provided by SELECTICA, the Software will perform substantially in accordance

of one hundred and eighty (180) days after delivery of the Software to the

noncompliance provided that: Customer notifies SELECTICA of the noncompliance
within (90) ninety days after delivery of the Software to the Customer, and
SELECTICA is able to reproduce the noncompliance as communicated by Customer to
SELECTICA. If after the expenditure of reasonable efforts, SELECTICA is unable
to correct any such noncompliance, SELECTICA shall refund to Customer all or an
equitable portion of the license fee paid by Customer to SELECTICA for such
Software in full satisfaction of Customer's claims relating to such
noncompliance upon Customer's return of said Software. ANY LIABILITY OF

SELECTICA'S OPINION, IMPRACTICAL, TO A REFUND OF THE LICENSE FEE.
7.2 WARRANTY LIMITATIONS. The warranties set forth in Section 7.1 apply

other restrictions, without the prior written consent of GEMS.

and any Dispute hereunder.
10.8 Arbitration.
(a) Any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with this
Agreement or the performance, breach, or termination thereof (a "Dispute"),
including claims seeking redress or asserting rights under applicable law, shall
be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth herein. Until completion

force a resolution of the Dispute by any judicial or similar process, except to
the limited extent necessary to; (i) avoid expiration of a claim that might
eventually be permitted hereby; or (ii) obtain interim relief to obtain interim

resolve the Dispute through good faith negotiation, either party may submit such

evaluation of the Dispute and the parties' relative positions. Each party shall
bear its own costs of mediation effort.
(e) After completion of any mediation effort, a party may submit the
Dispute for resolution by arbitration pursuant to the Non-Administered
Arbitration Rules of the Center for Public Resources as in effect on the
Effective Date, unless the parties agree to adopt such rules as in effect at the
time of the arbitration. The arbitral tribunal shall be composed of one
arbitrator having experience in enterprise software; and the arbitration shall
be conducted in New York City. If the answer to the Dispute is not found within
the terms of this Agreement, the arbitrator shall determine the Dispute in
accordance with the governing law of this Agreement, without giving effect to
any conflict of law rules or other rules that might render such law inapplicable
or unavailable. The prevailing party in any arbitration conducted under this
Section 10.8 shall be entitled to recover from the other party (as part of the
arbitral award or order) its reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs of
arbitration.
(f) The law applicable to the validity of this arbitration provision,
the conduct of the arbitration, the challenge to or enforcement of any arbitral
award or order or any other question of arbitration law or procedure shall be
governed exclusively by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. sections 1-16;
however, the award can be modified or vacated on grounds cited in the Federal
Arbitration Act or if the arbitrator's findings of facts are not supported by
substantial evidence or the conclusions of law are erroneous under the laws of
the State of New York. The parties agree that the federal and state courts
located in the State of New York shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any
action brought to enforce this arbitration provision, and each party irrevocably
submits to the jurisdiction of said courts. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, either party may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction,
wherever situated, for enforcement of any judgment on an arbitral award.
(g) Each party hereby consents to a single, consolidated arbitration
proceeding of multiple claims, or claims involving more than two parties. The
prevailing party or parties in any arbitration conducted under this paragraph
shall be entitled to recover from the other party or parties (as part of the
arbitral award or order) its or their reasonable attorneys' fees and other
reasonable costs of arbitration.
10.9 LANGUAGE. This Agreement is in the English language only, which
language shall be controlling in all respects, and all versions hereof in any
other language shall not be binding to the parties hereto. All communications
and notices to be made or given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in the
English language.
10.10 APPLICABILITY OF PROVISIONS LIMITING SELECTICA'S LIABILITY. The
provisions of this Agreement under which the liability of SELECTICA is excluded
or limited, shall not apply to the extent that such exclusions or limitations
are declared illegal or void under any applicable laws, unless the illegality or
invalidity is cured under such laws by the fact that the law of California
governs this Agreement.
10.11 FORCE MAJEURE. Neither party will be liable for, or be considered
to be in breach of or default under this Agreement, other than monetary

Customer.

between the parties, and no party shall be deemed to be the agent of the other
party.
11. SOURCE CODE ESCROW
Promptly after execution of this Agreement, SELECTICA will place in escrow
(pursuant to the terms of an Escrow Agreement) a copy of all source code and
related documentation as well as any other documentation, manuals, tools, or
other materials used by SELECTICA in the development, maintenance or support of
such Software ("Maintenance Materials") as they exist at the date of this
Agreement. If SELECTICA has ceased to do business in the normal course (the
"Conditions") and Customer has paid for all applicable source code escrow fees,
then Customer shall be entitled to receive from SELECTICA a copy of the
Maintenance Materials'. Upon the release of the Maintenance Materials to
Customer pursuant to this section, Customer shall have a nonexclusive,
non-sublicenseable license to use the foregoing to and only to support and
maintain such Software. Customer covenants that it will exercise such license
only for so long as

the Condition occurs and continues and that any violation of this covenant will
be a material breach of this Agreement. With respect to anything licensed to
SELECTICA from a third party, the foregoing right and licenses and SELECTICA's
obligation to provide or escrow Maintenance Materials are subject to the terms
and restrictions of SELECTICA's agreement with such third party and the payment
by Customer of any amounts that would not otherwise be due on account of this
Agreement. SELECTICA will update the escrow with any new or modified Maintenance
Materials at least annually.
In Witness whereof, the parties have executed this Agreement by their duly
authorized representatives.
