CONTRACT BETWEEN DUX SOFTWARE AND DON HOPKINS Here is the contract between DUX and me, which I will be glad to send you a copy of if you like. The terms of the contract were successfully met, and there were no problems with it. 18 February 1992 To: Donald Hopkins, SimCity Project Engineer From: Bob Adams, President DUX Software Subject: Development Agreement, Assignment of Rights, Payment and Royalties Both parties agree to the following: 1. Don Hopkins is recognized as the developer for SimCity UNIX-HyperNeWS version. 2. Don has worked on the project as "Work For Hire" and Don assigns all rights to DUX and MAXIS and recognizes that MAXIS and DUX possess full copyright status for the SimCity code, the user interface and all notes and documentation. All intellectual property rights are acknowledged for Don to be the property of MAXIS and DUX. 3. DUX acknowledges that a balance due exists which will be paid to Don through royalties he will receive through the sale of SimCity over time. The formula used to compute his royalty payment is as follows: 5% of all revenues paid to DUX for the sale of SimCity until the balance of contract is paid. 2.5% of all revenues paid to DUX from the sale of SimCity for ongoing support of the source code and HyperNeWS. 4. If Don wishes to continue to support te product after it is completed, the same formula will apply in addition to his logging programming time at $25. per hour for all new work. Bug fixes will constitute support of already paid for work and will be covered by royalty payments. 5. Don agrees to support the product to the best of his ability while away in Europe via Internet, phone or fax. 6. Don agrees to complete SimCity in a reasonable time frame while away and help DUX complete documentation by the creation of the text portion of the documentation and will make recommendations as to appropriate screen captures and graphics. 7. Any major improvements to the current version beyond the basic game and current interface will be approved by a product planning group of which Don is a member. 8. Don agrees to move SimCity to the latest version of HyperNeWS upon is arrival at Turing. Don Hopkins (signed) Don Hopkins Feb 18 92 DUX Software (signed) Robert Adams 2/18/92
