2.2		Except as provided in Clause 2.1, a person who is not a party to this Agreement has no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Xxx 0000 to enforce any term of this Agreement but this does not affect any right or remedy of an H3G Affiliate which exists or is available apart from the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Xxx 0000.
2.3		In the event of any breach of this Agreement by TCS, TCS shall be liable for not just the losses, damages and expenses suffered or incurred by H3G but also for any such losses, damages and expenses suffered or incurred by any H3G Affiliate. This Clause 2.3 applies mutatis mutandis to any loss or damage suffered by any H3G Affiliate by reason of any tort, delict or other act or omission of TCS which gives rise to liability of TCS to H3G (or were the loss or damage to have been suffered by H3G would give rise to such liability) other than by reason of the provisions of this Agreement but related to the subject matter of this Agreement or any Work Package.
2.4		If, notwithstanding the provisions of Clauses 2.1 and 2.3, any H3G Affiliate cannot for any reason recover the losses referred to in Clauses 2.1 or 2.3 against TCS or finds itself in a less advantageous position under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Xxx 0000 than it would have been had it been a party to the Agreement, then the provisions of Clause 2.1 (to the extent that they refer to the relevant Affiliate) shall be varied so as to read:
		“H3G declares itself trustee of the obligations, covenants and indemnities given in this Agreement by TCS insofar as they are expressed to be for the benefit of the H3G Affiliates and holds the said obligations, covenants and indemnities upon trust for the absolute benefit of the H3G Affiliates and TCS hereby covenants with H3G (in its capacity as such trustee) to perform each of the said obligations, covenants and indemnities.”
2.5		No proceedings may be brought by an H3G Affiliate against TCS without the consent of H3G (which, if given, may be conditional upon or subject to such procedural limitations or controls as H3G may impose in any case).
2.6		Proceedings may only be brought by TCS against H3G in relation to the subject matter of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, no proceedings may be brought by TCS against any H3G Affiliate.


2.7		At H3G’s discretion and upon notice by H3G of divestment of an H3G Affiliate and of H3G’s desire to rely on the provisions of this Clause 2.7 from H3G to TCS, the Parties hereby undertake to enter into a novation agreement substantially in the form set out in Schedule 5 with the Divested Business Unit or its owner.
2.8		Notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 2.7, TCS reserves the right not to enter into a novation agreement with the companies or entities set out in Schedule 17.
2.9		Any obligations of H3G may be validly discharged by any H3G Affiliate and any rights of H3G may be exercised by any H3G Affiliate (irrespective of the fact that the relevant term of the Agreement refers only to the Parties).


2.10		No references to the enforcement of rights by H3G Affiliates contained in this Agreement include a right to terminate this Agreement.
2.11		Prior to delivery of the Supplied Software, H3G shall send notification to TCS detailing which H3G Affiliate wishes to receive the Supplied Software and detailing in each case whether the relevant H3G Affiliate has elected to receive a Data Centre Installation, a Test Installation or a Pre-Production Installation (or a combination of all three).
2.12		Notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 2.3, H3G shall consolidate all claims arising out of the same cause of action into one proceeding such that no more than one H3G Affiliate can bring a claim for the same cause of action.

13.6		H3G reserves the right, in relation to any functionality of the Location Server System which TCS is required to provide under this Agreement or any Work Package, to remedy any defects in the provision of such functionality or to appoint third parties to do so, at the cost of TCS.
		Conditional acceptance
13.7		If H3G determines that TCS has substantially but not fully achieved any Milestone, it may in its sole discretion pay to TCS the proportion of the Milestone Payment which H3G considers to represent the proportion of the Milestone achieved by TCS. Notwithstanding any payment by H3G pursuant to this clause, H3G may require TCS to continue to provide the Services until the Milestone is fully Accepted.


13.8		If H3G incorporates Deliverables into its service to Subscribers (as defined within the definition of Commercial Production) and any Milestone Payments relating to such Deliverables have not been paid to TCS, H3G shall pay such Milestone Payments in accordance with Schedule 10 (the Charges Schedule) and the Work Package subject to the following:

17.1		No Change shall be binding on the parties unless the requirements of the Change Control Procedure have been satisfied. Until a Change is formally agreed to by both parties, the parties shall continue to perform their respective obligations without taking the Change into account.
17.2		Each party shall bear its own costs of the preparation and negotiation of Changes.
18		Dispute Resolution
18.1		It is the intention of the parties to settle amicably all disagreements and differences of opinion on matters of procedure and management arising out of each Work Package by conference and negotiations, and that the following procedure shall be followed prior to the serving of a claim form (as stipulated in this Agreement) or in relation to any matter of dispute between the parties concerning matters of procedure and management.

18.1.1		the Project Managers of both parties shall meet at H3G’s Designated Premises to attempt resolution. Should they not meet and resolve the matter within two (2) Business Days of the time at which either Party convenes a meeting to resolve the matter, then
18.1.2		the matter shall be promptly referred to the Steering Committee to attempt resolution. Should the Steering Committee not meet and resolve the matter within two (2) Business Days of the referral under this Clause 18.1.2, then
18.1.3		the matter promptly shall be referred to the Group IT Director of H3G and the Chief Executive Officer of TCS for resolution. If the Group IT Director of H3G and the Chief Executive Officer of TCS are not able to resolve the matter within two (2) Business Days of the referral under this Clause 18.1.3, then
18.1.4		the Parties shall consider then and on an ongoing basis whether or not it would be suitable to refer the matter in dispute to an expert appointed by the Parties or at any to enter into an alternative dispute resolution procedure with the assistance of a mediator appointed by the Parties or, in default of agreement, by the President for the time being of the British Computer Society.
18.2		If the parties have not resolved the dispute or referred the matter as contemplated by Clause 18.1.4 within fifteen (15) Business Days of expiry of the period set out in Clause 18.1.3, then (subject to the ongoing obligation in Clause 18.1.4) the dispute resolution process shall be deemed to have been exhausted in respect of the matter in


		dispute and such dispute shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration under the International Chamber of Commerce Rules, which Rules are hereby deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Clause. The seat, or legal place, of arbitration shall be London, England. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. The governing law of the contract shall be the substantive law of England.
18.3		For the avoidance of doubt, this Clause 18 shall not prevent either Party from seeking injunctive relief in the case of any breach or threatened breach by the other of any obligation of confidentiality or any infringement by the other of the first-named Party’s Intellectual Property Rights or from commencing any proceedings where this is necessary to avoid any loss of a claim due to the rules on limitation of actions.

19.1.2		If H3G serves notice terminating this Agreement at will pursuant to Clause 19.1.1 then H3G and, where relevant, each H3G Affiliate shall be deemed simultaneously to have served notice terminating each Work Package to which it is a party at the time specified in H3G’s notice. Termination of each such Work Package will be subject to a termination charge as if each such Work Package had been terminated separately under Clause 19.2.
19.2		H3G’s right to terminate Work Packages on notice
19.2.1		With the exception of the Initial Global Work Package notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in any Work Package or any other document (other than this Agreement) which forms part of a Work Package, H3G shall be entitled to terminate any Work Package by the giving of fifteen (15) Business Days written notice to TCS to expire at any time upon which H3G will pay TCS for the Services rendered by TCS up to the date of termination of the respective Work Package save that it shall have no such obligation where such termination follows termination by H3G of the Licence Agreement for breach of TCS.

19.2.2		In the event that H3G terminates a Work Package for convenience, H3G will pay TCS the “Break Fee” (as defined in Clause 19.2.3);

In the event H3G gives notice to terminate


		for convenience, H3G shall pay the element of the Fixed Fee for that Quarter and all previous Quarters together with the Charges paid (or due to be paid) by H3G for the relevant Third Party Software, subject to TCS’ duty to attempt to redeploy such Third Party Software and otherwise mitigate its incurred costs and after deducting any costs TCS can actually recover (the “Break Fee”).

19.3		Termination of Work Package for cause by either Party.
19.3.1		Each Party shall have the right without prejudice to its other rights or remedies, to terminate any Work Package immediately by written notice if the other Party:

(b)		is unable to pay its debts (within the meaning of section 123 of the Insolvency Act 1986) or an order is made or a resolution passed for the its liquidation, winding-up or dissolution (otherwise than for the purposes of a solvent amalgamation or reconstruction) or an administrative or other receiver, manager, trustee, liquidator, administrator or similar officer should be appointed over it or all or any substantial part of its assets or any other steps are taken or negotiations commenced by it or any of its creditors with a view to proposing any kind of composition, compromise or arrangement involving it and any of its creditors or anything analogous to the foregoing shall occur in any applicable jurisdiction.


19.3.2		For the purpose of Clause 19.3.1, but without limitation, TCS shall be deemed to be in material breach of a Work Package, and such breach to be incapable of remedy in the event that TCS fails to achieve the Acceptance of the Location Server System or any component part thereof on the second repeat of the Acceptance Tests.
19.3.3		H3G shall have the right, without prejudice to its other rights or remedies, to terminate a Work Package immediately by written notice to TCS, if TCS undergoes a change of control (as defined in Section 574(2) of the Capital Allowances Act 2001) and this change does not result in control passing to an Affiliate of TCS.
19.3.4		H3G shall have the right, without prejudice to its other rights or remedies, to terminate a Work Package if TCS has failed to achieve a Milestone by the specified date, H3G has given notice of its intention to terminate should the Milestone not be achieved by a date specified in such notice (to be no earlier than 7 calendar days after the date of the notice) and TCS has failed to achieve the Milestone within such period.
19.3.5		For the purpose of Clause 19.3.1, TCS may terminate this Agreement for non-payment by H3G only by giving at least 60 days’ notice to H3G where H3G has failed to pay an amount which is:


(a)		undisputed, due and payable;
(b)		[*]
(c)		overdue for a period of at least 30 days; and
(d)		one for which a demand has been made by TCS in writing to H3G, provided that the demand clearly states that the amount has been overdue for a period of 30 days and states TCS’s intention to terminate this Agreement at the end of the 60 day period following service of the demand if the demand is not met.


		Country basis of termination
19.4		In the event that an H3G Affiliate by its acts or omissions causes H3G to be in material breach of this Agreement or a Work Package (the “Defaulting Affiliate”), TCS’s rights to terminate pursuant to Clause 19.3.1 above will only extend to such Local Work Packages as have been entered into by the Defaulting Affiliate and in all other respects H3G’s (and other H3G Affiliates’) rights shall remain unaffected.
		Consequences of termination
19.5		Termination of this Agreement or any Work Package will not affect the continuation of any provision (including but not limited to Clause 11), which is intended to, or capable of surviving termination.
19.6		Termination of this Agreement, other than under Clause 19.1, shall not operate to terminate Local Work Packages (though for the avoidance of doubt the same event may be the basis of termination of this Agreement by H3G and of termination of Local Work Packages by H3G Affiliates).
20		Limitation of Liability
20.1		Nothing in this Agreement shall exclude or limit either Party’s liability for (i) the tort of deceit; (ii) death or personal injury caused by its negligence (as defined in section 1 of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977); (iii) any breach of the obligations implied by section 12 Sale of Goods Xxx 0000 or section 2 Supply of Goods and Services Xxx 0000; (iv) any liability which cannot be excluded by law; (v) or in the case of TCS, the indemnity set out in Clauses 4.1 to 4.5 of the Licence Agreement.

20.3		TCS agrees that any and all claims by TCS against H3G or its Affiliates will be brought by TCS solely against H3G subject always to the limits on liability above and TCS will not bring any claims directly against any H3G Affiliate for damages or any liquidated sums.

3.5		H3G shall use reasonable endeavours to maintain accurate and up-to-date records of the number and location of all copies of the Supplied Software.
3.6		Notwithstanding any statement in this Licence Agreement to the contrary, H3G may permit use of the Supplied Software (or any part thereof) under the terms of any agreement between H3G or any of the H3G Affiliates and any agent or sub-contractor (“Contractor Agreement”) including, without limitation, consultant programmers, system integrators, system maintainers, outsourcing, or disaster recovery or other service TCSs (“Authorised Sub-Contractors”). H3G shall be entitled to grant to such Authorised Sub-Contractors a sub-licence to use the Supplied Software solely to provide services (whether systems integration, maintenance, outsourcing, disaster recovery or other support services) under such Contractor Agreement in respect of the Supplied Software. Any such sub-licence shall terminate on termination of the Contractor Agreement (or, if later, on termination of any obligation to provide services consequent upon termination of such Contractor Agreement)


3.7		The parties acknowledge that the costs for Third Party Software were based on the projections made by TCS in assessing what Third Party Software would be required in order for the Supplied Software to deliver the functionality set out in the Functional Specification. Subject to Clause 4.2(i) of the Services Integration Agreement, in the event that there is a material change to the amount of Third Party Software required to deliver such functionality, the parties agree to evaluate the impact on the element of the Fees that is referable to the Third Party Software and the parties may, if the impact of the change of Third Party Software is that there is a potential overall cost saving to H3G in procuring the Location Server System, agree to adjust the price of the Third Party Software accordingly.

4.2		The foregoing indemnity shall remain in effect notwithstanding any termination of this Licence Agreement.
4.3		If any IPR Claim is made or, in either Party’s reasonable opinion, is likely to be made against H3G or any H3G Affiliate or its or their directors, officers or employees, TCS shall, with minimum disruption to H3G, the H3G Affiliates and their respective Subscribers at its option promptly and at its own expense either:


(a)		procure for H3G and the H3G Affiliates the right to continue using and possessing the Supplied Software; or

or facilities or the performance of the Supplied Software) so as to avoid the infringement or alleged infringement


4.4		In the event that H3G or any H3G Affiliate does not believe (acting reasonably) that TCS has complied with Clause 4.3 in relation to the Supplied Software modification or replacement Supplied Software provided by TCS pursuant to Clause 4.3 or the IPR Claim prevents the use by H3G or any H3G Affiliate of the Supplied Software or any part thereof, H3G may terminate this Licence Agreement and, without prejudice to its other rights and remedies, receive a refund of all sums paid under the Licence Agreement and the Services Integration Agreement (and all agreements ancillary to it) to TCS by H3G or any H3G Affiliate.
4.5		TCS’s indemnity obligations hereunder shall not apply to the extent that the infringement arises out of any modification of the Supplied Software not made or authorised by TCS or the combination, operation or use of the Supplied Software with such other programs or data (of which TCS was not aware) if such infringement was directly caused by the combination, operation or use of the Supplied Software with other programs or data.
4.6		TCS warrants that:
4.6.1		it has the right to enter into this Licence Agreement and to grant H3G and the H3G Affiliates the licence to use the Supplied Software and Documentation;

If it is unable to do so, TCS shall replace the defective Supplied Software or Documentation (as the case may be) with software or documentation of at least equivalent functionality and performance that is free of Errors (without prejudice to the other rights and remedies of H3G or the H3G Affiliate)


5.		Payment and Delivery
5.1		TCS shall invoice H3G for the Fees in accordance with Schedule 2. H3G shall pay all undisputed invoices within 30 (thirty) days of receipt of each such invoice. The Fees are exclusive of VAT which where applicable will be paid subject to receipt of an appropriate VAT invoice. All other taxes shall be for the sole account of TCS.
5.2		TCS shall, where applicable, render VAT (or other similar tax) invoices in accordance with the specific terms of the relevant Work Package (or invoices compliant with applicable legislation from time to time) in respect of the Charges together with all necessary substantiating documents required by H3G. Invoices shall be sent to H3G in accordance with the requirements set out in Clause 23 of the Services Integration Agreement. In the absence of such invoices and documentation the Charges shall be inclusive of VAT and all other similar taxes. If withholding taxes are payable, H3G shall pay such amounts to the relevant authorities in accordance with the applicable laws, and shall provide to TCS any and all withholding tax certificates which H3G receives.

6.		Deposit of and access to Source Code; Maintenance and Support
6.1		TCS will deposit the source code of any software to be provided by TCS under this Licence Agreement and any Documentation reasonably necessary for the purpose of the proper day to day operation and maintenance of such software (“Supporting Documentation”) in escrow and shall keep such source code and Supporting Documentation up to date in accordance with an escrow agreement with NCC Escrow International Limited in the form set out in Schedule 6. The Parties shall upon the entering into of this Licence Agreement or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter enter into such escrow agreement with NCC Escrow International Limited. The Escrow Agreement shall, in any event, permit H3G and its Affiliates to have access to the source code of such software in the following circumstances and as set out in the escrow agreement at Schedule 6:


6.1.1		if any of the events described in Clause 8.3 of this Licence Agreement occurs or, in H3G’s opinion, is reasonably likely to occur in relation to TCS; or
6.1.2		in the event of a material breach by TCS of its obligations under this Licence Agreement, the Maintenance and Support Services Agreement, the Services Integration Agreement or any Global Work Package agreed under the Services Integration Agreement or the termination of any of the same on account of TCS’s default; or


6.1.3		if TCS or any other third person ceases to provide support and maintenance services in respect of the Supplied Software; or
6.1.4		if TCS’s unrestricted cash balance falls below [*];
6.1.5		if a Force Majeure event as defined under the Maintenance and Support Agreement prevents TCS from maintaining or supporting the Supplied Software;
6.1.6		if an Event of Force Majeure entitles H3G to terminate this Agreement; or
6.1.7		if TCS fails to enter into the Maintenance and Support Services Agreement when requested to do so by H3G.


6.2		Upon entering into this Licence Agreement and in any event prior to 31st January 2002 the parties shall enter into the Maintenance and Support Services Agreement for maintenance and support of the Supplied Software.
7.		Committed Licence Revenue/Subscriber Calculations
7.1		The parties have agreed that, subject to termination prior to the expiry of two years from Commercial Production, the Fees paid to TCS under this Licence Agreement shall at least equal the Committed Licence Revenue.
7.2		TCS shall within 5 days of the Commencement Date (“Initial Payment Date”) invoice H3G for the Initial Licence Fee. After payment of the Initial Licence Fee, H3G shall subject to earlier termination prior to the expiry of three years after Commercial Production and subject to Clause 7.6, pay TCS [*] more payments of the Committed Licence Revenue Tranche, each payment being due on a quarterly basis with the first Committed Licence Revenue Tranche to be invoiced on Commercial Production.
7.3		In consideration for the Committed Licence Revenue, H3G are licensed to use the Supplied Software for [] Subscribers (the “Committed Subscriber Level*”). In the event that, as a result of the audit set out in Clause 7.4, H3G’s Subscriber levels exceed the Committed Subscriber Level prior to payment of 100 percent of the Committed Licence Revenue, H3G shall pay the balance remaining of the Committed Licence Revenue and then shall continue to pay for additional Subscribers in accordance with the Per Subscriber Charge.
7.4		H3G shall, on an annual basis, conduct an annual audit of the number of third-generation Subscribers who have generated revenue for an H3G Licensed Affiliate in the ninety calendar days prior to the conduct of the audit (the “Report”). H3G shall provide TCS with an independent auditor’s certificate that verifies the number of Subscribers set out in the Report.
7.5		On production of the Report, H3G shall calculate the Fees payable to TCS by multiplying the number of Subscribers in excess of the Committed Subscriber Level

(as defined in Clause 7.5) by the Per Subscriber Charge (after deducting any payments previously made in relation to those Subscribers).

Annual adjustment of the timing payments


7.6		The parties have agreed that, until the Committed Subscriber Level has been achieved, the following process shall be applied to adjust the timing of the payments of the Committed Licence Revenue (“Tranche Timing of Payment Adjustment Process”):-


7.6.1		within 30 days of production of the Report, H3G will calculate whether they have exceeded the Notional Committed Subscriber Number.
7.6.2		In the event that H3G have exceeded the Notional Committed Subscriber Number, H3G agrees to pay TCS the difference between the payments they would have otherwise have made if the Notional Per Subscriber Charges had been applied for the relevant period and the amount of the Committed Licence Revenue that has been paid to date. This one-off adjusted payment shall be termed the (“One-off Adjusted Payment”).
7.6.3		As a result of the One-off Adjusted Payment, the amount of each [] Committed Licence Revenue Tranche for the following year shall be reduced by a quarter of the One-off Payment so that the amount of the Committed Licence Revenue in that year shall not be affected but that part of the Committed Licence Revenue will be paid earlier. By way of example, if the One-off Adjusted Payment is [] each Committed Licence Revenue Tranche for the year following the Report shall be reduced by [*]. The intention of the Parties is that the overall quantum of the Fees (including the Committed Licence Revenue) shall not be affected by the Tranche Timing of Payment Adjustment Process.


8.		Termination
8.1		Either Party may terminate this Licence Agreement with immediate effect by giving notice in writing to the other Party if any one or more of the following events happens:


(a)		the other Party commits a material breach of any of its obligations under this Licence Agreement which is incapable of remedy; or
(b)		the other Party fails to remedy, where capable of remedy, or persists in any material breach of any of its obligations under this Licence Agreement after having been required in writing in either case to remedy or desist from such breach within a period of 30 days

provided however that no right of TCS to terminate for non-payment of any fees shall arise other than as provided in Clause 8.2.


8.2		For the purpose of Clause 8.1, TCS may terminate this Licence Agreement for non-payment by H3G only by giving at least 60 days’ notice to H3G where H3G has failed to pay an amount which is:


(a)		Undisputed, due and payable;
(b)		in excess of [*];
(c)		overdue for a period of at least 30 days; and
(d)		one for which a demand has been made by TCS in writing to H3G, provided that the demand clearly states that the amount has been overdue for a period of 30 days and states TCS’s intention to terminate this Licence Agreement at the end of the 60 day period following service of the demand if the demand is not met.


8.3		H3G may terminate this Licence Agreement with immediate effect by giving notice in writing to TCS if any one or more of the following events happens:


(a)		TCS proposes a voluntary arrangement within the meaning of Section 1 or Section 253 of the Insolvency Xxx 0000 or an interim order is made in relation to TCS under Section 252 of the Insolvency Act 1986 or any other steps are taken or negotiations commenced by TCS or any of its creditors with a view to proposing any kind of composition, compromise or arrangement involving the other party and any of its creditors;
(b)		TCS is deemed to be unable to pay its debts within the meaning of Section 123 of the Insolvency Xxx 0000, or calls a meeting for the purpose of passing a resolution to wind it up, or such a resolution is passed, or a resolution is passed by the directors of TCS to seek a winding up or administration order, or TCS presents, or has presented in relation to it, a petition for a winding up order or to appoint an administrator, or has an administrator receiver, or receiver appointed of all or any part of its business, undertaking, property or assets;
(c)		a secured lender to TCS takes any steps to obtain possession of the property on which it has security or otherwise to enforce its security; or
(d)		TCS suffers or undergoes any procedure analogous to any of those specified in Clauses 8.3(a) to 8.3(c) inclusive above or any other procedure available in the country in which TCS is constituted, established or domiciled against or to an insolvent debtor or available to the creditors of such a debtor.


8.4		H3G may, at any time following the payment of the Committed Licence Revenue, terminate this Licence Agreement with no further payment due from H3G by giving at least 30 days prior written notice to TCS.
8.5		The termination of this Licence Agreement shall be without prejudice to the rights and remedies of either Party which may have accrued up to the date of termination. In the event of termination for H3G’s breach, H3G shall also have the right to continue to use the Supplied Software for a period of [] following termination of this License Agreement. During this additional [] period only, H3G shall, unless the Committed Licence Revenue has been paid, continue to pay the Committed Licence Revenue Tranches as they become due. In the event that H3G have paid the Committed Licence Revenue, H3G shall continue to pay the Per Subscriber Charge.
8.6		In the event that this Licence Agreement is terminated for TCS’ breach, H3G’s rights to continue using the Supplied Software shall be unaffected.
8.7		In the event that an H3G Affiliate commits a material breach of this Licence Agreement (the “Defaulting Affiliate”), TCS’s rights to terminate this Licence Agreement pursuant to Clause 8.1 above will only extend to the Defaulting Affiliate’s rights under this Licence Agreement and in all other respects H3G’s (and other H3G Affiliates’) rights to continue using the Supplied Software shall remain unaffected.
9.		Consequences of termination
9.1		On termination of this Licence Agreement TCS shall procure that all documentation and other material including disks and tapes containing Confidential Information of H3G or any H3G Affiliate shall be returned to H3G or the relevant H3G Affiliate (as appropriate) forthwith.
9.2		Subject to Clause 8.5, the terms of Clauses 3, 5, 6, 7 and 10 shall survive termination of this Agreement. Any other terms of this Agreement which are either expressed so as to survive (or are capable of surviving) termination of this Agreement or from their nature or context it is contemplated that they are to survive termination shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding termination.
10.		Limitation of Liability
10.1		Nothing in this Licence Agreement shall exclude or limit either Party’s liability for: (i) the tort of deceit; (ii) death or personal injury caused by its negligence (as defined in section 1 of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977); (iii) any breach of the obligations implied by section 12 of the Sale of Goods Xxx 0000 or section 2 of the Supply of Goods and Services Xxx 0000; (iv) any liability which cannot be excluded by law; (v) and, in the case of TCS, the indemnity set out in Clauses 4.1 to 4.5.
10.2		Subject to Clause 10.1 and to the extent that the law permits, each Party’s maximum liability per event shall in no event exceed [] of the total of those sums which have been paid and those which are payable by H3G and any and all H3G Affiliates under this Licence Agreement, the Services Integration Agreement and the Maintenance and Support Services Agreement (and all agreements ancillary to it), or [] whichever is the greater. For the purposes of calculating the total sums payable under the


		Maintenance and Support Services Agreement and agreements ancillary to it the minimum figure shall assume that maintenance and support is provided for a period of 4 years. This calculation shall be in pounds sterling and any conversion from any other currency shall be made using the London spot closing mid-point rate for that currency against the pound sterling which is shown in the edition of the Financial Times for the day on which this calculation is made or, if no edition is published on that day, in the edition last published before that day. The calculation shall be made at the time on which the cause of action first accrues which would otherwise result in liability greater than the aggregate liability cap provided for by this Clause 10.2.
10.3		TCS agrees that any and all claims by TCS against H3G or the H3G Affiliates will be brought by TCS solely against H3G subject always to the limits on liability above and TCS will not bring any claims directly against any H3G Affiliate other than to seek an injunction against the relevant H3G Affiliate where this is permitted under the laws of the relevant jurisdiction.
11.		Insurance
11.1		Without limiting its other obligation under the Licence Agreement or otherwise at law TCS shall effect and maintain at its own expense the following insurance policies (the “Insurance Policies”):


11.1.1		Professional Indemnity Insurance in relation to any negligent act error or omission or any breach of duty in the conduct and execution of professional activities and duties undertaken by TCS or any person for whom they are responsible pursuant to this Licence Agreement. This insurance shall be effected in an amount of not less than [] per each occurrence for a period from the Commencement Date until 3 years after the termination of this Licence Agreement. The excess shall not exceed [] in respect of any one occurrence or series of occurrences consequent upon or attributable to one original cause. This insurance shall not contain a retroactive date later than the date of the appointment of TCS or the date upon which TCS commenced work whichever is the earlier; and
11.1.2		Third Party Insurance covering the legal liability of TCS and H3G and H3G Affiliates for injury to persons or loss or damage to property arising out of the execution of the works or the performance of the Licence Agreement. The policy should contain a “Cross Liability Clause” extended to cover unintentional breach or infringement or unauthorised use of Intellectual Property Rights and the amount of such insurance shall not be less than [*] in respect of any one occurrence.


11.2		The terms and conditions of the Insurance Policies and the choice of insurer shall be approved by H3G and such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If TCS shall fail to effect and keep in force the Insurance Policies or provide copies of the Insurance Policies or premium receipts to H3G, then H3G may effect and keep in force any such insurance and pay such premiums as may be necessary for that purpose and recover from TCS whether by way of deduction or otherwise.


11.3		If the limit of liability under any of the Insurance Policies is subject to an annual aggregate, TCS undertakes to reinstate such limit of liability immediately in the event that such limit is exhausted for any reason.
11.4		H3G and the H3G Affiliates shall be named as an insured party under the Insurance Policies and TCS shall procure that each insurer agrees to waive any rights of subrogation against H3G and the H3G Affiliates.

GLOBAL WORK PACKAGE
ORDER FORM

THIS Work Package is entered into between Xxxxxxxxx 3G IP S.A.R.L. and Telecommunication Systems Inc. (“TCS”) and is made on the terms of the Services Integration Agreement (the “Agreement”) agreed between the parties as of 31 January 2002. The terms of the Agreement are incorporated into this Work Package Order Form in full, subject to any express modifications contained in Schedule One to this Order Form and the rules of interpretation contained in Clause 1 of the Agreement therefore apply to this Global Work Package.

TCS shall provide the Services as set out in Section A1 (Description of Services) to produce the Deliverables (as set out in Section A3) in accordance with the Project Plan (set out in Section A5) and the Statement of Requirements/Specification (as set out in Section A4) and so as to achieve the Key Milestones (as set out in Section A6) and Acceptance Tests set out in Section A2 (or as agreed pursuant to the Agreement) and within the agreed resource requirements and the fixed fee set out in Section A7 (Project Resources).

Section A1
Description of Services

Xxxxxxxxx 3G UK Limited and H3G S.p.A. Italy wish TCS to provide four Data Centre Installations and two Test Installations (i.e. install the Location Server System in two data centres in the United Kingdom (located at Hemel Hempstead and Birmingham respectively), two data centres in Italy (located at Milan and Rome respectively), a production-ready full test network in the United Kingdom (located at Maidenhead) and a production-ready full test network in Italy (located at Milan)).

TCS will customise the Supplied Software to meet H3G’s Requirements and will integrate the Supplied Software with H3G’s test lab equipment, core network elements and enterprise architecture including, without limit, with new or initial versions of the following:


1.		OSA Gateway;
2.		AGPS Capable UE;
3.		PPG;
4.		XXX, XXX, XXXX
0.		Assistance Data Feeds
6.		Manager of Managers (MOM)

TCS shall develop the Acceptance Test Plan after undertaking extensive research into H3G’s lab configuration, core network elements and relevant processes and procedures. TCS anticipates utilising its largest deployment team to develop such Acceptance Test Plan and will leverage the knowledge gained in the UK Test Installation to reduce the time, cost and resource allocation of future deployments.

In providing the Project Plan (set out in Section A5), TCS has allocated sufficient time and resources during the UK Test Installation and Italy Test Installation to integrate the Supplied Software with H3G’s test lab equipment, core network elements and enterprise architecture. Pursuant to H3G’s required dates, the Project Plan contains no contingency time.

H3G will provide TCS with a Location Server Build Requirements document for integrating the Supplied Software into the H3G Environment. TCS engineers will assist H3G with the finalisation of this document so that TCS fully understands H3G’s core network environment.

In addition to providing H3G with the standard documentation for the Supplied Software, TCS will provide H3G with hardware configuration documents setting out the configuration settings that are unique to H3G and which have been identified, documented and tested prior to their documentation by TCS for inclusion in the Test Network Documentation.

TCS will ensure that the testing of components [*] results in a high quality deployment into a production data centre.

[*]

	•		Fitness for purpose – must fulfil its intended purpose.

	•		Completeness – all sections of the Deliverable must be present with no sections remaining to be determined. The Deliverable must be easily understandable on a ‘first pass’ without the need to refer to supporting documents.

	•		Detail – the Deliverable must be sufficiently detailed as required by customary industry practice.

	•		Technically feasible – any Acceptance Tests set out in a Deliverable must be straightforward and clear and must provide adequate functionality and performance testing.

	•		Consistent – any Deliverable must be both internally consistent and consistent with all referenced documents.

	•		Clearly Presented – any Deliverable must be well structured, unambiguous and make effective use of tables, diagrams and other descriptive techniques.
