participating organizations designated on Exhibit A attached hereto, as both
---------
parties may update from time to time by mutual agreement (the "Participating
-------------
Organizations"), all of whom are represented by Loop, by providing a link to
-------------
Jutvision's Web site (the "Jutvision Link") from Loop's Web site that will allow
--------------
Participating Organizations to order electronic virtual tours in ".jut" format
of listed properties ("Virtual Tours") from Jutvision.
-------------
NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

--------------
link, associated graphic icon or logo provided by Jutvision and Uniform Resource
Locator ("URL") "xxx.xxxxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxxx/xxxxxxx". The Jutvision Link will link

by a Participating Organization.

of performing its services hereunder, acquires any goodwill or reputation in any
of the trademarks, service marks or trade names of the other party, all such
goodwill or reputation will automatically vest in the party originally owning
such marks when and as, on an ongoing basis, such acquisition of goodwill or
reputation occurs, and each party agrees to take all such actions necessary to
effect such vesting. Each party, as licensee hereunder, agrees to use all such
marks licensed by the other party in a manner commensurate with the style,

quantity and quality and in the same time period and geographic region, for
commercial properties in the United States. In the event Jutvision offers
Virtual Tours for commercial properties in the United States to other customers
at more favorable prices, terms or conditions, subject to the qualifications in
the preceding sentence, Jutvision will promptly notify Loop and the

Participating Organizations, effective upon the date the more favorable prices,
terms or conditions were offered to other customers.
6. Confidentiality.
---------------
6.1 Confidential Information. The parties acknowledge that by reason

publicly known and made generally available after disclosure to the recipient by
the other party through no action or inaction of the recipient; or (iii) was
