perpetual and irrevocable (except as otherwise specified herein) license, under the Licensed IP, to use, support and operate Purchased Phones solely in providing the Services in the Territory to Customers (the “Services Support License”) and; provided, however, that the Services Support License shall become non-exclusive in the event that either (i) Aequus’s rights under the Reseller Agreement which is a Related Document become non-exclusive or (ii) such Reseller Agreement terminates; and

2.2 Sub-licenses. Aequus may grant to Authorized Sub-Licensees one or more sub-licenses of all or any part of the licensed rights exercisable by it hereunder solely for purposes of and as reasonably necessary to effectuate Aequus’s rights to use the Licensed IP in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement.

more Release Events has occurred. The Software Escrow Agreement sets forth in greater detail Aequus’s rights and obligations with respect to the use and disclosure of Escrow Materials following a Release Event.

(b) Aequus hereby agrees that the delivery to it of the Escrow Materials in accordance with the Escrow Agreement shall be deemed a disclosure by WorldGate of its Confidential Information and that further disclosure and use of such Escrow Materials shall be subject in all respects to the provisions of the Mutual Confidentiality Agreement, except where otherwise expressly agreed by the Parties in writing, including in another Related Document.

(c) The delivery of the Escrow Materials to Aequus shall not imply the grant of any right or license to use the Escrow Materials except as set forth above and such uses shall be authorized only to the extent necessary to permit Aequus to continue providing Services in the Territory to Customers.

2.4 No Conflicting Grants. WorldGate will not knowingly (i) grant, transfer or assign to any person any right or interest in any Licensed IP or related Documentation or (ii) grant to any third party any right to use or exploit any Licensed IP or related Documentation, which in either

2.5 Limitations and Exclusions on License.

IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR OTHER SIMILAR DAMAGES OR COSTS, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF EITHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN.

Unless earlier terminated in accordance with this Section 13, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until the twentieth (20th) anniversary of the Effective Date, except that this Agreement shall automatically renew with respect to the Licensed IP for subsequent consecutive five (5) year periods (collectively, the “Term”) unless and until Aequus notifies WorldGate of its election not to renew not less than three (3) months prior to the expiration of the then-current period of the Term.

(a) Either Party may at its sole option terminate this Agreement upon written notice effective thirty (30) days after delivery of such notice if the other Party breaches a material obligation under this Agreement or the Master Agreement, and, to the extent cureable, fails to cure such breach within such period or such lesser period as may be set forth in the Master Agreement; provided, however, that unless terminated pursuant to Section 5 of the Master Agreement, if Aequus is otherwise not in breach of this Agreement, (i) WorldGate may only terminate the licenses granted hereunder in accordance with this Section 13.2 if Aequus’s breach is its failure to pay the License Fee when due; (ii) WorldGate may only terminate its obligations to provide Software Support Services in accordance with this Section 13.2 if Aequus’s breach is its failure to pay the Maintenance and Update Services Fee when due, and (iii) WorldGate may only terminate its obligation to provide Tier 2 Support Services in accordance with this Section 13.2 if Aequus’s breach is its failure to pay the Tier 2 Service Fee when due. Notwithstanding the foregoing, WorldGate acknowledges and agrees that, in the event that WorldGate violates or fails or refuses to perform any covenant or agreement made by it herein, Aequus may be without an adequate remedy at law. WorldGate agrees, therefore, that in the event that WorldGate violates or fails or refuses to perform any covenant or agreement made by WorldGate herein, Aequus may, subject to the terms of this Agreement and in addition to any remedies at law for damages or other relief, institute and prosecute an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce specific performance of such covenant or agreement or seek any other equitable relief.

EXHIBIT A

DATA CENTER NETWORK SOFTWARE SUPPORT SERVICES

1. Software Support Services

a. WorldGate will, in the course of development, develop software updates, for the WorldGate data center network. In order to help maintain a synchronous state between the WorldGate data center network and the Aequus Data Center Network, and keep the centers at the same functional level (as the same may be allowed given the system, hardware and environmental constraints of such centers,) WorldGate will make such software updates available to Aequus for installation on the Aequus Data Center Network.

b. WorldGate will correct failures of the WorldGate code in the Data Center Network systems or as commercially reasonable, assist Aequus staff with their rebuilding or correction of errors in the systems to restore function in accordance with WorldGate specifications and historic customer service levels. Such corrections shall be provided within the industry accepted time frames. WorldGate will use commercially reasonable effort to replace Workarounds with a final resolution, in the form of applicable Updates and Upgrades, within industry standard timeframes from when the relevant failure is first reported and reproduced. In no event shall WorldGate be responsible hereunder for failures caused by (i) any actions or omissions of Aequus, its agents, or its invitees, (ii) the center environment or any hardware components of the center, (iii) any changes made to the WorldGate code by other than WorldGate or its agents, (iv) any failures in other than the most current or the immediate prior release of the WorldGate code. To the extent WorldGate renders assistance that is not due to a WorldGate code failure such assistance is outside the scope hereof and is separately and independently compensable.

c. Whether WorldGate develops the code release primarily for the Aequus Data Center Network or WorldGate data center network, software changes will be bundled into common upgrade releases, tested, released and applied to both centers unless not applicable. WorldGate will provide documentation to describe the code release features and application, and will deliver software packages as applicable to update the original RPMs and build media for the changes.

d. WorldGate will use commercially reasonable effort to assist Aequus in the upgrade process for the Aequus Data Center Network.

e. WorldGate will assist in coordinating the upgrades to minimize any disruption of service, including working with Aequus to apply such upgrades to the respective Data Center Networks at mutually agreed to times where possible.

f. Prior to the upgrade, a QA test report will be provided to Aequus for review and their records. WorldGate will provide guidance for Aequus test planning for the release.

g. WorldGate will provide to Aequus Technical Services on call support (30 minute response) 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 366 days a year for Network system Class 1 Errors (as defined below).

h. For all other ODC failures, Data Center Network Support Services shall be accessible via phone and email. The WorldGate support team shall be available during normal business hours. After contacting the support team to report an issue, WorldGate shall commence using commercially reasonable efforts to provide a Workaround or final fix reasonably acceptable to Aequus. Aequus will also receive notification of resolution of the issue from the WorldGate support team. The WorldGate support team shall assist Aequus in the installation or implementation of, each such resolution.

For purposes hereof, Class 1 Error means a problem with the Software that renders any Data Center Network “substantially unusable” or materially impairs Aequus or its End User’s ability to use the Software in the ordinary course of its business. That is, the Software cannot, substantially perform the basic and necessary functions that such Software has historically achieved.

EXHIBIT B

TIER 2 SUPPORT SERVICES

After the Effective Date, Aequus will have access to the Tier 2 Support for the Term. The Support Services will consist of the following:

1. Support (i) to SNAP TSR/CSR Tier 1 teams for end user installations and problems that cannot be reasonably resolved by such teams with respect to Customer support, and for RMA processes as set forth in the Reseller Agreement.

2. Tier 2 Support Services are to be provided 5 days a week during the hours of 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Monday – Friday, Eastern Time.

3. Support beyond these hours will only be provided pursuant to a separate SOW.

4. Aequus and WorldGate personnel will document all problems and customer contacts/escalations in the Aequus ticketing system currently RightNow (SNAP to Provide user ID’s.)

5. WorldGate will provide commercially reasonable support, at its election, directly to End Users only in conjunction with the support being provided by the SNAP TSR/CSR Tier 1 teams, and only in the event that such teams have not been able to resolve the problems after a reasonable effort on their part.

6. Aequus will document and WorldGate will evaluate the operating environments in which the WorldGate Phones will be used and recommend unique solutions to enable WorldGate Phones to fully function in such environments using the Snap!VRS Services. WorldGate will have no responsibility or liability in connection with the cost and provisioning of equipment solutions.
