          the Appendix 1, Pricing Schedule(s) to this Agreement to provide
          Technical Support to Customers.

     2.2. Motive hereby grants to HP the right to reproduce a reasonable number
          of copies of all the Licensed Product(s) solely for backup and
          archival purposes, and/or the installation of an operational copy of
          the Licensed Product(s) on a dedicated disaster recovery machine at no
          additional charge. HP will use reasonable commercial efforts to
          maintain the copyright notice and any other notices that appear on any
          Licensed Product(s) on any copies and any media.

     2.3. HP may bundle with the HP Products or provide to its Customers access
          to the Licensed Products currently called [*] and [*] that will run on
          an HP Product. HP further agrees that such access to these two
          programs (or any replacement or renamed program) will be solely for
          the purpose of providing Technical Support to its Customers through
          the use of Motive's server and support desktop Licensed Products. HP
          agrees that the distribution of these two programs to its Customers
          and use of the Licensed Products to provide Technical Support to
          Customers shall be done under the terms as set forth in HP's standard
          end user license agreement attached hereto and incorporated herein by
          reference. HP agrees that should the terms of its standard end user

          shall remain substantially the same as contained in the HP's standard
          end user license agreement attached hereto. HP shall be liable for any
          obligations or liabilities extended to their Customer(s) that are over

          i) employees of HP, or ii) contractors/agents of HP who are under a
          written agreement with HP which will protect Motive's Licensed
          Products similar to the protections and restrictions under this

          Customer Technical Support requirements. If HP subcontracts its
          Technical Support obligations of its products to a third party
          (contractor or agent) such third party will be authorized to use the
          Licensed Products provided that (1) the third party uses the Licensed
          Products solely on behalf of HP to support HP or fulfill HP's
          Technical Support obligation to Customers and no other customers of
          the third party; and (2) upon completion or termination of the
          subcontracting agreement between HP and the third party, all Motive's
          Licensed Products and Confidential Information be returned to HP.

          Product(s) and Documentation including all patches, revisions and
          updates made by either party.

          developing, acquiring or marketing, for itself, or for others,
          software which may perform the same or display similar functions as
          the Licensed Product(s) or any of its components without use or
          disclosure of Motive's Confidential Information.

     2.7. HP shall not, reverse engineer, create Licensed Products which are
          primarily derived from the Licensed Products, decompile, or
          disassemble the Licensed Product(s) or any portion thereof, nor
          otherwise attempt to derive the Source Code.

     2.8. HP may customize the self-service and assisted service UI web browser
          pages of the Licensed Products provided that HP [*] in an appropriate
          manner as mutually agreed. No other modifications to the Licensed
          Products will be made without Motive's prior written consent.

          initial delivery of each License Product model. Such [*] shall be
          conducted on one or more of HP's facilities on HP's equipment in order
          to determine whether the Licensed Product(s) materially performs
          according to Specifications in HP's operating environment.

     4.2. If for the above specified [*] business days, the Licensed Product(s)
          materially performs in accordance with the Specifications, HP shall

          Agreement in whole or in part at that point (in which case section 4.4
          applies) or request Motive to make corrections and modifications in
          the Licensed Product(s). If HP elects the latter, Motive will cause
          the Licensed Product(s) to be ready for [*] no later than [*] business
          days from the date that HP first notified the Motive of the failure to
          pass the [*]. Motive shall notify HP when such corrections and
          modifications have been made, at which time HP can again perform [*]
          as provided in this section. If, in HP's [*], the Licensed Product(s)
          still [*] in accordance with the Specifications, HP shall promptly
          notify Motive in writing, and shall have the right, at HP's option, to
          terminate this Agreement in whole or in part by giving written notice
          to Motive. (in which case section 4.4 applies).

          return the effected Licensed Product(s) and associated Documentation
          and materials to Motive at Motive's expense. HP shall have the right
          to [*] under this Agreement for the effected Licensed Product(s). In
          the case of a Licensed Product(s) which was licensed on a [*] basis,
          the parties will mutually agree to the equitable portion of [*]
          payment, attributable to the [*] Licensed Product, to be [*].

     4.5. In no event shall use of any product by HP for business, profit,
          revenue, or any other purpose during any phase of the [*], constitute
          [*] of any product by HP.

     4.6. Absent HP's written notice of [*] by the [*] business day from the
          initial delivery of each Licensed Product model, the Licensed
          Product(s)s will be deemed accepted by HP.

     5.1. In consideration of the rights granted to HP hereunder for Licensed
          Product(s)s and upon the [*] by Motive hereunder, HP shall pay to

     6.2. Motive shall be deemed in material breach if (i) the Licensed
          Product(s) program exhibits defects causing serious disruption of use
          or repeated periods of downtime, notwithstanding Motive's remedial or
          maintenance efforts, if such disruption or downtime is frequent over

<PAGE>

     6.3. HP may terminate this Agreement by written notice to Motive and may
          regard Motive as in material breach of this Agreement if Motive (1)
          becomes insolvent, (2) makes a general assignment for the benefit of
          creditors, (3) suffers or permits the appointment of a receiver for
          its business or assets, (4) becomes subject to any proceeding under
          any bankruptcy or insolvency law whether domestic or foreign, or (5)
          has wound up or liquidated, voluntarily or otherwise.

     6.4. In the event that either party is unable to perform any of its
          obligations under this Agreement or to enjoy any of its benefits
          because of (or if loss of the Licensed Product(s) is caused by)
          natural disaster, actions or decrees of governmental bodies or
          communications line failure that is (a) unavoidable and (b) not the
          fault of the affected party (hereinafter referred to as a "Force
          Majeure Event"), the party who has been so affected shall give written
          notice to the other party within thirty days and shall do everything
          possible to resume performance. Upon receipt of such notice, this
          Agreement shall immediately be suspended and any delivery date
          extended for a period equal to the duration of the Force Majeure
          Event; any warranty period affected by a Force Majeure Event shall
          likewise be extended for a period equal to the duration of such event.
          If the period of nonperformance exceeds [*] days from the receipt of

          has not been so affected may terminate this Agreement with written
          notice.

     6.5. In the event that this Agreement is terminated, each party shall
          return to the other all papers, materials, and other properties of the
          other party then in its possession. However, if HP terminates this
          Agreement or a pricing schedule issued under this Agreement, due to
          material breach by Motive, HP may, in its sole discretion, (1) have
          [*] to return the Licensed Product(s) and Documentation that were
          licensed on a [*] basis, provided HP has paid all outstanding license
          fees or (2) request and Motive shall be obliged to [*] (in addition to
          any other remedies in law or equity available to HP). If the Licensed
          Products were licensed on a [*] basis, HP may elect to continue using
          the Licensed Products on a Sustaining Use basis by paying the amount
          agreed to in a pricing schedule or return the Licensed Products and
          make [*] for the Licensed Products and Documentation.

     6.6. The obligations of the parties under sections entitled "Return of
          Properties," "Warranty," "Confidential Information," and
          "Indemnification" shall not expire upon termination of this Agreement
          or any license hereunder. If HP terminates this Agreement due to
          material breach by Motive than the obligation under the section
          entitled "Rights Granted" shall survive termination of this Agreement.
          Any remedy expressed herein is nonexclusive of any other remedies at
          law or in equity.

     6.7. Motive may terminate this Agreement in the case of a material breach
          of Sub Section 2.7 under the Section "Rights Granted" if HP has not
          cured the breach within [*] days of written notice. Upon such
          termination of this Agreement by Motive, the license and all other
          rights granted to HP shall cease, and HP shall immediately (i) return
          the Licensed Product(s), Documentation and all copies thereof to
          Motive or alternatively, provide written certification that all copies
          of the Licensed Product(s) and Documentation have been destroyed, (ii)
          purge all copies of the Licensed Product(s) or any portion thereof
          from all computers and from any computer storage device or medium on
          which HP has placed or has permitted others to place the Licensed
          Product(s). Termination is not an exclusive remedy and all other
          remedies will be available whether or not termination occurs.

7. WARRANTIES
   ----------

     7.1. Motive warrants and represents that the Licensed Product(s) shall
          operate in material conformance with the Specification throughout the
          Warranty Period.

     7.2. If during the Warranty Period HP gives Motive oral or written notice
          of non-conformity of the Licensed Product(s) with the Specification,
          Motive shall investigate such as soon as possible (but not later than
          [*] after receipt of such notice). Motive will then classify the
          problem with concurrence by HP, as either a problem preventing normal
          operations ("Category A"), or other problem ("Category B"). Motive
          will provide commercially reasonable efforts to correct all Category A
          problems within twenty-four hours of notice and Category B problems
          within [*] days.

     7.3. At any time during the Warranty Period, if HP has notified Motive of a
          failure of the Licensed Product(s) to materially meet the
          Specification and Motive has not fixed the non-conformity within [*];
          Motive will at its option either i) replace the non-conforming
          Licensed Product(s) with a compatible functionally equivalent
          conforming product, or ii) refund all license fees paid to Motive for
          the non-conforming Licensed Product(s) pursuant to this Agreement,
          provided that HP immediately returns the Licensed Product(s) to
          Motive. In the case of a Licensed Product(s) which was licensed on a
          [*] basis, the parties will mutually agree to the equitable portion of
          [*] payment, attributable to the unaccepted Licensed Product, to be
          reimbursed.

<PAGE>

     7.4.  Motive warrants that the Licensed Product(s) shall be compatible with
           the Operating System, application programs, computing equipment, and
           networks contemplated by the Documentation.

     7.5.  Motive warrants and represents that all software, hardware and
           firmware (collectively "Product(s)(s)") furnished under this
           Agreement are "Year 2000 Compliant." Year 2000 Compliant Product(s)s
           will perform without error, loss of data or loss of functionality
           arising from any failure to process, calculate, compare or sequence
           data accurately. In addition, Year 2000 Compliant Product(s)s will
           not cause any associated products or systems in which they may be
           used to fail in any of the ways described herein. This Year 2000
           Compliance warranty shall remain in effect through December 31, 2000,
           notwithstanding any other warranty period specified in this
           Agreement.

     7.6.  Illicit Code: Motive strictly warrants that no program that Motive
           provides to HP will: (1) contain hidden files; (2) have any "time
           bomb"; (3) replicate, transmit, or activate itself without control of
           a person operating computing equipment on which it resides; (4)
           alter, damage, or erase any data or computer programs without control
           of a person operating the computing equipment on which it resides; or
           (5) contain any key, node lock, time-out or other function [whether
           implemented by electronic, mechanical or other means] which restricts
           or may restrict use or access to programs or data based on residency
           on a specific hardware configuration, frequency or duration of use,
           or other limiting criteria. If this warranty is breached,
           notwithstanding anything elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary,
           Motive shall be in material breach of this Agreement.

     7.7.  Motive warrants that it has, as of the date of delivery and
           perpetually thereafter, free and clear title, and all proprietary
           rights to, the Licensed Product(s) and any related product that will
           be used in connection with the Licensed Product(s). Motive warrants
           that it has the rights to possess, use, sell, license, transfer,
           lease, and assign any and all products that are sold, leased, rented,
           licensed, or otherwise provided to HP by Motive.

     7.8.  Motive warrants that HP's use of any Licensed Product(s) or other
           product provided in connection with this Agreement will not infringe
           any patent, trademark, copyright, or other proprietary right of any
           third party. Motive further warrants any information disclosed to HP
           will not contain any trade secrets of any third party, unless
           disclosure is permitted by such third party.

     7.9.  Motive warrants that the Licensed Product(s), the license to HP by

     7.10. Motive warrants that it is financially capable of fulfilling all
           requirements of this Agreement, that there are no legal proceedings
           against Motive or any related entity that could threaten performance

           loan, contract, financing arrangement, etc. from entering into this
           Agreement.

           this Agreement, Motive becomes aware of any action, suit or

     7.13. EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTIES SET FORTH ABOVE, LICENSOR

8.   CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
     ------------------------

     8.1.  To the extent that confidential information is involved, it is agreed
           that the party disclosing such information ("Discloser") shall
           clearly identify such information as confidential when furnishing it
           to the other party ("Recipient"). In the case of information
           transmitted in writing, such identification will be made by marking
           such information clearly as confidential or proprietary; and in the
           case of information transmitted orally, the Discloser shall provide,
           within thirty days after the disclosure, a written communication
           clearly identifying such confidential information as it has provided.
           Any information properly designated in accordance with this paragraph
           is defined

Confidential                        Page 5                              (121099)
<PAGE>

          as "Confidential Information," for purposes of this Agreement.
          However, any information disclosed to Motive over HP's internal
          electronic Assets/Systems including but not limited to voice mail,
          electronic mail or HP's UNIX system(s) shall automatically be deemed
          to be HP's confidential and proprietary information whether or not
          marked. Information gathered from HP's internal electronic
          Assets/Systems by Motive, in electronic form or otherwise, which
          identifies and analyzes the performance, problems, and support issues
          solely and directly relating to the Licensed Product(s) is not
          considered HP's Confidential Information. Motive's Documentation and
          any information regarding the, architecture, protocols, structure, or
          sequence of the Licensed Product(s) will be considered Motive's
          confidential and proprietary information.

     8.2. Access to Assets/Systems, if any, is granted solely to facilitate the
          business relationship described in this Agreement, and is limited to
          those specific Assets/Systems, time periods, and personnel designated
          by Motive as are separately agreed to by HP and Motive from time to
          time. Access is subject to business control and information protection
          policies, standards, and guidelines as may be provided by HP. Use of
          any other Assets/Systems is expressly prohibited. This prohibition
          applies even when an Asset/System which Motive is authorized to access
          serves as a gateway to other Assets/Systems outside the scope of
          Motive's authorization. Use of Assets/Systems during other time
          periods or by individuals not authorized by HP is expressly
          prohibited. Without limiting the foregoing, Motive warrants that it
          has adequate security measures in place to comply with HP information
          Assets/Systems. Upon reasonable notice, HP may audit Motive to verify
          Motive's compliance with these obligations.

     8.3. Recipient shall keep all Confidential Information in confidence. A
          Recipient of Confidential Information shall protect such information
          by using at least the same degree of care, but no less than a
          reasonable degree of care, as Recipient uses to protect its own
          information of a similar nature which it does not desire to have
          disseminated or published.

     8.4. Notwithstanding other statements in this Agreement to the contrary,
          Motive acknowledges that in performing under this Agreement, both
          Motive and its employees may be exposed to extremely sensitive
          Confidential Information stored at HP or on HP's internal servers and
          databases, for which there is no adequate remedy at law in the case of
          disclosure or threatened disclosure. Such exposure could potentially
          be gained through physical presence of Motive's representatives at HP
          Sites or through electronic access by Motive or its representatives
          with HP's computing systems. As to such information, Motive shall be
          liable for any [*] actually suffered by HP, notwithstanding any limit
          of liability limitation in this Agreement. Motive shall not be
          strictly liable for the acts of its employees, excepting the instances
          where the acts in question constitute deliberate misconduct or gross
          negligence on the part of Motive, or were enabled by gross negligence
          on the part of Motive in failing to take reasonable measures or at
          least the same measures Motive uses for similar information, to
          protect the security of HP's confidential information.

     8.5. A Recipient shall restrict access to Confidential Information to those
          of its employees having a need to know. A Recipient's obligations of
          confidentiality shall continue five years from date of disclosure and
          survive the termination of this Agreement.

     8.6. Confidential Information does not include information that:

          .    was in the Recipient's possession before receipt from the
               Discloser;

          .    is or becomes a matter of public knowledge through no fault of
               Recipient;

          .    is rightfully received by Recipient from a third party without a
               duty of confidentiality;

          .    is disclosed by the Discloser to a third party without a duty of
               confidentiality on the third party;

          .    is independently developed by Recipient;

          .    is disclosed under operation of law;

          .    is disclosed by Recipient with Discloser's prior written
               approval; or

          .    is Object Code.

     8.7. Motive is responsible for and warrants and represents that each
          employee, agent or subcontractor who performs work under this
          Agreement has been informed of the obligations contained herein and
          had agreed to be bound by them. It is also the responsibility of
          Motive to track any necessary form to prove they have in fact informed
          their employees, agents or subcontractors of the obligations stated in
          this Agreement.

9.   PUBLICITY
     ---------

     9.1.  Neither party shall use the name(s), trademark(s) or tradename(s),
           whether registered or not, of the other party in publicity releases
           or advertising or in any other manner, including customer lists,
           without securing the prior written approval of the other party.

     9.2.  Each party agrees not to publicize or disclose either the terms of
           this Agreement or the fact of its agreement and execution. In
           particular, no press releases shall be made without the mutual
           consent of Motive and HP.

10.  INDEMNIFICATION
     ---------------

     10.1. Motive shall defend all suits or proceedings brought against HP
           arising from claimed infringement of any third party intellectual
           property right by Licensed Product(s) or any other product(s)
           provided to HP by Motive. Motive shall indemnify HP against all
           costs, fees and damages in any such suit or proceeding. HP shall
           promptly notify Motive in writing and provide information and
           assistance, at Motive's expense, for such defense.

     10.2. In the event that use of the Licensed Product(s) by HP is enjoined,
           Motive shall at its option; (i) replace the Licensed Product(s),
           without additional charge, by a compatible, functionally equivalent
           and non-infringing product; (ii) modify the Licensed Product(s) to
           avoid the infringement, provided such modification(s) do not
           significantly change the functionality of the Licensed Product(s);
           (iii) obtain a license for HP to continue use of the Licensed
           Product(s) for the term of this Agreement and pay for any additional
           fee required for such license; or, (iv) if none of the foregoing
           alternatives is possible even after the Motive's reasonable
           commercial efforts, the Motive shall return to HP all fees paid for
           the Licensed Product(s).

     10.3. Motive shall be relieved of its obligations under this section to the
           extent that a court of law finds that infringement arises solely and
           directly out of compliance with HP's written specifications.

11.  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
     -----------------------

     11.1. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH ELSEWHERE IN THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL
           EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
           INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF OR
           RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT EVEN IF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES

           AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION HEREOF, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY
           BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR DAMAGES FOR ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER IN AN
           AMOUNT IN EXCESS OF THE [*] UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

12.  MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT
     -----------------------

     12.1. This Agreement and the license provided under it are not conditioned
           upon HP's entry into a maintenance or support relationship with
           Motive or any other entity. HP shall be free to seek, obtain or
           provide maintenance and support as it sees fit.

     12.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Motive shall, at HP's election,
           provide support and maintenance services as described in this
           Section.

     12.3. During the period for which the HP has subscribed to and paid for
           contracted annual maintenance and support for the Licensed
           Product(s), Motive will provide the following maintenance support of
           the current version of Licensed Product(s) (Motive will also support
           the [*] of the Licensed Product(s) for a period of [*] months. In the
           event HP acquires additional licenses beyond its initial acquisition,

           terminus with HP's existing maintenance period.

     12.4. Motive's Standard Maintenance and Support Plan shall include (i) New
           Releases, New Versions, internationalized or localization versions,
           and successor products which replace a Licensed Product then

           Corrections - To supply code corrections to correct material
           deviations of unmodified Licensed Product(s) from the Specifications;

            normal principal period of service ("PPS") during the hours of [*],
            CST, Mon. - Fri., except Motive holidays. If on-site assistance is
            required and the problem is the failure of the Licensed Product(s)
            to materially perform to Specifications, no charge will be made. If
            the problem is due to other causes, Motive's then-current
            professional services rates for such services will be applicable and
            payable by HP.

     12.5.  Motive [*] Extended Maintenance and Support Plan. The premium

     12.6.  Renewal; Charges for Subsequent Years. Unless stated otherwise in a

            maintenance term, Motive's obligation to provide maintenance and
            support services as described above will continue and HP's
            obligation to pay Motive the mutually agreed to maintenance and
            support charges shall be automatically renewed on either (i) the
            anniversary date of the first Licensed Product(s) delivery hereunder
            or (ii) the coterminous HP annual renewal date (annual billing date)
            for all such maintenance and support services unless HP has given
            Motive prior written notice as defined below canceling Motive's
            maintenance and support. Unless stated otherwise in a pricing
            schedule, HP will be invoiced for annual maintenance for subsequent
            years [*] days prior to the expiration of the annual maintenance
            period.

     12.7.  Cancellation. HP may cancel its subscription in the maintenance and
            support plan(s) effective as of the next anniversary or coterminous
            annual renewal date by written notice to Motive received prior to
            the annual renewal date, or if there is an increase in annual
            maintenance and support charges over the preceding year by giving
            Motive written notice of cancellation within thirty (30) days of
            receipt of Motive's invoice or price quotation notice showing such
            increase.

     12.8.  If Motive materially breaches its maintenance and support services
            obligations, HP may terminate such services at any time by giving
            [*] days prior written notice to Motive and HP shall be entitled to
            a [*] of [*] to Motive for any unused portion of maintenance and
            support services, in whole or in part, for the affected Licensed
            Product(s).

     12.9.  Reinstatement. HP may reinstate maintenance at a later time by
            paying the the mutually agreed to maintenance and support charges
            plus a fee equal to the then current maintenance and support fees
            for the Licensed Product(s) times the number of annual periods the
            subscription was interrupted or [*] of the license fee for the
            Licensed Product(s) at the time the license was purchased, whichever
            is less.

     12.10. Scope of Coverage. Motive's maintenance support policy requires that
            (i) the same level of services shall apply to all Licensed
            Product(s) at the installation site, (ii) HP shall bring or keep all
            Licensed Product(s) it has acquired at an installation under current
            contracted maintenance in order to receive the maintenance update
            services defined in the maintenance program. The automated reporting
            routines contained in the Licensed Product(s) which identifies and
            analyzes the use and performance of the Licensed Product(s)
            including problems and issues that arise in connection therewith
            will be used by Motive to provide support services, and improve,
            enhance the performance of the Licensed Product(s)s offered by
            Motive

     12.11. Limitations on Motive's Obligations. HP understands and agrees that
            Motive may develop and market new or different computer programs or
            features which use part of the Licensed Product(s) and which perform
            part of the functions performed by the Licensed Product(s). Nothing
            contained in this Agreement gives HP any rights with respect to such
            products.

     12.12. Exclusions. Motive shall have no obligation to correct any error
            resulting from: (i) altered Licensed Product(s) or any portion of a
            Licensed Product(s) incorporated with or into another software to
            the extent the error is the sole result of such alteration, or
            incorporation; (ii) use of a Licensed Product(s) that is not the
            then current release or immediately Previous Sequential Release; or
            (iii) Licensed Product(s) problems caused by HP's negligence, abuse
            or misapplication, or use of Licensed Product(s) other than as
            specified in Motive's user manual.

            as a result of such termination.
