user. Davox will pay a finders fee of 5% of the total net sales price of
the Davox proprietary Product(s), excluding any discounts and costs for
service, implementation, training and taxes, shipment, freight, and
insurance to Distributor. Under this Referral Program, the total
transaction will be sold and supported by Davox and will be credited
towards the Minimum Revenue Performance Level as outlined in Section 3(i).

i) To qualify, the lead must be a minimum configuration of 20 seats
and be qualified to close within 180 days.

Davox. The Lead Generation Form's appearance and content will be
mutually agreed upon between the parties.
iii) Davox shall review the lead and upon identifying the lead as a
"new" opportunity, will accept the lead and return the signed form to
Distributor. A lead is not considered "new", when the prospect/lead
is being worked directly/indirectly by Davox's sales force or is
currently a Davox customer. Davox must notify Distributor within five
(5) days of receipt of a Lead Registration Form as to acceptance or
non-acceptance of said Lead.

Distributor's expense, all steps that may be available to enforce the Software

incurs any damage due to such failure to adhere to the terms herein,
Distributor shall indemnify Davox for any and all losses incurred by
Davox due to such failure. (BOTH PARTIES SPECIFICALLY AGREE THAT TIES

new shipment date, but any such proposed new date cannot extend the original
shipment date by more than thirty (30) days. If Davox receives a rescheduling
notice at least thirty (30) days before the original shipment date, the

1. A. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The following describes the five (5) components of the Davox Unison Call Center
Management System. Attached hereto Exhibit 1-D is a Sun Hardware listing that
provides the Sun Microsystems's requirements that Lucent shall procure on its
o___ to run the following components of the Davox Unison Call Center Management
System. Only those items listed in paragraph #1 below shall be considered the
base product ("Base Product").
1. Unison Call Management Software (Base System)
--------------------------------------------
Davox's Unison systems include supervisor management tools utilizing Rules-Based
management strategies and a broad range of software-driven features that allow
the real-time control of all call center activities via a user-friendly, point-
ar__ click graphical user interface (GUI).
The Unison Call Center Management System software is comprised of three (3)
modules, each with a distinct set of features designed to enhance calling
operations, resulting in improved supervisor, agent, and overall call center
productivity.
. Unison Strategist(R) -- Allows call center managers to set overall
productivity objectives and campaign strategies for the call center in a
timely fashion. Features of this module support supervisory tasks for
establishing and managing all center activities, including messaging,
scripting, and reporting, all via an easy-to-use graphical user
interface. Most importantly, all user-defined parameters can be modified
at any time to reflect shifts in strategic objectives.
. Unison Tactician(R) -- Provides supervisors the flexibility and
functionality to ensure maximum agent productivity and effectiveness. By
providing real-time "windows" into all call center activity, supervisors
can measure both individual and team performance and when necessary,
quickly and easily spot and support individuals requiring assistance.
With outbound agent skill set matching and transfer capabilities, users
can be assured that customer calls are handled by the appropriately
skilled agent or agent group. Real-time monitors assist supervisors in
tracking and reacting to changing conditions which might adversely affect
operations.
. Unison Precision Dial(R) -- Automates all aspects of the calling process
by streamlining unproductive, time consuming, and redundant tasks,
allowing agents to focus on the customer contact and supervisors to
assist agents in their efforts. Agents are paced seamlessly and
automatically through the calling tasks and jobs, including those
scheduled to occur at a time and date in the future. Inbound calls
received prior to a scheduled outbound placement are eliminated from the
calling job, while newly scheduled customer contacts are automatically
inserted into an appropriate call campaign. By offloading all call
placement activities, agents and supervisors are free to engage in and
focus on productive customer conversations.
2. Desktop API Developer License
-----------------------------
The agent's desktop application will vary significantly depending upon the
individual end user. Unison provides an Application Programming Interface
("API"), that allows the application provider with the necessary message set in
order to integrate their desktop application with the Unison Base Product to
provide a seamless integration.
3. Seamless Call and Agent Load Equalizer (SCALE)
---------------------------------------------
The SCALE(R) option allows users to create pools of agents which can alternate
between handling incoming and outgoing calls as overall peak and lull patterns
dictate. In so doing, Unison allows call center management to share valuable
agent resources for call handling and call placement functions. SCALE, which
monitors inbound activity via an ASAI CTI link to the AT&T G3, provides the
seamless blending of outbound and inbound calling functions. Based on dynamic
checks of the inbound queue-dependent, user-defined threshold settings or
service level goals, blended agents are Assigned inbound calls as necessary to
maintain the established goal settings.
All inbound activity is reported on in the same manner as outbound calling
activity: agent status displays, agent and campaign call results, agent and
campaign alerts, etc.
Supervisors control outbound and inbound agent assignments as well as set agent
priority assignments for each campaign worked. This provides for ultimate
flexibility in defining which agents Unison should seek first for any campaign,
outbound or inbound. Adjustments can be made as necessary as conditions
dictate, without interrupting campaign activity.
SCALE coupled with the Unison Call Center Management Base software ensures
ultimate productivity in the call center by streamlining and maximizing all call
center resources.
4. Digital Communications Server (DCS)
-----------------------------------
The Unison DCS is a fully digital, non-blocking switch matrix, with direct T1
support for both trunk and agent connections. The DCS places calls via PBX/CO
trunks and performs call signal detection, call progress analysis, and call
routing functions. The DCS, incorporating advanced digital signal processing
(DSP) technology, is based on the industry standard SPOX operating system
developed at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
Each physical DCS cabinet supports a total of 288 voice ports. A voice port can
be configured either for support of outbound call processing or as an agent
interface. The non-blocking, digital switch is designed to interconnect with
other Digital Communications Servers to form a scaleable, non-blocking matrix of
up to 200 outbound/blended agents and 300 lines. All components are VME
compatible.
-30-
Depending upon the customer environment and requirements, the Unison base
software module can interface either to the DCS as described above or to the
AT&T G3 Call Classifier option to perform call signal detection and call
progress analysis.
5. Additional Supervisor License
-----------------------------
Each Unison Base Product comes with one (1) Supervisor License. For larger
Systems, additional Supervisor Licenses may be required to allow a division of
agents into groups where each supervisor can view and mange their individual
groups. Refer to Exhibit 1.D. for workstation options to provide these
additional supervisory positions.

PROBLEM ESCALATION PROCEDURE
I. INTRODUCTION
------------
This procedure defines the process for handling and escalating problems on
released products for customers with support contracts within DAVOX. It
describes how problem calls are placed, how problems are prioritized, how
problems are escalated, and how higher levels of technical and management
resources are brought to bear on especially difficult problems.
/*/ INDICATES MATERIAL THAT HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FOR WHICH CONFIDENTIAL
TREATMENT HAS BEEN REQUESTED. ALL SUCH OMITTED MATERIAL HAS BEEN FILED WITH THE
COMMISSION PURSUANT TO RULE 24b-2 PROMULGATED UNDER THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT
OF 1934, AS AMENDED.
-82-
II. PURPOSE
-------
To establish the lines of communications and to identify the responsible
DAVOX personnel and/or ensure all calls are managed in a consistent and
expeditious manner to minimize downtime and disruption to the customer
environment.
III GENERAL GUIDELINES
------------------
1) All escalation begins within the Worldwide Support Center (WSC).
2) The WSC representative who initiates a Case is responsible for ensuring
problem resolution and communicating status and/or resolution to the
customer.
3) The WSC representative in conjunction with the customer assesses the
technical and business impact of the problem and assigns the priority (see
Case Priority Definitions "Attachment "A"). The priority of the escalated
problem will be reviewed by WSC management.
4) The status/resolution of an escalated problem is reported by the action
owning department to the WSC, via the on-line system, for customer
communication/verification and Case closure.
5) Initial problem escalation is the responsibility of the WSC and is effected
via a predetermined set of timeframes based upon the priority of the
problem (Attachment "B").
6) All problems escalated to Development will be accompanied by a Case/Defect
with problem duplication (or agreed best effort performed).
7) Problem escalation's to Development is from the Installation Support and
SES organizations ONLY.
8) Customer and/or field retrieval of required additional information,
installation of available fix, and follow up remain the responsibility of
SES/SIS department. In circumstances where problem reproduction is not
possible, the escalating department should be prepared to participate in
the problem resolution activities as required to ensure a timely solution.
9) ALL Customer system problems should be escalated through the established
paths of the Installation Support and/or SES organizations regardless of
priority and should be accompanied by the appropriate Defect/Case database
information. It is understood that any escalation's outside this process
will occur when the time attributed to following these guidelines would, in
and of itself, impose a significant delay or overall reduction in the
service quality provided to the customer.
10) If a patch or workaround supplied by Development does not solve the
customers problem; SES/SIS is to escalate the problem back to Development
where continuous effort (as required) will be applied to correct the
problem.
-83-
11) All times in this document are (MAXIMUM TIMES) to be viewed as "Stated
Company Business Hours/Days" management reserves the right to move calls as
required to meet specific business demands.
12) If a Case is determined to be outside of the intended specified
functionality of the product. The Case will be escalated to Marketing for
resolution with the customer in accordance with the priorities and time
frames as stated herein.

NOTE:
. Reclassification of priority is only to occur if a problem has worsened,
thereby increasing the impact on the customer or as directed by management.
Within priority categories, Cases will be worked in order of decreasing age,
unless different priorities are assigned by Management.
VI. ENHANCEMENTS
------------
. If a reported problem has been determined to be a product improvement or
enhancement, then the Case will be forwarded by the WSC to the Marketing
Department for evaluation.
. The Marketing Department will then:
1. Determine if it is to become a product improvement. If so, the
specification will be forwarded to Development. If not, the issue
will be closed through the WSC.
2. Determine if it is to be treated as a special and quoted to the
customer as a "RFA" by Sales. If so, this would be communicated to
Sales by Marketing, and to the WSC for updating the Case. If not, the
issue will be closed by the WSC.
VII. PROBLEM DOCUMENTATION AND FOLLOW-UP
-----------------------------------
. All corrective action will be documented in the on-line system.
. The nature of the problem, summary of action, and resolution will be
communicated to the customer for any problem that exceeds twenty-four (24)
hours in the case of Critical or High priority problems.
. If resolution of a problem requires a code alteration or new application
after a workaround is supplied, SES/SIS will notify the customer and the
original Case owner, then negotiate delivery of the solution.
-86-
. If resolution of a problem involves operation, training, or released patch
deployment, the Case status is changed to reflect the resolution, and SES/SIS
communicates with the customer providing the information and informs the
original Case owner, so they may negotiate closure of the Case.
. All Down System calls that have been closed should be monitored for a one (1)
week timeframe for reoccurrence.
VIII. DOCUMENTATION
-------------
. If the Case is concerning documentation errors, a Low priority is assigned, a
Defect generated, and the issue is communicated to Documentation. The Defect
will be closed when the fix is confirmed in the next release of the
documentation.
