                                   4    5

Distributor to Developer are solely for the purpose of requesting delivery dates and quantities. All Orders shall be subject to acceptance by Developer; Developer will not unreasonably delay acceptance of any order. Developer shall use reasonable efforts to deliver accepted Orders but shall not be liable for any damages to Distributor or to any third party caused by Developer's delay or error in filling, or failure to fill, any Orders for any reason. Except as otherwise provided herein, all fees and expenses payable hereunder for which Developer issues an invoice to Distributor shall be due and payable thirty (30) days from the date of the invoice.

     Software license fees associated with Software license agreements in which the sales cycle begins on or after May 1, 1994 (hereinafter New Software license agreements) for Product sites located in the Territory, shall be allocated and distributed as follows:

              Gross Software Revenue Generated     % to Distributor                  --------------------------------     ----------------                  Per Annum July 1- June 30

              US$O -- $999,999                          40%                  US$1,O00,000 +                            50%

     On July 1 each year, the gross software revenue generated figure will be reset to zero and the accumulation of software revenues will restart.

     However, the foregoing allocation of such fees associated with the New Software license agreements involving a headquarter Product or other site licenses situated outside of the Territory may be subject to reduced percentages to Distributor due to royalties owed to other Developer entities, affiliates, or distributors located outside the Territory, who may also have participated in the sale. Each such situation will be evaluated individually and a final decision on the royalty due will be based upon each party's relative contribution and will be made in Developer's sole discretion. The general guidelines for such cases are outlined in Appendix E (Bergamo Rules).

     Installation, consulting, and training fees associated with the Products are due and payable to the party performing the services.

     License Renewal and Maintenance Fees will be split evenIy with 50% distributed to Developer and 50% distributed to Distributor, also subject to paragraph 4 of this section 2.3.

     Distributor will submit a monthly report to Developer which accurately identifies the Software license fees, maintenance fees, and any other fees set forth in this Agreement (repons outlined in Schedule D). This report is due at

     In addition to the Prices and other fees payable hereunder, Distributor shall record and pay any federal, state, local or other duties, withholding and excise taxes, now or hereafter applied on the sale, transportation, import, export, licensing or use of the Products including sales tax, value added tax or similar tax.
