Expiration Date"), such expiration date shall be extended to a date
which is the earlier to occur of (i) two years from the PC Option
Expiration Date, or (ii) the date on which the Atari Advance is fully
recouped. Such new expiration date is hereafter referred to as the "PC
Extended Expiration Date." In determining whether the Atari Advance
has been fully recouped for all purposes under this Agreement, amounts
owed by GTIS but not yet reported, paid or credited to the Licensor
shall be deemed recouped by GTIS. The expiration date may be further
extended under the following circumstances. If (a) an Early
Termination Event occurs more than one year prior to the PC Extended
Expiration Date, and (b) GTIS shall not have fully recouped the Atari
Advance by the PC Extended Expiration Date (as such date may be
extended from time to time by future amendments or extensions of GTIS'
first option other than by reason of this
6
sentence), then the expiration date shall be further extended to a date
which is the earlier to occur of (x) the date on which the Atari
Advance is fully recouped or (y) the date, to the nearest calendar
quarter end, determined by adding to the PC Option Expiration Date the
number of days between the date of the Early Termination Event and the
PC Option Expiration Date.
5. Section 2.7 of the GTIS Master PC Agreement shall be amended as
follows:
5.1. Section 2.7.1 shall be amended by adding the following to the

Games as to which GTIS has exercised its rights of review and approval under
Section 2.11 hereof. "
5.2. Section 2.7.2 shall be amended by adding the following to the
first sentence "; provided that this Section 2.7.2 shall not apply to Accepted
Games as to which GTIS has exercised its rights of review and approval under
Section 2.11 hereof."
5.3. Former Section 2.7.3 shall be renumbered as "2.7.4" and any
references within that Section and in the GTIS Master PC Agreement to Section
2.7.3 shall be deemed as amended to read "Section 2.7.4." A new sentence shall
be added after the first sentence of new Section 2.7.4 which shall read as
follows: "If GTIS fails to respond in writing to WMS' notice within ten (10)
Business Days after receipt thereof by GTIS, GTIS shall be deemed to have
consented to WMS' election to terminate development."
5.4. A new Section 2.7.3 shall be added which shall read as
follows:
7
"2.7.3. Subject to the provisions of 2.11 hereof, GTIS shall
bear 50% of the actual costs of development of any Section 2.4 Game or Section
2.5 Game as to which GTIS has exercised its rights of review and approval under
Section 2.11."
6. The GTIS Master PC Agreement shall be amended to add a new Section
2.11 which shall read as follows:
Anything in Sections 2.4 or 2.5 to the contrary notwithstanding, in
the event that after March 31, 1996 the WMS Group desires to hire a
third party developer to develop a Technically Acceptable Master Disk
for an Accepted Game, GTIS shall have the right to review and approve
(such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) the proposed Milestones
prior to the WMS Group entering into a binding agreement with such
developer (such right of review and approval shall not extend to any
terms of the developer agreement other than the Milestones). The WMS
Group shall notify GTIS in writing of its intention to hire such third
party developer and GTIS shall notify WMS in writing within five (5)
Business Days after receipt of the WMS Group notice that GTIS desires
to exercise its right of review and approval of Milestones. GTIS'
failure to timely notify WMS shall be deemed its election not to
exercise such right of review and approval. If GTIS shall exercise
such right, GTIS and WMS shall negotiate in good faith to reach
agreement with respect to the proposed Milestones as
8
THE INFORMATION BELOW MARKED BY * HAS BEEN
OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT.
promptly as practicable. If such agreement is not reached within ten
(10) Business Days after receipt by WMS of GTIS' aforesaid notice, then
WMS may notify GTIS of Milestones which are acceptable to WMS and GTIS
shall have three (3) Business Days after receipt of such notice to
accept such Milestones. If GTIS does not accept such Milestones within
such three (3) Business Day period, WMS may proceed to enter into an
agreement with such developer as if GTIS had elected not to exercise
its right of review and approval. If a developer agreement is signed
following acceptance by GTIS of the Milestones as aforesaid, upon
approval by GTIS and WMS of the material delivered or other
requirements of each of such Milestones, GTIS shall pay to WMS * % of
the Milestone payment within five (5) Business Days after GTIS receives
WMS' invoice therefor. Such payment shall be credited against the
obligations of GTIS to pay WMS * % of the actual costs of code
development simultaneously with the receipt of a Technically Acceptable
Master Disk set forth in Sections 2.4 and 2.5. With respect to any
Technically Acceptable Master Disk for which GTIS is obligated to
fund * % of the Milestone payments, if WMS exercises its rights in
Section 2.7.4 to terminate development, the following shall apply: (i)
if GTIS consents to such termination, neither WMS nor GTIS shall be
entitled to any
9
THE INFORMATION BELOW MARKED BY * HAS BEEN
OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT.
reimbursement of the Milestone payments previously made by the other,
or (ii) if GTIS withholds its consent to such termination, if permitted
by the developer agreement, GTIS may take over the responsibility for
development of a Technically Acceptable Master Disk with the developer
and fund the balance of the development costs. Upon receipt by WMS of a
notice from GTIS that GTIS has received a Technically Acceptable Master
Disk with respect to the Game, WMS shall pay to GTIS, the amount, if
any, by which * % of the original development budget approved by WMS
exceeds the Milestone payments previously made by WMS. If GTIS has
fully funded its obligations to make Milestone payments theretofore
due, GTIS may elect to terminate its obligations to make Milestone
payments with respect to future Milestones on which the developer has
not yet commenced work; provided that GTIS may not so elect unless the
agreement with the developer permits WMS to terminate its obligations
to the developer by making payments only for Milestones previously
achieved or in work or GTIS agrees to pay * % of any actual costs of
terminating the developer agreement. If GTIS properly elects to
terminate its obligation to make Milestone payments, (i) if WMS agrees
to such termination and also terminates the developer agreement,
neither WMS nor GTIS shall be entitled to any
10
THE INFORMATION BELOW MARKED BY * HAS BEEN
OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT.
reimbursement of the Milestone payments previously made by the other,
or (ii) if WMS elects to continue development of the Technically
Acceptable Master Disk, GTIS shall be entitled to reimbursement of the
Milestone payments previously made by it upon completion by WMS of the
Technically Acceptable Master Disk, but GTIS shall be deemed to have
waived any future rights to distribute or license the version of the
Game embodied in the Technically Acceptable Master Disk. GTIS shall
hold WMS harmless for any claims by developers against the WMS Group by
reason of GTIS' failures to make timely Milestone payments as required
under this Section. WMS shall use all reasonable efforts to cause
agreements with developers entered into after March 31, 1996 which
relate to Technically Acceptable Master Disks for which GTIS is making
* % of the Milestone payments to provide for GTIS to have the right to
assume the rights and obligations under that agreement should WMS elect
to terminate the agreement and GTIS elect to continue it. If both WMS
and GTIS elect to terminate a developer agreement and any proceeds are
subsequently generated from the abandoned project, the proceeds shall
be shared by WMS and GTIS in proportion to their Milestone payments
made with respect to such abandoned project. All ownership and rights
in software, artwork, literary text, designs
11
and other works, and all intellectual property relating thereto, which
would have vested in a member of the WMS Group but for such termination
shall vest in such member of the WMS Group, not GTIS, even if GTIS
assumes the developer agreement, and the WMS Group shall remain
entitled to all of the benefits of the representations and warranties,
indemnifications, confidentiality provisions, restrictions, covenants
and other obligations of the developer which would survive termination
of such agreement. The provisions of tlus Section 2.11 are in all
cases subject to the provisions of Section 2.12. For developer
agreements in respect of which GTIS has agreed to make Milestone
payments, the WMS Group shall provide GTIS a copy of the final version
of the developer agreement within ten (10) Business Days after the same
is signed; provided, however, that the WMS Group shall have the right
to redact any information in that agreement relating to third parties
which does not affect GTIS' rights or obligations.
7. The GTIS Master PC Agreement shall be amended to add a new Section
2.12 which shall read as follows:
2.12 If permitted under existing agreements with third parties,
WMS agrees to submit its choice of third party developers to be
selected under Sections 2.4 and 2.5 of this Agreement to GTIS for GTIS'
approval, such approval not to be unreasonably
12
withheld, and, GTIS shall notify WMS of its decision with respect to
such developer within five (5) Business Days after receipt by GTIS of
WMS' notice. If the Technically Acceptable Master Disk being developed
is based upon a coin-operated game which has been released within the
24 month period preceding WMS' request for GTIS' approval of the
developer, or is released after such request for approval but prior to
the release of the home version of such Game, WMS shall have the final
decision in selecting the developer if a representative of WMS' coin-
operated game development group advises GTIS in writing that the
selection of a particular developer is important to such group. In all
other circumstances, if GTIS reasonably disapproves of the developer
suggested by WMS, that developer shall not be used and a new developer
shall be selected by WMS subject to GTIS' right of approval as provided
above in this Section 2.12.
8. The GTIS Master PC Agreement shall be amended to add a new Section
2.13 which shall read as follows:
Royalties payable to WMS pursuant to Schedule B of the Home
Computer Software Distribution and License Agreement are measured by
the wholesale prices of Licensed Product. Accordingly, reasonably in
advance of WMS' decision to enter into a developer contract and
reasonably in advance of GTIS'
13
initial release of the Licensed Product, GTIS shall advise WMS, at WMS'
request, of GTIS' expected pricing strategy and the reasons therefor.
Nothing herein shall be deemed to restrict GTIS' freedom in selecting
wholesale sales prices it considers appropriate, which shall be in
GTIS' sole discretion.
9. The GTIS Master PC Agreement shall be amended to add a new Section
2.14 which shall read as follows:
If, under Section 2.1 of any Home Computer Software Distribution
and License Agreement entered into under this Agreement, Licensor has
granted written approval (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) to
Licensee of a specific sublicensee for the Licensed Property, such
approval shall apply to the sublicensing by that sublicensee of all
Licensed Properties licensed to Licensee under Home Computer Software
Distribution and License Agreements entered into under this Agreement,
subject to the following: (i) the sublicense agreements shall contain
provisions with respect to quality of Licensed Product, trademarks,
copyrights, materials, other intellectual property rights, rights of
additional sublicensing or assignment, termination rights,
confidentiality, accounting, auditing, reporting and payment procedures
in form agreed to by GTIS and WMS, and the form as so agreed to may be
used by all approved sublicensees described
14
THE INFORMATION BELOW MARKED BY * HAS BEEN
OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT.
in clause (iii) below; provided that if such form is not so used, any
other form to be used shall be subject to prior approval as provided in
this subsection (i); (ii) no such blanket approval shall be deemed
given with respect to Licensed Properties as to which approval
requirements imposed by third parties, such as the NFL and NBA, apply,
(iii) if the sublicense is for a Marketing Area other than those
designated as Key Marketing Areas in such Home Computer Software
Distribution and License Agreement and if the expected sales volume in
such Marketing Area, in GTIS' good faith judgment, is an average of *
units or less per SKU per year, Licensee will not be required to obtain
Licensor's prior written approval of the terms of such license but
Licensee will be required to provide a copy of each sublicense to
Licensor within ten (10) Business Days after GTIS enters into such
sublicense; and (iv) if the Marketing Area is designated as a Key
Marketing Area or if, in GTIS' good faith judgment, the expected sales
volume for such Marketing Area is more than an average of * units per
SKU per year, Licensee will be required to obtain Licensor's prior
written approval, which Licensor will not unreasonably withhold, of the
terms of a sublicense for such Marketing Area even if the identity of
the sublicensee has been previously approved; provided, however, if a
sublicense is for multiple platforms and multiple
15
games, the approval of the sublicense will be deemed to be approval for
all Games distributed under that sublicense (subject to clause (ii)).
Anything to the contrary notwithstanding, (x) if a previously approved
sublicensee becomes an Exporter (as such term is defined in Exhibit A
to the GTIS Master Option and License Agreement (Home Video) dated
March 31, 1995) or a Pirate, Licensee will immediately upon becoming
aware thereof notify Licensor of the identity of such Exporter or
Pirate and as soon as practicable terminate the sublicense upon request
by Licensor, and (y) Licensor and Licensee will review every two years
the identity of sublicensees, and those sublicensees who previously
received blanket approval as provided in the first sentence of this
Section and who are no longer considered acceptable by Licensor, in the
exercise of Licensor's reasonable judgment, will no longer have such
blanket approval and will be subject to Licensor's prior approval with
respect to all future sublicenses in accordance with the approval
procedures set forth above. Licensee shall use all reasonable efforts
to cause each agreement with its sublicensees to permit Licensee to
terminate such agreement immediately if such sublicensee shall be or
become an Exporter or a Pirate.
16
10. Section 7 of the GTIS Master PC Agreement shall be amended to add
at the end thereof, the following:
With respect to this Agreement and all Home Computer Software
Distribution and License Agreements entered into in connection
herewith, each of WMS Group and GTIS agree to use reasonable efforts to
ensure that either of them may disclose the proprietary information of
the other (including, without limitation, the software source code and
tools relating to any Game), only to those persons within their
organizations who have a need to know such information in order to
perform its obligations under this Agreement and the Home Computer
Software Distribution and License Agreements and any such disclosure
shall be limited to the information which needs to be known. Further,
neither the WMS Group nor GTIS shall use any such proprietary
information for purposes other than the performance of its obligations
under this Agreement and the Home Computer Software Distribution and
License Agreements.
11. Paragraph 5 of the First Amendment shall be amended to provide that
Section 10.1 of the GTIS Master PC Agreement shall be amended to delete the
parenthetical language "(including its sublicenses and affiliates as one party)"
in the last sentence of such Section and by replacing the words "as long as that
party remains fully liable for its obligations
17
THE INFORMATION BELOW MARKED BY * HAS BEEN
OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT.
hereunder" at the end of the second sentence of such Section 10.1 with the
words "as long as both the assignee and the assignor remain fully liable for
assignor's obligations hereunder."
12. For purposes of the last paragraph of Paragraph 13 of the First
Amendment (i) distribution of a coin-operated video or pinball game by any
member of the Atari Group or a former affiliate of any member of the Atari Group
shall be deemed distribution by Licensor or its affiliates; and (ii) all
references to "Licensor or any of its affiliates" shall be amended to read,
"Licensor or any entity which at any time was or is an affiliate of any member
of the WMS Group or the Atari Group." The following shall be added immediately
preceding such last paragraph:
Anything in the foregoing paragraphs to the contrary
notwithstanding, where the Licensed Property has not been embodied in
a coin-operated video or pinball game, whether distributed by Licensor
or any entity which at any time was an afffliate of any member of the
WMS Group or the Atari Group, Licensee may elect to pay an alternative
royalty therefor. The alternative royalty shall equal the sum of the
royalty percentage payable in accordance with the table set forth in
Schedule B plus the Licensee's share of Third Party Fees and
Royalties, but in no event shall the alternative royalty exceed * % of
the actual Net Wholesale Sales Price of the Licensed Product;
provided, however, that anything in the foregoing paragraphs or this
paragraph to the contrary notwithstanding, under no circumstances
18
THE INFORMATION BELOW MARKED BY * HAS BEEN
OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT.
shall royalties, whether regular royalties, Substitute Royalties or
alternative royalties, be less than * of the Third Party Fees and
Royalties payable with respect to the sale of Licensed Products.
12.1. Section 1 of the Home Computer Software Distribution and
License Agreement shall be amended by adding at the end thereof, the following:
Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein, shall have the
meaning ascribed to such terms in the GTIS Master Agreement.
12.2. Section 3.2 of the Home Computer Software Distribution and
License Agreement shall be amended to add as the first clause thereof, the
following:
After the end of the Japan Territory Period, as defined in the
letter between WMS and GTIS dated March 27, 1996, captioned "Japan
Territory."
13. Schedule B to the Home Computer Software Distribution and License
Agreement shall be amended as follows:
13.1. Paragraph 2 under the heading "Adjustment to Royalties" shall
be amended by adding at the end thereof, the following which shall be deemed a
clarification of the practice currently being followed by Licensee and Licensor:
In cases where Licensed Products are bundled, net proceeds from
bundling shall be treated in the same manner as net proceeds from
sublicensees; provided, however, that if Licensee is also the
19
THE INFORMATION BELOW MARKED BY * HAS BEEN
OMITTED PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR
CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT.
manufacturer of products for bundling, the fee to Licensee shall
equal * % rather than * % of net proceeds.
13.2. A new Paragraph 4 shall be added after paragraph 3 under the
heading "Adjustment to Royalties" which shall read as follows:
4. For purposes of Paragraphs 1 and 2 above, the fees, royalties
or other participations referred to in clause 3 of Section
1.9 shall not be excluded in determining "Third Parties Fees and
Royalties." For avoidance of doubt, advances payable to developers
shall continue to be excluded.
13.3. The paragraph under the heading "Recoupment" shall be amended
to replace the word "paid" on the first line of such paragraph by the words
"applied or accrued" and to insert the words "applied or accrued by Licensee"
between the words "Recoupable Amounts" and "under" on line 6 of such paragraph.
13.4. A new paragraph shall be added at the end of the paragraph
under the heading "Recoupment" which shall read as follows:
"If the Atari Advance has not been fully recouped by GTIS on the
date on which the total of recoupable amounts under this Agreement and
other Home Computer Software Distribution and License Agreements
entered into pursuant to the GTIS Master Agreement equals the *
Dollars Option and Advance Fee and Guaranty paid by the Licensee under
the GTIS Master Agreement, then royalties otherwise payable
20
under this Agreement shall be recoupable against the Atari Advance in
the manner set forth in this Schedule B until the Atari Advance shall
be fully recouped. In determining whether the Atari Advance has been
fully recouped, amounts owed by GTIS but not yet reported, paid or
credited to the Licensor shall be deemed recouped by GTIS. If in
respect of any royalty payment period royalties are available for
recoupment of the Atari Advance under any one or more of the
distribution and license agreements entered into under the Atari
Agreements, the GTIS Master Agreement and the GTIS Master Option and
License Agreement (Home Video Games) dated March 31, 1995, (the "GTIS
Master Home Video Agreement"), the Atari Advance shall be recouped from
royalties in the following order: (i) royalties payable under
distribution and license agreements entered into under the Atari
Agreements; (ii) royalties payable under distribution and license
agreements entered into under the GTIS Master Agreement; and (iii)
royalties payable under distribution and license agreements entered
into under the GTIS Master Home Video Agreement.
14. WMS hereby confirms to GTIS that it is WMS' present intention that
it will maintain a separate Atari Group games design organization and that any
member of the design teams working for that organization will work solely on the
creation of Atari Games.
21
WMS further confirms that it will use all reasonable effort to maintain such
separate organization.
15. In the event of conflicts between the provisions of the GTIS
Master Agreement and the Home Computer Software Distribution and License
Agreement, the provisions of the GTIS Master Agreement shall prevail.
