that (i) it has the power and authority to enter into this Agreement and perform
its obligations hereunder, (ii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement and
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby has been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action on the part
of such party, and (iii) this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by

obligation of such party enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

     (b) BY PRINTCAFE. printCafe represents and warrants to CoNext that none of
its Internet based e-commerce print procurement solutions or the Products
infringe, misappropriate or violate any intellectual property rights of any
third parties.

     8. INDEMNIFICATION.

     (a) BY PRINTCAFE. Subject to SECTION 8(B), printCafe shall defend, hold
harmless and indemnify CoNext, its Affiliates and their respective directors,
officers, employees and agents (the "CoNext Indemnified Parties") from and
against any and all

                                       7
<PAGE>

claims, liabilities, losses or damages (including reasonable attorneys' fees,
expert witness fees, expenses and costs of settlement) resulting from or arising
out of:

          (i) any infringement, misappropriation, violation or misuse of any
     patent, copyright, trade secret or other intellectual property rights
     (collectively, "Infringement Claims") asserted by any third party against
     any CoNext Indemnified Party or its clients in connection with the use of
     any of printCafe's Internet based e-commerce print procurement solutions or
     the Products; and

          (ii) any claim asserted by any third party against any of the CoNext
     Indemnified Parties or their clients in connection with products or
     services offered by printCafe or any of its Affiliates.

     (b) PROCEDURES.

          (i) If any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action or
     proceeding (any of the foregoing, a "Claim") is threatened or commenced
     against any CoNext Indemnified Party that printCafe is obligated to defend,
     hold harmless or indemnify under SECTION 8(a), then notice thereof shall be
     given to printCafe as promptly as practicable; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any
     delay by the CoNext Indemnified Party in giving such notice shall not
     constitute a breach of this Agreement and shall not excuse printCafe's
     obligation under this SECTION 8(b)(i) except to the extent, if any, that
     printCafe is prejudiced by such delay. After such notice, printCafe shall
     be entitled, if it so elects in writing within ten (10) days after receipt
     of such notice, to take control of the defense and investigation of such
     Claim and to employ and engage attorneys of its choice to handle and defend
     the same, at printCafe's sole cost and expense. The CoNext Indemnified
     Party shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with printCafe and its
     attorneys in the investigation, trial and defense of such Claim and any
     appeal arising therefrom; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the CoNext Indemnified
     Party may, at its own cost and expense, participate through its attorneys
     or otherwise, in such investigation, trial and defense of such Claim and
     any appeal arising therefrom. In any Claim the defense of which is
     controlled by printCafe, printCafe shall not, without the CoNext
     Indemnified Party's prior written consent (which consent shall not be
     unreasonably withheld or delayed), compromise or settle such Claim if: (A)
     such compromise or settlement would impose an injunction or other equitable
     relief upon any CoNext Indemnified Party; or (B) such compromise or
     settlement does not include a release of the CoNext Indemnified Party from
     all liability relating to such Claim for which the CoNext Indemnified Party
     is entitled to be indemnified.

          (ii) After notice by printCafe to the CoNext Indemnified Party of its
     election to assume full control of the defense of any such Claim pursuant
     to SECTION 8(b)(i), printCafe shall not be liable to the CoNext Indemnified
     Party for any legal expenses incurred thereafter by such CoNext Indemnified
     Party in connection with the defense of that Claim and any appeal arising
     therefrom. If printCafe does not assume full control over the defense of a
     Claim pursuant to SECTION 8(b)(i), then printCafe may participate in such
     defense, at its sole cost and

                                       8
<PAGE>

     expense, and the CoNext Indemnified Party may defend and/or settle the
     Claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate, at the cost and expense of
     printCafe.

     9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. A party's liability to the other party to this
Agreement or any other party for damages, injuries, losses, costs or expenses of
any kind, however caused, based on or arising from or in connection with this
Agreement, any termination hereof, or the subject matter hereof, whether arising
in contract or tort (including as a result of negligence or strict liability),
and whether or not such party shall have been informed, or might have
anticipated the possibility of any such damage, loss, cost or expense shall be
limited in the aggregate to $100,000. The foregoing limitations shall not apply
to: (a) amounts for fees and charges otherwise due and payable under this
Agreement (if any); (b) a breach of SECTION 4; or (c) amounts due pursuant to
the indemnification obligations set forth in SECTION 8.

     10. DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION TO THE
CONTRARY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY, ANY OF
THEIR AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS BE
LIABLE UNDER ANY THEORY OF TORT, CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER LEGAL OR
EQUITABLE THEORY FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL,
INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EACH OF WHICH IS HEREBY EXCLUDED BY AGREEMENT
OF THE PARTIES REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT EITHER PARTY OR ANY OTHER SUCH
ENTITY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES; PROVIDED THE
FOREGOING EXCLUSION SHALL NOT APPLY TO CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOST PROFITS
INCURRED BY EITHER PARTY AS A RESULT OF A BREACH OF SECTION 4 OR THE
INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 8.

     11. OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS.

     (a) INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS. The parties and their respective employees and
representatives are and shall be independent contractors with respect to the
other party and neither party by virtue of this Agreement shall have any right,
power or authority to act or create any obligation, express or implied, on
behalf of the other party.

valid, legal and enforceable while preserving its intent or, if such
modification is not possible, by substituting therefor another provision that is
valid, legal and enforceable so as to materially effectuate the parties' intent.

                                    EXHIBIT A

           PRINTCAFE E-COMMERCE SITE SPECIFICATIONS (AUGUST 21, 2000)

          THE PRIVATE LABEL SITE PROVIDES THE FOLLOWING FUNCTIONALITY:

CREATION OF NEW PROJECTS
The New Project feature allows the creativity to design products via process
tabs. These tabs help specify job requirements. Print buyers can provide details
needed to produce jobs. This same information is used to create an RFQ (Request
for Quote), an estimate, and then the print job instructions.

PROJECT CREATION WITH PRINTELLECT(TM)
The PrIntellect tab provides questions for the novice user. Information supplied
on PrIntellect tab automatically populates default settings on the process tabs.
The questions and answers displayed on the PrIntellect tab and the default
information supplied in the process tabs are specified/configured by the site
owner. More advance buyers can specify their own requirements in the process
tabs: Prepress, Press, Postpress, and Shipping. Completion of the Prepress,
Press, Postpress and Shipping tabs are optional.

ABILITY TO SPECIFY PREPRESS MATERIALS AND PROCESSES
On the prepress tab, the print buyer can choose specific material, processes,
source platform, and storage medium. Based on the material type selected,
additional specific questions are asked. Under the notes field, specific
instructions for the job can be entered.

fABILITY TO SPECIFY PRESS MATERIALS AND PROCESSES
The press tab allows the definition of printing methods available (offset,
gravure, flexo etc.), inline operations (embossing, gluing, numbering,
perforating, imprinting, and die cutting), paper specifications (basis weight,
brand, roll width, sheet size etc), and ink specifications (including on screen
PMS color matching system). Impositions used by the printer are also displayed
on this tab.

ABILITY TO SPECIFY POSTPRESS PROCESSING
Specifications defined on the Postpress tab include binding method (if
applicable), offline coating options, special operations (trimming, tipping, or
stamping), folding configurations, and inline operations (polybagging, ink
jetting, etc.). Under the notes field, specific postpress instructions can be
specified.

ABILITY TO SPECIFY SHIPPING METHOD
Bulk shipping, zip code or distribution type can be specified on the shipping
tab

                                       1
<PAGE>

ON-LINE REVIEW AND APPROVALS
Buyers can specify who from their company needs to review and/or approve the
project during each phase. This functionality is expected to be available by
October 15, 2000.

SUMMARY OF PROJECT INFORMATION
The summary tab provides a summary of the project information including
PrIntellect, prepress, press, postpress, and shipping information.

GENERATE MULTIPLE COMPONENTS/VERSIONS
Components represent parts within a project that are produced individually and
then combined together to make a finished project shipped out to a customer. A
user may create an unlimited quantity of components within one project. A
version represents a unique kit comprised of components sequenced in a specific
order. The user may create numerous versions within a project. This
functionality is expected to be available by October 15, 2000.

CREATE REVISIONS
Revisions can be created for projects whenever a specific change within the
project needs to be tracked. Buyers may activate previous revisions. Printers
may create revisions of project when responding to quotes but the buyer must
agree to that revision in order to activate it.

ABILITY TO COMPARE PROJECT REVISIONS
Any two revisions of a project can be compared side by side on the revisions
tab. This line-by-line comparison helps identify what information has changed.

MANAGE PROJECTS
Projects are managed using a project tree control. From this control, projects
can be created and organized, RFQ's can be generated, templates (of commonly
used projects) can be created, and orders can be placed.

REAL-TIME COMMUNICATION BETWEEN BUYERS AND PRINTERS WITH SIMULSPEC(TM)
SimulSpec creates a collaborative work environment that allows printers and
buyers to see print designs and specifications in a real-time. This is Web-based
browser sharing technology that helps printers guide novice buyers through the
design and specification process. This feature is expected to be delivered in
the fourth quarter of 2000.

CREATE A REQUEST FOR QUOTE ("RFQ")
RFQ's can be submitted online. RFQ's are submitted to either the printer whose
site the buyer is logged in to, or to a selected vendor(s) from a buyer's site.
From a buyer's site, the vendor list can be fine-tuned by utilizing search
criteria such as: years in business, average press run length, annual sales
volume, in state, and ISO certification. Vendors and vendor information
available on a buyer's site is specified by the buyer. Search criteria can also
be customized on the buyer's site.

                                       2
<PAGE>

SUBMIT QUOTES
Printers/suppliers can submit quotes that include quote amount, sales tax, and
price per additional thousand. The system then automatically calculates the
total quote amount. The printer can submit up to five different quotes per RFQ
with an unlimited quantity of line item details for each quote. Printer can also
create line items with zero quantity for speculative items.

REVIEW QUOTES AND PLACE ORDERS
When reviewing quotes, the buyer can review individual quotes for each printer
and/or compare quotes from all printers.

TRACK JOB STATUS
Projects can be tracked by both printers and buyers. The status information is
entered manually or, once printCafe Pro is available, can be automatically
populated by the printer's ERP system.

INTEGRATION WITH ERP PLATFORM SYSTEMS (FOR PRINTCAFE UNLIMITED AND PRINTCAFE
PRO)
printCafe Pro Service is designed to integrate with certain ERP platform
systems, including Hagen OA(TM), Logic Management System, Programmed Solutions
Management System and Prograph Management System. These enterprise software
applications are designed to manage certain stages of the print production
process, including:

         Pre-press
         Printing and post-press
         Create detailed job instructions
         Schedule all stages of print production from pre-press to mailing
         Collect real-time data to integrate bindery
         Create timely detailed job cost analyses
         Create status reports and invoices

          PRINTCAFE PCX(TM) (FOR PRINTCAFE UNLIMITED AND PRINTCAFE PRO)

printCafe PCX is an integration specification for interfacing external systems
and services with printCafe's e-commerce software.

valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the Borrower and the Lender agree as follows:

         1. Definitions. "IPO" shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in

Borrower's IPO, the Borrower shall pay the Lender the following amounts in full
