Second Amendment to the
Letter Agreement
Between
Waterfront Media Inc. and
Empowered Media, LLC
This Second Amendment (“Amendment”) amends and modifies the letter agreement (the “Agreement”) made effective as of November 7, 2005 that was originally between J.M. Athletics, LLC and Waterfront Media Inc. (“Waterfront”). The Agreement was assigned by J.M. Athletics, LLC to Empowered Media, LLC (“Licensor”) on or about May 12, 2009. The parties enter into this Amendment on or about November 6, 2009 (the “Amendment Effective Date”). All defined terms in this Amendment have the meaning given to them in the Agreement unless otherwise defined in this Amendment.
Whereas, Waterfront, in its performance of the Agreement, has received requests to make Jillian Michaels (“Talent”), her name, likeness and voice available to third party advertisers for special online advertising campaigns;
Whereas, the parties desire that Waterfront be able to make Jillian Michaels (the “Talent”), her name, likeness and voice available to third party advertisers for special advertising campaigns;
Whereas, the parties desire to amend the operational and financial terms under which Talent may refer third party advertisers to Waterfront;
In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged by the Parties, Licensor and Waterfront agree to amend the Agreement as follows:
          (a) Right to market and sell Talent’s services, name, likeness and voice. Insert a paragraph 1(e) as follows: Subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Licensor hereby agrees that Waterfront is granted a non-exclusive right to market Talent’s services, name, likeness and voice in association with third party advertising campaigns only as and to the extent approved by Licensor (collectively, the “Talent Services and Rights”). Prior to offering Talent Services and Rights, Waterfront first must present to Licensor the name of the proposed advertiser and any creative elements for such campaign. The fees that Licensor will charge any third party advertiser will be the fees agreed upon by Licensor and the advertiser in negotiations conducted by Waterfront on Licensor’s behalf and guidance. Such fees may include the Talent Service and Fees set forth in Schedule 1. Licensor may approve third party advertising campaigns in its sole, complete discretion and will enter into an agreement for the Talent Services and Rights directly with the advertiser at its own discretion.

          (c) Referrals. Delete the last sentence of Paragraph 8(b) beginning with “Notwithstanding...” and ending with “...between Waterfront and the advertiser.)” Enumerate current 8(b) as 8(b)(i); in 8(b)(i) replace the phrase “Advertising Revenue” with “Gross Advertising Revenue”. Insert an 8(b)(ii) as follows: “Licensor shall have the opportunity to refer its licensing, endorsement, or other contractual partners to Waterfront for the purpose of advertising on the Service.
