This Agreement is entered into this 31 January, 1994 by and between SAGEM S.A., Departement MORPHO Systemes whose address is 33, route de la Bonne Dame, 77300 FONTAINEBLEAU, FRANCE (hereinafter referred to as MORPHO) and XIMAGE corporation whose address is 1050 North Fifth Street, SAN JOSE, California 95112 (hereinafter referred to as XIMAGE) for the Customer Support and Software Maintenance.

    WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, XIMAGE and MORPHO have signed the ForceField PSS Agreement for the purchase of services and the use of Software referred to hereafter as the ForceField PSS System.

WHEREAS, XIMAGE has granted to MORPHO a perpetual and non-exclusive license, transferable only to the Kuwait Government and solely for use with the PSS to be installed and used as a portrait storage system in connection with the AFIS sold to the Kuwait Government in Kuwait.

1.    DEFINITIONS

The terms defined in this Section shall have the meaning as follows:





FIRST LEVEL OF MAINTENANCE means MORPHO will require the Kuwait Government to contact MORPHO maintenance personnel for all problems associated with the installed Force Field PSS System. MORPHO will respond with fixes and/or workarounds to keep the system operational. MORPHO personnel may document any software problems and refer them to XIMAGE for additional fixes or patches.

SECOND LEVEL OF MAINTENANCE means if Morpho's personnel can not start or keep the system operational because of software problems, XIMAGE should be contacted to provide all documented and replicated software Errors. XIMAGE will make best efforts to support Morpho by any means available. Such an undertaking is made in the knowledge that a telecommunications line between the site and XIMAGE may not be in existance.

PROGRAM means ForceField PSS software developed by XIMAGE including the Sybase and Focus software and includes all software provided under the Maintenance Agreement.

PROGRAM SPECIFICATIONS means the specifications published by XIMAGE for a particular version of the Program (if no such specification is available, then the relevant documentation for a particular version of the Program).

ERROR means any material failure to operate in accordance with the program specifications delivered from the specifications appended to the base agreement. Error includes malfunctions and defects.

2.   TERM OF AGREEMENT

XIMAGE's obligations hereunder shall become effective upon the      Effective Date and, unless sooner terminated as provided herein, shall      remain in full force and effect for at least one year thereafter. This      Agreement shall automatically renew for consecutive one (1) year terms      at XIMAGE's then prevailing rates at the end of each one (1) year term      unless either party gives at least sixty (60) days prior written notice      of the non-renewal of this Agreement.

3.   SOFTWARE MAINTENANCE SERVICES

XIMAGE will provide to MORPHO during the term hereof Software      Maintenance Services which shall include remedial maintenance service      (i.e, error fixing and/or work arounds) for any significant error,      malfunction or defect (collectively in Error) in the Software so that      the Software will operate in accordance with the specifications set      forth in the related documentation. Correction of Errors is subject to      MORPHO's prompt notification to XIMAGE of the nature and description of      the Error provided that the Error is not caused by the abuse, misuse or      neglect of the products by MORPHO. In addition, XIMAGE will provide the      following as additional Customer Support Services:

(a)  telephone support as reasonably requested by MORPHO at the rate of           $100 per hour for all hours in excess of 40 hours in any one-year           term;

(b)  on-site visits to MORPHO's sites as determined to be necessary by           Morpho for Error correction, unless error correction is normally           performed via Dial up from the XImage facility in San Jose;

(c)  give title to all modifications and improvements to the PSS           Software which XIMAGE generally makes available to its other           customers (at no additional Charge) under standard software           maintenance agreements relating to the Software.

If MORPHO requests XIMAGE to perform any other services, the related terms and conditions shall be based on further separate agreement between the parties. This Agreement and the rights and duties contained herein are not be deemed to cover maintenance services with respect to hardware. Such may be decided in accordance with paragraph 9.

If Software Maintenance      Services are performed outside regular business hours, MORPHO will pay      the additional charges, if any, as at XIMAGES then current charges.
