to this Agreement, Corage shall prepare and deliver to DSPGL its good faith
estimate of the types and quantities of R&D Services that Corage will
require during the next succeeding calendar quarter, and including, to the
extent reasonably practicable, the scope of the R&D Services and any
required standards, milestones and deadlines. Each quarterly estimate is
referred to in this Agreement as a "Quarterly R&D Forecast." DSPGL
acknowledges that it has received from Corage the first Quarterly R&D
Forecast. Upon Corage's submission of each Quarterly R&D Forecast, DSPGL and
Corage shall cause their respective technical personnel to coordinate with
respect to the performance of the R&D Services ordered thereby.
(b) Each Quarterly R&D Forecast shall constitute a binding purchase
order for the R&D Services specified therein for the calendar quarter (or

(c) During any period during the term of this Agreement, DSPGL shall be
obligated to provide the engineering personnel and facilities necessary to

"Commitment Level"), and shall be obligated to provide ordered R&D Services
in excess of the Commitment Level only if and to the extent mutually agreed
upon by the Parties in writing. Subject to the foregoing, DSPGL shall
perform R&D Services of the quantity, scope and types, and within the time
frames, ordered by Corage in accordance with Section 2.2(b).

order for such R&D Services in reasonable detail, including the scope of the
R&D Services and all required standards, specifications, milestones and
deadlines (each an "R&D Purchase Order"). DSPGL shall accept or reject the

Purchase Order is accepted, DSPGL and Corage shall cause their respective
technical personnel to coordinate with respect to the performance of the R&D
Services ordered thereby.
(e) DSPGL shall perform all R&D Services in accordance with the
applicable Quarterly R&D Forecasts and accepted R&D Purchase Orders, in a

qualified companies in Israel.

Services, MIS Services or Fleet Manager Services of scope greater than the
equivalent services it provides for its own operations as of the Effective
Date. At any time upon at least thirty days' advance written notice to

Corage shall pay to DSPGL an amount equal to (i) its pro rata share of
Aggregate Shared MIS Expense during such period, plus five percent of such
pro rata share, plus (ii) DSPGL's actual direct cost and expense of
providing any MIS Services requested by Corage solely for its own benefit,
plus five percent of such actual direct cost. For purposes of this Section,
Corage's pro rata share for any period shall be equal to a fraction (i) the
numerator of which is the aggregate number of full time (or full time
equivalent) employees of Corage, as of the last day of that period, with
respect to which MIS Services are provided generally, and (ii) the
denominator of which is the aggregate number of full time (or full time
equivalent) employees in clause (i) plus the aggregate number of full time
(or full time equivalent) employees of DSPGL, as of the last day of that
period, with respect to which MIS Services are provided generally.

share for any period shall be equal to a fraction (i) the numerator of which
is the aggregate number of full time (or full time equivalent) employees of

is the aggregate number of full time (or full time equivalent) employees in
clause (i) plus the aggregate number of full time (or full time equivalent)
employees of DSPGL, as of the last day of that period.
(e) Upon the request of Corage, DSPGL shall provide Corage with
migration assistance and data as reasonably requested from time to time by
Corage in order to enable Corage to provide its own MIS services. Such
migration assistance services shall not be considered MIS Services for
purposes of this Agreement and shall be agreed to between DSPGL and Corage
in advance of the provision of any such services. Corage shall compensate
DSPGL for such migration assistance services rendered by DSPGL at the
then-prevailing market rates for similar services provided by similarly

affect the Parties' respective intellectual property rights.

interests arising hereunder); or

with its delivery instructions. Neither Party shall have any liability to other

constitute full authorization to the postal authorities, all telegraph and

Agreement shall not exceed the total amount paid by Corage under this

it does so. IN NO EVENT WILL ANY PARTY BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER FOR INDIRECT,
CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF
PROFITS OR DAMAGE TO OR LOSS OF USE OF ANY PROPERTY.
ARTICLE VIII
FORCE MAJEURE
DSPGL shall be excused for failure to provide the Services to the extent
that such failure is directly or indirectly caused by an occurrence commonly
known as "force majeure," including, without limitation, delays arising out of
acts of God, acts or orders of a government agency or instrumentality thereof,
acts of public enemy, riots, embargoes, strikes or other concerted acts of
workmen, casualties or accidents, deliveries of materials, transportation or
shortage of cars, trucks, fuel, power, labor or materials, or any other causes,
circumstances or contingencies within or without the United States of America,

operating to excuse the performance by DSPGL, this Agreement shall continue in
full force for the remainder of its term and any extensions thereof.

ARTICLE IX
CONFIDENTIALITY
Section 9.1 Disclosure Limitation. Each Party shall maintain in confidence
all Confidential Information (oral or written), shall use such Confidential
Information only as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, and shall not
disclose any such Confidential Information to a third party except as expressly
permitted hereunder or make any unauthorized use thereof. Each Party shall
treat such Confidential Information with the same degree of care against
disclosure or unauthorized use which it affords to its own information of a
similar nature, or a reasonable degree of care, whichever is greater.
Section 9.2 Required Actions. In furtherance, and not in limitation, of
the foregoing, each Party agrees to do the following with respect to all such
Confidential Information of the other Party: (i) instruct and require all of
its Representatives to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential
Information and not to use such Confidential Information except as expressly
permitted herein; and (ii) restrict disclosure of such Confidential Information
to those of its Representatives who have a "need to know" consistent with the
purposes for which such Confidential Information was disclosed. Each Party
further agrees not to remove or destroy any proprietary or confidential legends
or markings placed upon any documentation or other materials.
Section 9.3 Permitted Disclosures. Notwithstanding Section 9.1, each Party
may disclose the other Party's Confidential Information in the following
circumstances:
(a) As reasonably necessary and appropriate to provide the Services or
receive the benefit of the Services.
(b) In the event that a Party is requested or required (by the
disclosure requirements of any rule, regulation, or form of any Governmental
Authority or by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or
documents by any Governmental Authority or other person in legal
proceedings, subpoenas, civil investigative demands, or other similar
processes) to disclose any of the Confidential Information received from a
Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party so requested or required shall provide
the Disclosing Party with prompt written notice of any such request or
requirement so that the Disclosing Party may object to production, seek a
protective order or other appropriate remedy, and/or waive compliance with
the provisions of this Agreement. The Receiving Party shall exercise its
best efforts (at the sole expense of the Disclosing Party) to preserve the
confidentiality of such Confidential Information, including, without
limitation, by cooperating with the Disclosing Party to obtain an
appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential
treatment will be accorded such Confidential Information. If, in the absence
of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver from the
Disclosing Party, such Receiving Party is nonetheless legally compelled to
disclose such Confidential Information to any tribunal or else stand liable
for contempt or suffer other censure or significant penalty, such Receiving
Party may, without liability hereunder, disclose to such tribunal only that
portion of the Confidential Information which is legally required to be
disclosed.
