                New
      Section 4.05 (Fixed Fee for Sublicenses) is hereby added after
      Section 4.04 (No Royalty for Samples) as
  follows:

              


      

       

      “With
respect to sublicenses granted by IGT to third parties, other than IGT
Affiliates, for Gaming Machines and Administrative Machines pursuant to the
terms of Section 3.02 (Right to Sublicense), IGT will pay PureDepth, as set
forth below, (a) license fees for sublicensee Sales of Gaming Machines or
Administrative Machines, (b) [***] of all Net Proceeds received by IGT from
periodic fees paid by sublicensees, or (c) a negotiated fee on participation
game revenue (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Fixed
Fee”).  Net Proceeds means IGT’s sublicense proceeds less taxes,
duties, and shipping charges.  In such cases where IGT pays PureDepth
a Fixed Fee as specified in this Section 4.05, IGT shall [***]

       

      For
avoidance of doubt, Sales by IGT to casinos or other end users do not constitute
"sublicenses" and are therefore not subject to a Fixed Fee.  Further,
IGT shall not be obligated to pay a Fixed Fee on any Sale by it or any of its
Affiliates, regardless of whether the Gaming Machine Sold provides a daily fee,
a revenue share, or like proceeds to IGT.

       

      To be
clear, the Parties agree that for each sublicense the Fixed Fee will apply
according to only one of the following structures:

       

      If a
sublicensee Sells a Gaming Machine or Administrative Machine and remits to IGT a
one time license fee, IGT will pay PureDepth the royalty rate currently in
effect as set out in the Royalty Schedule in section 4.02.

       

      If a
sublicensee places a Gaming Machine or Administrative Machine and remits to IGT
an associated daily fee (or other periodic fee) IGT will pay PureDepth [***] of
IGT’s Net Proceeds associated with the daily fee.

       

      If a
sublicensee places a Gaming Machine or Administrative Machine and remits to IGT
associated recurring revenue, IGT shall negotiate a daily fee (or other periodic
fee) due to Pure Depth concurrently with IGT entering into a sublicense with the
sublicense.

       

      To be
clear, if a Fixed Fee does not apply in respect of a Gaming Machine or
Administrative Machine, then the Royalty Schedule of Section 4.02 shall
apply.

       

      Any Fixed
Fees paid by IGT to PureDepth prior to exhaustion of the total Prepaid Royalty
under Section 4.02 will be applied against the Prepaid Royalty in the amounts of
the Fixed Fees.”

       

       

      
        	
                22.

              	
                A
      new Section 4.06 (Option) will be added after new Section 4.05
      (Fixed Fee for Sublicenses) as
follows:

              


      

       

      “Section
4.06 Option.  If, by the end of the first three (3) years of the
Second Term (the “First Segment”), and if by the end of each subsequent year of
the Second Term thereafter (each an “ Annual Period”), IGT has not Sold and/or
sublicensed an average of [***] Wagering Stations or [***] during the then
expired portion of the Second Term, PureDepth will have the option, in
PureDepth’s sole discretion, to terminate IGT’s exclusive license under
Section 3.01 (Grant) by written notice delivered to IGT within sixty (60)
days after expiration of the First Segment or the applicable Annual Period,
subject to payment by PureDepth of a “Buy Back Payment” to IGT.  The
Buy Back Payment will be [***] As an example, if IGT Sells [***]Wagering
Stations in the first year of the Second Term, [***]Wagering Stations in the
second year of the Second Term and [***]Wagering Stations in the third year of
the Second Term, then IGT shall be deemed to have met its obligation of having
Sold an average [***]Wagering Stations per year during the then expired portion
of the Second Term and PureDepth shall not have the option to terminate IGT’s
exclusive license at that time.

       

      
        
           

        

        
          5

          
            

          

        

        
           

        

      

      In
addition, IGT shall have the right to maintain its exclusive license under this
Agreement by purchasing additional licenses ("Additional Licenses") in lieu of
Sales of Gaming Machine such that with the Additional Licenses the average
calculates to [***] Wagering Stations Sold by IGT per year during the then
expired portion of the Second Term.  Any Additional Licenses as may be
purchased by IGT shall be purchased at a royalty rate [***] per Wagering
Station.  If such Additional Licenses are to be purchased by IGT prior
to exhaustion of the total Prepaid Royalty under Section 4.02, then such
Additional Licenses will be applied against the Prepaid Royalty.

       

      If
PureDepth makes the Buy Back Payment as set forth in this Section 4.06 and IGT
does not purchase Additional Licenses as necessary to maintain exclusivity, then
the exclusive license granted by PureDepth to IGT in Section 3.01 will convert
to a non-exclusive license until the end of the Second Term.  Under
the non-exclusive license, IGT will pay PureDepth a royalty of [***] for each
Wagering Station provided with Gaming Machines that are Sold by IGT or any
sublicensee of IGT.  However, if PureDepth grants to any manufacturer
or distributor of Gaming Machines, a license that is under any Licensed
Intellectual Property and that will permit such manufacturer or distributor to
manufacture or Sell Gaming Machines licensed in this Agreement for any use
within the scope of the license granted in this Agreement, that is within the
Territory and within the Field of Use, at royalty rates that, calculated on an
equivalent basis in respect to the Licensed Intellectual Property in question,
are lower than [***] per Wagering Station, then PureDepth will (a) promptly
notify IGT of such license, provided however that PureDepth need not disclose
the identify of the licensee or specific license terms to IGT, and (b) extend to
IGT the lower royalty rates of the noticed license, effective as of the date on
which they became effective in respect to the noticed license.”
