Section 6), channel and region, in order to allow HBS to provide meaningful input
into future marketing plans and (ii) monthly electronic delivery of updates and/or
database reports of Accounts and other customer and Localized Game information and
data from the system of the Game.
	 
	 	5.3.	 	Standards. Licensee agrees: that (i) the Localized Game and all
Marketing Materials shall be of the highest standard and of such style, appearance
and quality as shall in the sole judgment of Flagship/HBS be adequate and suited to
their exploitation to the best advantage and to the protection and enhancement of
Flagship’s/HBS’s reputation and the goodwill associated with the Flagship Trademarks
and/or HBS Trademarks; (ii) the Game Cards, Online Virtual Game Cards, and Localized
Game shall be produced, packaged, sold, distributed, marketed and serviced in
accordance with all applicable Law; (iii) the policy of sale, distribution, and/or
Exploitation by Licensee hereunder shall be of equivalent high standard and style as
that of HBS in Korea and Flagship in the United States; and (iv) the same shall in
no manner reflect adversely upon the Game or Flagship or HBS either inside or
outside the Territory, Licensee acknowledges that if the Localized Game, Game Cards,
Online Virtual Game Cards, Website and Marketing Materials manufactured, operated,
distributed and/or sold by it hereunder, as applicable, were of inferior quality in
design, material or workmanship, the substantial goodwill which Flaghsip/HBS has
established and now possesses in the Flagship/HBS Trademarks would be impaired.
Accordingly, Licensee further specifically covenants and agrees to keep HBS informed
of its implementation of the Marketing Plan, and to consult HBS as the Localization
of the Game is being prepared under the Implementation Plan so that there will be
full opportunity for HBS to deter Licensee from any use of the Game that would alter
the successful concepts associated with the Game, including any new concepts
Flagship develops for the Game. Licensee will maintain the spirit of the Game and
will use the Flagship Trademarks and/or HBS Trademarks only in conformity with the
usage standards set forth in this Section 5.3. All uses of the Flagship Trademarks
and/or HBS Trademarks in the marketing of the Localized Game as well as the
Localization of the Game and Server Software will be consistent with the high
standards, quality and spirit of the Game. No uses of the Flagship Trademarks and/or
HBS Trademarks as well as no Localization of the Game and Server Software will
deviate substantially from the Game, impair the value of the Game by reason of poor
quality, insufficient resemblance to the Game, or be in bad taste or otherwise
objectionable. The content and character of the Localized Game will, in all
circumstances, be free of vulgar and/or obscene content (under any standards). The
appearance, dialogue and actions of the characters portrayed in the Localized Game
will be consistent with the spirit of such characters as they appear in the Game.
The Localized Game released under this license will be of AAA quality as that term
is generally understood in the United States interactive video game software
industry. Licensee will not distribute, offer to sell or sell any Game Card, Online
Virtual Card, or Localized Game that is damaged, defective or otherwise fails to
meet the specifications and/or quality control or notice requirements of this
Agreement. Licensee will comply with all applicable Law in connection with the
Localized Game, Game Cards, Online Virtual Game Cards, and Marketing Materials, and
any sale and/or distribution by Licensee hereunder will accord with good commercial
practices.

	 	6.1.	 	Revenue Generation Methods. All revenue generated by Game
activities hereunder must be recorded by Licensee and/or its 100% owned subsidiary
which is granted the sub-license rights pursuant to Section 2.7 of the Agreement.
At execution of this Agreement, the parties have agreed upon one particular type of
revenue generation for the Game within the Territory; that being the use of Game
Cards and Online Virtual Game Cards. In order to easily allow for future payment
methods, the parties have agreed to describe revenue generation and the associated
royalties on Exhibit D, Initially, Exhibit D1 will only describe the Game Card and
Online Virtual Game Card revenue model in terms of the sale and distribution of Game
Cards and Online Virtual Game Cards through wholesalers, distributors and retailers
of video games and/or prepaid cards. As HBS and Licensee mutually approve additional
or alternative revenue models, if ever, these will be added to the agreement as
additional Exhibit Ds, with a numerical designator added (e.g., Game Cards as
described in the immediately preceding sentence are covered by
Exhibit D1, the next
revenue model will be described on Exhibit D2, the next on D3, and so on). In the
event of an inconsistency between the main body of this Agreement and Exhibit D, then
Exhibit D shall prevail.
	 
	 	6.2.	 	Payments. In consideration of the exclusive appointment and grant
of license herein, Licensee shall pay HBS the following:
	 
	 	6.2.1.	 	Non-recoupable License Fee. Licensee shall pay to HBS a non-refundable
and non-recoupable license fee in the amount of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand
U.S. Dollars (the “License Fee”) within five (5) working days following the execution
of this Agreement. Licensee’s failure to pay payment of the License Fee within the
time period set forth herein shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement, and
HBS, in addition to any remedies available to it at law or in equity, may immediately
terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Licensee without any liability to
Licensee of any kind.
	 
	 	6.2.2.	 	Minimum Guarantee. Licensee shall pay to HBS a non-refundable minimum
guarantee against royalties in the amount of Six Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S.
Dollars ($6,500,000 U.S.D) (the “Minimum Guarantee”) as follows:

			
	 	 	 
	HBS Hellgate: London License:
	 	Page 19
	Rev. 12/7/2006
	 	CONFIDENTIAL

 

 

	 	6.2.2.1.	 	Two Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($2,500,000 U.S.D) during the
twelve (12) month period immediately following the Commercial Release Date (the “First
Period”), which shall be paid to HBS on the earlier of either March 31, 2007 or the
launch date of the Closed Beta in the Territory.
	 
	 	6.2.2.2.	 	Two Million U.S. Dollars ($2,000,000 U.S.D) during the second twelve (12) month
period following the Commercial Release Date (the “Second Period”), which shall be paid
and payable in four equal installments of Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($500,000
U.S.D), each on the first day of each Quarter of the Second Period; and
	 
	 	6.2.2.3.	 	Two Million U.S. Dollars ($2,000,000 U.S.D) during the third twelve (12) month period
following the Commercial Release Date (the “Third Period”), which shall be paid and
payable in four equal installments of Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($500,000
U.S.D), each on the first day of each Quarter of the Third Period.
	 
	 	6.2.2.4.	 	The Minimum Guarantee shall be recoupable by Licensee against Royalties pursuant to
and as stated in Section 6.2.3 below. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.2.2 to
the contrary, should Licensee pay to HBS at least Six Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S.
Dollars ($6,500,000 U.S.D) in Royalties at any time prior to the expiration of the Third
Period (the “Minimum Guarantee Payout”) following recoupment of the applicable portion of
the Minimum Guarantee paid to HBS for the applicable Period in which the Minimum
Guarantee Payout is paid, Licensee shall not be obligated to pay HBS the remaining
portions of the Minimum Guarantee payable for the remaining Periods, provided, however,
that nothing in this Section 6.2.2.4 shall waive HBS’s right to, or relieve Licensee of
its obligation to pay, accrued Royalties during the Term. By way of example, if by the
end of the First Period, Licensee has recouped Two Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S.
Dollars ($2,500,000 U.S.D) of the Minimum Guarantee payable to HBS for the First Period
and paid to HBS Six Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars ($6,500,000 U.S.D) in
Royalties, Licensee shall not be obligated to pay the remaining portions of the Minimum
Guarantee for the Second Period and the Third Period.

	 	6.2.3.	 	Royalties. Licensee shall pay HBS the royalties (“Royalties”) in accordance with the
rates described in Exhibit D. The Royalties payable during the First Period through the Third
Period as stated above shall be recouped only against the amount of the Minimum Guarantee paid
in the respective Period stated in Section 6.2.2 above. Royalties may not be
cross-collateralized between Periods for purposes of recoupment of the Minimum Guarantee.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, should Licensee recoup from Royalties the
applicable amount of the Minimum Guarantee paid to HBS for any given Quarter during the First
through Third Period (each a “Quarterly MG Payment”), Licensee shall pay to HBS all Royalties
in excess of such Quarterly MG Payment for such Quarter . By way of example, if Royalties in
the second Quarter of the Second Period are $1,000,000, Licensee must pay HBS $500,000, which
is the amount of Royalties remaining following recoupment of the Quarterly MG Payment for such
Quarter. Licensee shall ensure all royalties are paid in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement and Exhibit D.

	 	6.3.	 	Payments. As security for the payment requirements herein, Licensee shall set
up the necessary facilities as HBS shall determine, including but not limited to order
based Letters of Credit. In the event Licensee is unable to timely pay any amounts due
hereunder, HBS shall have the right to make an immediate draw on the Standby LC set out in
Section 6.5 below to meet the outstanding sums due. HBS shall also have the right to
immediately terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Licensee. Except as otherwise
provided by HBS in writing, The License Fee described in
Section 6.2.1, the Minimum
Guarantee described in Section 6.2.2 and all royalties payable to HBS pursuant to Section
6.2.3 hereunder shall be paid by wire transfer to the following account with no deductions
set-off or withholding of any kind, including, without limitation for currency conversion,
wiring charges or any tax that may be levied according to local or international law:

duties, taxes and fees as may be imposed upon HBS with respect to the marketing, distribution,
sale, possession, use or sublicensing of the replicated HBS Products pursuant to this
Agreement. In the event Licensee is precluded by applicable law from making payments free of

actual amount received by HBS shall be the same as though no such deduction had been made.
	 
	 	6.8.	 	Currency Control. Licensee shall obtain the necessary approvals and registrations
(including any reporting requirements to the central bank or monetary

	 	6.10.1.	 	Licensee will, not later than the fifteenth (15th) day following each calendar month

receipt of statements or payments will not prevent it from questioning the correctness of the
statements.
	 
	 	6.10.3.	 	Licensee agrees that any inconsistencies or mistakes discovered in the statements will be
promptly rectified and the appropriate payments made by Licensee. Interest at the rate of
five percent (5%) per month, not compounded, (but in no event more than the maximum amount
permitted by law), shall accrue on any amount due hereunder, from the date such payments are
due until the date of payment. Time is of the essence with respect to all payments under
this Agreement. HBS’s right hereunder to interest on late payments shall not preclude HBS
from exercising any of its other rights or remedies pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise
with regard to Licensee’s failure to make timely remittances.
	 
	 	6.10.4.	 	Licensee shall, upon HBS’s demand, but not more than once per year, at Licensee’s own
expense, furnish to HBS a detailed statement prepared by an independent certified public
accountant specifying the kinds and quantities of Game Cards, Online Virtual Game Cards and
Localized Games in inventory, sold and the prices received therefor up to the date of HBS’s
demand.
	 
	 	6.11.	 	Usage Reports; Management Reports.
	 
	 	6.11.1.	 	In conjunction with the Accounting statements set forth in Section 6.10, Licensee shall
provide to HBS written reports for every one-month period, or more or less often if requested
by HBS, showing Licensee’s shipments and uploads of the Localized Game, usage of the Server
Software and any other information HBS reasonably requests. Licensee shall contractually
obligate any duplicator/replicator with which it contracts to replicate the Client to send
detailed and accurate reports regarding the number of units of the Localized Game duplicated.
The reports shall be submitted to HBS no later than the thirtieth of each and every month that
any such duplication/replication takes place.
	 
	 	6.11.2.	 	On a quarterly basis, Licensee shall provide to HBS written management reports to include,
but not limited to Gross Sales revenue in local currency delineating applicable to individual
subscriptions, product SKU’s and wholesale customers, as well as a report of royalty
calculation, detailed profit & loss statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement and other
information as HBS may reasonably request.

	 
	 	6.12.	 	Records. Licensee shall maintain, for at least three (3) years after termination of
this Agreement, its records, contracts and accounts relating to the Game. For the purpose of
verifying compliance by the Licensee with the provisions of this Agreement, Licensee agrees
that HBS and its representatives shall be permitted with full access to and shall be permitted
to make copies of or abstracts from, the books and records of Licensee relating to all facets
of Licensee’s Exploitation of

	 	 	 	the Game, HBS shall be permitted to audit such books and records at reasonable intervals.
Such records, contracts and accounts shall be deemed confidential information by HBS.
	 
	 	6.13.	 	Audit Rights. Licensee shall maintain accurate books and records pertaining to the
reproduction and distribution of the Game and the operation of the Game at Licensee’s
headquarters .. HBS’s designated auditors (who shall be certified public accountants) shall
have the right twice a year during ordinary business hours and upon twenty (20) working days’
prior written notice, to gain access to Licensee’s accounts and records related to the Game.
Licensee will at all times keep an accurate and separate record of all transactions covered by
this Agreement. Records will include all documents and other information relevant to the
performance by Licensee of its rights and obligations under this Agreement. HBS’s auditors,
upon reasonable notice and at its own expense, will have free and full access to and will have
the right to audit, copy and make abstracts of Licensee’s records and other relevant documents
and information in the possession of Licensee, in order to verify any statements rendered
hereunder. HBS shall also have access to audit the components of the billing system operated
by Licensee. Any such audit will be conducted only by certified public accountants and will
take place only during reasonable business hours and in such manner so as not to unreasonably
interfere with Licensee’s normal business activities. All of the information contained in
Licensee’s records will be kept confidential except to the extent necessary to permit
enforcement of Flagship’s/HBS’s rights hereunder (including, but not limited to, disclosing
such records to Flagship), and HBS agrees that such information inspected and/or copied on
behalf of HBS hereunder will be used only for the purposes of determining the accuracy of the
statements, and will be revealed only to such employees, agents and/or representatives of HBS
as necessary to verify the accuracy of the statements except to the extent necessary to permit
enforcement of HBS’s rights hereunder. Licensee will be furnished with a copy of HBS’s auditor
report within thirty (30) days after the completion of such report. In no event will such an
audit with respect to any statement rendered hereunder: (i) commence after the date on which
such statement has become conclusive and binding upon HBS; (ii) be made hereunder more
frequently than twice annually; or (iii) be conducted on the premises of Licensee for more
than fifteen (15) business days per audit without a compelling reason, such as the unusual
complexity of the audit or Licensee’s failure to reasonably cooperate with, or promptly
provide information reasonably requested by, the auditor. All such records will be kept
available for at least three (3) years after the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
Should the audit disclose a discrepancy in payments to HBS during the period that is covered
by the audit of more than three percent (3%) of any amount subject to the audit, Licensee will
bear the reasonable cost of the audit. Any underpaid amount as disclosed by an audit will
be paid immediately to HBS, together with interest at the rate of five percent (5%) per month
(not compounded), or (if lower), the highest rate allowed by applicable law, commencing on the
date such payment was originally due hereunder.
	 
	 	6.14.	 	HBS has not made nor does it make hereunder any representation regarding the amount of
revenue or the expense that Licensee will incur pursuant to this Agreement.

7. Support.

	 	7.1.	 	Customer Service. Licensee acknowledges that the substantial goodwill of Flagship/HBS
and the Flagship Trademarks and HBS Trademarks in the Territory will be greatly damaged if the

and game user support via call-in center, in-game presence and email. Further, Licensee agrees
to comply with the requirements of Exhibit E which describes the minimum levels of both
customer and game support.
	 
	 	7.2.	 	Support to Licensee. HBS shall provide Licensee’s personnel with initial training
regarding the support of the Game (including the Expansions, if any), without charge. The
duration and scope of the training is set forth in the Implementation Plan. Thereafter,
Licensee shall pay HBS the rate stated in the Implementation Plan for the provision of further
training and assistance.
	 
	 	7.3.	 	Licensee Personnel. Licensee shall train and maintain a sufficient number of
capable technical personnel at its expense in the Territory; (1) to serve the needs of Users;
and (2) otherwise to carry out the responsibilities of Licensee pursuant to this Agreement.

	 	7.4.	 	Technical Expertise. Licensee and its staff shall be conversant with
the technical language conventional to HBS’s Products and similar computer products
in general. HBS may require minimum proficiency levels in the Implementation Plan.
	 
	 	7.5.	 	Licensee agrees that notwithstanding the provision of initial training and
support by HBS, Licensee shall remain solely and wholly responsible for the provision
of the On-Line Services technical support, billing, connection, bandwidth, etc.,
Customer Service, and the discharge of all of its other duties and obligations
hereunder. In this regard, Licensee agrees that it shall promptly attend to all
customer queries and/or complaints relating to the provision of the On-Line Services
and the Localized Game and ensure that such queries and/or complaints are
satisfactorily attended to and resolved. Licensee shall take all necessary measures
to ensure that Flagship/HBS and their respective parent, affiliates, and related
entities are not exposed to any suits, claims, demands or proceedings from customers
in connection with the above.
	 
	 	7.6.	 	Dispatching HBS Employees. HBS may, at its sole discretion,
dispatch up to three (3) HBS employees to Licensee’s offices or such other locations
in the Territory from time to time for the purpose of providing marketing and/or
technical support to Licensee during the Term. For each HBS employee dispatched to
Licensee as set forth herein, Licensee shall pay: (a) all travel costs associated
with such employee, including, without limitation, airfare and reasonable hotel or
housing accommodations (the standards of which shall be subject to HBS approval); (b)
any and all costs associated with obtaining a visa for the Territory; and (c) a
support fee of $2,500 U.S.D per month. The support fee set forth in the immediately
preceding sentence shall be paid to the account set forth in Section 6.3 on the last
day of each month that each such employee is providing Licensee support services.
Payment of partial months of support service shall be calculated by dividing the
service fee by 30 and then multiplying the result by the number of days of support
service provided.
	 
	 	7.7.	 	Middleware Installation. HBS may license, under a separate software
license agreement with Licensee, certain HBS software products for the purpose of
assisting in providing the Online Services (the “Middleware”), including (a) a
concurrent user monitoring solution; (b) a billing system which shall provide
daily/cumulative charged deposit points and daily/cumulative consumed deposit
points; and (c) access to total subscriber numbers, daily new subscriber numbers, and
daily unique visitor numbers. Licensee shall provide reasonable support to HBS at
HBS’s request for the purpose of installing the Middleware.

FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THE ABOVE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY DOES NOT APPLY TO DAMAGES AND
LOSS CAUSED DIRECTLY AS A RESULT OF HBS’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE AND/OR WILFUL MISCONDUCT.

CARDS HEREUNDER. THE EXISTENCE OF MORE THAN ONE CLAIM SHALL NOT ENLARGE OR EXTEND THE LIMIT.

11. Indemnification.

	 	11.1.	 	Licensee’s Indemnification. Licensee shall defend, indemnify and
hold harmless Flagship/HBS, their respective parent, subsidiaries, affiliated
companies and partners and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents
(each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all liabilities, damages,
judgments, costs, expenses, and fees (including reasonable attorney’s fees) resulting
from any claims, litigation, or actions arising out of or relating to actual or
alleged: (i) distribution by Licensee of the Localized Game, Online Virtual Game
Cards, Game Cards, Instructional Guide, or any other Game related materials; or (ii)
Licensee marketing and sale of the Game Cards, Online Virtual Game Cards or Localized
Game; or (iii) defects in the Game Cards, Online Virtual Game Cards, Localized Game
or Localized Server; or (iv) unauthorized use of any patent, process, method or
device or out of the infringement of any copyrights, trade name, patent, or libel or
invasion of the right of privacy, contract, publicity or other property rights of any
party; or (v) breach by Licensee of any and all provisions of this Agreement in

not authorized by HBS; or (viii) any third-party claim arising from Licensee’s use of
any trademarks or copyrighted material added to the Game Cards, Online Virtual Game
Cards, Localized Game, Instructional Guide, Marketing Materials or other Game related
materials. An Indemnified Party will timely notify Licensee in a writing that sets
forth with specificity the claim or action to which such indemnification obligation
applies but any failure to provide timely notice or information shall not impair such
Indemnified Party’s rights to indemnification except to the extent that such failure
has materially prejudiced or materially delayed Licensee in defense of the claim.
Licensee shall have the right to control the defense of each such claim and any
lawsuit or proceeding arising therefrom. Licensee will cause its counsel to
cooperate fully with the Indemnified Party and its counsel in the defense of such
action. Licensee shall not admit any liability or compromise any suit without first
obtaining the Indemnified Party’s consent in writing. Each Indemnified Party shall
have the right to participate in the defense and settlement of such claim being
defended by Licensee through separate counsel at such Indemnified Party’s expense.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Licensee does not timely undertake to
defend an Indemnified Party from a claim or suit described above, the Indemnified
Party shall have the right to undertake the defense itself and Licensee promises to
repay all liabilities, damages, costs and fees (including reasonable attorney’s fees)
resulting from such defense regardless of the outcome.

alteration or modification of the Game or Server Software.

against any and all claims, demands and causes of action arising out of or in
connection with the Localized Game, including without limitation, Game Cards, Online
Virtual Game Cards, Localized Client or Localized Server or the use thereof or
failure to perform, alleged or otherwise, in the

directors, and Licensee against any such claims or suits shall be a minimum amount of

occurrence. Such policy(s) of insurance shall be in effect at least as early as the
Effective Date of this Agreement and shall remain in force and provide coverage
throughout the Territory until one (1) year after the effective date of expiration or
any termination of this Agreement. Licensee shall be solely responsible for the
payment of all deductibles on its policy(s). Within ten (10) business days after the
Effective Date of this Agreement, Licensee will deliver to HBS a certificate(s) of
insurance or other documentary proof that Licensee has obtained the required
insurance policy(s) pursuant to this Agreement. Without prejudice to the forgoing,
HBS may at its discretion specify alternative insurance type and amount that would be
sufficient to protect its interest, in accordance with the best practices of the
industry in general, if any one or more of the aforementioned insurance is not
available to the Licensee.

12. Term and Termination.

	 	12.1.	 	Term. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect during the
Term.
	 
	 	12.2.	 	Termination by HBS with Cause. Without prejudice to any rights

breach is by its nature curable) within thirty (30) days of written notice thereof
(ten (10) days in the case of any breach of payment obligations pursuant to Section
6). Licensee may cure any particular curable breach section only twice, i.e., HBS may
immediately terminate the Agreement for cause if Licensee breaches any section for a
third time even though Licensee cured the breach twice before within the proper cure
period; or
	 
	 	12.2.2.	 	HBS shall have the right to terminate this Agreement automatically and without
further notice to Licensee in the event that Licensee shall make or attempt any
unauthorized assignment for the benefit of creditors, file any petition for
reorganization, readjustment or rearrangement of its business or affairs under any
laws or governmental regulations relating to relief of debtors, bankruptcy or
insolvency of any jurisdiction, have or suffer a receiver or trustee to be appointed
for its business or property, discontinues its business, or be adjudicated a bankrupt

any way deal with any aspect of the Localized Game, including without limitation,
Game Cards, Localized Client, Localized Server Software, Instructional Guides,

	 	12.2.3.	 	HBS shall have the right to terminate this Agreement automatically and without
further notice to Licensee in the event that Licensee is merged, consolidated, sells
all or substantially all of its assets or implements or experiences any substantial

Licensee’s common stock or the equivalent, shall be considered a substantial change
in control hereunder), unless the prior consent and approval of HBS
is obtained.
	 
	 	12.2.4.	 	HBS shall have the right to terminate this Agreement automatically and without
further notice to Licensee in the event that Licensee enters into any arrangement,

	 	 	 	that HBS considers to be prejudicial or adverse to its business interest, reputation, good
standing, image and/or goodwill or which would in any way negatively impact the commercial
viability of the Game. Accordingly, Licensee shall notify and obtain the approval of HBS before
entering into any of the aforesaid arrangements above. Such approval is revocable by Flagship on
a change of circumstances that negatively impacts Flagship.
	 
	 	12.3.	 	Failure to Manufacture or Distribute. Licensee’s failure to commence in good
faith the manufacture, shipping and sale in substantial quantities of the Licensed Products by
the Scheduled Production Date, and to continue during the Term to distribute and sell the Game
Cards, Online Virtual Game Cards or Localized Game in all commercially viable parts of the
Territory, will result in immediate damage to HBS and will constitute a material breach of
this Agreement.
	 
	 	12.4.	 	Licensee Violations of the Agreement. The following also shall constitute breaches
subject to HBS’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of
Section 12:
	 
	 	12.4.1.	 	If Licensee fails to deliver to Flagship/HBS or to maintain in full force and effect the
insurance required in Section 11.3; or
	 
	 	12.4.2.	 	If Licensee fails to provide timely statements, make payments and/or provide access to
Licensee’s premises as required by this Agreement; or
	 
	 	12.4.3.	 	If Licensee sells to any third party who intends to sell, any Game Cards, Online Virtual

“seconds” or inferior Game Cards or Localized Games; or
	 
	 	12.4.6.	 	If Licensee manufactures, sells or distributes, whichever occurs first, any of the
Promotional Merchandise, Instructional Guides, Packaging Material, Marketing Materials, press
releases, Game Cards, Online Virtual Game Cards or Localized Games without the prior written
approval of Flagship/HBS as provided in Section 5; or
	 
	 	12.4.7.	 	If Licensee has made a material misrepresentation or has omitted to state a material fact
necessary to make the statements not misleading; or
	 
	 	12.4.8.	 	If Licensee fails to mark all aspects of the Localized Game, including without limitation
Game Cards, Localized Games, Localized Server Software, Instructional Guides, Promotional
Merchandise, Packaging Materials and Marketing Materials with the appropriate copyright and
trademark notice provided to Licensee; or
	 
	 	12.4.9.	 	If Licensee assigns or attempts to transfer, assign this Agreement or any of Licensee’s
rights under this Agreement to any third party without HBS’s prior written consent; or
	 
	 	12.4.10.	 	If Licensee sells the Server Software; or
	 
	 	12.4.11.	 	If Licensee fails to obtain the requisite approvals, license, permits and/or permission
from the government and regulatory authorities pursuant to Section 2.1.
	 
	 	12.5.	 	Effect of Termination. Upon expiration or termination for any reason of this
Agreement:

immediately cease manufacture, distribution, sale or advertisement for sale of the Game Cards,
Online Virtual Game Cards and Localized Games. Licensee shall immediately turn off the Server
Software and cease operations pertaining to the Localized Game.

Licensee in such a manner that HBS or a third party designated by HBS shall be able
to assume the Online Services in the Territory without causing any interruption or
inconvenience to Users.
	 
	 	12.5.3.	 	Licensee shall provide HBS with a written report, sworn to by an authorized
officer of Licensee, detailing all inventory of the Game Cards, access codes and
Localized Games in its possession at the effective date of termination within ten
(10) business days. Licensee shall have no sell-off rights whatsoever and as set
forth in Section 12.5.2, any remaining inventory of Game Cards, access codes and
Localized Games shall become the property of HBS without any payment by HBS to
Licensee and shall be promptly delivered to HBS at a destination designated by HBS at
Licensee’s expense.
	 
	 	12.5.4.	 	Save where the Agreement is terminated on the grounds that Licensee has failed to
obtain the requisite approvals, license, permits and/or permission from the
government and regulatory authorities pursuant to Section 2.1 and referenced in
Section 12.4.10, the Minimum Guarantee and/or Royalties due for the current Period in
which the termination is effected, as well as the Minimum Guarantee for the
immediately following Period, and all other payments due and owing shall be
immediately due and payable to HBS within ten (10) days of the effective date of
termination for cause. In the event HBS terminates this Agreement for cause,
Licensee shall not be entitled to, and shall waive its right to make any claim to,
any refund of any fees or other payments made by Licensee to HBS under this
Agreement. HBS reserves all other rights and remedies available at law or equity.
	 
	 	12.6. 	 	Survival. HBS’s rights and Licensee’s obligations to pay HBS all amounts due
hereunder, as-well as Sections 3, 6, 8-14 and any provision of this Agreement that
expressly states that it shall survive termination or expiration shall survive
termination or expiration of this Agreement or any determination that this Agreement
or any portion hereof or exhibit hereto is void or voidable.

	13.	 	Non-Disclosure or Use. In the course of this Agreement, it is anticipated that either
Licensee or HBS will learn confidential or proprietary information about Flagship/HBS and/or
Licensee. Each Party shall keep in trust and confidential this information and any other
information which other Party may acquire with respect to Flagship’s/HBS’s business,
including, but not limited to, information developed and relating to new products, product
plans, product designs, customers, technology, computer codes, trade secrets, pricing,
know-how, inventions, techniques, programs, algorithms, schematics, documentation, business
opportunities, processes, and practices, and any information that ought, in good faith, to be
treated as confidential given its nature and/or the circumstances of its disclosure, unless
and until the other Party consents to disclosure, or unless such knowledge and information
otherwise becomes generally available to the public through no fault of the receiving Party.
Neither Party shall disclose to others, without the other Party’s consent, the subject of this
relationship without first providing the other Party with the opportunity to review and offer
reasonable objection to the contemplated publication. In addition to the duty to maintain such
confidential information in strictest confidence, Each Party shall take all reasonable
precautions to prevent its unauthorized dissemination and to refrain from sharing any or all
of the-information with any third party for any reason whatsoever except as required by court
order, both during and after the termination of this Agreement. Without limiting the scope of
this duty, each Party agrees to limit its internal distribution of the confidential
information only on a “need to know” basis, solely to those who are informed of the
confidential nature of such information and agree to be bound by the terms of confidentiality
under this Agreement, and solely in connection with the performance of

			
	 	 	 
	HBS Hellgate: London License:
	 	Page 29
	Rev. 12/7/2006
	 	CONFIDENTIAL

 

 

this Agreement, and to take steps to ensure that the dissemination is so limited. Each Party
shall require each of its employees performing services relating to the Game to execute a
Confidentiality Agreement, if requested by HBS. This undertaking to keep information confidential
shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

It is understood, however that the restrictions listed above shall not apply to any portion of
confidential information which: (i) was previously known to the receiving Party without
obligations of confidentiality; (ii) is obtained after the Effective Date of this Agreement from a
third party which is lawfully in possession of such information and not in violation of any
contractual or legal obligation to the disclosing Party with respect to such information; (iii) is
or becomes part of the public domain through no fault of Licensee; (iv) is independently
ascertainable or developed by the receiving Party or its employees; (v) is required to be
disclosed by administrative or judicial action, or stock exchange regulation provided that the
receiving Party immediately after receiving notice of such action notifies the other Party of such
action to give the other Party the opportunity to seek any other legal remedies to maintain such
confidential information in confidence; or (vi) is approved for release by written authorization
of the disclosing Party. Each Party agrees that the terms and conditions, and this Agreement
itself, shall be considered confidential information, except as expressly otherwise stated in this
Agreement.

Licensee acknowledges and agrees that the Game, the Client, the Server Software, the terms of this
Agreement and all component parts of all of the foregoing are the confidential or proprietary
information of Flagship/HBS. Licensee agrees not to use the confidential information for its own
benefit or for the benefit of any third party, or Other than in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement. All such confidential information remains the property of
Flagship/HBS. Promptly at the termination of this Agreement for any reason, Licensee shall return
to HBS all originals and copies of any material in any form containing or representing the
confidential information, including but not limited to all computer codes, discs, drawings,
specifications, manuals and other printed or reproduced material (including information stored on
machine readable media), or shall destroy the same at the request of Flagship/HBS.

Since
unauthorized transfer of Flagship/HBS’s confidential information will substantially diminish
its value and injure Flagship/HBS in ways that cannot be remedied fully by money, Licensee’s
breach of these Section 13 obligations will entitle Flagship/HBS to equitable relief (including
orders for specific performance and injunctions), as well as monetary damages.

14. General.

	 	14.1.	 	Relationship of the Parties. Licensee’s relationship with HBS during
the term of this Agreement will be that of an independent contractor. Licensee will
not have, and shall not represent that it has, any power, right or authority to bind
HBS, or to assume or create any obligation or responsibility express or implied, on
behalf of HBS or in HBS’s name, except as herein expressly provided. Nothing stated in
this Agreement shall be construed as making partners of Licensee and HBS, nor as
creating the relationships of employer/employee, franchisor/franchisee, or
principal/agent between the parties. In all matters relating to this Agreement,
neither Licensee nor its employees or agents are, or shall act as, employees of HBS
within the meaning or application of any obligations or liabilities to HBS by reason of
an employment relationship. Licensee shall reimburse HBS for and hold it harmless from
any liabilities or obligations imposed or attempted to be imposed upon HBS by virtue of
any such law with respect to employees of Licensee in performance of this Agreement.
	 
	 	14.2.	 	Assignment. The rights granted to Licensee hereunder are personal in
nature and Licensee agrees that this Agreement shall not be assignable, nor may Licensee
delegate its duties hereunder without the prior written consent of HBS and Flagship.
Any attempted delegation or assignment without the required consent shall be void and of
no effect.
	 
	 	14.3.	 	Waiver and Modification. No waiver or modification of the Agreement
shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom such waiver or
modification is asserted. Waiver by either party in any instance of any breach of any
term or condition of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent
breach of the same or any other term or condition hereof. None of the terms or
conditions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived by course of dealing or
trade usage.

	 	14.4.	 	Notices. All notices and demands hereunder shall be in writing and shall be served
by personal delivery, express courier, or mail at the address of the receiving party set forth
in this Agreement (or at such different address as may be designated by such party by written
notice to the other party), and shall be deemed complete upon receipt. All notices or
demands by mail shall be by certified or registered airmail, return receipt requested. If
receipt of such notice or demand is refused or a party has changed its address without
informing the other, the notice shall be deemed to have been given and received upon the
seventh (7th) day following the date upon which it is first postmarked by the postal service
of the sender’s nation. Licensee shall notify HBS in writing of any material claim or
proceeding involving the Game within the Territory within seven (7) days after Licensee learns
of such claim or proceeding. Licensee shall also immediately report to HBS all claimed or
suspected product defects. Licensee shall also notify HBS in writing not more than seven (7)
days after any change in the management or control of Licensee or any transfer of a majority
share of Licensee’s voting control or a transfer of substantially all its assets. Licensee
shall provide written notice the Chief Executive Officer of HBS.
	 
	 	14.5.	 	Attorney’s Fees. In the event any legal or administrative action or proceeding (an
“Action”) is brought by either party in connection with this Agreement, the prevailing party
in such Action shall be entitled to recover from the other party all the costs, attorneys’
fees and other expenses incurred by such prevailing party in such Action.
	 
	 	14.6.	 	Complete Execution. This Agreement shall become effective only after it has been
executed by Licensee, HBS and Flagship.
	 
	 	14.7.	 	Choice of Law, Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of California, USA. THE APPLICATION OF THE UNITED
NATIONS CONVENTION OF CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS
IS EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED.
If any dispute, difference of opinion or claim which HBS and Licensee are unable to resolve
through amicable negotiation arises out of, or in connection with this Agreement, either party
may, after having the other party hereto so notified with a notice period of no less than
twenty (20) days, refer the matter in question to arbitration for settlement in accordance
with the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce by one or more (maximum
of three (3)) arbitrators appointed in accordance with the said Rules. The arbitration shall
be conducted in Seoul, Republic of Korea, Both parties hereby submit to the jurisdiction of
such body over each of them personally in connection with such litigation, and waive any
objection to venue and any claim that such forum is an inconvenient forum. Notwithstanding
any of the foregoing to the contrary, Licensee hereto voluntarily and irrevocably submits and
consents to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of California, San
Francisco county, including Federal courts located therein, should Federal jurisdiction
requirements exist, in any action brought by Flagship to enforce (or otherwise relating to)
this Agreement, and Licensee hereby waives any objection thereto on
the basis of personal
jurisdiction or venue. The English-language version of this Agreement controls when
interpreting this Agreement and all proceedings shall be conducted in English.
	 
	 	14.8.	 	Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a
court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provision shall be
enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the remaining portions of this Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect. In the event the infirmed provision causes the contract to
fail of its essential purpose, then the entire Agreement shall fail and become void.
	 
	 	14.9.	 	Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be responsible for any failure to perform due to
unforeseen circumstances or cause beyond such Party’s control, including but not limited to
acts of God, war, riot, embargoes; acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods,
accidents, strikes, or shortages of transportation facilities, fuel, energy, labor or
materials.
	 
	 	14.10.	 	Time is of the essence. Licensee acknowledges that time is of the essence
regarding its performance and discharge of all its duties and obligations under this
Agreement.

a third party beneficiary with respect to this Agreement with full power and authority to
enforce the provisions of this Agreement as if a direct party hereto. Sections 9 and 10 of

EXHIBIT D

REVENUE GENERATION MODEL(S)

EXHIBIT D1

	1.	 	Date: The Effective Date.
	 
	2.	 	Revenue generation model type: Game Cards and Online Virtual Game Cards
	 
	3.	 	Description: Game Cards and Online Virtual Game Cards are currently the dominant
payment mechanism for OLMMPs within the Territory. A User purchases a Game Card from a retail
outlet or an Online Virtual Game Card on the Internet in one of varying amounts of currency
which amount is directly associated with the amount of Localized Server Software access time
the User will receive when using the Game Card or Online Virtual Game Card. The Game Card or
Online Virtual Game Card contains a secure window which, when opened, reveals a security code
that the User enters into the Localized Server Software via the Localized Game and/or Internet
after which the User’s account is credited with such amount of time.
	 
	4.	 	Approved Sales Channels. For purposes of the Agreement and this Exhibit D, Licensee
may only distribute and sell (i) Game Cards, Online Virtual Game Cards to distributors,
wholesalers and retailers of video games and/or prepaid cards for resale to Users; and (ii)
Game Cards (but specifically excluding Online Virtual Game Cards) to Users at Licensee-hosted
promotional events for the Game, as previously approved by HBS. Under no circumstances shall
Licensee (i) directly or indirectly sell Game Cards to Users except as provided in the
immediately preceding sentence, or (ii) directly or indirectly sell Online Virtual Game Cards
to Users in any manner (other than through distributors, wholesalers and retailers of video
games and/or prepaid cards as set forth in part (i) of the immediately preceding sentence),
including, without limitation, selling Online Virtual Game Cards to Users through the
Localized Website. To the extent that HBS authorizes (which authorization shall be at HBS’s
sole discretion) Licensee to sell and distribute Game Cards and/or Online Virtual Game Cards
directly to Users, the terms and conditions of such sale and distribution shall be subject to
a separate Exhibit D to be mutually agreed by the Parties.
	 
	5.	 	Royalty payable by Licensee to HBS: Twenty-One percent (21%) of the retail value of
each Game Card and Online Virtual Game Card produced for use with the Localized Server
Software. A Game Card or Online Virtual Game Card shall be deemed “produced” when HBS delivers
the associated security codes to the Game Card manufacturer or Licensee.
	 
	6.	 	Security code acquisition procedure: Licensee will notify HBS of the number of Game
Cards and Online Virtual Game Cards Licensee desires, together with a breakdown of how much
time each card shall credit a User’s account and the corresponding retail value of the card
(e.g., 5,000 total cards: 2,000 of which are 5 hour cards with a retail value of x; 3,000 of
which are 10 hour cards with a retail value of y). HBS will then prepare and transmit to
Licensee an invoice regarding such order. Upon HBS’s receipt of the full amount described on
the invoice (in accordance with Section 6 of the Agreement), HBS shall promptly transmit the
security codes to the Game Card manufacturer and HBS shall enable those codes in the Localized
Server Software. Licensee shall not permit the actual retail Game Card or Online Virtual Game
Card price to deviate from that in a corresponding security code request without the Approval
of HBS, and in the event such Approval is granted and the retail price is increased, HBS will
transmit to Licensee an invoice for the difference due HBS regarding the associated royalty
for such Game Cards and Licensee agrees to pay to HBS such invoiced amount in accordance with
Section 6 of the Agreement within five (5) days of Licensee’s receipt of the invoice. For
purposes of clarification, should Licensee order a number of Game Cards and/or Online Virtual
Game Cards whereby the invoice amount to be paid is in excess of the portion of the Minimum
Guarantee paid for the applicable Quarter, Licensee shall pay such excess amount to HBS
according to the terms of this paragraph 6.
	 
	7.	 	Inventory: Licensee agrees at all times to maintain and distribute a sufficient
inventory of Game Cards and Online Virtual Game Cards to meet User demand throughout the
Territory.
	 
	8.	 	Bundling: Game Cards and Online Virtual Game Cards shall not be capable of enabling
credit toward any other good or service, including any other OLMMP game.

EXHIBIT F 

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT

Beginning on the       day of                                          200 ,                     
                    (“Replicator”) agrees to perform
services for [COMPANY NAME] (“COMPANY NAME”) pursuant to the following terms and conditions:

1. Acting as an independent contractor, Replicator shall render the services as stated in Exhibit 1
(“Services”). Replicator shall take direction from and report to                                         .

2. In consideration for performance of the Services and upon COMPANY NAME’s acceptance of
completion of same, Replicator shall receive from COMPANY NAME a fee which is payable in accordance
with Exhibit 1.

3. Replicator understands that he/she is not authorized to incur any expenses on behalf of COMPANY
NAME without prior written consent, and all statements for the Services and expenses shall be in
the form prescribed by COMPANY NAME and shall be approved by                                         , or his/her supervisor.

4. COMPANY NAME has the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement for any reason
with seven (7) days prior written notice. In the event of such a termination, COMPANY NAME’s sole
obligation shall be to pay Replicator, pro rata, for the fees with respect to all milestones
achieved or Services performed, as applicable, which shall have been accepted as of that date by
COMPANY NAME. COMPANY NAME shall have no further obligation, whether financial or otherwise, to
Replicator after such cancellation. COMPANY NAME may terminate this Agreement immediately upon
Replicator’s refusal or inability to perform pursuant to, or Replicator’s breach of, any provision
of this Agreement.

5. Replicator shall not, either during or subsequent to the term of this Agreement, directly or
indirectly disclose any information designated as confidential by COMPANY NAME; nor shall
Replicator disclose to anyone other than a COMPANY NAME employee or use in any way other than in
the course of the performance of this Agreement any information regarding COMPANY NAME, including
but not limited to COMPANY NAME’s product, market, financial or other plans, product designs and
any other information not known to the general public whether acquired or developed by Replicator
during performance of this Agreement or obtained from COMPANY NAME employees; nor shall Replicator,
either during or subsequent to the term of this Agreement, directly or indirectly disclose or
publish any such information without prior written authorization from COMPANY NAME to do so.
Unless otherwise specifically agreed to in writing, all information about and relating to projects
under development by COMPANY NAME and/or parties doing work under contract to COMPANY NAME
including the Services rendered hereunder by Replicator shall be considered confidential
information. Replicator acknowledges and agrees that all of the foregoing information is
proprietary to COMPANY NAME, that such information is a valuable and unique asset of COMPANY NAME,
and that disclosure of such information to third parties or unauthorized use of such information
would cause substantial and irreparable injury to COMPANY NAME’s ongoing business for which there
would be no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, in the event of any breach or attempted or
threatened breach of any of the terms of this Paragraph 5, Replicator agrees that COMPANY NAME
shall be entitled to seek injunctive and other equitable relief, without limiting the applicability
of any other remedies.

6. Replicator shall return to COMPANY NAME any COMPANY NAME property that has come into his/her
possession during the term of this Agreement, when and as requested to do so by COMPANY NAME and in
all events upon termination of Replicator’s engagement hereunder, unless Replicator receives
written authorization from COMPANY NAME to keep such property. Replicator shall not remove any
COMPANY NAME property from COMPANY NAME premises without written authorization from COMPANY NAME.

7. As part of this Agreement and without additional compensation, Replicator acknowledges and
agrees that any and all tangible and intangible property and work products, ideas, inventions,
discoveries and improvements, whether or not patentable, which are
conceived/developed/created/obtained or first reduced to practice by Replicator for COMPANY NAME in
connection with the performance of the Services (collectively referred to as the “Work Product”),
including, without limitation, all technical notes, schematics, software source and object code,
prototypes,

breadboards, computer models, artwork, sketches, designs, drawings, paintings, illustrations,
computer generated artwork, animations, video, film, artistic materials, photographs, literature,
methods, processes, voice recordings, vocal performances, narrations, spoken word recordings and
unique character voices, shall be considered “works made for hire” and therefore all right, title
and interest therein (including, without limitation, patents and copyrights) shall vest
exclusively in COMPANY NAME. To the extent that all or any part of such Work Product does not
qualify as a “work made for hire” under applicable law, Replicator without further compensation
therefor does hereby irrevocably assign, transfer and convey in perpetuity to COMPANY NAME and its
successors and assigns the entire worldwide right, title, and interest in and to the Work Product
including, without limitation, all patent rights, copyrights, mask work rights, trade secret
rights and other proprietary rights therein. Such assignment includes the transfer and assignment
to COMPANY NAME and its successors and assigns of any and all moral rights which Replicator may
have in the Work Product. Replicator acknowledges and understands that moral rights include the
right of an author: to be known as the author of a work; to prevent others from being named as the
author of the works; to prevent others from falsely attributing to an author the authorship of a
work which he/she has not in fact created; to prevent others from making deforming changes in an
author’s work; to withdraw a published work from distribution if it no longer represents the views
of the author; and to prevent others from using the work or the author’s name in such a way as to
reflect on his/her professional standing.

8. None of the Work Product is to be used by Replicator on any other project or with any other
client except with COMPANY NAME’s written consent. If any part of such Work Product is the work
of a subcontractor employed by Replicator, then Replicator shall require such subcontractors to
execute an assignment document so as to secure for COMPANY NAME exclusive ownership in such Work
Product. In the event Replicator is unable to obtain exclusive ownership from such
subcontractors, Replicator shall obtain a license for the benefit of COMPANY NAME. Replicator
shall promptly thereafter deliver such originally executed assignment or license documents to
COMPANY NAME.

9. With respect to all subject matter including ideas, processes, designs and methods which
Replicator discloses or uses in the performance of the Services: a) Replicator warrants that
Replicator has the right to make disclosure and use thereof without liability or compensation to
others; b) to the extent that Replicator has patent applications, patents or other rights in the
subject matter, Replicator hereby grants COMPANY NAME, subsidiaries and affiliates a royalty-free,
irrevocable world-wide, non-exclusive license to make, have made, sell, use and disclose such
subject matter, excluding only such subject matter, if any, which is set forth in writing in
Exhibit 1 and which is agreed to specifically by COMPANY NAME as being excluded from the grant; and
c) Replicator agrees to defend indemnify and hold COMPANY NAME harmless from any claims,
litigations, actions, damages or fees of any kind (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising
from COMPANY NAME’s or Replicator’s use or disclosure of subject matter which Replicator knows or
reasonably should know others have rights in, except, however, for subject matter and the identity
of others having rights therein that Replicator discloses to COMPANY NAME in writing before COMPANY
NAME uses the subject matter.

10. It is understood and agreed that in performing the Services for COMPANY NAME hereunder,
Replicator shall act in the capacity of an independent contractor and not as an employee or agent
of COMPANY NAME. Replicator agrees that it shall not represent itself as the agent or legal
representative of COMPANY NAME for any purpose whatsoever. When Replicator is working on the
premises of COMPANY NAME, Replicator shall observe the working hours, working rules, and security
procedures established by COMPANY NAME. No right or interest in this Agreement shall be assigned
by Replicator without the prior written permission of COMPANY NAME, and no delegation of the
performance of the Services or other obligations owed by Replicator to COMPANY NAME shall be made
without the prior written consent of COMPANY NAME. This Agreement shall be deemed to have been
made and executed in the State of California and any dispute arising hereunder shall be resolved in
accordance with the law of California. This Agreement may be amended, altered or modified only by

defined below) exist) and joint and several guaranty of the Guarantor regarding the obligations of

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

HBS contemplates entering into a License and Distribution Agreement to be dated of even date
herewith (as amended from time to time, the “Agreement”) with DRAGONGATE ENTERPRISES LIMITED, a
company incorporated under the laws of British Virgin Islands, having its principal office at ____ Akara
Building, 24 De Castro Street, Wickhams Cay I, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands (the
“Obligor”). It is a condition to the obligation of HBS to enter into and perform its obligations
under the Agreement that the Guarantor execute this Guaranty in favor of the Companies. The
Guarantor is willing to provide this Guaranty to induce the Companies to enter into and perform its
obligations under the Agreement.

     Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to
such terms in the Agreement.

     1. Guaranty; Direct Obligations. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein,
the Guarantor hereby irrevocably (during the period in which Guaranteed Obligations (as defined
below) exist) guarantees to the Companies (i) the full and prompt payment when due of all the
payment obligations of the Obligor under the Agreement, whether for revenue share obligations,
payments of advances or otherwise, and (ii) the full and prompt performance by the Obligor of all
of its performance obligations in respect of the Agreement (clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the
“Guaranteed Obligations”). In the event of any default by the Obligor in the payment or
performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantor shall, on demand by Notice (as
hereinafter defined), forthwith pay in full to the Companies and perform such Guaranteed
Obligations; provided, however, that Guarantor’s obligations hereunder are subject in their
entirety to any and all laws, regulations or equitable principles now or hereafter in effect which
would modify or restrict the Guaranteed Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties
hereto acknowledge and agree that the obligations of Guarantor hereunder are joint and several and
accordingly, the Companies may seek to enforce such obligations against one or both of the entities
comprising the Guarantor for the full Guaranteed Obligations, each of which has agreed to guaranty,
and be liable for, jointly and severally, the Guaranteed Obligations.

     2. Absolute Obligation; Waiver of Defenses.

     2.1 Invalidity. The Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations shall be absolute
irrespective of any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Obligor in
Section 8.1 of the Agreement or by the Guarantor in this Guaranty.

     2.2 Protest. The Guarantor hereby waives any protest, diligence, demand or notice with
respect to any breach by the Obligor of its obligations under the Agreement, except for demand by
Notice for payment or performance of this Guaranty as provided in Section 1, and the
Guarantor hereby waives the filing of any proof of claim or any diligence with respect to any
proceeding of bankruptcy, insolvency, winding up, receivership, reorganization or analogous
proceeding of the Obligor.

Rev. 12/7/2006

CONFIDENTIAL

 

 

     2.3 Modification. The Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations shall be
absolute irrespective of (i) any amendment, modification, waiver or consent of the Companies with
respect to the Agreement, whether or not the Guarantor has received Notice thereof or has given
consent thereto, including any change in the time, manner, place or currency of payment or any
change in the amount of the payment of obligations of the Obligor thereunder or any postponement or
indulgence granted by the Companies with respect to the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or
the performance by the Obligor of any term of the Agreement and (ii) any amendment, modification,
waiver, release or termination of any rights of the Companies pursuant to the Agreement or any
amendment, modification, waiver, release or termination of any rights, mortgages, security
interests, liens, charges or other encumbrances created pursuant to the Agreement notwithstanding
that any such amendment, modification, waiver, release or termination may diminish the value of
assets or collateral, if any, against which the Companies can realize value as an alternative to a
demand for payment or performance under this Guaranty. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, any
such amendment, modification, consent, waiver, release or termination of any rights shall be deemed
to modify the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent that Obligor’s underlying obligations are so
modified.

     2.4 Collection. The Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations shall be
absolute, and the Companies shall have the right to demand and receive payment or performance of
such Guaranteed Obligations without any prior attempt or undertaking to collect amounts past due
from the Obligor or to enforce performance past due by the Obligor and without any attempt or
undertaking to foreclose on, or to realize value from, any collateral. The Guarantor further
agrees that the election of any remedy by the Companies shall not preclude the Companies from the
right to payment or performance under this Guaranty, and this Guaranty shall continue in full force
and effect and constitute the enforceable obligation of the Guarantor notwithstanding the
dismissal, compromise or abandonment of any proceeding against the Obligor or in relation to the
Agreement; provided, however, that prior to compromising or settling any proceeding against
the Obligor or in relation to the Agreement, the Companies shall provide not less than ten (10)
business days prior written notice to Guarantor. In the event that the Companies do elect to
undertake collection from the Obligor or does elect to enforce the Agreement, any deficiency or
remaining amount due following such collection proceeding is guaranteed hereunder as a Guaranteed
Obligation and shall be paid by the Guarantor without limitation. If the Companies, by taking any
action or commencing any proceeding were to forfeit or release any rights against the Guarantor
because of the application of any laws or equitable principles relating to the “election of
remedies”, then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Guarantor hereby waives and consents
to such action or proceeding by the Companies constituting such “election of remedies”, and such
waiver and consent shall be effective even if that results in a full or partial loss by the
Guarantor of any rights of subrogation, contribution or reimbursement that the Guarantor might
otherwise have had, again provided that prior to compromising or settling any proceeding against
the Obligor or in relation to the Agreement, the Companies shall provide not less than ten (10)
business days prior written notice to Guarantor.

     2.5 Bankruptcy. The Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations
shall be absolute notwithstanding the commencement of any proceeding in bankruptcy,
receivership, reorganization or analogous proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy Code of
1978, as amended, 11 U.S.C. Secs. 101-1330 (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or any other foreign laws
similar thereto with respect to the Obligor, The Guaranteed Obligations shall not be modified or
affected by reason of any election by the Companies in any such proceeding of the application of
Section 1111 (b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar election in an analogous proceeding or by
the disallowance under the Bankruptcy Code or foreign laws similar thereto of all or any portion of
the claims of the Companies for payment or performance by the Obligor of its obligations under the
Agreement. The Guarantor consents and agrees that the Companies shall be under no obligation to
marshal any assets or property of the Obligor in order to protect the interest of the Guarantor
with respect to any claims, by subrogation or otherwise, for reimbursement after payment by the
Guarantor to the Companies hereunder.

     3. Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor hereby represents and warrants
that, as of the
date of this Guaranty: (i) the Guarantor is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the place of its incorporation or organization; (ii) this Guaranty has been duly
and validly authorized and executed by persons with authority to bind the Guarantor and constitutes
the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor, enforceable against the Guarantor in
accordance with its terms (subject to the effect, if any, of applicable bankruptcy and other
similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and rules of law governing specific
performance, injunctive relief and other equitable remedies); (iii) no authorization or approval or
other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is
required for the due execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantor of this Guaranty, except
for such notices and filings which, if not filed, would not have a material adverse effect on the
Guarantor and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; (iv) the execution, delivery

and performance by the Guarantor of this Guaranty do not and will not conflict with, contravene,
violate or result in a breach of or default under any laws applicable to the Guarantor or any
order, decree or judgment of any court or governmental authority binding on the Guarantor or any
agreement or instrument to which the Guarantor is a party or by which it or any of its assets are
bound, except for such conflicts, contraventions, violations, breaches or defaults as would not
have a material adverse effect on the Guarantor and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and will
not result in or require the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any
assets of the Guarantor, except for such liens, charges or encumbrances as would not have a
material adverse effect on the Guarantor and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and (v) the
Guarantor is solvent and able to pay its debts as they become due.

     4. Currency. All sums payable by the Guarantor hereunder shall be payable to the
Companies in the currency, place and manner of payment required by the Agreement.

     5. Survival. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until payment in full
and performance in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.

     6. Cumulative Rights. No failure on the part of the Companies to exercise, and no
delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not alternative or
exclusive, and such rights and remedies shall exist in addition to all other rights and remedies of
the Companies in relation to this Guaranty and the Agreement in accordance with the provisions
thereof and applicable law. Failure by the Companies at any time or times hereafter to require
strict performance by the Obligor or the Guarantor of any of the terms and conditions of this
Guaranty or of the Agreement shall not waive, release or diminish any right of the Companies at any
other time to demand strict performance thereof, and such right shall not be deemed to have been
waived or released by any act, course of conduct or knowledge of the Companies, its agents,
officers or employees, unless such waiver or release is contained in an instrument in writing
signed by the Companies. No waiver by the Companies of any default of the Obligor or the Guarantor
shall operate as a waiver of any other default or the same default on a future occasion. Any
determination by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction of the amount of the Guaranteed
Obligations shall be conclusive and binding on the Guarantor irrespective of whether the Guarantor
was a parly to the suit or action in which such determination was made; provided, however,
that prior to seeking such determination, the Companies shall provide not less than ten (10)
business days prior written notice to Guarantor.

     7. Amendments. This Guaranty may be amended, supplemented, waived or modified only by
an instrument in writing signed by the Guarantor and consented to by the Companies.

     8. Assignments. This Guaranty shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
Parties’ permitted successors and permitted assigns. Guarantor may not assign this Agreement, in
whole or in part, without the Companies’ written consent.

     9. Notices. All notices and demands hereunder shall be in writing and shall be served by
personal delivery,
express courier, or mail at the address of the receiving party set forth in the Agreement (or at
such different address as may be designated by such party by written notice to the other party),
and shall be deemed complete upon receipt. All notices or demands by mail shall be by certified or
registered airmail, return receipt requested. If receipt of such notice or demand is refused or a
party has changed its address without informing the other, the notice shall be deemed to have been
given and received upon the seventh (7th) day following the date upon which it is first postmarked
by the postal service of the sender’s nation.

     10. Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Guarantee shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of California, USA. THE APPLICATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS
CONVENTION OF CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS IS EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED. If any dispute,
difference of opinion or claim which HBS and Guarantor are unable to resolve through amicable
negotiation arises out of, or in connection with this Agreement, either party may, after having the
other party hereto so notified with a notice period of no less than twenty (20) days, refer the
matter in question to arbitration for settlement in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the
