ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
The company's amended and restated bylaws that will become effective upon
the closing of this offering provide that the company will indemnify its
directors and executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law
and may indemnify its other officers, employees and other agents to the fullest
extent permitted by Delaware law.
In addition, the company's restated certificate of incorporation that will
become effective upon the closing of this offering provides that, to the fullest
extent permitted by Delaware law, its directors will not be personally liable to
the company or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary
duty as directors. This provision of the restated certificate of incorporation
does not eliminate the directors' duty of care. In appropriate circumstances,
equitable remedies such as an injunction or other forms of non-monetary relief
are available under Delaware law. This provision also does not affect the
directors' responsibilities under any other laws, such as the federal securities
laws and state and federal environmental laws.
Each director will continue to be subject to liability for:
- breach of a director's duty of loyalty to the company and its
stockholders;
- acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
- unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or
redemptions; and
- any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal
benefit.
The company also intends to enter into indemnity agreements with its
directors and executive officers and to obtain directors' and officers'
liability insurance.
There is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of the company's
directors or officers as to which indemnification is being sought. The company
is not aware of any pending or threatened litigation that may result in a claim
for indemnification.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriters
at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates in such
denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to
permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to provisions described in Item 14 or otherwise, the
registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part
of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in
a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
(4) or 497(h) under the Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration
statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of
prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

access to design documentation as necessary and appropriate for Zurich to fully
access and use the APIs. If the law of any applicable foreign jurisdiction limit
the enforceability of the foregoing, the restrictions above are limited so that
they prohibit such activity only to the maximum extent such activity may be

Zurich's business in conduction such audit. ChannelPoint shall bear the costs of
audits conducted pursuant to this Section, except that Zurich will compensate
ChannelPoint for any out-of-pocket expenses and fees of third party auditors
used by ChannelPoint to conduct such audit if the audit shows Zurich to be in
material violation of the terms of this Agreement. ChannelPoint shall ensure
that any third party auditors shall be bound by all confidentiality obligations

to submit a proposal for such development and ChannelPoint will be engaged to
provide such development services if, in the reasonable judgement of Zurich,
ChannelPoint's proposal is more favorable than or substantially equivalent to

techniques, software, business activities and operations, reports, studies and
other technical and business information, including, with respect to Zurich,
personal policyholder information and, with respect to ChannelPoint, technical
and business information concerning the Commerce Exchange Platform and

considered the "CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION" of each party. Notwithstanding the

is known by the receiving party at the time of disclosure, from a source other
than the other party, to be free of any obligation to keep it confidential, as
evidenced by credible evidence; (b) is or becomes publicly available through
authorized disclosure by the owner of such information; (c) is rightfully
obtained by the receiving party from a third party who has the right to transfer
or disclose it; or (d) is independently developed by the receiving party without
reference to Confidential Information of the other party.
9.2 NON-DISCLOSURE. Each party shall keep in confidence for a period of
five (5) years after termination or expiration of this Agreement all
Confidential Information of the other party and will not directly or indirectly
disclose to any third party or use for its own benefit, or use for any purpose
other than the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, any
Confidential Information it receives from the other party and, in the case of
Zurich, from its Affiliates. Each party shall use reasonable care to protect the
other party's Confidential Information, in no event less than the same degree of
care it would employ with respect to its own information of like importance

Confidential Information of the other party available to those of its employees,

of such disclosure and allows the disclosing party to participate in such
efforts. In addition, either party may disclose the terms of this Agreement to
potential investors or acquisition partners in connection with such party's due
diligence in connection with a proposed financing or acquisition, provided that
such party has executed an agreement prohibiting unauthorized use or disclosure
of the terms of this Agreement.
9.3 REMEDIES. Zurich and ChannelPoint each agree that any breach of this
Section 9 could cause irreparable harm or injury to the other party
significantly in excess of the value received by such other party pursuant to
this Agreement, and that such other party shall be entitled to declaratory,
injunctive or other equitable relief, in addition to any other legal or
equitable remedies it may have, for any such breach.
10. WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS
10.1 ZURICH WARRANTIES. Zurich represents and warrants that:
18.
<PAGE> 19
(a) Neither the Zurich Content nor any portion thereof that Zurich
provides or makes available in connection with [...***...] or an Open
Marketplace will: (i) infringe or violate any third party's copyright, patent,
trademark, trade secret or other proprietary rights; (ii) violate any law,
statute, ordinance or regulation, including without limitation the laws and
regulations governing export control; (iii) be defamatory or trade libelous;
(iv) be pornographic or obscene; or (v) to the extent such may contain code or
other electronic files, contain viruses, trojan horses, worms, time bombs,
cancelbots or other similar harmful or deleterious routines. In the event of any
breach of subclauses (i) through (iv) hereunder, ChannelPoint's sole remedy and
Zurich's sole obligation shall be the indemnity provided under Section 11.1
below.
(b) Zurich will promptly notify ChannelPoint if it receives any
complaint or if it is served with any paper or has knowledge of any legal or
administrative action, investigations or proceeding against ChannelPoint or
involving ChannelPoint.
10.2 CHANNELPOINT WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMERS.
(a) Independent Party. In connection with its obligations under this
Agreement, ChannelPoint represents and warrants that it will not hold itself out
as an employee, partner, joint venturer or officer of Zurich; and it will
promptly notify Zurich if it receives any complaint or if it is served with any
paper or has knowledge of any legal or administrative action, investigations or
proceeding against Zurich or involving Zurich.
(b) Limited Warranty and Disclaimer.
(i) Functionality. ChannelPoint warrants and represents that, for a
period of ninety (90) days from the Initial Deployment Date, the Commerce
Exchange Platform, including Third-Party Software, when operated in conformance
with this Agreement and the applicable Documentation, will materially conform to
the "SPECIFICATIONS" title of the Documentation, as delivered to Zurich. This
warranty covers only defects specifically identified by Zurich in a written
defect report submitted to ChannelPoint during the foregoing warranty period.
Zurich acknowledges that the proper operation of the Commerce Exchange Platform
requires certain minimum hardware and software configurations and resources of
the computer server on which it operates, as specified by ChannelPoint in the
Documentation, and the warranty provided in this Section 10.2(b)(i) is void if
Zurich fails to provide these minimum resources. This warranty covers only
problems reported to ChannelPoint during the foregoing warranty period.
(ii) Ownership. ChannelPoint warrants and represents that it owns
all right, title and interest in or has the right to license to Zurich any
ChannelPoint Property that is licensed to Zurich under this Agreement and that
such ChannelPoint Property (solely in the form delivered to Zurich) will not (A)
infringe or violate any third party's copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret
or other proprietary rights; or (B) contain viruses, trojan horses, worms, time
bombs, cancelbots or other similar harmful or deleterious routines.
(iii) Content. ChannelPoint warrants and represents that any
ChannelPoint Content provided to Zurich hereunder will not (A) infringe or
violate any third
* CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED
19.
<PAGE> 20
party's copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other proprietary rights;
(B) violate any law, statute, ordinance or regulation, including without
limitation the laws and regulations governing export control; (C) be defamatory
or trade libelous; (D) be pornographic or obscene; or (E) to the extent such may
contain code or other electronic files, contain viruses, trojan horses, worms,
time bombs, cancelbots or other similar harmful or deleterious routines.
(iv) Year 2000. ChannelPoint warrants and represents that any
ChannelPoint Property that is licensed to Zurich or its Affiliates (in the form
delivered to Zurich), when operated in accordance with the Documentation, will
be Year 2000 Compliant (as defined below). Zurich acknowledges that the
capability of the ChannelPoint Property to manage and manipulate date-related
information appropriately depends on the quality of information imported or
input, including the presence of adequate indicators of century in such
information. ChannelPoint disclaims any warranty relating to the quality of any
such imported or input information. "YEAR 2000 COMPLIANT" means the ability to
provide specific dates and calculate spans of dates, and to record, store,
process and provide true and accurate dates and calculations for dates and spans
of dates within and between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries prior to,
including and following January 1, 2000, including by: (i) correctly processing
correctly inputted day and date data; (ii) recognizing January 1, 2001 as a
valid date; (iii) recognizing the year 2000 as a leap year having 366 days, and
correctly processing February 29, 2000 as a valid leap year date; (iv) employing
only four-digit year internal year representations; and (v) providing an
interface to Zurich-provided programs that translate external two-digit year
representations into four-digit year representations in a manner specified in
the Documentation. Any claims brought under this Section 10.2(b)(iv) must be
brought by March 30, 2004.
(v) Professional Services. ChannelPoint warrants the quality and
timeliness of any Professional Services as explicitly provided in any Services
Supplement.
10.3 EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. ChannelPoint's sole liability and Zurich's sole
remedy for any breach of the warranties specified in Section 10.2(b)(i-iv)
(except as otherwise provided herein) shall be at ChannelPoint's sole discretion
to (a) promptly use diligent efforts to revise the applicable ChannelPoint
Property such that it conforms with the foregoing warranties, (b) to replace the
non-conforming ChannelPoint Property with ChannelPoint Property that conforms
with the foregoing warranties or, if ChannelPoint cannot deliver such
replacement within a reasonable time after Zurich' written notice of such
non-compliance, (c) refund the Commerce Exchange Platform Fees already paid by
Zurich less an amount based upon Zurich's prior use of the Commerce Exchange
Platform equal to the Commerce Exchange Platform Fee prorated on a straight-line
basis over an assumed five-year product life.
10.4 DISCLAIMER. EXCEPT FOR THE FOREGOING, THE COMMERCE EXCHANGE PLATFORM
IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND AND CHANNELPOINT HEREBY
EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE, WHETHER
EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, RELATING TO THE COMMERCE EXCHANGE PLATFORM
INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. CHANNELPOINT DOES NOT WARRANT OR REPRESENT
THAT THE USE OF THE COMMERCE EXCHANGE PLATFORM WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR

REGARDING THE USE, OR THE RESULTS OF THE USE, OF THE COMMERCE EXCHANGE PLATFORM
OR WRITTEN MATERIALS IN TERMS OF CORRECTNESS, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR
OTHERWISE. Zurich understands that ChannelPoint is not responsible for and will

11.1 ZURICH INDEMNITY. Zurich shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless
ChannelPoint from and against any and all damages, losses, fees, expenses,

disbursements) arising as a direct result of all claims, suits or proceedings
brought by any third party against ChannelPoint or its directors, officers,
agents and employees arising from (a) any breach of the representations,
warranties or covenants in Section 10.1, or (b) any claims relating to the
provision of the insurance services offered by Zurich or any claims by Zurich's
customers or representatives [...***...], except to the extent such claim arose

foregoing, ChannelPoint shall (i) promptly notify Zurich of any indemnifiable

claims; and (iii) provide reasonable cooperation and assistance to Zurich in
conducting its defense, at Zurich's expense; provided, however, that
ChannelPoint may participate in the defense at its expense; and ChannelPoint's
advance written approval is required for any settlement that imposes any
executory obligation on ChannelPoint and does not unconditionally release
ChannelPoint.
11.2 CHANNELPOINT INDEMNITY.

Zurich and any of its Affiliates from and against any and all damages, losses,
fees, expenses, penalties and costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees, costs
and disbursements) arising as a direct result of all claims, suits or
proceedings brought by any third party against Zurich or any Affiliate or their
respective directors, officers, agents and employees arising from (a) any
viruses, trojan horses, worms, time bombs, cancelbots or other similar harmful
or deleterious routines transmitted to Zurich as a result of ChannelPoint's
failure to scan any files, data or other content provided to Zurich using the
most current commercially available version of one of the five (5) best selling
virus checking software; (b) any claims that use of the ChannelPoint Property by
Zurich or any Affiliate in conformance with this Agreement infringes any third

claim; (ii) give ChannelPoint sole control over the defense and settlement of
such claims; and (iii) provide reasonable cooperation and assistance to
ChannelPoint in conducting its defense, at ChannelPoint's expense; provided,
however, that Zurich may participate in the defense at its expense and Zurich's
advance written approval is required for any settlement that imposes any
executory obligation on Zurich and does not unconditionally release Zurich.

<PAGE> 22
(b) Limitations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, ChannelPoint shall not
indemnify Zurich or any Affiliate for any claims to the extent based on: (i) any
Zurich, Affiliate or third party intellectual property or software incorporated
in or combined with the Commerce Exchange Platform where, in the absence of such
incorporated item, the Commerce Exchange Platform would not have been
infringing; (ii) software that has been altered or modified by or on behalf of
Zurich or any Affiliate or any third party without the permission of
ChannelPoint where, in the absence of such alteration or modification, the
Commerce Exchange Platform would not be infringing; (iii) any use of an outmoded
or superseded version of the Commerce Exchange Platform for which ChannelPoint
has made available an updated, revised or repaired version which is not
infringing, provided that Zurich had reasonable opportunity to install or
otherwise implement such updated, revised or repaired version; or (iv) software
that has become infringing as a result of any detailed functionality or
system-level architecture direction given by Zurich, any Affiliate or any of
their representatives.
(c) Infringing Products. Upon notice of any indemnifiable claim of
infringement under this Section 11.2 or upon reasonable belief of the likelihood
of such a claim, ChannelPoint shall have the right, at its option: (i) to obtain
the rights to continued use of the Commerce Exchange Platform; (ii) substitute
other suitable, functionally-equivalent, non-infringing software; (iii) replace
or modify any infringing part of the Commerce Exchange Platform or its design so
that it is no longer infringing; or, in the event that ChannelPoint, using
commercially reasonable efforts, is unable to cure the infringement under either
(i), (ii) or (iii), then: (iv) refund to Zurich the Commerce Exchange Platform
Fees already paid by Zurich, depreciated on a five-year straight-line basis.

INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO
THIS AGREEMENT REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT
(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF SUCH
PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL
EITHER PARTY'S LIABILITY TO THE OTHER UNDER ANY PORTION OF THE AGREEMENT EXCEED
THE LESSER OF (A) PAYMENTS RECEIVED BY CHANNELPOINT FROM OR ON BEHALF OF ZURICH
FOR THE SERVICES OR (B) [...***...]; PROVIDED THAT SUCH LIMITS SET FORTH IN

THIS LIMIT. THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THIS ARTICLE IS AN ESSENTIAL
ELEMENT OF THE AGREEMENT AND THAT, IN ITS ABSENCE, THE ECONOMIC TERMS OF THIS
AGREEMENT WOULD BE SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT.
13. TERM AND TERMINATION
13.1 TERM. This Agreement is effective as of the Effective Date and shall
continue in effect until terminated as provided in Section 13.2 below.
13.2 TERMINATION.
(a) Material Breach. If either party materially breaches its obligation
under this Agreement and fails to cure or take reasonable steps to undertake to
cure within thirty (30) days after written notice is provided by the
non-breaching party specifying the breach in reasonable detail and demanding its
cure (the "CURE PERIOD"), the non-breaching party may commence an action to
rescind this Agreement. Zurich shall be responsible for any breach of the terms
of this Agreement by its Affiliates; provided, however, that a breach of any
separate agreement between ChannelPoint and a Business Unit or an Affiliate,
including any Service Supplement, that does not violate any of the terms of this
Agreement shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement.
(b) Ordinary Termination. Upon expiration of the first [...***...]
since the Effective Date Zurich shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
at any time by giving ChannelPoint [...***...] prior written notice (the "NOTICE
PERIOD").
13.3 EFFECTS OF TERMINATION.
(a) Zurich's Material Breach. In the event ChannelPoint elects to
terminate this Agreement for any uncured material breach of the Agreement by
Zurich, all licenses granted to Zurich under this Agreement shall continue for a
transition period of up to [...***...], subject to all restrictions, rights and
obligations of both parties including the payment of all sums due to
ChannelPoint under this Agreement. Thereafter, this Agreement and all licenses
granted hereunder shall terminate and Zurich and all Affiliates shall promptly
cease all use of the Commerce Exchange Platform and APIs [...***...] and Zurich
shall not be entitled to any refund of payments made by Zurich unless otherwise
explicitly provided herein.
(b) ChannelPoint's Material Breach. As a result of any uncured material
breach of the Agreement by ChannelPoint, Zurich may (i) withhold any outstanding
payments owed to ChannelPoint that are subject to any good faith dispute by
Zurich; and (ii) elect to terminate this Agreement, provided that, in this
event, all licenses granted to Zurich under this Agreement shall continue for an
unlimited period of time until Zurich notifies ChannelPoint that it and its
Affiliates have ceased all use of the Commerce Exchange Platform and the APIs
(the "TRANSITION PERIOD"), subject to all restrictions, rights and obligations
of both parties including the payment of all sums that are not subject to a good
faith dispute due under this Agreement

provided, however, that no [...***...] shall be made as set forth in Section
[...***...] of this Agreement for [...***...] after expiration of the Cure
Period [...***...] (the "GRACE PERIOD"). If any products [...***...] are
included [...***...] at any time after the expiration of the Grace Period
[...***...], Zurich shall pay ChannelPoint [...***...] Fee calculated as set
forth in Section [...***...] above, except that [...***...] shall be determined
as if [...***...] occurred upon the expiration of the Grace Period. ChannelPoint
shall provide reasonable levels of transition support to Zurich for which Zurich
shall compensate ChannelPoint on a time and materials basis, provided, however
that such transition support shall be provided without charge to Zurich up to a
maximum value equal to the value of the then-current [...***...] Fee owed by
Zurich [...***...] for the Commerce Exchange Platform. In the event that a court
of competent jurisdiction determines that ChannelPoint has not materially
breached the Agreement or has cured any material within the time period
specified above, Zurich shall compensate ChannelPoint for the value of any
transition support provided to Zurich at no charge. After the expiration of the
Transition Period, this Agreement and all licenses granted hereunder shall
terminate and Zurich and all Affiliates shall promptly cease all use of the
Commerce Exchange Platform and APIs and [...***...], and Zurich shall not be
entitled to any refund of payments made by Zurich unless otherwise explicitly
provided herein or awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction. In the
alternative, while pursuing any remedies for breach of contract, Zurich may
elect to continue this Agreement, subject to all terms and conditions hereof,
except that in the event that any material breach of this Agreement by
ChannelPoint results in the release of the Source Code deposit, Zurich may
terminate any obligation to procure Maintenance Services from ChannelPoint.
(c) Ordinary Termination. After expiration of the Notice Period, this
Agreement and all licenses granted hereunder shall terminate and Zurich and all
Affiliates shall promptly cease all use of the Commerce Exchange Platform and
APIs [...***...]. Any fees for Maintenance Services performed until the
expiration of the Notice Period shall be calculated on a prorated basis until
expiration of such Notice Period and be paid prior to such expiration.
(d) Mutual Provisions. Termination is not an exclusive remedy and all
other remedies will be available whether or not the License is terminated.
Sections 2.4, 6.4, 6.5, 7.9 (with respect to fees due and owing prior to
termination), 9, 11, 12, 14.1 and 14.11 shall survive any termination of this
Agreement.

Zurich agrees that it will not export or re-export the Commerce Exchange
Platform or APIs from the United States or the country originally shipped to by
ChannelPoint in any form, without the appropriate United States and foreign
governmental licenses.
14.3 SEVERABILITY; WAIVER. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions will continue
in full force without being impaired or invalidated in any way. The parties
agree to replace any invalid provision with a valid provision that most closely
approximates the intent and economic effect of the invalid provision. The waiver
by either party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement will not operate
or be interpreted as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.
14.4 HEADINGS. Headings used in this Agreement are for reference purposes
only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or extent of
any section, or in any way affect this Agreement.
14.5 ASSIGNMENT. Neither party may assign this Agreement in whole or in
part without the express written consent of the other party, such consent not to
be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party
may assign this Agreement to a successor of its entire business whether by sale
of all or substantially all of the assets or outstanding capital stock of such
party or by merger, consolidation or the like, provided that the successor
agrees in writing to be bound by all terms and conditions of this Agreement.

CHANNELPOINT MAINTENANCE ADDENDUM
MAINTENANCE ADDENDUM #
---------
Zurich desires to participate in ChannelPoint's program ("Maintenance Program")
as set forth herein to provide support for the Commerce Exchange Platform and
certain Applications (the "Products") specified in the Commerce Exchange
Platform Agreement between Zurich and ChannelPoint (the "Agreement"). This
Maintenance Addendum is an attachment to and a part of the Agreement and is
incorporated therein by reference. This Addendum sets forth terms additional to,
and not in lieu of, the Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein
shall have the same meanings as in the Agreement.
1. MAINTENANCE. ChannelPoint shall provide Maintenance Services to Zurich for
the Products for which Maintenance Services have been obtained by Zurich
pursuant to the Agreement. The Maintenance Services currently consist of: (a)
ChannelPoint delivering to Zurich (in electronic format, if requested by Zurich)
all updates, modifications, and new versions or Product releases which are
generally made available to other Maintenance Program participants at no extra
charge; (b) telephone support during normal Maintenance Program hours (currently
weekdays from [...***...]; (c) unlimited access to Web-based self-help materials
and the ability to create, submit and review status of support assistance
requests (access is 24x7 outside normal periods); and (d) error corrections
which are generally made available to other Maintenance Program participants at
no charge. ChannelPoint may from time to time revise its Maintenance Program
offerings at its sole discretion upon thirty (30) days written notice to Zurich.
Maintenance Program changes cannot provide a lesser level of service than
currently provided. Maintenance Services shall be provided solely to the
Technical Contacts specified by Zurich in writing to ChannelPoint to the
attention of Director ChannelPoint Support Center. Any change to this list must
be submitted in writing at least 5 business days prior to the effective date of
the change. ChannelPoint will support only the two (2) most recent version
releases of the Product. Maintenance Services shall not include any new products
provided by ChannelPoint at a separate fee whether or not such new products are
based upon or include the features of any supported Product.
2. TERM AND TERMINATION. The Maintenance Services shall be provided for the
minimum period specified in the Agreement (the "Minimum Maintenance Period"),
unless this Addendum is terminated as provided herein or unless the Agreement
terminates, in which case Maintenance Services will terminate. ChannelPoint
shall provide Zurich with notice of the expiration of a maintenance period at
least sixty (60) days prior to the end of the term and Zurich may renew the
Maintenance Services on [...***...] basis by providing written notice to
ChannelPoint within thirty (30) days of such notice. ChannelPoint may suspend or
cancel Maintenance Service upon non-payment if such non-payment is not remedied
within thirty (30) days after Zurich receives written notice of the breach.
3. FEES AND PAYMENT. Zurich shall pay ChannelPoint the applicable Maintenance
Service Fees set forth in the Agreement for each Product for which Maintenance
Services are provided, payable in accordance with the schedule specified in the
Agreement. Zurich shall be responsible for all taxes associated with Maintenance
Services except employment taxes or taxes based on ChannelPoint's net income. In
the event Zurich fails to pay ChannelPoint on the due date or Maintenance
Services are otherwise discontinued or suspended, then to reinstate or renew
Maintenance Services (a) ChannelPoint shall have discretion to accept or reject
such renewal or reinstatement, and (b) Zurich must first pay ChannelPoint the
Maintenance Services Fees for an interim period during which Maintenance
Services were discontinued or suspended, and any applicable reinstatement
charges listed in ChannelPoint's then-current price list. In the event Zurich
upgrades (requests a higher level of Maintenance Services), downgrades (requests
a lower level of Maintenance Services), or discontinues a Product from
Maintenance Services, the Maintenance Service Fees shall be adjusted in
accordance with ChannelPoint's then current policies. [...***...] Zurich shall
reimburse ChannelPoint for reasonable travel, lodging and meal expenses
* CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED
Exhibit D-1
<PAGE> 33
incurred for travel outside of ChannelPoint's site and which ChannelPoint is
required to incur in performing any on-site maintenance services as requested by
Zurich. Any ChannelPoint support personnel shall comply with the standard
expense reimbursement policies of Zurich or the applicable Affiliate that are
provided to ChannelPoint.
4. TELEPHONE SUPPORT AND ERROR CORRECTION. ChannelPoint shall exercise
commercially reasonable efforts to correct any error in the current unmodified
release of Product which is reported by Zurich such that the Product shall
perform in accordance with the applicable Documentation. If the error was solely
within the Product, ChannelPoint shall deliver the correction or workaround to
Zurich promptly after creating such, in accordance with the service level
criteria specified in Attachment 1. All other corrections may be delivered under
the next scheduled error-correction release under the Maintenance Program. If
Zurich reports a problem that is scheduled by ChannelPoint to be solved in a
later incremental release, ChannelPoint may address such correction in such
release.
If ChannelPoint believes that a problem reported by Zurich may not be due to an
error in the Product, ChannelPoint will so notify Zurich and may at
ChannelPoint's discretion provide Zurich an opportunity to have ChannelPoint
address the error at Zurich's expense under ChannelPoint's then-current
Professional Services rates on an as-available basis for ChannelPoint's
resources. If Zurich instructs ChannelPoint that it does not wish the problem
pursued, or if such determination requires effort in excess of Zurich's
instructions, ChannelPoint may, at its sole discretion, elect not to investigate
the error. Zurich agrees to pay ChannelPoint at ChannelPoint's standard
Professional Services rates for all effort expended towards resolution of a
problem which is later determined to result from any cause other than an error
in the Product. ChannelPoint shall refund to Zurich all amounts paid to
ChannelPoint under this Section 4 in connection with a problem that turns out to
be caused by an error in the Product and/or acts or failure to act by
ChannelPoint.
5. EXCLUSIONS. ChannelPoint shall have no obligation to offer Maintenance
Services for: (a) Products altered, damaged or modified by other than
ChannelPoint or all or any portion of a Product incorporated into other software
by other than ChannelPoint or its subcontractors; (b) Products that are not one
of the releases currently supported under the Maintenance Program; (c) Product
problems caused by Zurich's gross negligence, abuse or misapplication, Product
use other than as specified in the ChannelPoint-published documentation, or; (d)
Products installed on any computer hardware that is not supported by
ChannelPoint. ChannelPoint shall have no liability for any changes required by
Zurich's hardware or software configuration which may be necessary to use
Products due to a workaround, error correction, or maintenance release.
6. APPLICABLE PROVISIONS. Unless expressly provided to the contrary elsewhere in
the Agreement, all provisions of the Agreement, including the Limitation of
Liability provisions specified in Section 12 thereof, shall apply to all rights
and obligations of the parties under this Addendum.

corrected within the specified time period or if Zurich disagrees with the
assigned deficiency classification. An escalation will not change the
deficiency's severity; rather, it will highlight a deficiency so it receives
management focus.

Where the Business Unit Types identified above are based upon definitions set
forth in Section 7.2(c)(ii) above. Any increases in the Maintenance Service Fees
for Business Unit deployment shall be pro rated based upon the number of days
remaining in the calendar year in which such deployment took place. For example,
if Zurich deploys a Category II business unit on June 6, 2000 (208 days (or
approximately 57%) remaining in the calendar year), the increase in the
Maintenance Service Fees shall be 57% of [...***...] of the then-current
Maintenance Service Fee, computed as follows:

Any increases in the Maintenance Service Fees during the calendar year will be
applied in total for the purpose of computing the aggregate Maintenance Service
Fee due at the beginning of the next calendar year.
2. APPLICATION MAINTENANCE.
Maintenance Service Fees for Applications will be due upon deployment of any
Application for which ChannelPoint will provide Maintenance Services under this
Agreement. The Maintenance Service Fees for Applications shall also be based on
a calendar year payable in calendar quarterly installments, and will therefore
be pro rated based upon the number of days remaining in the calendar year in
which such deployment took place.

by the terms hereof. No permitted assignment shall relieve the assignor of its
obligation under this Agreement.
