and BHS, and set forth in Change Orders. CFN shall only be obligated to
perform such additional services,
6
duties and tasks as to which it shall agree in writing in such Change
Orders. Unless otherwise specified, Change Orders shall be governed by the
terms and conditions of this Agreement.
5. DEVELOPMENT OF THE APPLICATIONS
5.1 CFN agrees to use its best efforts to develop, produce and license
to BHS the Applications, as described in the SCHEDULE A: DESCRIPTION OF
APPLICATIONS, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth.
5.2 BHS shall procure and purchase all OEM Products, including but not
limited to the OEM Products set forth in SCHEDULE F: SUPPORTED PLATFORMS
or described in SCHEDULE A: DESCRIPTION OF APPLICATIONS directly from
their respective producers or their designated distributors or vendors,
without the involvement of CFN. BHS also shall be solely responsible for
the operation and maintenance of the OEM Products, and the timely
procurement, operation and maintenance of the OEM Products shall be a
continuing condition of CFN's obligations to develop and deliver the
Applications and to provide the Implementation Services and the Support
Services. CFN shall not be responsible for any delay or failure to
complete the development of any Application, or failure to operate properly
of any Application, which failure or delay results from the use of OEM
Products other than those set forth in SCHEDULE F: SUPPORTED PLATFORMS
or described in SCHEDULE A: DESCRIPTION OF APPLICATIONS or otherwise
designated by CFN, or from the malfunction of any OEM Product.
5.3 The Applications shall be developed substantially in accordance with
the requirements set forth in SCHEDULE A: DESCRIPTION OF APPLICATIONS;
however, CFN and BHS acknowledge that there may be variations in the
Applications from the description in SCHEDULE A: DESCRIPTION OF
APPLICATIONS to which the parties shall agree in writing during the course
of the development of the Applications (which writings shall be
incorporated by reference into and become a part of this Agreement). CFN
agrees to proceed promptly with the development of the Applications, and
the parties agree that it is an objective that the Applications will be
operational and ready for BHS's use approximately six months after the
effective start date described in SCHEDULE C: IMPLEMENTATION PROJECT PLAN.
CFN shall provide the Applications in Object Code. CFN shall deliver such
Documentation as it shall determine is required in connection with each
Application on or before the commencement of the Live Test Period.
5.4 Upon receipt of notice from CFN that a Milestone, as set forth in
SCHEDULE C: IMPLEMENTATION PROJECT PLAN has been achieved, BHS shall
promptly commence such acceptance testing as described in Section 5.5
hereunder of the developments achieved, and shall notify CFN in writing as
soon as practicable, and, in any event, not later than 15 business days
after the delivery of the notice of the Milestone by CFN to BHS, as to
whether or not the developments achieved are acceptable to BHS. In the
event of BHS's failure to so advise CFN in writing within such time period,
such Milestone will be deemed to have been achieved and accepted by BHS.
BHS shall accept the Applications and the developments achieved at each
Milestone unless they fail in material respects to meet the acceptance test
criteria established pursuant to Section 5.5. In the event the
7
Applications or any development achieved in accordance with SCHEDULE A:
DESCRIPTION OF APPLICATIONS are not accepted by BHS, BHS's notice shall
specify in detail in what respects the Application or the development fails
to so conform with the terms of this Agreement and SCHEDULE A: DESCRIPTION
OF APPLICATIONS , subject to any agreed upon variations as noted in Section
5.3.
5.5 Applications and the developments to be completed at each Milestone
shall be tested in accordance with a procedure agreed upon in writing by
BHS and CFN. Such procedure shall (i) be based on the intended input,
output, and operation of the Applications and such developments as set
forth in SCHEDULE A: DESCRIPTION OF APPLICATIONS, (ii) include criteria
for determining the time for commencement of the Live Test Period, and
(iii) be incorporated by reference into and become a part of this
Agreement. CFN shall deliver to BHS on or prior to the Milestones a
statement defining the testing procedures and requirements for each
development or completed Application, which statement shall be subject to
the written approval of BHS. BHS shall review such statement and give its
approval or suggested changes, in reasonable detail, in writing within 10
days of receipt of the statement. If BHS does not respond in writing to
the statement within such 10 day period, the statement will be deemed to
have been accepted by BHS. CFN and BHS shall use their best efforts to
agree to a procedure and requirements for acceptance testing in accordance
with the foregoing.
5.6 In the event that any development or Application is not accepted
pursuant to Sections 5.3 - 5.5 above, CFN shall promptly proceed to make
any corrections which are required by this Agreement in order to meet such
acceptance test criteria and BHS shall repeat the applicable acceptance
test in accordance with such Sections until such development or Application
meets, in all in material respects, the acceptance test criteria
established pursuant to Section 5.5.
5.7 BHS shall promptly notify CFN if at any time during the acceptance
testing, BHS becomes aware that any development or Application being
tested does not meet the acceptance test criteria established pursuant to
Section 5.5.
5.8 The acceptance testing shall be conducted on the OEM Hardware at the
BHS Facilities. CFN reserves the right to participate in the acceptance
testing in order to monitor such testing and to demonstrate that any of the
developments or Applications conform to the acceptance test criteria. BHS
agrees to cooperate with CFN in connection with the acceptance testing.
5.9.1 Each party shall designate a Project Manager who shall be available
to consult with each other to resolve any problems and provide any
information reasonably required in connection with the development and
operation of the Applications during their development and throughout any
period for which CFN is obligated to provide Support Service pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement. The individual designated by either party as
its Project Manager may be changed from time to time by such party, in its
sole discretion.
5.9.2 All reports, notices and communications related to the
Applications, including determinations and notices of Acceptances, and the
Implementation Project Plan shall be
8
delivered by, and directed to, the respective Project Managers.
6. SOFTWARE LICENSE.
6.1 Subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, CFN hereby
grants to BHS a nonexclusive, nontransferable license for use of the
Applications solely by the Permitted Users (the "License") for the
Permitted Uses.
6.2 The License to use Applications shall be subject to payment of the
license fees and compliance with usage limitations specified in SCHEDULE E:
SOFTWARE FEES AND SCHEDULE OF PAYMENTS exclusively on the Supported
Platforms for the Permitted Uses.
6.3 The Applications may be accessed and used only from locations
within the BHS Facilities and the BHS Affiliates Facilities.
6.4 Commencing with the achievement of the first Milestone, the
Applications may be used solely for testing and training purposes by
accessing a designated database that has been set up for testing or
training purposes. Subject only to the performance of the tests to be
performed during the Live Test Period, in no event shall such use permit
BHS to access the "live" or production version of the Applications or to
use the Applications to process any live patient database.
6.5 Commencing with the payment in full of the respective License fees
and the Implementation Service fees set forth in SCHEDULE E: SOFTWARE FEES
AND SCHEDULE OF PAYMENTS, the License shall be effective with regard to use
of the respective Applications for "live" operational purposes.
6.6 The License for each Applications shall be perpetual with regard to
the number of processors set forth on SCHEDULE E: SOFTWARE FEES AND
SCHEDULE OF PAYMENTS.
6.7 Notwithstanding Section 6.6, if BHS does not use any Application for
a period of six (6) months for any reason, the License for such Application
shall terminate automatically at the end of such six (6) month period.
BHS shall notify CFN if it discontinues the use of any Application, but the
failure of BHS to so notify CFN shall not affect the applicability of this
section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if BHS notifies CFN that it
intends to suspend or delay initiation of use of an Application for one (1)
period of up to six (6) months, the provisions of the first sentence of
this section shall not be applicable for the period as to which such
notice was given.
6.8 Should BHS desire to increase the number of processors (or users)
subject to the License for any Application, it shall notify CFN in writing
and an additional license fee for each such additional processor in an
amount equal to the per-processor (or user) fee set forth on SCHEDULE E:
SOFTWARE FEES AND SCHEDULE OF PAYMENTS shall be paid prior to the
activation or use of any Application on such additional processors.
However, BHS may not add processors to the License for any Application that
depends for its operation on another Application or Applications unless it
adds the same number of processors to the License(s) for such other
Application(s). For example, it may add processors for
9
middleware Applications if it has added processors for all back-end
Applications and for front-end Applications if it has added processors for
all back-end and middleware Applications, as such Applications are
described in SCHEDULE E: SOFTWARE FEES AND SCHEDULE OF PAYMENTS.
6.9 BHS may prepare a reasonable number of copies of the Applications for
internal use, solely for archival and backup purposes. All copies of
Software and Documentation shall contain the proprietary notices appearing
on the copies initially furnished by CFN and shall be subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement. BHS must maintain an accurate record of
the location of such backup copies at all times. Such record may be
inspected and verified by CFN at any time during normal business hours
(9:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. local time).
6.10 No Application shall be changed or modified, other than by CFN,
without the prior written consent of CFN.
6.11 A Minor Release shall be deemed to be subject to, and included in,
the License for the Applications to which such Minor Release relates. A
Major Release shall be deemed to be a new software application. BHS shall
have the option to obtain a license for any Major Release or any other new
software application or product for which CFN makes licenses available on a
non-exclusive basis, on the terms set forth on SCHEDULE E: SOFTWARE FEES
AND SCHEDULE OF PAYMENTS.
6.12 BHS may not grant any sublicense to any License granted to it by CFN.
6.13 CFN shall include copyright, proprietary and/ or trade secret notices
on or with the Applications and Documentation, and BHS shall not remove or
modify any such notice and shall maintain, reproduce and include all such
copyright, proprietary and/ or trade secret notices on all copies,
including backup copies, of the Applications and any media containing the
Applications or any part thereof.
6.14 Upon Acceptance of any Application, CFN shall deliver the Source
Code corresponding to the subject Application to an escrow agent, which
shall be such firm or person as to whom the parties shall mutually agree,
pursuant to an escrow agreement. The Source Code for the Applications
included in the escrow shall be updated by CFN at any time any Minor
Release or other modification is delivered to BHS and not less frequently
than semi-annually, including all changes to the Source Code since the
previous deposit. The escrow agreement shall provide, among other things,
that the Source Code shall be delivered to BHS only in the event of (i) as
to all the Applications, (A) a filing by CFN of a voluntary petition in
bankruptcy or a petition or an answer seeking reorganization, or an
arrangement with creditors, or the entering against CFN of a court order
approving a petition filed against it under the Federal bankruptcy laws,
which order shall not have been vacated or set aside or otherwise
terminated within sixty (60) days, or (B) a cessation of business
activities by CFN, or (ii) as to any particular Application, if CFN
discontinues Support Services for such Application AND does not make
available a successor product with a "migratory" transition capability;
provided, that at the time of the occurrence of an event set forth in
clause (i) or (ii) above, the Applications are subject to Software Support
agreements and provided, further, that such
10
Source Code, if so delivered, shall be used by BHS solely in connection
with its use of the Applications and not for sale to others or for any
other purposes.
7. OBLIGATIONS OF BHS.
In connection with the development of the Applications and provision of the
Support Services by CFN hereunder, BHS shall, in addition to its other
obligations hereunder, provide for, or perform, the following at BHS's own
cost and expense:
7.1 BHS will, within the timeframe set forth in SCHEDULE C:

which shall be set forth as SCHEDULE G: BHS FACILITIES not later than the
date of the first Milestone and shall promptly provide CFN with revisions
of such schedule reflecting any additions or deletions of such facilities
as they occur. The use of the Applications at or from any location other
than a BHS Facility set forth on such schedule, as revised from time to
time, or a BHS Affiliates Facility solely by means of Web browser
technology, shall not constitute a Permitted Use.
8. SUPPORT SERVICES.
8.1 CFN shall provide BHS with the Support Services set forth in
SCHEDULE D: SUPPORT SERVICES upon the terms and conditions set forth below.
8.2 The Support Services for each Application shall be provided on an
annual basis, commencing upon the first of the month immediately following
the Live Date of each Application, for a minimum of one (1) year, and shall
thereafter be automatically renewed on a yearly basis, unless BHS provides
CFN at least 60 days' advance notice prior to the annual renewal
anniversary date of its intent not to renew the Support Services; provided,
however, that as to any annual period commencing three (3) years from the
applicable Live Date, CFN may notify BHS, on not less than 90 days prior
11
written notice of its intention to terminate the availability of Support
Services, or change the nature of the Support Services or the fees therefor
at the end of the then current annual period.
8.3 BHS may choose whether or not to renew the Support Services for the
Applications on an individual basis; provided, however, it may not renew

of the Support Services relating to existing Applications.
8.5 CFN shall not be obligated to provide Support Services hereunder with
regard to any Application (or for any other Application that depends for
its operation on such Application) if such Application has been changed or
modified other than in compliance with Section 6.10, or if any platforms or
OEM Products are used other than those set forth in SCHEDULE F: SUPPORTED
PLATFORMS or described in SCHEDULE A: DESCRIPTION OF APPLICATIONS or

"Attention: Accounts Receivable."
9.3 CFN has been advised that BHS currently is exempt from the payment of
certain taxes under applicable federal and state laws. However, BHS is
responsible for all taxes,
12
however designated, measured or based on this Agreement, the Applications,
the License and the Support Services, including state or local sales and
use taxes, privilege or excise taxes, and any taxes or amounts in lieu
thereof paid or payable in respect of the foregoing, if any, but excluding
any Federal, state or local taxes levied against or measured by the net
income of CFN.
9.4 Payments more than 10 days past due shall bear interest at a rate

or (b) the highest rate of interest allowable under applicable law. The
interest on any past due amount shall be referred to as the "Late Charge."
10. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS; PROPRIETARY INFORMATION.
10.1 BHS acknowledges that all developments, Applications and other work
products developed by CFN for BHS pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise,
including those that may be subject to intellectual property protection,
including patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark or other proprietary
protection, shall be owned by CFN (or CFN's third party licensors, as the
case may be) exclusively. All Software and Documentation delivered to BHS
by CFN shall be subject to the restrictions of this Section 10.
10.2 BHS agrees to take any reasonable steps necessary to protect the
proprietary rights of CFN (and CFN's suppliers or licensors), including but
not limited to the display of patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret
and other proprietary notices provided by CFN (and CFN's suppliers or
licensors) on any copies, including backup copies, of the Applications and
the Documentation. BHS agrees to take reasonable steps, at its own cost and
expense, to keep the Applications and the Documentation free and clear of,
or to remove, any claims, liens and legal processes of third parties of
BHS, including creditors of BHS.
10.3 BHS agrees to keep confidential the Applications, the Documentation,
all specifications regarding the Applications, and all discussions,
presentations and correspondence involving CFN's business or product plans
and agrees not to disclose, sell, rent, reproduce or otherwise make all or
any portion of these available to third parties unless all of the following
conditions are met: 1) such disclosure is reasonably required in the
operation or support of the Applications at BHS; 2) such parties are
agents of BHS; and 3) such third parties have signed a confidential
disclosure agreement to the satisfaction of CFN directly with CFN. CFN
agrees to keep confidential all discussions, presentations and
correspondence involving BHS's business and agrees not to disclose, sell,
rent, reproduce or otherwise make all or any portion of these available to
third parties unless all of the following conditions are met: 1) such
disclosure is reasonably required in the operation or support of the
Applications at BHS; 2) such parties are agents of CFN; and 3) such
third parties have signed a confidential disclosure agreement to the
satisfaction of BHS directly with BHS.
10.4 Each party shall take the same precautions for protecting
confidential or
13
proprietary information belonging to the other party as it does for its own
information of a confidential or proprietary nature. To the extent either
party's employees, agents and representatives are exposed to confidential
information belonging to or in the custody of the other party, such persons
shall take all reasonable steps to keep such information confidential. If
requested, a party shall demonstrate to the other party that its employees,
consultants and agents are obligated to it in writing to so protect the
other party's confidential information. On notice of disclosure or
possible breach of confidentiality, each party agrees to cooperate with the
other for the purpose of injunctive relief and providing other relief to
protect the interests of the injured party. The foregoing does not apply
to any information: (i) currently in the public domain or rightfully in
the possession of such party, (ii) subsequently entering the public domain
for any reason other than a party's failure to meet its obligations under
this Agreement, (iii) rightfully acquired by a party without obligation of
confidentiality, and (iv) independently developed by a party without use
of the other party's confidential information. In the event that either
party becomes legally compelled (by interrogatories, subpoena, civil
investigative demand or similar process) to make any disclosure that is
prohibited by this Agreement, each party agrees that it will provide the
other party with prompt notice of such event so that the other party may
seek an appropriate protective order or other prompt appropriate remedy
and/or waive compliance with the provision of this section. In the event
that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or a party
grants a waiver hereunder, the other party may furnish only that
information that, in the written opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable
to the party whose information may be subject to disclosure, the disclosing
party is legally compelled to disclose or else be subject to liability for
contempt or suffer other censure or penalty; provided, however, that the
disclosing party shall use its best efforts to obtain reasonable assurance
that, to the extent legally possible, confidential treatment will be
accorded any information so disclosed.
10.5 BHS shall not disassemble, decompile or reverse engineer the
Applications; nor shall BHS reproduce, sell, license or rent the
Applications or derivative works based on the Applications or similar to
the Applications to any third parties. BHS may use the open interfaces
provided with the Applications using the Interface Definition Language
(IDL) to use or develop other software applications.
11. WARRANTIES; INDEMNIFICATION.
11.1 CFN represents and warrants to BHS as follows:
11.1.1 CFN has full power and authority to enter into and perform
this Agreement.
11.1.2 CFN owns or has sufficient rights in and to the Applications
to grant the license granted in this Agreement. The materials to be
provided to BHS hereunder shall be original, except for material in
the public domain and such excerpts from other works as may be
included with the written permission of the copyright, patent or
trademark owners; CFN has the right to disclose to BHS all
information and materials made available to BHS in the course of
performing this Agreement. To the best of CFN's knowledge, such
materials do not infringe any
14
trade name, trademark, patent or copyright or other proprietary right
or other common law or statutory right of any third party.
11.1.3 On their respective Live Dates and on such subsequent dates
upon which additional Documentation, Minor Releases or other written
materials are provided by CFN, each Application shall conform in all
material respects to the specifications set forth on SCHEDULE A:
DESCRIPTION OF APPLICATIONS and the Documentation and any other
written materials related thereto provided by CFN in effect as of
such dates.
11.1.3 On their respective Live Dates, each Application shall be
clear of any time bombs, viruses or disabling features.
11.1.4 The occurrence in, or the use of the Applications of dates on
or after January 1, 2000 (the "Millennial Dates") will not adversely
affect the performance of the Applications with respect to date
dependent data, computations, output or other functions, including
but not limited to calculating, computing and sequencing, and the
Applications will create store and generate output data related to or
including the Millennial Dates without errors or omissions.
11.2 In the event any Application is changed or modified other than by CFN
(except in accordance with Section 6.10) is used with any hardware or
software other than the OEM Products set forth in SCHEDULE F: SUPPORTED
PLATFORMS or described in SCHEDULE A: DESCRIPTION OF APPLICATIONS or
otherwise designated in writing by CFN, then any representation or warranty
of CFN with regard to such Application (and any other Application that
depends for its operability on such Application) shall be void.
11.3 BHS represents and warrants to CFN as follows:
11.3.1 BHS has full power and authority to enter into and perform
this Agreement and to grant the rights granted in this Agreement.
11.3.2 BHS has the right to disclose to CFN all information and
materials made available to CFN in the course of performing this
Agreement.
11.4 THE WARRANTIES EXPRESSED IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE SOFTWARE, HARDWARE AND OTHER
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT INCLUDING, BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
11.5. CFN shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless BHS and BHS's
subsidiaries, affiliates, officers and directors, or otherwise dispose
of, at its sole cost and expense, including reasonable attorneys' fees, any
and all losses, damages to persons or property, liabilities, costs,
charges, and expenses (collectively, "losses") solely to the extent that
such losses result from any claim, suit or proceeding brought against BHS
that alleges
15
that the Applications, as delivered and installed in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement, infringes any patent or copyright, and to pay the
amount of any judgment or settlement, provided that BHS gives CFN prompt
notice of such claim, suit or proceeding and gives CFN full information and
reasonable assistance in its defense or settlement. CFN shall be entitled
to direct such defense and to settle or otherwise dispose of such claim,
suit or proceeding as it sees fit. If, however, any Application becomes
subject to any such claim, or there is any threat of any such claim, CFN
may, at its option, obtain for BHS the right to continue using the
Application or make any modifications of, or substitutions to, the
Application which are necessary to make it noninfringing, provided that
such modifications or substitutions do not materially compromise the
functionality of such Application. BHS's cooperation with CFN at CFN's
request, in accordance with this Section, shall be at CFN's expense. No
costs or expenses shall be incurred for the account of CFN without its
prior written consent. BHS may participate with CFN in BHS's own defense
in such claim, suit or proceeding, at BHS's option at its sole expense.
11.6 BHS shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless CFN, and CFN's
subsidiaries, affiliates, officers and directors, from, or otherwise
dispose of, at its sole cost and expense, including reasonable attorneys'
fees, any and all losses, damages to persons or property, liabilities,
costs, charges, and expenses (collectively, "losses") solely to the extent
that such losses result from BHS's negligent acts or omissions in using the
Applications. Subject to the next sentence, the foregoing indemnity shall
not be applicable to any claim that the Applications or the use thereof by
BHS violate any person's patent, copyright or other proprietary right.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, BHS agrees to indemnify, defend and hold
harmless CFN, CFN's and CFN's subsidiaries, affiliates, officers and
directors, from, or otherwise dispose of, at its sole cost and expense,
including reasonable attorneys' fees, any and all losses incurred as a
result of a claim based on modifications or changes to the Applications
made other than by CFN (except in accordance with Section 6.10).
11.7 Each party will name the other ( to the extent required to afford
coverage to the other party under the naming party's policy) as an
additional named insured to the naming party's general liability insurance
coverage. The extension of coverage shall not apply to the additional
insured's losses arising wholly or (to the extent of such partial
liability) partly from its own liability, or that of its agents, affiliates
or subsidiaries. The coverage afforded by the additional insured
endorsement shall be limited to the additional insured's legal liability
for the losses set forth in Sections 11.5 and 11.6.
12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
12.1 In the event that the Applications do not perform substantially in
accordance with the description set forth in SCHEDULE A: DESCRIPTION OF
APPLICATIONS and/or the Documentation, CFN shall at its sole cost and
expense for a period of four (4) months after Acceptance of the
Applications by BHS pursuant to Section 5.5, promptly after notice by BHS,
correct any errors, defects, or nonconformities in the Applications. In the
event the nonconforming Application does not meet, in all in material
respects, the acceptance test criteria established pursuant to Section 5.5,
BHS shall receive a refund equal to 50% of the aggregate of the license and
Support Service fees for such
16
Application actually paid by BHS. CFN shall have no obligation to correct
any errors, defects, or nonconformities in the Applications if the
Applications have been changed or modified other than by CFN (except in
accordance with Section 6.10), if the Applications have been used with OEM
Products other than those set forth in SCHEDULE F: SUPPORTED PLATFORMS
or described in SCHEDULE A: DESCRIPTION OF APPLICATIONS or otherwise
designated by CFN, or the nonconformity, defect, or error relates to any
item which was tested in the acceptance tests pursuant to Section 5.5,
unless Acceptance of the Application was conditioned, in writing, upon the
correction of such nonconformity. The foregoing shall be CFN's sole
liability and responsibility in the event of any defects, errors, or
nonconformities in the Applications.
12.2 Neither party shall be liable to the other for incidental, indirect,
special or consequential damages, or for lost profits, savings or revenues
of any kind, whether or not it has been advised of the possibility of such
damages.
12.3 The remedies set forth throughout this Agreement constitute the
parties' sole and exclusive remedies and entire liability in the event of a
breach and/or termination of this Agreement or any Schedule to this
Agreement.
12.4 Except in the event of a breach of the representations and warranties
set forth in Sections 11.1.2 and 11.1.4, in no event shall CFN's liability
to BHS or any person claiming through BHS, or as a result of the authorized
or unauthorized use of the Applications by or through BHS, exceed in the
aggregate the license and Support Service fees actually paid to CFN
hereunder.
13. INSPECTION RIGHTS.
During the term of this Agreement or any agreement pursuant to which CFN
is providing Support Services to BHS and for a period of five (5) business
days after the last of this Agreement or any such Support Service agreement
to expire:
13.1 CFN shall have the right to inspect the BHS Facilities during normal
business hours (9:00 A.M. to 5:00 P. M., local time), on not less than five
(5) business days written notice, in order to audit the identity of the
users of the Applications, the location and number of processors upon which
the Applications are being accessed and the uses of the Applications.
13.2 CFN may, at its sole discretion, choose to automatically monitor,
audit and enforce compliance of BHS's use of the Applications in conformity
with the license usage conditions through features built into the
Applications or through remote access of the Applications. CFN shall
disclose to BHS if and when such monitoring is initiated and shall notify
BHS of its intention to "dial-in" to BHS's information management
facilities. CFN shall not disable the Applications or any other software
or hardware of BHS in the process of such monitoring.
14. RISK OF LOSS.
17
Subsequent to Acceptance Date of the Applications by BHS, BHS shall be
responsible for the Applications and all associated Documentation, and bear
the risk of loss for the same. CFN will maintain a backup copy of the
Applications and the related Documentation in the form delivered to BHS,
and as updated or modified by CFN from time to time, and shall provide a
copy to BHS at BHS's cost and expense (at CFN's standard rates for time and
materials) in the event of loss by BHS.
15. CAUSES BEYOND THE PARTIES' CONTROL.
15.1 Neither party shall be liable for delay or failure to perform its
obligations herein set forth nor shall either party be held to have
breached any of its obligation hereunder by reason of any delay or failure,
if such delay or failure is due to any cause or condition beyond its
reasonable control. Such causes or conditions shall include, without
limitation, acts of God or of the public enemy, acts of the Federal or any
state or local government or agency in either its sovereign or contractual
capacity, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restriction, strikes,
negligence or other fault of the other party or any delay or failure on the
other party's part in the performance of any of its obligations or giving
of any approvals hereunder, refusal or inability of a common carrier to
provide communications capabilities, earthquakes, energy, or materials,
freight embargoes, delays in transportation, unusually severe weather, or
other circumstances beyond either party's control, or any delay or failure
of any supplier or subcontractor of CFN resulting from any of the above;
provided, however, that the foregoing shall not excuse either party from
its obligations under this Agreement to protect the other's proprietary
information. Any time for performance under this Agreement shall be
mutually agreed upon and extended for a period of time equal to any time
lost by reason of such delay. Either party shall promptly inform the other
of any such delays and corresponding extension in agreement in writing.
15.2 In the event that CFN's failure to meet any performance date is
caused by BHS's failure to meet its obligations under the terms of this
Agreement, such CFN failure shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement.
16. TERMINATION.
16.1 In the event that the Implementation Project Plan is delayed more
than 30 days, except as a result of CFN's excused performance under
Section 15.1 or breach of this Agreement by BHS, BHS may terminate this
Agreement if within 15 days after BHS notice of an intent to terminate
under this Section 16.1, CFN does not commence to perform its obligations
under this Agreement and diligently continue such performance without
further delay or interruption. Upon such termination, neither party shall
have any further obligation to the other, and no amounts previously paid to
CFN shall be refundable; provided however, that if CFN has not given notice
of accomplishment of the first Milestone, BHS shall receive a refund equal
to 50% of the initial payment made to CFN pursuant to SCHEDULE E: SOFTWARE
FEES AND SCHEDULE OF PAYMENTS, Section 1.2.1.

18
occurrence of an Event of Default. The following events shall be deemed to

the assets of a party, or

termination shall be immediate, the License with regard to all
Applications shall be terminated, and BHS shall immediately cease to
use the Applications and shall destroy all copies of the
Applications and the Documentation.
16.2.4.2 In the event of a breach of any term or condition of this
Agreement other than as set forth in Sections 6 or 10, if written
notice specifying the nature of such breach has been given and such
breach has not been cured within 60 days after receipt of such
notice, or if such breach is of a nature that it cannot be cured
within such 60 day period or the breaching party has not commenced to
proceed to cure such default within such said 60 day period;
provided, however, that if such breach shall be of any obligation to
timely pay any amount due hereunder, the cure period shall be 30
days.
16.3 Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason other than
non-payment by BHS or breach by BHS of any term or condition of Sections 6
or 10 of this Agreement, should BHS request CFN's assistance, CFN shall
