terms of the Business Alliance Program Agreement between the Alliance Member
and Oracle effective 28-Jun, 1996 (the "Agreement") and the terms set forth
below.
1. PROGRAM DISTRIBUTION
1.1 SUBLICENSE OF PROGRAMS AND TERMS
The Alliance Member shall have the right to market and grant
Sublicenses of Full Use Programs or Deployment Programs which are
available in production release and listed on Oracle's Price List in
effect at the time the Programs are ordered from Oracle to Sublicense
to a Sublicensee: provided, however, the Alliance Member shall have no
right to Sublicense any Programs designated as Oracle Applications
Programs, Oracle Express Programs, Limited Production Programs, or
other Programs specified by Oracle from time-to-time without the prior
written consent of Oracle. The Alliance Members shall have the right
to market and grant Sublicenses of Full Use or Deployment Programs for
use on Designated Systems in conjunction with the Intergrated System to
Sublicensees. Each copy of the Full Use or Deployment Programs
distributed shall be for the Sublicensee's own internal use in the
Territory only on a single Designated System limited to a maximum
number of Users.
To acquire Programs for Sublicensing to Sublicensees, the Alliance
Member shall order such Programs from Oracle. Each order shall specify
the applicable Programs, maximum number of Users, computer/operating
system configuration, fees, shipping location, and any other information
required by Oracle for processing the order. Orders for Trial
Sublicenses shall be clearly marked on the face of the Order Form.
1.2 DISTRIBUTION UNDER ORACLE AGREEMENT
In addition to the Sublicense rights specified in Section 2.3.A of
the Agreement and notwithstanding the terms of such Section and Section

market and grant Sublicenses of Full Use Programs and Deployment Programs
in conjunction with the Integrated System to Sublicensees under a standard
Oracle Software License and Services Agreement in lieu of Sublicensing the
Programs under a written Sublicense agreement.
The Alliance Member may submit orders for Sublicenses to Oracle for
its acceptance.
With each such order, the Alliance Member shall submit a standard
Oracle Software License and Services Agreement executed by the applicable
Sublicensee, or shall reference on such order that the Programs will be
licensed to the Sublicensee subject to an existing license agreement
effective between the Sublicensee and Oracle (the "Oracle Agreement").
In addition, as part of the Oracle Agreement, the Alliance Member shall
obtain the Sublicensee's written agreement that the ordered Programs and
services are subject to the terms and conditions of the Oracle Agreement.
If the Sublicensee is a federal agency, the Alliance Member shall
submit with each such order a written document executed by an authorized
Sublicensee contracting officer which contains the following provision:
"This is an open market order placed pursuant to terms identical to the
terms and conditions of Oracle's General Services Administration (GSA)
Schedule A Contract for Oracle Programs current as of the order date,
with the exception of the maximum order limitations, discounts,
maintenance, training units and other discounts specific to the
applicable Oracle GSA Schedule. No other pre-printed or reference terms
and conditions shall apply." This written document shall be deemed the
applicable Oracle Agreement.
For orders which include only shrinkwrapped Oracle Programs, the
Oracle Agreement may consist of a written obligation by the Sublicensee
to use the Programs under the terms of the shrinkwrap license agreement.
The Alliance Member shall indemnify Oracle for any claims, damages,
or losses arising from failure to obtain any Oracle Agreement.
If the order specifies that the Programs are to be delivered to the
Alliance Member, the Alliance Member shall have the right to re-deliver
the Programs with their original package to the applicable Sublicensee.
1.3 FULL USE AND DEPLOYMENT PROGRAMS
For the purposes of this Addendum, "Full Use Programs" shall mean

the hardware and software products having Value-Added which are developed,
sold, and/or licensed with the Programs to a Sublicensee by the Alliance
Member to satisfy such Sublicensee's internal business requirements and
objectives. For purposes of the Agreement, the Integrated System will be
regarded as the Alliance
Member's Value-Added Package which is described in the attached Value-
Added Attachment. The Integrated System shall be regarded as "Value-
Added" if the following materials are provided as part of the Integrated
System by the Alliance Member: (a) non-Oracle developed software: (b)
customized programming or customized consulting; and (c) other computer
products or components.
1.5 TRIAL SUBLICENSES
The Alliance Member shall be entitled to grant, at no charge, up to
(10) temporary Trial Sublicenses of the Programs at any one time. Such
Sublicenses shall be for evaluation purposes only and shall be for a
period not to exceed thirty (30) days. The Alliance Member shall pay
Oracle Sublicense fees for any Trial Sublicenses in excess of thirty (30)
days. Each such Trial Sublicense shall be Sublicensed under a Sublicense
agreement which provides for such trial use or under an Oracle Trial
License Agreement, as the applicable Oracle Agreement.

order to Oracle for such Programs, if no shipment is required.
Fees for Sublicense of Programs shall be due and payable on the date
that Oracle ships the applicable Programs and shall be deemed overdue if
not paid within thirty-one (31) days of the due date. The Alliance
Member shall not be relieved of its obligation to pay Sublicense fees
owed to Oracle by the nonpayment of such fees by the Sublicensee.

Distributor) has completed all necessary government formalities in such
country and upon reasonable request by Oracle, the Alliance Member (or
its Distributor) provides evidence of completion of such formalities to
Oracle. The Alliance Member will indemnify Oracle for any losses, costs,
liability, and damages incurred by Oracle as a result of a failure by
the Alliance Member or its Distributors to comply with the necessary

After Section 5.1.B, add the following new paragraph:
"Sublicensees may acquire Oracle Technical Support services for the
Sublicensed Programs directly from Oracle at Oracle's standard rates and
fees in effect at the time such Technical Support services are ordered
from Oracle under an Oracle Technical Support Services Agreement executed
by the applicable Sublicensee and Oracle and upon execution of a standard
Oracle Technical Support policies statement letter applicable to Technical
Support services for Programs in Sublicensed in an Application Package."
6. In Section 5.2, add the following new paragraphs at the end of such
Section:
"Further, Oracle agrees that the Alliance Member shall have the right to
offer Oracle annual Technical Support services to Sublicensees in the
United States that are currently acquiring Application Specific Full Use
Programs. The Alliance Member shall only offer Oracle Technical Support
services with respect to the initial first year of Technical Support for
a Sublicensed Program. The Alliance Member shall only offer Oracle annual

A. Oracle receives from the Sublicensee an executed, standard
Oracle Technical Support Services Agreement, Oracle Agreement, or other
terms to govern the Technical Support services as agreed to in writing
by Oracle and the Sublicensee:
B. The Application Specific Full Use Programs are currently
Sublicensed by the Alliance Member:
C. The Alliance Member pays Oracle its required Sublicense fee

and the Alliance Member pays Oracle the applicable Technical Support
services fees as set forth herein in advance:
D. The Alliance Member's Sublicense of the Application Specific
Full Use Programs coincides with the agreement to provide Technical
Support Services for such Programs; and
E. The net Technical Support services fees represent new
Technical Support revenue to Oracle.
The Technical Support services fees payable by Alliance Member as provided

Other than the addition of the provisions above, the Addendum remains
unchanged and in full force and effect.
The Effective Date of this Amendment One is 28-Jun, 1996.

the Alliance Member shall be invoiced for such underpaid fees based on
the Price List in effect at the time the audit is completed. If the
underpaid fees exceed five percent (5%) of the applicable license fees
or Sublicense fees paid, then the Alliance Member shall

in writing of: (a) any claim or proceeding involving the Programs that
comes to its attention and (B) any material change in the management or
control of the Alliance Member.
6. TERM AND TERMINATION
6.1 TERM
This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date
and shall be valid until the expiration or termination of all
Sublicense Addenda hereunder, unless terminated earlier as set forth
herein. If not otherwise specified on the Order Form, each Program
license granted under this Agreement shall remain in effect perpetually
under the terms of this Agreement unless the license or this Agreement
is terminated as provided in this Article 6 below. The term of each
Sublicense Addendum hereunder shall be as set forth in each such
Addendum.
6.2 TERMINATION BY THE ALLIANCE MEMBER

other similar cause beyond such party's control, provided that such
party gives prompt written notice of such condition and resumes its
performance as soon as possible, and provided further that the other
party may terminate this Agreement if such condition continues for a

Upon expiration or termination of a Sublicense Addendum or
this Agreement, all the Alliance Member's rights to market and
Sublicense the Programs as set forth in such Sublicense Addendum or
this Agreement shall cease.
The termination of this Agreement, a Sublicense Addendum, or
any license shall not limit either party from pursuing any other
remedies available to it, including injunctive relief, nor shall such
termination relieve the Alliance Member's obligation to pay all fees
that have accrued or that the Alliance Member has agreed to pay under a
Sublicense Addendum or any Order Form, other similar ordering document
under this Agreement, or that appear in a Sublicense report. The
parties' rights and obligations under Sections 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 and
Articles 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
6.6 HANDLING OF PROGRAMS UPON TERMINATION
If a license granted under this Agreement expires or
otherwise terminates, the Alliance Member shall: (a) cease using the
applicable Programs; and (b) certify to Oracle within one month after
expiration or termination that the Alliance Member has destroyed or has
returned to Oracle the Programs and all copies. This requirement
applies to copies in all forms, partial and complete, in all types of
media and computer memory, and whether or not modified or merged into
other materials. Before returning Programs to Oracle, the Alliance
Member shall acquire a Return Material Authorization ("RMA") number
from Oracle.

to infringe, Oracle shall have the option, at its expense, to (a)
modify the Programs to be noninfringing; (b) obtain for the Alliance
