NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, agreements, representations and warranties contained herein, the Parties hereby agree to amend and supplement the DLA and the SA, and otherwise maintain the DLA and the SA unchanged (except as otherwise agreed to in writing) as follows:

ARTICLE I

Definitions

1.01 Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the DLA or the SA, as the case may be. The following capitalized terms, as used herein, shall have the meanings set forth below.

“Affiliate” shall mean any entity which, partially or completely, owns, is owned by or is under common ownership with a Party to this Addendum and which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with a Party to this Addendum. For purposes of this definition, the term “control” including the correlative meanings of the terms “controlled by” and “under common control with”, as used with respect to either Party, shall be

evidenced by ownership of at least 50% of the equity or voting securities of such entity.

“Cash” means any instrument that is not defined as a Derivatives instrument.

“Commodities” means a market for the trading of instruments that represent a physical substance, such as food, grains, energy (oil, natural gas, electricity), and metals.

“Derivatives” mean any instrument that is a contract, agreement, or transaction that:

(a)

Provides, in whole or in part, on a firm or contingent basis, for the purchase or sale of, or is based on the value of, or any interest in, one or more commodities, securities, currencies, interest or other rates, indices, quantitative measures, or other financial or economic interests or property of any kind; or

(b)

Involves any payment or delivery that is dependent on the occurrence or nonoccurrence of any event associated with a potential financial, economic, or commercial consequence; or

(c)

Involves any combination or permutation of any contract, agreement, or transaction or underlying interest, property, or event described in paragraphs (a) or (b) of this section.

For purposes of this definition, derivatives instruments include, but are not limited to options, futures, forwards and warrants. For example, common stock warrants and stock index warrants are equities derivatives; foreign currency warrants are FX derivatives.

“Equities” (also called stocks) means a market for the trading of instruments that represent an ownership position (called equity) in a corporation and represents a claim on its proportional share in the corporation’s assets and profits. In this agreement, unit investment trusts, closed-end funds, preferred stock, stock indexes, American Depository Receipts (ADRs), and Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are all classified as equities cash instruments; common warrants are classified as equities derivatives instruments; and convertible bonds, instruments that can be converted from bonds to stock, are classified equities cash instruments.

“Fixed Income” means a market for the trading of instruments that represent a security that pays an interest rate, such as a bond or preferred stock. A bond may be issued by countries, states, cities, corporations and other organizations. However, since preferred stocks are traded primarily on

equities exchanges, preferred stock, in this agreement, is classified as an equities cash instrument.

“FX” means a market for the trading of instruments that represent currency.

“Guaranteed Enhancement Fee” shall mean the prepaid fee as set forth in Section 3.03(b) which shall be applied to, and used as payment for, the cost of hours to develop any agreed future enhancements under the SA within five (5) years from Effective Date pursuant to a predefined conversion ratio of 2:1 from license fee to Guaranteed Enhancement Fee.

“Standard Pricing Table” shall have the meaning set forth in Schedule 2.

valid from the Effective Date and until 5 years thereafter, and will only be applicable for ISE and its Affiliates and any third party in which the ISE holds [***]% or more of the equity, however, if ISE controls at least [***]% but less than [***]% of the equity or voting securities of a third-party, the discount will be linearly reduced. For example, if ISE controls [***]% of a third-party, the discount will be calculated to [***]% ([***]% * [***]%= [***]%). Control of less than [***]% will not qualify ISE for any discount.
