that Toshiba provides sample user documentation
or other consumer oriented materials to
purchasers of the Combined Engine Component for
distribution outside Japan, such sample user
documentation or other consumer-oriented
materials shall also include the Wink Logo.
Toshiba will also include in the user
documentation, or other materials describing
functionality of the Combined Engine Product for
distribution outside Japan, Wink copyright and
proprietary notices. The content and location of
such notices shall be agreed by the parties. To
the extent that Toshiba provides sample user
documentation or other consumer-oriented
materials to purchasers of the Combined Engine
Component for distribution outside Japan, such
sample user documentation or other
consumer-oriented materials shall also include
Wink copyright and proprietary notices, in the
same manner as presented in Toshiba's own user
documentation or other consumer-oriented
materials.
9.2.2 Use of Wink Logo on Combined Engine Products. In
recognition of the fact that Wink intends to establish
Wink's brand as a consumer-recognized enhancement to
consumer electronics products, Toshiba agrees to affix
by silk-screening or other permanent method the Wink
Logo on Combined Engine Products to be distributed
outside Japan by Toshiba or a subdistributor. The Wink
Logo must be affixed in a prominent location on such
Combined Engine Products and the remote controls for
such products. It is satisfactory for the Wink Logo to
be subordinate to other logos, such as the Toshiba logo,
so long as the Wink Logo is presented distinctly and
legibly. If the nature of the affixing requires changes
to the Wink Logo, Wink and Toshiba shall mutually agree
on such changes.
9.3 No Registration of Wink Marks. Except as expressly set forth in
this Agreement, nothing shall grant to Toshiba or its
subdistributors any right, title or interest in the Wink Marks.
At no time during the term of this Agreement shall Toshiba
register, attempt to register or cause the registration of any
of the Wink Marks other than in Wink's name and at Wink's
specific written request, except in the event Toshiba adopts,
uses or acquires a trademark, xxxx or trade name substantially
similar to a Wink Xxxx xxxxx to Wink's adoption, use or
acquisition of such Xxxx Xxxx. Except to the extent such acts
may not be prohibited by applicable law, at no time during the
term of this Agreement shall Toshiba or its subdistributors
challenge or assist others to challenge the Wink Marks or the
registration thereof.

9.4 Press Releases. The parties intend to cooperate and participate
in public relations programs to promote the Licensed Engine
Products and the relationship between the parties. Appropriate
personnel from each party shall participate in such public
relations program. The parties shall cooperate with respect to
and mutually approve (not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed) all press releases issued by either party with respect
to this Agreement or the parties' relationship. Such approval is
intended to protect the timing of disclosure of the availability
of the Licensed Engine Products and of the existence of the
parties' relationship, as well as to ensure proper references,
accurate information and correct proprietary notices and
information. The contents of each press release shall be agreed
upon between the parties from time to time. Unless otherwise
agreed in writing by the parties, any press release issued
outside Japan pursuant to this Section shall contain: (i) in the
body of the release, the name and location of both parties; (ii)
in a footnote at the end of the release, both parties'
proprietary notices with respect to technology discussed in the
body of the release. Whenever feasible, the press release shall
also include the logo of each party.
9.5 Disclosures of Terms and Relationship. Each party agrees not to
disclose the terms of this Agreement to any third party without
the other's written consent in its sole discretion, except to
such party's accountants, attorneys and other professional
advisors, or as required by securities or other applicable laws.
9.6 Units for Marketing and Employee Use. Upon written request from
Wink, Toshiba agrees to sell to Wink, at Toshiba's wholesale
price, a maximum of two-hundred and fifty (250) units of each
Combined Engine Product and a maximum of ten (10) Combined

mutually agreed from time to time at current Wink training rates
at the time training is provided.
10.5 Travel Expenses. In the event that, in the performance of its
services under Section 10 of this Agreement it is mutually
agreed by the parties that employees or contractors of Wink will
travel from Wink's facility, Toshiba shall pay and/or promptly
reimburse Wink for, all reasonable travel, room and board, car
rental and other similar expenses associated with such travel.
Notwithstanding the above, if both parties agree that travel by
Wink employees or contractors is necessary to fix bugs that are
Wink's fault, the expenses for such travel shall be borne by
Wink, unless otherwise agreed.
10.6 Source Code Escrow. Upon written request, Wink agrees to enter
into a Source Code Escrow Agreement in a form mutually
agreeable, governing the release of the source code of the
Licensed Engine Product. Expenses associated with such agreement

obligations under Section 13 (entitled "Confidentiality") of
this Agreement, the non-breaching party may immediately
terminate this Agreement and the remaining other Wink/Toshiba
Agreements upon written notice to the breaching party. If
Toshiba breaches the scope of any license grant under any of the
Wink/Toshiba Agreements, Wink may give written notice to Toshiba
that if such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days, this
Agreement and the other Wink/Toshiba Agreements shall terminate
immediately at the end of such thirty (30) day period. If either

written notice given by a party, at such party's option and
without further notice, upon the earlier of: (i) the institution
by or against the other party of insolvency, receivership or
bankruptcy proceedings or any other proceedings for the

third party a license under Wink's Intellectual Property Rights to the
Wink Engine which is in all material respects equivalent to this
Agreement and which contains provisions requiring the third party to
make payments at rates of royalty and payment terms more favorable than
provided in this Agreement, then Toshiba shall be entitled to have the
same royalty rate payable by such third party provided that Toshiba
accepts all other terms and conditions of the agreement with such third
party so that after such acceptance of all other terms and conditions,
Toshiba's agreement with Wink is identical to the third party's
agreement with Wink.
13 CONFIDENTIALITY
13.1 Obligation of Confidentiality. The parties acknowledge that by
reason of their relationship to each other hereunder, each may
have access to certain information and materials concerning the
other's business, plans, customers, technology and products that
is confidential and of substantial value to that other party,
which value would be impaired if such information were disclosed
to third parties ("Confidential Information"). Information
provided in writing shall be deemed Confidential Information if
it has been clearly identified by the disclosing party as
confidential; for Confidential Information which is orally
disclosed, the disclosing party shall indicate to the receiving
party at the time of disclosure the confidential nature of the
information and designate it as confidential in a written
memorandum sent to the receiving party within thirty (30) days
of disclosure, summarizing the confidential information

Confidential Information shall include the source code of the
Licensed Engine Products. Each party agrees that, for a period
of seven (7) years after receipt of any Confidential Information
other than source code and for an indefinite period (i.e.,
perpetually) regarding the source code, it shall not use in any
way, for its own account or the account of any third party, nor
disclose to any third party, except as may be expressly
permitted under this Agreement, any such Confidential
Information revealed to it by the other party and shall take
every reasonable precaution to protect the confidentiality of
such information. Upon request by either party, the other party
shall advise whether or not it considers any particular
information or materials to be confidential, provided that the
Licensed Engine Products (except for documentation identified by
Wink as public) shall at all times be deemed Confidential
Information of Wink. Neither party shall develop or have
developed any software programs utilizing any of the other
party's Confidential Information.
-13-

13.2 Exceptions. Information shall not be deemed Confidential
Information hereunder if such information:
13.2.1 Is or becomes part of the public domain through no fault
or breach on the part of the receiving party;
13.2.2 Is known to the receiving party prior to the disclosure
by the disclosing party and such knowledge can be shown
by written records;

the provisions of this Section 13 may cause irreparable harm and
significant injury to an extent that may be extremely difficult

have, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to
it at law or in equity, the right to seek injunctive relief to
enjoin any breach or violation of this Section 13.
14 GENERAL

to the extent that performance is rendered impossible by strike,
fire, flood, earthquake, governmental acts or orders or
restrictions, failure of suppliers, or any other reason where
failure to perform is beyond the reasonable control of and is
not caused by the negligence of the nonperforming party.
14.2 No Waiver. Failure by either party to enforce any provision of

delayed, except that either party may assign its rights and
obligations hereunder to any entity (i) which controls, is
controlled by or is under common control with such party, or
(ii) which acquires all or substantially all of the assets or
business of such party to which this Agreement pertains;
provided, that in both cases such entity shall assume in writing
