EXHIBIT 10.23  

 
  ADDENDUM I TO LICENSE AGREEMENT    
  

        This agreement (hereinafter "Addendum I") is between Digital Voice Systems, Inc. a corporation organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, with a principal office at One Van de Graaff Drive, Burlington, MA 01803 (hereinafter called "DVSI") and E. F. Johnson Company a company incorporated under the laws
of the state of Minnesota, with a principal office at 299 Johnson Avenue, Waseca, Minnesota 56093 (hereinafter called "Licensee"). 

        This
agreement is an addendum to the license agreement between DVSI and E. F. Johnson Company dated May 15, 1995 (hereinafter the "LICENSE AGREEMENT"). Under the terms of the

TMS320C54X Software comprises Object Code but not Source Code. DVSI is willing to deliver such TMS320C54X Software to Licensee, and to extend the license granted in the LICENSE AGREEMENT to the
TMS320C54X Software under the terms and conditions described herein. 

        This
Addendum I becomes effective on the date when it has been signed by both parties (hereinafter the "Effective Date").

Licensee the TMS320C54X Software which implements the Technology on a Texas Instruments TMS320C54X processor in a form suitable for installation on an IBM compatible PC.

	1.2

addition, at DVSI's expense, DVSI will make available appropriate personnel who will provide up to two (2) working days of instruction at DVSI's facility or on the telephone

	2.4
	Should

with the royalty provisions contained in Section 6 of the LICENSE AGREEMENT. 

3.    ACCEPTANCE AND TERMINATION

AGREEMENT.

	3.2
	If
the TMS320C54X Software does not conform to the specifications in Section 3.1, Licensee may reject the TMS320C54X Software for technical non-conformance upon
written notification to DVSI within the first thirty (30) days from the date of Licensee's receipt of the TMS320C54X Software. In the event that Licensee retains the TMS320C54X Software for a
period of thirty (30) days after delivery of the TMS320C54X Software to Licensee without written notification to DVSI of rejection, this shall constitute acceptance of the TMS320C54X Software.

	3.3
	In
the event that the TMS320C54X Software is rejected by Licensee in accordance with Section 3.2, Licensee shall notify DVSI in writing of the rejection and reasons for

to DVSI either at DVSI's or Licensee's facility. Errors which cannot be produced on such equipment shall not be grounds for Licensee's claim that the TMS320C54X Software does not conform to the
specifications in Section 3.1. In the event Licensee rejects the TMS320C54X Software in accordance with this Section 3, DVSI shall have thirty (30) days, or longer if mutually
agreed, after receiving notice of such rejection to cure any demonstrated failure(s) or area(s) of non-conformance in the TMS320C54X Software. Once the TMS320C54X Software has been

warrants that the TMS320C54X Software is fully compliant with the specifications in Section 1.1. DVSI will fix or replace the TMS320C54X Software, at no cost to the
