "Mature (17+)" or its equivalent from the appropriate rating bodies for the applicable Territory (such as, ESRB, ELSPA, etc.)and/or any and all other independent content rating authority/authorities reasonably designated by Microsoft. Licensee shall make any changes

---



| |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Xbox PLA No. 20110
| |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | ------------------

to the Software Title required to obtain a rating of no higher than "Mature (17+)" (or its equivalent). In no event shall Licensee distribute any Software Title under an "Adults Only" or higher rating (or equivalent rating). Licensee shall include the applicable rating(s) prominently on Finished Product Units, in accordance with the applicable rating body guidelines.

2.3    Development Kit License.Microsoft or its affiliate will offer to Licensee the opportunity to enter into one or more development kit license(s) (each an "XDK License") pursuant to which Microsoft would license to Licensee software development tools and hardware to assist Licensee in the development of Software Titles, including without limitation certain sample code and other redistributable code which Licensee could incorporate into Software Titles, on such terms and conditions as are contained in the XDK License.

2.4    Subcontractors.Licensee shall not use any subcontractors or any other third parties to perform software development work in connection with a Software Title unless and until (i) the proposed subcontractor or other third party and (ii) Microsoft shall have executed an XDK license; provided that nothing contained herein will be deemed to require Microsoft or its affiliate to execute an XDK License with any particular person or entity if Microsoft or its affiliate determines that it is not appropriate to execute such an XDK License.

2.5    Changes
      of Requirements by Microsoft.Unless otherwise reasonably specified
      by Microsoft at the respective time: (a) after approval by Microsoft of
      the Beta Version of a Software Title, Licensee will not be obligated to
      comply, with respect to such Software Title only, with any subsequent changes
      made by Microsoft to the technical or content requirements for Software
      Titles generally in the Xbox Guide; and (b) subject to the immediately
      preceding clause (a), any changes made by Microsoft in Branding
      Specifications or other requirements after final certification of a Software
      Title by Microsoft will be effective as to such Software Title only on
      a "going forward" basis (i.e., only to such Art & Marketing
      Materials and/or Finished Product Units as are manufactured after Microsoft
      notifies Licensee of the change), unless (i) the change can be accommodated
      by Licensee with insignificant added expense, or (ii) Microsoft pays for
      Licensee's direct, out-of-pocket expenses necessarily incurred as a result
      of its retrospective compliance with the change.

3.    RIGHTS
      AND RESTRICTIONS

      defend, and control any action concerning the Licensed Trademarks, either
      in its own name or by joining Licensee as a party thereto. Licensee shall
      not during the Term of this Agreement contest the validity of, by act or
      omission jeopardize, or take any action inconsistent with, Microsoft's
      rights or goodwill in the Licensed Trademarks in any country, including

      of any mark confusingly similar thereto.

3.1.6    Ownership.Licensee acknowledges Microsoft's ownership of all Licensed Trademarks, and all goodwill associated with the Licensed Trademarks. Use of the Licensed Trademarks shall not create any right, title or interest therein in Licensee's favor. Licensee's use of the Licensed Trademarks shall inure solely to the benefit of Microsoft.

3.1.7    No Bundling with Unapproved Peripherals, Products or Software.Licensee shall not market or distribute any Finished Product Unit bundled with a peripheral product software or other products, nor shall Licensee knowingly permit or assist any third party in such bundling, without Microsoft's prior written consent.

3.6    No
      Reverse Engineering.Licensee may utilize and study the design, performance
      and operation of Xbox solely for the purposes of developing the Software
      Title. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensee shall not, directly or indirectly,
      reverse engineer or aid or assist in the reverse engineering of all or
      any part of Xbox except and only to the extent that such activity is expressly
      permitted by applicable law notwithstanding this limitation. Reverse engineering
      includes, without limitation, decompiling, disassembly, sniffing, peeling
      semiconductor components, or otherwise deriving source code. In addition
      to any other rights and remedies that Microsoft may have under the circumstances,

      accordance with Section 6 below with respect to any games or other products
      that are developed, marketed or distributed by Licensee, and derived in
      whole or in part from the reverse engineering of Xbox or any Microsoft
      data, code or other material.

3.7     Reservation of Rights.Microsoft reserves all rights not explicitly granted herein.

3.8    Ownership of the Software Titles.Except for the intellectual property supplied by Microsoft to Licensee (including without limitation the licenses in the Licensed Trademarks hereunder and the licenses in certain software and hardware granted by an XDK License), ownership of which is retained by Microsoft, insofar as Microsoft is concerned, Licensee will own all rights in and to the Software Titles.

4.2.3the initial manufacturing order for Finished Product Units of each Software Title may not be less than a number specified by Microsoft in the Xbox Guide; although such. number may change from time to time during the term of this Agreement, initially it will be 35,000;

4.2.4    as between Licensee and Microsoft, Licensee shall be responsible for ensuring that all Finished Product Units are free of all defects;

4.2.5Licensee will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Authorized Replicator to deliver to Microsoft true and accurate monthly statements of Finished Product Units manufactured in each calendar month, on a Software Title-by-Software Title basis and in sufficient detail to satisfy Microsoft, within fifteen (15) days after the end of the applicable month, and Microsoft will have reasonable audit rights to examine the records of the Authorized Replicator regarding the number of Finished Product Units manufactured;

4.2.6    Microsoft
    will have the right to have included in the packaging of Finished Product
    Units such marketing materials for Xbox and/or other Xbox products or services
    as Microsoft may determine in its reasonable discretion; provided that Microsoft
    shall not require the inclusion of any third-party software title marketing
    materials without the prior written consent of Licensee. Microsoft will be
    responsible for delivering to the Authorized Replicator all such marketing
    materials as it desires to include with Finished Product Units, and any incremental
insertion costs relating to such marketing materials will be borne by Microsoft;

4.2.7    Microsoft does not guarantee any level of performance by its Authorized Replicators, and Microsoft will have no liability to Licensee for any Authorized Replicator's failure to perform its obligations under any applicable agreement between Microsoft and such Authorized Replicator and/or between Licensee and such Authorized Replicator;

4.2.8    Prior to placing an order with a replicator/manufacturer for Finished Product Units, Licensee shall confirm with Microsoft that such entity is an Authorized Replicator; Microsoft will endeavor to keep an up-to-date list of Authorized Replicators in the Xbox Guide. Licensee will not place any order for Finished Product Units with any entity that is not at such time an Authorized Replicator.

4.3    Approval of New Authorized Replicator.If Licensee requests that Microsoft certify and approve a third party replicator that is not then an Authorized Replicator, Microsoft will consider such request in good faith. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that Microsoft may condition certification and approval of such third party on the execution of an agreement in a form satisfactory to Microsoft pursuant to which such third party agrees to strict quality standards, non-disclosure requirements, license fees for use of Microsoft intellectual property and trade secrets, and procedures to protect Microsoft's intellectual property and trade secrets. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, Licensee acknowledges
that Microsoft is not required to certify or approve any particular third party as an Authorized Replicator, and that the certification and approval process may be time-consuming.

4.4    Security.Microsoft will have the right to add to the final release version of the Software Title delivered by Licensee to Microsoft, and to all Finished Product Units, such digital signature technology and other security technology and copyright management information (collectively, "Security Technology") as Microsoft may determine to be necessary, and/or Microsoft may modify the signature included in any Security Technology included in the Software Title by Licensee at Microsoft's direction. Additionally, Microsoft may add Security Technology that prohibits the play of Software Titles on Xbox units manufactured in a region or country different from the location of manufacture of the respective
Finished Product Units.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no royalties will be payable hereunder with respect to any Demo Finished Product Units. For the purposes hereof, a "Demo Finished Product Unit" will mean a Finished Product Unit that (i) contains only a small portion of the applicable Software Title, (ii) is provided to end users only to advertise or promote the applicable Software Title (although it may include demonstration versions of. other games for Xbox published by Licensee), (iii) is manufactured in a number of units that has been approved in advance by Microsoft, which approval Microsoft agrees not to unreasonably withhold, and (iv) is distributed free or with a suggested retail price of not more than
US$5.00.

6.2    Royalty Payments.Licensee shall have the option of paying the above royalties in US Dollars, Japanese Yen or Euros, according to the terms of this Section. By designating the appropriate box below, Licensee may choose to pay royalties on either a "Worldwide" or "Regional" basis. Such designation shall be binding throughout the term of this Agreement for all of Licensee's Software Titles. If Licensee elects to pay on a Worldwide basis, it shall pay royalties in US Dollars regardless of where the Finished Product.Units are distributed or manufactured. If Licensee elects to pay on a Regional basis, it shall pay royalties in US Dollars, Japanese Yen or Euros in accordance with the table
set forth in Section 6.1 but subject to the rest of this Section 6.2:

(i)    If the Authorized Replicator manufacturing the Finished Product Units is located in Japan, Singapore, Malaysia or Taiwan, Licensee shall pay its royalty denominated in Japanese Yen for such Finished Product Units.

(ii)If the Authorized Replicator manufacturing the Finished Product Units is located in a member country of the European Union, Licensee shall pay its royalty denominated in Euros for such Finished Product Units.

(iii)    If the Authorized Replicator manufacturing the Finished Product Units is located in any other country or region of the world, Licensee shall pay its royalty denominated in US Dollars for such Finished Product Units.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the conversion ratio for either Yen or Euros to Dollars, as described in the US edition of the Wall Street Journal, falls outside the foreign exchange trading range as set forth in the chart below, for a period of time greater than 30 consecutive days, Microsoft may then readjust the royalty amounts set forth in Section 6.1 for that currency. Such readjustments shall be made in Microsoft's good faith discretion according to its normal practices.

6.3    Payment Process.After its receipt from the applicable Authorized Replicator(s) of each monthly statement of Finished Product Units manufactured, Microsoft will invoice Licensee for the amount owed to Microsoft pursuant to Section 6.1 above based upon the applicable statement. Licensee shall pay to Microsoft the full amount invoiced within thirty (30) calendar days after the date of the respective invoice. Payment will be made by wire transfer, in immediately available funds, to an account, and in accordance with a reasonable procedure, to be specified in writing by Microsoft.

6.4    Audit.Licensee shall keep all usual and proper records related to its manufacturing, sale and distribution of Finished Product Units (and any subcontractor's performance directly related thereto) under this Agreement, including support for any cost borne by or income due to Microsoft, for a minimum period of three (3) years from the date they are created. Such records, books of account, and entries shall be kept in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Microsoft reserves the right, upon three () business days' notice, to audit Licensee's records and consult with Licensee's accountants for the purpose of verifying Licensee's compliance with the terms of this Agreement and for a period
of two (2) years thereafter. Any such audit shall be made by an independent accounting firm designated by Microsoft, and shall be conducted during regular business hours at the Licensee's (or any applicable subcontractor's) offices. Any such audit shall be paid for by Microsoft unless material discrepancies are disclosed. "Material" shall mean five percent (5%) of the royalties due to Microsoft within the audit period.

6.5.2    Licensee

    and/or property are being provided or in which the transactions contemplated
    hereunder are otherwise subject to tax, regardless of the method of delivery.
    Any taxes that are owed by Licensee, (i) as a result of entering into this
    Agreement and the payment of the fees hereunder, (ii) are required or permitted
    to be collected from Licensee by Microsoft under applicable law, and (iii)

6.5.3If, after a determination by foreign tax authorities, any taxes are required to be withheld, on payments made by Licensee to Microsoft, Licensee may deduct such taxes from the amount owed Microsoft and pay them to the appropriate taxing authority; provided however, that Licensee shall promptly secure and deliver to Microsoft an official receipt for any such taxes withheld or other documents necessary to enable Microsoft to claim a U.S. Foreign Tax Credit. Licensee will make certain that any taxes withheld are minimized to the extent possible under applicable law.

6.5.4     This tax Section 6.5 shall govern the treatment of all taxes arising as a result of or in connection with this Agreement notwithstanding any other section of this Agreement.

rights in or related to any of them, it will promptly notify Microsoft thereof. Microsoft may take such action as it deems advisable for the protection of its rights in and to such proprietary rights, and Licensee shall, if requested by Microsoft, cooperate in all reasonable respects therein at Microsoft's expense.

      venue in the courts of Washington or California shall be at the election
      of the party initiating the action. In either case the internal procedural
      and substantive laws of the State of Washington shall control. Eidos UK
      and Eidos US waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum
      non conveniens. Process may be served on either party in the manner authorized
      by applicable law or court rule. If any party employs attorneys to enforce
      any rights arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the prevailing
      party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys' fees, costs
      and other reasonable related expenses. This choice of jurisdiction provision
      does not prevent Microsoft from seeking injunctive relief with respect
      to a violation of intellectual property rights or confidentiality obligations
      in any appropriate jurisdiction.

12.2    Notices; Requests.All notices and requests in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed given as of the day they are (i) deposited in the U.S. mails, postage prepaid, certified or registered, return receipt requested; or (ii) sent by overnight courier, charges prepaid, with a confirming fax; and addressed as follows:

| |  | Trademarks identify a company's goods or services.
      Xbox is not a generic thing, but rather a brand of game system from Microsoft.
      A trademark is a proper adjective that modifies the generic name or descriptor
      of a product or service. The descriptor for Xbox is "game system," i.e., "XboXTM game
      system." Use the descriptor immediately after mention of "Xbox".
      You should not combine the Xbox trademark with an improper generic name
      or descriptor. For example, game programs designed to run on the Xbox game
      system are not "Xbox games," but rather "games for the Xbox
      system" or "Xbox certified games."

[7].1     Royalties.

[7].1.1     Royalty
        Payments. In accordance with the terms of this Section [7], Licensee
        shall have the option of paying the Standard FPU royalties in US Dollars,
        Japanese Yen or Euros. Licensee shall exercise its option by completing,
        signing and returning to Microsoft the Xbox Publisher Royalty Selection
        Form annexed as Exhibit I hereto, and designating the appropriate box
        thereby selecting to pay royalties on either a "Worldwide" or "Regional" basis,
    it being agreed that, if Licensee does not complete and return the Royalty
    Selection Form within [*] days following the Effective Date of this Amendment,
    then the Regional or Worldwide option that Licensee designated prior to the
    Effective Date of this Amendment shall remain in effect. The royalty selection
    designation shall be binding throughout the Term of this Agreement for all
    of Licensee's Software Titles. If Licensee elects to pay on a Worldwide basis,
    it shall pay royalties in US Dollars regardless of where the Standard FPUs
    are distributed or manufactured. If Licensee elects to pay on a Regional
    basis, it shall pay royalties in US Dollars, Japanese Yen or Euros in accordance
with the table set forth in this Section [7].l ("Royalty Table") and
the following provisions.

(a)     If
    Licensee has chosen regional billing and the Authorized Replicator manufacturing
    the Standard FPUs is located in Japan, Singapore, Malaysia or Taiwan, Licensee
    shall pay its royalty denominated in Japanese Yen as set forth in the Royalty
    Table for such Standard FPUs.

(b)     If
    Licensee has chosen regional billing and the Authorized Replicator manufacturing
    the Standard FPUs is located within Europe, Licensee shall pay its royalty
    denominated in Euros as set forth in the Royalty Table for such Standard
    FPUs.

(c)     If
    Licensee has chosen regional billing and the Authorized Replicator manufacturing
    the Standard FPUs is located in any other country or region of the world,
    Licensee shall pay its royalty denominated in US Dollars as set forth in
    the Royalty Table for such Standard FPUs.

[7].1.2     Notwithstanding
    the foregoing, in the event the conversion ratio for either Yen or Euros
    to Dollars, as described by the Reuters news service as set forth on "Reuters.com" (as
    of 4:00 p.m. London, England time), falls outside the foreign exchange trading
    range as set forth in the chart below, for a period of time greater than
    [*] consecutive days, Microsoft may then, in its good faith discretion
    and according to its normal practices, readjust the royalty amounts set forth
    in the Royalty Table for that currency. Microsoft shall provide Licensee
    with notice of any such changes in the royalty amounts.

With respect to the specific Sales Territories in which Software Titles Release to Manufacture at least fourteen (14) days after the Execution Date, Licensee shall pay Microsoft nonrefundable Base Royalties, on a Software Title-by-Software Title basis, for each Standard FPU manufactured during the Term of this Agreement, in accordance with the Base Royalty tables set forth in this Section [7].1.4 and the "Unit Discount" table set forth in Section [7].1.5. If Licensee has chosen the Worldwide billing option, (i) the applicable Base Royalty for Standard FPUs for Software Titles intended for sale in the European and North American Sales Territories shall be
determined by the Wholesale Price of the Software Title, and for Software Titles intended for sale in the Japan Sales Territory, the Base Royalty shall be determined by the Suggested Retail Price; and (ii) the Base Royalty shall always be payable in United States Dollars. If Licensee has chosen the Regional billing option, the applicable Base Royalty for Standard FPUs for Software Titles intended for sale in the European, Japan and North American Sales Territories shall be determined by: (x) the Wholesale Price of the Software Title (for Japan, the Suggested Retail Price); (y) the Territory in which the Standard FPUs are manufactured (the "Manufacturing Region"); and (z) the Territory in which Licensee intends to sell the Standard FPUs (the "Sales Territory"). In
addition, if Licensee has chosen the Regional billing option, the applicable currency for payment of the Base Royalty shall be solely determined by the Manufacturing Region of the applicable FPUs. The applicable Base Royalty for Standard FPUs for Software Titles intended for sale in the Asian Sales Territory Excluding Japan shall be, until further notice from Microsoft, determined solely by the Manufacturing Region. Base Royalties per Sales Territory for both the Worldwide and Regional billing options are set forth in the following tables:

        of Base Royalty Tier. Regardless of whether Licensee has chosen
        the Worldwide or Regional billing option, in order for the appropriate
        royalty tier to be applied to Licensee's Standard FPUs, Licensee shall
        submit a completed and signed Royalty Tier Selection Form in the form
        attached hereto as Exhibit 2 for each Software Title's Sales Territory
        to Microsoft no later than forty-five (45) days prior to the date of
        Licensee's first submission to Microsoft of the final release version
        of such Software Title for certification in each Sales Territory. Notwithstanding
        the foregoing, if Licensee chooses not to reveal a Software Title's Wholesale
        Price range (or, in the case of the Japan Territory, Suggested Retail
        Price range), it shall have no obligation to submit a Royalty Tier Selection
        Form; provided, however, that in such case, (i) the Base Royalty for
        such Software Title shall be the Tier 1 rate for such Software Title,
        regardless of the actual Wholesale (or Suggested Retail) Price; and (ii)
        unless notified otherwise by Licensee in writing, the Sales territory
        for any FPUs for the Software Title shall be deemed to be the same as
        the Manufacturing Region for such FPUs. Additionally, if Licensee, for

    the Sales territory for any FPUs for the Software Title shall be deemed to
    be the same as the Manufacturing Region for such FPUs. Following the selection
    of a Base Royalty by Licensee in accordance with this Section for a Software
    Title in a Sales Territory, such Base Royalty shall be binding with respect
    to such Software Title in such Sales Territory, even if the Wholesale (or
    Suggested Retail) Price is reduced following the Software Title's Commercial
    Release in such Sales Territory. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no royalties
    will be payable hereunder with respect to any Demo Versions.

          Discounts. Regardless of whether Licensee has chosen the Worldwide
          or Regional Billing option, Licensee shall be eligible for a discount
          (a "Unit Discount") on the applicable Base Royalty based
          on the aggregate number of Standard FPUs that have been manufactured
          for

          discount will be rounded up to the nearest Cent, Yen or hundreth of
          a Euro. The discount schedule will be updated and revised in the first
          calendar quarter each year and will be effective starting the following
          July. The following discount grid is the first of such discount schedules
          and will be effective immediately but only for Software Titles that
          Commercially
        Release on or after [*].
