1. General Background. Jabber licenses certain software (“Software”) and associated documentation (“Documentation”), as defined and described in Exhibit A hereto, incorporated herein by this reference. All references herein to Software shall include enhancements and upgrades thereto as they are made available, including Major Releases, Minor Releases, and New Modules integrated into the Software (as all such terms are defined below and subject to Distributor’s rights to such items as set forth in Exhibit C hereto). Distributor intends to create and offer licenses for one or more products (the “Products”), a description of which appears in Exhibit B hereto, incorporated herein by this reference. Distributor seeks to incorporate the Software into its Products. Jabber wishes to grant to Distributor the right to distribute the resulting Products containing the Software, and to copy and distribute the Documentation, for those limited purposes.
2. Statement of Agreement. Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree to the following terms, conditions and obligations.
3. Grant of License from Jabber to Distributor. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, Jabber hereby grants Distributor a non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual, worldwide license to:
(i) use, sublicense, modify, create derivative works of, copy and reproduce the source code for the Software (hereinafter “Source Code”) (including for Alterations as described in Section 6 hereto) solely to produce such changes to the Source Code as may be necessary to ensure compatibility with the Products, with the proviso that Source Code is provided only if so indicated on Exhibit A hereto, incorporated herein by this reference, and Distributor’s license to the Source Code pursuant to this Agreement is conditional upon payment of a separate Source Code License Fee as specified in Exhibit D hereto, incorporated herein by this reference;
(ii) modify, create derivative works of, copy and reproduce the Documentation to describe the Software, unmodified or modified pursuant to Section 3(i);
(iii) reproduce copies of the object code of the Software, unmodified or modified pursuant to Section 3(i), and the Documentation (in whole or in part), unmodified or modified pursuant to Section 3(ii), provided that each unit of any Product incorporating the Software shall incorporate the Software into the Product in such a way that the Software shall not be available to a user on a stand-alone basis independent of the Product; and
(iv) market, publicly perform, publicly display, sublicense and distribute the Software in Europe directly or indirectly through Third Party Resellers.
(v) The rights granted under Section 3(iv) are exclusive as to Affiliates of Distributor. “Affiliates” is hereby defined as an entity that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, Distributor. The term “control” (including the terms “controlling,” “controlled by” and “under common control with”) means the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise.
4. Exclusions from Grant of License. No right is granted to distribute the Source Code.
5. Proprietary Rights. Distributor acknowledges that, as between Jabber and Distributor, Jabber controls all right, title and interest in the Software and Documentation. Except as expressly provided herein, Jabber does not grant to Distributor any other right or license, either express or implied, in the Software or Documentation. Distributor shall not reverse engineer,
modify, adapt, translate or create derivative works based on the Software or Documentation, or knowingly permit any third party to engage in the foregoing, except as specifically authorized by the terms of this Agreement.
6. Ownership of Modifications. Any modifications, adaptations or derivative works made from the Source Code will be owned as set forth in this Section:
(i) Modifications to Software. Distributor agrees to disclose to Jabber all modifications, adaptations, derivative works and Bug Fixes (“Alterations”) to the Software that it makes, and hereby assigns and transfers to Jabber all right, title and interest in all such modifications, adaptations, derivative works and Bug Fixes, including all intellectual property rights therein only if Jabber incorporates them into the Software. A “Bug Fix” is a modification to the Source Code that removes a reproducible defect in the Software that causes the Software to fail to conform to its written specifications. Jabber may, in its sole discretion, incorporate any Alterations developed by Distributor into the Software. If Jabber does not incorporate an Alteration into the Software, Jabber will provide to Distributor suggestions with regard to potential changes to the Alteration to make it more acceptable; however, Jabber retains sole discretion to determine whether to incorporate any Alterations into the Software.
(ii) New Modules. Distributor shall retain ownership of any New Modules created by Distributor for use with the Software. A “New Module” is an external module that does not use any of the Source Code, except as an interface to the Software (“New Modules”). If Jabber and Distributor agree to integrate a New Module into the Software in a Minor or Major Release, Distributor will assign and transfer to Jabber all right, title and interest in such New Module. (iii) Modifications to Documentation. Distributor shall retain ownership of its changes to Documentation. Jabber reserves the right to review and suggest changes to the form, content and packaging of Documentation related to the Software and Distributor agrees to implement all reasonable changes requested by Jabber.
7. Software License Agreement. Distributor shall ensure that each copy of the Software it distributes, alone or through its Third Party Resellers, to its/their Customers (“Customers”) be sublicensed under the terms of an End-user agreement within the limit of the rights granted by Jabber to Distributor. Such an agreement (EULA) to the extent necessary to protect Jabber’s right as provided in this Agreement, shall contain provisions substantially similar to provisions specified in Exhibit E. Upon Jabber’s request, Distributor will keep Jabber apprised of its activities, if any, to enforce its EULA with particular Customers. In addition, Jabber shall have the right to enforce Distributor’s EULA as a third party beneficiary. Distributor agrees that: (i) Jabber may join Distributor as a named plaintiff in any lawsuit involving Jabber’s rights or reputation brought by Distributor against Customer, and (ii) Distributor will take such other actions, give such information and render such aid, as may be reasonably necessary to allow Jabber to bring and prosecute such suits. Distributor shall not be required to disclose to Jabber Confidential Information regarding Customers.
8. Distribution Agreements. Distributor shall have the right to appoint, in accordance with written distribution agreements (“Distribution Agreements”), Third Party Resellers to distribute, market, sell, and sublicense its Products created under and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Distributor shall incorporate by reference the terms of this Agreement into said Distribution Agreements so as to notify Third Party Resellers that they must comply with the applicable terms of this Agreement, provided, however, that all pricing and payment terms hereof shall be deemed to be Confidential Information, and nothing herein shall obligate Distributor to disclose any confidential provisions herein to its Third Party Resellers. Each Distribution Agreement shall expressly state that the Distribution Agreement shall terminate without further action on the part of Jabber in the event that this Agreement is terminated, provided, however, that Distributor and its Third Party Resellers may fulfill obligation they incurred to Customers prior to such termination date. Distributor shall not allow Third Party Resellers access to the Source Code provided to Distributor under this Agreement.
9. Export Control. Each Party will comply, and Distributor will take all reasonable steps to ensure that its Third Party Resellers are in compliance, with all relevant laws governing such Party regarding export of the Software and of the Products. Each Party shall indemnify and hold the other harmless from any claim that it has breached this section, and furthermore Distributor shall indemnify Jabber to the extent that Distributor is likewise indemnified by its Third Party Resellers for their failure to comply with their applicable export laws.
10. Deliverables and Shipping. Jabber shall provide to Distributor one copy of the Source Code in a commercially reasonable format, and instruction for generating any per-copy identifying information specified in Exhibit A hereto (if any), with Bug Fixes, enhancements and upgrades as of the Effective Date of this Agreement. Jabber shall provide Documentation in both electronic and printed hard copy form, including artwork if appropriate. Shipment is F.O.B. Jabber.

11. Enhancements and Upgrades. At Distributor’s option, Jabber shall provide to Distributor new releases, if any, of the Software, and Documentation describing those new releases, only as described in future Maintenance agreement, and upon the payment of a Annual Maintenance and Support Fees. To conclude such an agreement, Jabber will make a fair and reasonable offer for such maintenance before November, 1st 2001.
12. Installation and Related Services. Distributor or, at Distributor’s option, its Third Party Resellers, or its/their Customers, are responsible for installation of the Software, and for training of users, data conversion and other services necessary to install and use the Software.
13. Fees, Records and Report. In consideration for the rights granted under this Agreement, Distributor agrees to pay Jabber the amounts specified in Exhibit D hereto. Distributor further agrees to maintain records and provide reports as specified in Exhibit D. Distributor agrees not to refer, and not to allow its Third Party Resellers to refer, to the Software as free or imply that the Software is included free with the Products, or refer to other Jabber product prices in relation to the Software or make any other similar claims, whether via advertising, packaging or any other form of communication, printed, verbal or otherwise, without Jabber’s prior written agreement. Distributor’s making of any such claim, or allowing Third Party Resellers to make such claim, shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement.
14. Payment Terms. Amounts due shall be considered paid when Jabber is in receipt of the amount due or upon confirmation of receipt by a bank designated by Jabber. For all payments not received within forty-five (45) days of the due date, a late payment fee shall accrue daily on such unpaid amounts at the rate of one-and-one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower.

Distributor shall reproduce on each copy of the Software and on any Documentation supplied with the Software, wherever a trademark notice including the Distributor’s own name appears, the trademark notices specified in Exhibit A hereto.
18. Warranties.
(i) Media Warranty. Jabber warrants that the media containing the Software, the Source Code and Documentation shall be free of material defects (the “Media Warranty”).

(ii) Express Warranties. Jabber expressly warrants that the performance of the rights and obligations set forth under this Agreement will not breach any other agreement or arrangement by which Jabber is bound. Jabber expressly warrants that it has the right and authority to enter into this Agreement and to license the Software and Source Code to Distributor in accordance with the terms hereof. Jabber expressly warrants that it is not aware of any claim that Software infringes any rights of any third party. Jabber shall, at its expense, defend any suit or claim brought against Distributor and shall indemnify Distributor against an award of damages and costs against Distributor by a final court judgment based on a claim that Distributor’s or its Customers’ use of Software infringes a third-party patent or copyright, if Distributor: (a) notifies Jabber in writing of the suit or claim within ten (10) days after Distributor receives notice; (b) gives Jabber sole authority to defend or settle the suit or claim; (c) gives Jabber all information in Distributor’s control concerning the suit or claim; and (d) reasonably cooperates and assists Jabber, at Jabber’s expense, with defense of the suit or claim.

(iii) Exclusion of Other Warranties. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION, ALL SOFTWARE PROVIDED HEREUNDER IS PROVIDED “AS IS.” NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION IN THIS
3
AGREEMENT, JABBER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE USE OF THE PRODUCTS SHALL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE, OR THAT ALL DEFICIENCIES OR ERRORS ARE CAPABLE OF BEING CORRECTED.

In the event that this Agreement is terminated under this section 19(ii), Distributor shall cease to use the infringing Software, and Jabber shall pay Distributor, as Distributor’s sole and exclusive remedy against Jabber for said termination, an amount equal to two times the Fees paid under this Agreement for the infringing Software less any cumulative amortization or depreciation of that Software by Distributor on its financial statements as of the date when Jabber terminates said Agreement.
(iii) Other Limitations of Liability.

EXHIBIT C
(To the Jabber OEM Software License Agreement dated 31 October 2001)
Enhancements, Upgrades and Support
Background. Jabber has licensed certain Software to Distributor. Distributor desires to have Jabber maintain and/or support that Software during the term of this Maintenance and Support Agreement.
| 1. | Definitions. |
“Support” means Jabber’s support to the Distributor. Jabber does not provide support directly to customers of Distributor.
“Response Time” means the length of time between when the Distributor reports a problem and when Jabber delivers an initial meaningful response.
“Release Number” means the three-integer number, of the form A.B.C. or two-integer number, of the form A.B (equivalent to A.B.0), by which Jabber identifies a new release of the Software. The integer A identities the “Major Release,” the integer B identifies the “Minor Release, and the integer C identities the “Service Release” of the Software, as follows:
| • | Service Release. Successive Service Releases denote bug fixes or minor improvements with no significant changes in specification. |
| • | Minor Release. Successive Minor Releases denote minor new features, improvements and enhancements within the framework of an existing specification. |
| • | Major Releases. Successive Major Releases denote major new features, improvements and enhancements within the framework of an existing specification, or architectural changes in or additions to the specification. |
“Severity Levels” means the categorization, by Jabber, of a problem with the Software reported by Distributor, as follows:
| • | Severity Level 1: Catastrophic product failures that do not have a viable workaround, including any failure that causes a complete interruption of service of more than one (1) hour in any 24 hour time frame, or a complete interruption of service of shorter duration in which there are 5 incidences in any 5 day time frame. Catastrophic failures also include loss or damage to the user registration database and/or damage to server configuration files and/or breach of security, but specifically do not include loss of user messages. Finally, Severity Level 1 failures include the complete impairment or lack of use of major systems functionality. Severity Level 1 issues may be downgraded to Severity Level 2 for final disposition, when an acceptable workaround is available. |
| • | Jabber will respond to Distributor with a temporary workaround or with what action it plans to take on a best effort, commercially feasible basis, within 4 hours from the time the problem is reported. |
| • | Jabber will propose a correction or workaround on a best effort, commercially feasible basis from the time when the problem is reported, with a goal of 24-hour response from the time the problem was reported. In addition, Jabber will use best effort to develop a correction that avoids the problem to the exclusion of all other work. |
| • | Severity Level 2: Severity Level 2 issues include minor impairment to major system functionality as well as major impairment of minor systems functionality. Severity Level 2 issues also includes performance impairment under ‘normal’ conditions of operation with appropriate systems and network conditions. |
21
SPECIMEN SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT
| • | Jabber will, on a best effort, commercially feasible basis, propose, develop and provide to Distributor a workaround within 48 hours as from the reception of the form of anomaly. |
| • | Jabber will propose a correction within 96 hours as from the reception of the form of anomaly; Jabber will have an additional ten (10) days to develop the correction and provide it to the Distributor. Severity Level 2 issues, that were not originally downgraded from Severity Level 1, may be downgraded to Severity Level 3 for final disposition, if a workaround is provided to the Distributor. |
| • | Severity Level 3: Severity Level 3 issues are defined as minor problems with minor functionality, cosmetic issues, or problems that do not fall within Severity Level 1 or 2. Jabber promises to make reasonable commercial efforts to resolve these problems in the next Service Release or Minor Release of the Software. |
| • | Enhancement requests: Enhancement requests are of Severity Level 4. Jabber will consider, at its discretion, all enhancement requests for a future implementation of the Software. |
| 2. | Maintenance Plans. Jabber will provide, upon payment of the First Year Maintenance Fee specified below, new Releases of the Software that are released during the Initial Term of this Maintenance and Service Agreement, and for Extended Terms upon payment of the Annual Maintenance Fee in effect and published by Jabber at the time of renewal. Distributor selects Major Upgrades Maintenance Plan. Jabber will provide to Distributor, at no additional charge, Minor Release and Major Releases of the Software that are released by Jabber during the Initial or Extended Term of this Maintenance and Service Agreement. The First Year Maintenance Fee will be equal to 12% of the license fees owed Jabber under the terms of the OEM Software License Agreement. |
| 3. | Support Plans. Jabber will provide, upon payment of the First Year Support Fee equal to 8% of the license fees owed Jabber under the terms of the OEM Software License Agreement specified below, technical support during the Initial Term to address problems with the Software reported by Distributor to Jabber, and for Extended Terms upon payment of the Annual Support Fee in effect and published by Jabber at the time of renewal. Jabber will also distribute Service Releases to Distributor. Distributor hereby selects OEM Gold Level Support, whereby Jabber provides email, online Jabber and telephone support 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, and promises to make reasonable commercial efforts to provide a Response Time of four (4) hours. |
Technical Personnel: In addition. Jabber will provide the services of technical personnel to assist the distributor with development issues or to advise the Distributor with regard to the Software. Technical personnel will be available on a commercially-reasonable basis for short-term responses or assistance lasting less than four (4) hours.
