addressing problems forwarded to IMNET by Distributor's support
personnel. IMNET shall provide technical bulletins, updated user guides
and other materials as they are released by IMNET, as well as any

copies shall be provided at IMNET's cost.

Distributor where such lead was not in IMNET's existing sales database,
IMNET shall pay Distributor a referral fee of 10% of the Software
license fee of the IMNET Software within 30 days of IMNET's receipt of
the first Software payment from the IMNET customer.
b) For each sale by Distributor of the IMNET Software under a
Distributor contract, the revenue from the IMNET Software sale shall be
split such that Distributor receives 25% of the license fee, and IMNET
shall receive 75%. IMNET shall be reimbursed on a prorata basis based
on Customer contract milestones within 30 days of said milestones;
however, the IMNET share shall be received
in full no later than shipment of the IMNET Software to the Customer.
c) Fees for providing Software maintenance services to Customers
shall be fixed at 15% of the List Prices for Software listed in the
IMNET Price Reference Guide current at the time of billing. IMNET

via facsimile to Distributor of any such changes. Customer orders or
Distributor quotations for Software to be delivered within ninety (90)
days after the date of any announced price increase will be honored by
IMNET at the previously prevailing prices.
d) Distributor agrees to pay IMNET a portion of maintenance fees
received for Software from Customers under Distributor's Customer
contracts. Until the parties agree that Distributor is adequately
trained to fulfill its maintenance obligations described above, IMNET
shall receive 100% of the maintenance fees due for Software. At that
time and annually thereafter, the parties shall establish, in good
faith, the percentages due each party, taking into account the level of
each party's effort and ability in providing Customer support services.
Maintenance fees due IMNET shall be paid in full prior to the
initiation of maintenance services.
e) Distributor shall pay all taxes and duties associated with the
sale by Distributor of any services and licensing of Software, except
for those taxes based on IMNET's net income.
f) Distributor shall remit fees due IMNET within 30 days of said
fees being due IMNET, along with documentation setting forth the amount
due to IMNET for Software and Software Maintenance, as well as the
Software's location, and any other pertinent information as mutually
agreed upon by the parties.
Page 5

g) IMNET reserves the right to refuse to provide maintenance and
support services to Customers when amounts due to IMNET remain unpaid
after thirty (30) days from the date due. IMNET agrees to reinstate
maintenance services promptly upon payment of all past due and current
charges.
h) Distributor shall pay a late charge of 1% per month on all
amounts due IMNET and not paid by the due date. All amounts due shall
be invoiced and paid in U.S. dollars.
i) The provisions of this Section shall survive termination of
this Agreement for any reason.
9. ORDERS.
Distributor will promptly advise IMNET of Distributor's receipt of an
order for Software, including a copy of the relevant portions of any
such Customer agreement. Any such notice shall be subject to
acceptance by IMNET and the terms and conditions of this Agreement
shall prevail not withstanding any variations or additions contained
in any form submitted by Distributor or Distributor's Customer.
10. LICENSE RIGHTS.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, IMNET grants to
Distributor a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to market and to
distribute the Software described on Exhibit A. Except as set forth
herein, Distributor shall not provide or otherwise make available the
Software or any part or copies thereof to any third party. Under no
circumstances may Distributor reverse engineer, disassemble or
decompile, in whole or in part, any Software. Distributor acknowledges
that the Software is the sole property of IMNET and that Distributor
has no rights in the Software except those expressly granted in this
Agreement.
11. WARRANTY.
a) IMNET warrants that it owns all right, title, and interest in
the Software or otherwise has the right to grant the rights granted by
it to Distributor hereunder, and that the grant of rights by IMNET does
not infringe upon the rights of any third party arising from any
omission from IMNET.
b) IMNET warrants that the Software will conform in all material
respects to the applicable documentation in effect at the time of
delivery for a period of ninety (90) days from Acceptance by
Distributor or Customer. During the warranty period, IMNET's sole
responsibility and liability hereunder shall be to use reasonable
efforts to remedy any such reproducible non- conformance which is
reported to IMNET in writing or by electronic mail. IMNET will advise
Distributor as to when any such reported problem can be fixed and
released to Distributor. IMNET does not warrant that the use of the
Software will be uninterrupted or error free. Except as set forth
above, the Software is licensed "AS IS". This Warranty does not apply
to Software that has been modified by Distributor or any other third
party; or, if the Software is
Page 6
7
operated on equipment and/or with third party operating systems that do
not meet IMNET specifications.
12. WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS.
a) To the extent permitted IMNET will pass through to Distributor
or Customers all available end-user warranties obtained from other
manufacturers of IMNET supplied products. Distributor and Customers
will look only to such manufacturers should they require warranty
service under such warranties.
b) EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, IMNET MAKES NO
WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO ANY SOFTWARE,
AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
a) Except as otherwise expressly provided within, IMNET shall not
be liable for any loss or damage claimed to result from use, operation,
or performance of the Software regardless of the form of action, except
for the portion of loss or damage caused by the sole gross negligence
of IMNET. In no event shall IMNET or its third party suppliers be
liable to Distributor or Distributor's Customers for any special,
indirect, incidental, or consequential damages; any damages resulting
from loss of use, data or profits; or any claim, whether in contract or
tort, regardless of whether IMNET knew or should have known of the
possibility of such damages.
b) IMNET's maximum liability hereunder is expressly limited to
any amounts paid under this Agreement by Distributor to IMNET within
the twelve (12) month period (or fraction thereof) immediately
preceding the Software malfunction or other cause allegedly giving rise
to the claim, even if the remedies provided herein are deemed to have
failed in their essential purpose. This limitation shall not apply to
any claim arising under Section
c) The provisions of this Section shall survive termination of
this Agreement for any reason.
14. INDEMNIFICATION.
a) IMNET shall defend and indemnify Distributor against any claim
that the distribution of any Software furnished and used within the
scope of this Agreement constitutes an infringement of any patent or
copyright registered in the United States, provided that (i) IMNET is
promptly notified by Distributor of the action, (ii) IMNET has sole
control of the defense and all settlement negotiations, and (iii)
Distributor provides reasonable assistance, information, and authority
necessary to perform the above, with reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by Distributor in providing such assistance being reimbursed
by IMNET. IMNET may, at any time it is concerned over the possibility
Page 7
8
of such infringement, at its option and expense, procure for
Distributor the right to continue distribution of the affected
Software, replace or modify the Software so that the possible
infringement will not exist, or remove the Software involved and
terminate this Agreement with respect to said Software.
b) The foregoing states the entire obligation of IMNET with
regards to its liability for patent, copyright, or trade secret
infringement, and the provisions of this Section shall survive the
termination of this Agreement for any reason.
15. TRADEMARKS AND TRADENAMES.
During the term of this Agreement, Distributor is authorized to use the
phrase "Authorized IMNET Distributor" in connection with the sale,
advertisement, and promotion of Software. Nothing herein shall
give Distributor or Customers of Distributor any interest or license
in such phrase beyond that specifically granted herein. Distributor
specifically agrees that in the event that Distributor "private
labels" the Software, Distributor will display the IMNET Image Engine
Logo on publications, including brochures, sales literature,
documentation and training materials. Usage specifications, together
with reproduction masters in film and/or magnetic form, will be
supplied to Distributor by IMNET upon request. Any such authorization
to use IMNET's trademarks and/or logos shall terminate when this
Agreement is terminated.
16. CONFIDENTIALITY.
a) IMNET and Distributor agree that all proprietary information
in whatever form delivered by one party to the other shall be held in
strict confidence and shall be used only for purposes of this
Agreement. No such information, including the provisions of this
Agreement, shall be disclosed by the recipient party, its agents or
employees without the prior written consent of the other party, except
as may be necessary by reason of legal, accounting or regulatory
requirements beyond the reasonable control of the recipient party. The
provisions of this Section shall survive termination of this Agreement
for any reason.
b) Distributor acknowledges that its close association with IMNET
has provided it with information that would otherwise be unavailable to
a competitor of IMNET. Therefore, Distributor agrees that in addition
to any other obligations it may have with regards to maintaining the
confidentiality of any such information, Distributor will not use any
such information to make any negative or disparaging comments or
comparisons of any of Distributor's future products with the Software.
The provisions of this Section shall survive termination of this
Agreement for any reason.
17. SOURCE CODE ESCROW.
a) Upon the licensing of the Software to a Customer, IMNET agrees
to establish an escrow account with Fort Xxxx Escrow Services, Inc.
(the "Escrow Agent"). IMNET shall deposit into the Escrow Account the
source code for the Software under the terms of the Escrow Agent's
standard Escrow Agreement. If Distributor obtains access to the source
code of the Software pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement,
Distributor
Page 8
9
shall use the source code solely for the support of Customers and said
source code shall be subject to the restrictions on use, transfer,
sales and reproduction placed on the Software itself by this Agreement.
b) Provided that the Distributor is not then in default under the
terms of this Agreement or the Escrow Agreement and subject to the
provisions set forth below and in the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow
Agent shall provide to the Distributor one complete copy of the source
code upon occurrence of any one or more of the following events:
i) IMNET ceases, for any reason, to do business (other
than the sale of its business to a party which assumes IMNET's
obligations hereunder); or
ii) Provided that IMNET is obligated to provide
maintenance services for the Software to Customer(s) under
this Agreement or any other agreement between Customer(s) and
IMNET, the failure by IMNET, following not less that 90 days
written notice from Customer clearly indicating the alleged
default, to maintain the Software and such failure
substantially impairs Customer's ability to operate and use
the Software in accordance with IMNET's documentation.
c) In the event that the parties do not agree as to the
occurrence of one of the above events, the parties hereby agree no such
occurrence shall be deemed to have occurred unless and until the
Arbitrator has found, after hearing as to the facts, that such
occurrence has taken place.
d) If any of the escrowed materials which may be provided to
Distributor pursuant to this Section and the Escrow Agreement contains
third-party software (e.g., compilers, utilities) used to prepare
machine-readable copies of the Software, Distributor shall be
responsible for obtaining any required licenses from the third-party
licensors for the use of such software.
e) It is expressly understood that this Section pertains to the
right to use the Software and that no rights to ownership of the source
code shall pass from IMNET to Distributor, unless expressly agreed upon
herein in writing. It is also expressly understood that this source
code is the confidential and secret asset of IMNET and the source code
will be secured by Distributor and not reproduced or copied, or be made
available to any other party. It is also expressly understood that the
source code will either be returned to IMNET or destroyed once the
default which gave Distributor access to the source code is removed.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS THE SOURCE CODE TO BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, OR
COPIED BY DISTRIBUTOR.
18. DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
a) Informal Resolution. If a dispute arises hereunder, then IMNET
and Distributor each agree that, prior to commencing arbitration or
termination of this Agreement, each party will cause the dispute to be
brought to the attention of its respective Chief Executive Officer (or
their respective designees). The Chief Executive Officers or designees
shall
Page 9
10
make a good faith effort to resolve the dispute or issue between the
parties and shall consider using non-binding mediators to address the
dispute if they are unable to resolve it.
b) Formal Resolution.
i) Arbitration. All disputes, controversies, claims,
etc. in connection with this Agreement or any breach thereof
shall be finally settled by arbitration in Atlanta, Georgia,

American Arbitration Association. Either party may give
notice, in accordance with this Agreement, of its intention to
submit such dispute, etc. to arbitration, which shall take
place before a single arbitrator experienced in the software
industry and appointed by the American Arbitration Association
in accordance with the Rules (the "Arbitrator"). Each party to
the arbitration is to pay an equal part of all costs,
including any deposits, associated with the arbitration,
except that each party shall be responsible for its own
attorneys' fees.
ii) Final and Binding Determination. The determinations
of the Arbitrator will be final and binding upon the parties
to the arbitration, and judgment upon the award rendered by
the Arbitrator may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction, or application may be made to such court for a
judicial acceptance of the award and an order of enforcement,
as the case may be. The Arbitrator shall set forth with
specificity the grounds for the decision in the award.

advertising party or otherwise circumvent the advertising party's
obligations hereunder.
