Company will not pay any royalties to University for this merchandise, so long as it is distributed in connection with Company Beverages, free of charge or sold at a subsidized price (taking into account Company's overhead costs associated with the relevant promotion).

(2)

University's reasonable determination that Company's proposed promotional activity or use of University Marks will reflect negatively on University.

Steps to Stop Ambush Marketing. If any third party tries without Company's consent to associate Competitive Products with University, the Campus or the University Marks - or tries to suggest, by implication or otherwise, that Competitive Products are so associated -- University will take reasonable steps to stop this "ambush marketing" and protect Company's exclusive association. These steps may include the following, as circumstances warrant: (A)

complaining in writing to the violating party and to local media outlets;

(C)

If University detennines that a subcontractor's perfonnance is unacceptable, Company will take all necessary actions to cure such unacceptable performance including tennination. University will not be obligated to pursue a remedy through a subcontractor. In the event of such termination, Company has the right

12

to continue using the then current subcontractor until a replacement can be agreed upon. So long as Company is exercising its reasonable best efforts to identify a suitable mutually acceptable subcontractor, University will not assert that Company is in breach of this Agreement. (D)

If Company terminates a subcontractor, University will exercise its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with Company's effort to defend itself from any claim or suit that such terminated subcontractor may elect to assert on the basis, at least in part, that University has noticed Company that it deems such subcontractor's performance unacceptable.
