programs, displays, methodologies, financial affairs, business activities
and plans communicated to or received by the receiving Party will be
treated as confidential information ("Confidential Information") and all
confidentiality notices contained on such "Confidential Information" shall

disclosing Party, (2) is independently developed by the receiving Party
without reliance on Confidential Information, (3) is or becomes publicly
available without a breach of this Agreement by the receiving Party, (4) is
disclosed to the receiving Party by a third person who is not required to
maintain its confidentiality, or (5) is required to be disclosed by reason
of legal, accounting or regulatory requirements beyond the reasonable
control of the receiving Party. The receiving Party has the burden of
proving the applicability of the foregoing exceptions.
(b) Each receiving Party will use at least the same degree of care, but no
less than a reasonable degree of care, to avoid unauthorized disclosure or
use of each disclosing Party's Confidential Information as it employs with
respect to its own Confidential Information of similar importance.
(c) Each receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information only to the
other Party to this Agreement and its own officers, directors, and
employees and to its consultants, subcontractors and advisors who
reasonably need to know it. Each receiving Party will be responsible to the
disclosing Party for any violation of this Agreement by its officers,
directors, employees, consultants, subcontractors or advisors.
(d) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, no receiving Party may
print, copy or reproduce in anyway, in whole or in part, any documents or
other media containing a disclosing Party's Confidential Information, other
than copies for its officers, directors, employees, consultants or advisors
who are working on the matter, without the prior written consent of the
disclosing Party.
(e) A receiving Party may not use a disclosing Party's Confidential
Information for any purpose not in furtherance of this Agreement, except
with the disclosing Party's prior written authorization.
(f) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, promptly after the
earlier of the completion of a receiving Party's obligations under, or the
termination of, this Agreement, such receiving Party will return or, with
the consent of the disclosing Party, destroy all of the disclosing Party's
Confidential Information, except for (i) archive and backup copies that are
not readily accessible for use, and (ii) business records required by law
to be retained by the receiving Party.
(g) If a receiving Party is requested, as part of an administrative or
judicial proceeding, to disclose any of a disclosing Party's Confidential
Information, the receiving Party will, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, promptly notify the disclosing Party of such request and
cooperate with the disclosing Party, at the disclosing Party's expense, in
seeking a protective order or similar confidential treatment for such
Confidential Information.

(h) Each receiving Party agrees that in the event of a breach or
threatened breach by a disclosing Party, or any officer, director,
consultant, subcontractor, advisor or employee of such disclosing Party, of
the provisions of this Article, the disclosing Party will have no adequate
remedy in money damages and, accordingly, will be entitled to seek an
injunction against such breach, in addition to any other legal or equitable
remedies available to the disclosing Party.

----------------
Universal Application that are directly competitive, including in function and
target market, with any (i) existing TenFold products, (ii) TenFold products
under development that are described on Schedule 6.6, or (iii) any new TenFold
products unless Xxxxx Systems already has a competing product under development
at the time TenFold notifies Xxxxx Systems of a new product. If Xxxxx Systems
has a competing product under development, the Parties shall be free to compete
with their respective product offerings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Xxxxx
Systems shall be entitled to develop independent solutions for its customers
that include similar functionality to a TenFold product if the TenFold product
does not, in Xxxxx Systems' or its customer's determination, meet the customer's
requirements. Xxxxx Systems' use of elements from prior development projects
shall not be deemed to be products for purposes of this section.
Article 7
Dispute Resolution
7.1 General. Any dispute between the parties to this Agreement, either with
-------
respect to the interpretation of any terms of this Agreement or with respect to
the performance by a Party of its obligations under this Agreement, will be
resolved as provided in this Article 7. The parties will diligently seek to
resolve all disputes pursuant to Section 7.2, without resort to the more formal
proceedings described in Sections 7.3 and 7.4.
7.2 Management Meetings. If any continuing dispute between the parties is not
-------------------
resolved after reasonable attempts to resolve such dispute are made by either
Party, then, prior to initiating arbitration or litigation under this Agreement,
upon request of either Party, each Party will appoint a senior manager who does
not spend most of his or her time directly involved in performance of this
Agreement to meet with the other Party's designee to endeavor to resolve such
dispute. These senior managers will meet as often as they deem appropriate and
will negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute without the necessity of any
formal proceeding. During the course of such negotiations, all reasonable
requests made by one Party to the other for information will be honored. Both
parties agree to continue performing their respective obligations under this
Agreement while the dispute is being resolved, except to the extent that such
obligations are in dispute, unless and until this Agreement expires or is
terminated in accordance with its terms. Each party shall be responsible for its
own costs and expenses, including attorney's fees, associated with these
meetings.
7.3 Arbitration. Any dispute that is not resolved through negotiation pursuant
-----------
to Section 7.2 will be settled exclusively by final and binding arbitration in
accordance with the following:
[XXXXX] CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED
OMITTED PORTIONS FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
14
(a) American Arbitration Association Rules. Except as specified below or
--------------------------------------
otherwise agreed in writing, the arbitration will be conducted in
accordance with the then-current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the
American Arbitration Association.
(b) Demands and Counterclaims. Any demand for arbitration or any
-------------------------
counterclaim will specify in reasonable detail the facts and legal grounds
forming the basis for the claimant's request for relief, and will include a
statement of the total amount of damages claimed, if any, and any other
remedy sought by the claimant.
(c) Panel and Location. The arbitration will be conducted by an
------------------
arbitration panel consisting of a single neutral arbitrator selected in
accordance with those Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration
proceedings will take place in Wilmington, Delaware.
(d) Panel Actions. The arbitration panel may render awards of monetary
-------------
damages, direction to take or refrain from taking action, or both.
However, the arbitration panel may not award monetary damages in excess of
the damages allowed pursuant to Article 8. The arbitration panel may, at
its discretion, require any Party to the arbitration to reimburse any other
Party to the arbitration for all or any part of the expenses of the
arbitration paid by the other Party and the attorneys' fees and other
expenses reasonably incurred by the other Party in connection with the
arbitration. Judgment upon the award rendered in the arbitration may be
entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
7.4 Limited Exceptions for Litigation.
---------------------------------
(a) The parties agree that the provisions of Sections 7.2 and 7.3 will not
apply when a Party makes a reasonable determination in good faith that a
breach of the terms of this Agreement by the other Party is such that the
damages to the determining Party resulting from the breach will be so
immediate, so large or severe, and so incapable of adequate redress after
the fact that a temporary restraining order or other immediate injunctive
relief is the most appropriate remedy, and that Party seeks such relief.
(b) This Article 7 will not be construed to prevent a Party from
instituting, and a Party is authorized to institute, litigation solely and
exclusively (i) to toll the expiration of any applicable limitations
period; (ii) to preserve a superior position with respect to other
creditors in a bankruptcy proceeding; (iii) to seek immediate injunctive
relief with respect to an infringement or alleged infringement of such
Party's intellectual property rights; (iv) to enforce an arbitration award
under Section 7.3; or (v) as permitted under Section 7.4(a). Subject to the
foregoing, this Article 7 will provide the exclusive procedure for
resolving disputes under this Agreement.
(c) Any litigation under this Agreement will be brought in a state or
federal court sitting in Wilmington, Delaware.

8.5 Force Majeure. Each Party will be excused from the performance of its
-------------
obligations under this Agreement for any period and to the extent that such
performance is prevented, in whole or in part, as a result of delays caused by
the other Party or any act of God, civil disturbance, court order, labor
dispute, or other cause beyond its reasonable control, and such nonperformance
will not be a default hereunder or grounds for termination hereof.
8.6 Mitigation. Each Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to

architecture that reduces design effort and automates and accelerates
applications development and testing. The Universal Application lets
TenFold begin applications development projects having pre- built
significant functionality and having already solved many complex
applications design and implementation problems. Applications
developers spend time describing business requirements and desired
functionality-not programming.
2. ComponentWare
. TenFold ComponentWare is a library of components, reusable across
multiple applications and industries, that lets TenFold add complex,
business-specific functionality to an application and virtually
eliminate applications-specific programming. TenFold ComponentWare
includes capabilities such as billing, scoring, and workflow, as well
as integration engines. Each component contains features to serve many
different types of applications, across multiple vertical industries.
Schedule 1.1A describes TenFold ComponentWare completed or under
development.

4. TenFold Way Methodology
. The TenFold Way is a start-to-finish approach to working closely with
TenFold customers to design, develop, test, deliver, and evolve custom
applications. TenFold uses the TenFold Way to identify requirements in
four to eight weeks, and typically deliver the complete, fully tested
application in four to eight months. The TenFold Way organizes a
project into phases, each with well-defined activities and
deliverables. The TenFold Way combines continuous communication and
customer feedback with rapid, iterative development to keep projects on
target.
