(a) Grant of Transitional License. Notwithstanding the requirements of Section 5.2(a) of the Separation Agreement or Section 13.1 above, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 13.2, Duke Energy hereby grants to GasCo, effective as of the Effective Date and terminating on the first (1^st ) anniversary of the Distribution Date (the “TM License Period”), a limited, non-exclusive, royalty free and non-transferable license to use all trademarks owned by Duke Energy or any of its Subsidiaries (including the trademarks “Duke Energy” and “Duke Energy Corporation” or any other trademark containing the word “Duke”) that are used by Duke Energy in connection with its human resources programs and systems as of the Effective Time (the “Duke Energy Trademarks”) solely in connection with the operation of GasCo’s human resources programs and systems (including use in connection with GasCo’s websites, benefit manuals and correspondence with program participants); provided, however, that GasCo shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to substitute its own corporate identification for the corporate identification that includes the Duke Energy Trademarks in connection with such systems and programs as soon as reasonably practicable after the Distribution Date, but in no event no event later than the expiration of the TM License Period. GasCo agrees that immediately upon the expiration of the TM License Period, GasCo shall cease all further use of the Duke Energy Trademarks in connection with its human resources systems and programs and destroy any and all materials related thereto bearing the Duke Energy Trademarks. GasCo shall

neither sublicense the Duke Energy Trademarks, nor shall GasCo publish, distribute or otherwise use the Duke Energy Trademarks for any purpose other than as expressly provided in this Section 13.2. GasCo shall use the Duke Energy Trademarks in accordance with sound trademark usage principles and all applicable Laws as reasonably necessary to maintain the validity and enforceability of Duke Energy’s rights in such trademarks and GasCo shall not use the Duke Energy Trademarks in any manner which might tarnish, disparage, or reflect adversely on Duke Energy or the Duke Energy Trademarks. If GasCo uses the Duke Energy Trademarks in a manner which Duke Energy, in its reasonable judgment, determines reflects adversely upon the image, goodwill and reputation of Duke Energy or the Duke Energy Trademarks, then, upon receipt of written notice from Duke Energy identifying its objection, GasCo shall immediately cease the particular use to which Duke Energy has objected. GasCo agrees to cooperate with and assist Duke Energy in protecting and enforcing Duke Energy’s rights in the Duke Energy Trademarks and in maintaining any registrations with any Governmental Entities for the Duke Energy Trademarks in force. GasCo shall assist Duke Energy in the enforcement of rights in the Duke Energy Trademarks by promptly informing Duke Energy of any actual or potential claim, demand, infringement, misuse or misappropriation relating to the Duke Energy Trademarks to the extent that GasCo is in possession of such information or otherwise becomes aware of any such actual or potential claim, demand, infringement, misuse or misappropriation. Duke Energy will have the sole right to determine whether or not to investigate such alleged infringement and to determine whether to initiate or participate in any judicial or administrative proceeding involving the Duke Energy Trademarks. Duke Energy is and shall remain the sole owner of the Duke Energy Trademarks and all goodwill associated therewith. GasCo acknowledges that nothing herein gives GasCo any right, title or interest in the Duke Energy Trademarks, apart from the license granted under this Section 13.2(a), and in no event shall GasCo’s use of the Duke Energy Trademarks be deemed to vest any right, title or interest to the Duke Energy Trademarks in GasCo. All uses of the Duke Energy Trademarks by GasCo, and all goodwill generated thereby, shall inure exclusively and completely to the benefit of Duke Energy. GasCo, agrees that it shall not contest or challenge the validity of, or Duke Energy’s title in, the Duke Energy Trademarks, and it shall not register or apply for registration of the Duke Energy Trademarks.

(b) Notice and Disclaimer. GasCo shall inform all of its and its Subsidiaries employees, retirees and other human resources program participants by written notice as soon as reasonably practicable after the Distribution Date that GasCo, and not Duke Energy, is responsible for the operation of GasCo’s human resources programs or systems after the Effective Time, and that GasCo’s use of the Duke Energy Trademarks in connection with such human resources programs or systems does not imply any commitment or obligation on the part of Duke Energy or any of its subsidiaries with respect to such individuals. GasCo shall also include with any publication or distribution of the Duke Energy Trademarks for use in connection with its human resources programs or systems (i) a trademark legend readable to users indicating that the Duke Energy Trademarks are owned solely by Duke Energy, but licensed to GasCo for certain limited uses under a separate license agreement, and (ii) a disclaimer that GasCo, and not Duke Energy, is responsible for the operation of GasCo’s human resources programs or systems after the Effective Time, and that GasCo’s use of the Duke Energy Trademarks in connection with such human resources programs or systems does not imply any commitment or obligation on the part of Duke Energy or any of its subsidiaries with

respect to GasCo’s or any of its subsidiaries’ employees, retirees and other human resources program participants.

(c) Indemnity. GasCo hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Duke Energy and each of its Affiliates from and against any and all claims, losses, demands, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs and expenses related thereto) suffered or incurred by Duke Energy or any of its Affiliates as a result of or in connection with any third party claims arising from GasCo’s or any of its subsidiaries’ use of the Duke Energy Trademarks in connection with its human resources programs or systems. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any claim for indemnification under this Section 13.2 shall not be governed by, or be subject to, the provisions of Section 11.
