- Final Execution Copy -

3.4 Technical Consultation. The Parties desire to facilitate the efficient development and distribution of Approved Complete [*] Applications, and therefore desire to consult with one another during the process of designing and planning Developer’s Candidate Applications. Accordingly, upon development of initial designs and specifications for any particular Candidate Application, IXI may, at its election, submit such designs and specifications to [*] for purposes of soliciting feedback regarding the same. [*] shall provide such feedback and development support to IXI as [*], in its sole discretion, shall determine. Such feedback that is (a) specific to Developer’s design or user interface related to its Candidate Application; (b) in writing; and (c) labeled as “Technical Feedback” shall be considered “Technical Feedback.” Subject to the provisions of Section 11.3 (to the extent the Technical Feedback contains or makes reference to [*]’s Confidential Information), IXI shall be free to use, disclose, reproduce, license or otherwise distribute and exploit the Technical Feedback provided to it as it sees fit, entirely without obligation or restriction of any kind on account of intellectual property rights or otherwise. Subject to Section 19.13, IXI agrees that it will not, without [*]’s prior written consent, use the Technical Feedback in advertising, publicity, or otherwise, or refer to such Technical Feedback in press releases, advertising, or materials distributed to prospective customers.

3.5 Testing by IXI on Program Testing Server. During the Term, [*] agrees to maintain and make available for remote access using the applicable Test Authentication Key (as that term is defined below) one (1) or more computer servers from which non-production copies of the [*] Service are hosted (collectively, the “Test Server”). [*] shall make reasonable efforts to provide a non-production copy of the [*] Service that is similar to the production copy of the [*] Service. During the process of developing any Candidate Application, IXI or its Third Party Developer may remotely access the Test Server, solely according to the protocols [*] may specify from time-to-time, and solely for purposes of testing the Candidate Application(s) under development using the [*] number, password, and/or other authentication credentials issued by [*] for such purpose (the “Test Authentication Key”). IXI acknowledges that [*] makes no representations or warranties with respect to the Test Server or with respect to the software or services accessible on the Test Server, including, without limitation, any representations or warranties regarding system availability. [*] may provide technical support with respect to the Test Server solely as it determines in its discretion. For sake of clarity, IXI acknowledges that no right or authorization is granted by this Agreement to access or use (and IXI shall not access or use directly or through its Third Party Developer) the actual [*] Service or an [*] Affiliate service in connection with development and/or testing of Candidate Applications. In addition, IXI will keep and cause any Third Party Developer to keep the Test Authentication Key confidential.

3.6 Feedback. IXI may from time-to-time provide suggestions, comments, ideas or other feedback (“Feedback”) to [*] with respect to the [*] Technical Information. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.3 (to the extent the Feedback contains or makes reference to IXI’s Confidential Information) and subject to the provisions of Section 19.13, [*] shall be free to use, disclose, reproduce, license or otherwise distribute and exploit the Feedback provided to it as it sees fit, entirely without obligation or restriction of any kind on account of intellectual property rights or otherwise.

3.7 Utilization of Third-Party Developers. IXI shall have the right to engage one (1) or more third parties (each a “Third Party Developer”) to act on IXI’s behalf to use the Mobile Developer Kit, develop Candidate Applications, utilize the Test Server pursuant to Section 3.5, to submit such Candidate Applications to [*] for review by [*], and to access the [*] Network, provided that (a) any such Third Party IXI engagement by IXI shall be subject to [*]’s prior written approval, and (b) that either (x) such Third Party Developer has entered into an MDP Program agreement with [*] or [*] or (y) IXI enters into a binding, written agreement with the relevant Third Party Developer, which agreement is no less protective of [*], the Test Authentication Key, the Test Server, the [*] Technical Information and the [*] Service and the [*] Network than are the terms of this Agreement and shall only enable , such Third Party Developer to access to the [*] Network for the use and benefit of IXI, and (c) IXI shall remain responsible for the acts and omissions of such Third Party Developers as if such acts or omissions were undertaken by IXI. For purposes of clarification, employees and independent contractors employed by IXI shall not be considered Third Party Developers; provided, however, that IXI shall remain liable for any act or omission undertaken by such employees and independent contractors. Subject to this Section 3.7, the aforementioned shall not restrict IXI in changing its IM gateway provider from time to time provided however that such change will no occur more than twice during the Term and upon a [*] prior written notice to [*].

- Final Execution Copy -

Where IXI has used a Third party Developer, and such Third Party Developer improperly uses the [*] Application, Test Authentication Key, the Test Server, the [*] Technical Information, Application Branding Elements and the [*] Service and the [*] Network, IXI shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist [*] in pursuing any claim against such Third Party Developer related to that Third Party Developer’s resulting improper use of the [*] Application, Test Authentication Key, the Test Server, the [*] Technical Information, Application Branding Elements and the [*] Service and the [*] Network.

4. APPROVAL OF APPLICATIONS

4.1 Submission of Candidate Applications. Upon completion of any Candidate Application, IXI may submit the same to [*] for assessment as a potential Approved Complete [*] Application. Notwithstanding the foregoing, IXI agrees that it will not submit any such Candidate Application for [*] assessment unless and until IXI (i) has successfully tested the Candidate Application by means of remote access to the Test Server and (ii) has made a good faith determination that the relevant Candidate Application complies in all material respects with the Mobile Developer Kit and other Approval Criteria. Each submission of a Candidate Application must be made in accordance with the requirements set forth in the Mobile Developer Kit, including the provision to [*] at no cost of at least [*] samples of the Candidate Platform on which the Candidate Application is to be tested; provided, however, that where the Candidate Platform includes an IXI Server or a Third Party Developer Server , IXI shall not be required to provide such IXI Server or Third Party Developer Server to [*], provided further that IXI or Third Party Developer must provide access to such IXI Server or Third Party Developer Server. [*] shall at its own expense return such samples to IXI within [*] following completion of such testing.

4.2 Assessment of Candidate Applications. Upon receipt of a properly submitted Candidate Application, [*] agrees to conduct testing and assessment of such Candidate Application for the purpose of determining whether the Candidate Application complies with the applicable Approval Criteria. IXI acknowledges that [*] makes no representations or warranties regarding the timeframe within which any such testing and assessment will be completed; provided, however, [*] agrees to make good faith efforts to complete such testing and assessment in accordance with a milestone schedule that shall be mutually agreed upon in writing by the Parties.

4.3 Notice of Approval.

(a) In the event that [*] determines that a particular Candidate Application meets all requirements for designation as an Approved Complete [*] Application, [*] will so inform IXI in writing. Upon receipt of such written notice, the relevant Candidate Application will be considered an Approved Complete [*] Application for purposes of this Agreement.

(b) In the event that [*] determines that a particular Candidate Application fails to meet applicable Approval Criteria, [*] will so inform IXI in writing, stating [*]’s reasons for such determinations. IXI may, at its option, thereafter elect to modify the relevant Candidate Application for re-submission to [*] for evaluation pursuant to Section 4.2, provided that any such re-submission shall comply with the requirements of Section 4.1 and, prior to any such re-submission, IXI shall have (i) successfully tested the modified Candidate Application by means of remote access to the Test Server; (ii) made good faith determinations that the relevant Candidate Application complies in all material respects with the Approval Criteria; and (iii) made a good faith determination that the modified Candidate Application corrects the failures previously identified by [*].

4.4 Authentication Keys. Once the Approved Complete [*] Application is approved for distribution as part of a Compliant Device by IXI or Approved Third Party Distributors (as defined below in Section 5.1) for the use of users of a Compliant Device in an Approved Territory, in accordance with Sections 4.2 and 4.3, then [*] will provide to IXI a client identifier and, where appropriate, an authentication key(s) unique to IXI for use with such Approved Complete [*] Application for a particular Authorized Platform (each, an “Authentication Key”). [*] grants to IXI a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, royalty-free license to integrate, in accordance with the requirements of the Mobile Developer Kit, such Authentication Key into any Approved Complete [*] Application for use as part of Authorized Platform(s) for the relevant Compliant Devices. Pursuant to this license, IXI may use such Authentication Key, either directly or through Third Party Developer, solely for the purpose of enabling use of the Compliant Devices and/or specific Approved [*] Complete Application for a particular Authorized Platform with the [*] Service. IXI will integrate such Authentication Key into any Approved Complete [*] Application for use as part of an Authorized Platform(s) for the relevant Compliant Devices. [*] will provide such Authentication Key by means of such secure protocols as [*] may specify from time-to-time. Under no circumstances may IXI use such Authentication Key in connection with any application or device other than the particular Approved Complete [*] Application and the relevant Authorized Platform(s) for which it is issued. IXI shall keep all such Authentication Keys strictly confidential and shall undertake all precautions specified in the Mobile Developer Kit and all other commercially reasonable precautions to prevent such Authentication Keys from unauthorized disclosure. IXI shall immediately inform [*] if the confidentiality of any Authentication Key has been compromised.

4.5 Re-Approval of Modified Applications. In the event that any Approved Complete [*] Application is updated, improved or otherwise modified in any way other than Minor Changes, it shall thereafter no longer be considered an Approved Complete [*] Application unless and until it has been re-submitted for assessment in accordance with Section 4.1 and, as modified, has been designated by [*] as an Approved Complete [*] Application. IXI agrees that it shall provide to [*] a final version of the Approved Complete [*] Application, complete with all Minor Changes, if any, prior to any public distribution.

4.6 Revocation of Approval. IXI acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding Section 18.5, [*] may deny any Approved Complete [*] Application access to the [*] Services in the event of a breach of this Agreement that remains uncured by IXI for [*] following written notice and an opportunity to cure the breach. Notwithstanding the foregoing, [*] may also deny any Approved Complete [*] Application access to the [*] Services and [*] Network immediately in the event of compromise to the security of an Authentication Key or of an Approved Complete [*] Application (whether due to a breach of this Agreement or not), in which case the Parties shall work together in good faith to mitigate the effects of any such revocation. IXI further acknowledges and undertakes to prohibit and/or deny any Third Party Developer access to the [*] Services upon (i) any acts or omissions of a Third Party Developer that (a) would be considered a breach of this Agreement if such acts or omissions were undertaken by IXI; (b) are related to the protection or prohibitions against the misuse of the [*] Services, any other [*] service, the [*] Network, the [*] IM Network, the [*] Namespace, [*] Users, the Application Branding Elements, any Authentication Key (including the Test Authentication Key), the [*] Technical Information, and/or [*] owned or licensed intellectual property, and (c) is not cured following [*] notice to IXI of such act or omission.
