when operated in accordance with the Documentation and other instructions
provided by SELECTICA, the Software will perform in accordance with the

the scope of this Agreement, and to pay all


                                                                               6

of such a claim or action, or possibility thereof; (ii) sole control and
authority over the defense or settlement thereof; and (iii) proper and full
information and assistance to settle and/or defend any such claim or action.
Without limiting the forgoing, if a final injunction is, or SELECTICA believes,
in its sole discretion, is likely to be, entered prohibiting the use of the
Software by Customer as contemplated herein, SELECTICA will, at its sole option
and expense, either (a) procure for Customer the right to use the infringing
Software as provided herein or (b) replace the infringing Software with
noninfringing, functionally equivalent products, or (c) suitably modify the
infringing Software so that it is not infringing; or (d) in the event (a), (b)

liable for any costs or expenses incurred without its prior written
authorization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SELECTICA assumes no liability for
infringement claims arising from (i) combination of the Software with the other
products not provided by SELECTICA, but not covering the Software alone, or (ii)
any modifications to the Software unless such modification was made by
SELECTICA. THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 7 STATE THE ENTIRE LIABILITY
AND OBLIGATIONS OF SELECTICA AND THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY OF CUSTOMER, WITH RESPECT
TO ANY ACTUAL OR ALLEGED INFRINGEMENT OF ANY PATENT, COPYRIGHT, TRADE SECRET,
TRADEMARK OR OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHT BY THE SOFTWARE.

SOFTWARE, DOCUMENTATION, OR OTHER MATERIALS OR SERVICES. EITHER PARTY'S
LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR DAMAGES WILL NOT, IN ANY EVENT, EXCEED THE

                                                                               8

Agreement. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement is binding upon, inures to
the benefit of and is enforceable by the parties and their respective successors
and assigns.

        9.5 NONWAIVER. Any failure of either party to insist upon or enforce
performance by the other party of any of the provisions of this Agreement or to
exercise any rights or remedies under this Agreement will not be interpreted or
construed as a waiver or relinquishment of such party's right to assert or rely
upon such provision, right or remedy in that or any other instance.

        9.6 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement,
and supersedes any and all prior agreements, between SELECTICA and Customer

language shall be controlling in all respects, and all versions hereof in any
other language shall not be binding to the parties hereto. All communications

English language.

        9.9 APPLICABILITY OF PROVISIONS LIMITING SELECTICA'S LIABILITY. The
provisions of this Agreement under which the liability of SELECTICA is excluded
or limited, shall not apply to the extent that such exclusions or limitations
are declared illegal or void under any applicable laws, unless the illegality or
invalidity is cured under such laws by the fact that the law of Illinois governs
this Agreement.

that the Software as delivered will operate prior to, during, and after, the
calendar year 2000 A.D. without error relating to date data, specifically

processing or acceptance of date data which represents or references different
centuries or more than one century, provided that all hardware, firmware and
other software used in conjunction with the Software properly exchanges accurate
and properly formatted date data with the Software. The Year 2000 Compliance

and end on the date after January 1, 2000, subsequent to which the Software has
operated without a breach of the Year 2000 Compliance Warranty for a consecutive

reasonable commercial efforts to correct the noncompliance, provided that
Customer notifies SELECTICA of the noncompliance within the Year 2000 Warranty
Period, and SELECTICA is able to reproduce the noncompliance as communicated by
Customer to SELECTICA. If after the expenditure of reasonable efforts, SELECTICA
is unable to correct any such noncompliance, SELECTICA may refund to Customer
all or an equitable portion of the license fee paid by Customer to SELECTICA for
such Software in full satisfaction of Customer's claims relating to such
noncompliance upon Customer's return of said Software.

          AN IMPLEMENTATION PROPOSAL FOR LOAN PRODUCTION OFFICE-ONLINE
                               BY: SELECTICA, INC.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND SCOPE

This proposal covers the scope of the engagement between LoanMarket Resources
L.L.C. ("Customer") and SELECTICA, Inc. ("SELECTICA") targeted to create the LPO
application, as specified in the "LPO-Online" document, consumer site
description document, and administration site description document published at
http://207.208.82.192, and the Customer specification attached to this Exhibit
C. SELECTICA intends to provide the ACE product set and consulting services
necessary to develop this application. This document describes the breakdown of
the functionality envisioned for this application in several packages
(independently developed and integrated feature sets). SELECTICA intends to
deploy fully usable packages in a phased manner and build the application
incrementally. This will allow Customer to get the application to production
early, garner user feedback and modify interfaces for maximum acceptances during
the application development life cycle.

BACKGROUND

Loan Production Office-Online ("LPO-Online") will enable consumer loan
originators, including mortgage bankers and brokers, finance companies, banks
and credit unions to leverage the Internet and automate customer relationship
development and management processes.

LPO-Online is an integrated front-office/back-office application: FRONT-OFFICE:
A Web-based store-front enabling loan originators to effectively merchandise
their products and gather applications from consumers shopping on the Web. Loan
officers operating in branch, phone center or decentralized environments can
also use this storefront as a sales automation tool.

BACK-OFFICE: An application processing system which, upon receipt of an
application, automatically procures a copy of the borrower's credit report, then
matches the borrower's needs and qualifications against the originator's array
of loan programs to identify the best loans available to the borrower.

LPO-ONLINE PACKAGES

LPO has 2 major users:

        -   Borrowers who want to borrow and want to get the lowest rate
            available and optimize their portfolio

        -   Loan Originators who provide programs to attract consumers and get
            the highest rate possible

Borrowers enter the LPO-Online site and "hunt" for a program that best suits
their needs. They may be expert "borrowers" or need guidance in the selection
process. Borrowers need to provide personal information (an application) that
allows the system to find the "best match" between their needs, profile and loan
program.

Loan Originators enter the LPO-Online site to provide information regarding
their loan programs they want to offer. They use the site to maintain the loan
programs, modifying them as necessary or adding new ones and deleting old ones.

The LPO-Online application packages are:


                                                                              20
<PAGE>   21

THE BORROWER PACKAGE

The Borrower Package contains the following modules:

        -   Loan Advisor (What Do I Qualify For?) that guides borrowers through
            differing loan program and qualification choices.

        -   Loan Application (including express application) that incrementally
            builds up the borrower information necessary to match a loan program
            and the consumer's ability to secure it. The Loan application will
            also allow an express application entry as envisioned in LOP-Online.

        -   Loan What-ifs that allow borrowers to specify thresholds and
            determine loan programs that best meet the requirements

        -   Loan Portfolio Manager that automates the process of creating
            strategies for borrowers.

THE LOAN ORIGINATOR PACKAGE

The Loan Originator Package contains the Loan Program Definition module that
allows lenders to input loan program characteristics such as product features,
underwriting guidelines, credit limit, pricing and loan valuation.

LPO-Online Phases

SELECTICA envisions that LPO is developed in phases to successively build and
cover the feature set for the Consumer and Loan Originator packages.

PHASE-1

        -   Borrower Loan Advisor

        -   Borrower Loan Application (with Save & Restore)

        -   Manual Loan Originator Loan Program Entry

PHASE-2

        -   Borrower Loan What-ifs

        -   Loan Originator Program definition (with Save & Restore)

PHASE-3

        -   Borrower Loan Portfolio Manager

        -   Loan Originator Reports & Analysis



                                                                              21

FACTORS AFFECTING DEVELOPMENT
ASSUMPTIONS, CONSTRAINTS, AND DEPENDENCIES

The purpose of this section is to document internal and external factors that
will affect the project plan and its execution. Proper steps will be taken to
ensure that all assumptions are fulfilled, dependencies taken care of, and that
expectations are properly set that take into account the project's constraints.

                                   ASSUMPTIONS

SELECTICA assumes that Customer will be available to assist with all the product
knowledge required to deliver the scope of work defined in this document.
SELECTICA will provide access to the software components produced by SELECTICA
required during the engagement. SELECTICA also assumes that Customer will
provide any other hardware or software required to successfully execute this
project. SELECTICA also assumes that Customer will make available all related
documentation and any associated resources, throughout the course of this
engagement, and that Customer management will provide timely decisions,
essential for the completion of the deliverables on time.

Software may include but is not limited to:

        -   ACE Enterprise, ACE Quoter, ACE Enterprise Manager software

        -   HTTP server (e.g. IIS)

        -   Servlet engine (e.g. JRUN)

        -   Oracle 7.3.4 or higher

Hardware (for development) may include but is not limited to:

        -   3 servers to host the http server, the ACE Enterprise server and the
            database server respectively

        -   Server's hardware specification is based on the anticipated
            production environment

SELECTICA also assumes that Customer will provide resources for the creative
design, navigation and flow and content of the LPO-Online application HTML
pages. SELECTICA will assist in the review and adaptation of these HTML
templates to the LPO-Online knowledge base and engine.

                                   CONSTRAINTS

The functionality mentioned in the deliverables will have to either work within
or work around the limitations of the environment. These include browser
capabilities, product capabilities, interface capabilities etc. SELECTICA will
test the LPO-Online on Netscape and Internet Explorer 4.x JavaScript 1.2
compliant browsers on Windows NT, 95 platforms.

                                  DEPENDENCIES

In order for the development process to be successful, SELECTICA personnel will
work closely with Customer personnel at appropriate times. Logistically, most of
the development work is envisioned at SELECTICA premises. Other tasks such as,
but not


                                                                              22
<PAGE>   23

limited to, project management, information gathering, application and
navigation flow design and reviews may be conducted at Customer premises as
necessary. The completed project will be deployed at Customer's hosting facility
or SELECTICA's Internet Data Center in San Jose.

CHANGE CONTROL PROCEDURES

Final design or user-interface changes, if any, will need to be made early in
the project. In order to meet the achieved delivery date of this project, we do
not expect any scope changes during the engagement. If there is a valid business
need for a scope change, then a written change request will be required. Change
requirements will be considered outside the scope of this project/proposal and
will be reviewed during or after the project has been completed.

PROPOSAL

DELIVERABLE

The deliverables from this engagement are as follows (for each Phase):

        -   Borrower and Loan Originator knowledge base

        -   HTML based front end, tagged to integrate with the knowledge base

        -   Quote server database

The entire deliverable will be packaged into an application enabled through
Customer's site.

APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT SERVICES

SELECTICA will provide the implementation services to create the Customer
Borrower and Loan Originator knowledge base, tag the application HTML templates,
and test and deploy the application. SELECTICA envisions a 15-20 person-days
effort to help Customer create the detailed requirements and functional
specification for LPO-Online. This includes reviewing the demo application
provided by Customer, determining the rules and constraints within each
attribute of the borrower profile, loan application and loan program, as well as
the complete navigation and flow of the user interface. SELECTICA expects that
Customer and its creative content team are present, available and participating
in this specification process. SELECTICA also expects that this team reviews and
approves the specification and schedule before actual design and implementation
start. This will help better estimate the time required to design, implement,
test and deploy the application. It is anticipated that a detailed schedule will
be available at the end of the Functional Specification activity.

EFFORT ESTIMATE

A rough estimate of the effort in person-days for this engagement is as follows:

interface and site integration and deployment activities.

CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES & DELIVERABLES

Customer is responsible for the final deployment success of the configuration
application to its user community. SELECTICA can best assist in this endeavor by
providing the appropriate personnel to provide timely information, review and
testing of LPO-Online. In particular:

        -   Appoint an Customer project manager for this engagement. The project
            manager will be the central point of contact for SELECTICA for all
            product, schedule and resource-related issues, reviews, and decision
            making. The project manager is also responsible to provide access to
            and time with personnel with critical product and selling knowledge.

        -   Participate in the functional specification and requirements
            analysis and provide timely review and approval.

        -   Assemble a user team to review all designs and flows for LPO-Online.
            The users are in the best position to evaluate what works for them.
            This team would be responsible for timely reviews and acceptances of
            all deliverables.


                                                                              25
<PAGE>   26

        -   Provide graphic and web designers to create the HTML templates for
            LPO-Online. SELECTICA expects to work closely with this team during
            this process to ensure that the application being developed and the
            flow meets SELECTICA's requirements and adheres to the standards and
            best practices encouraged for SELECTICA's deployments. Customer's
            responsibilities in the design and development include:

                -   Develop the HTML templates for the application.

                -   Develop any copy, help-text and help-system and any graphic
                    elements.

        -   Provide a test team to create functional and acceptance test plans,
            test scenarios and then perform acceptance and final testing.


                                                                              26

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

This proposal assumes acceptance of SELECTICA Inc. "Consulting Services: General
Terms and Conditions" as provided in this Exhibit C..

        SELECTICA INC. CONSULTING SERVICES: GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.  The services that SELECTICA will perform for LOANMARKET RESOURCES, the
    Client (the "Services") are described on the attached Statement of Work and
    Authorization, and in any further Work Authorizations entered into by
    SELECTICA and Client referencing this Work Authorization.

2.  Per Exhibit "B" of this Agreement, Client will pay SELECTICA for Services
    actually rendered at the Billing Rate stated in the applicable Work
    Authorization, and for all actual and reasonable travel, lodging and other
    out-of-pocket expenses incurred in the course of performing the Services.
    Expenses will be incurred and documented in accordance with SELECTICA's
    standard policies, which will be reviewed with Client at Client's request
    and, if appropriate, modified at the request of Client to conform to
    Client's standard expense policies. SELECTICA shall submit invoices
    identifying the Work Authorization, the Services provided, applicable
    Billing Rate(s) and expenses. Any taxes incurred in connection with Services
    (other than taxes imposed on SELECTICA's earnings generally or referred to
    in Section 3 below) will be billed to, and paid by Client in addition to
    Project Fees and Expenses. Payment is due within thirty (30) days of the
    invoice date. SELECTICA may suspend work and withhold Deliverables in the
    event a properly submitted and valid invoice is not paid within thirty days
    of notice of nonpayment, and may charge interest at a rate of one percent
    per month on any outstanding balance more than forty-five days overdue.


3.  SELECTICA is an independent contractor, and no Work Authorization shall be
    construed to create an employment relationship between the parties, whether
    for tax or any other purpose. Neither party shall have the right to bind the
    other to any agreement with a third party or to incur any obligation or
    liability on behalf of the other party. SELECTICA and its personnel shall
    not be considered employees of Client. SELECTICA will, during the term of
    this Agreement, maintain at SELECTICA's expense all necessary insurance for
    its personnel, including but not limited to worker's compensation,
    disability, unemployment insurance, and general liability insurance.
    SELECTICA will provide client with certification of insurance upon request.
    SELECTICA will be responsible for employment taxes, worker's compensation,
    disability, or unemployment compensation insurance, premiums or

                                                                              27
<PAGE>   28

    claims levied upon or attributable to the services rendered by SELECTICA,
    and SELECTICA's personnel, including but not limited to, all state and
    federal FICA, worker's compensation, disability, unemployment, withholding
    taxes, premiums and claims.

4.  Subject only to payment of applicable Project fees, expenses and taxes,
    Client is granted an irrevocable, unlimited, world wide, freely transferable
    right and license to install, reproduce, use, modify, create derivative
    works of any software corrections, scripts, triggers, other modifications or
    enhancements, technical documentation, reports, analysis or other
    deliverables to be developed or prepared by SELECTICA and provided to Client
    as part of the Services ("Deliverables").

5.  SELECTICA warrants that the Services will be performed as described in the
    Work Authorization by appropriately trained and qualified personnel using
    reasonable skill and diligence; provided, however, that (i) SELECTICA shall
    have received written notice of the work that Client claims does not conform
    to the foregoing warranty within thirty days of the date on which the work
    was completed, and (ii) Client's sole remedy and SELECTICA's sole obligation
    in the event of a breach of the foregoing warranty shall be to either
    re-perform the nonconforming work or to refund the Project Fees and Expenses
    incurred by the Client for the nonconforming work. EXCEPT FOR THE FOREGOING
    SENTENCE, SELECTICA DOES NOT MAKE ANY GUARANTY, WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION,
    EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY AS TO
    QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR
    NONINFRINGEMENT).

6.  SELECTICA shall defend any claim, suit or proceeding, and pay any settlement
    amounts or damages awarded by a court of final jurisdiction, against Client
    arising out of claims by third parties that a Deliverable infringes any
    copyright, patent, trade secret or other intellectual property right. The
    foregoing indemnification obligation (i) shall only apply to a Deliverable
    for which client has paid all applicable fees; and (ii) shall not apply to
    any claim of infringement based on any modification of the Deliverable or
    the combination, operation or use of the Deliverable with materials not
    supplied by SELECTICA. In the event of a claim of infringement, SELECTICA
    shall have the option, at its expense (i) to procure for Client the right to
    continue using the infringing Deliverable, (ii) to replace such Deliverable
    with a non-infringing product substantially similar in features and
    functionality, (iii) to modify such Deliverable to make it non-infringing
    without materially affecting features or functionality, or (iv) to grant to
    Client a refund of the fees for such Deliverable in exchange for its return
    and the termination of the license to it. This section constitutes the
    entire and exclusive obligation of SELECTICA with respect to any
    infringement of any intellectual property right.

7.  As a condition to the foregoing, the Client must (i) promptly notify
    SELECTICA in writing of the claim, suit or proceeding for which
    indemnification is sought, (ii)

                                                                              28
<PAGE>   29

    permit SELECTICA to have sole control, and (iii) reasonably cooperate with
    SELECTICA in the defense or settlement of the claim, suit or proceeding.


8.  NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR (I) SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL,
    CONSEQUENTIAL, TORT OR COVER DAMAGES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES
    RESULTING FROM LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, BUSINESS OR GOODWILL, WHETHER OR NOT
    ADVISED OR AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, (II) ANY CLAIM THAT
    AROSE MORE THAN THREE YEARS PRIOR TO THE INSTITUTION OF SUIT THEREON, OR
    (III) MONETARY DAMAGES IN EXCESS OF THE FEES AND EXPENSES PAID BY CLIENT
    UNDER THE WORK AUTHORIZATION OR AUTHORIZATIONS THAT DIRECTLY RELATE TO THE
    CLAIM OR CLAIMS OUT OF WHICH THE DAMAGES HAVE ARISEN. The amount of any
    monetary damages to which SELECTICA may be entitled is in addition to, and
    not in lieu of, the fees, expenses and other amounts due SELECTICA from
    Client. The limitation on the amount of monetary damages shall not apply to
    the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 6 above.

9.  Either party may terminate a Work Authorization at any time on fifteen (15)
    days prior written notice; provided that upon termination Client shall pay
    SELECTICA for Services, work-in-progress and expenses incurred prior to the
    effective date of termination. Upon the termination of a Work Authorization,
    the parties shall return any Confidential Information received in tangible
    form, and SELECTICA shall deliver to Client all documents and other
    materials received from Client in the course of providing Services under the
    Work Authorization and, to the extent paid for by Client, copies of all
    Deliverables or portions of Deliverables prepared pursuant to the Work
    Authorization. The General Terms and Conditions shall survive the
    termination of any Work Authorization.

10. The Services have been specially ordered and commissioned by Customer as a
    "Work Made for Hire" and the Deliverables may be incorporated in existing
    Customer works as a compilation or collective work. The parties agree that
    all copyrights in the Deliverables shall be owned by Customer. However, the
    parties acknowledge that certain intellectual property of SELECTICA,
    including copyrights and trademarks, which existed prior to the Agreement
    and prior to the Services ("Pre-Existing Assets") may be incorporated in the
    Deliverables, and SELECTICA shall own and retain all Pre-Existing Assets in
    such elements of the Deliverables. The parties acknowledge that the
    intellectual property rights in and to the Software referenced in the
    License Agreement shall be Pre-Existing Assets. Subject only to payment of
    applicable Project fees, expenses and taxes, Customer is granted an
    irrevocable, unlimited (subject to the provisions of Exhibit A to the
    License Agreement), world wide, royalty free, non-exclusive, freely
    transferable right and license to use the Pre-Existing Assets only in
    conjunction with the Deliverables. No other rights in or to the Pre-Existing
    Assets, including but not limited to any right to use them independently of
    the Deliverables, are granted or implied. Subject to the foregoing
    provisions of this

                                                                              29
<PAGE>   30

    Section 4 of this Exhibit C, SELECTICA hereby assigns to Customer, its
    successors and assigns, all rights, title and interest in and to the
    Deliverables including, without limitation the following: (i) any U.S.
    copyrights that SELECTICA may acquire in the Deliverables and all copyrights
    and equivalent rights in the Deliverables throughout the world; and (ii) all
    rights in and title to any inventions, ideas, designs, concepts, techniques,
    discoveries, or improvements, whether or not patentable, which are first
    developed in the course of SELECTICA's creation of the Deliverables,
    including but not limited to all trade secrets, utility and design patent
    rights; and (iii) any documents, magnetically or optically encoded media, or
    other materials created by SELECTICA under this Agreement. Subject to the
    provisions of this Section 10, SELECTICA shall execute and deliver such
    instruments and take such other action as may be requested by Customer to
    perfect or protect Customer's rights in the Deliverables and to carry out
    the assignments contemplated above.

11. General Terms and Conditions and the applicable Work Authorization
    constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede all
    previous negotiations, agreements, and other communications, whether oral or
    written, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. Any variance from
    or addition to the terms of this agreement contained in any purchase order
    or other written notification will be of no effect. This agreement may not
    be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of the other,
    except for assignments to affiliated entities, may be modified in any way
    except in writing signed by both parties and shall be governed by California
    law. The invalidity or unenforceability of one or more provisions of this
    agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any of the
    other provisions and this agreement shall be construed in all respects as if
    such invalid or unenforceable provisions were omitted.
