                    all units of the Licensed Product for which royalties
                    accrued during such fiscal quarter by product type; and (b)
                    the total amount of the royalties payable to HelloSoft. The
                    report shall be accompanied by the payment of the royalties
                    accrued during the quarter.

               4.2  AUDIT For a period of three (3) years after each payment of
                    royalties, Licensee will maintain such accurate books and
                    records relating to Licensee's performance under this
                    Agreement as will be sufficient to confirm Licensee's proper
                    payment of such royalties due under this Agreement and
                    compliance with Sections 2.1 through 2.2. Licensee will be
                    responsible for reporting and payment to HelloSoft for all
                    Licensed Product, by product type, shipped by it or any of
                    its Affiliates, or on their behalf. Licensee will permit a
                    nationally known, independent accounting firm reasonably
                    acceptable to Licensee, under a confidentiality agreement
                    with Licensee, to audit such books and records as may
                    reasonably be required to verify proper payment of royalties
                    due under this Agreement and compliance with Sections 2.1
                    through 2.2, at such times as HelloSoft may reasonably
                    request, upon reasonable written notice. All such records of
                    Licensee will be considered Licensee's Confidential
                    Information. The accounting firm shall provide to HelloSoft
                    only such information as is necessary to calculate the
                    amount of royalties due hereunder and verify compliance with
                    Sections 2.1 through 2.2, and shall provide Licensee with a
                    copy of any report or written document provided to HelloSoft
                    in connection with such audit. Licensee agrees to provide,
                    and agrees to cause its Affiliates to provide, reasonable
                    assistance, without charge, to the independent accounting
                    firm in conducting the audit. HelloSoft will pay the cost of
                    audits unless any audit reveals that Licensee has underpaid
                    royalties by more than seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of
                    the royalties owed, in which case Licensee will bear all
                    expenses reasonably incurred by HelloSoft in connection with
                    the audit. Audits will not unreasonably interfere with
                    Licensee's business activities. Unless an audit reveals an
                    underpayment of more than seven and one-half percent (7.5%)
                    of the royalties owed, Licensee and its Affiliates will not
                    be required to submit to any audit more than once during any
                    twelve (12) month period.

          5.   MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT

                    time, and Licensee will ensure that its Affiliates will not
                    at any time, directly or indirectly, oppose the grant of,

          8.   INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

               8.1. HELLOSOFT INDEMNIFICATION HelloSoft agrees to defend or
                    settle at HelloSoft's own expense and under HelloSoft's sole
                    control any claim, suit or proceeding brought by a third
                    party against Licensee or an Affiliate of Licensee to the
                    extent that such claim, suit or proceeding is based upon any
                    claim of intellectual property infringement with respect to
                    Licensed Technology, subject to the limitations herein.
                    HelloSoft will be relieved of the foregoing obligations

                    If the Licensed Technology, or any part thereof, is finally
                    adjudicated to be, or in HelloSoft's opinion may become, the

                    any patent, copyright, trade secret, or other intellectual
                    property rights of a third party, or if the distribution or
                    use of the Licensed Product, or any part thereof, is
                    enjoined, then HelloSoft will, at HelloSoft's option and
                    expense: (i) procure for Licensee and its Affiliates and
                    Customers the right to distribute and/or use the Licensed
                    Product under such proprietary rights; or (ii) suitably
                    modify the Licensed Technology while maintaining
                    functionality and performance equivalent to the Licensed
                    Technology originally delivered hereunder, or (iii) refund
                    the license fees paid therefor by Licensee upon Licensee's
                    return of all materials related to the Licensed Technology.
                    HelloSoft will not be liable for any costs or expense
                    incurred by Licensee in connection with the claim, suit or
                    proceeding without HelloSoft's prior written authorization,
                    such authorization not to be unreasonably withheld.
                    HelloSoft assumes no liability in connection with, arising
                    from or resulting from:: (x) any combination of the Licensed
                    Technology with other technology or products if such
                    liability would not have arisen but for the combination; or
                    (y) any modification of the Licensed Technology or
                    Documentation, unless such modification was made by
                    HelloSoft pursuant to specifications and designs drafted by
                    HelloSoft, if such liability would not have arisen but for
                    such modification.

               8.2. LICENSEE INDEMNITY Licensee agrees to indemnify and hold
                    HelloSoft harmless and to defend and settle at Licensee's

                    arising out of a cause set forth in Section 8.1 (x) or (y).
                    Licensee will be relieved of the foregoing obligations
                    unless HelloSoft (i) notifies Licensee promptly in writing
                    of such claim, suit or proceeding, and (ii) gives Licensee
                    information and assistance with respect to any such claim,
                    suit or proceeding. Licensee will not enter into a
                    settlement agreement without HelloSoft's prior written
                    consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

          9.   CONFIDENTIALITY

               9.1. RESTRICTIONS Each party (i) agrees not to disclose
                    Confidential Information given to it by the other party to
                    any person, real or legal (including, without limitation,
                    the receiving party's employees), except as necessary for
                    the other party to perform its obligations and/or exercise
                    its rights under this Agreement or as required by court
                    order; (ii) will require its employees having access to
                    Confidential Information and any third party to whom
                    disclosure of Confidential Information is permitted and
                    necessary hereunder to sign or already have signed a
                    confidentiality agreement containing provisions
                    substantially similar to this Agreement; (iii) will exercise
                    the same degree of care to safeguard the confidentiality of
                    such Confidential Information as it would exercise in
                    protecting the confidentiality of similar property of its
                    own (but in no event less than is standard in the industry);
                    (iv) agrees to use its diligent efforts to prevent
                    inadvertent or unauthorized disclosure, publication or
                    dissemination of any Confidential Information; and (v)
                    agrees not to use the Confidential Information for any
                    purpose not authorized hereunder. Confidential Information
                    will be maintained in confidence for a period of five (5)
                    years from the date of disclosure, except the Confidential
                    Information of HelloSoft incorporated into the Deliverables
                    which will be maintained in confidence in perpetuity. Upon
                    termination of this Agreement, each party will promptly
                    deliver to the other party all Confidential Information
                    provided by that party during the term of this Agreement.
                    Licensee and HelloSoft will each be entitled to such
                    remedies as may be available against the other under the
                    applicable law for any loss or damage the other may sustain
                    as a result of the wrongful use or disclosure by the other
                    party (or any employees, contractors, or permitted assignees
                    of the other party or Licensee's Affiliate) of its
                    Confidential Information.

               9.2. UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURES Each party will notify the other of
                    any actual or suspected unauthorized use or disclosure of
                    Confidential Information or infringement of any Confidential
                    Information of which such party has knowledge, and will
                    reasonably cooperate with the other party in the
                    investigation and prosecution of such unauthorized use,
                    disclosure, or infringement. In the event of unauthorized
                    use of confidential information by a party of this
                    agreement, such party will take all reasonable steps to
                    mitigate the harm resulting from such use or disclosure.

               9.3. RELEASE TO LICENSEE'S CUSTOMERS The parties will mutually
                    agree upon a subset of the Confidential Information which
                    may be disclosed to Licensee's customers, and used by such
                    customers, for the sole purpose of helping such customers
                    design Licensed Product into their end products, provided
                    that: (a) such disclosure is subject to the terms and
                    conditions set forth in ss.9.1 and ss.9.2; and (b)
                    Licensee's customers will have no right to copy (except as
                    necessary for customers to carry out such design),
                    distribute or further disclose such Confidential
                    Information. Licensee will require all such customers to
                    execute written confidentiality agreements with Licensee
                    that, without limitation, contain the foregoing terms and
                    conditions, and impose on such customers the obligations and
                    restrictions imposed on Licensee in this ss.9, and designate
                    Hellosoft as a third-party beneficiary of such customer
                    obligations.

          10.  TERM AND TERMINATION

               10.1. TERM This Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and
                    continue for a four (4)- year term unless the Agreement is
                    terminated earlier under the provisions of this ss.10 (the
                    "Term"). In the event of termination of this Agreement due
                    to expiry of the Term, Licensee shall have the right in
                    perpetuity to continue shipping and supporting those USES of
                    the Licensed Product as to which the License Fees per
                    Exhibit C had been paid to HelloSoft prior to the time of
                    termination due to expiry of the Term, subject to the
                    Licensee continuing to comply with ss.3, ss.4 and ss.9,
                    including the reporting and payment of royalties and
                    continuing in perpetuity to maintain in confidence the
                    Confidential Information of Hellosoft incorporated into the
                    Deliverables.

               10.2. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE If either party defaults in the
                    performance of any material provision of this Agreement,
                    then the non-defaulting party shall give written notice to
                    the defaulting party that if the default is not cured within
                    thirty (30) days, (or, if it cannot be cured in that time,
                    the party has not commenced remedial procedures reasonably
                    satisfactory to the non-breaching party), then the Agreement
                    will automatically terminate at the end of such period. Any
                    breach of the provisions in ss.9 will be considered
                    breaches, which cannot be cured and may be the basis for the
                    immediate termination of this Agreement.

               10.3. EFFECT OF TERMINATION FOR CAUSE In the event this Agreement
                    is terminated pursuant to ss.10.2 due to Licensee's breach,
                    all rights granted to Licensee with respect to the Licensed
                    Technology, which had been granted pursuant to this
                    Agreement, will then be terminated.

               10.4. SURVIVAL The provisions of ss.ss.1, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11
                    will survive any termination of this Agreement.

               10.5. ACCELERATION OF PAYMENTS In the event that this Agreement
                    is terminated, the payment date of all payments that already
                    have accrued will be accelerated and such payments will
                    become immediately due and payable as of the date of
                    termination.

               10.6. TERMINATION NOT EXCLUSIVE REMEDY Except as expressly
                    limited by this Agreement, termination of this Agreement
                    will be without prejudice to any other remedy which may be
                    available to a party due to default of this Agreement.
                    Violation of obligations under this Agreement may cause
                    irreparable harm and damage, which may not be recovered at
                    law, and remedies for breach of this Agreement may be
                    awarded in equity through injunctive relief by any court of
                    competent jurisdiction.

          11.  MISCELLANEOUS

               11.1. RELATIONSHIP The relationship between the parties will be
                    that of independent contractors. Nothing contained herein
                    will be construed to imply a joint venture, principal or
                    agent relationship, or other joint relationship, and neither
                    party will have the rights, power or authority to create any
                    obligation, express or implied, on behalf of the other.

               11.2. GOVERNING LAW This Agreement shall be governed in all
                    respects by the substantive laws of the State of California,
                    United States of America, exclusive of its conflict of laws
                    rules, as applied to agreements entered into in California
                    between California residents. The parties specifically agree
                    that the provisions of the United Nations Convention on the
                    International Sales of Goods are excluded.

               11.3. ARBITRATION In the event of any dispute under this
                    Agreement, the parties expressly agree to submit the
                    grievance to binding arbitration, provided that Hellosoft
                    may also seek equitable relief to protect its Intellectual
                    Property from any court of competent jurisdiction, in
                    addition to or in lieu of arbitration. A single arbitrator
                    experienced in technology license agreements who is mutually
                    acceptable to both parties shall hold the arbitration. The
                    decision of the arbitrator shall be binding upon the
                    parties. The arbitrator shall apply California Law. The
                    arbitration will be conducted in Santa Clara County,
                    California. Both parties shall share the fees of the
                    arbitrator equally. Any award rendered by the arbitrator may
                    be entered for enforcement, if necessary, in any court of
                    competent jurisdiction, the party against whom enforcement
                    is sought bearing the costs and expenses, including
                    attorney's fees, related to such entry and enforcement.

               11.4. WAIVER Failure by any party to enforce any of its rights
                    under this Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of any
                    right which that party has under this Agreement.

               11.5. SEVERABILITY Should any provisions of this Agreement
                    contravene any law or valid regulation of any government
                    having jurisdiction over the parties, then such provision
                    will be automatically terminated and performance thereof by
                    the parties waived, and all other provisions of this
                    Agreement will continue in full force and effect.

               11.6. ASSIGNMENT Licensee may not sell, transfer, assign or
                    subcontract any right or obligation under this Agreement
                    without the prior written consent of HelloSoft, which
                    consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

               11.7. PUBLICITY The parties may (with mutual consent) issue a
                    joint press release or information to the general public
                    regarding this Agreement. Before such joint press release,

                    Agreement. At all times the licensing details and fees
                    involved in this Agreement will remain confidential.
                    Notwithstanding the restrictions of Section 9, the parties
                    may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the license
                    rights granted hereunder, but no other terms and conditions
                    hereof, solely for purposes of marketing and selling their
                    own respective products.
