defense of such claim and all related settlement negotiations; and (iii)
Customer or Distributor provides Siebel, at Siebel's request and expense, with
the assistance, information and authority necessary to perform Siebel's
obligations under this Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Siebel shall have

continue using the Licensed Software, or (c) if Siebel cannot reasonably obtain

MAINTENANCE POLICY
At any given time, provided that Distributor has paid the applicable
Maintenance Services fees, Siebel shall provide support for (a) the then
current version of the Licensed Software enumerated in Order Forms executed
pursuant to an applicable Software License and Services Agreement, and (b) the
immediately preceding version of such Licensed Software, but only for a period
of six (6) months following the release of the then current version that is
made generally available, provided that all such Licensed Software is are then
generally available from Siebel and operated on a Supported Platform. Such
Licensed Software is referred to in this Policy as the "Supported Programs."
1. MAINTENANCE
Maintenance covers Supported Programs during both implementation and production
use of such Programs. Siebel will use reasonable commercial efforts to cure, as
described below, reported and verifiable Errors in Supported Programs so that
such Programs perform in all material respects the functions described in the
associated Documentation. Siebel recognizes four severity levels of Supported
Program Errors or issues:
Severity 1 - Critical Business Impact. Customer's production use of the
Supported Programs is stopped or so severely impacted that the Customer cannot
reasonably continue work. Siebel will begin work on the Program Error within
one hour of notification during Technical Support's normal business hours and
will engage development staff until an acceptable Workaround is achieved.
Severity 2 - Significant Business Impact. Important Program features are
unavailable with no acceptable Workaround. Customer's implementation or
production use of the Supported Programs is continuing but not stopped;
however, there is a serious impact on the Customer's productivity and/or
service levels. Siebel will begin work on the Program Error within two hours of
notification during Technical Support's normal business hours and will engage
development staff until an acceptable Workaround is achieved.
Severity 3 - Some Business Impact. Important Program features are
unavailable but a Workaround is available, or less significant Program features
are unavailable with no reasonable Workaround. Customer's work, regardless of
the environment or product usage, has minor loss of operational functionality
or implementation resources. Siebel will provide initial response regarding the
requested information or documentation clarification within 24 hours of
notification during Technical Support's normal business hours and will consider
a Workaround, if appropriate, and Supported Program enhancements for inclusion
in a subsequent Program Update.
Severity 4 - Minimal Business Impact. Customer requests information, an
enhancement, or documentation clarification regarding the Supported Programs
but there is no impact on the operation of the Supported Programs. Customer's
implementation or production use of the Supported Programs is continuing and
there is no work being impeded at the time. Siebel will provide initial
response regarding the requested information or documentation clarification
within 48 hours of notification during Technical Support's normal business
hours and will consider Supported Program enhancements for inclusion in a
subsequent Program Update.
Siebel will provide Distributor with a single copy of the fix or Workaround on
suitable media. Distributor will distribute the fix or Workaround to Supported
Programs as necessary.
2. UPDATES
Siebel shall, from time to time, in its sole discretion, make Updates to
Supported Programs available to Distributor at no additional charge except for
media and handling charges. If a Customer transfers the Supported Program to a
hardware and/or software platform which is not supported by Siebel at the time
of such transfer, Siebel shall continue to provide to Distributor Updates which
operate on a Supported Platform and Siebel shall have no further obligation to
fix Errors which occur when the Program is run on any platform other than the
Supported Platform. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Distributor shall remain
obligated to pay for Maintenance Services ordered by Distributor prior to such
transfer.
3. SUPPORT
3.1 Customer shall establish and maintain the organization and processes to
provide First Line Support for the Supported Programs directly to Users.
3.2 If after reasonable commercial efforts Customer is unable to diagnose or
resolve problems or performance deficiencies of the Supported Programs,
Customer shall contact Distributor for Second Line Support and Distributor
shall provide support for the Supported Programs in accordance with Siebel's
then current policies and procedures for Second Line Support.
3.3 Distributor shall establish and maintain the organization and processes to
provide Second Line Support for the Supported Programs to Customer. Second Line
Support shall be provided to Customer only if, after reasonable commercial
efforts, Customer is unable to diagnose and/or resolve problems of performance
deficiencies of the Supported Programs. Second Line Support shall be provided
to up to two designated Siebel trained representatives of Customer.
3.4 Second Line Support shall be provided by Distributor through (i) telephone
support during local normal business hours, (ii) electronic mail, and (iii)
through the World Wide Web to the extent such support is technically and
reasonably feasible.
3.5 Siebel shall provide Distributor Third-Line Support for the Supported
Programs in accordance with Siebel's then current Maintenance and Support
Services Policy. Distributor shall provide Siebel with the necessary remote
access (e.g. modem) to Customer's Supported Platform so that Siebel may, at its
option, provide remote diagnostic capability. Siebel does not assure
performance of the maintenance services described herein if such remote access
is not provided by Distributor when requested by Siebel. Siebel shall not
provide Third Line Support directly to Users.
4. EXCLUDED SERVICES
The following services are outside the scope of Siebel's Maintenance Services:
4.1 Service for Supported Programs which have been subject to unauthorized
modification by Customer or Distributor.
4.2 Service for Supported Programs for which all required maintenance releases
have not been implemented by Customer or Distributor.
5.3 Service which becomes necessary due to: (i) failure of computer hardware or
equipment or programs not covered by this schedule; or (ii) any cause or causes
beyond the reasonable control of Siebel (e.g., floods, fires, loss of
electricity or other utilities), negligence of Customer, Distributor or any
third party, operator error, improper use of hardware or software or attempted
maintenance by unauthorized persons.
5.4 Services performed at the Customer's or Distributor's site unless the
parties mutually agree otherwise.

Software. Additional Documentation may be provided by Distributor at its
standard rates, if any, if a Customer requests a copy of the Siebel Data Model
Reference Manual (the "Data Model"), Siebel will provide Customer with the Data
Model upon execution by Distributor, Customer and Siebel of a Non-Disclosure
Agreement in substantially the same form as EXHIBIT C1 below.
EXHIBIT C1
DATA MODEL REFERENCE MANUAL SUPPLEMENTAL CONFIDENTIALITY TERMS AND CONDITIONS:
The following additional terms and conditions apply to Siebel's provision of
the Siebel Data Model Reference Manual (the "Data Model") to Customer. The Data
Model shall be governed by the terms that apply to Programs under the
Agreement, except that with respect to the Data Model, the nondisclosure
obligations set forth in Section 9.1 ("Nondisclosure") of the Agreement shall
not be limited to the period equal to the term of the Agreement plus three (3)
years, but shall continue perpetually.
1. AUTHORIZED EMPLOYEES AND AUTHORIZED CONTRACTORS. Customer may disclose the
Data Model only to employees and contractors who (i) require access thereto for
a purpose authorized by the Agreement, and (ii) have personally signed the
Access Log which is set forth as the initial page of the Data Model. Such
employees and contractors are hereby designated "Authorized Employees" and
"Authorized Contractors." Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) Siebel
reasonably believes that any employee or contractor is engaged in the
integration, customization or other development-related activities of products
similar to or competitive with Siebel's products either for its own benefit or
for the benefit of a third party ("Similar Product Development"), and Customer
cannot assure Siebel to its reasonable satisfaction that such employee or
contractor, while engaged in supporting such development activities, will be
able to refrain from commingling or sharing any portion of the Data Model with
any such Similar Product Development, or (ii)Siebel reasonably believes that
the Data Model may not be properly safeguarded by any employee or contractor,
Siebel shall notify Customer in writing and, upon receipt of such notification,
Customer shall immediately terminate such employee's or contractor's access to
the Data Model. Customer shall promptly provide Siebel the original of the
Access Log upon request. In the event Siebel disapproves of an employee or
contractor in accordance with the foregoing, Siebel shall provide Customer
prompt notice of such disapproval no later than fifteen (15) days following
Customer's having provided Siebel with the original of the Access Log. Siebel
shall be deemed to have accepted all employees and contractors who have signed
the Access Log until Siebel notifies Customer to the contrary. Any breach of
the Agreement by an employee or contractor of Customer shall be deemed to be a
breach by Customer.
2. PROCEDURES FOR HANDLING THE DATA MODEL. Siebel shall ensure that the Data
Model will be appropriately identified as Siebel's Confidential Information
before being made available to Customer hereunder. Customer shall ensure that
the same degree of care is used to prevent the unauthorized use, dissemination,
or publication of the Data Model as Customer uses to protect its own
confidential trade secret information of a like nature (i.e., other
highly-sensitive proprietary technical data and information of Customer such as
source code). Customer shall not disclose any portion of the Data Model to
third parties, with the exception of Authorized Employees and Authorized
Contractors as set forth in Section 1 above. Customer shall maintain one master
copy of the Data Model and Customer will designate one employee ("Data Model
Access Coordinator") who shall be responsible for controlling all access to
such master copy. All hard copies of the Data Model must be kept in a locked
drawer, cabinet or room at all times when not in use. Customer may not
reproduce any portion of the Data Model for any purpose. If Customer wishes to
obtain additional hard copies of the Data Model, Siebel shall provide Customer
additional copies, as reasonably necessary, at Siebel's then-current price.
3. TRADE SECRETS. The Data Model and any part thereof constitute trade secrets
of Siebel and/or its suppliers, and will be used by Customer only in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement. Customer shall take prompt and appropriate
action to prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of the Data Model by the
Authorized Employees and Authorized Contractors.

4. GENERAL TERMS.
4.1 NONDISCLOSURE. By virtue of this Agreement, the parties may have
access to information that is confidential to one another ("Confidential
Information"). Distributor's Confidential Information shall include the
Programs, formulas, methods, know-how, processes, designs, new products,
development work, marketing requirements, marketing plans, customer names,
prospective customer names, the terms and pricing under this Agreement, and
all information clearly identified in writing at the time of disclosure as
confidential.
A party's Confidential Information shall not include information that (a)
is or becomes a part of the public domain through no act or omission of the
other party; (b) was in the other party's lawful possession prior to the
disclosure and had not been obtained by the other party either directly or
indirectly from the disclosing party; (c) is lawfully disclosed to the
other party by a third party without restriction on disclosure; or (d) is
independently developed by the other party. End User shall not disclose the
results of any performance tests of the Programs to any third party without
Siebel's prior written approval.
The parties agree to hold each other's Confidential Information in
confidence during the term of this Agreement and for a period of three (3)
years after termination of this Agreement, provided, however, that with
respect to the Siebel Data Model Reference Manual, the Siebel Data Mart
Data Model Reference (in the event such Data Model Reference Manuals are
disclosed to Customer), and other highly sensitive confidential information
clearly identified as such at the time of disclosure by either party
("Highly Sensitive Confidential Information"), the nondisclosure
obligations set forth herein shall continue indefinitely. Customer's
additional obligations regarding the Siebel Data Model Reference Manual and
Siebel Data Mart Data Model Reference shall be set forth in a separate
nondisclosure agreement that must be entered into directly with Siebel
Systems before the Data Model is provided to Customer by Siebel Systems.
The parties agree, unless required by law, not to make each other's
Confidential Information available in any form to any third party or to use
each other's Confidential Information for any purpose other than in the
performance of this Agreement. Each party agrees to take all reasonable
steps to ensure that Confidential Information is not disclosed or
distributed by its employees or agents in violation of the terms of this
Agreement. Each party acknowledges and agrees that, due to the unique
nature of Confidential Information, there can be no adequate remedy at law
for breach of this Section 4.1 and that such breach would cause irreparable
harm to the non-breaching party; therefore, the non-breaching party shall
be entitled to seek immediate injunctive relief, in addition to whatever
remedies it might have at law or under this Agreement.
4.2 DISCLAIMER OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES. Distributor does not warrant that
(i) the Programs will meet End User's requirements, (ii) the Programs will
operate in the combinations which End User may select for use, (iii) the

Program Errors will be corrected. Limited Production Programs,
pre-production releases of Programs, and Training Materials are distributed
"AS IS". THE WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO THE PROGRAMS, DOCUMENTATION, OR
TRAINING MATERIALS IS EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,
WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
