18. RIGHTS, REMEDIES AND WAIVER
The rights and remedies provided Buyer herein shall be cumulative, and in

accordance with the laws of the State of Iowa, without regard to its choice
of law rules, but including the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code

Goods and the U.N. Convention on the Limitation Period in the International
Sale of Goods, as amended by Protocol. If a U.S.-based Seller, in the event

settled by the parties themselves, the parties agree to attempt in good
faith to resolve such claim or controversy by mediation, through a mutually
agreed upon, non-binding form of Alternate Dispute Resolution (ADR),

arbitration under the Rules of the London Court of International
Arbitration, which Rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into
this clause. The tribunal shall consist of a sole arbitrator, the place for
arbitration shall be London, England, and the proceedings shall be in
English language. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may

the outcome of such arbitration.

for loss or damage to any and all property, arising out of the acts or
omissions of Seller under this Agreement. Seller shall carry and maintain
Workers' Compensation and Commercial General Liability Insurance (including

such form as to protect Seller and Rockwell from any claims or damages for
bodily injury, including death, and any damage of or to property which may
arise from acts or omissions of Seller under this Agreement. Seller shall

4. Description of Work
[Confidential Treatment has been requested for this portion of this Exhibit]
5. Standards and Procedures
The Seller shall perform all design, development, and tests consistent with a
set of software engineering best practices that have been approved by the Buyer.
All software deliverable reviews between the Buyer and Seller shall occur as
determined by the Buyer.
6. Deliverables
The following list of software deliverables shall be provided to the Buyer. The
Seller shall provide a electronic copy of all the deliverable documents in
Microsoft Word Format compatible with Word version 97, or in the case of
system/software requirements, a format compatible with the RCPS DOORS document
control system.
a. An integration test plan and final integration test procedure.
b. Verification and documentation of system initialization steps.
c. Design documentation of all xxxx-xxxxx XX-0 device drivers developed
for this project.
d. Source code of all software developed, including configured and ported
OS software.
e. Binary files from all complied code.
f. Build process steps used to build software.
SNAP2 will conduct design reviews for all new drivers prior to beginning
implementation. The integration test plan will be reviewed and approved by the
Buyer prior to conduct of the integration test procedure by SNAP2. SNAP2 will
develop test plans for the drivers at this time as well. SNAP2 will verify
operation of the drivers once an OS-9 kernel port is available.
7. Milestone Schedule
The milestones and schedule items are described as follows.
SNAP2 anticipates a project start date of November 7th, 2001. This date assumes
that complete hardware specifications will be available at that time and first
samples of working FPGA1 hardware will be available on or before November 28,
2001.This schedule assumes that hardware supporting the required functionality
is available in quantity 3. The schedule also assumes final FPGA2 hardware will
be available on January 21, 2002. The ASIC hardware is assumed to be available
on April 26, 2002.
The following dates and delivery contents may be modified during the course of
the project based on agreements by the Buyer and Seller. Modifications may be
required to reflect changes necessitated due to hardware dependencies. The test
results listed as deliverables in the table below refer to integration tests
planned for this project, not the ASIC testing SNAP2 is working on under a
separate contract.

8. Status Reports and Meetings
SNAP2 will submit reports on a weekly basis to the RCPS Technical Lead, Seat IPT
Manager, and Technical Subcontract Manager, throughout the duration of the
project. This report will describe the week's accomplishments as well as the
developments planned for the following week. It will also discuss any issues
related to the execution of the project, including risks.
SNAP2 uses Microsoft Project as its project scheduling tool. SNAP2 will create a
detailed project plan that will specify task dependencies within the project as
well as dependencies on events outside of SNAP2's control, such as hardware
availability. Using this plan as the primary tool, SNAP2 will be able to modify
task orders and priorities as necessary should changes occur with regard to
hardware availability or functionality. SNAP2 will be able to determine whether
or not the allocation of additional human resources to the project would benefit
the schedule and will be able to provide RCPS with weekly updates to the
schedule status.
In addition, the project managers and technical leads from Buyer and Seller
shall hold periodic conference call to discuss any technical or project issues
that exist. This regularly scheduled call will promote good coordination between
the Buyer and Seller, and will help maximize productivity and avoid wasting time
on activities that will require later rework.
9. Proprietary Headers
All Seller software deliverables shall use the Buyer's proprietary headers and
cover sheets. It shall be understood that the Buyer has full publication rights
of all documentation and software purchased from the Seller. All software files
shall use the Buyer proprietary headers consistent with the current Buyer file
header structure.
10. Development & Configuration Control Tools
The Seller shall use the following development and Configuration Control tools
to produce the software deliverables.
a) Microware Ultra C.
b) Microsoft Office 97' Compatible word processor for documentation
deliverables.
11. Field and Sustaining Support
This subcontract makes no provisions for the Seller to provide extended or field
support of this product after Seller meets all the enclosed closure criteria
requirements.
