Our license with the Licensor is a license for the rights to use three software programs (the “Programs”): RG Switch Payment (designed to transfer payments to providers of services), RG Processing (designed processing and counting of payments) and RG Kiosk (designed for performance of payments through payment collection equipment functioning in the self-service kiosks) to be used in Mexico.

 

Under this agreement the Licensor is obligated to provide the Company with rights to use software updates developed by the Licensor. The ten-year term commences on the date of full payment of the localization contract. The Licensor retains exclusive rights to any intellectual property, including any addition, alteration, program updating, derivative or composed creation, obtained in the process of usage of the programs. The payment for the rights granted under the license is a total of $1,000, payable in annual payments of $100 per year over ten years and is in addition to the payments that we make under the Localization Agreement. The agreement provides, among other things, that we will pay the fee, ensure confidentiality of commercial and technical information received when performing the agreement and inform the Licensor of any changes in its structure. The Licensor has a right to terminate the agreement if we breach the terms of the agreement or do not properly perform or if we do not cure any breach or nonperformance within 30 days of receipt of notice of termination.
