Agreement(s) from DISTRIBUTOR;

      (vii) provide Recovery Images and Update Images to OEM Customers as
received from an AR and in accordance with the Media Packaging Guidelines;

      (viii) provide Supplemental Code and any related Additional Licensing
Provisions for OEM Customer only in the manner set forth in the then current
Royalty Rate List and/or a Supplemental Code letter from MS;

      (ix) at the end of each business week, express mail to MS both OEM
Customer-signed originals of the OEM Customer Agreements and any Additional
Rights returned to DISTRIBUTOR, provided that each such OEM Customer is located
in the Territory;

      (x) upon notice from MS that an OEM Customer Agreement executed by a
potential OEM Customer is unacceptable, immediately discontinue distribution of
Licensed Product(s) to such potential OEM Customer and make reasonably
commercial efforts to retrieve any Licensed Products(s) previously distributed
to the potential OEM Customer;

      (xi) notify MS within ten (10) days of any change regarding the OEM
Customer's information.

(g) DISTRIBUTOR shall not remove or obscure any copyright, trademark or patent
notices that appear on the Licensed Product as delivered to DISTRIBUTOR.

(h) DISTRIBUTOR shall not use any name or trademark confusingly similar to or
undertake any other action that will interfere with or diminish MS or MSCORP
right, title or interest in, any Licensed Product trademark(s) or trade name(s),
and will comply with reasonable guidelines provided by MSCORP from time to time
for reference to, and use of, such Licensed Product mark(s) or name(s).

(i) (i) DISTRIBUTOR shall not use or display any logo of MS or its
Suppliers (including without limitation any stylized representation of the
Microsoft name used by MS or MSCORP) in DISTRIBUTOR's materials or packaging
unless authorized in a logo license between DISTRIBUTOR and MS or its Suppliers.

    (ii) MSCORP may, from time to time, designate one or more logos for use with
the Licensed Product. Use of such logo(s) is optional. This Agreement does not
grant DISTRIBUTOR or an OEM Customer the right to use or display MS or MSCORP

logo licenses, DISTRIBUTOR should contact its Microsoft account manager.

(j) Upon notice from MS, DISTRIBUTOR shall promptly discontinue distribution of
Licensed Product to an OEM Customer. DISTRIBUTOR shall cooperate with MS in
investigating instances of distribution of Licensed Product(s) in violation of
this Section 2.

(k) DISTRIBUTOR shall not reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble any
Licensed Product except as permitted by applicable law which cannot be waived by
this subsection 2(k). Solely in connection with the terms and conditions of
Article 6 of the European Community's Directive for the Legal Protection of
Computer Programs, OJL 122/42 (17 May 1991), and only with respect to
jurisdictions which have adopted the same terms and conditions by legislation
implementing the Directive, DISTRIBUTOR acknowledges that information on
interoperability of the Licensed Product with other products is readily
available.

(l) MS reserves all rights not expressly granted in this Agreement.

(m) DISTRIBUTOR shall make no representation, nor any express or implied
warranty to third parties (including, without limitation, to any OEM Customer or
end users), on behalf of MS. DISTRIBUTOR shall defend, indemnify and hold MS
and its Suppliers harmless against all damages and costs, including reasonable
attorneys' fees, that MS and its Suppliers incur in connection with any warranty
or representation by DISTRIBUTOR.

(n) This Agreement does not give DISTRIBUTOR title to any Licensed Product,
packaging, papers, materials, and/or other property of MS related to a
Licensed Product. In particular:

      (i) MS has and will retain title to all Licensed Product (and related
papers and materials) from the time that the Licensed Product is acquired by
DISTRIBUTOR from ARs until DISTRIBUTOR distributes the Licensed Products in
Compliance with the Agreement.

      (ii) As MS owns all Licensed Product(s) in the possession and control of
DISTRIBUTOR, MS may take possession of or destroy all Licensed Product
inventory (and related papers and materials) when this Agreement expires or is
canceled, or after the final shipment date as set forth in Section
2(a)(ii)(B), even if an intervening bankruptcy or insolvency case is filed by or
against DISTRIBUTOR or a receiver or trustee is appointed to operate or
liquidate DISTRIBUTOR.

      (iii) In no circumstances will any receiver or trustee of DISTRIBUTOR be
entitled to sell or distribute any Licensed Product obtained by DISTRIBUTOR
pursuant to the Agreement except in strict compliance with the terms of the
Agreement, and only with the express written consent of MS.

(a) At least fifteen (15) days prior to the first day of each month, MS will
post on the ECE, or provide to DISTRIBUTOR by electronic notice (email) or
written notice, or such other website as MS may designate from time to time the
Royalty Rate List for the upcoming month.

(b) MS may modify the Royalty Rate List upon notice to DISTRIBUTOR. Submission
of Licensed Product orders to AR(s) or distribution of Licensed Product after
the effective date of any modifications to the Royalty Rate List shall
constitute DISTRIBUTOR's acceptance of such modifications. New royalty rates
will be effective upon such notice or on the date specified on the Royalty Rate
List.

(c) The royalty rate(s) and Additional Licensing Provisions for MS Distributor
for any Licensed Product removed from the Royalty Rate List shall be as stated
on the last Royalty Rate List that included the Licensed Product.

4. REPORTS AND PAYMENTS.

(a) DISTRIBUTOR agrees that it will maintain a tracking system for a period of
three(3) years after the expiration or cancellation of this Agreement, which
allows for complete tracking of shipments by

      (i) Licensed Product - including quantity, COA sticker serial numbers,
shipment dates, and APM. Upon MS request, DISTRIBUTOR will provide a
reconciliation that will account for beginning and ending COA, Licensed Product
and APM inventory, acquisitions from ARs, distribution to OEM Customers and
Third Party Installers, customer returns, and COAs, Licensed Product and APM
that cannot be distributed for any reason;

      (ii) OEM Customer - including contact name, address, and telephone number,
and OEM Customer Agreement number, DISTRIBUTOR shall take all steps necessary to
ensure that DISTRIBUTOR's collection and provision of information as required
by the Sales-Out and Royalty Reporting Guidelines is in compliance with all
applicable national data protection laws.

(b) DISTRIBUTOR shall ensure that all reports submitted by DISTRIBUTOR to MS

terms of this Agreement.

(h) If DISTRIBUTOR discovers an over-reporting error, DISTRIBUTOR shall report

MS' sole opinion, are in quantities greater than DISTRIBUTOR will be able to
distribute or make timely payment for in compliance with this Agreement.

(j) Royalties are separate from, and in addition to, any charges by the AR for
Licensed Products ordered by DISTRIBUTOR. Royalties also exclude any taxes,
duties, fees, excises or tariffs imposed on any of DISTRIBUTOR's activities in
connection with this Agreement. Such charges, taxes, duties, fees, excises or
tariffs, if any, shall be paid by DISTRIBUTOR.

(k) If DISTRIBUTOR distributes any Licensed Product in violation of this

royalty equal to thirty percent (30%) of the highest royalty rate for the
Licensed Product(s). In the event the applicable royalty rate has

percent (30%)of the royalty rate for the applicable Licensed Product(s).
DISTRIBUTOR shall pay such additional royalty within thirty(30) days of receipt
of MS' invoice.

official receipt for any such taxes withheld or other documents necessary to
enable MS to claim a U.S.A. Foreign Tax Credit. If DISTRIBUTOR is located in a
jurisdiction that utilizes the Value Added Tax or sales tax numbers ("VAT
Number") for tax identification purpose, DISTRIBUTOR's VAT Number shall be
provided in the Addresses Schedule. DISTRIBUTOR shall make certain that any
taxes withheld are minimized to the extent permitted by applicable law.

receipts or documents that are not delivered to MS within the sixty (60) days
identified above.

pursue MSCORP provided leads may result in a decrease in the number of such
leads provided to DISTRIBUTOR.

      (ii) Upon MS request, DISTRIBUTOR shall provide to MS further details on
any of the entries made by DISTRIBUTOR in accordance with subsection 4(o)(i)
above.

5. QUALIFICATION FOR REBATE AMOUNT

(a)   Subject to the eligibility requirements described below, MS shall pay the
      Rebate Amount to DISTRIBUTOR for successful achievement of the Objectives
      for the applicable Period. Rebate attainment shall be based on information
      from DISTRIBUTOR's monthly royalty report and/or sales-out reports or
      other proof of compliance as specified by MS. MS shall make the final
      binding determination whether DISTRIBUTOR has satisfactorily accomplished

      reporting Period, a payment ratio may be applied to the Rebate Amount as
      described in the RPA. However, if DISTRIBUTOR is partially compliant in
      any given month, that month will be treated as non-compliant.

(a)   The Rebate Amount(s) earned by DISTRIBUTOR shall be awarded at MS' option
      as (i) credits that may be used to offset then-current or future royalties
      which accrue pursuant to the Agreement (or a successor agreement to the
      Agreement) or (ii) in the form of a check sent to DISTRIBUTOR in care of

      Rebate Amount was earned. If the Agreement is terminated or expires after
      completion of a full Period in which a rebate was offered, and no
      successor agreement is entered into between DISTRIBUTOR and MS, then MS
      shall refund to DISTRIBUTOR the Rebate Amount earned, less deductions for
      any outstanding amounts or obligations due to MS under the Agreement.

(b)   DISTRIBUTOR shall be solely responsible for payment of taxes, duties,
      fees, excises or tariffs imposed on any discounts, credits or payments
      made by MS to DISTRIBUTOR pursuant to this Rebate Program, provided
      however, MS may withhold and pay to tax authorities such amounts as may be

Program Schedule for DISTRIBUTOR's attainment of the following Objective(s) as
set forth below. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have
the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

appearance of having, been duly authorized by DISTRIBUTOR to use the applicable
Site on behalf of DISTRIBUTOR. The term "DISTRIBUTOR Administrator(s)" means the

until such time as MS has received not less than forty-eight (48) hours notice
from DISTRIBUTOR through the * or * email aliases for MOO and the ECE
respectively that DISTRIBUTOR has made a change to any authority previously
established by DISTRIBUTOR in connection with such designation.

(b) DISTRIBUTOR Administrator(s) shall be solely responsible for establising,
maintaining and terminating all access and authorities for Users, including
(without limitation) creating or arranging for all passwords, private encryption

others. If prior notice is not provided, MS shall provide DISTRIBUTOR with
subsequent notice within a reasonable time unless the provision thereof might
continue a possible harm or threat of harm, or impede or compromise any
investigation into the same.

(d) DISTRIBUTOR agrees that neither MS nor any of its agents shall have any
liability for any failure to provide a level of security greater than that
generally afforded by the use of (i) client side digital certificates at *-bit

respective functionality and all information on them shall be treated as
confidential information under Section 17 of this Agreement.

(h) (i) DISTRIBUTOR agrees to access and use MOO for all transactions and
purposes contemplated by MOO until the date that is the earliest of the date
that: (A) MS ceases to provide MOO to similarly situated embedded distributors,
or (B) the date DISTRIBUTOR has satisfied all of its rights and obligations
under all License Agreements.

or any other User(s) has supplied on the applicable Site or otherwise in
relation to a Site session, DISTRIBUTOR Password Information; or (B) DISTRIBUTOR
or Users have failed to keep DISTRIBUTOR Password Information secure and the
failure caused or contributed to creation of an appearance that actions taken in
connection with the applicable Site were being taken by, or on behalf of,

to verify that the terms of this Agreement with respect to Personal Information
are being followed. The results of such audit shall be made available to MS on
request.

      (v)Upon request from MS, DISTRIBUTOR shall provide MS with any or all
Personal Information in DISTRIBUTOR's possession. Upon termination or expiration
