AGREEMENT
| 1. | Consulting Services |
1.1 Performance of Services. SFDC agrees to perform the Services specified in any Statement of Services attached hereto in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any terms and conditions set forth on any such Statement of Services. The initial Statement of Services has been attached hereto as Exhibit A. Each Statement of Services shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement and shall become binding upon execution by each of the Parties and, upon execution, is hereby incorporated in this Agreement by reference.

| 2. | Payment |
2.1 Fees. The Services shall be provided on a time and materials basis; that is, the Company shall pay SFDC, on a Company fiscal quarterly basis, for all time spent by SFDC personnel in performing the Services for the benefit of the Company, plus SFDC’s out-of-pocket cost for materials used in performing such Services (“Materials Costs”) and SFDC’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in performing the Services that have been pre-approved by the Company (“Expenses”). The rates for SFDC personnel time shall be SFDC’s standard consulting fees as set forth in the fee schedule in Exhibit B. SFDC represents that the fees charged for the Services performed hereunder are at least as favorable as that charged to any other customer for the same or similar services.
2.2 Payment Method. The Company shall pay SFDC by wire transfer in U.S. Dollars to the bank account designated by SFDC for payment. Such payment shall be made within forty-five (45) days after the receipt by the Company of an invoice for Services performed during the preceding Company fiscal quarter (and associated Materials Costs and Expenses incurred during that fiscal quarter). Accompanying the invoice shall be a detailed accounting of the basis for calculating the amount payable, including without limitation the name, title and position level of the personnel who performed the Services, the number of hours worked by each person each day and a description of the work performed, an itemized list of materials used with the cost for each item, and an itemized list and description of expenses incurred with the cost for each item and photocopies of receipts.
2.3 Taxes. All payments due to SFDC hereunder are exclusive of any sales, use, consumption, excise, or similar taxes imposed in connection with the transactions covered by this Agreement. Any such taxes shall be paid by the Company; provided, however, that SFDC and the Company agree to cooperate with each other in good faith in order to minimize the amount of any such taxes. If required by applicable law, the Company may deduct and withhold income tax from any payment to SFDC. In the case of such withholding, the Company shall, without delay, pay the withheld tax to the appropriate tax authority and furnish SFDC with appropriate evidence of the tax payment.
2.4 Audit. SFDC shall each keep complete, clear and accurate records and accounts with respect to its activities hereunder. The Company and its duly authorized representatives, including, without limitation, its accountants, shall have the right upon reasonable notice to inspect and audit at any reasonable time during business hours, at its own expense, the records and all other documents relating to the calculation of the amounts due hereunder. Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, any such inspection and audit may take place until all outstanding claims have been settled to the satisfaction of both parties.
| 3. | Warranty |
SFDC hereby represents and warrants to the Company that:
(a) The Services will be performed in a professional and workmanlike manner consistent with generally accepted industry practices; and
2
(b) Performance of its obligations under this Agreement will not violate any other agreement to which SFDC is a party or violate any provision of any law or regulation to which SFDC is subject or violate or infringe upon any third party’s proprietary or other rights.
The Company shall promptly notify SFDC of any claim it receives from a third party in the Territory claiming that the Services or the work product thereof violates or infringes such third party’s proprietary or other rights.
| 4. | Term and Termination |
4.1 Term. This Agreement shall commence upon the Effective Date and shall remain in full force and effect in perpetuity unless and until terminated earlier pursuant to this Section 4.

8.1 Disputes. The Parties agree that any dispute, controversy, question or claim concerning, arising out of, or relating to the performance, interpretation or construction of this Agreement (“Dispute”) shall be resolved pursuant to this Section 8.1. Without in any way limiting the right of a Party to seek injunctive relief pursuant to Section 8.5 hereof, if at any time a Dispute arises, at the request of either Party, the Parties shall meet, within twenty (20) calendar days of written notice that there is a Dispute, in San Francisco, California, or confer by telephone in an effort to discuss in good faith and to reach an amicable resolution to such Dispute. The Parties shall use all reasonable efforts to resolve any Dispute through direct discussions. If the Parties are unable to settle on a resolution agreeable to both Parties within sixty (60) calendar days following the written notice of Dispute, the Parties shall undertake to resolve the Dispute pursuant to Section 8.2 below.
8.2 Arbitration. If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute pursuant to Section 8.1 above, the Dispute shall be settled, at the request of either Party, by arbitration conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (or then existing rules for commercial arbitration) of the American Arbitration Association in San Francisco, California, in the event that the request is made by the Company, or in Tokyo, Japan, in the event that the request is made by SFDC. The arbitration of such issues, including the determination of any amount of damages to be awarded, shall be final and binding upon the parties, except that the arbitrator shall not be authorized to award punitive damages with respect to any such Dispute. Neither party shall seek punitive damages relating to any matter under or arising out of this Agreement in any other forum. Any arbitrator may be of any nationality. The language of the arbitration shall be English.
8.3 Confidentiality of Proceedings. The dispute resolution proceedings contemplated by this Section 8 shall be as confidential and private as permitted by law. To that end, the Parties shall not disclose the existence, content or results of any proceedings conducted in accordance with this provision, and materials prepared or submitted in connection with such proceedings
8
shall not be admissible in any other proceeding, provided, however, that this confidentiality provision shall not prevent a petition to vacate or enforce an arbitral award, and shall not bar disclosures required by law.
8.4 Arbitral Tribunal. All arbitral awards shall be rendered in writing and shall state the reasons for the award. Any arbitral tribunal established hereunder shall make such decisions entirely on the basis of the substantive law specified in Section 7.14 hereof and shall not make an award on the basis of the principle of ex aequo et xxxx (in justice and fairness) or otherwise. The arbitral tribunal shall not be empowered to award any form of punitive damages or any other remedy not measured by the prevailing party’s actual damages or to act as amiable compositeur. The arbitral tribunal may award reasonable attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party.
8.5 Injunctive Relief. The Parties agree that, in addition to any and all other remedies that may be available under this Agreement and its Exhibits, each Party shall be entitled to seek and obtain injunctive relief as may be granted by a court of competent jurisdiction.
