LICENSEE may obtain from DVA a determination as to the applicability of any DVA Patent(s) to LICENSEE's products by use of the factory inspection provisions of Section 10.0 of this Agreement. In any event, DVA reserves the right to bring a patent infringement action against LICENSEE with respect to any DVA Patent(s) not listed in Appendix B. 3.2 No license is granted by DVA to LICENSEE in this Section 3.0, either expressly or by implication, estoppel, or otherwise: 3.2.1 other than under the Licensed Patent(s) listed in Appendix B; 3.2.2 with respect to any products other than Licensed Products; 3.2.3 to rent, lease, sell and/or Transfer any Manufacturing Apparatus; or 3.2.4 to rent, lease, sell and/or Transfer any Manufacturing Process or process step thereof. 3.3 The license granted herein shall include a sublicense to LICENSEE's Affiliates, identified in Appendix C, which are LICENSEE's Affiliates as of the effective date of this Agreement. LICENSEE shall pay and account to DVA for royalties hereunder with respect to the exercise by any Affiliate of LICENSEE of the sublicense granted to it hereunder, and if LICENSEE fails to make such payment or accounting, DVA reserves the right to seek directly from such Affiliate any PAGE 7 OF 23 royalties due and owing to DVA. Sublicenses will be granted to additional Affiliates of LICENSEE during the term of this Agreement upon receipt by DVA of written notices from LICENSEE setting forth the names and addresses of such additional Affiliates to be covered by this Agreement, provided each such notice is given before any sales of Licensed Products by the Affiliate named therein. Each Affiliate sublicensed under this Agreement shall be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement as if it were named herein in the place of LICENSEE. LICENSEE represents to DVA that it has the power to bind each such Affiliate to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and agrees to take whatever action is necessary to legally bind such Affiliates. The sublicense granted to an Affiliate shall terminate on the date such Affiliate ceases to be an Affiliate. 3.4 Except as set forth in Section 3.3, LICENSEE is expressly not granted the right to sublicense third parties under this Agreement. SECTION 4.0 RELEASE 4.1 Upon payment of the consideration set forth in Section 5.8, DVA irrevocably releases LICENSEE and its Affiliates, identified in Appendix C, which are LICENSEE's Affiliates as of the effective date of this Agreement, from any and all claims of infringement of the Licensed Patent(s), which claims have been made or which might be made at any time, with respect to any Licensed Products used, rented, leased, sold, or otherwise Transferred by or for LICENSEE or its sublicensed Affiliates before the effective date of this Agreement, to the extent such Licensed Products would have been licensed hereunder had they been manufactured, used, rented, leased, sold, or otherwise Transferred after the effective date of this Agreement. This release shall not apply to any Licensed Product on which a royalty accrues after the effective date of this Agreement. This release applies only to the Licensed Patent(s) and does not apply to any other DVA Patent(s). LICENSEE may remain liable for infringement of other DVA Patent(s). 4.2 LICENSEE expressly represents that its Affiliates identified in Appendix C include all of LICENSEE's Affiliates as of the effective date of this Agreement.

LICENSEE's election between the royalty of Section 5.4 and the royalty of Section 5.5 shall be made in writing to DVA for each type of Licensed Product on or before submission of the royalty report for the first accounting period for which royalty is to be paid for such type of Licensed Product. This election, once made, cannot be changed except as provided herein. For any given accounting period, LICENSEE shall pay the same royalty for each Licensed Product of the same type. If Section 5.4 is selected, and LICENSEE subsequently wishes to change its royalty election, LICENSEE may change the royalty election by notifying DVA in writing, on or before submission of the royalty report for the next accounting period for which such royalties are to be paid, of LICENSEE'S election to pay royalties pursuant to Section 5.5 herein, and of the Licensed Patent(s) to be included in Appendix B. Appendix B shall thereupon be amended to list the Licensed Patent(s) in accordance with LICENSEE's written notification, LICENSEE shall be liable for royalty payments pursuant to Section 5.4 up to the date of DVA's receipt of written notice of LICENSEE's change of royalty election. If LICENSEE is considering an election to pay royalties pursuant to Section 5.5, LICENSEE may request a factory inspection in accordance with Section 10.0. If Section 5.5 is selected, DVA reserves the right to bring a patent infringement action against LICENSEE with respect to any DVA Patent(s) not listed in Appendix B. The royalty election may be changed from Section 5.5 to Section 5.4 by written agreement of the parties. page 9 of 23 5.4 As a first option, LICENSEE shall pay to DVA each of the following royalties: 5.4.1 For each Licensed Product which is manufactured, used, rented, leased, sold and/or Transferred by or for LICENSEE and/or its Affiliates, LICENSEE shall pay to DVA a royalty for: 5.4.1.1 Digital Discs (except CD Single Discs): three cents (U.S. $0.03) per information bearing layer; and 5.4.1.2 CD Single Discs: two cents (U.S. $0.02) per information bearing layer. 5.4.1.3 With respect to each of the preceding Sections 5.4.1.1 and 5.4.1.2, LICENSEE shall have the option of paying a royalty of three percent (3.0%) of the Manufacturer's Net Selling Price. 5.5 As a second option, LICENSEE shall pay to DVA for each Licensed Product which is manufactured, used, rented, leased, sold and/or Transferred by or for LICENSEE and/or its Affiliates, a royalty equal to the sum total of the individual patent royalty rates of Licensed Patent(s) as a percentage of the Manufacturer's Net Selling Price of such Licensed Product, such individual rates being set forth in Appendix B. 5.6 No royalties shall be paid by LICENSEE for: 5.6.1 Licensed Products manufactured for LICENSEE by any other DVA licensee, so long as the other DVA licensee has fully paid and reported royalties to DVA on such Licensed Products and has identified LICENSEE as the purchaser of such Licensed Products in its royalty reports to DVA. If the other DVA licensee has paid a partial royalty to DVA, then LICENSEE shall receive a credit for that partial royalty. 5.6.2 Licensed Products manufactured by LICENSEE for any other DVA licensee, so long as the other licensee has fully paid and reported royalties to DVA on such Licensed Products, and LICENSEE has identified such other DVA licensee as the purchaser, and both LICENSEE and such other DVA licensee have both identified the other in their respective royalty reports due DVA reporting such transaction. Page 10 of 23 If the other DVA licensee has paid a partial royalty to DVA, then LICENSEE shall a receive credit for that partial royalty. 5.7 Lists of manufacturers that have a valid patent license agreement for Licensed Products with DVA are listed in Appendix D-1 and D-2. These lists will be updated annually. If LICENSEE purchases Licensed Products from any manufacturer listed in Appendix D-2 (licensed manufacturers not paying U.S. and Canadian royalty rates), and uses, rents, leases, sells and/or Transfers such Licensed Products in the United States of America or Canada or their territories or possessions, then LICENSEE shall: 5.7.1 pay to DVA a royalty of two United States cents (U.S. $0.02) per information bearing layer; or 5.7.2 submit the royalty report described in Section 6.6 to both DVA and each such licensed manufacturer. If LICENSEE chooses this option, DVA will demand, where appropriate, payment of the owed royalties as specified in Section 5.7.1 from the licensed manufacturer. If the licensed manufacturer does not pay these royalties within sixty (60) days of DVA's demand, LICENSEE must pay these royalties. The fact that DVA seeks payment from the licensed manufacturer in no way absolves LICENSEE of liability for these royalties. 5.8 LICENSEE agrees to pay DVA within sixty (60) days of the execution of this Agreement, the sum of Twenty Thousand United States Dollars ($20,000) as additional consideration for the release granted LICENSEE in Section 4.0. This sum is not refundable and is not creditable toward royalties set forth in this Section 5.0. LICENSEE and its Affiliates are jointly and severally liable for this payment, and if LICENSEE fails to make this payment, then DVA reserves the right to seek such payment from any or all of LICENSEE's Affiliates.

The inspection shall be made during reasonable business hours as soon as practically possible after payment of the inspection fee by LICENSEE. DVA and LICENSEE shall determine by mutual agreement the time, duration and other detailed manner and schedule of such inspection. 10.2.2 The employees at the manufacturing facility will be directed, to the best of LICENSEE's ability, to answer all questions asked by the DVA representatives and will allow the full and complete inspection, copying, videotaping and photographing of all documentation, machines, methods, and materials used in, at, or with a part of the manufacturing facility which LICENSEE has the right to disclose to others, as long as such questions and/or such part of the facility is directly related to the possible infringement. Any notes made by the DVA representatives and any documents, photographs, and videotapes shall be stamped "CONFIDENTIAL." 10.2.3 Any inspection of a Licensed Product manufacturing facility shall be on a confidential basis, and information learned as a result thereof shall be used for no purpose other than the technical discussions set forth herein. DVA shall safeguard the confidential information learned with standards at least as high as those that it uses to safeguard its own confidential information. Page 16 of 23 10.2.4 DVA shall not divulge any information obtained or learned as a result of such inspection to any other person or entity other than LICENSEE, including but not limited to other DVA licensees. This obligation shall not apply to information which is or becomes publicly available through no fault of DVA or is rightfully obtained without a bind of secrecy. 10.2.5 DVA shall use its best efforts to provide, within sixty (60) days from the inspection of the Licensed Product manufacturing facility, a report in writing to LICENSEE. The report shall include those DVA Patent(s) which DVA believes are infringed by such facility and shall be in the form of claim charts providing the basis and reasons for the possible infringement of the DVA Patent(s) in question. DVA shall use its best efforts to include in the report all DVA Patent(s) which DVA believes are infringed by such facility. It is understood and agreed by LICENSEE that the exclusion of one or more DVA Patents neither stops DVA from asserting a claim of infringement against LICENSEE under such DVA Patent(s), nor affects the rights of DVA in any way with respect to such DVA Patent(s). It is understood and agreed by LICENSEE that this report and these claim charts are for settlement purposes only and cannot and will not be used for any other purpose. LICENSEE agrees to keep this report and these claim charts confidential and not to disclose them to any other party. 10.3 LICENSEE can elect this inspection option once per calendar year. Any inspection of a Licensed Product manufacturing facility after the first inspection of such manufacturing facility shall be performed for a fee to be determined and agreed upon between DVA and LICENSEE. Section 11.0 TERM OF AGREEMENT; TERMINATION 11.1 Subject to Section 11.5 below, the term of this Agreement shall be from the effective date hereof until the expiration of the last to expire of the Licensed Patent(s), unless previously terminated as hereinafter provided. 11.2 LICENSEE may terminate the license granted herein, but only in its entirety, at any time by giving notice in writing to DVA. Such termination shall be effective on the date such notice is received by DVA. Page 17 of 23 11.3 DVA shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in the event: 11.3.1 LICENSEE fails to make any payment when due under this Agreement and such payment is not made within sixty (60) days of written notice from DVA; or 11.3.2 LICENSEE defaults under any term of this Agreement, other than a default involving the payment of money, which default is not cured within thirty (30) days of written notice from DVA; or 11.3.3 LICENSEE becomes insolvent or admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they mature or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or 11.3.4 LICENSEE files a petition under any foreign or U.S. bankruptcy law. The rights and remedies set forth in this section are not exclusive and are in addition to any other rights and remedies available to DVA under this Agreement or at law or equity. 11.4 In the event this Agreement or the license granted hereunder shall be terminated pursuant to this Section 11.0 or assigned pursuant to Section 8.0, the corresponding sublicenses granted to Affiliates of LICENSEE pursuant to Section 3.3 shall likewise terminate, but no notices need be given by DVA to such Affiliates. 11.5 Any expiration or termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.0, or any termination of a sublicense pursuant to Section 3.3, shall not relieve LICENSEE of any obligation or liability accrued hereunder prior to such termination (including, without limitation, the obligations set forth in Sections 5.0, 6.0 and 7.0), or rescind or give rise to any right to rescind anything done by LICENSEE or any payments made or other consideration given to DVA hereunder prior to the time such termination becomes effective, and such termination shall not affect in any manner any rights of DVA arising under this Agreement prior to such termination.
