The agreement gives Youbet.com a license to utilize TVG's patented wagering technology for online and automated telephone applications and the right to video stream and accept online pari-mutuel wagers on horse racing from virtually all of TVG's exclusive partner racetracks including Churchill Downs (owned by Churchill Downs Inc., Nasdaq:CHDN), Del Mar, Belmont Park, Aqueduct and Saratoga. |
