(c) MODIFICATION TO THE QUEST QUERY ACTIVITY PROGRAM: Independent from UPS and
GUPTA other rights and obligations under this Agreement, GUPTA agrees to

integration of such Program into the UPS Product. Such modification shall

as an MDI child window. It would also allow the file save dialogue to be
overridden and allow query access to be restricted to specific tables and
columns.
GUPTA shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to provide such modification
to UPS before December 31, 1994. In consideration for GUPTA's separate agreement

relieved of any obligation to provide such modification to UPS. Such
modification shall remain GUPTA's sole and exclusive property and shall have the
same licensing rights in the modification as it does to the Programs, (i.e.,
licensed by GUPTA to UPS for use, sublicensing and distribution in conjunction
with its rights to the Programs under this Agreement)
(d) TECHNICAL COOPERATION: GUPTA shall use all commercially reasonable efforts
to incorporate UPS Product test scripts as part of GUPTA's quality assurance
efforts for the Programs.

It is important for customers to understand the call flow process within the
Technical Services organization and throughout the company. This escalation
process is designed to make sure that support resources are leveraged to best
serve our customers (i.e., calls) with the severest problems given immediate
attention. Below are two charts outlining the escalation procedure followed for
any call placed into a GUPTA Technical Support facility. The way in which a

throughout the organization as reflected in the second chart.

Dear Xxxxxxx:
OEM SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT DATED SEPTEMBER 29, 1994 AND AMENDED BY LETTER
AGREEMENT DATED SEPTEMBER 8, 1995 ("AGREEMENT").
This letter is simply to confirm and clarify certain terms of our existing
Agreement with United Parcel Service, General Service Company ("UPS").
In prior years, Centura Software Corporation ("Centura") engaged in various
marketing programs wherein customers occasionally received certain Centura
products free of charge. The intent of this letter is to confirm your
understanding that such activities do not create an obligation, either express
or implied, on the part of Centura to deliver any such free merchandise to UPS.
And that it is your understanding that the terms of the Agreement provide UPS
with rights to use product only as specifically set forth in the Agreement and
do not expressly or implicitly provide UPS with rights to receive other products
produced by Centura free of charge.
We very much appreciate our relationship with UPS and look forward to our
continuing involvement and in providing UPS with robust mobile and secure
computing solutions.
Thank you very much for your attention to this matter. If you could please
indicate your acknowledgment and concurrence with the foregoing statements by
signing and returning a copy of this letter to Xxxx Xxxxxxxxx, it would be
greatly appreciated.
Sincerely, Agreed,

Re: GUPTA Agreement No. 94-OEM-4914-UPS
UPS Agreement No. 94-5487
Dear Xx. Xxxxxxx:
I am writing in response to your request for information about levels of
inventory for the UPS Product and GUPTA Programs.
We currently have 80,650 copies of the UPS Product in inventory for
distribution. This is consistent with our historical levels of year-end
inventory. (For example, as of December 2003 we had approximately 76,500
copies in inventory).
With respect to GUPTA Programs, our records reflect that we currently have
18 copies that our developers use to create the UPS Product. If for any
reason your records reflect anything different, please let me know.
You have also asked about shipments of GUPTA Programs to end users. We do
not, however, ship GUPTA "Programs" to end users. Rather, we distribute
"UPS Product" as defined in the contract, and the Product contains the
GUPTA Program. This may not make a difference for purposes of your
question, but I wanted to bring it to your attention and clarify it.
I believe that this addresses your questions. Please note that our license
agreement has a confidentiality provision in it. We consider this
information confidential and subject to those terms. It should not be
distributed or shared with anyone else.
Sincerely,
/s/ Xxxxxxx Xxxxx
Xxxxxxx Xxxxx
Lead Contracts Administrator
