In the event Publisher acquires domain names, or an entity that owns domain names, that are subject to a separate existing agreement with Overture then such domain names shall automatically be added as additional Designated Sites that are included within the definition of Publisher’s Offering and Publisher’s Web Sites under this Agreement. At Overture’s acceptance of such Proposed Domains for inclusion under this Agreement, the parties agree to amend the Agreement to include any such additional Proposed Domains as Designated Sites (excluding any Excluded Sites) within the definitions of “Publisher’s Offerings” and, as applicable, “Publisher’s Web Sites.”
