                                AMENDMENT NO. 2

THIS AMENDMENT NO. 2 (the or this "Amendment") is entered into effective as of 1
June 2000, between Corio Corporation ("Customer") and Concentric Network
Corporation ("Concentric").

        WHEREAS, Customer and Concentric are parties to an Agreement dated 29
January 1999, as amended by the parties thereto, most recently pursuant to
Amendment No. 1 dated 23 August 1999 ("Amendment 1"). The Agreement dated 29
January 1999, as amended by Amendment 1 is herein referred to as the
"Agreement".

        WHEREAS, Customer and Concentric desire to amend the Agreement to, among
other things, revise pricing and do away with any exclusivity obligations of
Customer,

        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions
in this Amendment, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as
follows:

        1.  Services. Section 1.0 of the Agreement, Services, is hereby deleted
            in its entirety and replaced by the following new subsections:

                Subsection 1.1: "Subject to the terms and condition of this
                Agreement, during the term of this Agreement, Concentric will
                provide to Customer the goods and services (collectively, the
                "Services") as described in the Statement of Work, attached
                hereto, as Exhibit B-1."

                Subsection 1.2, "Subject to the terms and conditions of this
                Agreement and payment of the Option Space fees set forth in
                Exhibit A-1, Concentric grants Customer the first right of
                refusal to have Concentric convert raw data center space
                ("Option Space") into Reserve Space (as defined in Section 1.2)
                for its sole use and occupancy. During the Term of this
                Agreement, at its sole discretion, Customer may determine if and
                when it would like Concentric to convert some or all of its
                Option Space into Reserve Space. Customer and Concentric agree
                that Concentric will not begin to convert the Option Space into
                Reserve Space ("Option Space Conversion") unless the order to
                begin such conversion is issued by Customer in writing and is
                for the build-out in lots of at least 300 square feet each of
                Option Space. Concentric agrees, upon receiving such written
                notification, to use best commercial efforts to complete the
                Option Space Conversion within 120 days. During the time that
                the Option Space Conversion is taking place, Customer shall
                continue to pay the Option Space fees set forth in Exhibit A-1.

                During the term of this Agreement, should Concentric require
                such Option Space in order to either (a) fulfill other specific
                customer obligations; or, (b) continue to expand customer-ready
                space contiguous with other customer-ready space in order to
                meet projected business requirements, Concentric must notify
                Customer in writing of its intent to offer the Option Space to
                another customer. Upon Customer request, Concentric will provide
                reasonable justification for such requirement. Customer shall
                have 10 days from the date of such notification in which to
                exercise its option to have Concentric begin the Option Space
                Conversion. If after 10 days, Concentric has not received
                written notice from Customer of its desire to begin the Option
                Space Conversion, Concentric can terminate Customer's option on
                such Option Space, and is free to utilize the space to fulfill
                other customer obligations.

                Should during the term of this Agreement, Customer release
                Concentric from its obligations regarding some or all of its
                Option Space, Customer must do so in writing and in contiguous
                lots of at least 300 square feet. Upon providing written
                notification of such release of Option Space, Customer will no
                longer be liable for the Option Space fees for such space as set
                forth in Exhibit A-1."

                Subsection 1.3, "Upon completing the installation of all of the
                following into the hitherto Option Space: i) air conditioning,
                ii) commercial power, iii) generator, iv) un-interruptable power
                supply, v) power panels and circuits, vi) cage or walls to
                secure space, vii) FM 200 fire suppression system and, viii)
                security systems; and subject to payment of the Reserve Space
                fees set forth in Exhibit A-1 beginning upon completion, such
                data center space shall be reserved solely for the use and
                occupancy of Customer ("Reserve Space"), and shall not be
                offered to other customers. During the Term of this Agreement,
                at its sole discretion, Customer may determine if and when it
                would like Concentric to convert some or all of its Reserve
                Space into Active Space. Customer and Concentric agree that
                Concentric will not begin to convert the Reserve Space into
                Active Space ("Reserve Space Conversion") unless the order to
                begin such conversion is issued by Customer in writing and is
                for the build-out of lots of at least 300 square feet of Reserve
                Space. Concentric agrees, upon receiving such written
                notification, to use best commercial efforts to complete the
                Reserve Space Conversion within 30 days. During the time that
                the Reserve Space Conversion is taking place, Customer shall
                continue to pay the Reserve Space fees set forth in Exhibit A-1.

                If, after notifying Concentric in writing of its desire to begin
                Option Space Conversion, Customer elects to cancel its planned
                usage of some or all of such space, then Customer shall provide
                written notice of such cancellation in lots of contiguous space
                of at least 300 square feet. If written cancellation is received
                by Concentric later than fifteen (15) days from the date
                Concentric received written authorization to commence Option
                Space Conversion, then Customer agrees, upon such date of
                cancellation to pay Concentric and upon receipt of invoice, an
                amount equal to [*] Cancellations received less than fifteen
                (15) days from the date Concentric receives Customers written
                authorization to commence Option Space Conversion shall not be
                subject to any cancellation liability. Such cancelled Reserve
                Space shall not be designated Option Space and Concentric may
                utilize such space for its own requirements, provided, however,
                that Concentric, at its sole discretion, may offer such space
                back to Customer as Option Space.

                Subsection 1.4, "Upon completing the installation of all of the
                following into the hitherto Reserve Space (Reserve Space
                Conversion): i) network infrastructure, ii) racks that are ready
                to accept servers, iii) power hook-ups, iv) other
                "plug-and-play" preparations; and subject to payment of the
                Active Space fees set forth in Exhibit A-1 beginning upon
                completion, such data center space shall be reserved solely for
                the use and occupancy of Customer ("Active Space").

                If, after notifying Concentric in writing of its desire to begin
                Reserve Space Conversion and before such Reserve Space
                Conversion is complete, Customer elects to cancel its planned
                usage of such space and return such space to Reserve Space
                status, then Customer shall provide written notice of such
                cancellation in lots of contiguous space of at least 300 square
                feet. If such cancellation is received by Concentric fifteen
                (15) days or more from the date Concentric receives Customer's
                written authorization to commence Reserve Space Conversion,

                terms of the Agreement, provided however, that the Active Space
                must be used or billed as Active Space for a minimum of four (4)
                months without incurring any cancellation fees if Customer
                elects to downgrade such Active Space to Reserve Space."

                Subsection 1.5, "All space occupied by Customer as of the
                execution date of this Amendment shall be classified as Active
                Space. Customer's authorization to Concentric to create Option
                Space, to commence either Option Space Conversion or Reserve
                Space Conversion, or the cancellation of Option Space Conversion
                or Reserve Space Conversion, shall be effected by the issuance
                of a duly signed Order Form. Such Order Form shall specify the
                quantity and location of such space so affected." Billing
                reflective of any change in the status of space shall be
                effective on the date Concentric receives Customer's
                authorization regarding such space.

                Subsection 1.6, "Billing, reflective of the status of space,
                shall be effective as follows:

                -   Upgrading space

                  -     For Concentric raw space converted to Option Space,
                        billing commences on receipt of Customer's written
                        authorization.

                  -     For conversion of Option Space to Reserve Space, or
                        Reserve Space to Active Space, and upon completion of
                        the conversion, appropriate billing commences on the
                        sooner of (a) Customer's written acceptance of the
                        space, or (b) five (5) days after Concentric's written
                        notice to Customer of conversion completion.

                -   Downgrading space

                  -     If Customer elects to reduce Active Space, in lots of
                        contiguous space of at least 300 square feet, then such
                        space shall revert to Reserve Space, and appropriate
                        billing shall commence upon the completed vacating of
                        such space.

                  -     For cancellation of either Option Space Conversion or
                        Reserve Space Conversion, the appropriate billing would
                        commence on the date Concentric receives Customer's
                        written authorization of such cancellation.

                  -     For cancellation of Option Space initiated by Customer,
                        the billing of such space will cease upon written
                        receipt by Concentric of such cancellation. If
                        cancellation of Option Space occurs as a result of
                        Customer's election not to exercise its right of first
                        refusal, then billing for such space shall cease on the
                        earlier of (a) the date Concentric receives Customer's
                        written notice of its election not to exercise it's
                        right of first refusal, or, (b) ten (10) days after
                        Customer receives Concentric's request for such space.

                Subsection 1.7, "To the extent that Customer has non-contiguous
                Active Space (that is, Active Space not contiguous with other
                Active, Reserve, or Option Space), Customer may relocate its
                servers located in such non-contiguous Active Space to other
                contiguous Active Space (that is, Active Space contiguous with
                other Active, Reserve, or Option Space). Such relocation of
                servers shall be accomplished in accordance with Concentric
                guidelines and Concentric schedule restrictions, as well as with
                Concentric supervision. If Concentric is asked to relocate the
                servers, such efforts will be on a time and material basis. When
                the non-contiguous Active Space has been completely vacated,
                such space shall revert to Concentric space, and billing to the
                Customer shall reflect such reversion.

                Subsection 1.8, "From the date of this Amendment to the end of
                the year 2000, Customer shall grant Concentric the right to
                participate in any bid for Compaq servers or Cisco networking
                equipment required for Customer's utilization of the Space
                provided that Customer shall have no obligation whatsoever to
                use Concentric for the provision of these products."

        2.  Payment and Invoices. The second to last sentence of Section 3 of
            Amendment 1 is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:

                "In addition, the parties agree, on a semi-annual basis, to
                discuss pricing to insure such pricing is competitive in the
                market."

                All other provisions of that Section 3 shall remain the same.

        3.  Commitment. A new section 2.4 is hereby added to the Agreement, as
            follows:

                "In consideration for the elimination of the exclusivity clause
                in Section 1.0 of the Agreement, Customer agrees to pay to
                Concentric six million dollars ($6,000,000) between May 1, 2000
                and the end of calendar year 2002, with payments, after
                considering for any credits (explained below), to total at least
                the following per period:

                -   "Period 1" -- May 1, 2000 - December 31, 2000 -      $1.1M

                -   "Period 2" -- January 1, 2001 - December 31, 2001 -  $2.2M

                -   "Period 3" -- January 1, 2002 - December 31, 2002 -  $2.7M

                Pursuant to Section 3 regarding price adjustments, if Concentric
                lowers its fees in general to Customer for the Services provided
                herein, then the parties agree to discuss, in good faith, the
                affect of such changes on Customer's revenue commitment set
                forth above, for the purpose of possible adjustments to such
                commitments.

                For purpose of clarification, for any of the above three
                periods, if Customer's payments to Concentric (including (a) in
                the payments for Period 2, any amounts paid to Concentric in
                Period 1 above the minimum listed above for Period 1 and (b) in
                the payments for Period 3, any amounts paid to Concentric in
                Periods 1 and 2 above the minimums listed above for Periods 1
                and 2) (including for the appropriate period the payments
                described in the immediately preceding parenthetical, the
                "Period Payments"), meet or exceed the minimum committed amount
                listed above, then Customer shall have no payment obligation to
                Concentric pursuant to its minimum commitment obligations under
                this Section 2.4. For any of the above three periods, if any
                Period Payment is less than the committed amount listed above,
                Customer shall pay Concentric such shortfall within 30 after
                receipt of an invoice for such shortfall."

        4.  Term. Section 6.1, Term, is deleted in its entirety and replaced
            with the following revised section:

                "The term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date
                and continue through the end of calendar year 2002. Upon written
                notice thirty (30) days or more prior to the expiration of the
                term, the parties may mutually agree upon terms for any renewal
                term of this Agreement."

        5.  Termination. Section 6.3(a), which was deleted in Amendment 1, is
            re-instated and modified in its entirety by the following revision:

                "If this Agreement is terminated prior to the expiration of the
                term set forth herein either by Customer for its convenience or
                by Concentric for Customer's material breach of this Agreement,
                Customer will be liable for and pay Concentric any remaining
                balance of the revenue commitment set forth in section 2.4.

        6.  Marketing and Promotion. Subsection 7.2, as added in Amendment 1, is
            deleted in its entirety.

        7.  Service Level Agreement. A new subsection, 8.1(i), providing a
            network availability metric for co-located Customer servers, is
            added to the Agreement as follows:

                `8.1(i)"8.1(i)Access disruption to the Customer environment
                triggered by service issues on Concentric-provided
                infrastructure will be considered unplanned downtime.
                Concentric-provided infrastructure includes such services as
                electrical power, network connectivity to the Internet exclusive
                of Customer's end users' Internet connectivity if not purchased
                from Concentric, and cross-connects between Customer-owned
                routers and other service providers network line of demarcation
                in the data center. If unplanned downtime in any calendar month
                exceeds 130 minutes per month for Customer, (exclusive of (i)
                scheduled maintenance windows, (ii) customer enabled faults, and
                (iii) force majuere events), Concentric will credit to
                Customer's account [*] of such month's fees for Server
                Management, Data Center Facilities, and Cross Connects, as set
                forth in an Order Form. This Section sets forth Customer's sole

BURSTABLE BANDWIDTH

BURSTABLE BANDWIDTH DESCRIPTION

Usage Based Pricing - 95th Percentile

1.      Concentric takes 12 samples an hour X 24 hours a day X 365 days in a
        year divided by 12 months = 8760 samples per month.

2.      The 95th percentile is computed based on the actual number of 5-minute
        samples that went above the committed bandwidth rate of 10Mb. For
        example: If he was peaking for 20 hours during the month, we would take
        240 samples (12 samples an hour X 20 hours) and the top 5% (12 samples)
        would be discarded.

3.      The pre-established peak price for any bandwidth above the committed
        rate is divided by the number of samples taken each month.

                                   WITNESSETH

        WHEREAS, AP and SAP desire to develop, market, sell and deliver SAP's
application software products and AP's systems management services together as a
combined service offering to prospective customers (more further defined herein
as the "Alliance Offering"); and

        WHEREAS, AP and SAP desire to define the respective rights, duties and
obligations of the parties with respect to the development and delivery of the
Alliance Offering that are more fully described herein; and

        NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and the mutual covenants
herein contained, the parties hereby agree as follows:

                   ARTICLE I. DEFINITION AND SCOPE OF OFFERING

1.1     GENERAL. The Alliance Offering consists of (i) SAP offering a SAP R/3
        and SAP On-Line Store software application (the "SAP Software") and (ii)
        AP providing the hardware location at which the SAP Software would be
        run and AP's "CORIO HOSTED SOLUTION FOR SAP R/3 AND SAP ONLINE STORE"
        (collectively "AP Services"). As a result, AP and SAP will be offering
        to certain companies a SAP Software environment (the "SAP Environment")
        as a "hosted application" service. SAP will license the SAP Software
        pursuant to a mutually agreeable SAP End User Agreement. The AP Services
        will be made available pursuant to a mutually agreeable AP End User
        Agreement which may include the delivery and support of other third
        party products. This Agreement is in effect only for the delivery of the
        Alliance Offering, to the extent presently defined in this Agreement, to
        only those companies which are located in the United States and their
        parent company's global headquarters, if any, located within the United
        States. The roles and activities of each party are more fully described
        herein. In the event AP requests that the Alliance Offering be extended
        into Canada, Mexico or countries of Latin America, SAP shall use
        reasonable efforts to assist AP and the respective SAP sister company to
        execute an agreement which is substantially the same as this Agreement.
        AP acknowledges that SAP America does not have distribution rights in
        these countries and does not have the authority to execute agreements in
        the name of such sister companies and, further, that the decision to
        extend the Alliance Offering into these countries is solely that of the
        respective SAP sister company.

                        ARTICLE II. TERM AND TERMINATION

2.1     TERM. This Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and will
        continue for a period of three (3) years from the Effective Date unless
        otherwise terminated in accordance with this Section. This Agreement may
        be extended by mutual agreement of the parties for successive one year
        periods.

                                                                          Page 1

<PAGE>   2
2.2     TERMINATION FOR CAUSE. If either party materially defaults in the
        performance of any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement,
        which default is not cured within 60 days after written notice is given
        to the defaulting party specifying such default or, with respect to
        those defaults that cannot reasonably be cured within 60 days, should
        the defaulting party fail to proceed within 60 days to commence curing
        the default and thereafter to proceed with reasonable diligence to cure
        the default, the party not in default may, by giving written notice
        thereof to the defaulting party, terminate this Agreement as of the date
        of receipt by the defaulting party of such notice or as of a future date
        specified in such notice of termination. Notwithstanding the above,
        material breaches as related to the disclosure of a party's proprietary
        information shall give rise to a right to terminate for cause if such
        default is not cured within 30 days after written notice is given to the
        defaulting party specifying such default.

2.3     TERMINATION FOR BANKRUPTCY AND RELATED EVENTS. Subject to Title 11,
        United States Code, if either party becomes or is declared insolvent or
        bankrupt, is the subject of any proceedings relating to its liquidation,
        insolvency or for the appointment of a receiver or similar officer for
        it, makes an assignment for the benefit of all or substantially all of
        its creditors or enters into an agreement for the composition, extension
        or readjustment of all or substantially all of its obligations, then the
        other party may, by giving written notice thereof to such party,
        terminate this Agreement as of a date specified in such notice of
        termination.

2.4     INTENTIONALLY BLANK.

2.5     RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS FOR EXPIRATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. Upon expiration
        of this Agreement, the parties agree to the following:

        (A)     OUTSTANDING END USER AGREEMENTS. When one or more End User
                Agreements are outstanding there shall be a three year wind-down
                period whereby the terms of this Agreement, other than as
                specified in sections (b) and (c) below, will remain in full
                force and effect solely for purposes of allowing the Customers
                which are subject to current End User Agreements to receive the
                Integrated Customer Services set forth in Section 4.10. This
                Agreement shall terminate 3 years from the date of notice of
                termination pursuant to the mutual agreement of the parties or
                expiration. In the event AP desires to continue to provide
                hosted application services to any current End Users of AP and
                SAP under contract pursuant to this Agreement (hereinafter
                "Customers") once the terms and conditions of this Agreement are
                no longer in effect, AP and SAP shall execute the non-disclosure
                agreement in the form of Exhibit 1 listing those Customers.

        (B)     OUTSTANDING SALES LEADS. The parties agree to cease any joint
                marketing and selling of the Alliance Offering either directly
                or through any indirect sales channel(s) immediately. AP will
                not be permitted to offer the services described in Section 4.10
                to any prospect or non-Customers. The parties may continue to
                market and sell their respective products and services
                separately.

        (C)     NEW BUSINESS. Any End User Agreements executed prior to such
                termination notification date or expiration date will be
                considered an outstanding End User

                                                                          Page 2

<PAGE>   3
                Agreement under Section 2.5(a) herein. For those companies which
                are subject to an SAP End User Agreement only and become
                customers of AP and who desire the AP Services after such
                termination or expiration, AP and such customer must execute a
                standard Outsource Nondisclosure Agreement (attached hereto as
                Exhibit 2) in order to continue to provide AP Services to such
                customers, and AP will not be permitted to provide the services
                described in Section 4.10.

2.6     RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS FOR TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT FOR CAUSE.

        (A)     In the event that either party terminates this Agreement
                pursuant to Section 2.2, this Agreement shall terminate
                immediately after the cure period and the parties agree to the
                following:

                (I)     OUTSTANDING END USER AGREEMENTS. The services described
                        in Section 4.10 will be discontinued under all AP End
                        User Agreements as of the effective date of termination
                        of this Agreement. In the event AP desires to continue
                        to provide hosted application services to any Customers
                        under contract pursuant to this Agreement once the terms
                        and conditions of this Agreement are no longer in
                        effect, AP and SAP shall execute the non-disclosure
                        agreement in the form of Exhibit 1 listing those
                        Customers which will continue to receive such services.
                        Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the
                        termination of this Agreement was the result of an AP
                        breach then, SAP shall be entitled to require additional
                        terms and conditions be added to the non-disclosure
                        agreement to provide additional, reasonable safeguards
                        to SAP considering the nature and severity of the
                        breach.

                (II)    OUTSTANDING SALES LEADS. The parties agree to cease the
                        joint marketing and selling of the Alliance Offering
                        through the indirect sales channels(s) and its own
                        internal sales channel. AP will not be permitted to
                        offer the services described in Section 4.10 to
                        prospects or non-Customers. The parties remain free to
                        continue to market and sell their respective products
                        and services separately.

        (B)     In the event that SAP terminates this Agreement pursuant to
                Section 2.2 due to AP's material violation of SAP's Proprietary
                Information, the parties agree that the provisions of 2.6(a)
                shall apply in addition to the following:

                (I)     AP shall immediately cease Use of the SAP Proprietary
                        Information and shall irretrievably delete the SAP
                        Software, third-party database and documentation from
                        all AP computer hardware, including CPU, application
                        servers, terminals, workstations, and data files (to the
                        extent permitted by law). Within thirty days after any
                        such termination, AP shall deliver to SAP at AP's
                        expense (adequately packaged and insured for safe
                        delivery) or, at SAP's request, destroy all copies of
                        the Proprietary Information in every form. AP further
                        agrees to erase the SAP Software and documentation from
                        any storage media. AP shall certify in writing to SAP
                        that it has performed the foregoing. AP shall be solely
                        liable to its Customers and shall hold SAP harmless as a
                        result of having to comply with this Section 2.6(b)(i).

                                                                          Page 3

<PAGE>   4
                (II)    Prior to termination of this Agreement for AP's material
                        violation relating to SAP Proprietary Information, SAP
                        will provide AP with an additional thirty days to cure
                        such violation and avoid termination hereunder so long
                        as AP acknowledges that SAP does not waive any rights to
                        damages which have accrued or may continue to accrue by
                        permitting continued Use during the attempted cure
                        period and SAP shall remain entitled to all damages
                        available pursuant to this Agreement for any breach of
                        the Agreement.

2.7     RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS FOR TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF END-USER
        AGREEMENTS. Upon expiration or termination for any reason of any
        Customer's SAP End User Agreement, AP shall immediately cease Use of the
        SAP Proprietary Information and shall irretrievably delete the SAP
        Software, third-party database and documentation from all AP computer
        hardware, including CPU, application servers, terminals, workstations,
        and SAP data files (to the extent allowed by law and after having the
        opportunity to provide such SAP data files to the Customer) all as it
        relates to such Customer. Upon SAP's request, AP shall certify in
        writing to SAP that it has performed the foregoing.

                 ARTICLE III. GENERAL ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

3.1     ALLIANCE GENERAL MANAGERS; ALLIANCE TEAM. SAP and AP will each assign a
        representative who will be the primary point of contact in dealing with
        the other under this Agreement and will have the authority to make
        decisions with respect to actions taken under this Agreement (the
        "Alliance General Managers"), provided however, that this Agreement may
        only be amended by authorized representatives of AP and SAP. AP and SAP
        will assign resources to develop required business plans and sales plans
        and will cooperate to meet any mutually determined target completion
        dates.

3.2     EXECUTIVE STEERING COMMITTEE. Each of SAP and AP will provide the other
        with the names of up to three members of its senior management staff
        (inclusive of the Alliance General Managers) who will serve on an
        executive steering committee ("Executive Steering Committee"). The
        Executive Steering Committee will be responsible for (a) generally
        overseeing the performance of each party's obligation under this
        Agreement, and (b) making, and providing continuity for making,
        strategic decisions regarding the Alliance Offering. The Executive
        Steering Committee will meet quarterly. Topics of these meetings may
        include the strategic objectives of the parties and long-range planning.

3.3     JOINT BRANDING AND ADVERTISING. It is the parties' intent to jointly
        brand the Alliance Offering and associated promotional, marketing, and
        advertising materials as jointly agreed upon by the Alliance General
        Managers and subject to each party's corporate approvals.

3.4     PROSPECTIVE CUSTOMER COMMUNICATIONS. All SAP and/or AP communications
        with any prospective Customers pertaining to the Alliance Offering (and
        any subsequent End User Agreements) will be in accordance with the Sales
        Plan and coordinated through the Alliance General Managers or their
        designees unless AP and SAP otherwise mutually agree in writing.

                                                                          Page 4

<PAGE>   5
3.5     EXPENSES. Each party shall bear its own respective costs, expenses,
        risks and liabilities arising out of performance hereunder, except where
        the parties agree in writing to share in such expenses.

3.6     INVESTMENT. If AP consummates a private placement of series D preferred
        stock (the "Financing") prior to consummation of its initial public
        offering of common stock pursuant to a registration statement on Form
        S-1 (the "IPO"), AP will permit SAP to participate in the Financing on
        terms substantially similar to those pursuant to which other
        participants participate and in an amount to be agreed upon by AP and
        SAP prior to consummation of the Financing. As consideration for the
        SAP's actual participation in the Financing, SAP agrees to develop, with
        AP, a joint strategic initiative to be agreed upon by the parties that
        will further the objectives of the Alliance. Except for the foregoing
        sentence, this section shall terminate at the earlier of the IPO and the
        termination of this Agreement.

3.7     COMPETITOR OWNERSHIP CHANGE. In the event an SAP competitor, where a
        competitor is defined as an entity which distributes software product(s)
        which compete with SAP software which currently includes SAP R/3, SAP
        B2B, SAP BW, SAP APO, SAP CRM, mySAP.com and SAP Knowledge Warehouse,
        obtains direct or indirect ownership, or control of, five percent or
        more of the equity of Corio or an SAP competitor's employee or officer
        becomes a member of the Corio board of directors, SAP shall have the
        right to terminate this agreement upon sixty days prior written notice
        to Corio. A termination pursuant to this provision shall be treated in
        the same manner as the expiration of the agreement as related to the
        section 2. transition period.

                  ARTICLE IV. DELIVERY OF THE ALLIANCE OFFERING

4.1     MARKETING, COMMUNICATION & PROMOTIONAL PLANS. The parties agree to
        jointly develop and execute marketing, communications, and promotional
        plans and/or policies that are compatible ("Marketing Plan").
        Promotional activities will likely consist of direct telephone and mail
        marketing, direct print advertising in trade journals, Internet
        advertising, public and media relations, third party industry analyst
        briefings and relations, and select trade conference joint activities.
        The parties agree to appoint a "Marketing Lead" representative, who
        reports to the Alliance General Manager for purposes of Alliance
        activities, who will be the primary point of contact in dealing with the
        other under this paragraph and will have the authority to make decisions
        with respect to actions taken under this paragraph. Any changes made to
        these plans must be approved in writing by the Alliance General
        Managers. These plans will be reviewed at the Executive Steering
        Committee meetings.

4.2     SAP END USER AGREEMENT. SAP will create its own end user agreement (the
        "SAP End User Agreement") and will utilize the SAP End User Agreement to
        contract directly with Customers for the SAP Software used in the
        Alliance Offering and related software support services. SAP will
        license the SAP software to Customers on a "per user/per month" basis as
        its primary pricing structure. SAP may, at its own discretion, offer
        paid-up licenses and/or the ability to accelerate monthly payments as an
        option.

4.3     AP END USER AGREEMENT. AP will create its own end user agreement (the
        "AP End User Agreement") and will utilize the AP End User Agreement to
        contract directly with Customers for the provision of the AP Services on
        a "per user/per month" basis as its primary pricing structure.
        Configuration and implementation services may not be subject to the "per
        user/per month" pricing structure.

                                                                          Page 5

<PAGE>   6
4.4     MODIFICATIONS TO END USER AGREEMENTS. The SAP and AP End User Agreements
        attached hereto as Attachments A and B respectively have been jointly
        agreed upon as of the Effective Date. Unless otherwise agreed, any party
        making a change to its End User Agreement (other than changes that
        correct errors in grammar, typos, and format or changes made for a
        specific customer which do not impact the offering of the other party or
        otherwise materially change the Alliance Offering) must give the other
        party notice of such change and any objection to such change must be
        provided to the other party in writing within 10 business days from the
        receipt of such notification. Objections will be addressed by the
        Alliance General Managers and the Executive Steering Committee as
        appropriate. In the event of any change to a party's standard End User
        Agreement, such party will promptly provide an updated version of its
        End User Agreement to the other party. Neither party may bind or impose
        any liabilities, obligations, responsibilities or conditions on the
        other party in any way under their respective End User Agreement.

4.5     PERFORMANCE. SAP and AP will each execute their own respective End User
        Agreements with each Customer and will be responsible for their own
        performance under each End User Agreement.

4.6     CERTIFIED BUSINESS SOLUTION PARTNER AGREEMENTS. In the event the
        Alliance Offering is extended to prospects with annual revenues less
        than $200 million, the parties agree that the Alliance Offering will be
        marketed via the SAP Certified Business Solution Partners ("CBS
        Partners"). The SAP Certified Business Solution Partners who elect to
        participate as the primary sales channel of the Alliance Offering, as
        described in Section 4.9(a), will execute an agreement between
        themselves and SAP and a separate agreement between themselves and AP
        which will govern any such sale of the Alliance Offering (the "Certified
        Business Solution Partner Agreement"). The parties agree that their
        respective Certified Business Solution Partner Agreements will contain
        at a minimum the compensation models and sales targets related to that
        Certified Business Solution Partner for the Alliance Offering and will
        provide such compensation models and sales targets to the other party.
        Each party will be solely responsible for all payments due to the
        Certified Business Solution Partners under their respective Certified
        Business Solution Partner Agreements.

4.7     SALES PLAN. AP and SAP agree to jointly develop a sales plan that will
        more definitively define the roles and responsibilities pertaining to
        any sale of the Alliance Offering (the "Sales Plan"). Such Sales Plan
        shall allocate the responsibility between the parties to provide lead
        qualification and tracking and shall specify the conditions, manner and
        amount of compensation to be paid by each party in the event that a
        Customer is signed up which was, at that time, an active sales prospect
        of SAP, AP or SAP Certified Business Solutions Partner as defined in the
        Sales Plan. Any changes made to the Sales Plan must be approved in
        writing by the Alliance General Managers. The Sales Plan will be
        reviewed at the Executive Steering Committee meetings and updated
        periodically, such period to be specified in the Sales Plan.

4.8     SALES TARGETS. In accordance with the Sales Plan, the parties agree to
        establish joint sales volume targets, the channel sales model, and rules
        of engagement as mutually agreed upon in writing. The parties agree to
        assign professional staff (such as sales representatives, sales support
        representatives, or pre-sales technical representatives) who

                                                                          Page 6

<PAGE>   7
        will have individual performance objectives and personal compensation
        metrics (commission or bonus plans) connected to the achievement of the
        sales targets.

4.9     ALLIANCE OFFERING SALES CHANNELS. AP and SAP mutually agree to make the
        Alliance Offering generally available through the following:

        (A)     PRIMARY SALES CHANNEL. The primary sales channel for the
                Alliance Offering will be each parties' direct sales force. Each
                party may utilize third party sales agents and/or marketing
                representatives to fulfill some of their sales responsibilities
                after receiving the prior written consent of the other party.
                Such consent shall be not be unreasonably withheld and shall
                consider factors such as the sales agent's or marketing
                representative's ability to properly represent and demonstrate
                the offering from a technical, business and support perspective.
                A party may withhold consent if, in that party's sole
                determination, it believes that the use of such sales agent or
                marketing representative may result in a business conflict or is
                otherwise not in the best interest if the offering. All sales
                agents and marketing representatives must execute a
                confidentiality agreement acceptable to the parties. Use of the
                CBS Partners as sales agents and/or marketing representative
                shall not require the consent of the other party. AP and SAP
                will jointly establish requirements and a certification process
                for SAP Certified Business Solutions Partners who participate in
                the sale of the Alliance Offering. The parties agree that any
                such Certified Business Solutions Partner must execute a
                Certified Business Solutions Partner Agreement in order to be
                authorized to sell the Alliance Offering. Any such agreement
                entered into by the Certified Business Solutions Partner must
                include, among other items, a provision requiring the Certified
                Business Solutions Partner to comply with its sales targets. In
                the event that an SAP Certified Business Solutions Partner
                elects not to execute the SAP Certified Business Solutions
                Partner Agreement with SAP or fails to meet its Alliance
                Offering sales targets, SAP agrees to take reasonable steps to
                implement a plan to meet the sales targets in that specific
                Certified Business Solutions Partner's territory.

4.10    INTEGRATED CUSTOMER SUPPORT PLAN. The parties agree to share customer
        support knowledge, processes and tools in an effort to design, execute,
        and jointly manage a process whereby Alliance Offering Customer support
        requests may be shared or transferred from one party to the other in
        accordance with the following:

        (A)     INTEGRATED CUSTOMER SUPPORT ENVIRONMENT PLAN. The parties agree
                that the Integrated Customer Support Environment ("Customer
                Support Plan") plan is to be jointly developed to meet the
                mutual service level requirements of the parties utilizing the
                support infrastructures of the Alliance Offering Customer, AP,
                SAP, and the Certified Business Solutions Partner.

        (B)     CHANGE PROCESS. The parties acknowledge and agree that the
                procedures, processes, and technology used to implement the
                Integrated Customer Support Environment plan may change over
                time. Any changes to the Integrated Customer Support Environment
                plan shall be mutually agreed to by the Customer Support Leads.
                The Integrated Customer Support Environment plan may be reviewed
                at the Executive Steering Committee meetings as required.

                                                                          Page 7

<PAGE>   8
        (C)     CUSTOMER SUPPORT LEAD. Each party will designate a Customer
                Support Lead who will be the point of contact for Integrated
                Customer Support Environment related matters. The Integrated
                Customer Support Environment plan will identify each party's
                Customer Support Lead.

4.11    POST TERMINATION ACCESS. Upon the expiration or termination of this
        Agreement and the section 2.5(a) wind-down period, if any, or upon
        termination of this Agreement by AP due to SAP's material breach under
        section 2.6, AP access to the Software for the purpose of performing
        customer support shall arise pursuant to the SAP End User Agreement with
        a Customer and the executed Outsource Non-Disclosure Agreement to be
        executed by SAP and AP.

              ARTICLE V. CONFIDENTIALITY AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

5.1     CONFIDENTIALITY.

        (A)     DEFINITION OF PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. For purposes of this
                Agreement, "Proprietary Information" means (i) with respect to
                SAP, the software and documentation and any complete or partial
                copies thereof, the concepts, techniques, ideas and know-how
                embodied and expressed in any computer programs or modules
                included in the SAP software, including the structure, sequence,
                and organization of such programs or modules ("Program
                Concepts"), SAP licensors' third-party database, any other
                third-party software licensed with or as part of the SAP
                software, benchmark results, information contained in SAP's
                Customer Support systems (CSS, CSU, and OSS), customer support
                metrics and methodologies, customer list, marketing lead
                information, and any other information identified or reasonably
                identifiable as confidential and proprietary information of SAP,
                or its licensors ("SAP Proprietary Information"); (ii) with
                respect to AP, customer support metrics and methodologies,
                customer list, marketing lead information and information
                identified or reasonably identifiable as the confidential and
                proprietary information of AP ("AP Proprietary Information");
                and provided that, any part of the SAP or AP Proprietary
                Information which: (a) is or becomes publicly available through
                no act or failure of the other party; or (b) was or is
                rightfully acquired by the other party from a source other than
                the disclosing party prior to receipt from the disclosing party;
                or (c) becomes independently available to the other party as a
                matter of right; or (d) already known to a party without an
                obligation of confidentiality; or (e) is independently developed
                without use of the other party's Proprietary Information; or (f)
                disclosed without similar restrictions by SAP to a third party;
                or (g) approved by the party for disclosure; or (h) is required
                to be disclosed pursuant to the requirement of a government
                agency or by operation of law subject to prior consultation with
                the disclosing party's legal counsel shall be excluded.

        (B)     LIMITS OF DISCLOSURE. Neither party shall, without the other
                party's prior written consent, disclose, provide, or make
                available any of the Proprietary Information of the other party
                in any form to any person, except to bona fide employees,
                officers, directors, or consultants of such party whose access
                is necessary to enable such party to exercise its rights
                hereunder. Each party agrees that prior to disclosing any
                Proprietary Information of the other party to any consultant, it

                                                                          Page 8

<PAGE>   9
                will obtain from that consultant a written acknowledgment that
                such consultant will be bound by the same terms as specified in
                this Section 5 with respect to the Proprietary Information.

        (C)     PROTECTIVE PRECAUTIONS. AP agrees to maintain a log of the
                number and location of all originals and copies of the SAP
                software which it comes into possession as related to the
                Alliance Offering. AP and SAP acknowledge that any disclosure to
                third parties of Proprietary Information may cause immediate and
                irreparable harm to the owner of the disclosed Proprietary
                Information; therefore, each party agrees to take all reasonable
                steps and the same protective precautions to protect the
                Proprietary Information from disclosure to third parties as with
                its own proprietary and confidential information.

5.2     CERTAIN DEFINITIONS.

        (A)     "Extension" means an addition to the Software which does not
                require a Modification.

        (B)     "Modification" means a change to the Software which changes the
                source code.

5.3     OWNERSHIP.

        (A)     Each party will retain all rights it possessed prior to the
                Effective Date in any software, ideas, concepts, know-how,
                development tools, techniques or any other proprietary material
                or information that may be used by such party in connection with
                its role relating to the development or delivery of the Alliance
                Offering. All software that is licensed by a party from a third
                party vendor will be and remain the property of such vendor.
                Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (I)
                AP (i) will retain all right, title and interest in and to all
                development tools, know-how, methodologies, processes,
                technologies or algorithms used in performing the AP Services
                which are based on trade secrets or proprietary information of
                AP or are otherwise owned or licensed by AP and developed
                without the assistance of SAP or are not based on SAP
                Proprietary Information, (ii) will be free to use the ideas,
                concepts and know-how which are developed by AP in the course of
                performing the AP Services and may be retained by AP's employees
                in intangible form so long such ideas, concepts or know-how are
                not based on SAP Proprietary Information, and (iii) will retain
                ownership of any AP-owned software or development tools that are
                used in the Alliance Offering and become embedded in any
                components of the Alliance Offering; and (II) SAP (i) will
                retain all right, title and interest in and to all development
                tools, know-how, methodologies, processes, technologies or
                algorithms used in performing the SAP services which are based
                on trade secrets or proprietary information of SAP or are
                otherwise owned or licensed by SAP and developed without the
                assistance of AP or are not based AP Proprietary Information,
                (ii) will be free to use the ideas, concepts and know-how which
                are developed by SAP in the course of performing the SAP
                services and may be retained by SAP employees in intangible
                form, and (iii) will retain ownership of any SAP-owned software
                or development tools that are used in the Alliance Offering and
                become embedded in any components of the Alliance Offering.

                                                                          Page 9

<PAGE>   10
        (B)     In the event AP without SAP's participation develops any
                Modification or Extension (hereinafter referred to as "AP
                Extension" or "AP Modification") to the SAP Software for an
                Alliance Offering Customer, AP agrees that ownership of such AP
                Extension or AP Modification shall be in accordance with the SAP
                End User Agreement with such Customer.

        (C)     Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, in the event SAP develops
                either independently, or jointly with AP, any Modification or
                Extension to the SAP Software, such Modifications or Extensions
                will be the exclusive property of SAP and SAP AG, and AP will
                not grant, either expressly or impliedly, any rights, title,
                interest, or licenses to such Modifications or Extensions to any
                third party. AP shall be entitled to Use such Modifications and
                Extensions solely in support of Alliance Offering Customers as
                contemplated in this Agreement.

        (D)     AP agrees that it will not modify any provided third-party
                software hereunder, unless expressly authorized in writing by
                such third-party vendor.

        (E)     AP shall register all Modifications to the SAP Software, using
                OSS (Online Software Service), with SAP prior to making such
                Modifications.

        (F)     AP agrees to: (i) keep and maintain adequate and current records
                of all Software Modifications (which records shall be made
                reasonably available to SAP); (ii) promptly disclose to SAP and
                provide copies to SAP of any Software Modifications in which SAP
                has ownership rights; and (iii) insert in all copies of the SAP
                Software as modified all copyright, trade secret, or other
                notices thereon or therein as SAP may from time to time direct.

        (G)     No licenses will be deemed to have been granted by either party
                to any of its patents, trade secrets, trademarks or copyrights,
                except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement.
                Nothing in this Agreement will require AP or SAP to violate the
                proprietary rights of any third party in any software or
                otherwise. The furnishing of the Proprietary Information for the
                purposes set forth in this Agreement does not constitute the
                grant, option, license, sublicense, assignment, or other form of
                transfer to the other party of any rights, title or interest in
                or to such Proprietary Information. AP expressly warrants and
                represents on its behalf, and on behalf of its agents and
                employees, that no Modifications and Extensions for the licensed
                SAP Software will be performed without providing prior written
                notice to SAP. All Modifications and Extensions to the SAP
                Software shall be considered part of the SAP Software and SAP
                Proprietary Information for the purposes of this Agreement.

5.4     AP RIGHT TO ACCESS SAP SOFTWARE. SAP grants AP a right to use, load,
        execute, employ, utilize, store, and display ("Use") the SAP Software
        which is licensed to Alliance Offering Customers pursuant to an SAP End
        User Agreement at a designated AP location. AP agrees that it will Use
        such SAP Software solely for providing AP Services to such Customers. AP
        agrees that such Use is contingent upon the SAP End User Customer
        licensing the appropriate type and number of Users for AP's Use. AP will
        not Use the SAP Software to process its own business information or to
        provide processing or facilities management or other services to any
        other parties other than Alliance Offering Customers unless there is a
        separate agreement executed by AP for purposes other than the Alliance

                                                                         Page 10

<PAGE>   11
        Offering. All SAP software Used by AP pursuant to this Agreement shall
        be protected from disclosure in accordance with the terms and conditions
        of this Agreement.

        AP shall be entitled to a reasonable number of copies of the SAP
        Software in various configurations (e.g. R/3 on NT with Oracle, R/3 on
        HP Unix with Informix) solely for non-productive Alliance Offering use
        such as demonstration purposes and preparation of Alliance Offering
        roll-out on these configurations. Such SAP Software shall be provided at
        no charge and AP agrees that it is responsible to secure all third party
        software and database licenses, if any, associated with the
        configurations. AP shall execute an SAP provided Appendix and Schedule
        for each copy of the Software licensed pursuant to this provision.

5.5     SURVIVAL OF ARTICLE V. The provisions of Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, and 5.4
        will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any
        reason.

                     ARTICLE VI. INDEMNITIES AND LIABILITIES

6.1     NO REPRESENTATION REGARDING COMBINATION USE. SAP makes no representation
        with respect to the possibility of infringement by Combination Use of
        the SAP Software. The parties agree that SAP has no duty to investigate
        nor to warn AP of any such possibility. As used herein, Combination Use
        means Use of the SAP Software in conjunction with any of the following:
        (i) any software other than the SAP Software or (ii) any apparatus other
        than a Designated Unit (each individual computer in which the Software
        and Third-Party Database are installed), unless such Use is prescribed
        in the Documentation.

6.2     INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INDEMNIFICATION.

        (A)     Except for Combination Use, each party shall indemnify the
                other, up to the maximum amount described in Section 6.2(c),
                against all claims, liabilities, awards, and costs, including
                reasonable attorneys' fees reasonably incurred in the defense of
                any claim brought against a party by third parties alleging that
                the other party's software and documentation (other than third
                party software and documentation) infringes or misappropriates:
                (i) any United States patent; or (ii) a United States copyright;
                or (iii) trade secret rights, provided that, the party seeking
                indemnification promptly notifies the other party in writing of
                any such claim and the indemnitor is permitted to control fully
                the defense and any settlement of such claim. The indemnitee
                shall reasonably cooperate in the defense of such claim and may
                appear, at its own expense, through counsel. The indemnitor may,
                in its sole discretion, settle any such claim on a basis
                requiring indemnitor to substitute for the infringing software
                and documentation alternative substantially equivalent
                non-infringing programs and supporting documentation.

        (B)     If software or documentation becomes the subject of a claim
                under this Section 6.2, or in the indemnitor's opinion is likely
                to become the subject of such a claim, then, in addition to
                defending the claim and paying any damages and attorneys' fees
                as required above in this Section 6.2, the indemnitor will
                either (A) replace or modify the software or confidential
                information to make it noninfringing or cure any claimed misuse
                of another's trade secret or (B) procure for the indemnitee the
                right

                                                                         Page 11

<PAGE>   12
                to continue using the software or confidential information
                pursuant to this Agreement. Any costs associated with
                implementing either of the above alternatives will be borne by
                the indemnitor but will be subject to Section 6.2(c). If neither
                option is available to the indemnitor through the use of
                reasonable, diligent efforts, (x) the indemnitee will return
                such software or confidential information to the indemnitor and
                (y) if requested by the indemnitee in good faith, the parties
                will negotiate, pursuant to Section 7.2 but subject to Section
                6.2(c), to reach a written agreement on what, if any, monetary
                damages (in addition to the indemnitor's obligation to defend
                the claim and pay any damages and attorneys' fees as required
                above in this Section 6.2) are reasonably owed by the indemnitor
                to the indemnitee as a result of the indemnitee no longer having
                use of such software or confidential information.

        (C)     The maximum aggregate liability of the indemnifying party under
                the indemnity provided in this Section 6.2 shall be a sum equal
                to ten million dollars. If there should be more than one claim
                of infringement, the amount payable under such indemnity in

7.1     ASSIGNMENT: SUBCONTRACTING.

        (A)     ASSIGNMENT. Neither party shall assign or in any manner transfer
                any obligation assumed or contemplated by this Agreement without
                the prior written consent of the other party to this Agreement,
                the granting of which shall not be unreasonably withheld;
                provided, that a change of control or acquisition of a party
                shall be considered an assignment for the purposes of this
                Section 7.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, consent to the
                assignment to a competitor can be withheld for any reason.

        (B)     SUBCONTRACTING. Notwithstanding the forgoing and subject to
                Section 4.9(a), each party shall be reasonably permitted to
                subcontract its services in the performance of its obligations
                hereunder so long as all or substantially all of a core
                obligation is not subcontracted.

7.2.    MEDIATION: ARBITRATION. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising under,
        out of, in connection with or in relation to this Agreement, or the
        breach, termination, validity or enforceability of any provision hereof
        (a "Dispute"), if not resolved informally through negotiation between
        the parties, will be submitted to non-binding mediation. The parties
        will mutually determine who the mediator will be from a list of
        mediators obtained from the American Arbitration Association office
        located in the city determined as set forth below in this Section 7.2
        (the "AAA"). If the parties are unable to agree on the mediator, the
        mediator will be selected by the AAA. If any Dispute is not resolved
        through mediation, it will be resolved by final and binding arbitration
        conducted in accordance with

                                                                         Page 13

<PAGE>   14
        and subject to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the AAA then
        applicable. One arbitrator will be selected in accordance with such
        rules, and the arbitrators will allow such discovery as is appropriate,
        consistent with the purposes of arbitration in accomplishing fair,
        speedy and cost effective resolution of disputes. The arbitrator will
        reference the rules of evidence of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure
        then in effect in setting the scope of discovery. Judgment upon the
        award rendered in any such arbitration may be entered in any court
        having jurisdiction thereof, or application may be made to such court
        for a judicial acceptance of the award and an enforcement, as the law of
        such jurisdiction may require or allow. Any negotiation, mediation or
        arbitration conducted pursuant to this Section 7.2 will take place in
        Palo Alto, California, if initiated by SAP, and in Philadelphia, Pa, if
        initiated by AP. Other than those matters involving injunctive relief,
        claims relating to the ownership or title to intellectual property
        rights in the Proprietary Information or any action necessary to enforce
        the award of the arbitrator, the parties agree that the provisions of
        this Section 7.2 are a complete defense to any suit, action or other
        proceeding instituted in any court or before any administrative tribunal
        with respect to any Dispute or the performance of the AP Services by AP.
        Nothing in this Section 7.2 prevents the parties from exercising their
        right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Article II.

7.3     RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN OTHER ACTIVITIES. This Agreement relates exclusively
        to the development, marketing, sales and delivery efforts of the
        Alliance Offering. In no way does this Agreement (i) constitute an
        understanding in regard to other programs or business activities of
        either party, (ii) constitute an understanding as to any other
        procurements by one party from the other, nor (iii) prevent either party
        from engaging in similar activities with other companies.

7.4     RELATIONSHIP. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute,
        create, give effect to, or otherwise recognize a joint venture,
        partnership, pooling arrangement, formal business entity or any type of
        permanent arrangement, and the employees of one party shall not be
        deemed employees of the other. SAP and AP shall be acting in their
        respective capacities as independent contractors and under no
        circumstances will either party be deemed to be in any relationship with
        the other carrying with it fiduciary or trust responsibilities, whether
        through partnership or otherwise, and neither party undertakes by this
        Agreement or otherwise to perform any obligation of the other party,
        whether regulatory or contractual, or to assume any responsibility for
        the other party's business or operations. Each party has the sole right
        and obligation to supervise, manage, contract, direct, procure, perform
        or cause to be performed, all work to be performed by it hereunder.
        Nothing in this Agreement shall grant to either party the right to make
        commitments of any kind for or on behalf of the other party without the
        prior written consent of the other party.

7.5     MEDIA RELEASES: ADVERTISING. All media releases, public announcements
        and public disclosures by SAP or AP relating to this Agreement or its
        subject matter, including, without limitation, promotional or marketing
        material (but not including any announcement intended solely for
        internal distribution at SAP or AP, as the case may be, or any
        disclosure required by legal, accounting or regulatory requirements
        beyond the reasonable control of SAP or AP, as the case may be) shall be
        coordinated and jointly agreed upon by the Alliance General Managers

        order to verify compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Such

        Upon SAP's reasonable request, AP shall deliver to SAP a report, as
        defined by SAP, evidencing AP's and Customers' usage of the Software
        licensed pursuant to the SAP end User Agreement

7.7     EXCUSED PERFORMANCE. Each party shall be excused from performance
        hereunder (other than performance of obligations to make payment, if
        any) for any period and to the extent that it is prevented from

        disturbance, court order, labor dispute, or other cause beyond its
        reasonable control, including failures or fluctuations in electrical
        power, heat, light, air conditioning or telecommunications equipment,
        and such nonperformance shall not be a default hereunder or a ground for
        termination hereof.

        (d) AP shall maintain a log of the number and location of all originals
and copies of the Software. The inclusion of a copyright notice on any portion
of the Software or Documentation shall not cause or be construed to cause it to
be a published work.

3.      Protection of Proprietary Information.

        (a) AP agrees that it will not disclose, provide, or make available any
of the Proprietary Information in any form to any person, except to bona fide

        (b) AP shall not copy, translate, disassemble, or decompile, nor create
or attempt to create the source code from the object code of the Software
licensed hereunder or use it to create a derivative work, unless authorized in
writing by SAP.

        (c) AP acknowledges that any disclosure to third parties of Proprietary
Information may cause immediate and irreparable harm to SAP, therefore, AP
agrees to take the same protective precautions to protect the Proprietary

Documentation from any storage media. AP shall certify in writing to SAP that it
has performed the foregoing.

5.      No Rights Transferred.

        The furnishing of the Proprietary Information for the limited purposes
set forth herein does not constitute the grant, option, license, sublicense,
assignment, or other form of transfer to AP of any rights, title or interest in
or to such Proprietary Information.

6.      Modifications and Extensions.

        AP, under the terms of this Agreement, expressly warrants and represents
on its behalf, and on behalf of its agents and employees, that no Modifications
or Extensions for the licensed Software will be performed without providing
prior written notice to SAP. All Modifications and Extensions to the Software
owned by SAP shall be considered part of the Software for purposes of this
Agreement.
