Unless terminated earlier, the Agreement shall remain in effect from April 13, 2007 until 270 days after the commercial release by Eidos of the last Title covered by the Agreement.  


Pursuant to the Agreement, Eidos agrees to purchase a guaranteed number of units of the Titles (the “Guarantee”), which Guarantee may be met using any combination of unit quantities of the Titles, subject to the minimum order requirements of the platform owners/manufacturers.

Under the Agreement, the Company is responsible for creating, developing, localizing, testing, submitting, and manufacturing the Titles and their associated documentation. Eidos is responsible for selling and marketing the Titles, including supporting each Title with a marketing program. Eidos is also responsible for providing end user customer support for the Titles.
