AMENDMENT TO COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT

This Amendment to Cooperative Agreement (the "Amendment") is entered into by and between The University of Texas at Austin, a state agency and institution of higher education organized under the laws of the State of Texas, for and on behalf of the University Libraries ("University") and Google Inc. ("Google"). This Amendment is effective as of June 8, 2009 (the "Amendment Effective Date"), except as set forth herein.

Background

A. University and Google entered into a Cooperative Agreement dated January 8, 2007 (the "Agreement"), where Google is digitally scanning certain content from the. University library collection and making such digitally scanned content available to University for certain uses.

B. Google has entered into a settlement agreement dated October 28, 2008 (the "Settlement Agreement") in a class action lawsuit filed against Google to conclude finally and definitively all claims brought in that lawsuit.

C. The terms of the Settlement Agreement affect the rights and obligations of Google under the Agreement, and this Amendment reflects such changes to Google's rights and obligations.

D. University and Google now desire in accordance with Section 12.11 of the Agreement to: (i) amend the Agreement through this Amendment with respect to certain terms, but in all other respects the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect; and (Ii) add additional terms to the Agreement as set forth below.

Terms

1. Unless otherwise expressly stated herein, the capitalized terms in this Amendment shall have the meanings set forth in Attachment A hereto and the Agreement.

2. The term "Effective Date" in the preamble and throughout the Agreement shall be replaced with "Original Effective Date."

3. A Section 1.20 shall be added to the Agreement and shall read as follows: "1.20 'Digital ~' means a set of electronic files, including the image files of the individual pages of the Digitized Selected Content along with text (currently generated from optical character recognition technology "OCR"), coordinate information for the text, copyright notice, year, and place of publication for the text (if available through Google's processes), information about the ordering of pages along with page-level Metadata such as page number and other similar information, regardless of the means or technology used to prepare such copy, whether now known or hereafter developed, and any digital copy of such set of electronic files. A Digital Copy of a work may be constructed by Google from one or more physical works into a composite version of the work, which may include alternative page images from different copies of the work that Google obtains from sources other than University."

4. Article 3, "Costs," shall be deleted and replaced with the following:

"3. Costs.

From the Amendment Effective Date, University and Google will jointly develop a budget for each yearly Project Plan, pursuant to which University will identify the costs (a) related to locating, pulling and moving the Selected Content to and from the designated location at the University facility so that Google can collect it as well as re-shelving the Selected Content when the Digitization is complete, (b) those related to University employees and agents whose participation is contemplated by this Agreement and (c) barcoding and associated data entry to barcode the Selected Content. Such budget will be effective only after set forth in an attachment to this Agreement signed by both Parties. Google shall fund each Project up to the amounts agreed to by the Parties at the commencement of each Project year, in August or as soon thereafter as the budget is agreed upon by the Parties. Funds provided by Google to University pursuant to this Section 3 may used by University only in accordance with the budget. Funds unused at the end of the Project year shall be returned to Google by University, or at Google's option applied to the budget for the next Project year. Upon Google's request, University shall provide documentation evidencing University's use of the funds is in accordance with the budget."

5. The following sentences shall be added to the end of Section 4.1, "Copyright Status": "Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Google shall have no obligation to include Digital Copies of in-copyright works Digitized from the Available Content in the University Digital Copy provided to University."

6. Section 4.10, "Distribution of the University Digital Copy" shall be deleted and replaced with the following: "4.10 Distribution of the University Digital Copy. This Section shall apply to those portions of the University Digital Copy that are in the public domain.

(a) Notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in this Agreement, University shall have the right to provide any portion of the University Digital Copy that is in the public domain to (i) academic research libraries and (ii) when requested by University and agreed upon in writing by Google, other not-for-profit entities that are not providing search or hosting services substantially similar to those provided by Google, including but not limited to those services substantially similar to GBS, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld (the entities in clauses (i) and (ii) being referred to as "Additional Institutions"), in each case for non commercial (unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by Google) research, scholarly, or academic purposes. Any Additional Institution must enter into a written agreement with Google prior to University providing any portion of the University Digital Copy that is in the public domain to such Additional Institution, the form of which Google will provide to University, that prohibits such Additional Institution from redistributing such portions of the University Digital Copy to other entities (beyond providing or making content available to users for educational or research purposes), and requiring such Additional Institution (A) to use reasonable efforts to prevent third parties from bulk downloading substantial portions of such works, and (B) to implement technological measures (e.g., through use of the robots.txt protocol) to restrict automated access to any part of such entity's website where substantial portions of such public domain works are available. University will have the right to approve those sections of the form that materially differ from the rights granted to University with respect to the use of such portions of the University Digital Copy that are in the public domain in the Agreement.

(b) Beginning on the date fifteen (15) years following the date that a digital copy of a public domain work contained in the University Digital Copy has been provided by Google to University, notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in this Agreement, University shall have the right, in its sole discretion and without Google's consent, to provide all or any portion of such digital copy of such public domain work to any entity so long as (i) such entity is not providing search or hosting services that are substantially similar to those provided by Google, including but not limited to those services substantially similar to GBS (unless Google provides prior written approval), and (ii) the receiving entity enters into a written agreement with Google prior to University providing any portion of such digital copy of such public domain work to such receiving entity, the form of which Google will provide to University, prohibiting such entity from redistributing such digital copy of such public domain work to other entities (beyond providing or making content available to users for educational or research purposes), and requiring such entity (A) to use reasonable efforts to prevent third parties from bulk downloading substantial portions of such work, and (B) to implement technological measures (e.g., through use of the robots.txt protocol) to restrict automated access to any part of such entity's website where substantial portions of such digital copy of such public domain work are available. University will have the right to approve those sections of the form that materially differ from the rights granted to University with respect to the use of such portions of the University Digital Copy in the Agreement. Beginning on the date fifteen (15) years following the date that a digital copy of a public domain work contained in the University Digital Copy has been provided by Google to University, all restrictions and requirements set forth in the Agreement regarding University's use of that digital copy of such public domain work will terminate, except that the restrictions on distribution of those digital copies to other entities set forth in the preceding sentence will continue in effect, and that University also will be required to comply with the measures described in clauses (A) and (B) of that sentence.

(c) Beginning on the Amendment Effective Date, if Google fails to offer for any contiguous twelve (12) month period a free service to end users with respect to any digital copy of any public domain work in the University Digital Copy that enables end users to search, view and print the full text of that public domain work (unless such digital copy of such public domain work is excluded by Google for quality, technical, or legal reasons), then all restrictions and requirements set forth in this Agreement regarding use or distribution of the digital copy of that public domain work by University or by any recipient entity will terminate immediately, provided University has provided written notice to Google of such failure and Google has not remedied such failure within thirty (30) days following Google's receipt of such notice.

(d) All restrictions and requirements set forth in the Agreement regarding use or distribution (whether by University or by any recipient entity) (including those set forth in this Section 4.10) of the digital copies of public domain works contained in the University Digital Copy shall terminate on January 1, 2050.

(e) For clarity, University and Google acknowledge that none of the restrictions or requirements set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) above was created for the purpose of hindering University or any recipient entity from providing public user access to the digital copies of public domain works contained in the University Digital Copy. Rather, the purpose of the continuing restrictions and requirements above is to allow Google to protect the benefit of Google's investment in light of the costs and resources related to Digitizing the Selected Content."

7. A Section 4.11 shall be added to the Agreement and shall read as follows: "4.11 Provision of Image Coordinates. Google shall provide University with Optical Character Recognition (OCR) image coordinates for each work contained in the University Digital Copy. Image coordinates for works contained in the University Digital Copy shall be subject to the rights and restrictions that are applicable to such works."

8. A Section 4.12 shall be added to the Agreement and shall read as follows: "4.12 Technological Updates and Replacements. Effective upon the Effective Date, for each work contained in the University Digital Copy that is in the public domain, Google will provide University access to download a copy of the file for each such Digitized work each time Google significantly improves a file for that work. In addition, Google will provide University access to download a copy of the file for each such Digitized work each time a file for that work is improved by (i) any Fully Participating Library (as that term is defined in the Settlement Agreement) or Cooperating Library (as that term is defined in the Settlement Agreement) (other than University) provided that such library makes the improved file available to Google or (Ii) any third party to the extent Google is permitted under a contract with such third party and provided that such third party makes the improved file available to Google. If University elects to download a copy of the improved file for any such Digitized work, University may download only the most current version of such file. Google will make improved versions of the files available to University reasonably promptly after they are created by Google or created by another party and provided to Google pursuant to this Section. Google will also provide University access to download a copy of the file for any such Digitized work previously provided to University that has become lost, damaged, or destroyed; provided that in such event, University will be responsible for any costs to gain access to such copy and any such copy shall only be available for a reasonable period of time sufficient for University to obtain a copy."

9. A Section 4.13 shall be added to the Agreement and shall read as follows: "4.13 Institutional Subscription Discount. Google shall provide to University a subsidy on the full Institutional Subscription product offered to Higher Education Institufions (when such product is made generally available by Google) equal to one free FTE per fifty (50) in-copyright works from the Selected Content Digitized by Google or provided by University to Google in digital form under this Agreement that are included in the Institutional Subscription. For purposes of this Agreement, FTE shall mean full-time equivalent University students."

10. Term and Termination. The following Sections of this Amendment survive expiration or termination of the Agreement: 6 and 10.

11. Except as amended by this Amendment, all other terms of the Agreement remain in full force and effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been executed by persons duly authorized.

University of Wisconsin - Madison

The combined library collections of the University of Wisconsin- Madison Libraries and the Wisconsin Historical Society Library comprise one of the largest collections of documents and historical materials in the United States. Through this landmark partnership with Google, Wisconsin is taking a leading role in preserving public domain works for future generations and making the Library's resources widely available for education and research. This effort truly exemplifies the vision of The Wisconsin Idea – the notion that the boundaries of the university are limitless. The Wisconsin libraries have been following in this tradition. The Google digitization efforts will enable the libraries to expand access to public domain materials that have heretofore only been accessible in the libraries. Much of this material is rare and one-of-a-kind, providing a rich, open source of information for educational, research and general public use.
–Edward Van Gemert, Interim Director, UW-Madison Libraries

University of Michigan

The project with Google is core to our mission as a great public university to advance knowledge – on campus and beyond. By joining this partnership that makes our library holdings searchable through Google, UM serves as an agent in an initiative that radically increases the availability of information to the public. The University of Michigan embraces this project as a means to make information available as broadly and conveniently as possible. Moreover, the UM Library embarked on this ground-breaking partnership for a number of very compelling reasons:

• We believe that, beyond providing basic access to library collections, this activity is critically transformative, enabling the University Library to build on and reconceive vital library services for the new millennium.
• This work will create new ways for users to search and access library content, opening up our collections to our own users and to users throughout the world.
• Although we have engaged in large-scale, preservation-based conversion of materials in the Library's collection for several years, and have been a leader in digital preservation efforts among research libraries, we know that only through partnerships of this sort can conversion of this scale be achieved. Our program is strong, and we have been able to digitize approximately 5,000 volumes/year; nevertheless, at this rate, it would take us more than a thousand years to digitize our entire collection.

–John P. Wilkin, Associate University Librarian

COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT

This COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is entered into by and between Google Inc., a Delaware corporation with offices at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, California 94043 ("Google"), and the Regents of the University of Michigan/University Library, Ann Arbor Campus, with its principal offices at 818 Hatcher South, Ann Arbor, MI 48109-1205 ("U of M"), and is effective on the date of the execution of this Agreement (the "Effective Date").

3. Google and the U of M share a mutual interest in making information available to the public. The Parties believe that working collaboratively will create mutually beneficial knowledge about standards and automated methods for organizing and indexing digitized works and to refine standard requirements for repositories of digital content.

4. Accordingly, the Parties desire to enter a nonexclusive agreement whereby Google will digitize works from the U of M collection to include them in Google's search services, and to make them available to the University of Michigan for preservation, archival or other purposes of its choosing (e.g., inclusion in Michigan's search services).

Terms

2. RESPONSIBILITIES

2.1 Identifying Content to be Digitized. The parties shall cooperate to identify Available Content to be Digitized. Upon agreeing to such Selected Content, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith and with diligence to develop a timetable for completing the Project Plan for the Selected Content. The Parties shall then memorialize the Project Plan in a Project Form.

2.2 Collecting the Selected Content. Upon commencement of a Project, U of M shall be responsible for performing any conservation efforts that U of M determines are required for the associated Selected Content. On a rolling basis, as this conservation effort is completed, U of M shall provide the conserved Selected Content to Google for Digitizing. If agreed upon by the parties in a particular Project Plan, this collection function may instead be assigned to Google.

2.3 Locating the Digitization Operation. For each Project, U of M shall attempt in good faith to provide Google with adequate physical space to Digitize the Selected Content. If U of M is unable to provide such space, U of M shall cooperate with Google to identify and obtain space that Google can use at reasonable rates. The location of any such physical spaces shall be mutually agreed upon by the parties.

2.3.1 Transporting and Storing the Selected Content. On a Project-specific and material-specific basis, U of M may authorize Google to remove some or all of the Selected Content from U of M premises to perform digitization in facilities controlled by Google. All risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the materials will lie with Google from the time Google accepts possession of the materials until such time as they are returned to U of M on U of M premises. Google will carry reasonably sufficient insurance against the risk of loss, damage or destruction of materials entrusted to Google's custody. In general, for all materials, Google will provide a transport method and temporary storage area that is reasonably clean, dry, cool, free from insects and other pests, protected from fire, and secure against theft and vandalism. Because the value of the materials and the environmental conditions necessary for transporting them and maintaining them in good condition will vary based on the particular materials involved, U of M will inform Google of the requirements for transport and storage of particular materials on a Project-specific basis. For insurance purposes, U of M (relying on guidelines from its Risk Management office) will provide Google with a good faith estimate of the value of any materials approved for removal from U of M premises, and will provide Google with an itemized list of any such materials.

2.3.2 On-Site (Le., not transported) Conversion of Selected Content. The terms in 2.3.1 regarding insurance, accessibility to print materials for U of M users, and precautions taken to ensure protection of the materials shall also apply to materials digitized on-site in the Buhr storage facility.

2.4 Digitizing the Selected Content. Google will be responsible for Digitizing the Selected Content. Subject to handling constraints or procedures specified in the Project Plan, Google shall at its sole discretion determine how best to Digitize the Selected Content, so long as the resulting digital files meet benchmarking guidelines agreed to by Google and U of M, and the U of M Digital Copy can be provided to U of M in a format agreed to by Google and U of M. U of M will engage in ongoing review (through sampling) of the resulting digital files, and shall inform Google of files that do not meet benchmarking guidelines or do not comply with the agreed-upon format. Should U of M encounter a persistent failure by Google to meet these guidelines or supply the agreed-upon format, U of M may stop new work until this failure can be rectified. Any restrictions on Google's discretion shall be specified on a project-by-project basis via the corresponding Project Form(s) or by amendment to this Agreement.

2.5 U of M Digital Copy. Google agrees to provide to U of M a copy of all Digitized Selected Content that has been "Successfully Processed" within thirty (30) days after the Selected Content is Digitized, or in a timeframe mutually agreed by the Parties. Digitized Selected Content is "Successfully Processed" when Google determines it has satisfactorily gone through all stages of Google's digitization, post processing and quality assurance procedures (not to exceed thirty days for material received by Google, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties). Within thirty (30) days after the Selected Content is Digitized, or in a timeframe mutually agreed by the Parties, Google shall provide the U of M Digital Copy to the U of M. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, the U of M Digital Copy will consist of a set of image and OCR files and associated information indicating at a minimum (1) bibliographic information consisting of the title and author of each Digitized work, (2) which image files correspond to that Digitized work, and (3) the logical order of those image files. Google shall provide the U of M Digital Copy via a network connection, or in any other manner mutually agreed upon by the Parties.

2.5.1 Google may delay transferring Digitized Selected Content to U of M if it decides not to use that content due to a dispute with a third-party. In this case, Google must inform U of M, in writing, of the details of the dispute and the specific content to be delayed. Google may delay transfer of this content until such time as Google makes any use (including indexing) of that Digitized content (or the same content acquired from another source, if that Digitized content is in the public domain or out-ofprint) beyond storage in a dark archive.

2.5.2 Within 3 years of the time Google has transferred Digitized Selected Content to U of M, if Google decides not to use that content due to a dispute with a third-party, U of M will destroy that content (so long as it is in print and protected by copyright) from the U of M Digital Copy. In this case, Google must inform U of M in writing of the details of the dispute and the specific content to be destroyed. If, at any time, Google subsequently makes any use (including indexing) of that Digitized content (or the same content acquired from another source, if that Digitized content is in the public domain or out-of-print) beyond storage in a dark archive, Google will retransfer that Digitized Content to U of M.

2.6 Returning the Selected Content. Once completed with the Digitizing process, Google will be responsible for returning the Selected Content to the source from which Google obtained it and in the like manner in which it was collected, within three (3) weeks unless otherwise specified in the Project Form or otherwise agreed upon by the parties. If Google reasonably determines that it will require longer to Digitize some or all of the Selected Content than the time frame set forth in the Project Form, the Parties will discuss in good faith whether a time extension is feasible. If the Parties agree upon an extension, they shall record such agreement as an amendment to the Project Form. If the Parties can not agree upon an extension, Google shall return the Selected Content within the time frames set forth in the Project Form.

2.7 Responsibility for damage to the Selected Content. While certain Selected Content is within Google's possession, Google shall make commercially reasonable efforts to minimize damage to the Selected Content, including handling the Selected Content in accordance with handling instructions set forth in the Project Form, if any. If Google, due to its negligence, damages certain Selected Content, Google shall, at its own cost, have the damaged Selected Content restored to the condition in which Google received it. Restoration of all materials must be performed by or under the management of U of M Conservation Services.

3. COSTS

3.1 Costs borne by U of M. U of M shall bear the following costs: U of M employees (other than staff scanning operators and staff employed to pull and return materials to the shelves, including reshelving) whose participation is contemplated by this Agreement (including all cost of U of M employees required to provide Selected Content to Google as well as project management costs incurred by U of M), network bandwidth and data storage required by U of M to receive some or all of the U of M Digital Copy or existing bandwidth available for use by Google to transfer Digitized files from U of M facilities to Google's data centers and U of M space that may be available to Google.

3.2 Costs borne by Google. Google shall bear the following costs: Google employees or agents whose participation is contemplated by this Agreement (including all cost of Google employees required between receipt/collection of the Selected Content from U of M and return of the Selected Content to U of M), hardware and software required to Digitize the Selected Content, space required to Digitize the Selected Content (to the extent not provided by U of M), transportation of Selected Content from the U of M facility in which the Selected Content is normally kept (if required), and resolving copyright issues associated with Google's use of the Google Digital Copy.

3.3 Budgets. Notwithstanding the foregoing, U of M and Google may jointly develop a budget for each Project Plan, pursuant to which the parties can allocate the cost of researching and identifying the Selected Content, conducting conservation assessments, performing conservation work, and performing any required copyright research and clearances. Any such budget shall take precedence over the general obligations set forth above in sections 3.1 and 3.2.

4. OWNERSHIP AND USE OF DIGITAL COPIES AND SERVICES

4.1 Copyright Law. Both Google and U of M agree and intend to perform this Agreement pursuant to copyright law. If at any time, either party becomes aware of copyright infringement under this agreement, that party shall inform the other as quickly as reasonably possible.

4.2 Copyright Status. As Selected Content is provided by U of M to Google for Digitizing, U of M shall to the best of its knowledge notify Google which portions of the Selected Content are in the public domain and which portions may be subject to copyright. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Google shall be responsible for ensuring that Google's digitization and its use of the Google Digital Copy is authorized by the relevant copyright holders or by law. If either party reasonably determines that a portion of the Selected Content that was previously thought to be in the public domain is actually subject to copyright, that party shall promptly notify the other party in a writing that particularly identifies the portion(s) and provides an explanation for why the portion(s) are believed to be subject to copyright.

4.3 Searching Free to the Public: Google agrees that to the extent that it or its successors make Digitized Available Content searchable via the Internet, it shall provide an interface for both searching and a display of search results that shall have no direct cost to end users. Violations of this subsection, 4.3, not cured within thirty days of notification by U of M shall terminate U of M's obligations under section 4.4.

4.4 Ownership and use of U of M Digital Copy. Neither U of M nor Google shall have any ownership or license rights to the Available Content that is Digitized (i.e., to the materials underlying the digitization process), except where UM already has such rights. As between Google and U of M and subject to the provisions in this section 4, U of M shall own all rights, title, and interest to the U of M Digital Copy.

4.4.1 Use of U of M Digital Copy on U of M Website. U of M shall have the right to use the U of M Digital Copy, in whole or in part at U of M's sole discretion, as part of services offered on U of M's website. U of M shall implement technological measures (e.g., through use of the robots.txt protocol) to restrict automated access to any portion of the U of M Digital Copy or the portions of the U of M website on which any portion of the U of M Digital Copy is available. U of M shall also make reasonable efforts (including but not limited to restrictions placed in Terms of Use for the U of M website) to prevent third parties from (a) downloading or otherwise obtaining any portion of the U of M Digital Copy for commercial purposes, (b) redistributing any portions of the U of M Digital Copy, or (c) automated and systematic downloading from its website image files from the U of M Digital Copy. U of M shall restrict access to the U of M Digital Copy to those persons having a need to access such materials and shall also cooperate in good faith with Google to mutually develop methods and systems for ensuring that the substantial portions of the U of M Digital Copy are not downloaded from the services offered on U of M's website or otherwise disseminated to the public at large.

4.4.2 Use of U of M Digital Copy in Cooperative Web Services. Subject to the restrictions set forth in this section, U of M shall have the right to use the U of M Digital Copy, in whole or in part at U of M's sole discretion, as part of services offered in cooperation with partner research libraries such as the institutions in the Digital Library Federation. Before making any such distribution, U of M shall enter into a written agreement with the partner research library and shall provide a copy of such agreement to Google, which agreement shall: (a) contain limitations on the partner research library's use of the materials that correspond to and are at least as restrictive as the limitations placed on U of M's use of the U of M Digital Copy in section 4.4.1; and (b) shall expressly name Google as a third party beneficiary of that agreement, including the ability for Google to enforce the restrictions against the partner research library.

4.5 Ownership and use of Google Digital Copy. Neither U of M nor Google shall have any ownership or license rights to the Available Content that is digitized (i.e., to the materials underlying the digitization process), except where UM already owns such rights. As between Google and U of M and subject to the provisions in this section 4, Google shall own all rights, title, and interest to the Google Digital Copy.

4.5.1 Google use of Google Digital Copy. Subject to the restrictions set forth in this section, Google may use the Google Digital Copy, in whole or in part at Google's sole discretion, as part of the Services. For portions of the Google Digital Copy that correspond to works mutually identified as being in the public domain or for which Google has obtained permission from the relevant copyright owner(s), Google may among other things index the full text and serve and display full-sized digital images corresponding to those portions. For all other portions of the Google Digital Copy, Google may index the full text but may not serve or display the full-sized digital image unless Google has appropriate legal authority to do so; Google instead may serve and display (1) an excerpt that Google reasonably determines would constitute fair use under copyright law and (2) bibliographic (e.g., title, author, date, etc) and other non-copyrighted information. If U of M discovers that digital images being served and displayed full-size by Google are subject to copyright restrictions, U of M shall notify Google in writing and Google shall cease serving and displaying such images full-size. Furthermore, to address situations where Google believed it had the right to serve full-sized digital images but was incorrect in such belief, Google shall implement processes (e.g., notice and takedown) that facilitate the ability of copyright owners to request removal of such digital images from the index.

4.5.2 Security and Privacy Regarding Google's Use of the Google Digital Copy. Google shall implement technological measures (e.g., through use of the robots.txt protocol) to restrict automated access to any portion of the' Google Digital Copy or the portions of the Google website on which any portion of the Google Digital Copy is available. In addition, Google shall maintain on its website a privacy policy that governs collection and use of information that Google obtains from a user of the Google Search Services.

4.5.3 Distribution of Google Digital Copy. To the extent portions of the Google Digital Copy are either in the public domain or where Google has otherwise obtained authorization, Google shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to make copies of such portions of the Google Digital Copy and to provide, license, or sell such copies to any party, subject to such copies being used consistent with the copyright-related restrictions set forth in section 4.5.1.

4.6 Ownership and Control of Services. As between the parties, the Services and all content therein is, and at all times will remain, the exclusive property of Google or its partners; nothing in this Agreement implies any transfer to U of M of any ownership interest in the Services. U of M acknowledges and agrees that Google retains control of the Services, and that the design, layout, content, functions and features of the Services are at Google's discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Google is not required to make any or all of the Google Digital Copy available through the Services.

4.7 No other rights. Except as set forth above, nothing in this subsection shall be interpreted as a grant of right from either party to the other party.

5. ACCESS, AUTHORIZATION, AND SUPPORT

5.1 Access. On a project-specific basis, Google shall have the right to access Selected Content during U of M business/staff hours (8:00am to 5:00pm, Monday through Friday) without first being required to notify U of M. On a project-specific basis, U of M may make reasonable efforts to provide Google with access to Selected Content outside of U of M business hours provided that Google notify U of M at least three days in advance of its desire to access such materials.

5.2 Authorization. The U of M program manager responsible for the Selected Content involved in any Project Plan shall have authority to agree with Google on the time frames and procedures (e.g., collection, conservation, handling) associated with that Selected Content. If Google in good faith believes that the time frames and procedures requested by the U of M program manager are unreasonable, Google shall escalate the matter to the U of M administrative contact; in which case Google, the U of M program manager, and the administrative contact shall meet to resolve the issue.

5.3 Support. U of M shall appoint one person to serve as the administrative contact for Google, should administrative questions or issues arise during the course of this Agreement. This administrative contact shall be available during business hours at a telephone number and e-mail address to be provided by U of M. U of M shall also appoint one person to serve as the technical contact for Google, for obtaining or regulating the use of the U of M Digital Copy. This technical contact shall be available during regular U of M business hours (8:30 to 4:30, Monday through Friday) at a telephone number and e-mail address to be provided by U of M. Upon execution of this contract, both Google and U of M shall identify these individuals in writing, and the resulting document shall serve as an addendum to this contract.

6. CONFIDENTIALITY

6.1 Confidential Information. By virtue of this Agreement, each Party may have access to information of the other Party which is considered confidential and proprietary, including the terms of this Agreement, Project Plan or Project Form, product plans, customer lists, and proprietary technology or methods ("Confidential Information"), whether disclosed in tangible or intangible form. Information disclosed in tangible form will be considered Confidential Information if it is marked as "Confidential" or a similar designation. Information disclosed in intangible form will be considered Confidential Information if the disclosing party clearly indicates that it is confidential at the time of disclosure.

6.2 Obligations. Each Party shall exercise at least the same degree of care to avoid the publication or dissemination of the Confidential Information of the other Party as it affords to its own confidential information of a similar nature which it desires not to be published or disseminated. The receiving Party shall not use Confidential Information of the disclosing Party except in the furtherance of this Agreement or the performance of its obligations hereunder. The obligation of the Parties not to disclose Confidential Information survives expiration, termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

6.3 Exceptions. Neither Party is obligated to protect Confidential Information of the other Party that: (i) is rightfully received by the receiving Party from another party without restriction, or (ii) is known to or developed by the receiving Party independently without use of, or reference to, the Confidential Information, or (iii) is or becomes generally known to the public by other than a breach of duty hereunder by the receiving Party, (iv) has been or is hereafter furnished to others by the disclosing Party without restriction on disclosure, or (v) required to be disclosed by any governmental authority. Google understands that U of M, as a public institution, is subject to the Michigan Freedom of Information Act, and any disclosure of Confidential Information required by that statute will not constitute a breach of this agreement.

7. MARKETING

7.1 Press Releases or Announcements. Other than as has been mutually agreed upon by the Parties, neither Party may make any press announcements about the relationship or this Agreement without the prior written approval of the other Party, which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. U of M and Google, as practicable, will coordinate regarding the timing of any press release(s) and will mutually agree upon appropriate talking points.

7.2 License to Marks. Each party will submit all materials of any kind containing the other party's Brand Features (other than its name in customer lists) to the other party for approval prior to release to the public. Except as set forth in this section, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to grant to one party any right, title or interest in or to the other party's Brand Features. All use by Google of U of M's Brand Features (including any goodwill associated therewith) shall inure to the benefit of U of M and all use by U of M of Google's Brand Features (including any goodwill associated therewith) shall inure to the benefit of Google. At no time during the Term shall one party challenge or assist others to challenge the Brand Features of the other party (except to the extent required to protect its own Brand Features) or the registration thereof by the other party, nor shall either party attempt to register any Brand Features or domain names that are confusingly similar to those of the other party

EXCEPT FOR DAMAGES ARISING FROM BREACH OF SECTION 6 (CONFIDENTIALITY) OR DAMAGES ARISING FROM BREACH OF SECTIONS 4.4 - 4.6 (AND ASSOCIATED SUBSECTIONS), EACH PARTY'S LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE FEES EXPENDED BY THE OTHER PARTY AS OF THE DATE OF SUCH CLAIM.

12. GENERAL PROVISIONS

12.1 No Obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Google shall have no obligation to Digitize any portion of the Available Content nor to use any portion of the Google Digital Copy as part of the Services. U of M shall not be obligated to participate in any Project Plan to the extent U of M does not have sufficient funds to perform its budgeted obligations under that Project Plan. Furthermore, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event Google determines, at its sole discretion, not to Digitize some or all Selected Content in connection with one or more specific Projects, whether due to cost issues, conservation concerns or otherwise, Google shall have no obligation to the U of M with respect to digitizing or delivering the U of M Digital Copy with respect to such Selected Content.

12.2 Assignment. Neither Party may assign this Agreement without the other Party's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any attempt to assign this Agreement other than as permitted above will be null and void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement is binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the Parties, and the successors and permitted assigns of each.

12.3 Notices. Any notice required or permitted by this Agreement will be deemed given if sent by facsimile or by registered mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the other Party at the address set forth at the top of this Agreement. Delivery will be deemed effective upon transmission by facsimile (with receipt acknowledgement) or three (3) days after deposit with postal authorities. Unless otherwise specified by Google, notices directed to Google shall be sent to Google Inc., Attn: General Counsel, 2400 Bayshore Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043, or via facsimile to Google Inc., Attn: General Counsel, 650- 618-1499.

Neither Party shall have any right, power or authority to enter into any agreement for or on behalf of, or incur any obligation or liability, or to otherwise bind, the other Party.

12.5 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or otherwise void against public policy, such term or provision shall be stricken and shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement.

12.6 Force Majeure. Performance by either party under this Agreement shall be excused during the period such performance is prevented or delayed by government restrictions, war or warlike activity (e.g., acts of terrorism), insurrection or civil disorder, labor disputes, or any other causes similarly or dissimilar to the foregoing that are beyond the control of either party and are not foreseeable at the time the Agreement (or relevant amendment) is executed.

12.7 General. The Agreement shall be governed by Federal law without giving effect to applicable conflict of laws provisions. In the event of any dispute or litigation ariSing out of or relating to this Agreement, each Party agrees that it shall attempt to resolve such dispute in good faith. If such dispute cannot be resolved within thirty days of being raised, the dispute shall be elevated to the highest level at each Party. If the dispute still cannot be resolved within an additional thirty days, the aggrieved party may file a lawsuit in the state or federal courts with jurisdiction to hear such suits in the State of Michigan. This Agreement, including any Project Forms and attached Exhibits, constitutes the entire understanding and agreement with respect to its subject matter, and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous representations, understandings and agreements whether oral or written between the Parties relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, all of which are merged in this Agreement. For avoidance of doubt, as of the Effective Date, this Agreement supersedes and replaces any other Cooperative Agreements between the parties to the extent they exist. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights under this Agreement, will be effective unless in writing Signed by the Party to be charged, and the waiver of any breach or default will not constitute a waiver of any other right hereunder or any subsequent breach or default. All amendments or modifications of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Parties despite any lack of consideration so long as such amendment or modifications are in writing and executed by the Parties. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to judicial decree or decision, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain valid and enforceable according to its terms. In such event, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith, a legal and enforceable substitute provision which most nearly conforms to the Parties' intention in entering into this Agreement. The section and paragraph headings used in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed by exchange of signature pages by facsimile and/or in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original as against any Party whose signature appears thereon and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
