NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants made

follows:
1. A new section 2(c) shall be added to the License Agreement to read as

Trademarks, to use or to sublicense others to use, the Trademarks in

sale, offering for sale and distribution of Scoreboards to the Exclusive
Customers in the United States and the non-exclusive, royalty-free
license, in perpetuity, to use, or to sublicense others to use, the
Trademarks in conjunction with the manufacture, promotion, advertising,

to the Non-Exclusive Customers for resale to the Exclusive Customers in
the United States."
2. Licensee agrees that it will comply with all applicable laws and

of Scoreboards.
3. (a) During the term of the License Agreement and thereafter,
Licensee (as defined in the License Agreement) shall be solely
responsible for, defend, indemmity and hold harmless MacMark and
Equilink and their affiliates and their respective affiliates,

Licensee acknowledges that MacMark's or Equilink's approval of any
product pursuant to the License Agreement or promotional materials of
promotional concepts shall not relieve Licensee of its indemnification
obligations under this Paragraph.

their respective officers, directors, employees and agents thereof as
additional insured with respect to claims arising under Section 4(a) of
