necessary to provide confidential, proprietary, or trade secret information to
the other party in connection with this Agreement, such disclosure will be made
in accordance with the provisions of the mutually executed Non-Disclosure
Agreement dated August 16, 2001. Nothing in this Agreement or in the
Non-Disclosure Agreement referred to in this section shall be deemed to restrict
or prohibit SAIC or Predictive from providing to others services and
deliverables the Same as or similar to the Services and Deliverables. In
providing any such similar services or deliverables to any third party, each
party shall keep confidential any of the other's confidential, proprietary or
trade secret information which is subject to the Non-Disclosure Agreement
executed pursuant to this section, in accordance with the requirements of such
agreement.

7.       Intellectual Property.

         (a) Predictive and SAIC shall each retain ownership of, and all right,
title and interest in and to, their respective, pre-existing Intellectual
Property (as hereinafter defined), and no license therein, whether express or
implied, is granted by this Agreement or as a result of the Services performed

interests in pre-existing Intellectual Property, separate license agreements on
mutually acceptable terms will be executed.

         (b) SAIC grants to Predictive a royalty-free, paid up, worldwide,
perpetual, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use any SAIC Intellectual
Property incorporated in any Deliverable, solely for Predictive's use of that
Deliverable for its internal business purposes. SAIC shall retain ownership of
and unrestricted right to use any Intellectual Property. The Services performed
and any deliverable items produced pursuant to this Agreement are not "works for
hire."

         (c) As used herein, "Intellectual Property" shall mean inventions
(whether or not patentable), works of authorship, trade secrets, techniques,
know-how, ideas, concepts, algorithms, and other intellectual property
incorporated in any Deliverable and first created or developed by SAIC in
providing the Services.

8.       Taxes.  Predictive shall pay any and all sales, use, value added,

on SAIC's income), imposed by any authority, government or governmental agency,
and shall comply with all applicable treaties, laws, rules, or regulations
relating thereto.

9.       Termination.  Either party may terminate this Agreement or individual
Task Orders hereunder for any reason upon 30 days written notice to the other
party. Termination will not affect payment obligations incurred under this
Agreement for Services performed prior to the effective date of termination, and
for any costs incurred, including, without limitation, commitments to purchase
products or services from third parties that SAIC entered into during the course
of performance hereunder prior to the effective date of termination. Such
reimbursable costs may include, but are not limited to, cancellation fees,
minimum consulting or material fees, and non-refundable charges or fees for
third party products or services.

10.      Limited Warranty.

         (a) SAIC warrants that the Services provided under this Agreement shall
be performed with that degree of skill and judgment normally exercised by
recognized professional firms performing services of the same or substantially
similar nature. In the event of any breach of the foregoing warranty, provided
Predictive has delivered to SAIC timely notice of such breach as hereinafter
required, SAIC shall, at its own expense, in its discretion either: (1)
re-perform the non-conforming Services and correct the non-conforming
Deliverables to conform to this standard; or (2) refund to Predictive that
portion of the amounts received by SAIC attributable to the non-conforming
Services and/or Deliverables. No warranty claim shall be effective unless
Predictive has delivered to SAIC written notice specifying in detail the
non-conformities within 90 days after performance of the non-conforming Services
or tender of the non-conforming Deliverables. The remedy set forth in this
Section 10(a) is the sole and exclusive remedy for breach of the foregoing
warranty.

GUARANTEES, OR WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES THAT MAY BE
ALLEGED TO ARISE AS A RESULT OF CUSTOM OR USAGE, ANY WARRANTY OF ERROR-FREE
PERFORMANCE, OR ANY WARRANTY OF THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS, OR FUNCTIONALITY OF THE
PREDICTIVE'S HARDWARE, SOFTWARE, FIRMWARE, OR COMPUTER SYSTEMS.

right to use and furnish to SAIC for SAIC's use in connection with this
Agreement, any information, specifications, data or Intellectual Property that
Predictive has provided or will provide to SAIC in order for SAIC to perform the
Services and to create the Deliverables identified in Task Orders incorporated
into Exhibit A. Predictive further represents and warrants that possession and
use of that information, specifications and data by SAIC under the terms and
conditions of this Agreement will not constitute an infringement upon any
patent, copyright, trade secret, or other intellectual property right of any
third party

11.      Limitation of Liability

         (a) SAIC's total liability to Predictive for any and all liabilities,
claims or damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement, howsoever caused
and regardless of the legal theory asserted, including breach of contract or
warranty, tort, strict liability, statutory liability or otherwise, shall not,
in the aggregate, exceed the amount actually paid to SAIC under the specific
task order at issue.

for any punitive, exemplary, special, indirect, incidental or consequential
damages (including, but not limited to, lost profits, lost business
opportunities, loss of use or equipment down time, and loss of or corruption to
data) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, regardless of the legal
theory under which such damages are sought, and even if the parties have been

         This Agreement ("Agreement") is made by and between BELLSOUTH
TELECOMMUNICATIONS, INC., a Georgia corporation ("BELLSOUTH") with offices
located in Atlanta, Georgia and Predictive Systems, Inc., a New York corporation
("VENDOR") with offices located in Atlanta, Georgia.

1.       TERM OF AGREEMENT

         The term of this Agreement shall commence when executed by both
parties, and shall, except as otherwise provided herein, continue in effect
thereafter through December 31, 2001, and shall be automatically renewed for
successive terms of one (1) year each unless terminated in writing by either
party thirty (30) days prior to the expiration date of the then current term, or
pursuant to Sections 15, 21 or 25 herein.

2.       SCOPE

         The scope of this Agreement is to define the means by which BELLSOUTH
will provide to its end-user customers various applications-based solutions that
address the customer need for value in the communications arena. One method by
which BELLSOUTH will make available this solution is through a co-marketing
arrangement with the VENDOR, as detailed herein, whereby the VENDOR may receive
sales leads from BELLSOUTH for the VENDOR services and BELLSOUTH may receive
sales leads from VENDOR for BELLSOUTH services.

         This Agreement shall provide for a Level 1 and a Level 2 relationship
between BELLSOUTH and VENDOR. All provisions of this Agreement shall apply to
both Level 1 and Level 2 except where specifically noted as to applicability to
Level 2 only. Level 1 is the entry point for all VENDORS. Level 2 may be
attained by VENDORS who have sold, via this agreement, their applications or
services to 5 or more BellSouth end-user customers with total revenue of
$100,000. Level 1 and Level 2 shall be more fully described in separate
documents of operating standards and guidelines which shall be considered to be
part of this agreement.

         This Agreement shall not constitute the creation of a legal
representative or agency relationship between the parties, nor shall any party
have the right or authority to assume, create, or incur any liability or
obligation of any kind, expressed or implied, against, or in the name of, or in
the behalf of the other party. No party shall have any power or authority to
bind or commit the other party. Nothing contained in the Agreement shall be
deemed or construed as creating a joint venture or partnership between the
parties. Except as specifically set forth herein, no party shall have the power
to control the activities and operations of any other party and their status is,
and at all times will continue to be, that of independent contractor.

         Each party's relationship to the other party in the performance of this
Agreement is that of an independent contractor. Personnel furnished by a party
("Party's Employee(s)") to perform services hereunder shall at all times remain
under that party's control and direction and shall be employees solely of that

II.      DISCLAIMERS

         BELLSOUTH DOES NOT AND SHALL NOT OFFER ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND FOR THE
PRODUCT WHICH VENDOR PROVIDES TO AN END-USER OR OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY. ANY
WARRANTY OBLIGATION SET FORTH IN AN END-USER'S AGREEMENT WITH VENDOR WITH REGARD

OR OTHERWISE. VENDOR'S AGREEMENT WITH END-USERS SHALL PROVIDE THAT BELLSOUTH
SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO THE DAMAGE REFERENCED IN THIS PARAGRAPH. THIS CLAUSE
SHALL SURVIVE FAILURE OF AN EXCLUSIVE REMEDY.

         IN NO EVENT SHALL BELLSOUTH, OR VENDOR, THEIR PARENT CORPORATION,
AFFILIATED COMPANIES OR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR

13.      USE OF INFORMATION

         All specifications, drawings, sketches, schematics, models, samples,
tools, computer or other apparatus programs, technical information, or other
confidential business information or data, in written, graphic or other tangible
form, clearly marked "Confidential" ("Confidential Information") obtained by
either party hereunder or in contemplation hereof, shall remain the owning
party's property. This Agreement in its entirety shall be considered
Confidential Information hereunder. All copies of such Confidential Information,
excluding this Agreement, shall be returned to the originating party upon
request. Unless such Confidential Information was previously known to the
obtaining party free of any obligation to keep it confidential or has been or is
subsequently made public by the other party or a third party, the obtaining
party shall use the same degree of care in keeping it confidential as it does in
keeping its own Confidential Information confidential but not less than a
reasonable degree of care. Such Confidential Information shall be used only in
performing hereunder; and may be used for other purposes only upon such terms as
may be agreed upon in writing. Confidential information does not include: (a)
information already known or independently developed by the recipient; (b)
information in the public domain received through no wrongful act on the part of
the recipient; (c) information received by the recipient from a third party who
to the best of recipient's knowledge was free to disclose it; or (d) information
disclosed pursuant to the provisions of a court order.

implication involving any form of remuneration whatsoever. VENDOR agrees, in the
event of an allegation of substance (the determination of which will be made
solely by BELLSOUTH) that there has been a violation hereof, VENDOR will
cooperate in every reasonable manner with BELLSOUTH in establishing whether the
allegation is true. Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement to the
contrary, if a material violation of this provision is found to have occurred

16.      ADVERTISING AND PUBLICITY

         In the advertising of any regulated network offer, BELLSOUTH retains
the right to demonstrate the various applications generically, or specifically

BELLSOUTH'S marketing personnel. These sessions will be provided at each of
BELLSOUTH'S branch marketing locations or via video and/or audio conference
bridging arrangements, as determined by BELLSOUTH, and shall consist of an
overview of the Product, its applications, and the information needed to qualify
an End-User for the possible purchase of the Product from the VENDOR. BELLSOUTH
shall have the right to reproduce such material and necessary documentation for
internal use only.

<PAGE>

same for internal use only.

18.      FORCE MAJEURE

         Neither party shall be responsible for any delay or failure in

failure is caused by fire, flood, lightning, explosion, war, strike, embargo,
government requirement, civil or military authority, act of God, acts or
omissions of carriers, or other similar causes beyond its control ("CONDITION").
If any such CONDITION occurs, the party delayed or unable to perform shall give

         Both parties expressly recognize that each party is both a seller and
reseller of products and services and that nothing agreed to herein is intended

         VENDOR expressly recognizes that BELLSOUTH is affiliated with
communication common carriers licensed by the Federal Communications Commission.
This Agreement may be subject to such changes or modifications as any such
regulatory body may from time to time direct in the exercise of its
jurisdiction. In the event of a substantial change or deviation from the state

execution of this Agreement which materially alters the obligations of either
party under this Agreement, the affected party shall have the option to

or condition. All obligations hereunder on VENDOR'S and/or BELLSOUTH'S part
incurred prior to the cancellation, termination, or expiration of this Agreement
shall survive such cancellation, termination, or expiration.

         The headings of the sections herein are inserted for convenience only
and are not intended to affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

23.      ASSIGNMENT/SUBCONTRACTING

         Any assignment or delegation, in whole or in part, of work to be
performed or of any other interest, right or obligation hereunder without
BELLSOUTH'S written consent, except an assignment confined solely to monies due
or to become due, and/or unless otherwise provided herein, shall be void. It is
expressly agreed that any assignment of monies shall be void to the extent that

right to assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, or any event or

         The validity, construction, interpretation and performance of this
entire Agreement and all transactions under it shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the domestic law of the State of Georgia, without
regard to the principles of conflict of laws. If any of the provisions of this
Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable under said law, such invalidity or
unenforceability shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the entire
Agreement but rather the entire Agreement shall be construed as if not
containing the particular invalid or unenforceable provision or provisions, and
the rights and obligations of VENDOR and BELLSOUTH shall be construed and
enforced accordingly.

25.      TERMINATION

         Either party may at any time, for its own convenience and without
cause, terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part, by giving the other party
at least thirty (30) days prior written notice without any charge, obligation or
