Trademarks granted in this Agreement upon demonstration by
Licensor that a use of Licensor's Trademarks by Licensee does not
meet Licensor's quality standards as previously notified in
writing to Licensee. Licensor may terminate such Trademark License
rights upon ninety days written notice to Licensee; provided,
however, that such termination notice shall have no effect if
Licensee cures the quality defects within the ninety day cure
period.
3 LICENSOR OBLIGATIONS
3.1 Within fifteen (15) days following the Commencement Date, Licensor
shall provide the Licensee with the Deliverables.
3.2 During the Jeode Source Code training (a proposal for which is
detailed in Schedule 5) Licensor shall provide Licensee with specific
instruction on the use of all external APIs and various lower level
APIs as Licensee requires. Licensor shall also explain its estimation
of the probability of potential for change in each available API and
recommend the APIs that are likely to be best used by Licensee.
3.3 Prior to Licensee beginning any development of the Jeode Software that
is dependent on APIs, upon Licensee's request Licensor shall provide
Licensee with a comprehensive update on the status and outlook for any
potential changes required to the Jeode Software.
3.4 For APIs that may evolve based on effects of new releases of Java
technology from Sun, Licensor shall proactively inform Licensee of
these pending changes promptly after it is informed of the same and
will keep any API changes to a minimum and provide Licensee with
advanced specifications and implementations of the API changes.
3.5 At any time Licensee may notify Licensor of any API which Licensee
considers is important. In which event Licensor shall use commercially
reasonable endeavours to collaborate with Licensee in relation to any
proposed changes to such API.
3.6 Licensee may at its sole discretion determine that a new API should be
created to insulate it from underlying changes in the Jeode Software.
In such event and consistent with Clause 7.11, Licensor will endeavor
to co-operate with Licensee to accommodate all Licensee's reasonable
requests. The specification for each proposed new API or modified API
shall be agreed to by Licensor (such agreement not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed). Licensor shall treat such API as Confidential
Information for the purposes of this Agreement as requested by
Licensee.
6
3.7 Licensor shall use commercially reasonable endeavours to comply with
Sun Java specifications for the embedded markets, as evidenced by
compliance with Sun Java technology compatibility kits. Licensor shall
promptly notify Licensee if a commercial release fails to comply with
Sun Java technology compatibility kits or if it no longer is a Sun
Java licensee.
4 TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENTS
4.1 The Parties wish to cooperate in developing the definition, direction and
timing of various enhancements to the Jeode Software. To this end the
Parties have agreed the following:
4.1.1 Licensor and Licensee shall each provide to the other by the end
of each Quarter during the term of this Agreement a Product
Roadmap. The Product Roadmap is a representation of Licensor's
current plans and is not a commitment to develop or deliver future
products.
4.1.2 Licensee may at any time submit a Product Enhancement Request to
Licensor. Licensor shall within 5 business days of receipt of the
Product Enhancement Request:
4.1.3 consider the contents of the Product Enhancement Request and at
its sole and absolute discretion advise Licensee that it will
either decline to participate in the Product Enhancement Request
or that it will prepare a statement of work setting forth
Licensor's estimate of the man-hours for completing the Product
Enhancement Request, a specification for the enhancement, and
details of any acceptance testing to be undertaken.
(a) If Licensor decides a Product Enhancement should be made
part of a standard release of Jeode Software Licensor will
undertake the development work and (if the enhancement
passes the acceptance tests detailed in the statement of
works) include the enhancement in a future release of the
Jeode Software, all at no cost to Licensee. If Licensor
decides that the enhancement should be made as a standard
release but that it is unable to create the enhancement
within the timescales requested, Licensor will promptly
inform Licensee and Licensee may at its sole and absolute
discretion undertake (or pursuant to the licenses granted
in Clauses 2.1 including 2.1.3 for the purpose of procuring
that the work is undertaken so as) to create the
enhancement.
4.1.4 In the event that Licensee wants certain enhancements to the Jeode
Software and requires an exclusive right to use, copy, adapt,
create derivative works of, distribute, sell, sublicense and
commercially exploit the enhancement then Licensee may at its sole
and absolute discretion decide either:
(a) to ask Licensor to undertake the work in which event
Licensor shall (pursuant to Clause 7.11) provide the
enhancement to Licensee and grant Licensee an exclusive,
transferable (pursuant to Clause 18.11), worldwide license
to copy, adapt, sublicense and generally exploit the Jeode
Software with the enhancement; or
(b) may perform the work itself or procure the work from a
third party. For the avoidance of doubt all Intellectual
Property in the enhancement
7
(other than the Licensor's underlying Intellectual Property
in the Jeode Software not relating to the enhancement)
produced pursuant to this Clause 4.1.4(b) shall vest in the
Licensee and not in Licensor. Thereafter the Licensee may
in its sole and absolute discretion provide the enhancement
to Licensor with the license set forth in Clause 4.1.6 to
store the Licensee Code (as defined in Clause 4.1.6) and
Documentation of the enhancement on Licensor's development
or maintenance systems on Licensee's behalf. Such exclusive
enhancements may not be copied, modified, translated,
reverse engineered, decompiled, disassembled, sub-licensed,
demonstrated, lent, hired or otherwise provided to any
third party by Licensor. If Licensor stores the enhancement
for Licensee then Licensor shall ensure that the
enhancement is kept secure from unauthorised access with
the same degree of care Licensor uses to protect its own
software, and the Parties agree that the enhancement will
be treated as Confidential Information.
4.1.5 Any enhancement made by Licensor for the purposes of fixing bugs
or errors shall be without charge to Licensee if the bug or error
is not caused by Licensee or its contractors.
4.1.6 Treatment of Licensee Code. Subject to Licensor's underlying
Intellectual Property Rights in the Jeode Software other than the
enhancement, Licensee will own all right, title and interest in,
to and under all works made by or on behalf of Licensee to Jeode
Software, including without limitation, porting-related
modifications and/or other code owned or possessed by Licensee for
the development or maintenance of the Jeode Software ("Licensee
Code"). Licensee, in its sole discretion, may make Licensee Code
and related Documentation available to Licensor; provided,
however, that unless otherwise expressly provided in writing by
Licensee, such Licensee Code and Documentation shall be treated by
Licensor as Confidential Information and Licensor's use of such
Licensee Code and Documentation shall be limited solely to the
purposes of providing services to Licensee under the terms of this
Agreement, and for no other purpose. Licensor shall not (and shall
not permit any third party to) copy, modify, translate, reverse
engineer, decompile, disassemble, sub-license, demonstrate, lend
or hire the Licensee Code or grant any security interest in
relation thereto or otherwise provide Licensee Code or
Documentation to any third party. Notwithstanding any other
provision hereof or any other agreement between the Parties,
Licensor's access to Licensee Code and Documentation pursuant to
this Agreement, shall not be construed as preventing employees of
Licensor who lawfully have had access to such Licensee Code and
Documentation from drawing upon or using any skills, knowledge,
talent or experience of a general nature acquired by them in the
course of working with such Licensee Code and Documentation,
provided that (i) such employees may not directly or indirectly
use, copy, modify, adapt, create derivative works of, refer to or
rely on the Licensee Code or Documentation and (ii) such employees
do not infringe Licensee Intellectual Property rights or
confidentiality obligations not otherwise within the scope of any
express written licenses granted to Licensor.
8
5 DOCUMENTATION
Licensor shall provide to Licensee electronic copies of the Documentation
containing all information relating to the Jeode Software which will
enable Licensee to exercise its license rights hereunder. Licensee may
copy (in any media or format) adapt, modify or merge the Documentation
provided that it complies with Clause 2.4 in relation to Licensor's
Trademarks and copyright notices.
6 MARKETING AND SALES SUPPORT
6.1 LEADS
Licensor shall immediately pass to Licensee all sales leads and enquiries
relating to Wind River Operating Systems and provide to Licensee details
concerning the leads and enquiries by way of completing the proforma lead
sheet a specimen of which is attached at Appendix E. If Licensor is of
the reasonable opinion (after making all relevant enquiries) that the
enquirer is interested in more than one operating system then Licensor
shall also pass the lead and all details relating thereto to such other
vendors as Licensor deems appropriate.
6.2 GENERAL SALES SUPPORT
Licensor will provide Licensee with all support, cooperation and
resources so as to enable Licensee to sublicense sell and exploit the
Jeode Software pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
6.3 PRE-INTEGRATION SALES POLICY
Licensor acknowledges and accepts that once the terms of this Agreement
are announced in an agreed upon public statement pursuant to Clause 18.3,
some of Licensor's customers will want to migrate to Licensee and become
customers of Licensee. Accordingly, Licensor shall within thirty (30)
days of Commencement Date implement a non-discriminatory sales
compensation system among its representatives so as to reasonably ensure
that such customers are not penalised (financially or otherwise) in doing
so including (without limitation):
(a) disclosing to the customer the nature of the relationship
between the Parties (subject to obtaining Licensee's prior
written consent and ensuring the customer executes a
non-disclosure agreement); and
(b) cooperating with Licensee so as to keep redundant fees
(such as maintenance fees) payable by the customer to a
minimum.
6.4 Licensor shall provide to Licensee electronic versions of all appropriate
product marketing materials relating to the Jeode Software, including
without limitation, any data sheets, Licensor presentations, web content,
and Licensor training materials generated by or in the possession of
Licensor. Licensee shall have the unfettered right to copy, adapt, modify
re-brand and re-purpose such material for its own product marketing
efforts.
6.5 Licensee shall be solely responsible for compliance with and the
obtaining of any export licenses which may be required for distribution
by Licensee. Licensor shall promptly provide answers to Licensee
technical questions relating to the Jeode Software where
9
such questions are not answered by the Documentation to enable Licensee
to obtain such export licenses.
6.6 Licensor will designate at least two technical experts who will serve as
points-of-contact to address questions and issues that arise from
pre-sales opportunities. Licensor will make every reasonable effort to
assist Licensee in meeting Licensee requests for Jeode Software
information during pre-sales engagements and accordingly will agree to
provide additional resources and/or technical experts which are
reasonably necessary to meet this demand. Such investment of Licensor
resource for a given case will be reasonably balanced against the value
of the relevant opportunity and the total pre-sales support load that
Licensee is requesting from Licensor.
7 PAYMENT AND CHARGES
7.1 MINIMUM QUARTERLY FEES SCHEDULE
7.1.1 The Parties have agreed that over the term of this Agreement
Licensee shall pay the Minimum Quarterly Fees. The Parties shall
treat such Minimum Quarterly Fees as prepayment of the
transactional royalties and fees detailed in Clauses 7.3, 7.4 and
7.5.2. The payment of Minimum Quarterly Fees will build up a
credit against the transactional royalties and fees detailed in
Clauses 7.3, 7.4 and 7.5.2 which arise as a result of sales or
licenses of Jeode Based Products and/or Jeode Source Code
("TRANSACTIONAL LICENSE FEES"). The Transactional License Fees
shall be offset against the cumulative Minimum Quarterly Fees
credit so that (in addition to continuing to pay the Minimum
Quarterly Fees) Licensee shall only pay an amount exceeding the
Minimum Quarterly Fees (as Transactional License Fees) if and when
the total aggregate Transactional License Fees exceeds the unused
portion of the cumulative Minimum Quarterly Fees credit.
An illustration of the process described in this Clause 7.1 (and
Clause 14.3.1) is set out in Appendix F.
7.1.2 As consideration for the licenses granted in Clause 2.1 and the
benefits and services pursuant to Clauses 7.3, 7.4 and 7.5.2 (but
not 7.7 to 7.11), Licensee shall pay the following Minimum
Quarterly Fees:
$XXXX on execution of this Agreement;
$XXXX no later than March 15, 2001;
$XXXX on each of June 15, 2001, September 15, 2001; and December
15, 2001;
$XXXX on each of on or before the 15th day of the last month of
each Quarter in 2002;
$XXXX on each of on or before the 15th day of the last month of
each Quarter in 2003.
If the Agreement continues into 2003 then no later than six months
prior to the end of 2003 the Parties shall negotiate new fees
payable for the year 2004 onwards.
10
7.2 SPECIAL OPTION
If, at any time during the course of Licensee FY02 business year
(February 1, 2001 - January 31, 2002), Licensee determines in its sole
and absolute discretion that the Minimum Quarterly Fees exceeds
Licensee's actual distribution rate for Jeode Based Products, it may
notify Licensor, no earlier than March 1, 2002, that it wishes to
discontinue paying the Minimum Quarterly Fees 90 days from the date of
receipt of notice to the Licensor of such an election. All payments due
Licensor hereunder within that 90-day period nevertheless shall be paid

following the end of the 90-period provided in this Clause 7.2.
Thereafter, Licensee's rights granted hereunder, to the extent such
rights are not already non-exclusive, shall be deemed non-exclusive. If
Licensee exercises this option, it will continue to report its usage
pursuant to Clause 7.16.1, and once the Minimum Quarterly Fees have been
fully utilized (as described in Clause 7.1) it shall begin remitting
Transactional License Fees to Licensor with its reports on and as used

shall have the option to advise Licensor at least forty-five (45) days
prior to the beginning of any Quarter, that Licensee will make payments
due Sun by paying Licensor, which payments will pass through Licensor and

on the same or substantially similar terms to the terms of this Agreement
and at lower prices than those agreed hereunder, then such lower prices

Date. Subsequent Minimum Quarterly Fees will be due on the Quarter

binding on a Party unless the same shall have been mutually assented to
in writing by all Parties. The failure of a Party to enforce at any time
any of the provisions of this Agreement, or the failure to require at any
time performance by the other Party of any of the provisions of this
Agreement, shall in no way be construed to be a present or future waiver
of such provisions, nor in any way affect the ability of a Party to
enforce each and every such provision thereafter.

JEODE SOFTWARE
JEODE PRODUCT SUMMARY
The Jeode product is Insignia's implementation of Sun's Java(TM) technology,
compatible with specifications published by Sun, and specifically developed to
run Java applications on embedded systems and Internet Appliances.
Jeode allows developers to create reliable, efficient, and predictable Java
applications for these types of device.
COMPONENTS OF JEODE
The Jeode product consists of two components: JeodeRUNTIME(TM)and
JeodeSUITE(TM).
JEODERUNTIME
JeodeRUNTIME is the Jeode product runtime environment on your target platform.
It consists of the Jeode EVM(TM) (Embedded Virtual Machine(TM)), and the
JeodeCLASS(TM) embedded class libraries:
1. JEODE EVM
The Jeode EVM allows you to run Java applications on embedded
systems. The EVM is highly configurable and tunable for the
specific embedded application, with a dynamic compiler for combined
fast execution and a small memory footprint.
2. JEODECLASS
JeodeCLASS embedded class libraries are compatible with Sun's Java
specifications (for Personal or Embedded Java, depending on the
platform).
JEODESUITE
JeodeSUITE is the set of tools provided to help you develop and run Java
applications using your host platform. It consists of JeodeBUILD(TM) and
JeodeDEBUG(TM):
1. JEODEBUILD
JeodeBUILD is the set of build-time tools for editing, compiling, and
browsing the Java application. These tools are available either with
the Jeode product or from third-party suppliers (such as the Sun JDK).
2. JEODEDEBUG
JeodeDEBUG is the set of runtime utilities for examining the behavior
of the Java application and JeodeRUNTIME. JeodeDEBUG tools currently
include JeodeMONITOR. Source-level debuggers are provided by
third-party vendors - for example, Sun's jdb tool. Jeode also supports
standard tool interfaces, as specified by Sun, such as for debugging
(JVMDI/JDWP) and for profiling (JVMPI).
27
CD COMPONENTS
The Jeode product is available as a Binary or a Source CD.
BINARY CD
The binary CD is installable on a Windows NT PC, and provides JeodeSuite tools
for the NT PC, and the JeodeRuntime product for the selected target device.
JeodeRuntime should then be downloaded onto the required target device from the
PC.
So, for example, with the Jeode 1.7 release, binary CD components include:
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
DIRECTORY NAME CONTAINS
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
BIN Tools executable wrappers.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
DEMO Demonstration java applications and launch files.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
DOCS Binary HTML documentation.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
INCLUDE Header files (for Sun interfaces such as JVMPI).
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
LIB JeodeSuite tools.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
SAMPLE sample source for JNI invocation.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
[TARGET OS NAME] JeodeRuntime for the target device.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
SOURCE CD
The source CD contains the source code comprising the Jeode product, and the
tools required to build the binary Jeode product.
So, for example, with the Jeode 1.7 release, source CD components include:
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
DIRECTORY NAME CONTAINS
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
ARCHS Target architecture-specific code (for example, for MIPS devices).
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
BASE Base (common) code for the Jeode product.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
DEMO Demonstration java applications and launch files.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
DOCS Source HTML documentation.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
DOCS-BIN Binary-only HTML documentation.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
28
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
DRL Defines the contents of the Jeode product.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
GEN Generated files.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
JAVA JeodeRuntime for the target device.
------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
OS Target OS-specific code (for example, for Windows CE OS's).

The following scenarios are envisaged:
(a) Insignia receives a problem report and a proposed fix from the
source customer:
(i) Insignia either accepts a fix and incorporates into
Insignia Main development line or issues Insignia `approved
fix'. This will go through the Insignia's Java Change
Notification (JCN) process
(ii) Source code fixes/changes will be identified by a Insignia
JCN number
(iii) JCN updates will be issued to source code customers for
their specific reference platform on a regular basis.

reference platform:
(i) Should be verified by the source customer's support group
on the reference platform before logging a case with
Insignia
(ii) Should be submitted with results of verification + test
applications
(iii) Insignia identifies problem and issues a `test' fix
47
(iv) The `test' fix is verified by the source customer/their
customer
(v) If the fix is verified Insignia issues a JCN and
incorporates change into the main line
(c) Insignia receives a bug report that can not be verified on the
reference platform:
(i) In order to obtain support from Insignia the source
customer must send Insignia the source code, object code
and build environment for the specific platform along with
hardware on which the problem can be reproduced. The case
details should be submitted with results of verification +

resolve the problem at standard Insignia engineering rates.
This includes full expenses for on-site customer visits.
4 STANDARD INSIGNIA MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT GUIDELINES
(a) General Classification of Difficulties. Upon Acceptance, the
source customer shall provide First Level Support to all
Distributors and End Users. Insignia shall provide support to
source customers only, and agrees to use reasonable business
efforts to rectify support cases for the Product when identified,
classified and reported by the source customer on JeodeAssist web
based support problem reporting facility:
Priority Codes (based in customer impact)
P1 - Critical - the fix is usually a patch or workaround
P2 - Urgent - the fix is usually a patch or workaround
P3 - Normal - these bugs normally get fixed in maintenance
releases or the next major release, only rarely do they get issued
as patches
P4 - Low - Address possibly for the next release - could be a
patch release. Keep these on record in case we want to fix them
later, or the number of customers reporting on the problem becomes
significant and we decide to increase the priority.
(b) The final classification of Priority Codes for each Software
Change Request will be mutually agreed among Insignia and the
source customer.
(c) Priority Codes
---------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------

requires an immediate solution.
---------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------
P2 Urgent A `Severe Impact' condition. Precludes one or more
major functions from being performed. A problem in
critical functionality with a workaround, a
condition that severely restricts the End User's
operation but such user can continue to use the
program, or a condition, which makes the
performance of any or more functions difficult.
This problem cannot be readily circumvented or
avoided on a temporary basis by the End User and
requires a rapid solution.
---------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------
P3 Normal A `Degradation' condition. Disables one or
more non-essential functions. Problem in a
non-critical functionality without a
workaround, a limited condition that cannot
be readily circumvented or avoided on a
