Sublicense Terms and Conditions
-------------------------------
1. ITA is hereby authorized to grant to Smartbuy a sublicense to use the
RadioShack Marks as contemplated under the ITA/Smartbuy Agreement, the form
and content of which has been approved by RadioShack. ITA agrees to use its
best efforts to police Smartbuy's use of the RadioShack Marks consistent
with ITA's current obligations under the Agreement.
2. ITA shall have no rights of further sublicense to any party other than
Smartbuy. ITA shall have no right to assign its interest under the
ITA/Smartbuy Agreement, nor shall ITA permit Smartbuy to assign its rights
under the ITA/Smartbuy Agreement, unless and until the prior written
consent of RadioShack is obtained. RadioShack may withhold such consent, in
either event, with or without cause in its sole discretion.
3. As contemplated under the ITA/Smartbuy Agreement, any time ITA and Smartbuy
determine in the future to jointly make decisions regarding, among other
things, the use of product tagging or labeling, graphical depictions,
taglines, promotional materials, etc., which involve in any manner the use
of a RadioShack Xxxx, ITA shall seek the prior written approval of
RadioShack, unless it is clear to ITA under all of the relevant
circumstances, that such proposed usage of any RadioShack Xxxx is in full
accordance with RadioShack's then current Graphics Standards Manual and the
Agreement. In the event ITA is required to obtain RadioShack's prior
written approval, RadioShack will respond to ITA in a prompt manner, which
in any event will not exceed three (3) business days after RadioShack's
receipt of ITA's written request for such approval.
4. RadioShack shall have the right to audit such books and records of ITA from
time to time upon reasonable request and prior notice, relating to (i) the
performance of ITA under the ITA/Smartbuy Agreement with respect to ITA's
obligations thereunder to prevent the shipment by Smartbuy, or ITA, of any
consumer electronics products (whether private label or nationally branded)
from Australia into the United States, including the District of Columbia,
Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands; (ii) the aggregate amount of
"Sales Revenue" generated under the ITA/Smartbuy Agreement and the gross
revenue recorded by ITA as a result of all transactions contemplated under
the ITA/Smartbuy Agreement; and (iii) the proper usage of the RadioShack
Marks in ITA's advertising and packaging. As used in this Addendum A, the
term "Sales Revenue" shall have the meaning as set forth in the
ITA/Smartbuy Agreement.
5. RadioShack may revoke ITA's right to sublicense the RadioShack Marks to
Smartbuy at any time, with immediate effect and without any liability
therefore in any manner whatsoever, upon the occurrence of the following:
(i) RadioShack's discovery that consumer electronic product has been or is
being shipped by ITA or Smartbuy into the territories identified in
4(i) above in violation of the terms of the ITA/Smartbuy Agreement;
(ii) RadioShack's discovery of any under-reporting by ITA of the aggregate
"Sales Revenue," or of ITA's gross revenue, generated under the
ITA/Smartbuy Agreement; or
(iii) ITA permits the persistence of an uncured breach, either by ITA or by
Smartbuy, under the ITA/Smartbuy Agreement which directly or
indirectly relates to or has an effect on any RadioShack Xxxx as
determined in RadioShack's sole discretion, acting reasonably.
6. Any breach by ITA of the terms and conditions of this Addendum A may, in
RadioShack's sole discretion, be deemed to constitute a breach of the
Agreement.
7. ITA agrees to further indemnify and hold harmless RadioShack and those
other entities or persons identified in Section 26 of the Agreement, to the
fullest extent provided in the indemnity provisions of Section 26 of the
Agreement, for any breach by Smartbuy of any provisions of the ITA/Smartbuy
Agreement.
8. To clarify the understanding and intentions of RadioShack and ITA, it is
agreed that the one percent (1.0%) royalty payment contemplated in Section
5 of the Agreement shall be calculated on the aggregate "Sales Revenue"
generated under the ITA/Smartbuy Agreement. In addition to any other
required documentation,
ITA shall provide RadioShack, at the time of any royalty payment, with
sufficient documentation regarding such aggregate "Sales Revenue" in order
for RadioShack to readily determine the correctness of the total ITA
royalty payment.
This Addendum A is dated as of November 9th, 2000.
