Modifications, and all Intellectual Property Rights in any of the
foregoing. RTI, its Affiliates, and its and their Resellers will obtain
no rights in or to the Private Label Software, Retail Pro Software,
Enterprise Edition, or Tools and Other Software by operation of this
Agreement or otherwise, other than the rights and licenses set forth in
this Section 2. RTI hereby assigns irrevocably to Intuit all right,
title, and interest, including without limitation any Intellectual
Property Rights and any rights in Derivative Technology that it has or
may acquire in the Retail Pro Software, the Enterprise Edition, and any
Modifications thereto. RTI will ensure that each employee or
subcontractor to RTI who is involved in developing Modifications has
executed an enforceable assignment of all rights therein to RTI or
Intuit.
(h) RTI will reasonably cooperate with Intuit both during and after the
term in the procurement and maintenance of all Intellectual Property
Rights and assignments created hereunder, and will execute, when
requested, any other documents necessary to carry out the purpose of
this Agreement. Intuit will provide RTI with reasonable prior written
notice if it intends to abandon any pending patent application or
issued patent with respect to the Enterprise Edition. If Intuit does
abandon any pending patent application or issued patent with respect to
the Enterprise Edition or otherwise elects to not file, register or
maintain patents or patent rights with respect to the Enterprise
Edition, then, provided that it first obtains Intuit's prior written
approval, RTI may, at RTI's expense and on Intuit's behalf, file,
register and maintain in force any such patents or patent rights,
provided that RTI names Intuit as the registered owner of any such
patents and patent rights and assigns any such patents or patent right
to Intuit.
(c) If either Intuit or RTI reasonably believes that a third party is
infringing any Intellectual Property Rights in the Enterprise Edition
in contravention of the rights and licenses granted to RTI hereunder,
the party who has made such determination will notify the other party
promptly in writing. Provided that it first obtains Intuit's prior
written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed, RTI may, at its own expense, bring and prosecute actions,
proceedings, suits and counter-suits (collectively "ACTIONS") for
enforcement of such Intellectual Property Rights (including suits for
past infringement). RTI must obtain Intuit's prior written approval of
any settlement of any such Action. In the event that RTI brings any
Action in accordance with this Section 2.1(c), RTI will direct and
control such Action and will provide prompt and regular updates to
Intuit of RTI's intentions and progress toward resolution of such
Action, and Intuit may also participate with counsel of its choosing,
at Intuit's expense. Intuit retains the right to bring any Action that
it deems necessary or appropriate to protect and enforce its
Intellectual Property Rights. If RTI brings any Action hereunder,
Intuit will, at RTI's expense, provide reasonable cooperation in
connection with such Action, including executing such documents as RTI
may reasonably request. If RTI recovers damages and/or other payments
from infringing third parties pursuant to this Section 2.1, such
damages and/or other payments will be applied pro rata against costs
and expenses actually incurred by RTI and Intuit pursuant to this
Section 2.1 (including without limitation fees of attorneys and other
professionals). Thereafter, such damages and/or other payments will be
divided equally between RTI and Intuit.
(d) In the event that RTI develops any software, technology, technical
documentation, design documents, and like materials that are not either
(i) purchased by Intuit pursuant to the APA or (ii) Modifications or
Derivative Technology of the Private Label Software, Retail Pro
Software, or the Enterprise Edition (collectively, the "RTI
TECHNOLOGY"), then RTI will own and will continue to own all right,
title, and interest in and to such RTI Technology, and Intuit obtains
no rights in or to such RTI Technology by operation of this Agreement.

foregoing, if RTI reasonably believes or knows that a user
that purchases three (3) or fewer Inventories has more than
three (3) sites (i.e., is capable of using more than three (3)
Inventories), then RTI will not be obligated to pay the
royalty described in this Section 4.1 (b) with respect to such
copies purchased by such user. If during the period set forth
above an end user purchases more than three Inventories or
more than ten (10) Seats, and RTI knows or should know that
such end user has three or fewer retail sales locations or
fewer than ten (10) Seats at the time of such purchase, then
the royalty set forth in this Section 4.1(b) will apply.
(c) MINIMUM PAYMENT. In the event that any seventy-five
percent (75%) royalty payment payable to Intuit for a given
Inventory of the Retail Pro Software pursuant to this Section
4.1 is less than (i) one thousand dollars ($1,000) for the
"Merchant" edition (and its successor editions) or (ii) seven
hundred and fifty dollars ($750) for the "Shop" edition (and
its successor editions), RTI will pay to Intuit one thousand
dollars ($1,000) for each such Inventory of the merchant
edition and seven hundred and fifty dollars ($750) for each
such Inventory of the shop edition, in lieu of the
seventy-five percent royalty payment set forth above.
4.2 PAYMENT TERMS. Payments will be due and payable within sixty (60)
days of the end of any calendar quarter in which RTI, an Affiliate, or
a Reseller distributes a copy of the Retail Pro Software to an end user
described in Sections 4.1(a) or (b), and will accompany the reports
described in Section 4.3.
4.3 REPORTS AND AUDIT. No later than twenty-one (21) days after the end
of each calendar quarter, RTI will provide to Intuit a report setting
forth for each copy of the Retail Pro Software distributed during that
quarter to an end user by RTI, its Affiliates, or a Reseller: (i) the
number of copies purchased and location of the main copy purchased by
that end user; (ii) for each end user with only one (1) Inventory
within the Restricted Territory, the number of Seats for that end user;
and (iii) the amount charged by RTI to each Reseller or charged by RTI
to the end user where RTI sells directly to such! end user. RTI will
send the reports and any payments due to the Intuit accounts receivable
contact identified in Exhibit A. RTI will collect all data necessary to
provide such reports, and will require its Affiliates and Resellers to
ensure the accuracy of such data collected from them, and will retain
such data for a period of two (2) years from the date of each such
report. Upon ten (10) days' prior written notice and not more than once
in any twelve (12) month period, Intuit will have the right to appoint
an independent auditor to examine such records during RTI's normal
business hours to verify RTI's, its Affiliates, and/or its Resellers'
compliance with Section 2 and this Section 4. In the event that Intuit
learns through any such examination or otherwise that a RTI Affiliate
or a Reseller has distributed the Retail Pro Software and/or the
Enterprise Edition in material breach of Section 2, Intuit will notify
RTI of all such breaches. If Intuit identifies any Reseller that has
committed such material breaches on more than two (2) occasions, at
least one of which occurs after RTI has either notice or knowledge of
the first such violation, then Intuit may, at it's discretion, require
RTI to immediately revoke any right of that Affiliate or Reseller to
distribute the Retail Pro Software and/or the Enterprise Edition. In
the event that Intuit identifies three (3) or more material breaches of
the restrictions set forth in Section 2 during any twelve-month period,
at least one of which occurs after RTI has either notice or knowledge
of at least one (1) such material breach, and such breaches remain
uncured for thirty (30) days after RTI has either notice or knowledge
of such breaches, then Intuit may terminate this Agreement and any and
all licenses granted hereunder; provided that, if any such breach
reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days to cure, and RTI has
begun substantial corrective action to cure the breach within such
thirty (30) day period and diligently pursues such action, such
termination will not be effective unless sixty (60) days have expired
from the date of receipt of notice or knowledge without such corrective
action being completed and the breach remedied. In the event that any
such examination discloses an underpayment of royalties required under
Section 4.1, RTI shall promptly remit the amount of such underpayment
to Intuit. If the underpaid royalties exceeds five percent of the fees
owed, then RTI will also pay the reasonable costs of conducting such
examination.
5. PUBLICITY.
Unless required by law, RTI will not make any public statement, press
release or other announcement relating to the terms of, existence of,
or performance under this Agreement without Intuit's prior written
approval, unless otherwise permitted under the APA.
8
6. CONFIDENTIALITY.
6.1 DEFINITION. "CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION" means: (i) the source code
for the Retail Pro Software and the Enterprise Edition, and all
Modifications thereto; (ii) any business or technical information of
either party, including but not limited to any information relating to
any benchmark tests or other evaluations, product plans, designs,
costs, product prices and names, finances, marketing plans, business
opportunities, personnel, research, or know-how that is designated in
writing as "confidential" or "proprietary" or that a reasonable person
would recognize as confidential under the circumstances of disclosure;
and (iii) the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
6.2 EXCLUSIONS. Confidential Information will not include any
information that: (i) is now, or later becomes, available in the public
domain without the fault of the receiving party; (ii) is disclosed with
the prior written approval of the disclosing party; (iii) is
independently developed by the receiving party without use of or access
to any Confidential Information, as indicated by the receiving party's
written records; (iv) the receiving party can demonstrate to have had
rightfully in its possession without an obligation of confidentiality
prior to disclosure; or (v) the receiving party rightfully obtains from
a third party who has the right to transfer or disclose it and who
provides it without a confidentiality obligation.
6.3 RESTRICTIONS. Neither party will use any Confidential Information
of the other party except to carry out the purpose of this Agreement.
During the term of the Agreement and for a period of five (5) years
thereafter, each party will maintain the Confidential Information in
confidence and will employ reasonable steps to protect the Confidential
Information from unauthorized or inadvertent disclosure or unauthorized
use, including but not limited to all steps that the receiving party
takes to protect its own information of similar importance that it
considers to be proprietary and trade secret. Neither party will
disclose the other party's Confidential Information to any third person
except as permitted under Section 6.4. Each party will instruct all
such employees in advance that they must abide by the restrictions set
forth in this Agreement, and will require any subcontractors given
access to the Confidential Information to execute written agreements
binding them to these terms.
6.4 LIMITATIONS. Notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions on use and
disclosure of Confidential Information, each party may disclose
Confidential Information (i) to the extent required by a court of
competent jurisdiction or other governmental authority to which it is
subject, or otherwise as required by law, provided that the party
required to make such disclosure notifies the other party and uses
reasonable efforts to obtain confidential treatment of the disclosed
information or a protective order before such disclosure; (ii) on a
"need-to-know" basis to its legal counsel and accountants who are under
an obligation of confidentiality; (iii) to its subcontractors on a
"need to know" basis and solely for purposes of meeting its obligations
under this Agreement provided that such subcontractors agree in writing
to comply with confidentiality obligations and use restrictions
substantially similar to those set forth herein; or (iv) to other
parties that agree in writing to comply with confidentiality
obligations and use restrictions substantially similar to those set
forth herein, provided that the disclosing party obtains the prior
written consent of the non-disclosing party to such disclosure, which
consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
7. INDEMNIFICATION.
7.1 INDEMNIFICATION BY RTI. RTI will defend, indemnify and hold
harmless Intuit, its Affiliates, and its and their officers, directors,
employees, and Resellers from and against any and all loss, damage,
liabilities, settlement, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal
fees) as incurred, to the extent resulting from any third party claims
arising from (i) any agreement between RTI and any third party
pertaining to the Retail Pro Software, the Enterprise Edition, or the
Tools and Other Software; or (ii) allegations that any Modification
created by or for RTI or an Affiliate of RTI, infringes upon,
misappropriates or violates any Intellectual Property Rights or other
proprietary rights of any third party; or (iii) RTI's, its Affiliate's,
a Reseller of RTI, or its or their sublicensees' exercise of any of the
rights granted by this Agreement. Intuit will provide RTI with prompt
written notice of any such claim and permit RTI to control the defense,
settlement, adjustment or compromise of any such claim. Intuit counsel
may, at Intuit's expense, participate in the defense of any such claim;
provided, however, that if such counsel is necessary because of a
conflict of interest of either RTI or its counsel or because RTI does
not assume control, RTI will bear the expense of such Intuit counsel.
Settlement of any claim described in this Section 7.1 shall be subject
to Intuit's prior consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld. It
will be reasonable for Intuit to withhold consent if (i) the settlement
requires Intuit to pay any amounts not actually indemnified by RTI
hereunder; (ii) the settlement restricts Intuit's ability to utilize,
in any manner, the Retail Pro Software, the Enterprise Edition, the
Private Label Software, or any Modifications.
9
7.2 INDEMNIFICATION BY INTUIT. Intuit will defend, indemnify and hold
harmless RTI, its Affiliates, and its and their officers, directors,
employees, and Resellers from and against any and all loss, damage,
liabilities, settlement, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal
fees) as incurred, to the extent resulting from or arising out of any
third party claim arising from any breach by Intuit of this Agreement.
RTI will provide Intuit with prompt written notice of any such claim
and permit Intuit to control the defense, settlement, adjustment or
compromise of any such claim. RTI counsel may, at RTI's expense,
participate in the defense of any such claim; provided, however, that
if such counsel is necessary because of a conflict of interest of
either Intuit or its counsel or because Intuit does not assume control,
Intuit will bear the expense of such RTI counsel.
8. WARRANTY DISCLAIMER.
THE RETAIL PRO SOFTWARE, ENTER RISE EDITION, AND MODIFICATIONS ARE

RETAIL PRO SOFTWARE OR ENTERPRISE EDITION OR FOR ANY ERROR OR DEFECT IN

SUCH LIABILITY ARISES FROM A CLAIM BASED UPON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT
(INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, AND WHETHER OR

DAMAGE. THE PARTIES HAVE AGREED THAT THESE LIMITATIONS WILL SURVIVE AND
APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY SPECIFIED IN THIS AGREEMENT IS FOUND
TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
10. TERM AND TERMINATION.
10.1 TERM. This Agreement will commence upon the Effective Date and
continue until terminated in accordance with Sections 4.3, 10.2, or
10.3.
10.2 TERMINATION FOR BREACH. Either party may terminate this Agreement
and/or the exclusivity granted in Section 3 due to material breach of
this Agreement by the other party if such breach remains uncured for
thirty (30) days following written notice to the breaching party by the

such corrective action being completed and the breach remedied. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties acknowledge and
agree that one method RTI may employ to cure a material breach by an
Affiliate, a Reseller or sublicensee of RTI is for RTI to promptly

remedy will be exercisable in RTI's sole discretion, except in the
event that (i) Intuit directs such termination or revocation in

the only reasonable cure.

Enterprise Edition, Modifications, and any Confidential Information of
Intuit in RTI's possession or control, and an officer of RTI will
certify in writing to Intuit that all such copies and Confidential
Information have been returned to Intuit or destroyed. In addition,
within five (5) days after any termination or expiration of this
Agreement, each party will, at its expense, ship to the other party or
destroy (including purging from any system or storage media) any
Confidential Information of the other party in such party's possession
or control, and an officer of such party will certify in writing to the
other party that all such copies and Confidential Information have been

damages would not be adequate compensation. Consequently, the
non-breaching party may institute an action to enjoin the breaching
party from any and all acts in violation of Section 6

number of its employees required to exercise RTI's rights under this Agreement
("AUTHORIZED EMPLOYEES").
NEED-TO-KNOW. Authorized Employees must have a need-to-know to access source

RTI OVERSIGHT OF AUTHORIZED EMPLOYEES. RTI must cause Authorized Employees to
strictly abide by their obligations under this Agreement. RTJ must use the same
efforts to protect the confidentiality obligations of each Authorized Employee
after the termination of his/her employment as RTI uses to enforce its own
confidential information. RTI will not, however, use less than reasonable
efforts in such enforcement. In any claim or legal action by Intuit regarding a
former Authorized Employee's obligations under this Exhibit D, RTI will, at its
own expense, provide Intuit with all reasonable assistance and cooperation.

provided such backup copies are stored only on external storage media kept
within a secured location at an RTI site. RTI may not make archive copies of the
source code.
ASSOCIATED INFORMATION. All associated information (minutes from meetings,
engineering notebooks, etc.) containing source code must be treated in the same
manner as source code. Logs. RTI will maintain a paper or electronic log of all

MAINTENANCE AND SUPPORT
-----------------------
1. DEFINITIONS
"ERROR" means a defect, or combination of defects, in the Retail Pro Software
that result in a failure of the Retail Pro Software when used in accordance with
the applicable documentation and specifications. For any alleged defect to be an
"Error" hereunder, RTI must provide to Intuit a copy of the defect and all data
and documentation pertaining to the defect, in electronic format, as reasonably
required in order for Intuit to reproduce and efficiently correct the alleged
defect. At Intuit's request, one or more RTI technicians will come to Intuit's
place of business in order to assist in reproducing any alleged defects. If
Intuit reasonably concludes that an alleged defect does not constitute a
material error or flaw in the coding of the Retail Pro Software, such alleged
defect will not be treated as an Error. Subject to the foregoing, once an
alleged defect is clearly defmed and reproducible, it will be will be classified
as follows:
PRIORITY 1 ERROR: The Error (i) renders the Retail Pro Software inoperative or
causes a complete failure of the Retail Pro Software for multiple individual end
users; or (ii) affects the performance of the Retail Pro Software, or restricts
RTI's use of the Retail Pro Software (for example, important Retail Pro Software
features are unavailable with no acceptable workaround) for multiple individual
end users.
PRIORITY 2 ERROR: The Error (i) renders the Retail Pro Software inoperative or
causes a complete failure of the Retail Pro Software for an individual end user;
(ii) affects the performance of the Retail Pro Software, or restricts RTI's use
of the Retail Pro Software (for example, important Retail Pro Software features
are unavailable with no acceptable workaround) for an individual end user; or
(iii) causes only a minor impact on RTI's use (either for an individual or
multiple end user(s)) of the Retail Pro Software.
"ERROR CORRECTION" means a bug fix, patch, or other modification or addition
that, when made or added to the Retail Pro Software, corrects an Error.
"SUPPORT SERVICES" means the support and maintenance services provided by Intuit
to RTI pursuant to this Exhibit, as further described herein.
2. SUPPORT RESPONSIBILITY
2.1 ERROR REPORTING. From the Effective Date through the four-month anniversary
of the Effective Date, Intuit will use commercially reasonable efforts to

such Error Corrections available to any of its end user customers receiving
maintenance and support services from Intuit, (ii) reasonable telephone, fax and
