NOR THEIR SUPPLIERS SHALL BE LIABLE OR OBLIGATED
Tioga Systems, Inc. Page A-13
Proprietary and Confidential
WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT OR UNDER CONTRACT,
NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY (I) FOR ANY
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, FOR
ANY COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS, TECHNOLOGY, SERVICES OR RIGHTS);
(II) FOR INTERRUPTION OF USE OR LOSS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA; OR (III) FOR ANY

LIABILITY TO OEM BASED ON INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT INDEMNITY UNDER
SECTION 12.1 EXCEED FIVE MILLION DOLLARS ($5,000,000); PROVIDED HOWEVER THAT IF
TIOGA PROVIDES A HIGHER LIMITATION ON LIABILITY FOR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

SHALL BE INCREASED TO THE LESSER OF SUCH HIGHER LIMITATION AND TEN MILLION
DOLLARS ($10,000,000). NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING SENTENCE, THE FOREGOING

SECTION 12. INDEMNIFICATION
---------------
12.1. By Tioga. Tioga shall indemnify and hold harmless OEM against all
--------
damages, costs, expenses, and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys' fees
and expenses) (collectively, "Damages") arising out of any claim of infringement
-------
of a copyright or a patent claim or trademark or misappropriation of a trade
secret is asserted against OEM by a third party based upon OEM's exercise of its
rights in full compliance with this Agreement including OEM's use, in full
compliance with this Agreement, of Tioga's trademarks in the promotion or
marketing of the Products; provided, that, in each case, Tioga shall have (x)
received from OEM written notice of said claim as soon as practicable after the
assertion thereof, provided however that if there is a delay in providing such
notice that materially and adversely prejudices the defense of such claim Tioga
shall be released from the indemnification obligations set forth in this Section
12.1. ; (y) have received from OEM the exclusive right to control and direct the
investigation, defense, or settlement of such claims; and (z) received the
complete cooperation and assistance of OEM so long as Tioga reimburses OEM's
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. Tioga may not settle any such claim in a
manner that would restrict OEM's exercise of the rights granted to OEM hereunder
without OEM's written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld. In the
event Tioga reasonably believes that any Product infringes a third party
Intellectual Property right, Tioga may either: (1) substitute for such Product
substantially similar programs and documentation, (2) procure for OEM the right
to continue using such Product or, if Tioga fails after commercially reasonable
efforts to accomplish options (1) and (2) above,(3) terminate this Agreement
upon thirty (30) days advance written notice and refund the license fees paid
for the Product that is the subject of the claim less depreciation as calculated
on a three-year straight-line basis commencing as of the Effective Date and
subject to the limitations set forth in Section 11 of this Agreement. This
Section 12.1 sets forth OEM's sole and
Tioga Systems, Inc. Page A-14
Proprietary and Confidential
exclusive remedy with respect to any claim of Intellectual Property
infringement. The foregoing obligations of Tioga do not apply (A) with respect
to a Product which is modified after shipment by any party other than Tioga, if
the alleged infringement relates to such modification, if the unmodified Product
would not have given rise to the infringement, (B) with respect to Product that
was combined with any non-Tioga products, processes or materials where the
alleged infringement relates to such combination if the Product alone would not
have given rise to the infringement, (C) where the allegedly infringing activity
continues after Tioga has informed OEM of modifications that would have avoided
the alleged infringement and OEM has not complied with its obligations under
Section 3.3 of this Agreement or (D) with respect to infringement based on use
of a version other than the then current version (so long as OEM has had a
reasonable amount of time, not more than thirty (30) days to receive and
implement the then current version) of the Product if such infringement could
have been avoided by use of the then current version.
12.2. BY OEM. Without limiting Tioga's Intellectual Property
------
indemnification obligation under Section 12.1 above, OEM shall indemnify and
hold harmless Tioga against Damages arising out of (i) any third party claim
directly related to OEM's actions or omissions in its marketing, promotion,
advertising or sublicense of the Products and (ii) any claim of infringement of
a trademark asserted by a third party based upon Tioga's use, in full compliance
with this Agreement, of OEM's trademarks; provided, that, in each case OEM shall
have (x) received from Tioga notice of said claim as soon as practicable after
the assertion thereof, provided however that if there is a delay in providing
such notice that materially and adversely prejudices the defense of such claim
OEM shall be released from the indemnification obligations set forth in this
Section 12.2.; (y) have received from Tioga the exclusive right to control and
direct the investigation, defense, or settlement of such claims; and (z)
received complete cooperation and assistance of Tioga.

TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE DURATION OF STATUTORILY REQUIRED
WARRANTIES, IF ANY, SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE ABOVE LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD.

ARE REQUIRED TO APPLY BY STATUTE.
