motivated to click) clicks on a Listing and accesses the destination site. 
  
 1.2 “Gross Revenue” means total invoices generated from Search Results on Partner Network during the applicable period, less any month-end adjustments for credit card fraud, advertising complaints or
similar items, not to exceed [***] of total Gross Revenue unless agreed in writing by both parties.

Search Results will include Sponsored Search and/orReviewed Web Sites as indicated in Section 5.

 2.1 License. Subject to the terms, limitations and conditions herein, LookSmart hereby grants to Partner a non-exclusive license during the Term
hereof to publicly display the Search Results in electronic form on search results pages on the Partner Network. 
  
 2.2 Limitations on License. The license granted above is limited by the following restrictions: (i) except as expressly permitted herein, Partner

herein, Partner will not display, sublicense or syndicate the Search Results on or to any third party or web site outside of the Partner Network unless it first obtains LookSmart’s written consent; (v) Partner will use the tracking URLs
