RIGHT OF TERMINATION BY NIKE. (a) NIKE shall have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice to UNIVERSITY if: (1) Any Flagship Program is placed on NCAA probation resulting in a ban on post- season competition for longer than one playing season or any ban on television appearances, or UNIVERSITY ceases for any reason to field a Division I team in any of the Flagship Programs, or UNIVERSITY exercises its termination right under Paragraph 13(a) above; (2) Members of any Team fail to wear or use NIKE Products during practices, games, exhibitions, clinics, sports camps or other occasions during which Team members wear or use Products, or wear NIKE Products altered, spatted or taped, in violation of the provisions of the Sponsorship Agreement between the parties hereto (the "Sponsorship Agreement"); provided, however, that NIKE shall have first provided written notice to UNIVERSITY of any such violation and such violations shall then recur during the same Contract Year; (3) UNIVERSITY, the NCAA, the Conference or any assignee thereof (including any licensing agent or broadcast partner of the foregoing) enacts, adopts or accedes to any regulation, restriction, prohibition or practice that materially deprives NIKE of the promotional benefits and/or product/brand exposure contemplated by this Agreement including, but not limited to, (i) any material diminution of NIKE's logo placement rights (in terms of size, location placement, color prominence and/or number of placements) on Product or Licensed Product, including any total ban on the placement of camera-visible logo identification on Authentic Competition Apparel, (ii) "air brushing" NIKE identification from still photography or footage, or (iii) use of L-VIS technology or other "virtual signage" or electronic/computer imaging technology that alters, substitutes or replaces NIKE's stadium/arena signage appearing in UNIVERSITY's home venues pursuant to this Agreement or the Sponsorship Agreement (including NIKE logo identification that appears on uniforms) with other commercial identification that is seen by home television viewers;

(4) UNIVERSITY breaches any representation or agreement under Paragraph 24 below or any other material term of this Agreement, which breach UNIVERSITY fails to cure, if curable, within thirty (30) days of NIKE's delivery of written notice to UNIVERSITY of any such breach; or (5) The Sponsorship Agreement is terminated, or the Retail License is terminated or the weighted average royalty rate under the Retail License is increased above ten percent (10). (b) In the event of termination under this Paragraph 14 or Paragraph 13, UNIVERSITY shall not be entitled to any further compensation under this Agreement, except any unpaid Base Compensation and Performance Bonuses earned prior to the effective date of termination, pro-rated (in the case of Base Compensation) over the entire Contract Year and calculated to the effective date of termination, or royalties due, or to be paid, under the Retail License. 15. NIKE POST-TERMINATION RIGHTS. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, NIKE shall have the right to: (a) For a period of ninety (90) days, run any non-cancelable media involving the UNIVERSITY Trademarks or Designations, and exhaust all advertising and promotional materials that were produced and appropriately approved by UNIVERSITY pursuant to this Agreement prior to the effective date of expiration or termination; (b) For a period of ninety (90) days, complete and dispose of any Licensed Products which are on-hand or in-process and fulfill orders received prior to the effective date of expiration or termination, provided royalties thereon are paid and reported in accordance with the Retail License; and (c) Use, in perpetuity, Game Photos or Game Footage solely and exclusively for in- house, non-consumer exhibition for historical, educational or commemorative purposes. 16. RIGHT OF REDUCTION, SET-OFF. (a) UNIVERSITY acknowledges that a principal component of consideration due NIKE includes: (i) the wide-spread national television and other media exposure that the Flagship Programs annually receive, and (ii) the accompanying prominent brand exposure NIKE receives through the placement of the NIKE logo, as it currently appears (in terms of size, location placement, color prominence and/or number of placements), on Authentic Competition Apparel. Accordingly, if in any Contract Year a Flagship Program is banned from television appearances or if, for any reason, NIKE's logo placement rights on Products are diminished (in terms of size, location placement, color prominence and/or number of placements), in lieu of NIKE's exercise of its termination right under Paragraph 14 above, then for such Contract Year NIKE shall have the right to reduce UNIVERSITY's scheduled Base Compensation in accordance with the following: PROGRAM % REDUCTION Football 75% Basketball (M) 75% Basketball (W) 50%

NIKE/ASU Trademark 11

If NIKE logo placement rights are diminished in a manner other than as enumerated above, NIKE shall have the right to in good faith equitably reduce the scheduled Base Compensation to be paid UNIVERSITY prospectively taking into account the nature and extent of the diminution of rights. (b) UNIVERSITY acknowledges that (i) a principal component of consideration due NIKE includes the wide-spread national television and other media exposure that the NIKE brand receives through the prominent visibility of the NIKE logos that appear on the side (and other locations) of the athletic footwear produced by NIKE, (ii) such continued brand exposure is of the essence of this Agreement , and (iii) a pattern or practice of "spatting" or other unauthorized taping of shoes in any manner so as to cover any portion of the NIKE logo is inconsistent with this Agreement and the expected benefits to be derived from it by NIKE and is a material breach of this Agreement. Accordingly, if the coaching staff shall permit such spatting or taping of NIKE footwear, in lieu of NIKE's exercise of its termination rights under Paragraph 14 above, NIKE shall have the right (in its sole discretion) to reduce UNIVERSITY's annual scheduled Base Compensation (for the contract year in which the breach occurs) in accordance with the reduction scale set forth below . For purposes of this Agreement, a "pattern of spatting" shall deem to exist if during any game three (3) or more "Skill Position" players (i.e., receivers, offensive and defensive backs, and quarterbacks) appear on-field with spatted or taped NIKE footwear; or (ii) any starter at a Skill Position shall appear on-field with spatted or taped NIKE footwear on two (2) or more occasions in any season after NIKE has provided UNIVERSITY with written notice of such unauthorized spatting. % REDUCTION AMOUNT 1St Occurrence 10% of total annual Base Com pensation 2" Occurrence 15% of total annual Base Com pensation 3' Occurrence 25% of total annual Base Compensation Successive reductions shall be cumulative (i.e., three (3) occurrences would result in annual Base Compensation being reduced by a total of 50%). (c) NIKE shall have the right to set-off any amounts owed by UNIVERSITY to NIKE pursuant to this Agreement, or otherwise, against any amounts owed by NIKE to UNIVERSITY. 17. INDEMNIFICATION. (a) NIKE shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless UNIVERSITY , its agents, trustees, directors, officers, employees and agents , and all members of the Teams (collectively, "UNIVERSITY Parties ") from and against all suits, actions , claims, judgments , damages, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees , (collectively, "Claims") incurred by any UNIVERSITY Parties arising out of or relating to: (i) NIKE's breach of any material term of this Agreement; or (ii) the acts or omissions of NIKE, or those of its employees and/or agents, provided NIKE is given prompt written notice of and shall have the option to undertake and conduct the defense of any such Claim subject to the approval of the Arizona Attorney General if applicable . In any instance to which the foregoing indemnities pertain , UNIVERSITY Parties shall cooperate fully with and assist NIKE in connection with any such defense subject to limitations in applicable law, and no UNIVERSITY Party shall enter into a settlement of such Claim, unless UNIVERSITY waives its right of indemnification with respect to such UNIVERSITY Party
