        its sublicense agreement, in which case Emony shall terminate the
        sublicense within thirty (30) days if such breach remain uncured. If
        this Agreement expires or is terminated for any reason, neither party
        will be liable to the other because of such expiration nor termination
        for damages for the loss of prospective profits, anticipated sales or
        good will. Termination of this Agreement or any license shall not limit
        either party from pursuing other remedies available to it, including
        injunctive relief, nor shall such termination relieve a party's
        obligation to pay all fees that have accrued or are otherwise owed by a
        party under this Agreement, any Order Form or any fees report. The
        parties' rights and obligations under Sections 2.3-2.5, 4.8, 5.4, and
        Articles VI, VII, and VIII shall survive termination of this Agreement.
        Upon termination of any Program license, Emony shall cease using, and
        shall return or destroy, all copies of the applicable Programs.

VII.    INDEMNITY, WARRANTIES, REMEDIES

7.1     INFRINGEMENT INDEMNITY. BackWeb will defend and indemnify Emony against
        a claim that the Programs infringe any U.S. copyright or patent,
        provided that: (a) Emony notifies BackWeb in promptly writing after
        notice of the claim; (b) BackWeb has sole control of the defense and all
        related settlement negotiations; provided, however, that BackWeb shall
        have not right to incur any material obligation on Emony's behalf except
        for the actions specified in the second paragraph of this Section; and
        (c) Emony provides BackWeb with the assistance, information and
        authority necessary to perform BackWeb's obligations under this Section.
        BackWeb will reimburse Emony's reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
        incurred in providing such assistance. BackWeb shall have no liability
        for any claim of infringement based on (a) use of a superseded or
        altered release of Programs by Emony if the infringement would have been
        avoided by the use of a current unaltered release of the Programs which
        BackWeb provides to Emony or (b) the combination or use of the Programs
        with software, hardware or other materials not furnished by BackWeb if
        the use of the software, hardware or other materials not furnished by
        BackWeb was the sole cause of the claim of infringement.

        If the Programs are held or are believed by BackWeb to infringe, BackWeb
        shall have the option, at its expense, to (a) modify the Programs to be
        noninfringing or (b) obtain for Emony a license to continue using the
        Programs. If BackWeb determines, in its sole discretion, that it is not
        commercially reasonable to perform either of the above options, then
        BackWeb may terminate the license for the infringing Programs and refund
        the license fees paid for those Programs, prorated over a five year term
        from the Commencement Date. This Section 7.1 states BackWeb's entire
        liability and Emony's exclusive remedy for infringement.

7.2     WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMERS.

        A. For each Program licensed to Emony, BackWeb warrants to Emony that:

        (i) for a period of ninety (90) days after the Commencement Date, each
        unmodified Program will operate substantially in accordance with the
        functional description provided the applicable Documentation when
        installed on the applicable Platform; and

        (ii) the Program will, to the extent supported by the underlying
        operating system and Emony's applications, be compliant with the
        millennium date change as provided on BackWeb's web site
        (www.backweb.com) under "Products."

        B. For services acquired under this Agreement, BackWeb warrants to Emony
        for a period of ninety (90) days from performance of the applicable
        service that its Technical Support, training and consulting services
        will be performed consistent with generally accepted industry standards.

        C. THE WARRANTIES ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER
        WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, THE IMPLIED
        WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
        BACKWEB DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PROGRAMS WILL OPERATE IN COMBINATIONS
        OTHER THAN AS SPECIFIED IN THE DOCUMENTATION OR THAT THE OPERATION OF
        THE PROGRAMS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE OR ERROR-FREE. BETA OR
        PRE-PRODUCTION RELEASES OF PROGRAMS ARE DISTRIBUTED "AS IS." EXCEPT WITH
        RESPECT TO ANY CONTENT PROVIDED BY BACKWEB, BACKWEB EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS
        RESPONSIBILITY FOR OR LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THE CONTENT
        OF INFORMATION TRANSMITTED BY EMONY OR ITS SUBLICENSEES OR TRANSMITTED
        TO END USERS OR THE RESULTS OF ANY SUCH TRANSMISSION.

7.3     EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. For any breach of the warranties contained in this
        Agreement, Emony's exclusive remedy, and BackWeb's entire liability,
        shall be:

        A. for Programs, BackWeb shall correct the Program errors that cause the
        breach of warranty or, if correction of the Programs is not commercially
        feasible, BackWeb shall replace the Programs with conforming; and

        B. for services, BackWeb shall reperform the deficient services that
        cause the breach of the warranty.

7.4     LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR
        ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES
        FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA OR USE, INCURRED BY EITHER PARTY OR
        ANY THIRD PARTY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT OR TORT, EVEN IF THE
        OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
        BACKWEB'S LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES HEREUNDER SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED THE
        AMOUNT OF FEES PAID BY EMONY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

        The provisions of this Agreement allocate the risks between BackWeb and
        Emony. BackWeb's pricing reflects this allocation of risk and the
        limitation of liability specified herein.

VIII.   GENERAL TERMS

8.1     NONDISCLOSURE. By virtue of this Agreement, the parties may have access
        to information that is confidential to one another ("Confidential
        Information"). Confidential Information shall be limited to the
        Programs, the terms and pricing under this Agreement, and all
        information clearly identified as confidential.

        A party's Confidential Information shall not include information that:
        (a) is or becomes a part of the public domain through no act or omission
        of the other party; (b) was in the other party's lawful possession prior
        to the disclosure and had not been obtained by the other party either
        directly or indirectly from the disclosing party; (c) is lawfully
        disclosed to the other party by a third party without restriction on
        disclosure; or (d) is independently developed by the other party.

        The parties agree to hold each other's Confidential Information in
        confidence during the term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2)
        years after termination of this Agreement. The parties agree, unless
        required by law, not to make each other's Confidential Information
        available in any form to any third party (except to each such party's
        agents or independent contractors) for any purpose other than the
        implementation of this Agreement. Each party agrees to take all
        reasonable steps to ensure that Confidential Information is not
        disclosed or distributed by its employees, agents or independent
        contractors in violation of the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding
        the above, BackWeb may refer to Emony as a customer, OEM and
        distribution partner in sales presentations, press releases, product
        brochures, financial or governmental reports, marketing vehicles and
        activities and on its website and may display Emony's logo in connection
        with such references.

8.2     COPYRIGHT. The Programs are copyrighted by BackWeb. Emony shall retain
        all BackWeb copyright notices on the Programs used by Emony under its
        Development Licenses or as Sublicensed by Emony. On all copies of the
        Application Package distributed by Emony, Emony shall include a
        reproduction of BackWeb's copyright notice(s) with reference to the
        portions of the Programs included in the Application Package. Such
        notices shall be placed on the documentation, the Application Package
        sign-on screen and the CD-ROM labels. Notwithstanding any copyright
        notice by Emony to the contrary, the copyright to the Programs included
        in the



                                       7
<PAGE>
        Application Package shall remain in and with BackWeb. Other than as
        specified above, on any reproduction or translation of any Programs,
        Documentation or promotional material, Emony agrees to reproduce
        BackWeb's copyright notices intact.

8.3     TRADEMARKS. "BACKWEB" and any other trademarks and service marks adopted
        by BackWeb to identify the Programs and other BackWeb products and
        services belong to BackWeb; Emony will have no rights in such marks,
        except as expressly set forth herein and as specified in writing from
        time to time. Emony shall have the right to use BackWeb's trademarks
        solely in furtherance of its distribution activities under this
        Agreement and such use of BackWeb's trademarks shall be under BackWeb's
        trademark policies and procedures in effect from time-to-time. Emony
        agrees not to use the trademark "BACKWEB" or any other mark likely to
        cause confusion with the BackWeb's trademarks as any portion of Emony's
        trade name or trademark for any other products of Emony. Emony shall
        have the right to use BackWeb's trademarks solely to refer to BackWeb's
        Programs, products and services.

8.4     RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PARTIES. In all matters relating to this Agreement,
        the parties will each act as an independent contractor. The relationship
        between BackWeb and Emony is that of licensor/licensee. Neither party
        will represent that it has any authority to assume or create any
        obligation, express or implied, on behalf of the other party, nor to
        represent the other party as agent, employee, or in any other capacity.
        Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit either party's
        right to independently develop or distribute software that is
        functionally similar to the other party's product, so long as
        proprietary information of the other party is not used in such
        development.

8.5     GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement, and all matters arising out of or
        relating to this Agreement, shall be governed by the laws of Israel.

8.6     NOTICE. All notices, including notices of address change, required to be
        sent hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been
        given when mailed by first class mail to the first address listed in the
        relevant Order Form (if to Emony) or to the BackWeb address on the Order
        Form (if to BackWeb). To expedite order processing, Emony agrees that
        BackWeb may treat documents faxed by Emony to BackWeb as original
        documents; nevertheless, either party may require the other to exchange
        original signed documents.

8.7     ASSIGNMENT. Neither party may assign this Agreement, or any part
        thereof, to a legal entity separate from such party, without the prior
        written consent of the other party hereto, such consent not to be
        unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the forgoing, either party may
        assign this Agreement and any Order Form to the surviving entity in a
        merger or reorganization or the purchaser of substantially all of the
        assets of that party, provided however that in the event that the
        acquiring entity is a direct competitor of the other, the prior written
        consent of the other party hereto shall be required, such consent not to
        be unreasonably withheld. In the event that a party reasonably refuses
        the assignment for the reasons set forth in the prior sentence, then
        such party shall have the right to terminate the Agreement in accordance
        with section VI herein and that shall be that party's sole and entire
        remedy with regards hereto.

8.8     SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid
        or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain
        in full force.

8.9     WAIVER. The waiver by either party of any default or breach of this
        Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent
        default or breach.

8.10    EXPORT ADMINISTRATION. Each party agrees to comply fully with all
        relevant export laws and regulations of the United States ("Export
        Laws") to assure that neither the Programs nor any direct product
        thereof are (1) exported, directly or indirectly, in violation of Export
        Laws; or (2) are intended to be used for any purposes prohibited by the
        Export Laws, including, without limitation, nuclear, chemical, or
        biological weapons proliferation.

8.11    RESTRICTED RIGHTS. If Emony distributes Programs to the United States
        government, the Programs shall be provided with "Restricted Rights" and
        Emony will place a legend, in addition to applicable copyright notices,
        on the documentation, and on the tape or diskette label, substantially
        similar to the following: The Programs are deemed to be "commercial
        computer software" and/or "commercial computer software documentation"
        pursuant to DFAR Section 227.7202 and FAR

product.

TECHNICAL CONTACTS

For each order for Technical Support services, the Customer must designate one
primary and one backup employee ("Technical Contacts"), to serve as liaisons
with BackWeb. The designated Technical Contact is the sole liaison between
Customer and BackWeb for all software product support and shall be based at the
customer's premises. To avoid interruptions in support services, customers must
notify BackWeb whenever their Technical Contact responsibilities are transferred
to another individual. The Customer will ensure that each Technical Contact is
trained on BackWeb's products.

PRIOR VERSIONS

BackWeb provides support for a specific release or version of a BackWeb product
for a minimum of six (6) months after BackWeb makes a subsequent release or
version of such product available, as an Update or otherwise. At its sole
discretion and control, BackWeb may replace specific components of the Programs
with other components and BackWeb shall only provide Technical Support for the
