NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the obligations herein made and undertaken,
the parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
SECTION 1. SCOPE OF SERVICES
1.1 Consultant shall provide consulting services (the "Services") as set forth

- ESG Revision 2.4 dated October 12, 1999 (the "Proposal") and submitted
by Consultant to Intelligroup. Consultant shall render such services and
deliver the required reports and other deliverables ("Deliverables") in
accordance with the timetable and milestones set forth in Exhibit A and
the Proposal. In the event Consultant anticipates at any time that it will
not reach one or more milestones or complete one or more assignments
within the prescribed timetable, Consultant shall immediately so inform
Intelligroup by written notice, submit proposed revisions to the timetable
and milestones that reflect Consultant's best estimates of what can
realistically be achieved, and continue to work under the original
timetable and milestones until otherwise directed by Intelligroup.
Consultant shall also prepare and submit such further reports of its
performance and its progress as set forth in the Proposal and as
Intelligroup may reasonably request from time to time.
1.2 Consultant shall provide and make available to Intelligroup such resources
as shall be necessary to perform the Services called for by this
Agreement. Such resources shall include the key employees (Key employees)
named by the parties and listed in Exhibit B, as amended in writing by the
parties from time to time. If any such Key Employee leaves the employ of
Consultant during the term of this Agreement for any reason or is
unavailable to continue work at the specified level of commitment
(full-time, X number of hours/week, etc.) called for herein, and if
substitute individuals acceptable to Intelligroup are not available to
continue the work within 5 business days, Intelligroup shall have the
right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof.
1.3 Intelligroup shall, within 10 business days of receipt of each Deliverable
submitted to Intelligroup, advise Consultant of Intelligroup's acceptance
or rejection of such Deliverable. Any rejection shall specify the nature
and scope of the deficiencies in such Deliverable. Consultant shall, upon
receipt of such rejection, act diligently, but in no event later than 10
business days to correct such deficiencies.
1.4 All work shall be performed in a workmanlike and professional manner by
employees of Consultant having a level of skill and experience in the area
commensurate with the requirements of the scope of work to be performed.
Consultant shall make sure its employees at all times observe security and
safety policies of Intelligroup while on Intelligroup's site.
1.5 Intelligroup and Consultant shall develop appropriate administrative
procedures to apply to Consultant's personnel. Intelligroup shall
periodically prepare an evaluation of the performance of Consultant's
personnel.
1.6 Intelligroup may interview the Consultant's personnel assigned to

request removal of any employee(s) of Consultant whom Intelligroup deems
to be unsatisfactory. Upon such request, Consultant shall use its best
efforts to promptly replace such employee(s) with substitute employee(s)
having appropriate skills and training within two business days.
1.7 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the parties hereby
acknowledge and agree that Intelligroup shall have no right to control the
manner, means, or method by which Consultant performs the Services called
for by this Agreement. Rather, Intelligroup shall be entitled only to
direct Consultant with respect to the elements of Services to be performed
by Consultant and the results to be derived by Intelligroup, to inform
Consultant as to where and when such Services shall be performed, and to
review and assess the performance of such Services by Consultant for the
limited purposes of assuring that such Services have been performed and
confirming that such results were satisfactory.

2.1 This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date, and unless modified
by mutual agreement of the parties or terminated earlier pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement, shall continue until the satisfactory completion
of the Services.
2.2 This Agreement may be terminated by either party upon sixty (60) business
days' prior written notice, if the other party breaches any term hereof
and the breaching party fails to cure such breach within such sixty (60)
business day period.
2.3 This Agreement may be terminated by Intelligroup at its discretion upon
thirty (30) business days' prior written notice.

hereto, and the transfer of all items and Work Product (defined below),
tangible and intangible, as may be necessary for the orderly,
non-disrupted business continuation of Consultant; and shall promptly
deliver to Intelligroup, upon the expiration or termination of all or part
of the Services, complete and correct copies of all Work Product
(including any related source code) in the form and on the media in use as

health or disability insurance, retirement benefits, or other welfare or
pension benefits (if any) to which such personnel may be entitled.
