Engaging Application. EHC shall deliver any such EHC Engaging Applications which
are not Protected Engaging Applications to HMI within six (6) months from its
general release to EHC customers.
(3) Should HMI create any Engaging Applications for general release to
HMI's customers ("HMI Engaging Applications"), (i) EHC acknowledges that the
Engaging Applications created by HMI are owned by and shall remain the sole
property of HMI; * * * HMI shall, in consideration of the revenue sharing scheme
set forth in Part VI.1.F, offer to EHC a * * *, nonexclusive, nontransferable,
world-wide right and license to use and copy, as well as offer and distribute to
End Users under HMI's standard license terms (pursuant to Part III.1.B), such
HMI Engaging Applications solely for EHC's internal use and in conjunction with
EHC's Web Site. In addition, EHC may sublicense HMI Engaging Applications to
third parties under commercially reasonable terms; provided that such terms will
be at least as protective of HMI's intellectual property (and intellectual
property and other proprietary rights therein) as is the license to LHR granted
to EHC in Part III.1 above. Should HMI be permitted to sublicense any third-
party Engaging Applications to EHC, HMI may offer EHC the opportunity to
purchase a sublicense to such third-party Engaging Applications. HMI shall
deliver any such HMI Engaging Applications to EHC upon such HMI Engaging
Applications general release to other HMI customers.
B. The license grant set forth in Part III.3.A(3) includes any and all
Updates, Releases and new Versions of the HMI Engaging Applications that may be
provided to EHC from time to time. EXCEPT FOR THE WARRANTY PROVIDED IN PART
III.3.C, HMI PROVIDES THE HMI ENGAGING APPLICATIONS SOLELY ON AN "AS-IS" BASIS.

C. Each party warrants that its Engaging Applications licensed to the other
party do not infringe any third party copyrights, patents or trademarks or
misappropriate any trade secrets rights of a third party. If a third party
brings an action against the licensee party making allegations which, if true,
would constitute a breach of this warranty, or if the licensor party anticipates
such an action, the licensor party shall have the option, at its expense, to:
(i) modify the Engaging Application to be noninfringing; or (ii) obtain for the
licensee party a license to continue using the Engaging Application. This Part
III.3.C and Part VII.2.C (in the case of HMI) and Part VII.2.B (in the case of
EHC) state the licensor party's entire obligation to the licensee party and the
licensee party's sole remedy with respect to any claim of intellectual property
infringement for Engaging Applications. The obligation of each party set forth
in this Part III.3.C (and related other sections) shall survive termination or
expiration of this Agreement for injuries arising prior to termination or
expiration.

E. EHC acknowledges that the LHR Source Code, the PMR Source Code and the
Health Tools Source Code constitute highly sensitive HMI Confidential
Information. If EHC obtains access to the LHR Source Code, the PMR Source Code
or the Health Tools Source Code as provided herein, it agrees to treat such
Source Code as HMI Confidential Information pursuant to Part VII.6 and otherwise
with at least the same degree of care as it treats the source code to its own

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PART IV. DEVELOPMENT AND MAINTENANCE OF LHR
1. EHC SERVICES
A. In conjunction with this Agreement, EHC shall provide to HMI a project
manager on a full time basis and an architect, Xx. Xxx Xxxxxxxx, on a half-time
basis (the "EHC Employees"). Such EHC Employees shall provide consulting,
software development and other professional services to HMI for the purposes of
assisting in developing, maintaining and enhancing the Acquired Product, the
Client-Based LHR and the Web-Based LHR consistent with the EHC Employees roles
as an architect and project manager (collectively, "Services").
B. The EHC Employees shall execute HMI standard consulting agreement, a copy
of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A (except that no payment shall be due to
EHC or the EHC Employees under such agreement) and the HMI standard
confidentiality agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B.
2. COMPLETION OF WEB-BASED LHR
A. Process. The currently existing Web-Based LHR will be further developed by
-------
HMI with the assistance of the EHC Employees. HMI shall assign the equivalent
of two full time employees (the "HMI EHC Resources") to assist in the
development of the EHC LHR, including EHC Features (as defined below); provided
that during the period before the initial release of the Web-Based LHR, the HMI
EHC Resources shall assist in the development of such initial release of the
Web-Based LHR. Furthermore, as agreed by the parties, during the period before
the initial release of the Web-Based LHR, EHC and HMI shall meet to review the
direction (technical and otherwise) of the Web-Based LHR. During the Term of
this Agreement, EHC shall have a reasonable opportunity to provide comment on
and approve, (such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), the direction
of the Web-Based LHR, in a timely manner, during the course of such meetings and
during the development of the Web-Based LHR; however, HMI will retain final
control over all aspects of the Web-Based LHR.
B. Third Party Secured Site.
(1) Before the release of the initial Web-Based LHR to EHC, HMI and EHC
will mutually select a commercially reasonable third-party secured site provider
(the "Third-Party Secured Site"), and HMI shall enter into a commercially
reasonable agreement with such Third-Party Secured Site, at which to host LHR on
HMI servers (i.e., servers specifically designated for HMI). Within sixty (60)
days of LHR first being hosted at such Third-Party Secured Site, the parties
shall negotiate in good faith a set of commercially reasonable service levels
(e.g., availability of LHR on the host server) ("Service Levels") which shall be
incorporated into this Agreement in the form of Exhibit E attached to this
Agreement. HMI shall be responsible for all costs associated with the Third
Party Secured Site.
-------------------------
*** Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been
requested with respect to the omitted portions.
14
(2) Should a breach of this Agreement by HMI * * * occur that would not
have occurred but for: (i) the hosting of LHR at the Third-Party Secured Site;
or (ii) the associated services ancillary to the hosting of LHR at the Third-
Party Site (e.g., telecommunications to and from the Third-Party Secured Site),
then HMI shall have a reasonable period of time (not to exceed thirty (30) days)
in which to work with the Third-Party Secured Site to identify and resolve the
factors contributing to such breach. If such breach persists (or in HMI's
opinion is likely to persist) following such period, HMI's sole obligation to
EHC * * * under this Agreement shall be * * *.
3. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS AND MAINTENANCE OF LHR
A. Future Development of LHR. HMI, at its sole discretion may provide
-------------------------
Updates, Releases or new Versions of LHR. As agreed by the parties, EHC and HMI
shall meet to review the direction (technical and otherwise) of LHR. After the
initial release of LHR, EHC shall have a reasonable opportunity to provide
comment on and approve, (such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), the
direction of such Updates, Releases or new Versions of EHC's version of LHR, in
a timely manner, when HMI seeks input during the development process; however,
HMI will retain final control over all aspects of LHR.
B. EHC LHR. After the initial release of Web-Based LHR EHC may request that
-------
certain EHC Features (as defined herein) be added to LHR to create a "Web-Based
EHC LHR" (the EHC versions of the Web-Based LHR and the Client-Based LHR are
collectively referred to as the "EHC LHR"). Upon the initial release of Web-
Based LHR, and at EHC's request, the EHC Employees and the HMR Resources shall
be used to assist in the creation of the EHC LHR as well as future Updates,
Releases or new Versions of the EHC LHR. The EHC LHR and all EHC Features shall
be and remain the property of HMI. "EHC Features" means a feature, data element
or function not part of the then-current Version of LHR (or the EHC LHR, as
applicable): (i) which is an original concept suggested by EHC; or (ii) which
is a feature or function which HMI does not agree to incorporate as a Suitable
Priority as part of LHR pursuant to this Part IV.3.B.
EHC shall provide its requested features and functions for LHR during the normal
course of project planning for LHR. HMI shall in a reasonably timely manner
decide to reject or incorporate such suggested features and functions into the
next Version of LHR, or assign such features and functions a priority level for
incorporation into the a future Version of LHR. If a feature or function is of
a priority level which, in EHC's reasonable judgment, is too low for
incorporation into LHR, the feature and function will be not of "Suitable
Priority", for purposes of Part IV.3.B (ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, HMI
shall not have the right to reject an EHC Feature which will be incorporated
into the EHC LHR, unless the EHC Feature, in HMI's reasonable discretion would
result in a breach of any of the warranties contained in Part III.2, and HMI may
also limit the programming resources used to develop an EHC Feature to the HMI
EHC Resources. If the parties cannot agree that an EHC Feature is an "original
concept" under of Part IV.3.B (i), then the parties shall resolve this issue
through the binding arbitration procedures described in Part VII.11.D.
(1) The parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain as
much compatibility as is practicable between LHR and the EHC LHR.
--------------
*** Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been
requested with respect to the omitted portions.
15
(2) For a period of * * * following such time as any EHC Feature has been
incorporated, but in no event longer than * * * after the EHC Feature has been
made available for incorporation, into any new Update, Release or Version of the
EHC LHR ("EHC Exclusivity Period"), * * *. By way of clarification, this
provision in no way restricts HMI from offering, licensing/distributing or
otherwise providing a Client-Based LHR or Web Based LHR (or any new Updates,
Releases or Versions thereof) to the extent that the Client-Based LHR or Web
Based LHR does not include any EHC Features that are still within their EHC
Exclusivity Period.
C. Support.
-------
(1) The parties shall mutually agree to support provisions, subject to
Part IV.3.C(3), relating to LHR that HMI will provide to EHC during the term of
this Agreement and commencing upon the initial release of the LHR, or failing
mutual agreement, the parties shall define such support provisions through the
binding arbitration procedure described in Part VII.11.D.
(2) HMI agrees that it will offer to EHC's end users, commercially
reasonable end user support for the EHC LHR, subject to Part IV.3.C(3), at a
commercially reasonable price. HMI shall offer the terms of such end user
support for EHC's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed.
(3) At any given time during the term of this Agreement, HMI shall, with
respect to any particular Version of EHC LHR, provide support to EHC for such
Version if and to the extent * * * have elapsed since the time such Version was
the current (i.e., most recent)Version of the EHC LHR (each such Version for
which HMI will provide support to EHC are hereinafter referred to as a
"Supported Version").
4. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS, TRAINING AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR THE HEALTH TALK AND
HEALTH VECTOR TOOLS
A. HMI, at its sole discretion may provide Updates, Releases or new Versions
of the HealthTalk Tool and/or the Health Vector Tool.
B. HMI shall provide to EHC, at no cost to EHC, a total of three (3) days of
training on the HealthTalk Tool and the Health Vector Tool at HMI's facilities,
which may be used by EHC up to one (1) year after the Effective Date. HMI shall
provide additional training as reasonably requested by EHC; provided that EHC
will reimburse HMI for the direct costs incurred by HMI in providing such
training to EHC (along with any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by
HMI in providing such training to EHC).
C. HMI shall provide technical support to EHC for the current Versions of the
Health Talk Tool and the Health Vectors Tool (and for the prior Version of such
Tools for a commercially reasonable period of time following the release of the
current Version of such Tools). EHC will reimburse HMI for the direct costs
incurred by HMI in providing such technical support to EHC (along with any
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by HMI in providing such technical
support to EHC).

(1) It is anticipated that EHC will "frame" or "embed" LHR in the EHC Web
Site as a mechanism for accessing LHR. EHC warrants that any non-HMI content
displayed or appearing to the end user in a "frame" or other similar mechanism
including, without limitation, advertisements and the content accessed by
selecting such advertisements, in conjunction with EHC's use of LHR shall not:
(a) constitute, or contain material that would constitute, libel, defamation or
slander; (b) constitute, or contain material that would constitute, an invasion
of the rights to publicity of any third party; or (c) infringe upon the IP
Rights of any third party. Except as set forth in Part VII.2.B, EHC's exclusive
liability and HMI's sole remedy for breach of this Part V.1.B(1) shall be for
EHC to remove any content which is the subject of the warranty claim in a
commercially reasonable timely fashion.
(2) EHC shall not modify, edit, abbreviate, censor or limit LHR's content
transmitted to EHC for display on the EHC Web Site through the LHR user
interface, including HMR Marks in LHR, except for the specific "framing"
contemplated in this Agreement.
(3) Each party shall conduct its business in a fair and ethical manner,
reflecting favorably upon the other party's software and the reputation,
goodwill, image and the credibility of the other party.

17
irrevocably waives any right to challenge or otherwise attempt to invalidate any
of the restrictive covenants that such party is subject to, or any part(s)
thereof. Each party agrees that, in the event it violates any of the restrictive
covenants to which it is subject, the other party shall be entitled to
preliminary and permanent injunctive relief as well as an equitable accounting
of all earnings, profits and other benefits arising from such violation, which
rights shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights or remedies to
which such other party may be entitled at law or in equity. If it is determined
that any of the * * * covenants set forth in this Part V.2, or any part(s)
thereof, are illegal or unenforceable, it is the parties' intent that the scope
of the covenant be reduced to conform to the requirements of law.
For so long as EHC remains a licensee of LHR and/or PMR in any form, and except
as expressly set forth in this Agreement, both parties' obligation under this
Part V.2 shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

agreements reasonably related to LHR shall be shared between EHC and HMI with
* * * of such Revenues allocated to EHC and * * * of such revenues to HMI. The
Revenue split for EDI shall be equitably adjusted to the extent that HMI
maintains and administers less than all of the additional programs, services and
support required to connect to the EDI exchange partner. As used herein, "EDI"
shall mean any arrangements which causes data to be transmitted in or out of LHR
repository to a third party (other than a consumer) without the use of the
consumer-oriented LHR front-end application.
D. Clinical Research Organizations (CRO). Any Revenues generated through CRO
-------------------------------------
Transaction reasonably related to LHR shall be shared between EHC and HMI with
* * * of such Revenues allocated to EHC and * * * of such Revenues to HMI. As
used herein, a "CRO Transaction" shall occur where any individual selects a
study (research) offer on the EHC Web Site where the study offer was directed to
the individual based on information found in the individual's LHR record.
E. Electronic Commerce (EC). The parties agree to negotiate in good faith the
------------------------
sharing of revenues generated through EC opportunities reasonably related to LHR
as such opportunities arise.
F. Engaging Applications. Any revenues generated by either party through an
---------------------
HMI or EHC Engaging Application shall be shared between EHC and HMI with * * *
of such revenues allocated to the party who developed the Engaging Application
and * * * of such revenues to the other party; provided, however, that HMI shall
not be required to share revenue pursuant to this Part VI.1.F for HMI Engaging
Applications if HMI was responsible for generating such revenue; provided that
the HMI Engaging Application is not a derivative work of an EHC Engaging
Application. If and to the extent revenues generated by an EHC Engaging
Application are subject to sharing pursuant to this Part VI.1.F and any other
revenue sharing provisions in this Part VI.1, such revenues shall be shared
pursuant to such other revenue sharing provisions, with the sharing of any
revenues generated by such EHC Engaging Application which are not subject to
such other revenue sharing provisions being determined by this Part VI.1.F.
G. Health Tool Applications. EHC shall, with respect to any Health Tool
------------------------
Application created by EHC which is not reasonably related to LHR and which is
not "framed" by or "embedded" within any EHC web site content, pay to HMI a
portion of the revenue received by EHC pursuant to any transaction of which the
licensing of such Health Tool Application to a third party is a part, in a
manner and to an extent that equitably reflects the relative value of each
party's contribution to the transaction (with
------------------
*** Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has been
requested with respect to the omitted portions.
20
HMI's contribution being the extent to which the Health Vectors Tool and/or the
Health Talk Tool enabled the development of such Health Tool Application). In
light of the foregoing, such portion shall be as mutually agreed upon by the
parties.
H. * * *
2. AUDITS
Each party shall maintain sufficient records to track the revenues
generated under Part VI.1. Either party shall have the right to audit, on a
reasonable basis, the other party's records and agreements to confirm the
accuracy of the revenues reported by such party and compliance with the other
terms and conditions of this Agreement. Such audits shall be at the requesting
party's expense, unless the audit reflects a discrepancy of * * * percent or
more in favor of the other party , in which case, the audited party shall
reimburse the other party for the costs of the audit. In the event of a
underpayment, the audited party, within a reasonable period of time, shall pay
the discrepancy together with interest at a rate of the lesser of (i) one-and-
one-half percent (1 1/2%) per month from the date the discrepancy occurred; or
(ii) the maximum amount allowed by applicable law. In the event of an
overpayment, the auditing party shall, within a reasonable period of time,
refund the amount over paid.
3. OPPORTUNITIES FOR REVENUE SHARING
In instances where EHC derives revenue from any product or services it
markets, offers or provides in which there is a component made up entirely or in
part of products or services (or a group of products or services) for which
revenue sharing applies under this Part VI.1, if a group of such products and
services are priced together, or if one or more of the products and services are
given to an End User free of charge (or at a significant discount) as part of a
deal where the End User buys some products or services and gets some products or
services for free (or at a significant discount), then the portion of the
revenue received by EHC that is allocated to the revenue sharing product or
service will be determined by looking at EHC's separate suggested retail prices
of all products and services that are "bundled" together, and determining what
proportion the suggested retail price of each revenue sharing product or service
bear to the total suggested retail prices of all the products or services
bundled together; and then that proportion of the total amount received would be
allocated to such revenue sharing product or service.
4. REVENUE SHARING PROCEDURES
The procedures for the reporting, invoicing and payment of revenues shall
be mutually agreed to by the parties under commercially reasonable terms and
conditions.

6. * * * REVENUES TO HMI
Until HMI has received a cumulative amount of * * * in Revenues from the
revenue sharing opportunities under Part VI.1, HMI shall receive * * * from such
opportunities* * *
7. BINDING ARBITRATION FOR RESOLUTION OF REVENUE SHARING DISPUTES
Should the informal dispute resolution procedure fail to resolve a dispute
between the parties with regard to the provisions of this Part VI, including
without limitation the amount and character of such revenue sharing, such
dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration as described in Part VII.11.D.
8. COST OF PERFORMANCE
Except as otherwise set forth herein, neither party shall be obligated to
pay any taxes of the other or any other expenses which the other party may be
liable for based upon or in connection with the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement.
9. SURVIVAL OF REVENUE SHARING
A. For so long as EHC remains a licensee of LHR and/or PMR in any form, and
except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, both parties' obligations
under this Part VI shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any
reason.

3. INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES
A. Notice. Promptly after receipt by any entity entitled to indemnification
------
under this Agreement of notice of the commencement or threatened commencement of
any civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative action or proceeding
involving a claim in respect of which the indemnitee will seek indemnification
pursuant to the appropriate provision of this Agreement, the indemnitee shall
promptly notify the indemnitor of such claim in writing. No failure to so
notify an indemnitor shall relieve it of its obligations under this Agreement
except to the extent that it can demonstrate damages attributable to such
failure. Within fifteen (15) days following receipt of written notice from the
indemnitee relating to any claim, but no later than ten (10) days before the
date on which any response to a complaint or summons is due, the indemnitor
shall notify the indemnitee in writing if the indemnitor elects to assume
control of the defense and settlement of that claim (a "Notice of Election").
The indemnitor shall reimburse the indemnitee for all costs and expenses
incurred by the indemnitee in responding to such action or proceeding during the
period between when the indemnitee has notified the indemnitor of the claim in
writing and when the indemnitor delivers a Notice of Election in response or the
expiration of the required notice period for the Notice of Election to be
delivered, whichever comes first.
B. Procedure Following Notice of Election. If the indemnitor delivers a
--------------------------------------
Notice of Election relating to any claim within the required notice period, the
indemnitor shall be entitled to have sole control over
___________________________
* * * Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has
been requested with respect to the omitted portions.
23
the defense and settlement of such claim; provided that (i) the indemnitee shall
be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel at
its own expense to assist in the handling of such claim, and (ii) the indemnitor
shall obtain the prior written approval of the indemnitee before entering into
any settlement of such claim or ceasing to defend against such claim. After the
indemnitor has delivered a Notice of Election and has assumed its obligations
under this Part VII.3 relating to any claim in accordance with the preceding
paragraph, the indemnitor shall not be liable to the indemnitee for any legal
expenses incurred by the indemnitee in connection with the defense of that
claim. In addition, the indemnitor shall not be required to indemnify the
indemnitee for any amount paid or payable by the indemnitee in the settlement of
any claim for which the indemnitor has delivered a timely Notice of Election if
such amount was agreed to without the written consent of the indemnitor.
C. Procedure Where No Notice of Election Is Delivered. If the indemnitor
--------------------------------------------------
does not deliver a Notice of Election relating to any claim within the required
notice period, the indemnitee shall have the right to defend the claim in such
manner as it may deem appropriate, at the cost and expense of the indemnitor.
The indemnitor shall promptly reimburse the indemnitee for all such costs and
expenses.
4. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each party's entire
liability and the other party's exclusive remedy for damages from any event or
claim arising under or relating to this Agreement, for any cause whatsoever, and
regardless of the form of action, whether in contract or in tort or any other
theory of liability (including, without limitation, breach of warranty and
negligence), will be limited as follows:
A. Each party will be liable for direct damages only, * * *
B. In no event will either party be liable for any lost profits, loss of
business, loss of use, lost savings or other consequential, special, incidental,
indirect, exemplary or punitive damages, even if advised of the possibility of
such damages.
C. The foregoing limitations shall not apply to: (i) claims that are the
subject of indemnification pursuant to Part VII.2; or (ii) claims arising out of
the breach of Part V.2, Part VI.1 (but only to the extent of unpaid revenues
plus accrued interest), or Part VII.6.
D. Each party shall have a duty to mitigate damages for which the other
party is responsible.
E. The remedies expressly stated in this Agreement are the sole and
exclusive remedies of either party. The limitations of liability set forth in
this Part VII.4 will survive the failure of any limited or exclusive remedy set
forth in this Agreement and the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
5. FORCE MAJEURE
Neither party will be deemed in default of this Agreement to the extent
that performance of its obligations, or attempts to cure any breach, are delayed
or prevented by reason of any act of God, cause
______________________
* * * Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has
been requested with respect to the omitted portions.
24
outside of the party's reasonable control or other force majeure; provided that,
such party promptly gives to the other party written notice of the condition and
undertakes commercially reasonable efforts to circumvent the cause of the delay
or minimize the extent of the delay. In any such event, the time for performance
or cure will be extended for a period equal to the duration of the delay, not to
exceed four (4) weeks. If the notifying party does not resume performance of
such obligations or cure such breach before the end of such four (4) week
period, the other party will be entitled to terminate the Agreement immediately
without any obligation or liability to the delayed party for doing so.
6. NONDISCLOSURE
A. Each party acknowledges that it may be furnished with or may otherwise
receive or have access to non-public information which relates to past, present
or future research, development, improvements, inventions, processes, software,
techniques, designs or other technical data, contact lists or other compilations
for marketing or development, or regarding administrative, management, financial
or marketing activities of HMI, EHC or other third parties which have provided
information to HMI or EHC. "Confidential Information" is all information (i)
identified in written, graphic electronic or oral format by the Disclosing Party
as confidential, trade secret or proprietary information, or (ii) or by its
nature or the circumstances surrounding its disclosure should reasonably be
regarded as Confidential Information. "Disclosing Party" is the party
disclosing Confidential Information. "Receiving Party" is the party receiving
Confidential Information. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
Confidential Information shall be deemed to include End-User Data and data about
end users contained in Health Vectors, and the terms and conditions of this
Agreement.
B. All Confidential Information furnished or otherwise disclosed to either
party in the course of performing this Agreement shall remain the property of
and be deemed proprietary and confidential to the Disclosing Party (with the
exception of End-User Data which shall be deemed, for the purposes of protecting
the confidentiality of such End-User Data under this Agreement, to be
confidential to the Disclosing Party). Without limiting the foregoing, the
Receiving Party agrees: (a) to the extent permitted by applicable law, to hold
such Confidential Information in strict confidence and in trust for the
Disclosing Party; (b) to use the same degree of care in protecting the
Confidential Information for which it protects its own such confidential
information of like nature, but in no instance with less than reasonable care
to protect such Confidential Information against unauthorized use or disclosure;
and (c) to restrict disclosure of such Confidential Information to its employees
who (i) are directly participating in the performance of this Agreement; (ii)
have a need to know such Confidential Information; and (iii) have, upon the
request of the Disclosing Party as a prerequisite to the release of Confidential
Information, executed an employee nondisclosure agreement in a form mutually
acceptable to the Disclosing Party and the Receiving Party.
C. The Receiving Party further agrees that, with regard to Confidential
Information which it has received or itself generated, it will not disclose or
allow to be disclosed any such Confidential Information to any third party,
including, without limitation, any subsidiary, Affiliate, joint venture, any
other contractual, cooperative, or affiliated entity of the such third party, or
any independent entity without the express prior written consent of the
Disclosing Party, which consent the Disclosing Party may give or withhold in its
sole discretion unless disclosure of such Confidential Information is required
by applicable law. If a Disclosing Party consents to the disclosure of such
Confidential Information to any such third party, such disclosure shall not be
made until Receiving Party, the Disclosing Party and the third party have
entered into a non-disclosure agreement in a form acceptable to the Disclosing
Party.
25
D. The Receiving Party shall not reproduce, disclose or use Confidential
Information, except for the sole purpose of performing its obligations under
this Agreement or in accordance with applicable law. Without limiting the
generality of the preceding sentence, the Receiving Party may not use
Confidential Information which it has received, collected or itself generated
for purposes other than performing its obligations under this Agreement without
the prior written consent of the Disclosing Party.
E. The limitations on reproduction, disclosure, or use of Confidential
Information shall not apply to, and neither party shall be liable for,
reproduction, disclosure, or use of any particular Confidential Information of
the other that:
(1) was developed independently by the Receiving Party prior to the
receipt of any Confidential Information under this Agreement, as evidenced by
written documents prepared or received by such party prior to the receipt of any
Confidential Information under this Agreement;
(2) was received without any obligation of confidentiality from a third
party that was rightfully in possession of such information and had the right to
disclose it to the Receiving Party without an obligation of confidentiality;
(3) has been published or otherwise disclosed to others by the
Disclosing Party without restrictions, or has come within the public knowledge
or become generally known to the public without breach of this Agreement;
(4) is a derivative of End-User Data (or data about end users contained
in Health Vectors) that is of a statistical/demographic nature and provided in
an anonymous form, as an aggregate of the similar information of multiple end
users that does not individually identify specific end users (e.g., the number
of LHR end users who are males between the ages of 25 and 40 reporting a
particular condition); or
(5) is legally required to be disclosed pursuant to a judicial order
(provided that, prior to such disclosure, the party ordered to make such a
disclosure promptly informs the other of the order).
The party seeking the protection of any of items (1) through (5) above shall
bear the burden of proof with respect to any such exception. Immediately upon
receipt by the Receiving Party of any request to release, disclose or use
Confidential Information, where such release, disclosure or use is required by
applicable law and is otherwise in contravention to the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, Receiving Party shall provide Disclosing Party written notice of
such request. Such notice shall be calculated to be sufficiently descriptive
and in advance of any such release, disclosure or use so as to allow Disclosing
Party the opportunity to raise any appropriate objections. Disclosing Party
shall be solely responsible for raising such objections and shall bear all
costs, including legal costs, associated with such objections. Confidential
Information may be disclosed on a need to know basis to the accountants and
attorneys of the Receiving Party without the consent of the Disclosing Party.
F. Should the Receiving Party receive information with uncertain status, the
Receiving Party agrees to treat such information as Confidential Information
until it receives written verification from the Disclosing Party that such
information is not Confidential Information.
G. Neither the execution of this Agreement, nor the furnishing of any
Confidential Information by the Disclosing Party or the Receiving Party shall be
construed as granting to either party expressly, by implication, by estoppel or
otherwise, any license under any trademark, copyright, invention or other
proprietary right now or hereafter owned or controlled by the party furnishing
such information.
26
H. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, upon termination or
expiration of this Agreement for any reason, the Receiving Party shall, at the
Disclosing Party's option, either return or destroy all Confidential
Information, and shall destroy all analyses, compilations, forecasts, studies
and other documents based upon or derived from such Confidential Information,
and in each case shall retain no copies and shall cause an officer of the
Receiving Party to certify in writing that it has complied fully with its
obligations under this Part VII.6.H.
I. With regard to Confidential Information which either party has received
or itself generated, in the event either party becomes aware of any release,
disclosure or use of such Confidential Information which has not been authorized
by this Agreement, it will promptly, at its sole expense, (i) notify the
Disclosing Party in writing; (ii) take such actions as may be necessary or
reasonably requested by the Disclosing Party to minimize such unauthorized
release, distribution or use and any damage to the Disclosing Party resulting
therefrom; and (iii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, cooperate in all
reasonable respects with the Disclosing Party to minimize any such release,
distribution, use and damage. The Receiving Party shall be considered to have
cured its breach of this Part VII.6 provided that: (i) the Receiving Party has
taken commercially reasonable efforts to modify its nondisclosure procedures and
educate its personnel to reduce the likelihood of similar breaches of this Part
VII.6; and (ii) the Receiving Party has made commercially reasonable efforts to
limit further disclosures by the person(s) or entity(ies) to whom unauthorized
disclosure was made.
J. The provisions of this Part VII.6 shall survive the termination or
expiration of this Agreement for any reason for a period of five (5) years;
provided, however, that such provision shall continue to apply: (i) to End-User
Data; (ii) to the LHR Source Code, PMR Source Code, EHC Engaging Applications
Source Code and Health Tools Source Code; and (iii) as necessary to comply with
any applicable laws, regulations, ordinances and codes.
7. RIGHTS IN DATA; SECURITY
A. Within ninety (90) days of the Effective Date, the parties shall in good
faith commence negotiations to mutually agree upon a set of standards to govern:
(i) the location of particular elements or types of End-User Data, as between
LHR and the EHC Web Site; (ii) the presentation of derivatives of End-User Data
to third parties; (iii) physical and logical security measures to safeguard
against the unauthorized alteration of access to, or destruction or loss of, End
User Data; (iv) use of End-User Data that is specific to a particular end user
but provided in a "blinded" fashion that does not reveal identifying data about
such end user) and (v) other security policies related to HMI's and EHC's uses
of End User Data (items (i) through (iv) collectively, the "End-User Data
Standards"). Such Standards will be based on, or take into account standards or
guidelines promulgated by: (i) federal or applicable state or local
governmental organizations; and (ii) industry recognized groups/organizations.
If the parties are unable to agree upon the End-User Data Standards within a
reasonable time frame, the parties shall mutually agree on one expert to resolve
(in a binding manner) the differences between the parties preventing such
agreement. If the parties cannot agree on an expert, the expert shall be
nominated by the arbitration panel identified in Part VII.11.D.
B. Once established and agreed upon, each party shall be bound by and comply
with such End-User Data Standards.
C. Notwithstanding Part VII.7.A and Part VII.7.B above, HMI shall have: (i)
the right to provide market research or data analysis on the whole of LHR (i.e.,
on all End User Data contained in LHR including, without limitation, the EHC
Sourced End-User Data aggregated with end user data from other
27
LHR customers) to third parties as specified in Part VI.1.H; and (ii) ongoing
access to EHC Sourced End-User Data as necessary to perform its obligations
under this Agreement including, without limitation, the ongoing maintenance,
support and enhancement of LHR (or the EHC LHR as the case may be).
8. DIGITAL SECURITY
To restrict access to LHR to authorized end users whose identity has been
verified, and to secure transmission of information over the Internet between
such end users and HMI, when using LHR, access to, and use of, LHR is protected
by a Digital Certificate based public-key encryption process. Accordingly,
prior to using LHR, end users shall be required to present a Digital Certificate
to HMI from an HMI approved Certifying Authority. Upon end user request, HMI
will serve as the Certifying Authority and issue an HMI Digital Certificate to
the end user. If the end user elects to obtain the Digital Certificate from an
HMI approved Certifying Authority (as opposed to HMI), the end user will be
responsible for any costs associated with acquiring such Digital Certificate.
9. INSURANCE
Each party will have and maintain in force the following insurance
coverages:
A. Comprehensive or Commercial General Liability Insurance, including
Products, Completed Operations Liability and Personal Injury, Blanket
Contractual Liability and Broad Form Property Damage Liability coverage for
damages to any property * * *
B. Employee Dishonesty and Computer Fraud coverage for loss arising out of
or in connection with any fraudulent or dishonest acts committed by the
employees or agents of the insured party, acting alone or in collusion with
others, including the property and funds of others in their care, custody or
control* * *
C. Errors and Omissions Liability Insurance covering the liability for
financial loss due to error, omission, negligence of employees and machine
malfunction * * *
D. Software Errors and Omissions Liability Insurance covering the liability
for financial loss due to software errors and omissions * * *
Each party shall cause its insurers to issue certificates of insurance
evidencing that the coverages and policy endorsements required under this
Agreement are maintained in force and that not less than thirty (30) days
written notice shall be given to the other party prior to any modification,
cancellation or non-renewal of the policies.
10. TERMINATION
A. If either party believes that the other party has failed in any material
respect to perform its obligations under this Agreement, then that party may
provide written notice to the breaching party
_____________________
* * * Certain information on this page has been omitted and filed separately
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Confidential treatment has
been requested with respect to the omitted portions.
28
describing the alleged failure in reasonable detail. If the breaching party does
not, within thirty (30) calendar days after receiving such written notice,
either (i) cure the material failure or (ii) if the breach is not one that can
reasonably be cured within thirty (30) calendar days, develop a plan to cure the
failure and diligently proceed according to the plan until the material failure
has been cured, then the non-breaching party may terminate this Agreement for
cause by providing written notice to the non-breaching party. Termination of
this Agreement will be in addition to, and not in lieu of, other remedies
available to the terminating party under this Agreement.
B. Either party may terminate this Agreement by giving the other party prior
written notice and designating a date upon which such termination shall be
effective if the notifying party makes a general assignment for the benefit of
creditors, files a voluntary petition of bankruptcy, suffers or permits the
appointment of a receiver for its business or assets, becomes subject to any
proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, whether domestic or foreign,
that is not dismissed within one hundred and twenty (120) days, or has wound up
or liquidated, voluntarily or otherwise.
C. Within thirty (30) days after the expiration or termination of this
Agreement for any reason: (i) EHC shall cease all use of and, at HMI's
election, return to HMI or destroy the original and all copies (including
partial copies) of all software, documentation, all HMI Confidential
Information, and any other products or materials licensed or otherwise provided
to EHC under this Agreement (including, without limitation, LHR, the Acquired
Assets, PMR, the Health Talk Tool and the Health Vectors Tool and HMI or third-
party Engaging Applications) for which EHC does not possess a valid license that
expressly by its terms survives the expiration or termination of this Agreement
("HMI Items"); (ii) all rights granted to EHC in and to such HMI items shall
terminate; (iii) HMI shall cease all use of and, at EHC's election, return to
EHC or destroy all EHC Engaging Applications licensed or otherwise provided to
HMI pursuant to this Agreement, as well as return to EHC or destroy the original
and all copies (including partial copies) of all EHC Confidential Information
and any other products or materials licensed or otherwise provided to HMI under
this Agreement; and (iv) all rights granted to HMI in and to such products shall
terminate. Each party shall certify in writing to the other party that it has
fully performed its obligations under this paragraph.
11. LAW AND DISPUTES
A. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware,
without regard to any provision of Delaware law that would require or permit the
application of the substantive law of any other jurisdiction.
B. Informal Dispute Resolution.
---------------------------
(1) Prior to the initiation of formal dispute resolution procedures,
the parties shall first attempt to resolve their dispute informally, as follows:
a) Upon the written request of a party, each party shall appoint a
designated representative whose task it will be to meet for the purpose of
endeavoring to resolve such dispute.
b) The designated representatives shall meet as often as the
parties reasonably deem necessary in order to gather and furnish to the other
all information with respect to the matter in issue which the parties believe to
be appropriate and germane in connection with its resolution. The
representatives shall discuss the problem and attempt to resolve the dispute
without the necessity of any formal proceeding.
29
c) During the course of discussion, all reasonable requests made
by one party to another for nonprivileged information, reasonably related to
this Agreement, shall be honored in order that each of the parties may be fully
advised of the other's position.
d) The specific format for the discussions shall be left to the
discretion of the designated representatives.
(2) Formal proceedings for the resolution of a dispute may not be
commenced until the earlier of:
a) the designated representatives concluding in good faith that
amicable resolution through continued negotiation of the matter does not appear
likely; or
b) thirty (30) days after the initial written request to appoint a
designated representative pursuant to Paragraph (a) above (this period shall be
deemed to run notwithstanding any claim that the process described in this Part
VII.11.B was not followed or completed).
(3) Part VII.11.B shall not be construed to prevent a party from
instituting, and a party is authorized to institute, formal proceedings earlier
to avoid the expiration of any applicable limitations period, or to preserve a
superior position with respect to other creditors.
C. Immediate Injunctive Relief.
---------------------------
The parties agree that the only circumstance in which disputes between
them shall not be subject to the provisions of Part VII.11.B is where a party
makes a good faith determination that a breach of the terms of this Agreement by
the other party is such that a temporary restraining order or other injunctive
relief is the only appropriate and adequate remedy. If a party files a pleading
with a court seeking immediate injunctive relief and this pleading is challenged
by the other party and the injunctive relief sought is not awarded in
substantial part, the party filing the pleading seeking immediate injunctive
relieve shall pay all of the costs and attorneys' fees of the party successfully
challenging the pleading.
D. Binding Arbitration.
-------------------
(1) Subject to Part VII.11.B above, and only where a particular part of
this Agreement calls for arbitration between the parties, such question or
dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be determined by
binding arbitration in the location of the principal place of a business of the
party who does not make the initial claim for arbitration, under the American
Arbitration Association ("AAA") Commercial Arbitration Rules with Expedited
Procedures in effect on the date hereof, as modified by this Agreement.
(2) There will be one arbitrator selected by the parties within ten
(10) days of the arbitration demand or if not, by the AAA from its Large,
Complex Case Panel (or have similar professional credentials), who shall be an
attorney with at least fifteen (15) years commercial law experience. Any issues
about whether a claim is covered by this Agreement will be determined by the
arbitrator.
(3) As may be shown to be necessary to ensure a fair hearing: the
arbitrator may authorize limited discovery; and may enter pre-hearing orders
regarding, without limitation, scheduling, document exchange, witness disclosure
and issues to be heard. The arbitrator will not be bound by the rules of
evidence or of civil procedure, but may consider such writings and oral
presentations as reasonable people would use in the conduct of their day-to-day
affairs, and may require the parties to submit some or all of their case by
written declaration or such other manner of presentation as the arbitrator may
30
determine to be appropriate. The parties intend to limit live testimony and
cross-examination to the extent necessary to ensure a fair hearing on material
issues.
(4) The parties agree that the arbitrator will be directed to use best
efforts to: (i) hold a private hearing within sixty (60) days after the initial
demand for arbitration; (ii) conclude the hearing within three (3) days; and
(iii) provide his or her written decision not later than fourteen (14) days
after the hearing. In making the decision and award, the arbitrator shall apply
the applicable substantive law. Absent fraud, collusion or willful misconduct by
the arbitrator, the arbitrator's award will be final, and judgment may be
entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator will award
attorneys' fees and costs to the prevailing party but will have no authority to
award any damages that are excluded by the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. Either party will have the right to apply at any time to a judicial
authority for appropriate injunctive or other interim or provisional relief, and
will not by doing so be deemed to have breached its agreement to arbitrate or to
have affected the powers reserved to the arbitrator.
(5) Neither party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content
or results of an arbitration without the prior written consent of both parties.
E. Both HMI and EHC agree to comply fully with all relevant export laws and
regulations of the United States to ensure that no information or technical data
provided pursuant to this Agreement is exported or re-exported directly or
indirectly in violation of law.
F. No proceeding, regardless of form, arising out of or related to this
Agreement may be brought by either party more than two (2) years after the
accrual of the cause of action, except that (i) proceedings related to violation
of a party's proprietary rights or any duty to protect Confidential Information
may be brought at any time within the applicable statute of limitations, and
(ii) proceedings for non-payment may be brought up to two (2) years after the
date the last payment was due.
12. GENERAL

C. Assignment/Change in Control.
-----------------------------
(1) Neither party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any right
or obligation set forth in this Agreement without the other party's prior
written consent, except (subject to Part VII.12.C(2)) that a party may assign
any right or obligation set forth in this Agreement to an Affiliate or to a
successor entity in the event of a merger, consolidation or sale of such party's
business or all or substantially all of such party's stock or assets, provided
the assignee agrees in writing to assume all of the assignor's obligations and
liabilities under this Agreement, and provided further that the substitution of
the rights of the assignee for the rights of the assignor does not materially
increase the scope of, in the case of EHC, EHC's use of HMI Materials and HMI or
third party Engaging Applications, or in the case of HMI, HMI's use of EHC
Engaging Applications, or materially increase the burden or risk imposed on the
other party by this Agreement. Any purported assignment in violation of the
preceding sentence will be void and of no effect. This Agreement will be binding
upon the parties' respective successors and permitted assigns.
(2) Immediately upon Control of HMI passing to an individual entity (or
a group of entities in the aggregate each of) whose main business is the
manufacture and/or sale of pharmaceuticals, tobacco products or insurance or to

terminate; (iii) HMI shall cease all use of and, at EHC's election, return to
EHC or destroy all EHC Engaging Applications, including source code, licensed or
otherwise provided to HMI pursuant to this Agreement; and (iv) all rights
granted to HMI in and to such products shall terminate. For the purposes of this
Agreement, "Control" shall mean the legal, beneficial, or equitable ownership,
directly or indirectly, of more than fifty percent (50%) of a class of the
capital stock of HMI ordinarily having voting rights. "Direct Competitor of EHC"
and "Direct Competitor of HMI" shall be defined by mutual agreement of the
parties, or failing mutual agreement through the binding arbitration procedure
described in Part VII.11.D.
D. Except as otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement, all media
releases, public announcements, and public disclosures by either party relating
to this Agreement or the subject matter of this Agreement, including promotional

regulatory requirements beyond the reasonable control of the disclosing party,
shall be coordinated with and approved by other party prior to release.
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, HMI may identify Empower as a client and

authority. Each party will be solely responsible for supervising, providing
daily direction and control, paying the salaries (including withholding of
income taxes and social security), worker's compensation, disability benefits
and the like of its personnel.
G. The provisions of this Agreement will be deemed severable, and the
unenforceability of any one or more provisions will not affect the
enforceability of any other provisions. In addition, if any provision of this
Agreement, for any reason, is declared to be unenforceable, the parties will
substitute an enforceable provision that, to the maximum extent possible in
accordance with applicable law, preserves the original intentions and economic
positions of the parties.
H. No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right, power or
remedy will operate as a waiver of such right, power or remedy, and no waiver
will be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the waiving party. If
either party waives any right, power or remedy, such waiver will not waive any
successive or other right, power or remedy the party may have under this
