entities listed on Exhibit C attached hereto, provided that any such
sublicense contains the same terms and protections included in this
Agreement.  Yahoo may sublicense the rights provided under this Agreement to
entities not listed in Exhibit C only upon Netscape's prior written consent
which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

     2.2   RESERVATION OF RIGHTS.  Netscape hereby reserves any and all
rights not expressly and explicitly granted in this Agreement, including

withholding.

promotional materials, graphics, or advertisements client or server software

Mark is used pursuant to Section 2.1.

secrets, Netscape and Yahoo shall confer and mutually agree on a proper
course of action.

<PAGE>

           8.2  ENTIRE AGREEMENT.  This Agreement, including Exhibit A and
Exhibit B, constitutes the entire Agreement and understanding between the
parties and integrates all prior discussions between them related to its
subject matter.  No modification of any of the terms of this Agreement shall
be valid unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of each
party.

such Change in Control shall not occur with respect to a prospective assignee

                       NETSCAPE COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION

                           TRADEMARK USAGE GUIDELINES

GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

You must comply with the following guidelines in order to avoid any breach of
the terms and conditions under which you have been authorized or licensed to
use Netscape's logos and trademarks:

-    All logos and trademarks under which Netscape markets and/or promotes its
     products and services are, and shall remain, the exclusive property of
     Netscape Communications Corporation.

-    Advertising for Netscape, its products, its services or its programs must
     not be in violation of any United States federal or state laws, municipal
     ordinances or administrative agency regulations, or the laws, rules and
     regulations of any other country.

-    Advertising for Netscape, its products, its services or its programs must
     not be misleading in price, features or specifications.

Netscape may modify these guidelines from time to time and you will be bound to
comply with the material contained in the updated guidelines, provided Netscape
has provided you with the updated guidelines sufficiently in advance to permit
you to comply with the requirements.

TRADEMARK USAGE GUIDELINES

All Netscape trademarks must be used as adjectives (product or service name)
modifying nouns (generic term such as software or program).  Trademarks must
not be used as nouns or verbs.  Trademarks must never appear in plural or
possessive form.  In addition, the full trademark (as shown in the list
below) must be used, not an abbreviated version of the name.

     EXAMPLES:

     INCORRECT
     ---------

     -    COMMUNICATOR'S FEATURES INCLUDE OPEN EMAIL, GROUPWARE, EDITING,
          CALENDARING, AND BROWSING.
     -    THE ENTERPRISE SERVER IS DISTRIBUTED BY NETSCAPE COMMUNICATIONS
          CORPORATION.
     -    NETSCAPE NAVIGATORS CAN BE DEPLOYED THROUGHOUT AN ENTERPRISE.

     CORRECT
     -------

     -    NETSCAPE-Registered Trademark- COMMUNICATOR CLIENT SOFTWARE PROVIDES
          OPEN EMAIL, GROUPWARE, EDITING, CALENDARING, AND BROWSING FUNCTIONS.
<PAGE>

     -    NETSCAPE-Registered Trademark- ENTERPRISE SERVER SOFTWARE IS
          DISTRIBUTED BY NETSCAPE COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION.

     -    NETSCAPE NAVIGATOR-Registered Trademark- SOFTWARE CAN BE DEPLOYED
          THROUGHOUT AN ENTERPRISE.

After the first use of a trademark as an adjective followed by a noun, and if
needed for ease of writing, you may leave out the generic noun in some of the
subsequent uses where it is clearly understood to be implied from the
context, so long as the trademark is not pluralized or made possessive and
the trademark is followed by the generic noun at least once per page.

You may not use our trademarks, whether design or words marks, in the
following ways:

     -    In a non-Netscape product name or publication title
     -    In, as, or as part of, your own trademarks
     -    To identify products or services that are not ours
     -    In connection with activities, products, or services outside the
          scope of your license from Netscape
     -    In a manner likely to cause confusion
     -    In a manner that implies inaccurately that we sponsor or endorse
          your activities, products, and services
     -    In a manner disparaging of Netscape

All materials must include a trademark attribution statement for Netscape
products and services.  The attribution statement that we request you use is:
NETSCAPE AND NETSCAPE NAVIGATOR ARE REGISTERED TRADEMARKS OF NETSCAPE
COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION IN THE UNITED STATES AND OTHER COUNTRIES. 
NETSCAPE'S LOGOS AND NETSCAPE PRODUCT AND SERVICE NAMES ARE ALSO TRADEMARKS
OF NETSCAPE COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION, WHICH MAY BE REGISTERED IN OTHER
COUNTRIES.  As additional trademarks are registered by the US Patent and
Trademark Office, the specific wording of the attribution statement will
change.  Please check the trademark information available on our home page
frequently for updates.
