         (b) Licensee hereby agrees to pay Sun [*] and the parties will

     3.  Section 3.1, Section VII of Exhibit C-2, and Section 5 of the First
Amendment to the Technology License and Distribution Agreement dated as of June
30, 1999 by and between the parties ("Amendment No. 1") are hereby deleted.
Further, Section 2.8(a) of the Agreement is modified to read in its entirety as
follows:

     "Java Test Suites are made available as part of Licensee's purchase of the
appropriate TCK support plan from Sun.

     4. Licensee Derivative Works may be distributed in source code form to
[*], provided that [*] (i) has entered into and has in effect a Sun Community
Source License with Sun for the same Technology, or (ii) is a Sun licensee of
the same Technology and expressly authorized in writing by Sun to share such
source code with Licensee. Licensee may not offer or impose any terms on any
such code that alter the rights, requirements or responsibilities of [*]. All
Derivative Works that Licensee shares hereunder must include a file documenting
the additions and changes Licensee made and the date of such additions and
changes. Licensee must also include in the file header the notice set forth in
Exhibit E. If it is not possible to put the notice in a particular source code
file due to its structure, then Licensee must include the notice in a location
(such as a relevant directory file), where a recipient would be most likely to
look for such a notice. Provided that [*] is fulfilling conditions (i) or (ii)
above, Licensee may receive Derivative Works of the same Technology from [*],
and may use, reproduce, modify, and incorporate such Derivative Works into
Products, to the same scope and extent and subject to the same conditions and
restrictions as with Technology.

     5. The second and third full sentences of Section 4 of Amendment No. 1 are
hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

     [*]

     6. The first and second full sentences of Section 10.1 of the Agreement are
hereby amended to extend the initial Term of the Agreement from five (5) years
from the Effective Date of the Agreement (i.e. the period ending March 19, 2003)
to the period ending March 19, 2006. Further, the parties hereby amend the
second full sentence of Section 10.1 to provide that Licensee shall have only
four (4) annual options to extend the term as provided therein. The parties
agree that nothing in


                                      -2-

this Amendment alters Licensee's obligation to pay [*] (Exhibit C-2, Section
IV.C) for the life of the Agreement (including any extensions).

     7. The parties hereby replace the words "operating system" with "operating
system or browser" in Section 1.11 of Amendment No. 1.

Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Amendment, defined terms shall
have the same meaning as defined in the Agreement. Except as otherwise
specifically provided in this Amendment, all other terms and conditions of the
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties have caused this
Amendment to be executed by their authorized representatives.
