5. MOST FAVORED CUSTOMER
5.1 eSoft agrees to treat Gateway as a most favored customer. eSoft
represents that all of the license and consulting fees, prices,
warranties, benefits and other terms set forth hereunder are
equivalent to or no less favorable than the terms being offered by
eSoft to its other customers and distributors who order similar or
lower volumes of the Licensed Product(s). If, during the term of
this Agreement or any renewal hereof, eSoft agrees to provide more
favorable terms than are provided hereunder to a customer who orders
similar or lower volumes of the Licensed Product(s), then this
Agreement shall be deemed appropriately amended to provide such
terms to Gateway on a going forward basis. Subject to its
confidentiality obligations to such customer, eSoft will promptly
notify Gateway in writing if, during the term of this Agreement, it
agrees to provide more favorable terms to a customer who orders, or
commits to order, higher volumes of the Licensed Product(s). Such
notice will include the nature of the terms offered to such customer
and the level of commitment made by the customer.

shall
***CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

compliance with the preceding paragraph, Gateway shall bear all
costs of such examination.

software onto a Gateway Product that includes one or more Licensed
Products. Subject to any confidentiality obligations to third
parties, each Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to
notify the other Party of opportunities for integration described in
the preceding sentence. Without limiting the non-exclusive nature of
the obligation described in this Section 5.3, eSoft acknowledges and
agrees that Gateway may elect to pursue opportunities with ASPs on
its own or with other third parties if Gateway decides, in its sole

improve the quality, utility, efficiency and reliability of the
eSoft Software via Upgrades. eSoft will provide all Enhancements to

eSoft makes such Enhancements generally available. eSoft agrees to
advise Gateway of any Upgrade or Major Release at least ninety (90)
days prior to the scheduled release date of such Upgrade or Major
Release. Unless eSoft distributes such Enhancement, Upgrade or Major
Release through a software download or other electronic means, eSoft

own internal use. To the extent that any Gateway Deliverable may
not, by operation of law, be deemed a "work made for hire," eSoft
hereby assigns to Gateway all right, title and interest in and to
all Gateway Deliverables, including all copyrights and other
intellectual property rights inherent therein or related thereto.
eSoft does not convey nor does Gateway obtain any right in any

RENTAL CARS
Gateway's preferred rental car companies are National (800-CAR-RENT) ID #
5765874 and Hertz Car Rental (619/220-5222) ID# 348179. These rental car
companies should be used by consultant whenever possible under the Gateway
corporate rate. A consultant must refuel the rental vehicle prior to its return.
Refueling by the rental car company is not a reimbursable expense. Gateway will
not reimburse travelers for any traffic or parking violations he/she may incur.
Insurance offered by the car rental agencies is not a reimbursable expense. It
is the responsibility of consultant's company to ensure the consultant has
sufficient insurance coverage for business purposes.
The size of the rental car is based on the amount of travelers. 1 to 4
consultants traveling together may rent a mid-size model; 5 to 6 consultants
traveling together may rent a full-size model; and more than 6 consultants
traveling together may rent a mini-van or 2 mid-size models. Consultants
traveling outside
00
XXXXXXX X
xxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx should consider alternate modes of transportation prior to
requesting a rental car. Often times, trains, taxis or buses will be more
efficient and less cost prohibitive.
TRAVEL BY PERSONAL AUTOMOBILE
In the event travel by personal automobile is more cost-effective than another
mode of transportation and is approved by the Project Manager responsible for
the Gateway consulting job, a mileage allowance of $0.31 per mile will be used
to reimburse the consultant for the use of their personal car. This allowance
rate covers all out-of-pocket operating expenses as well as any wear and tear on
the vehicle. Distance will be the actual mileage incurred and indicated on the
consultant's expense report. Gateway will reimburse for travel to/from Gateway's
place of business, but not for personal travel or travel for entertainment.
MEAL EXPENSES
For domestic business, meals will be reimbursed on an actual and reasonable
basis up to the IRS guideline of $36 per day. The current maximum federal per
diem rates for meals and incidental expenses (including laundry expenses, fees
and tips) for Gateway International locations are:
Sydney, Australia $ 00
Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx $ 00
Xxxxx, Xxxxx $111
Yokohama, Japan $107
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia $ 00
Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx $ 49
Singapore $ 76
When submitting a meal expense for more than 1 person, the names of all
individuals, amounts of the meals and receipts must accompany the invoice,
TELEPHONE
Consultants should be sensitive to the costs associated with making personal
calls and try to limit the calls to less than 15 minutes per day while on
domestic or international business. When practical, phone calls should be made
from the Gateway location. Consultants should not use hotel room phones unless
necessary, as many hotels add a surcharge. Likewise, all business-related faxes
and photocopies should be made at Gateway's facility unless otherwise necessary.
SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION AND REIMBURSEMENT
Each consultant will provide Gateway with receipts for all reimbursable expenses
submitted for payment in accordance with this policy.
EXAMPLES OF ADDITIONAL REIMBURSABLE EXPENSES
o Air freight/Overnight delivery for business purposes
o Currency conversion fees
o Ground/Air transportation
o Laundry/dry cleaning for trips exceeding 7 days only
o Parking (with regard to airline flights, consultants should use
long-term parking at all airport locations for their personal

Purpose of Form: The products and/or software which Gateway is purchasing or may
purchase could be the subject of an import and/or export transaction. Certain
information is required in order for Gateway to be able to conduct such
transactions in the most efficient/cost effective manner possible and in full
compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.
Reliance: Gateway will be relying on the accuracy of the signed form. Therefore,
any temporary or permanent changes in the information provided must be
immediately communicated in writing to the appropriate Gateway contact.
Definitions:
Box #4 - Product Description: This box should include a general description of
what the item is, how it operates, important measures, and strength relative to
other similar products.
Box #6 - Country of Origin: Place where the article was manufactured (not the
place where the shipment originated). If the article has been processed in more
than one country, the country of origin is the last country in which the article
underwent a "substantial transformation." In other words, further work or
material added to an article in another country must effect a "substantial
transformation" in order to render such other country as the country of origin.
A substantial transformation occurs when articles lose their identity and become
new and different articles of commerce, having a new name, character or use.
Box #8 - HTS (Harmonized Tariff Schedule) Number: A 10 digit classification that
is used by the various Customs services to classify product for import/export on
a worldwide basis. Should you require assistance in determining the
classification for your product, you may access U.S. Custom's web site at
xxx.xxxxxxx.xxxxxxx.xxx, or contact your local Customs office or broker.
Box #9 - Export Control Classification Number ("ECCN"): A 5 digit classification
used to identity applicable export licensing requirements. NOTE: ECCN is not the
same as a HTS classification or a Schedule B classification. Within each ECCN a
given item will defined under a particular paragraph or subparagraph. For a
complete description of each ECCN's composition, see Section 738.2(c) of the
Export Administration Regulations (15 CFR Part 738). Should you require
assistance in determining the classification for your product, you may contact
the Bureau of Export Administration's Export Counseling Division at (202)
482-4811 or (000) 000-0000, or at "http//xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx".
Box #s 10 & 10A - Processor Type, Speed and CTP Rating in MTOPS: For purposes of
this field, "processor" means a monolithic integrated circuit or multi-chip
integrated circuit containing an arithmetic logic unit (ALU) capable of
executing a series of general purpose instructions from in external storage. It
normally does not contain user-accessible storage, although storage present
on-the-chip may be used in performing its logic function. The definition
includes chip sets that are designed to operate together to provide the function
of a processor.
Box #11 - U.S. Federal Communication Commission ("FCC") ID Number: The
manufacturer (or importer for an imported device) is required to ensure that the
measurements necessary to determine compliance with the technical standards are
performed. A copy of the measurement report showing compliance with FCC
standards must be retained by the manufacturer and, if requested, be submitted
to the Commission. U.S. importers are required to submit an FCC form with their
import shipments.
Box #12 - U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA")/Accession Number: Section
536(a) of the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of
1968) requires that all imported electronic products, for which applicable
radiation performance standards exist, shall comply with the standards and shall
bear certification of such compliance. U.S. importers are required to submit an
FDA form with their import shipments.
Box #13 - "Mass Market" Treatment: This treatment is available for software that
is generally available to the public by being: 1) sold from stock at retail
selling points, without restriction, by means of over the counter transactions,
mail order transactions, telephone call transactions, or Internet transactions;
and 2) designed for installation by the user without further substantial support
by the supplier (See 15 CFR Section 740.13). Note: "Mass market" treatment is
not available for encryption software unless the length of the encryption string
is 56 bits or less and the software has undergone a one time review by the U.S.
Department of Commerce (See 15 CFR Sections 742.15(b)(1), Supplement No. 6 to
Part 742 and 748.3(b)(3)).
Box #14 - Encryption Software: Computer programs that provide capability of
encryption/decryption functions or confidentiality of information or information
systems. Such software includes source code, object code, applications software,
or system software.
Box #16 - One Time Review by the U.S. Department of Commerce: Refer to 15 CFR
Section 742.15 and Supplement No. 6 to Part 742.
Box #21 - Packing Costs: This means the cost of all containers (exclusive of
international shipping containers) and coverings of whatever nature and of
packing used in placing merchandise in condition, packed ready for shipment.
Box #22 - Selling Commission: Any commission paid to an agent who is related to,
controlled by, or works for or on behalf of the manufacturer or seller.
Box #23 - Assist: An "assist" is a cost which must necessarily he incurred to
produce an imported article. Whenever Gateway as importer donates an item to the
manufacturer at no cost or token value, and that item is essential to the
production of the final article, it is usually an "assist" and is part of
dutiable value. The test for an assist is whether the final imported article
could not be produced by the manufacturer without the item provided. Any of the
following, if supplied by Gateway to the manufacturer free of charge or at a
reduced cost, would constitute an assist: 1) materials, components, parts, and
similar items incorporated in the imported merchandise.

FIRST AMENDMENT TO MASTER SOFTWARE
LICENSE AND SERVICES AGREEMENT
This FIRST AMENDMENT TO MASTER SOFTWARE LICENSE AND SERVICES AGREEMENT
("Amendment") is made by and between eSoft, Inc., with offices at 000
Xxxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxxxx. Colorado 80021("eSoft"), and
Gateway, Inc., with offices at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxxx, XX, 00000
("Gateway"). eSoft and Gateway are each referred to below as a "Party," and
collectively as the "Parties". This Amendment becomes effective on September 15,
2000 ("Effective Date").
RECITALS
A. Gateway develops and markets a wide variety of computer hardware and
software products and computer-related services in various market
segments.
B. eSoft provides a family of Linux-based Internet software, appliances and
services that enable small to medium-sized businesses to reliably connect
with and take advantage of the Internet.
C. The Parties entered into a Master Software License and Services Agreement
effective February 22, 2000 (the "Agreement").
D. The Parties entered into a Statement of Work pursuant to the Agreement on
or about April 12, 2000 (as subsequently amended by mutual agreement of
the Parties, the "Statement of Work").
E. The Parties now wish to set forth additional terms and conditions under
which Gateway and eSoft will perform their respective obligations under
the Agreement, as described in more detail below.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of and conditioned on the Recitals set
forth above and incorporated in this Agreement, the covenants stated herein, and
for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
the Parties hereby acknowledge, the Parties agree as follows:
1. PRODUCT LAUNCH. Subject to the Parties' respective compliance with the
product timelines and functionality set forth in the Statement of Work, Gateway
will introduce the products described in the Agreement and the Statement of Work
into the United States market on or before October 31, 2000.
2. PRODUCT COMMITMENT.
2.1 Subscriber Commitment. Subject to the provisions of this Section 2,
Gateway will register a cumulative total of [...***...] subscribers for a
bundled ISP/server program, or in the aggregate for all bundled ISP server
programs, implementing eSoft's software on Gateway's hardware (such as the
"Basic Package" referred to in Section 4.1.1 of the Statement of Work), or any
modifications, enhancements or alterations thereof) (the "Products") at market
prices [...***...]. Such subscribers will be registered by Gateway no later than
the dates set forth below:
***CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED
Date Gross Number of Subscribers
Registered to Date
[...***...] [...***...]
[...***...] [...***...]
[...***...] [...***...]
[...***...] [...***...]
[...***...] [...***...]
2.2 Pricing. Gateway shall have the ultimate discretion in setting the
price at which Gateway sells the Products to Gateway's subscribers.
2.3 Failure to Achieve Subscriber Commitment. If Gateway does not register
the required number of subscribers by the dates set forth above, Gateway shall
nonetheless be required to pay to eSoft [...***...] the [...***...] revenues
received by eSoft from actual Gateway subscribers for the Products (if any) and
the [...***...] revenues that eSoft would have received had Gateway met its
subscriber commitment until such time as Gateway [...***...] its subscriber
commitment. If Gateway achieves registration of the required number of
subscribers within a particular [...***...], the amount owed by Gateway will be
adjusted pro rata to the number of days in which Gateway did not have the
required number of subscribers. Amounts owing to eSoft pursuant to this Section
2.3 shall be paid by Gateway to eSoft on a quarterly basis in arrears. As part
of Gateway's quarterly report submitted to eSoft pursuant to Section 4.1 of the
Agreement, Gateway shall indicate whether it achieved registration of the
required number of subscribers (including the number of gross additions and
subscriber terminations during the quarterly period) and, if Gateway has not
achieved such registration, Gateway shall set forth its calculation of the
amounts owing to eSoft pursuant to this Section 2.3. Amounts owing by Gateway
pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be received by eSoft no later than
[...***...] following the end of each calendar quarter (e.g. no later than
[...***...]).
2.4 Gateway's Obligations in Registering Subscribers. The subscriber
commitments set forth in Section 2.1 require Gateway to register a cumulative
total number of subscribers by certain dates, and do not require Gateway to have
registered on a certain date a net number of subscribers. To protect eSoft
against arbitrary actions by Gateway that may have the effect of frustrating the
purpose of the subscriber commitments set forth in Section 2.1, until June 30,
2002, Gateway shall not take unilateral action to terminate the subscriptions of
registered subscribers other than for cause, such as the failure of a subscriber
to pay any subscription fees then payable to Gateway. A subscriber's non-renewal
of a subscription shall not be considered to be unilateral action by Gateway.
2.5 Limitation on Gateway's Obligations Relating to the Subscriber
Commitment. Gateway's obligations pursuant to this Section 2 shall be subject to
eSoft's compliance with its obligations under the Agreement (as modified by this
Amendment) and the Statement of Work, as well as eSoft's continued development
and enhancement of the Products.
2.6 License Fee. eSoft and Gateway acknowledge that the license fees set
forth in Exhibit A to the Agreement are subject to change based upon market
conditions. Any change to the license fees set forth in Exhibit A to the
Agreement shall be mutually agreed by eSoft and Gateway and shall take into
account [...***...] to Gateway and [...***...] to Gateway's subscribers of the
components that make up the subscription offering.
***CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED
3. MISCELLANEOUS.
3.1 Source Code Escrow Agreement. eSoft and Gateway shall enter into the
source code escrow agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, and
[...***...] shall pay [...***...] associated with such escrow.
3.2 Continuation of the Agreement. Except as amended hereby, the Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect.
3.3 Entire Agreement. This Amendment, together with the Agreement and the
Statement of Work, including attachments, constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and merges and
supersedes all prior and contemporaneous negotiations and agreements. Neither of
the parties shall be bound by any conditions, definitions, warranties,
understandings, or representations with respect to the subject matter hereof
other than as expressly provided herein. The section headings contained in this
Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the
meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. No oral explanation or oral
information by either party hereto shall alter the meaning or interpretation of
this Agreement. No modification or amendment to this Agreement, nor any waiver
of any rights, will be effective unless assented to in writing by both parties,
and the waiver of any breach or default will not constitute a waiver of any
other right hereunder or any subsequent breach or default.
3.4 Interpretation. This Amendment has been negotiated at arms length and
between persons sophisticated and knowledgeable in the matters dealt with in
this Amendment. Accordingly, any rule of law or legal decision that would
require interpretation of any ambiguities in this Agreement against the Party
that has drafted it is not applicable and is waived.
3.5 Severability. All rights and remedies, whether conferred hereunder or
by any other instrument or law, will be cumulative and may be exercised
singularly or concurrently. The failure of any Party to enforce any of the
provisions hereof will not be construed to be a waiver of the right of that
Party thereafter to enforce such provisions or any other provisions hereof. The
terms and conditions stated herein are declared to be severable. If any
provision or provisions of this Amendment will be held to be invalid, illegal,
or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining
provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
3.6 Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts,
each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which together will
constitute one and the same instrument.

agreement, development agreement, and/or other agreement regarding certain
proprietary technology of Depositor (referred to in this Agreement as "the
License Agreement").
B. Depositor desires to avoid disclosure of its proprietary technology except
under certain limited circumstances.
C. The availability of the proprietary technology of Depositor is critical to
Preferred Beneficiary in the conduct of its business and, therefore, Preferred
Beneficiary needs access to the proprietary technology under certain limited
circumstances.
D. Depositor and Preferred Beneficiary desire to establish an escrow with DSI to
provide for the retention, administration and controlled access of the
proprietary technology materials of Depositor.
E. The parties desire this Agreement to be supplementary to the License
Agreement pursuant to 00 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx [Bankruptcy] Code, Section 365(n).
ARTICLE 1 -- DEPOSITS
1.1 Obligation to Make Deposit. Upon the signing of this Agreement by the
parties, Depositor shall deliver to DSI the proprietary technology and other
materials ("Deposit Materials") required to be deposited by the License
Agreement or, if the License Agreement does not identify the materials to be
deposited with DSI, then such materials will be identified on an Exhibit A. If
Exhibit A is applicable, it is to be prepared and signed by Depositor and
Preferred Beneficiary. DSI shall have no obligation with respect to the
preparation, signing or delivery of Exhibit A.
1.2 Identification of Tangible Media. Prior to the delivery of the Deposit
Materials to DSI, Depositor shall conspicuously label for identification each
document, magnetic tape, disk, or other tangible media upon which the Deposit
Materials are written or stored. Additionally, Depositor shall complete Exhibit
B to this Agreement by listing each such tangible media by the item label
description, the type of media and the quantity. The Exhibit B must be signed by
Depositor and delivered to DSI with the Deposit Materials. Unless and until
Depositor makes the initial deposit with DSI, DSI shall have no obligation with
respect to this Agreement, except the obligation to notify the parties regarding
the status of the deposit account as required in Section 2.2 below.
1.3 Deposit Inspection. When DSI receives the Deposit Materials and the Exhibit
B, DSI will conduct a deposit inspection by visually matching the labeling of
the tangible media containing the Deposit Materials to the item descriptions and
quantity listed on the Exhibit B. In
addition to the deposit inspection, Preferred Beneficiary may elect to cause a
verification of the Deposit Materials in accordance with Section 1.6 below.
1.4 Acceptance of Deposit. At completion of the deposit inspection, if DSI
determines that the labeling of the tangible media matches the item descriptions
and quantity on Exhibit B, DSI will date and sign the Exhibit B and mail a copy
thereof to Depositor and Preferred Beneficiary. If DSI determines that the
labeling does not match the item descriptions or quantity on the Exhibit B, DSI
will (a) note the discrepancies in writing on the Exhibit B; (b) date and sign
the Exhibit B with the exceptions noted; and (c) mail a copy of the Exhibit B to
Depositor and Preferred Beneficiary. DSI's acceptance of the deposit occurs upon
the signing of the Exhibit B by DSI. Delivery of the signed Exhibit B to
Preferred Beneficiary is Preferred Beneficiary's notice that the Deposit
Materials have been received and accepted by DSI.
1.5 Depositor's Representations. Depositor represents as follows:
a. Depositor lawfully possesses all of the Deposit Materials deposited
with DSI;
b. With respect to all of the Deposit Materials, Depositor has the
right and authority to grant to DSI and Preferred Beneficiary the
rights as provided in this Agreement;
c. The Deposit Materials are not subject to any lien or other
encumbrance;
d. The Deposit Materials consist of the proprietary technology and
other materials identified either in the License Agreement or
Exhibit A, as the case may be; and
e. The Deposit Materials are readable and useable in their current form
or, if any portion of the Deposit Materials are encrypted, the
decryption tools and decryption keys have also been deposited.
1.6 Verification. Preferred Beneficiary shall have the right, at Preferred
Beneficiary's expense, to cause a verification of any Deposit Materials.
Preferred Beneficiary shall notify Depositor and DSI of Preferred Beneficiary's
request for verification. Depositor shall have the right to be present at the
verification. A verification determines, in different levels of detail, the
accuracy, completeness, sufficiency and quality of the Deposit Materials. If a
verification is elected after the Deposit Materials have been delivered to DSI,
then only DSI, or at DSI's election an independent person or company selected
and supervised by DSI, may perform the verification.
1.7 Deposit Updates. Unless otherwise provided by the License Agreement,
Depositor shall update the Deposit Materials within 60 days of each release of a
new version of the product which is subject to the License Agreement. Such
updates will be added to the existing deposit. All deposit updates shall be
listed on a new Exhibit B and the new Exhibit B shall be signed by Depositor.
Each Exhibit B will be held and maintained separately within the escrow account.
An independent record will be created which will document the activity for each
Exhibit B. The processing of all deposit updates shall be in accordance with
Sections 1.2 through 1.6 above. All references in this Agreement to the Deposit
Materials shall include the initial Deposit Materials and any updates.
Page 2
1.8 Removal of Deposit Materials. The Deposit Materials may be removed and/or
exchanged only on written instructions signed by Depositor and Preferred
Beneficiary, or as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

DSI shall not disclose the content of this Agreement to any third party. If DSI
receives a subpoena or other order of a court or other judicial tribunal
pertaining to the disclosure or release of the Deposit Materials, DSI will
immediately notify the parties to this Agreement unless prohibited by law. It
shall be the responsibility of Depositor and/or Preferred Beneficiary to
challenge any such order; provided, however, that DSI does not waive its rights
to present its position with respect to any such order. DSI will not be required
to disobey any court or other judicial tribunal order. (See Section 7.5 below
for notices of requested orders.)

secret, patent or other intellectual property rights.
3.2 Right to Make Copies. DSI shall have the right to make copies of the Deposit
Materials as reasonably necessary to perform this Agreement. DSI shall copy all
copyright, nondisclosure, and other proprietary notices and titles contained on
the Deposit Materials onto any copies made by DSI. With all Deposit Materials
submitted to DSI, Depositor shall provide any and all instructions as may be
necessary to duplicate the Deposit Materials including but not limited to the
hardware and/or software needed.
3.3 Right to Transfer Upon Release. Depositor hereby grants to DSI the right to
transfer the Deposit Materials to Preferred Beneficiary upon any release of the
Deposit Materials for use by Preferred Beneficiary in accordance with Section
4.5. Except upon such a release or as otherwise provided in this Agreement, DSI
shall not transfer the Deposit Materials.
ARTICLE 4 -- RELEASE OF DEPOSIT
Page 3
4.1 Release Conditions. As used in this Agreement, "Release Condition" shall
mean the following:
a. Depositor's failure to carry out obligations imposed on it pursuant
to the license agreement; or
b. Depositor's failure to continue to do business in the ordinary
course.
4.2 Filing For Release. If Preferred Beneficiary believes in good faith that a
Release Condition has occurred, Preferred Beneficiary may provide to DSI written
notice of the occurrence of the Release Condition and a request for the release
of the Deposit Materials. Upon receipt of such notice, DSI shall provide a copy
of the notice to Depositor by commercial express mail.
4.3 Contrary Instructions. From the date DSI mails the notice requesting release
of the Deposit Materials, Depositor shall have ten business days to deliver to
DSI contrary instructions. "Contrary Instructions" shall mean the written
representation by Depositor that a Release Condition has not occurred or has
been cured. Upon receipt of Contrary Instructions, DSI shall send a copy to
Preferred Beneficiary by commercial express mail. Additionally, DSI shall notify
both Depositor and Preferred Beneficiary that there is a dispute to be resolved
pursuant to the Dispute Resolution section (Section 7.3) of this Agreement.
Subject to Section 5.2, DSI will continue to store the Deposit Materials without
release pending (a) joint instructions from Depositor and Preferred Beneficiary;
(b) resolution pursuant to the Dispute Resolution provisions; or (c) order of a
court.
4.4 Release of Deposit. If DSI does not receive Contrary Instructions from the
Depositor, DSI is authorized to release the Deposit Materials to the Preferred
Beneficiary or, if more than one beneficiary is registered to the deposit, to
release a copy of the Deposit Materials to the Preferred Beneficiary. However,
DSI is entitled to receive any fees due DSI before making the release. Any
copying expense in excess of $300 will be chargeable to Preferred Beneficiary.
This Agreement will terminate upon the release of the Deposit Materials held by
DSI.
4.5 Right to Use Following Release. Unless otherwise provided in the License
Agreement, upon release of the Deposit Materials in accordance with this Article
4, Preferred Beneficiary shall have the right to use the Deposit Materials for
the sole purpose of continuing the benefits afforded to Preferred Beneficiary by
the License Agreement. Preferred Beneficiary shall be obligated to maintain the
confidentiality of the released Deposit Materials.
ARTICLE 5 -- TERM AND TERMINATION
5.1 Term of Agreement. The initial term of this Agreement is for a period of one
year. Thereafter, this Agreement shall automatically renew from year-to-year
unless (a) Depositor and Preferred Beneficiary jointly instruct DSI in writing
that the Agreement is terminated; or (b) the Agreement is terminated by DSI for
nonpayment in accordance with Section 5.2. If the Deposit Materials are subject

or document. DSI shall not be responsible for failure to act as a result of
causes beyond the reasonable control of DSI.

indemnify, defend and hold harmless DSI from any and all claims, actions,
damages, arbitration fees and expenses, costs, attorney's fees and other
liabilities ("Liabilities") incurred by DSI relating in any way to this escrow

accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to its

obligation, DSI be paid in full for any past due fees and be paid
for the reasonable value of the services to be rendered pursuant to
