Exclusive/ Non-exclusive help

Somewhat confused.  Can someone please clarify for me what these terms do in a grant, and how does this impact right to use?
 
Also, on affiliates, this issue ties in with right to use potentially, and of course pricing, correct?
 
Many thanks.

What kind of "grant"?  If you're talking about a license, then "exclusive" and "non-exclusive" mean exactly what they suggest.  
 
I'm not sure what you mean by "affiliate".

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it.
 
Under the grant heading of say, a perpetual software license - exclusive means to only one other party, correct?
 
By affiliates, I meant A licenses to B + B's affiliates.

Exclusive and non-exclusive generally refer to rights -- those rights may be exclusive or non-exclusive with respect to a party but also with respect to a party within this or that territory or market as opposed to some other territory or market.  
 
Re affiliates: I think we need to know not so much what you mean by the term "affiliates," but what you mean by the affiliate "issue".
