(j) Exclusivity. NSI grants DISTRIBUTOR the Exclusive right (“Exclusivity”) to sell the Licensed
Software in Europe and the United Kingdom (“Exclusive Territory”). This Exclusivity does not
pertain to any agreements that are in existence as of May 23, 2006 or any worldwide agreements NSI
may execute subsequent to May 23, 2006 with any third party product vendor or worldwide corporate
agreements. This Exclusivity is based on the following terms and conditions:

	 	(i)	 	The DISTRIBUTOR’s 2007 annual goal for the calendar year ending December 31, 2007 for
the Territory is $13,390,000 in new licenses to be ordered on the following dates:

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Q1, 2007
	 	on or before March 31, 2007	 	$	2,730,000

	2007 Total
	 	 	 	$	13,390,000	 

	 	(ii)	 	Note that the new license order targets are based on the assumption that NSI growth
in Non-EMEA regions will be budgeted in 2007 at 30% growth. If the final budget for NSI
for non-EMEA regions is different than 30%, the actual new license targets for DISTRIBUTOR
will be adjusted accordingly. This adjustment could result in the actual targets being
either higher or lower than those listed above.
	 
	 	(iii)	 	License Fee Payments: Payments to NSI for Licenses are to be made in three equal
monthly installments as follows:

	 	(iv)	 	Note: Payments must be received by NSI in its bank account by the due date and may
not be more than 15 days prior to the due date.
	 
	 	(v)	 	Maintenance Payments: Payments for annual maintenance renewals shall be paid within
30 days of the individual renewal orders.
	 
	 	(vi)	 	NSI currently has OEM Agreements with Lakeview Technology, Inc., Hewlett Packard, and
Vision Solutions. Sales by these OEM partners to customers in Europe and the UK are
permitted and do not violate DISTRIBUTOR’S exclusivity. However, NSI also has other types
of worldwide agreements. In the event NSI executes additional worldwide OEM Agreements,
NSI will initiate discussions with DISTRIBUTOR to review any pertinent, non-confidential
details, and establish mutually agreeable guidelines under this Agreement. In the event
that NSI establishes an OEM relationship with VMWare that allows VMWare to distribute NSI
products, DISTRIBUTOR will get credit for licenses that are sold into DISTRIBUTOR’S
exclusive territory.
	 
	 	(vii)	 	Rebate: DISTRIBUTOR will be eligible to receive a rebate if it meets its quarterly
goals for new license purchases from NSI. Those goals are:

	 	 	 	 	 
	Q2 2006
	 	$	2,300,000	 
	Q3 2006
	 	$	2,700,000	 
	Q4 2006
	 	$	3,200,000	 
	Q1 2007
	 	$	2,730,000	 
	Q2 2007
	 	$	3,000,000	 
	Q3 2007
	 	$	3,500,000	 
	Q4 2007
	 	$	4,160,000	 

	 	(viii)	 	The rebate will be calculated as follows: If DISTRIBUTOR does not purchase new licenses
of at least 87.5% of the quarterly goal, no rebate will be paid. If
DISTRIBUTOR purchases new licenses that total 87.5% to 93.49% of the quarterly goal,
the rebate will be 5% of NSI’s list price for the licenses purchased. If DISTRIBUTOR
purchases new licenses that total 93.49% to 99.99% of the

			
	 	 	 
	COMPANY                    
	 	DISTRIBUTOR

	 	 	 	quarterly goal, the rebate
will be 7.5% of NSI’s list price for the licenses purchased. If DISTRIBUTOR purchases
new licenses that toal 100% or more of the quarterly goal, the rebate will be 10% of
NSI’s list price for the licenses purchased. The rebate will be paid by credit note
issued to DISTRIBUTOR within 45 days of the end of the quarter in which the licenses
were purchased.
	 
	 	(ix)	 	NSI may enter into worldwide agreements in which NSI may request, at NSI’s sole
discretion, DISTRIBUTOR to provide technical support in the Exclusive Territory. For any
such worldwide agreement NSI enters into subsequent to May 23, 2006, NSI agrees to pay
DISTRIBUTOR 5% of the then current NSI list price for each license that DISTRIBUTOR
provides technical support for during the initial year of the license. Such fee shall not
be added to the Aggregate Dollar Value as such these monies shall not qualify for
Marketing Development Funds, Marketing Rebate, or be applied to the annual goal for any
calendar year. Payment by NSI shall be made quarterly after NSI has received payment in
full from the worldwide agreement for such sales.

Ordering Period, derived from commitments, estimates, marketing plans and other information
provided by the DISTRIBUTOR, and from criteria established by NSI including (if applicable)
DISTRIBUTOR’s purchases in prior periods. Discounts granted at the agreed Discount Level are not
subject to bill back or retroactive adjustment because of DISTRIBUTOR’s failure to achieve the
Aggregate Dollar Value associated with the agreed Discount Level. For purposes of this Agreement,
Aggregate Dollar shall mean total sales out at the discounted price DISTRIBUTOR pays to NSI in a
timely manner. This shall include re-licensing of Software to End Users, renewal of annual
maintenance licenses; selling of pass through training; selling of packaged services. It does not
include Licenses that have been bought and placed in Inventory (“Stocking Orders”) or Time and
Material Services. When a license that was placed in inventory (from a Stocking Order) gets
re-licensed to an End User, it then becomes sales out and goes into the Aggregate Dollar Total.
Stocking orders will not be counted as Aggregate Dollar Value or towards the Marketing Development
Fund until DISTRIBUTOR ships the software to its Customer.

8. Payment Terms.

(a) DISTRIBUTOR shall pay the fees and charges and on the terms and conditions set forth in
Schedule B attached hereto. NSI reserves the right to change payment and credit terms at any time.

(b) Changes. NSI may change such prices, terms and conditions from time to time in its discretion
without prior written notice to DISTRIBUTOR. In the event NSI raises a price and DISTRIBUTOR shows,
within 30 days of such increase, that it had a pending quote to an end user customer at the lower
price as of the date of such increase, then NSI shall honor the lower price for such prospective
sale for a period of sixty (60) days from the date of price increase.

(c) Payment of Invoices. DISTRIBUTOR shall submit payments to:

Information shall not include any information which has been publicly disseminated in writing by
NSI, which DISTRIBUTOR can show it knew prior to NSI’s disclosure, or which was rightfully received
by DISTRIBUTOR from a third party without restriction.

During the term hereof and at all times thereafter, DISTRIBUTOR shall maintain the Confidential

only as necessary to perform hereunder. DISTRIBUTOR shall cause each of its officers, directors,
employees, and agents to restrict disclosure and use of such Confidential Information in like
fashion, and shall be responsible for any wrongful disclosure and use by any of them. In no event
shall DISTRIBUTOR disassemble, decompile, reverse engineer or reverse code the Licensed Software,
or attempt to do same directly or indirectly.

In the event any court or other authority orders DISTRIBUTOR to disclose any Confidential
Information, DISTRIBUTOR shall use its best efforts to protect its confidentiality and shall
forthwith notify NSI thereof to enable it to seek to do so. At the termination of this Agreement,
DISTRIBUTOR shall promptly return all tangible Confidential Information to NSI.

and shall be pursuant to any trademark usage rules or formats as may be supplied by NSI from time
to time. DISTRIBUTOR acknowledges that NSI is the exclusive owner of the Marks used by NSI for its

competing rights to such Marks.

licenses whatsoever for the source code to the Licensed Software or any part thereof are granted by

express terms of this Agreement or by any course of conduct, to use, review or access the source
code for the Licensed Software.

(c) Software Rights. VAR acknowledges and agrees that NSI owns all rights in the Licensed Software
including but not limited to all copyright, trade secret, and patent rights. VAR also acknowledges

therein to the VAR.

(d) Addition of Other Programs. The parties may add other programs to Schedule A from time to time

its request. NSI reserves the right to review and approve all uses of NSI’s trademarks, service

from time to time at its discretion.

(d) Updates and Upgrades. NSI shall use reasonable efforts to notify VAR prior to the introduction
of any update or upgrade of the Licensed Software for distribution to the general public and shall
make such update and upgrade available to VAR concurrently with its distribution through like
situated VARs. NSI reserves the right to decide, in its

4

 

sole discretion, whether to make an update or upgrade available at no additional charge or as a
separately-priced item.

(e) Not for Resale Licensed Demonstration Software. NSI shall provide VAR with two (2) copies of
each product marked Not for Resale Software (NFR), which can be used by VAR to Demonstrate the
Product per terms of Schedule E. Such software shall not be left at a customer site. Any

all steps necessary to fully safeguard all NSI proprietary rights in the Licensed Software and NFR
contained in the demonstration version, including but not limited to all NSI, trademarks,
copyrights, IP rights and confidentiality rights in the Licensed Software.

(f) Evaluation Licensed Software. Upon request and mutual agreement, NSI shall provide VAR with
one (1) evaluation copy of the Licensed Software per terms of Schedule E. Each evaluation version
is designed to expire at a certain point. NSI grants VAR a nonexclusive, nontransferable right
and license to use such solely for purposes of i) demonstration to the applicable Customer, and ii)
testing, supporting and evaluating to determine conformance to the requirements. VAR is solely and
fully responsible for keeping any recipient of the evaluation version from mistakenly believing
they received a full production version of the Licensed Software. VAR must take all steps
necessary to fully safeguard all NSI proprietary rights in the Licensed Software contained in the
demonstration version, including but not limited to all NSI trademarks, copyrights, IP rights and
confidentiality rights in the Licensed Software. NSI shall not provide technical support for such
Software. Any support provided is subject to the standard fees or charges NSI charges for such
services. Such support and fees are listed in schedule B of this Agreement.

(g) Field Marketing Manager. NSI shall assign a Field Marketing Manager to assist VAR with
execution of the agreed upon Marketing Plan.

(h) Partner Certification. NSI shall offer a Partner Certification Program, which is intended to
ensure that the VAR maintain a high level of expertise in NSI’s products.

6. Orders, Delivery and Acceptance

(a) Orders. VAR shall order Licensed Software from NSI using such procedures and minimum order
requirements as NSI may prescribe from time to time. All orders shall be subject to acceptance and
approval by NSI in its discretion. All orders shall be governed by the terms and conditions of this
Agreement notwithstanding any contrary preprinted terms of any other document.

(b) Delivery. All orders are shipped F.O.B. NSI’s premises. NSI shall use best efforts to
ship orders within 14 days after acceptance, subject to availability.

5

 

(c) Costs. VAR shall pay all shipping and transportation charges, customs duties and similar
charges, and other taxes and fees imposed on Licensed Software purchases and sales hereunder. In
the event NSI pays such amounts, VAR shall reimburse NSI and they shall be added to the invoiced
amounts as separate charges.

(d) Acceptance.

(i) Software Acceptance. VAR represents that it fully examined and tested the Licensed Software
in connection with VAR’s plans to distribute the Licensed Software as set forth in this Agreement.
VAR acknowledges that the Licensed Software is fully acceptable to VAR.

(ii) Defective Units. NSI will replace or repair any Product Package shipped to VAR that is
defective, provided that VAR notifies NSI of each such defective Product Package within three (3)
months after shipment. VAR shall pay freight charges for the return of the defective Product
Package to NSI. NSI shall prepay the freight charges on the return shipment to VAR. A “defective”
Product Package, for the purpose of this paragraph, means one, which fails to conform to the
limited warranty attached as Schedule “D”. In no event shall NSI be responsible for any claim,
loss, or consequential damages resulting from any defective product.

7. Discount Terms.

(a) Discount Level. An initial Discount Level, as stated in Schedule B, is to be fixed by mutual
agreement, based on a predicted Aggregate Dollar Value of VAR’s purchases within the first Ordering
Period, derived from commitments, estimates, marketing plans and other information provided by the
VAR, and from criteria established by NSI including (if applicable) VAR’s purchases in prior
periods. Discounts granted at the agreed Discount Level are not subject to bill back or
retroactive adjustment because of VAR’s failure to achieve the Aggregate Dollar Value associated
with the agreed Discount Level. Aggregate Dollar Value means the total dollar value (U.S.) of
Licensed Software, Annual Maintenance Contracts, Pass Thru Training, and Packaged Services ordered
by VAR and paid for in a timely manner. Stocking orders will not be counted as Aggregate Dollar
Value or towards the Marketing Rebate or Marketing Development Fund until VAR ships the software to
its Customer.

8. Payment Terms.

(a) VAR shall pay the fees and charges and on the terms and conditions set forth in Schedule B
attached hereto. NSI reserves the right to change payment and credit terms at any time.

(b) Changes. NSI may change such prices, terms and conditions from time to time in its discretion
without prior written notice to VAR. In the event NSI raises a price and VAR shows, within 30 days
of such increase, that it had a pending quote to an end user customer at the lower price as of the
date of such increase, then NSI shall honor the lower

6

 

price for such prospective sale for a period of sixty (60) days from the date of price increase.

(c) Payment of Invoices. VAR shall submit payments to:

Hoboken, NJ 07030

8. Warranties.

(a) Limited Warranty. NSI makes no representation, warranty, or guaranty, express or implied
regarding the Licensed Software except its standard form of limited warranty (“Warranty”), the
current form of which is attached as Schedule “D” hereto. NSI may in its sole discretion modify its
Warranty at any time and from time to time.

(b) DISCLAIMER. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN WRITING IN THIS AGREEMENT, NSI MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS,
WARRANTIES, OR GUARANTEES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ORAL OR WRITTEN, TO VAR OR ANY VAR CUSTOMER,
WITH RESPECT TO THE LICENSED SOFTWARE AND ANY SERVICES COVERED BY OR FURNISHED PURSUANT TO THIS
AGREEMENT, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY (A) OF MERCHANTABILITY, (B) OF FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR (C) ARISING FROM COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING, OR USAGE OF
TRADE. VAR AND ITS CUSTOMERS RECEIVE ALL SOFTWARE AND OTHER MATERIALS HEREUNDER “AS IS”. VAR AND
ITS CUSTOMERS ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SELECTION OF THE LICENSED SOFTWARE TO ACHIEVE THEIR
INTENDED RESULTS AND FOR THE RESULTS ACTUALLY OBTAINED.

9. NSI’s Intellectual Property.

(a) Confidentiality. As used herein, “Confidential Information” shall mean all information
concerning NSI or any Affiliate of NSI to which VAR is provided access by virtue of this Agreement
or its activities hereunder, including without limitation technical data, product design and
development, source code and source code documentation, business operations and plans, sales
information, quantity and kind of Software Licenses sold, prices and methods of pricing, marketing
techniques and plans, unannounced products, product and process information, and any other
information which, if disclosed to others, might be competitively detrimental to NSI. Confidential
Information shall not include any information which has been publicly disseminated in writing by
NSI, which VAR can show it knew prior to NSI’s disclosure, or which was rightfully received by VAR
from a third party without restriction.

7

 

During the term hereof and at all times thereafter, VAR shall maintain the Confidential Information
in strictest confidence, shall not disclose it to any third party, and shall use it only as
necessary to perform hereunder. VAR shall cause each of its officers, directors, employees, and
agents to restrict disclosure and use of such Confidential Information in like fashion, and shall
be responsible for any wrongful disclosure and use by any of them. In no event shall VAR
disassemble, decompile, reverse engineer or reverse code the Licensed Software, or attempt to do
same directly or indirectly.

In the event any court or other authority orders VAR to disclose any Confidential Information, VAR
shall use its best efforts to protect its confidentiality and shall forthwith notify NSI thereof to
enable it to seek to do so. At the termination of this Agreement, VAR shall promptly return all
tangible Confidential Information to NSI.

(b) Limited Rights. VAR shall not acquire any right to any trade names, service marks or
trademarks used by NSI or any affiliates (collectively “Marks”), or the copyrights, patent rights,
commercial symbols, trade secrets, goodwill, or any other form of intellectual or commercial
property of NSI or any affiliates and shall not use such Marks, property or rights in any manner,
except as herein permitted. All VAR usage of the Marks (including, but not limited to, materials)
shall be subject to NSI’s review and approval as to proper usage and product quality, and shall be
pursuant to any trademark usage rules or formats as may be supplied by NSI from time to time. VAR
acknowledges that NSI is the exclusive owner of the Marks used by NSI for its Licensed Software and
