Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On October 19, 2006, Symantec Corporation and Symantec Limited (together the “Company”) and Digital River, Inc. and Digital River Limited (together “Digital River”) entered into the Second Amended and Restated Symantec Online Store Agreement (the “Agreement”), which Agreement supersedes and replaces the Amended and Restated Authorized Symantec Electronic Reseller for Shop Symantec Agreement, dated as of July 1, 2003, as amended.
The Agreement sets forth the terms under which Digital River will continue to act as a nonexclusive electronic reseller of certain Symantec products (the “Products”), and provider of other services in connection with the resale of the Products. The Agreement grants to Digital River a license to market, distribute, and transfer the Products, but does not otherwise transfer any right, title or interest in the Products to Digital River. The Agreement expires on June 30, 2010, and may be extended by amendment thereafter by agreement of both parties thereto.
