This Assignment of License Agreement (the "Agreement") is made as of

WHEREAS, Xxxxx and Licensor have entered into an agreement dated
December 31, 1990 relating to U.S. Patents Nos. 4,554,446 and 4,672,377 and
improvements thereon, (including but not limited to any patent that may issue on
U.S. Application Serial No. 07/856- 250, filed March 25, 1992, or any foreign
patent that application thereon), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit
A (the "License Agreement"), and an addendum, which may be executed, a copy of
which is attached hereto as Exhibit B ( the "Addendum") (collectively referred
to as the "New License Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, Network is desirous of an assignment of all of Xxxxx' rights
under the License Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. The license previously granted to Xxxxx by Licensor pursuant to the
License Agreement is hereby irrevocably assigned to Network.
2. Network hereby assumes responsibility for the fulfillment of all of
the terms and conditions of the License Agreement unless such terms are modified
in writing
signed by Licensor and Network.
3. Licensor hereby consents to and accepts the assignment of
the License Agreement to Network by Xxxxx and agrees that Network shall
have the benefit of all the provisions thereof to the same extent as if
it were an original signatory thereto and were defined as the
"Licensee" as that term is used therein. Xxxxx shall have no further
obligation or liability of any kind to Licensor under the License
Agreement, including, without limitation, any obligation, liability or
responsibility pursuant to Section E of the License Agreement, except
that obligation to Licensor under that agreement attached hereto as
Exhibit C. Licensor acknowledges that as of May 1, 1993, they have
credited Xxxxx with Two Hundred Forty-Four Thousand Dollars ($244,000)
of the Five Hundred Thousand ($500,000) referred to in Section B of the
License Agreement in connection with the reduction of the royalty
thereunder. Xxxxx and Licensor each warrants and represents that the
License Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of said party and
is in full force and effect as of the execution of this Agreement and
agrees to waive any right he or they may have to terminate the License
Agreement pursuant to Section D of the License Agreement based upon any
action or failure to act by any party thereto prior to the date hereof.
4. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, Xxxxx'
only remaining obligation or privilege under the New License Agreement
will be that, should a default in the License Agreement by Network be
alleged, Xxxxx and Network shall promptly be so notified by Licensor.
If a default by Network, including, without limitation, any default
arising with respect to a breach of Section D4 of the License
Agreement, is
2
determined to exist and is not timely cured by Network such that the
license granted by the Licensor under the New License Agreement is
terminated, then upon such termination and subject to Xxxxx curing such
default the Licensor shall immediately grant a license to Xxxxx
identical to that of the License Agreement, as modified by the changes
made by Paragraph 6 hereof.
5. The term of this Agreement shall be the
same as that of the License Agreement subject to the following: (a) If
the term of the License Agreement is reduced without the consent of
Xxxxx, the term of this Agreement shall not be affected by such
modification of the term of the License Agreement and shall continue
for the term as set forth in the License Agreement; and (b) if the New
License Agreement is terminated because all the patents licensed
thereunder are determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of
competent jurisdiction, after all applicable appeals, this Agreement
shall have a term of five (5) years from the date of the final judgment
with respect to said appeals, if such determination is the result of a
challenge by Network, its successors, assigns, sublicensees or directly
or indirectly by any of its shareholders, this Agreement shall have a
term of fifteen (15) years from the date of such final determination;
provided, however, that in no event shall the term of this Agreement
exceed the term that the License Agreement would have had it not been
terminated as described above in this Paragraph 5(b).
6. Licensor agrees that Section M of the License Agreement
has been satisfied in full by the issuance of four (4) shares of the
common stock of Clearing Systems, Inc. ("CSI") to Xxxxxx Xxxxxx and
four (4) shares of the common stock of CSI to
3
Xxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, and that Section M of the License Agreement is hereby
terminated and of no further force or effect.
7. Licensor and Network agree that if any improvement or
extension to the Inventions (as defined in the License Agreement) which
improvement or extension is licensable to Network under Section A2 of
the New License Agreement is not accepted by Network, Xxxxx shall be
entitled to receive immediately from Network and/or Licensor an
exclusive license of such improvement or extension to the same extent
that Network would have been entitled to receive it except for its
failure to accept the license thereof. In the event that Xxxxx accepts
such exclusive license and pays the required expenses with respect to
the improvement or extension in question as required under the License
Agreement, Xxxxx shall be deemed to be granted a sublicense under the
New License Agreement to the extent necessary to enable him to use in
commerce such improvement or extension.
8. As compensation for the assignment all of Xxxxx' rights,
including but not limited to the license under the License Agreement,
Network will pay to Xxxxx Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) per month on
or before the 15th day of such month commencing with the month of June,
1993 until operating kiosks are installed in a second store.
9. Upon installation of operating kiosks in a second store,
the payment to Xxxxx will increase by One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) per
month until it reaches the sum of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) per
month.
10. Following collection by Network and/or its assignee or
sublicensee of
4
gross revenues in an amount sufficient to trigger a
reduction in the royalty percentage payable to Licensor under Section B
of the License Agreement, the compensation set forth in Paragraphs 8
and 9 above will cease and Xxxxx will then receive 1.7777% of the gross
collected revenues of Network and/or its assignee or sublicensee
derived from the business of Network and/or its assignee or sublicensee
as such business pertains to the Inventions (as that term is defined in
the License Agreement) throughout the remainder of the term of the
License Agreement, or $10,000 per month, whichever is greater. If,
however, the License Agreement is terminated pursuant to Paragraph 5(b)
hereof, the royalty payment to Xxxxx under this Agreement shall be
$10,000 per month and no more. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
royalties payable under the License Agreement are reduced under
Paragraph 1 of the Addendum, the royalty payable under this Agreement
shall be (i) 1.7777% of the gross collected revenues of Network and/or
its assignee or sublicensee derived from the business of Network and/or
its assignee or sublicensee as such business pertains to the Inventions
other than those licensed by Xxxxxxxx plus, with respect to Inventions
licensed by Xxxxxxxx, 1.7777% of the gross collected revenues of
Network and/or its assignee or sublicensee derived from the business of
Network and/or its assignee or sublicensee as such business pertains to
the Inventions reduced by an amount proportionate to the reduction in
the royalty payable to Licensor by Network pursuant to Paragraph 1 of
the Addendum or (ii) $10,000 per month, whichever is more. With each
payment required under this Paragraph 10, Network and/or its assignee
or sublicensee will provide Xxxxx a statement of its gross revenues and
that of any assignee or sublicensee and its computation of the payment
5
enclosed therewith (the "Statement"). For purposes of this Agreement,
the terms "assignee" and "sublicensee" are deemed to include one or
more assignee or sublicensee, as the case may be, and any subsequent
assignee or sublicensee.
11. Network may grant sublicenses and make assignments of its
rights with respect to the license assigned to it hereunder, provided
that any such sublicense or assignment shall provide for payments to
Licensor as required by the New License Agreement and for the payment
to Xxxxx of royalties as set forth in Paragraphs 8, 9 and 10 of this
Agreement, if not paid by Network, and further provided that the rights
granted to Xxxxx in Paragraph 13 hereof are contained in such
assignment or sublicense.
12. During the term of this Agreement, Xxxxx will consult with
and provide to Network whatever reasonable assistance may be necessary
and requested by Network in order to achieve the goals of Network.
13. Xxxxx shall have the right at his own expense, and not
more often than once in each calendar quarter, to have a certified
public accountant examine the books of Network and/or its assignees or
sublicensees to verify the Statements. In the event that a discrepancy
of more than 5% of the payments required under paragraph 10 is verified
by Xxxxx' accountant (which verification is not successfully disproved
by Network in a court of competent jurisdiction), Network shall within
60 days pay to Xxxxx all expenses of the examination, including all
reasonable legal fees expended in sustaining any alleged discrepancy,
in addition to the additional royalties due.
14. In the event that any litigation or claim is brought or
made with respect to the New License Agreement or any of the patents
which are the subject matter thereof,
6
including, without limitation, a claim or defense of patent invalidity,
the Licensor shall promptly give notice thereof to Xxxxx and Network
and Xxxxx and/or Network each, at his or its respective option, shall
be entitled at his or its own cost and expense to be present at, and to
participate in, conferences with persons asserting such claim or
lawsuit and any proceedings with respect thereto and to be represented
thereat by attorneys of his or its own choosing.
15. In the event that Xxxxx files a lawsuit against Network
and/or its assignee or sublicensee to collect amounts allegedly owed by
Network and/or its assignee or sublicensee to Xxxxx hereunder and Xxxxx
is the prevailing party in said lawsuit, Xxxxx shall be entitled to
recover from Network and/or its assignee or sublicensee all reasonable
costs, expenses and attorneys' fees incurred by him in connection with
the lawsuit. For the purpose of this Agreement, "prevailing party" is
defined as the party in favor of which any judgment is rendered
regardless of the dollar amount of such judgment.
16. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and
understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements and
understandings related thereto. This Agreement may not be modified or
amended in any manner except by written agreement.
17. The covenants and agreements contained herein shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their
heirs, executors, administrators, successors, legal representatives and
assigns. Without limiting the foregoing in any way, it is specifically
agreed by all parties hereto that Network may assign or
7
sublicense any or all of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement and the New License Agreement to Interactive Networks
Incorporated or any other party.
18. Any notice required or permitted to be sent under the terms
of this Agreement shall be deemed sufficient if transmitted by
certified or registered mail, or any nationally recognized
overnight delivery service, addressed to the parties at the addresses
first above written.
19. This Agreement shall be interpreted under and pursuant to
the laws of the State of North Carolina, and the parties consent to
jurisdiction in said state. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto
have executed this Agreement as of the date first written above.

DATE: 6/10/93
We agreed as follows and I am having the appropriate documents drawn up and
passed around for signatures.
1. The license to Xxxxxxx Xxxxx is current and valid and unbreached in all
respects.
2. Regarding the $5,000 threshold upon which the royalties due will be modified,
the patent holders are credited with $244,000 not including this May and June

5. Xxxxxx/Singer will each receive CSI founders stock in an amount equivalent to
22,911 shares of INI, NC stock. It is planned that INI, NC stock held by CSI
will be distributed to CSI shareholders within the next few months. In any
event, INI, NC agrees to convert Xxxxxx'x and Singer's CSI stock into 22,911
shares of INI, NC stock respectively, if that conversion is not otherwise made
for all CSI shareholders as planned. The plan is that all CSI shareholders will

time, Xxxxxx and Singer will be notified in writing and may request, within one
week and in writing that Xxxxx purchase all or a portion of the stock referred
to in Para. 5 above. If the request is made, then INI, NC will pay the

the ratio of $5.32 per share of INI, NC stock of its equivalent if CSI stock.
