NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

NRS shall preapprove all such ads in its sole discretion. Under no circumstance shall the allotted time for Retailer-generated advertisements exceed 10% of Equipment daily run-time.
