The distant high approach to the 4-4 point at W1 is a light move rarely seen in even games. W1 is often used in handicap games.

B4 at either a or b. Black at a is a clear division of territory while black at b offers white options.

The continuations after W5 are the same as the joseki without W5 and B4.
