The Parties shall mutually develop a Project plan utilizing Project management methodologies agreed to by the Parties, and predicated upon the Project’s requirements. The Project plan shall include deliverables, milestones and reviews.

ii.

In accordance with the Project plan and applicable Specifications, Supplier shall develop, complete, and deliver to AT&T all programming to be included in the Custom Software. All Custom Software developed by Supplier shall be documented concurrently with its programming. In accordance with the Project plan, AT&T shall provide to Supplier the relevant test and interface data and test scripts. All Custom Software provided to AT&T hereunder shall be tested (including unit subsystem and system testing) and debugged by Supplier, unless otherwise specified in the Order.

Proprietary and Confidential

This Agreement and information contained therein is not for use or disclosure outside of AT&T, its Affiliates, and third party

Software and Professional Services Agreement

iii.

After the completion of such testing and debugging, Supplier shall Deliver (and install, if applicable) such Custom Software to AT&T on or before the scheduled Delivery Date set forth in the applicable Order. Delivery shall be in accordance with Subsection c of Section 3.10 “Delivery of Software” below. The protocol for Acceptance Tests after Delivery is described below in Section 3.9 “Acceptance or Rejection.”

iv.

Each Order will be subject to the governance procedures applicable to such Order. The respective Project Managers shall review each Party’s progress in meeting its objectives under the Project plan. Upon the request of AT&T’s Project Manager or on Supplier’s initiative, Supplier’s Project Manager will provide a written progress report identifying any circumstance (including but not limited to any discovery of ambiguity in any previously approved Specifications) coming to light since the previous such meeting which is likely to result in (i) a delay in Supplier’s ability to meet its due dates, or (ii) a proposed adjustment in projected amounts likely to be billed to AT&T for time and charges, or (iii) both such a proposed adjustment and such a delay. The report will provide Supplier’s best estimate of the length of such projected delay and the amount of such proposed adjustment to time and charges. To the extent that any such circumstance is shown to have resulted from a failure of AT&T (including any contractor or subcontractor of AT&T) to meet its obligations with respect to the Project, Supplier shall be granted an equitable extension of time and an equitable adjustment of the fixed or estimated fee to the extent necessary to remedy AT&T’s failure to meet its obligations. Supplier waives any and all claims for any such equitable extension or adjustment to the extent that it is based on any such circumstance in which Supplier failed to notify AT&T within one month (or otherwise specified in the Order) of Supplier’s recognition of the problem.

Each equitable extension of time and each equitable adjustment of any fixed or estimated fee shall be recorded in an amendment to the Order, which shall be prepared by the respective Project Managers of each Party. In addition, if AT&T desires to make a change in any previously approved Specifications, then AT&T shall deliver a change request to Supplier, and Supplier shall respond by providing a written change quote specifying any proposed adjustment to time and charges that Supplier believes necessary to effectuate the change. If AT&T accepts the proposed change, the Parties shall amend the applicable Order. For clarity, each such change shall become an amendment to the applicable Order when signed by the appropriate representative of each Party. If Program Material or Custom Software is not Delivered to AT&T (and installed, if applicable) as a result of factors under Supplier’s responsibility and control which includes Supplier’s Subcontractors and agents on or before the scheduled Critical Performance Milestone Date or Delivery Date therefore (as extended by any amendment), AT&T may, at its option, and subject to resolution of any related dispute in accordance with this Agreement’s dispute resolution process:

3.9

Acceptance or Rejection

After the Delivery of the Software, AT&T will start the Acceptance Test Period.

During the Acceptance Test Period, AT&T will notify Supplier promptly in writing of any Errors found by AT&T, and Supplier will promptly correct such Errors and deliver to AT&T the resulting corrections. AT&T shall have the right to test the Software after such corrected and/or completed Software is redelivered to AT&T, and such corrected and/or completed Software shall thereafter be subject to AT&T’s acceptance or rejection under this Section. The Acceptance Test Period shall be extended by the greater of either (i) [***] during which [***] of the Software, or (ii) when applicable, [***]. Any Errors in the Software that [***] with the Specifications shall be addressed in accordance with the appropriate resolution plan as set forth in Section 3.10.e. “Error Severity Level and Resolution Plan and Liquidated Damages”.

If the Software conforms with the terms of the applicable Order during the Acceptance Test Period, AT&T shall sign and deliver a copy of an Acceptance Letter substantially in the form of Appendix F, “Acceptance Letter”, to Supplier after the completion of the Acceptance Test Period. If AT&T fails to send an Acceptance Letter, or to inform Supplier of the rejection of the Software, within two (2) business days after the conclusion of the Acceptance Test Period, then Supplier shall promptly notify AT&T’s IT leadership of such failure via e-mail or other writing, with a copy to AT&T’s Project Manager. If neither AT&T’s IT leadership nor AT&T’s Project Manager responds via e-mail or other writing within [***] business days after such notice has been duly given, the Software shall be deemed to be Accepted as of the end of such Acceptance Test Period.

[***] any Software [***] during the Acceptance Test Period [***] prior to the date[***]. However, [***] the Acceptance Test Period shall [***].

Additional Amdocs procedures must be in compliance with AT&T’s current methodologies, tools and practices for testing defect tracking systems and quality initiative approaches, and in compliance with or have an approved exception to the Technology, Strategies, and Standards (TSS) and such other processes as AT&T may implement in the future or as AT&T may require outside of the Technology Development organization; in each case to the extent the same have been communicated to Supplier by AT&T in writing. If AT&T implements new processes or changes in existing processes that result in a significant increase in the cost to Supplier of providing the Services, the Parties shall evaluate such changes and the associated cost using the then-applicable Change Management Process. Supplier will utilize AT&T processes for required deliverables to AT&T, but may follow Supplier methodology and best practices for internal testing activities.

iii.

Supplier shall use its best efforts to correct any and all Errors in the Custom Software in accordance with the Error Severity Levels specified in the Order, and respond according to the escalation process, or processes, as agreed by the Parties and specified in the Order.

iv.

If Supplier fails to correct Errors in the Custom Software in accordance with the Error Severity Levels specified in the Order, then in accordance with the Service Level Agreement AT&T may convene a meeting of the Parties’ respective Project Managers to address the situation. Barring resolution of the matter by the Parties’ Project Managers, AT&T may escalate the matter per the Dispute Resolution provisions in this Agreement. Following such escalation, [***] in the Service Level Agreement [***]. No payments, progress or otherwise, made by AT&T to Supplier after any scheduled Delivery Date shall constitute a waiver of the right to receive Liquidated Damages. If AT&T elects to exercise its right to recover Liquidated Damages specified hereunder, Supplier shall provide a credit as shown in the column titled “Liquidated Damages” in the Service Level Agreement, and such credit(s) shall be assessed on a per Error basis up to the aggregate cap described in the applicable Order. Such Liquidated Damages shall be provided [***] of the Service Level Agreement[***].

Documentation Updates

As part of the OnGoing Support Services provided under an Order, and upon AT&T’s request, Supplier agrees to provide updates to Documentation furnished to AT&T hereunder which is related to the use and support of the Software.

Indemnity

Except as otherwise provided in the Section entitled “Infringement,” a Party, its Affiliates, and their agents and employees (collectively the “Indemnified Party”) shall have the right to request from the other Party or its Affiliates, agents, or employees (collectively the “Indemnifying Party”) defense and indemnification against any third party claims for Loss for the majority of which it believes that the Indemnifying Party is responsible alleging (1) injuries to persons, including death or disease; (2) damages to tangible property, including theft; and (3) failure to comply with Laws. The Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party for that pro rata portion of any third party claim for Loss (including Litigation Expense) resulting from an Indemnified Party’s fault (“Indemnified Party Fault”) as set forth herein.

Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section, Amdocs (as Indemnifying Party) also agrees to defend, indemnify, hold harmless and defend AT&T (as Indemnified Party) in the event that any federal, state or local governmental agency or any of Amdocs’ current or former applicants, agents, employees or Subcontractors, or agents or employees of Amdocs’ Subcontractors assert claims arising out of the employment relationship with Amdocs, or otherwise with respect to performance under this Agreement, including but not limited to claims, charges and actions arising under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, The Equal Pay Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended, The Rehabilitation Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, as amended, the Fair Labor

Standards Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, Workers’ Compensation laws, the National Labor Relations Act and any other applicable federal, state or local Laws. Amdocs’ duties to indemnify, hold harmless and defend AT&T under this Section include, but are not limited to, any liability, cause of action, lawsuit, penalty, claim or demand, or administrative proceeding in which AT&T or any other Indemnified Party is named as or alleged to be an “employer” or “joint employer” with Amdocs. The foregoing indemnity obligation shall be in addition to any other indemnity obligations of Amdocs set forth in this Agreement.

Upon receipt of a request from any Indemnified Party for defense and indemnification under this Section, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to determine whether, in its reasonable opinion, there is a reasonable likelihood that Indemnified Party Fault contributed to the majority of the Loss; should the Indemnifying Party make such a determination, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, subject to the Indemnified Party’s rights set forth below, to refuse to defend and indemnify the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall make such determination and notify the Indemnified Party if it refuses to defend and indemnify the Indemnified Party within [***] business days after its receipt of the Indemnified Party’s request to the Indemnifying Party for defense and indemnification; otherwise, it shall undertake the defense. Should the Indemnifying Party refuse to defend and indemnify the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right (i) to take such action as may be necessary to defend the Indemnified Party against the claim, including filing a third party action in that case against the Indemnifying Party for contribution or other legal or equitable rights or in an independent action against the Indemnifying Party seeking a determination that the Indemnifying Party was obligated to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Indemnified Party with respect to the claim and seeking any and all remedies to which the Indemnified Party might be entitled at law or in equity and, should the court or other tribunal hearing the case under either of those scenarios determine that Indemnified Party Fault did not contribute to a majority of the Loss, the Indemnifying Party shall promptly pay the Indemnified Party that pro-rata portion of the Indemnified Party’s Litigation Expense and any judgment against the Indemnified Party that is equivalent to the Indemnifying Party’s fault relative to the Indemnified Party Fault or (ii) to settle the case and, either prior to or after settlement, to seek judicial determination in that case or in a separately-filed case of the amount of the Indemnifying Party’s fault relative to the Indemnified Party Fault, and the Indemnifying Party shall be liable to the Indemnified Party for that portion of the Indemnified Party’s Litigation Expense and the settlement amount that is equivalent to the Indemnifying Party’s fault relative to the Indemnified Party Fault as determined by the court in either such scenario. If the Indemnified Party is required to take any action to seek judicial determination of the amount of the Indemnifying Party’s fault relative to the Indemnified Party Fault under this Agreement because of the Indemnifying Party’s failure to promptly assume the defense as set forth herein and is successful in obtaining a determination that the Indemnified Party Fault did not contribute to the majority of the Loss, then the Indemnified Party may also recover from the Indemnifying Party any reasonable attorney’s fees and other costs of obtaining that judicial determination.

Software and Professional Services Agreement

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither Party shall be required to indemnify the other Party from Losses resulting from claims or allegations of criminal conduct or misfeasance by the other Party.

The Indemnifying Party shall conduct the defense (employing counsel acceptable to the Indemnified Party), at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, against any claim, demand, suit or cause of action within the scope of paragraph i) or paragraph ii) above, whether or not litigation is actually commenced or the allegations are meritorious and, upon the Indemnified Party’s request, keep the Indemnified Party informed as to the progress of such defense. At its own option, the Indemnified Party may employ separate counsel, including in-house counsel, to conduct the Indemnified Party’s defense against such a claim. The Parties shall cooperate in the defense of any such claim. The Indemnifying Party may control the defense and settlement of such a claim, but if the settlement of a claim may have an adverse effect on any Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall not settle such claim without the consent of the Indemnified Party, and the Indemnified Party shall not unreasonably withhold or delay its consent. To the extent that the Indemnifying Party pays any part of a judgment, award or settlement with respect to the Loss and any other expenses related to the resolution of the Loss, including costs, interest, and reasonable Attorneys’ Fees, as a result of being self-insured or as a result of insurance coverage being insufficient to cover the amount of the judgment, award or settlement, upon final resolution of the claim, demand, suit or cause of action, the Indemnified Party shall reimburse the Indemnifying Party for the pro-rata portion of any such payment based on the Indemnified Party Fault relative to the Indemnifying Party’s fault. If any Indemnified Party is required to take any action to enforce its indemnity rights under this Agreement or to assume the defense of any claim, demand, suit or cause of action for which it is entitled to receive an indemnity under this Agreement because of the Indemnifying Party’s failure to promptly assume such defense, then the Indemnified Party may also recover from the Indemnifying Party any reasonable Attorney’s Fees and other costs of enforcing its indemnity rights or assuming such defense.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, the Parties intend that any amount for which any Indemnified Party might otherwise have an obligation of reimbursement to the Indemnifying Party for its pro-rata portion pursuant to this Section will be net of any insurance proceeds or other amounts paid by the Indemnifying Party’s insurance company or any other entity (“Insurance Proceeds”) that actually reduce the amount that the Indemnifying Party is required to pay on account of a Loss. Accordingly, the amount with respect to which the Indemnified Party is required to reimburse the Indemnifying Party its pro-rata portion will be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds theretofore actually paid on behalf of the Indemnifying Party in respect of the related Loss. If the Indemnifying Party receives a reimbursement required by this Section from the Indemnified Party in respect of the Indemnified Party’s pro-rata share of the amount of any Loss and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds or the benefit of any payments made for the Indemnifying Party or on its behalf by any insurance company or other entity with respect to such Loss, then the Indemnifying Party will pay to the Indemnified Party, within [***] days after such receipt of Insurance Proceeds or benefit of any payments, an amount equal to the excess of the reimbursement that the Indemnifying Party received from the

Software and Professional Services Agreement

Indemnified Party over the amount of the reimbursement that would have been due under this Section from the Indemnified Party if the Insurance Proceeds had been received, realized or recovered before the reimbursement was made by the Indemnified Party. An insurer that would otherwise be obligated to pay any amount as a result of a Loss shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, by virtue of the indemnification or reimbursement provisions hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being expressly understood and agreed that no insurer or any other third party shall be entitled to a “wind-fall” (i.e., a benefit they would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions) by virtue of the indemnification or reimbursement provisions hereof. The Indemnifying Party shall have a good faith obligation to seek to collect or recover any Insurance Proceeds that may in any way be available to reduce the amount of any Loss.

For purposes of this Section, “Loss” includes any liability, claim, demand, suit, cause of action, settlement payment, cost and expense, interest, award, judgment, damages (including punitive damages), diminution in value, liens, fines, fees, penalties, and Litigation Expense. “Litigation Expense” means any court filing fee, court cost, arbitration fee, and each other fee and cost of investigating or defending an indemnified claim or asserting any claim for indemnification or defense under this Agreement, including Attorney’s Fees, other professionals’ fees, and disbursements. “Attorney’s Fees” include a charge for the service of in-house counsel at the market rate for independent counsel of similar experience

Information

In connection with this Agreement, including Supplier’s performance of its obligations hereunder and AT&T’s receipt of Work, either Party may find it beneficial to disclose to the other Party (which may include permitting or enabling the other Party’s access to) certain of its Information. For the purpose of this clause, AT&T’s disclosure of Information to Supplier includes any Information that Supplier receives, observes, collects, handles, stores, or accesses, in any way, in connection with this Agreement. Information of a disclosing Party shall be deemed to be confidential or proprietary only if it is clearly marked or otherwise identified by the disclosing Party as being confidential or proprietary, provided that if it is orally or visually disclosed (including Information conveyed to an answering machine, voice mail box or similar medium), the disclosing Party shall designate it as confidential or proprietary at the time of such disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a disclosing Party shall not have any such obligation to so xxxx or identify, or to so designate, Information that the disclosing Party discloses to or is otherwise obtained by the other Party’s employees, contractors, or representatives (i) who are located on the disclosing Party’s premises; (ii) who access the disclosing Party’s systems; or (iii) who otherwise obtain AT&T Information and/or AT&T Customer Information in connection with this Agreement; any such Information so disclosed shall automatically be deemed to be confidential and proprietary. Additionally, the failure to xxxx or designate information as being confidential or proprietary will not waive the confidentiality where it is reasonably obvious, under the circumstances surrounding disclosure, that the Information is confidential or proprietary; any such Information so disclosed or obtained shall automatically be deemed to be confidential and proprietary. For greater certainty, Information provided by either Party to the other Party

Neither Party shall disclose Information under this Agreement that includes, in any form, any of the following: customer or employee personal information, credit card and credit related information, health or financial information, and/or authentication credentials.

With respect to the Information of the disclosing Party, the receiving Party shall:

hold all such Information in confidence with the same degree of care with which it protects its own confidential or proprietary Information, but with no less than reasonably prudent care;

ii.

restrict disclosure of such Information solely to its employees, contractors, and agents (and, in the case of AT&T, also to its Affiliates’ employees, contractors, and agents) with a need to know such Information, advise such persons of their confidentiality obligations with respect thereto, and ensure that such persons are bound by obligations of confidentiality reasonably comparable to those imposed in this Agreement;

iii.

use such Information only as needed to perform its obligations (and, if AT&T is the receiving Party, to receive the benefits of the Work provided) under this Agreement;

iv.

except as necessary under the immediately preceding clause (3), not copy, distribute, or otherwise use any such Information or allow anyone else to copy, distribute, or otherwise use such Information; and ensure that any and all copies bear the same notices or legends, if any, as the originals; and

upon the disclosing Party’s request, promptly return, or destroy all or any requested portion of the Information, including tangible and electronic copies, notes, summaries, extracts, mail or other communications, and provide written certification [***] business days to the disclosing Party that such Information has been returned or destroyed, provided that with respect to archival or back-up copies of Information that reside on the receiving Party’s systems, the receiving Party shall be deemed to have complied with its obligations under this clause (5) if it makes reasonable efforts to expunge from such systems, or to permanently render irretrievable, such copies.

Except for Customer Information, neither Party shall have any obligation to the other Party with respect to Information which:

at the time of disclosure was already known to the receiving Party free of any obligation to keep it confidential (as evidenced by the receiving Party’s written records prepared prior to such disclosure);

ii.

is or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act of the receiving Party (such obligations ceasing at the time such Information becomes publicly known);

If a receiving Party is required to provide Information of a disclosing Party to any court or government agency pursuant to a written court order, subpoena, regulatory demand, request under the National Labor Relations Act (an “NLRA Request”), or process of law, the receiving Party must, unless prohibited by applicable law, first provide the disclosing Party with prompt written notice of such requirement and reasonable cooperation to the disclosing Party should it seek protective arrangements for the production of such Information. The receiving Party will (i) take reasonable steps to limit any such provision of Information to the specific Information required by such court or agency, and (ii) continue to otherwise protect all Information disclosed in response to such order, subpoena, regulation, NLRA Request, or process of law.

A receiving Party’s obligations with respect to any particular Information of a disclosing Party shall remain in effect, including after the expiration or termination of this Agreement, until such time as it qualifies under one of the exceptions set forth in clause (c) above.

AT&T shall notify Supplier promptly of any Covered Claim; provided, however, that any delay in such notice shall not relieve Supplier of its obligations under this Section, except to the extent that Supplier can show such delay actually and materially prejudiced Supplier.

vi.

AT&T Data is the property of AT&T. To the extent needed to perfect AT&T’s ownership in AT&T Data, Supplier hereby assigns all right, title and interest in AT&T Data to AT&T. No transfer of title in AT&T Data is implied or shall occur under this Agreement. AT&T grants to Supplier and its approved Subcontractors a license to access, use, and copy the AT&T Data, with no right to grant sublicenses, solely for the performance of Supplier’s obligations during the Term of this Agreement and solely in compliance with AT&T’s privacy policies, including obligations relating to Customer Information as set forth in the Agreement.

Supplier shall deliver AT&T Derived Data in the format, on the media and in the timing prescribed by AT&T.

Utilization of Minority, Women, and Disabled Veteran Owned Business Enterprises

AT&T seeks to give minority-, women- and Disabled Veteran-owned businesses the maximum opportunity to participate in the performance of its contracts; current goals are MBE-15%, WBE-5%, and DVBE-1.5%. Supplier commits to making good faith efforts to achieve goals for the participation of MBE/WBE and DVBE firms (as defined in Subsection e of this Section below entitled “MBE/WBE/DVBE Termination”).

For the avoidance of doubt, these goals apply to all annual expenditures by any AT&T entity with Supplier. This includes all expenditures under all existing agreements between AT&T and Supplier.

In the event Supplier Diversity subcontracting results cannot be met by Supplier due to significant legal, regulatory or business relationship changes that have a direct and substantive negative impact on the attainment of the Diversity commitments herein, AT&T and Supplier will jointly review the results and known causes of the diversity subcontracting shortfall in order to reach a mutually acceptable Diversity subcontracting target. In the event the Parties cannot resolve the Diversity subcontracting targets, then the issue will be escalated as required through the following levels:

In the event of any such breach, AT&T may, at its option, pursue termination through the dispute resolution procedures of Section 4.5 upon thirty (30) days’ notice where such breach remains uncured by Supplier at the end of the notice period.

Work Done By Others

If any part of Supplier’s Work is dependent upon work performed by others or subcontracted consistent with the terms herein, Supplier shall inspect and promptly report to AT&T any known or discovered defect that renders such other work unsuitable for Supplier’s proper performance. Supplier’s failure to so report any such known or discovered defect to AT&T shall constitute approval of such other work as fit, proper and suitable for Supplier’s performance of its Services or provision of Material.

Where a portion of the Work is subcontracted, Supplier remains fully responsible for performance thereof and shall be responsible to AT&T for the acts and omissions of any Subcontractor and any temporary worker engaged by Supplier. Any use of a Subcontractor which is not an Affiliate of Supplier (but not of a Temporary Worker (as defined below)) must be either set forth in the applicable Order or otherwise communicated to AT&T before commencement of the Work. Supplier shall endeavor to obtain and maintain insurance for acts and omissions of Subcontractors in material conformity with the Insurance Section of this Agreement. Supplier agrees to execute a subcontract with every Subcontractor which materially conforms with the terms of this Agreement and, specifically, with the Insurance Section of this Agreement.

Software and Professional Services Agreement

The Parties agree that the Temporary Workers and Subcontractors engaged by Supplier may from time to time require access to the premises and facilities of AT&T for their participation in the performance of this Agreement and the Orders issued hereunder, and that if so requested by Supplier, AT&T shall deal with the personnel of the Subcontractors and with any reasonable requests of the Subcontractors, in all respects as if such personnel were the personnel, and such requests were the requests, of Supplier.

Supplier may, in the ordinary course of business, subcontract (i) for third party services or products that are not exclusively dedicated to AT&T and that do not include regular direct contact with AT&T or AT&T Affiliate personnel or the performance of services at AT&T sites or (ii) with temporary personnel firms for the provision of temporary contract labor (collectively, “Temporary Workers”); provided, that such Temporary Workers possess the training and experience, competence and skill to perform the work in a skilled and professional manner. AT&T shall have no approval right with respect to such Temporary Workers. If, however, AT&T expresses dissatisfaction with the services of a Temporary Worker, Supplier shall work in good faith to resolve AT&T’s concerns on a mutually acceptable basis and, at AT&T’s request, replace such Temporary Worker at no additional cost to AT&T.

Dispute Resolution

Informal Dispute Resolution.

Prior to the initiation of formal dispute resolution procedures with respect to any dispute, other than as provided in this Section, the Parties shall first attempt to resolve such dispute informally, as follows:

Initial Effort. The Parties agree that they shall attempt in good faith to resolve all disputes by informal discussion. In the event of a dispute that is not resolved or resolvable through informal discussion, either Party may refer the dispute for resolution to the senior corporate executives specified in Section 4.5a.v. below upon written notice to the other Party.

ii.

Escalation. Within seven (7) business days of a notice under Section 4.5a.i. above referring a dispute for resolution by senior corporate executives, the AT&T Contract Office and the Supplier Account Office will each prepare and provide to a Supplier Division President and to AT&T Global Supply Chain and AT&T Technology Development executive leadership, respectively, summaries of the relevant information and background of the dispute, along with any appropriate supporting documentation, for their review. The designated senior corporate executives will confer as often as they deem reasonably 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 designated senior corporate executives shall discuss the problem and negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve the dispute without the necessity of any formal proceeding. The specific format for the discussions will be left to the discretion of the designated senior corporate executives, but may include the preparation of agreed-upon statements of fact or written statements of position.

iii.

Provision of Information. During the course of negotiations under this Section, all reasonable requests made by one Party to another for non-privileged information, reasonably related to the dispute, will be honored in order that each of the Parties may be fully advised of the other’s position. All negotiation shall be strictly confidential and used solely for the purposes of settlement. Any materials prepared by one Party for these proceedings shall not be used as evidence by the other Party in any subsequent arbitration or litigation; provided, however, the underlying facts supporting such materials may be subject to discovery.

iv.

Prerequisite to Formal Proceedings. Formal proceedings for the resolution of a dispute may not be commenced until the earlier of: (i) the designated senior corporate executives under Section 4.5a.i. above concluding in good faith that amicable resolution through continued negotiation of the matter does not appear likely; or (ii) [***]days after the notice under Section 4.5a.i. above referring the dispute to designated senior corporate executives. The time periods specified in this Section 4.5a. shall not be construed to prevent a Party from instituting, and a Party is authorized to institute, formal proceedings earlier to (A) avoid the expiration of any applicable limitations period, (B) preserve a superior position with respect to other creditors, or (C) address a dispute to the extent subject to equitable or injunctive relief.

Proprietary and Confidential

This Agreement and information contained therein is not for use or disclosure outside of AT&T, its Affiliates, and third party

representatives, and Supplier except under written agreement by the contracting parties.

Additional Escalation. In addition to the dispute resolution provisions contained in this Section 4.5a., in connection with any exercise of its termination rights under Section 3.36, “Termination”, AT&T will, no less than [***] days prior to the effective date of such termination, but without extending any applicable time frames specified in the Agreement, provide Supplier with the right to have its Chief Executive Officer address the relevant issues with AT&T’s then-current Chief Strategy Officer/Division President – AT&T Technology and Operations.

Arbitration.

Except for a claim or controversy regarding the existence, validity or ownership of Intellectual Property Rights, and without limiting either Party’s right to seek appropriate injunctive relief in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or any breach thereof, which cannot be resolved using the procedures set forth above in Section 4.5 a. shall be finally resolved under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect.

ii.

The Arbitration shall take place in New York, New York, and shall apply the law of the State of Texas. The decision of the arbitrators shall be final and binding and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrators shall be instructed to state the reasons for their decisions in writing, including findings of fact and law. The arbitrators shall be bound by the warranties, limitations of liability and other provisions of this Agreement. Except with respect to the provisions of this Agreement that provide for injunctive relief rights, such arbitration shall be a precondition to any application by either Party to any court of competent jurisdiction.

iii.

Within twenty (20) business days after delivery of written notice (“Notice of Dispute”) by one Party to the other in accordance with this Section, the Parties each shall use good faith efforts to agree upon one (1) arbitrator. If the Parties are not able to agree upon one (1) arbitrator within such period of time, the Parties each shall within ten (10) business days: (i) appoint one (1) arbitrator who has at no time ever represented or acted on behalf of either of the Parties, and is not otherwise affiliated with or interested in either of the Parties and (ii) deliver written notice of the identity of such arbitrator and a copy of his or her written acceptance of such appointment to the other Party. If either Party fails or refuses to appoint an arbitrator within such ten (10) business day period, the single arbitrator appointed by the other Party shall decide alone the issues set out in the Notice of Dispute. Within ten (10) business days after such appointment and notice, such arbitrators shall appoint a third arbitrator. In the event that the two (2) arbitrators fail to appoint a third arbitrator within ten (10) business days of the appointment of the second arbitrator, either arbitrator or either Party may apply for the appointment of a third arbitrator to the American Arbitration Association.

All arbitrators selected pursuant to this Section shall be practicing attorneys with at least five (5) years of experience in technology law applicable to the Services. Any such appointment shall be binding upon the Parties. The Parties shall use best efforts to set the arbitration within sixty (60) days after selection of the arbitrator or arbitrators, as applicable, but in no event shall the arbitration be set more than ninety (90) days after selection of the arbitrator or arbitrators, as applicable. Discovery as permitted by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure then in effect will be allowed in connection with arbitration to the extent consistent with the purpose of the arbitration and as allowed by the arbitrator or arbitrators, as applicable. The decision or award of the arbitrator or the majority of the three arbitrators, as applicable, shall be rendered within fifteen (15) days after the conclusion of the hearing, shall be in writing, shall set forth the basis therefore, and shall be final, binding and nonappealable upon the Parties and may be enforced and executed upon in any court having jurisdiction over the Party against whom the enforcement of such decision or award is sought. Each Party shall bear its own arbitration costs and expenses and all other costs and expenses of the arbitration shall be divided equally between the Parties; provided, however, the arbitrator or arbitrators, as applicable, may modify the allocation of fees, costs and expenses in the award in those cases where fairness dictates other than such allocation between the Parties.

4.6

Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)

At the request of AT&T, the Parties shall exchange Orders, payments, acknowledgements, invoices, remittance notices, and other records (“Data”) electronically, in place of tangible documents. In such case, AT&T shall also designate whether the Parties shall exchange Data by direct electronic or computer systems communication between AT&T and Supplier, or indirectly through third party service providers with which either Party may contract or a single AT&T designated third party service provider with which each Party shall contract independently (“Provider”), to translate, forward and/or store such Data. If the Parties exchange Data directly, they agree to exchange it in accordance with the Telecommunications Industry Forum EDI Guidelines for use of American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Accredited Standards Committee X12 transaction sets, unless they mutually agree to a proprietary format or another standard such as Extensible Markup Language (XML).

The following additional conditions apply to any such exchanges:

Garbled Transmissions: If any Data is received in an unintelligible, electronically unreadable, or garbled form, the receiving Party shall promptly notify the originating Party (if identifiable from the received Data) in a reasonable manner. In the absence of such notice, the originating Party’s record of the contents of such Data shall control.

ii.

Signatures: Each Party will incorporate into each EDI transmission an electronic identification consisting of symbols or codes (“Signature”). Each Party agrees that any predetermined Signature of such Party included in or affixed to any EDI transmission shall be sufficient to verify that such Party originated, “signed” and “executed” such transmission. Neither Party shall disclose to any unauthorized person the Signatures of the Parties hereto.

Proprietary and Confidential

This Agreement and information contained therein is not for use or disclosure outside of AT&T, its Affiliates, and third party

representatives, and Supplier except under written agreement by the contracting parties.

iii.

Statute of Frauds: The Parties expressly agree that all Data transmitted pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to be a “writing” or “in writing” for purposes of Section 2-201 of the Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) or any other applicable Law requiring that certain agreements be in writing and signed by the party to be bound thereby. Any such Data containing or having affixed to it a Signature shall be deemed for all purposes: (i) to have been “signed” and “executed”; and (ii) to constitute an “original” when printed from electronic files or records established and maintained in the normal course of business.

iv.

Method of Exchange: Each Party shall be responsible for its own costs to provide and maintain the equipment, software and services necessary to effectively and reliably transmit and receive Data, and the associated charges of any Provider with which it contracts. Supplier shall be solely responsible for the cost of storing its information or Data on a Provider’s computer network, which may be retrieved by AT&T at no additional charge to AT&T by Supplier. Either Party may change a Provider upon [***] days’ prior written notice to the other Party, except that if a single Provider for both Parties has been designated by AT&T, then AT&T may change the Provider upon [***] days’ prior written notice to Supplier.

Warranty of Data Integrity: Supplier represents and warrants that Data and/or information either transmitted to AT&T by Supplier or stored by Supplier on a Provider’s network for access by AT&T a) does not knowingly or intentionally contain any Harmful Code or Vulnerability, and b) does not knowingly or intentionally infringe or violate any third party’s copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other proprietary rights or rights of publicity or privacy.

4.7

Entry on AT&T Property

If the performance of the Services provided hereunder requires Supplier’s entry upon property owned or controlled by AT&T, Supplier is hereby notified that AT&T presumes for safety planning purposes that all tile and sheet/rolled vinyl flooring contains asbestos unless verified otherwise through sampling of the material and that AT&T-owned buildings constructed prior to 1981 may contain other asbestos containing materials (“ACM”) and/or presumed asbestos containing materials (“PACM”). All AT&T buildings, regardless of age, may also contain both natural and manmade conditions and/or activities involving risk of harm. AT&T has not inspected such property for the purposes of this Agreement and has not taken any efforts to discover or make safe dangerous conditions or activities for the purpose of Supplier’s performance of Services.

If the performance of the Services provided hereunder requires disturbance of ACM/PACM other than flooring material (surfacing/fireproofing coatings, thermal system insulation (TSI) or other suspect materials), then Supplier must contact the project manager and request records to determine the presence, location and quantity of ACM/PACM in or adjacent to

Proprietary and Confidential

representatives, and Supplier except under written agreement by the contracting parties.

Software and Professional Services Agreement

which Supplier’s employees may reasonably be expected to work. At AT&T’s discretion, the project manager may supply records that indicate which areas, if any, of the premises contain ACM. If AT&T does not provide records or does not know if the premises contain ACM, the material will be presumed to be asbestos containing until proven otherwise. If records regarding the presence, location, and quantity of ACM do not exist, the project manager may arrange for a survey of materials that may be disturbed to determine the presence, location, and quantity of asbestos. If AT&T is aware that ACM or PACM is indicated in materials that may be disturbed, AT&T will advise Supplier of the presence, location and quantity of all known ACM and/or PACM at the work site. Supplier will have no obligation to provide Services in areas of premises containing ACM and/or PACM if its work could potentially disturb the ACM/PACM, except work requiring the drilling or cutting/lifting of asbestos containing flooring in accordance with paragraph e below. Supplier will not be liable for any liquidated damages related to any delay associated with AT&T’s failure or delay in providing Supplier with information related to the presence, location and quantity of ACM/PACM.

If ACM or PACM is indicated on AT&T’s premises, it is AT&T’s responsibility to assure that the ACM/PACM does not present a hazard while Supplier conducts work operations on the premises. If it is determined that Supplier’s work, other than drilling or cutting/lifting of asbestos-containing flooring, will potentially disturb ACM/PACM, releasing asbestos fibers into the air, AT&T must have a contractor meeting the requirements of applicable Laws remove the asbestos prior to Supplier’s performing work in the area.

Upon entering AT&T’s premises, Supplier shall be responsible for inspecting the Services site for visually obvious unsafe conditions and taking the necessary safety precautions for protection of Supplier, its employees, and its agents and ensuring a safe place for performance of the Services. As a material condition of this Agreement, Supplier, for itself and its employees and agents, assumes all risk of visually obvious dangers associated with the property, and responsibility for the following OSHA notice requirements:

informing its employees of the information provided by the AT&T Asbestos Records Contact regarding the presence, location and quantity of ACM/PACM present in the property in or adjacent to which Supplier’s employees may reasonably be expected to work and the precautions to be taken to reasonably insure that airborne ACM/PACM is kept well below permissible exposure levels; and

ii.

informing the appropriate AT&T project manager and other employers of employees at the property of the presence, location and quantity of any newly discovered ACM/PACM identified by Supplier within twenty-four (24) hours of its discovery.

Should Services require the drilling or cutting/lifting of presumed asbestos containing/asbestos-containing flooring (e.g., floor tile or sheet rolled goods such as linoleum), Supplier agrees that its employees and Subcontractors performing such drilling or cutting/lifting will use AT&T’s Technical Practice 76300 (section G) Procedure for Drilling or Cutting/Lifting Asbestos-Containing/Presumed Asbestos Containing Flooring (“AT&T’s Procedure”) which has a Negative Exposure Assessment when drilling or cutting/lifting such flooring and that only employees and Subcontractors who have received the annual training required to perform AT&T’s Procedure will perform such drilling or cutting/lifting procedures.

Proprietary and Confidential

This Agreement and information contained therein is not for use or disclosure outside of AT&T, its Affiliates, and third party

representatives, and Supplier except under written agreement by the contracting parties.

Software and Professional Services Agreement

In accordance with AT&T’s Procedure, AT&T shall either supply Supplier written documentation verifying the absence of ACM in states where asbestos disturbance is not allowed and Supplier shall proceed with drilling or cutting/lifting when the cuts or drills will be in non-asbestos containing floors.

ii.

If no information regarding asbestos content of the flooring is available, in accordance with AT&T’s Procedure, the AT&T project manager will arrange for either 1) a licensed asbestos building inspector to obtain a sample of the floor to determine asbestos content or lack thereof; or 2) a licensed asbestos abatement contractor to drill the holes or remove the asbestos-containing materials and properly dispose of the debris.

iii.

Supplier will not be liable for any liquidated damages related to any delay associated with AT&T’s failure or delay in providing Supplier with the information, documentation or work by a licensed asbestos contractor pursuant to this sub-paragraph (e).

Supplier hereby releases AT&T from any and all claims or causes of action in connection with the responsibilities assumed by Supplier in Subsections d.i, d.ii., and e. of this Section above, and agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend AT&T, its Affiliates and its and their employees, agents, officers, and directors against any Loss arising therefrom or in connection therewith, in accordance with the Section of this Agreement entitled “Indemnity.”

If in Supplier’s judgment, the Services, other than Services requiring the drilling or cutting/lifting of asbestos-containing flooring, should not proceed due to the presence of ACM/PACM and/or any other unsafe condition, the correction of which may require changes or alterations in AT&T’s operations or property, Supplier shall notify the AT&T project manager immediately, and shall suspend the Services until Supplier and AT&T agree on the corrections or alterations necessary for the safe performance of the Services. Supplier will not be liable for any liquidated damages related to any delay associated with such a suspension.

representatives, and Supplier except under written agreement by the contracting parties.

Software and Professional Services Agreement

During the term of the applicable Order and, if Software fails to operate in conformance with the Specifications, or if the following specified errors (“Error”) occur, Supplier agrees to respond and perform as follows:


1	FATAL: Reported problems preventing all useful work from being done or potential data loss or corruption, or Software functionality is inoperative; inability to use has a critical impact to AT&T’s operations.	• Acknowledgment • Work Around, temporary fix • Final fix, update, or new release • Communications	• [*] • [] • [] • [*]

2	SEVERE IMPACT: Problems disable major functions required to do productive work or Software is partially inoperative and is considered as severely restrictive by AT&T.	• Acknowledgment • Work around, temporary fix • Final fix, update, or new release • Communications	• [*] • [] • [] • [*]

3	DEGRADED OPERATIONS: Reported problems disabling specific non-essential functions; Error condition is not critical to continuing operation and/or AT&T has determined a work-around for the Error condition.	• Acknowledgment • Work around, temporary fix • Final fix, update, or new release • Communications	• [*] • [] • [] • [*]

4	MINIMAL IMPACT: Any deviation from Specifications not otherwise included in a Severity 1, 2, or 3 category.	• Acknowledgment • Work around, temporary fix • Final Fix, update, or new release • Communications	• [*] • [] • [] • [*]

In the case of a FATAL or SEVERE IMPACT Error condition, Supplier shall use its best efforts to acknowledge notification of such Error condition within the time frames indicated.

Supplier shall correct any and all Errors in the Software in accordance with Error Severity Levels specified above. In addition, at any time during the Error correction or technical support process, AT&T may invoke the below listed escalation procedure:

Supplier’s escalation process is to ensure that when a problem is not being resolved in a satisfactory manner, (i) both AT&T and Supplier have a common perception of the nature and criticality of the problem, (ii) the visibility of the problem is raised within Supplier’s organization, and (iii) appropriate Supplier resources are allocated toward solving the problem.

Proprietary and Confidential

This Agreement and information contained therein is not for use or disclosure outside of AT&T, its Affiliates, and third party

representatives, and Supplier except under written agreement by the contracting parties.

Software and Professional Services Agreement

ii.

The following escalation process may be invoked by AT&T when an Error, defect, non-conformity or technical support issue has been reported to Supplier, the Error substantially affects AT&T’s use of the Software, and Supplier has not yet provided a patch or bypass around the Error.

iii.

The escalation processes can be initiated by contacting the next higher management level within Supplier’s organization. Such Supplier designate will work with AT&T’s designated contact and management to bring a satisfactory solution to the situation. The effort will be focused on developing an action plan and coordinating whatever Supplier resources are required to meet AT&T’s needs as rapidly as possible, within the policy stated above.

iv.

75+		10% of fees under the Order

The foregoing Liquidated Damages shall be calculated cumulatively and shall be capped at a total of thirty percent (30%) of the fees under the Order. AT&T’s taking of Liquidated Damages for failure to meet a Delivery Date shall not preclude AT&T from claiming actual damages in excess of the Liquidated Damages; provided, however, that the amount of Liquidated Damages taken by AT&T shall be deducted from any damages awarded to AT&T. Liquidated Damages taken by AT&T for failure to meet a Delivery Date shall be excluded from the limitations of liability set forth in the Agreement.

Upon discovery of anything indicating a reasonable certainty that Software and/or Services will not be delivered by the scheduled Delivery Date, Supplier shall notify AT&T and provide the estimated length of delay. The Parties shall work jointly toward resolving the delayed delivery.

No payments, progress or otherwise, made by AT&T to Supplier after any scheduled Delivery Date shall constitute a waiver of Liquidated Damages. Delivery Dates shall be extended as and to the extent Supplier is unable to meet the original Delivery Date due to causes outside of Supplier’s control. Such extension shall be proportionate to the delay caused by factors outside Supplier’s control.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Master Services Agreement, in the event of Supplier’s failure to meet a Delivery Date as defined in the Order (as it may have been extended in accordance with the terms as set forth herein) AT&T shall be entitled to Liquidated Damages according to the following schedule:

Appendix H – Vendor Expense Policy

1.0

General

The AT&T Vendor Expense Policy (VEP) provides guidelines to be followed by all vendors of AT&T in requesting reimbursement for business travel, meals and other business related expense. Expenses outside this policy are not reimbursable.

The following principles apply to requests for expense reimbursement:

When spending money that is to be reimbursed, vendors must ensure that an AT&T Company (“Company”) receives proper value in return.

Personal expenditures reported for reimbursement should be billed exactly as they were incurred. The use of averages for any type expenditure or combination of expenditures is not permitted except as specifically provided or documented in a contract.

Every vendor and AT&T employee who certifies or approves the correctness of any voucher or xxxx should have reasonable knowledge the expense and amounts are proper and reasonable. In the absence of the adoption of such policy, or existing contractual agreements, these guidelines are considered the minimum requirements for requesting reimbursement of Company funds.

Deviations from this VEP must be approved in writing by the sponsoring Senior Manager or Officer of an AT&T Company.

Receipts will be requested and reviewed for any unusual or out of the ordinary expenses or where the approver cannot make a reasonable determination of the propriety of the invoice without a receipt.

Responsibilities

2.1

Vendor’s Responsibility

Vendors are responsible for ensuring clarification of any questions from sponsoring AT&T managers relative to reimbursable business expenses.

It is mandatory that financial transactions are recorded in a timely manner.

Out-of-pocket business expense(s) for vendors that are not submitted for reimbursement within 90 calendar days from the date incurred are considered non-reimbursable.

Company managers who are responsible for approving reimbursable expenses of vendors should ensure they are submitted and approved in a timely manner.

3.0

Travel Policy

Vendors must first consider the feasibility of using videoconferencing or teleconferencing as an alternative to travel. Travel that is to be reimbursed by AT&T should be incurred only as necessary and pre-approved by AT&T (unless otherwise authorized in the agreement).

AT&T reserves the right to dispute any expense submittal and if not verifiable as valid may reject reimbursement. Reimbursements will be made to vendor only after expenses are verified as valid.

3.1

Travel Authorization

Travel requiring overnight stays must be pre-approved by the sponsoring AT&T 3rd Level Manager or above and should be approved only if it is necessary for the vendor to travel to perform required work.

3.2

Travel Reservations

Vendors are expected to procure the most cost efficient travel arrangements, preferably equivalent to the AT&T discount rate. AT&T does not reimburse for travel purchased with prepaid air passes.

3.3

Travel Expense Reimbursement

Vendor travel expenses incurred for company business are reimbursable only as specified in these guidelines. Travel expenses may include the following:

•

Transportation (airfare or other commercial transportation, car rental, personal auto mileage, taxi and shuttle service)

•

Meals and lodging

•

•

Tips/xxxxxx service (if necessary and reasonable)

Proprietary and Confidential

This Agreement and information contained therein is not for use or disclosure outside of AT&T, its Affiliates, and third party

Software and Professional Services Agreement

•

Vendors who stay with friends or relatives or other vendor employees while on a Company business trip will NOT be reimbursed for lodging, nor will they be reimbursed for expenditures made to reciprocate their hospitality by buying groceries, being host at a restaurant, etc.

The expense must be ordinary and necessary, not lavish or extravagant, in the judgment of the AT&T sponsoring management. Any reimbursement request must be for actual expenditures only.

3.4

Air Travel Arrangements

Vendors must select lowest logical coach airfare (fares available in the market at the time of booking, preferably well in advance of trip to attain lowest possible airfare). Vendors must consider non-refundable fares, routing requiring one additional interim stop in each direction, or an alternate flight within 2 hours of the original departure and arrival time. First class bookings are not reimbursable. Vendors can request business class when a single segment of flight time (“in air time” excluding stops, layovers and ground time) is greater than 8 continuous hours providing the relevant manager pre-approves.

3.5

Hotel Arrangements

AT&T has established Market-Based Room Rate Guidelines for vendors to reference when making hotel reservations in the United States. Vendors should contact their AT&T sponsoring manager to receive guidance for hotel rates when traveling in the U.S. Sponsoring managers may access Travel Central to obtain information on the AT&T U.S. Market Guidelines. Vendors traveling outside the U.S. should reference the GSA, Government Per Diem as a guide: xxxxx://xxxxxxx.xxxxx.xxx/xxx000/xxx_xxxx.xxx. Non-US vendors may use these dollar per diems as a guide, but any locally specified per diems will take precedence. Vendors are expected to abide by these guidelines when making hotel arrangements or use specified AT&T preferred hotels/maximum location rates or reasonably priced hotels outside of the U.S. The AT&T sponsoring manager can advise which hotel/max rate to use if there is a hotel in the location concerned. AT&T will only reimburse vendors up to the established room rate guideline/AT&T preferred hotel rate in each market, or for actual hotel lodging charges incurred, whichever is less.

There must be a strong business justification for incurring any cost for internet access, and a request for reimbursement must be accompanied by a detailed explanation regarding reason for charge.

Note: Vendors must indicate the number of room nights on the transaction line when invoicing for reimbursement of hotel expenses. Copies of all hotel bills must be made available for any invoice containing lodging charges.

3.6

Ground Transportation

While away from their home location overnight, vendors are expected to utilize rapid transit or local shuttle service. If the hotel provides a complimentary shuttle, vendors are to use this service before paying for transportation. If complimentary service is not provided a taxi or other local transportation is reimbursable as a business expense. Tips provided to taxi drivers cannot exceed 15% of the value of the total fare.

Proprietary and Confidential

This Agreement and information contained therein is not for use or disclosure outside of AT&T, its Affiliates, and third party

representatives, and Supplier except under written agreement by the contracting parties.

Software and Professional Services Agreement

A rental car is appropriate when the anticipated business cost is less than that of other available public transportation. Except to the extent necessary to accommodate several travelers and/or luggage requirements, vendors will not be reimbursed for automobile rentals other than economy or mid-sized/intermediate models.

“Loss Damage Waiver” and “Extended Liability Coverage” are not considered reimbursable in the US. Prepaid fuel or refueling charges at the time of return are not reimbursable. Rental cars should be refueled before returning to the rental company, since gas purchased through the rental company carries an expensive refueling service charge.

Purpose of the trip

Parking

If airport parking is necessary, vendors must use long term parking facilities. Additional costs for short term, valet or covered parking are not reimbursable.

3.9

Entertainment

Entertainment expense is not reimbursable to vendors. Entertainment includes meal expense involving AT&T personnel, golf fees, tickets to events and related incidental expenses. Hotel charges for a pay-per-view movie, individual sightseeing tours, or other individual activities (i.e., golf, sporting event, movie, etc.) are not reimbursable.

3.10

Laundry and Cleaning

is independently developed by an employee, contractor or agent of the Receiving Party or another party not associated with the Project and who did not have any direct or indirect access to the Information; or

is approved for release by written authorization by AT&T; or

it is required to disclose pursuant to an order of a duly empowered government agency or a court of competent jurisdiction, provided due notice and an adequate opportunity to intervene is given to AT&T, unless such notice is prohibited by such order.

The receiving party agrees to hold in confidence the disclosing party’s Proprietary Information, and to refrain from copying, distributing, disseminating or otherwise disclosing such Proprietary Information to anyone, other than to those of its employees who have a need to know such Proprietary Information for purposes of the Project. AMDOCS’ employees are deemed to include employees of its affiliates who will be involved in the Project.

The receiving party undertakes not to use the Proprietary Information of the disclosing party for any purposes other than the Project, and not to sell, grant, make available to, or otherwise allow the use of the disclosing party’s Proprietary Information by any third party, directly or indirectly, except as expressly permitted herein.

In addition, COMPANY undertakes not to use, directly or indirectly, the AMDOCS Proprietary Information or any derivatives thereof in any form (e.g., reports and analyses) in the development support, and/or sale of software systems having the same or similar functions as the Ensemble, for itself or for a third party.

5.	Upon the termination and/or expiration of this Agreement for any reason and/or upon the conclusion of the Project and/or at the request of the disclosing party, the receiving party shall:

return to the disclosing party any document or other material in tangible form in its possession being part of the Proprietary Information of the disclosing party, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing between the parties; and/or

Disclosure of the disclosing party’s Proprietary Information to the receiving party may be made in writing or any tangible form, electronically, or occur by demonstration of any product including but not limited to the Amdocs Ensemble software. Proprietary Information disclosed in tangible or electronic form shall be marked by the disclosing party as proprietary and/or confidential information of such party.

Disclosure of the disclosing party’s Proprietary Information to the receiving party shall in no way serve to create, on the part of the receiving party, a license to use, or any proprietary right in, the disclosing party’s Proprietary Information or in any other proprietary product, trademark, copyright or other right of the disclosing party.

8.	The confidentiality obligations of the receiving party regarding the disclosing party’s Proprietary Information shall not apply to such Proprietary Information which:

becomes public domain without fault on the part of the receiving party;

is lawfully obtained from a source other than the disclosing party, free of any obligation to keep it confidential;

is expressly released in writing from such obligations by the party that owns or has the rights to such Proprietary Information; or

is required to be disclosed pursuant to law, regulation, judicial or administrative order, or request by a governmental or other entity authorized by law to make such request; provided, however, that the receiving party so required to disclose shall first notify the disclosing party to enable it to seek relief from such requirement, and render reasonable assistance requested by the disclosing party (at the disclosing party’s expense) in connection therewith.

Any use by the receiving party of the disclosing party’s Proprietary Information permitted under this Agreement is conditioned upon the receiving party first taking the safeguards and measures required to secure the confidentiality of such Proprietary Information. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party shall draw to the attention of its employees, including those employees of the affiliates referred to in Section 2 above, who shall have access to the Proprietary Information of the other party, all the obligations concerning such Proprietary Information contained in this Agreement

Each party acknowledges that its breach of this Agreement may cause the other party extensive and irreparable harm and damage, and agrees that the other party shall be entitled to injunctive relief to prevent use or disclosure of its Proprietary Information not authorized by this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy available to the other party under applicable law.

12.	This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous oral or written representation with regard to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement may not be modified except by a written instrument signed by both parties.

13.

If, however, any provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the entire Agreement, but rather the entire Agreement shall be construed as if not containing the particular invalid or unenforceable provision or provisions, and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced accordingly. In addition, the parties agree to cooperate to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision(s) with valid and enforceable provision(s) which will achieve the same result (to the maximum legal extent) as the provision(s) determined to be invalid or unenforceable.

14.	This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to such laws’ provisions regarding conflicts of law.

Appendix J—Disaster Recovery Plan (“DRP”) and Business Continuity Plan (“BCP”)

Amdocs BCP/DRP Summary

Amdocs is a global company with development centers located around the world. At Amdocs, we are totally committed to providing the best possible products and services to our customers, and our commitment includes the ability to continue providing those products and services in the event of a major catastrophe at one of our development centers.

Our global presence inherently supports the BCP concept. All BCP/DRP operations world-wide are coordinated by a dedicated corporate BCP/DRP team. Since all of our development centers are interconnected, in the event of a major catastrophe, employees from damaged locations can relocate to alternate Amdocs facilities—in the same region or another region, depending on the situation—to continue supporting customer operations.

Our DRP strategy is based on ongoing replication of data to other Amdocs facilities, allowing full recovery of data from damaged sites and ensuring our capability to fully restore the damaged environment. Amdocs data centers are remotely monitored 24 x 7 x 365 and supported by technical professionals spread across the globe. In addition to DRP preparations, backups are performed on a daily basis, and tapes are tested and shipped to off-site storage facilities on a regular basis.

Our BCP/DRP plans are regularly tested and updated as needed to comply with changes in technologies and business needs.

The size of the company and the level of expertise across sites allow Amdocs, in case of a catastrophic event, to send development, operational, and technical reinforcement teams to customer sites to provide support and resolve issues following a disaster. In addition, other professional groups can be sent to assist and reinforce disaster recovery personnel. This allows Amdocs to provide ongoing support to our customers in a disaster situation until normal operations can resume.

Below are the alternate BCP/DRP destinations for the Amdocs sites currently supporting AT&T.
