Following expiration of the warranty period as defined in Section 7, Licensee

identified in an Attachment.
6. INDEMNIFICATION
6.1. Subject to Section 6.2, if one party promptly notifies the other party
in writing of a third-party claim against it, the other party shall indemnify
the notifying party against all claims, liabilities, and costs, including
reasonable attorneys' fees reasonably incurred in the defense of any claim
brought against the notifying party by third parties alleging that the
notifying party's Use of the Software, Tools and Documentation or data or
other information supplied by the other party infringes or misappropriates:
(i) any United States patent; or (ii) a United States copyright; or (iii)
trade secret rights, provided that, the notifying party promptly notifies the
other party in writing of any such claim and the other party is permitted to
control fully the defense and any settlement of such claim. The notifying
party shall cooperate fully in the defense and may appear, at its own
expense, through counsel reasonably acceptable to the other party. The other
party may, in its sole discretion, settle any such claim on a basis requiring
FirePond to substitute for the Software, Tools and Documentation alternative
substantially equivalent non-infringing programs and supporting
documentation. The other party alone shall be responsible for taking such
actions which it determines are reasonably necessary or desirable in its sole
discretion in connection with any infringement or alleged infringement by a
third party of any portion of the Software, Tools and Documentation, provided
that should the software, Tools, or Documentation as delivered by licensee
become the subject of an infringement claim: Firepond at its sold expense
either (i) procure for licensee the right to continue to use the Software,
Tools, and Documentation as contemplated hereunder, or (ii) modify the
Software, Tools, or Documentation to eliminate any infringement claim,
provided that the Software and Tools' performance must remain the same as
provided for in the specifications, or (iii) replace the Software and Tools
with an equally suitable, compatible, and functionally equivalent
non-infringing product at no additional charge to licensee. If none of these
options are reasonably available to Firepond after executing its best efforts
to implement such options, then Firepond shall accept return of the Software,
Tools, and Documentation at Firepond's sole cost and expense and FirePond
shall pay to Licensee up to $3,500,000 as liquidated damages, as amortized
over five year useful life measured from the date of delivery..
6.2. FirePond makes no representation with respect to the possibility of
infringement if the claim of infringement is caused by: (1) Licensee's, Named
User's or Concurrent User's misuse or modification of Software, Tools and/or
Documentation; (2) Licensee's, Named User's or Concurrent User's failure to
use corrections or enhancements made available by FirePond; (3) Licensee's,
Named User's or Concurrent User's use of Software, Tools and/or Documentation
in combination with any product or information not owned or developed by
FirePond; or (4) Licensee's distribution, marketing or use for the benefit of
third parties other than Named Users or Concurrent Users of Software, Tools
and/or Documentation or distribution, marketing or use for the benefit of
third parties.
6.3. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 6 STATE THE SOLE, EXCLUSIVE, AND ENTIRE
LIABILITY OF FIREPOND AND ITS LICENSORS TO LICENSEE AND LICENSEE'S SOLE
REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO THE INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
RIGHTS.
7. WARRANTY
7.1. FirePond warrants that the Software and Tools will as delivered
materially conform to the functional specifications contained in the
Documentation and Exhibit B-2 ("Small Group Track") for 90 days following
execution of this Agreement. Services to be provided by FirePond during the

materially free of all viruses, bombs and other self enacting devices that
could impair the functionality of the Software or Tools.
7.2. Should any component of the Software or Tools fail to conform materially

compliance with the functional specifications or to replace the defective
component.
FirePond shall use reasonable commercial efforts to correct the defect by
bringing the performance of the Software into material compliance with the
functional specifications or to replace the defective component within thirty
(30) days or such longer period as is reasonable in the circumstances where
FirePond proceeds with all due diligence to cure such defect. In the event
FirePond is unable to correct or replace such defect within the stated time
period, Licensee shall refund the then present value of such Software to
Licensee, as amortized over a five (5) year useful life measured from the
date of delivery.
7.3. FirePond does not warrant that the Software or Tools will operate
uninterrupted nor that they will be free from minor defects or errors which
do not materially affect such performance nor that the applications contained

times and date and time ranges prior to the year 2000; (b) utilize data
structures (databases, data files, etc.) which accommodate and provide
4-digit date century recognition; (c) operate in a manner which treats the

material functional or data abnormality; and (d) manage and manipulate data
involving the transition of dates from 1999 to 2000 without material
functional or data abnormality; (ii) the Software and Tools as delivered will

representations and warranties provided herein shall not be limited to, and
shall survive for so long as maintenance services are purchased. FirePond
shall be responsible for and shall indemnify Licensee from and against all
losses and damages of any kind or nature incurred by Licensee up to the
amount of license fees paid hereunder as a result of any breach of the
foregoing representations and warranties.

of FirePond. With respect to damage to tangible property, FirePond will not
be responsible in any amount in excess of the amount by which such damage is
paid by FirePond's liability insurance.
8.2. ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY HEREIN NOTWITHSTANDING, UNDER NO CIR-CUMSTANCES
SHALL FIREPOND AND ITS LICENSORS BE LIABLE TO LICENSEE OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR
ENTITY FOR SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CON-SEQUENTIAL, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, LOSS OF

Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and that Licensee shall
guaranty the performance of its assignee and shall remain liable for all
obligations hereunder.

default of any provision of this Agreement for any failure in performance
resulting from acts or events beyond the reasonable control of FirePond or
Licensee.
11.2. No Waiver. If either party should waive any breach of any provision of
this Agreement, it shall not thereby be deemed to have waived any preceding
or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision hereof.
11.3. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
unenforceable, this Agreement shall be construed without such provision.
11.4. Agreement Binding/Entire Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding

Attachment hereto shall prevail over any additional, conflicting, or
inconsistent terms and conditions which may appear on any purchase order or
other document furnished by Licensee to FirePond.

confirmation of a panel of arbitrators, and for the right of FirePond to bring
suit on an open account for any payments due FirePond hereunder, (after
expiration of the informal dispute resolution as identified in Section 3.3) any
controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be
settled by arbitration in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in accordance with the
Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, and
judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court

doing. Licensee shall indemnify FirePond against any claims, losses,
liability, or damages suffered or incurred by FirePond arising out of or
related to any violation by Licensee of any United States or any foreign laws
or regulations relative to the Licensee or Named User use, export, or
re-export of Software, Tools or Documentation to or within any country
outside the United States. Licensee shall ensure that each Named User
complies with United States export rules and regulations as they relate to
Software.
13.2. Licensee shall cooperate with FirePond to protect FirePond's
intellectual property rights in foreign jurisdictions to which Software,
Tools or Documentation are used or distributed as reasonably requested by
FirePond.
13.3. FirePond may require changes in the agreement set forth in Exhibit A
from time to time or with respect to use in a particular country.
13.4 The Licensee acknowledges that the Statement of Direction is an
expression of intent for further development for the health care industry.
Licensee agrees that it has not relied on the potential development in
executing this Agreement and further agrees that the availability of said
development shall not affect Licensee's payment obligation of the license fee
set forth in the License Fee Attachment.
14. ESCROW
FirePond warrants that the source code for the Software as it is or as it
becomes available, will be deposited in an escrow account maintained at Data
Securities International, Inc. (the "Escrow Agent"). FirePond will from time to
time deposit in an escrow account copies of all new releases of the source code
for the Software.
FirePond or FirePond's trustee in bankruptcy shall authorize the Escrow Agent to
make and release a copy of the source code to Licensee upon the occurrence of
any of the following events:
(a) FirePond has ceased its ongoing business operations relating to the
licensing of software; or
(b) FirePond fails to carry out the material maintenance obligations imposed
on it pursuant to this Agreement after reasonable opportunity has been
provided to FirePond to perform such obligations; or
(c) The existence of any one or more of the following circumstances, if
uncorrected for more than ninety (90) days: (i) entry of an order of
relief under Title 11 of the United States Code; the making by FirePond of
the general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (ii) the appointment
of a general receiver or trustee in the bankruptcy of FirePond's business
or property; or (iii) action by FirePond under any state insolvency or
similar law for the purpose of bankruptcy, reorganization or liquidation.
The occurrence of the described events shall not constitute reason for the
release of the source code if, within the specified ninety (90) day
period, FirePond (including its receiver or trustee in bankruptcy)
provides to Licensee's adequate assurances, reasonably acceptable to
Licensee, of its continuing ability and willingness to fulfill all of its
maintenance and support obligations.
In the event of release under this Agreement, Licensee agrees that it will treat
and preserve the source code of the Software as a trade secret of FirePond in
accordance with the same precautions adopted by Licensee to safeguard its own
trade secrets against unauthorized use and disclosure. Release under this
provision shall not extend Licensee any greater rights or lesser obligations
than are otherwise provided or imposed under this Agreement.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned, intending to be legally bound, have duly
executed this Agreement to become effective as of the date first above written.
