2. If Licensee modifies these forms or submits a different form, OSI
will not be bound to any additional or different terms unless it
expressly consents to them. Orders and Work Orders may be accepted, in
whole or in part, either by notice of acceptance or by beginning
performance. If Licensee is in breach of this Agreement, OSI may delay
or cancel outstanding Orders or Work Orders even if they have been
accepted. If the agreed terms of an Order or Work Order directly
conflict with the terms of this Agreement, the Order or Work Order
will govern.
(b) CHANGES AND CANCELLATIONS.
(1) Orders may be changed or cancelled on notice to OSI not less than
30 days before scheduled shipment. Licensee will pay any
out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by OSI in connection
with the change or cancellation.
(2) Work Orders may be cancelled by giving OSI 45 days' prior notice.
Licensee will pay for all Professional Services that OSI has
performed through the date of cancellation at OSI's then-current
time and materials rates (not to exceed the total amount due
under the Work Order) plus all costs reasonably incurred by OSI
in connection with the cancellation.
(3) If Licensee would like to change a Work Order, it will notify OSI
of its requested changes. OSI will promptly advise Licensee of
any increased costs, delays or other consequences of the change.
Changes to a Work Order will be implemented only if the parties
agree in writing to modify the Work Order and Statement of Work.
(c) DELIVERY. OSI will pack and ship OSI Software and Deliverables
according to its standard practice, F.O.B. factory. Freight and
insurance charges will be prepaid and invoiced to Licensee. Licensee
will not acquire title to OSI Software or Deliverables. Risk of loss
will pass when OSI Software or Deliverables are put on a carrier at
OSI's facility. Each shipment is a separate sale regardless of whether
it fully or partially fulfills an Order. Licensee has 14 days from
shipment to verify receipt of all OSI Software and Deliverables.
(d) PRICES. The following will apply to OSI Software, Deliverables and
Services:
(1) For each Order, Licensee will pay the fees in the Price List plus
any additional charges incurred under this Agreement. Where
pricing is performance based, usage will be measured on a monthly
basis with software provided by OSI. To the extent applicable,
usage information will be electronically transmitted to OSI on or
before the 15th of each month following the month being measured.
Licensee will acquire additional usage increments before it
exceeds its licensed performance limits. Prices for additional
increments will be based on OSI's Price List in effect on the
date the increment is ordered.
(2) Professional Services will be billed according to the applicable
Work Order or, if not otherwise specified, then according to
OSI's then-current time and materials rates, minimums and other
terms. If a Work Order is priced on time and materials with a
maximum, OSI will endeavor in good faith to complete the Work
Order within the maximum. If OSI believes it cannot complete the
Work Order within the maximum, it will notify Licensee.
Thereafter, Licensee may elect either to continue the work or to
accept it in its then-current form and terminate the Work Order.
(3) Support will be billed in advance at the rates in effect for each
Support period.
(e) TAXES. Prices exclude, and Licensee will pay, all sales, value-added,
use or other governmental taxes, fees
2
and charges of any kind except for taxes based on OSI's net income
("Taxes"). Withholding taxes imposed by the Korean Government, if any,
on the payments made by Licensee hereunder shall be regarded as the
taxes based on OSI's net income. Taxes paid or payable by OSI will be
invoiced to and paid by Licensee. If Licensee is required to make a
Tax or other withholding in connection with a payment, the amount due
will be that which, having been grossed-up and the tax withheld, will
yield OSI the same amount as it would have received if no withholding
had been made. To the extent that any withholding tax is due on the
payments to be made under this Agreement, Licensee undertakes the
responsibility for withholding and making timely payments of such tax
on OSI's behalf and promptly providing OSI with an original or
authenticated copy of the appropriate tax receipts thereof. To the
extent that a convention for the avoidance of double taxation with
respect to taxes on income permits the reduction of withholding tax,
Licensee agrees to support OSI in filing the necessary certificate of
exemption from tax on royalties.
(f) PAYMENT. Payment will be made in U.S. Dollars and in immediately
available funds. Amounts not paid when due will accrue interest at the
rate of 1.0% per month. Licensee will reimburse OSI for all fees,
costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred to
collect overdue amounts. From time to time, OSI may require assurances
of payment, which may include guaranties or letters of credit. Amounts
billed by OSI become final unless disputed within 30 days after the
date of invoice.
(g) DUE DATES. OSI will invoice Licensee for OSI Software on shipment and
payment is due 30 days after the invoice date. Fees applicable to a
New Use are due within 30 days after the New Use begins. Payment for
Deliverables is due on the later of 30 days after the invoice date or
the Installation Date. Fees for Support are payable in advance by no
later than the first day of the applicable Support period.
(h) AUDITS. On reasonable notice, OSI or its agents may inspect Licensee's
facilities (including computers) and records to verify Licensee's
proper use of and payment for all OSI Software and Deliverables.
Licensee will keep records regarding its use in sufficient detail to
permit this verification. Licensee will also provide OSI with dial-in
and on-site access to its network and on-site access to its records,
all as reasonably necessary to conduct a proper audit. If, after an
audit, it is determined that Licensee has underpaid any amounts due,
OSI will invoice Licensee for and Licensee will pay the amount of the
underpayment plus interest as provided in Section 2(f) from the date
each payment was due. If the underpayment is more than 5% of the
amount properly due, Licensee will also pay OSI's audit expenses.
(i) FUNDS AVAILABILITY. If the amount or manner of payments otherwise due
under this Agreement is legally restricted in any way, only the
maximum payable under the restriction will be due. However, OSI may
thereafter elect either to (1) immediately terminate this Agreement
and any outstanding Orders or Work Orders, or (2) accept payment in
whatever manner may be lawfully available. Licensee will use
reasonable commercial efforts to obtain approval for the payments
specified in this Agreement.
3. LICENSES
(a) GENERAL. This Section contains the rights granted to Licensee in OSI
Software and Deliverables. Except for rulesets, which are provided in
OSI's 4GL programming language, Licensee will receive only an object
code license for OSI Software and Deliverables.
(b) LICENSE GRANTS. Licensee is granted a personal, non-transferable,
non-exclusive license, solely for its own internal use and without

the Documentation for that purpose, (3) extend or enhance OSI Software
or Deliverables, and (4) use OSI Software as a part of Combined
Software. Licensee will not, nor will it permit others to, use OSI
Software or Deliverables to develop code, objects, modules or programs
that modify or substitute for code, objects, modules or programs in
OSI Software. Use of OSI Software and Deliverables is limited those
uses for which Licensee has paid the applicable fees. OSI Software or
Deliverables may contain authorization codes and lockout software that
restricts their operation to properly licensed uses.

to decode, de-encrypt or engineer around any security measures in OSI
Software or Deliverables.
(e) TRANSFERS. Licensee may transfer OSI Software and Deliverables to
another computer that is owned by or leased to Licensee. However, it
will need to obtain the requisite authorization codes from OSI before
making the transfer. Licensee will not otherwise rent, license, sell
or transfer any portion of the OSI Software or Deliverables. Any
purported transfer will be void, will be a breach of this Agreement
and will cause the licenses granted in this Agreement to automatically
terminate without notice to Licensee.
4. OWNERSHIP AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS
(a) OWNERSHIP. All right, title and interest to copyrights, trade secrets,
patents and other intellectual property rights (1) in OSI Software and

and cancellation policies. Licensee will reimburse OSI for all
reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in
connection with any on-site training.
6. WARRANTIES
(a) WARRANTIES. OSI warrants that for 90 days after a physical copy of OSI
Software or Deliverables is first delivered to Licensee, OSI Software
will operate substantially as described in its Documentation and
Deliverables will operate substantially as described in their
Statement of Work or, if none, then in the Documentation that
accompanies them.
(b) LIMITATIONS. THE WARRANTY IN SECTION 6(A) IS EXCLUSIVE. EXCEPT FOR
THAT WARRANTY, OSI SOFTWARE, DELIVERABLES AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED

WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND
MERCHANTABILITY. OSI will have no warranty obligation with
respect to (1) any portion of OSI Software or Deliverables that
has been modified, altered or combined with other software by a
party other than OSI, or (2) defects or malfunctions resulting
from causes other than ordinary and proper use, or from hardware
or software other than that provided by OSI and in the form
provided by OSI.
(c) EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. Licensee's sole remedy for a breach of this
limited warranty will be for OSI to use commercially reasonable
efforts to restore the OSI Software or Deliverables to substantially
conforming condition as described in Exhibit 3. If it cannot do so,

Pre-Release OSI Software (such as "alpha" or "beta" versions of new or
existing OSI Software) for evaluation and familiarization. Pre-Release
OSI Software is provided "as is" and without warranty of any kind. It
may contain bugs or inoperable features that will not be corrected.
OSI may change Pre-Release OSI Software significantly before
commercial release, or even not produce a commercial product based on
Pre-Release OSI Software.

hold it harmless against any judgments, directly or indirectly
resulting from a claimed infringement or violation of copyright,
patent or other intellectual property rights with respect to OSI
Software. However, OSI will not be liable for any claims or
judgments based on (a) the actions of Licensee, its employees or
agents, (b) use of a version, modification or adaptation of OSI
Software, if the infringement would have been avoided by the use
of a then-current unaltered release of OSI Software, (c) use of
Combined Software, if OSI Software operated independently of the
Combined Software is not the cause of the infringement, or (d)
use of OSI Software in combination with any hardware, software or
data not delivered in that combination by OSI.
(2) On receiving notice of a claimed infringement, OSI may (a) settle
on terms that permit continued use of the OSI Software, (b)

relating to this Agreement will be finally resolved by binding
arbitration under the Rules of Arbitration of the United Nations
Commission on International Trade Law in effect at the time of the
arbitration ("UNCITRAL Rules"). There will be one arbitrator selected
by mutual agreement of the parties within 45 days after the initiation
of arbitration. If the parties do not agree on the arbitrator within
that period, the President of the State Bar of California at that time
will make the selection.
(1) The venue of the arbitration will be Sacramento, California. All
proceedings will be conducted in English and, translations into
English of all non-English language documents filed, submitted or
exchanged during the proceedings will be supplied concurrently by
the producing party. On reasonable notice to the other party and
the arbitrator, a party may use expert and rebuttal witnesses.
(2) Each party will pay its own fees and expenses in connection with
the arbitration. Common expenses (such as the fees of the
arbitrator) will be borne by the parties as the arbitrator may
determine.
(3) The award of the arbitrator will be (a) in writing (including
reasons), and (b) final and binding on the parties. Judgment on
the award may be entered and enforced by any court of competent
jurisdiction.

to any court of competent jurisdiction for such interim relief as
it considers appropriate, without the need to post bond or other
security, or if required, then the minimum bond or security
required.
(h) EQUITABLE RELIEF. Breach of a party's obligations regarding
intellectual property rights will cause irreparable injury for which
there is no adequate remedy at law. The aggrieved party will be
entitled to equitable relief in addition to all other remedies that
may be available, without the posting of bond or other
8
security, or if required, then the minimum bond or security required.
(i) FORCE MAJEURE. Neither party will be liable or held in default for a
failure or delay in performing its obligations under this Agreement,

Sections 3 4 and 10(a), due to any causes beyond its control provided
it takes all reasonable steps to avoid and minimize the impact of the
cause.
(j) ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, including its Exhibits, is the
entire agreement between the parties regarding its subject matter and
supersedes all prior communications between them, both oral and
written. Except as set forth in Section 10(k), this Agreement may not
be modified, and no rights will be waived, except by an instrument in
writing signed by a duly authorized representative of both parties.
Section headings are for convenience only and will not be relevant in
interpreting this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the term
"including" means by way of example and not limitation. Absent an
express indication to the contrary, all references to a "day" or
"days" are to calendar days.
(k) MODIFICATIONS TO EXHIBITS. OSI may change Exhibits 3 and 4 on 30 days
prior notice. If a change to Exhibit 3 materially reduces Support,
Licensee may terminate Support for the remainder of any prepaid period
and receive a pro rata refund.
(l) WAIVERS AND REMEDIES. No waiver of a breach will constitute a waiver
of any other breach of the same or any other provision of this
Agreement. Except as otherwise provided, the rights and remedies in
this Agreement are cumulative and in addition to any other rights or
remedies available at law or equity.
(m) EXECUTION. Neither this Agreement nor any modification of it will be
binding on OSI unless signed by one of its Executive Officers. This
Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which will
be deemed an original. A counterpart delivered by facsimile or similar
electronic means will be deemed an original, equivalent in all
respects to a manually executed counterpart.
(n) INTENTIONAL RISK ALLOCATION. The provisions of this Agreement reflect
an informed, voluntary allocation between the parties of the risks
(known and unknown) that may exist in connection with its subject
matter. This allocation was a material part of the bargain between the
parties. The economic and other terms of this Agreement were
negotiated and agreed to by them in reliance on that allocation.
(o) INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS. The parties are independent contractors.
Under no circumstances will the employees of one party be deemed the
employees of the other. This Agreement does not grant authority for
either party to act for the other in an agency or other capacity, or
to make commitments of any kind for the account of or on the behalf of
the other.
(p) SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be
invalid or unenforceable, it will be deemed to be modified to the
minimum extent necessary to be valid and enforceable. If it cannot be
so modified, it will be deleted and the deletion will not affect the
validity or enforceability of any other provision unless, as a result,
the rights of either party are materially diminished or the
obligations and burdens of either party are materially increased so as
to be unjust or inequitable.

SUPPORT
1. DEFINITIONS
(a) DEFECT. An error in OSI Software or a failure of OSI Software to conform
substantially with its then-current Documentation that can be reproduced by
OSI. Defects fall into three categories as follows:
(1) PRIORITY 1 (PRODUCTION SYSTEM FAILURE). Licensee's primary production
system (a) is completely unavailable, (b) has a problem that occurs
with sufficient frequency that the system is effectively rendered
inoperable, or (c) is affected such that critical business processes
are unavailable. In each case, no Workaround can be immediately
identified. For Priority 1 Defects, both OSI and Licensee will commit
full-time resources to resolve the situation.
(2) PRIORITY 2 (SYSTEM IMPAIRMENT). Licensee's business processes are
impacted or impaired, but its primary production system still
functions.
(3) PRIORITY 3 (MINOR FAULT). There is no material operational impact on
Licensee's business processes or a Workaround has been identified.
(b) MAINTENANCE RELEASE. An updated release of OSI Software that incorporates
all Patches since the last Maintenance Release or Product Release. A
Maintenance Release is denoted by a change in the third number of the
Version ID. Release notes are generally included.
(c) PATCH. A specific change to resolve a Defect that is made between
Maintenance Releases or Product Releases. A Patch may include additional or
replacement Documentation.
(d) PRODUCT RELEASE. A release of OSI Software that incorporates new
enhancements, features and fixes since the last Product Release. A Product
Release is denoted by a change in the first or second number in the OSI
Software Version ID. Release notes and full Documentation are included.
(e) REMOTE ACCESS. Access to Licensee's systems reasonably required by OSI to
provide Support. Remote Access may include a dedicated connection, dial-up
modem, internet, telnet or other means by which OSI can gain the needed
access.
(f) VERSION ID. A designation used to denote different versions of OSI
Software. A Version ID consists of two or more numbers, each separated by a
period (i.e. X.X.X), where the first two numbers designate the Product
Release, the third number designates the Maintenance Release within a
Product Release, and any subsequent numbers designate the Patch level.
(g) WORKAROUND. A change to the procedures Licensee follows or the data it
supplies when using OSI Software. A Workaround is designed to enable OSI
Software to operate without a material, adverse effect on it use by
Licensee in its production environment.
2. SUPPORT COVERAGE
(a) OSI SOFTWARE. So long as Licensee is current in paying all Support charges
and is not then in breach of this Agreement, Licensee will receive the
Support as described below for all OSI Software. Support is provided only
for the current and the just prior Product Release of OSI Software, with
all OSI recommended operating system, database and other Patches applied.
For further information regarding non-current Product Releases, see OSI's
Product Lifecycle Guidelines on its Web-based Technical Assistance Center,
URL: ▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇/ ("WebTAC").
(b) DELIVERABLES. Support for Deliverables is available, if at all, only on a
time and materials basis and is not covered by standard Support charges. If
Support is made available, coverage only applies to Deliverables
12
in the form provided by OSI. Occasionally, a Deliverable may be updated for
a new release of network element software. Receipt of updates for
Deliverables requires payment of a separate license fee.
(c) EXCLUDED ITEMS. Support does not include (1) installation of Maintenance
Releases, Patches, Product Releases and Workarounds, (2) their integration
into Licensee's system, or (3) their customization to conform to Licensee's
environment.
3. BASIC SUPPORT
(a) OSI SOFTWARE. If Licensee believes that there is a Defect in OSI Software,
Licensee will (1) promptly notify OSI, describing the parameters,
procedures and conditions resulting from the Defect in sufficient detail to
permit OSI to isolate the code that has caused the Defect, and (2) provide
OSI with all data files, database rules and other software, together with
Remote Access and (if OSI requires) on-site access, reasonably believed
necessary by OSI for it to reproduce and analyze the Defect. If the Defect
cannot be reproduced, no further action will be taken.
(b) RESPONSE TIMES. On notice of a Defect and during its normal business hours
(unless Premium Support is purchased) OSI will initiate work to verify a
Defect, advise Licensee of its plans for resolving the Defect, and use
commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the Defect, as follows:
(1) PRIORITY 1. OSI will initiate work to verify a Priority 1 Defect
within two hours of being notified and will try to resolve it in 5
business days.
(2) PRIORITY 2. OSI will initiate work to verify a Priority 2 Defect no
later than the next business day and will try to resolve it in 10
business days.
(3) PRIORITY 3. OSI will initiate work to verify a Priority 3 Defect and
provide a reasonable Workaround in 30 business days. OSI will also try
to include a correction for the Defect in the next Maintenance Release
or Product Release.
If a Defect cannot be resolved within the times described above, OSI
will notify Licensee and the parties will cooperate in good faith to
arrive at a mutually satisfactory alternative.
(c) NOTICE. OSI will work diligently to resolve Priority 1 and Priority 2
Defects with a Workaround or Patch. Whenever practical, OSI will
verbally advise Licensee of a Workaround, followed by a confirmation
posted on WebTAC, or otherwise provided to Licensee. If a Workaround
does not resolve the Defect, OSI will use commercially reasonable
efforts to provide a Patch.
4. OSI SOFTWARE UPDATES
Support fees include, for all Authorized Computers, the right to receive a
license to Maintenance Releases and Product Releases at the time each
Release is made generally available. Revisions and enhancements to OSI
Software will be made as OSI deems necessary and appropriate. OSI may
discontinue updating OSI Software at any time or may incorporate any
portion of existing OSI Software into a new and distinct product. In this
latter case, OSI will offer to make the new product available to Licensee
at its then current price.
5. GENERAL ASSISTANCE
OSI will provide Licensee with a reasonable amount of generalized advice
regarding the proper installation, configuration and operation of OSI
Software and Deliverables in the form provided by OSI ("General
Assistance"). Additional General Support is available on a time and
materials basis.
6. TELEPHONE HOTLINE
13
Telephone Support for Basic Support and General Assistance is available as
follows:
(a) THE AMERICAS, 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., PST, Monday - Friday, excluding local
OSI holidays.
(b) EUROPE, 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Paris Time, Monday - Friday, excluding
local OSI holidays.
(c) ASIA-PACIFIC, 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Singapore Time, Monday - Friday,
excluding local OSI holidays.
7. WEBTAC
Subject to system availability, Support includes 24 hour-a-day, 7
day-a-week access to OSI's WebTAC. Use of the WebTAC is subject to the
terms, conditions and procedures that are posted on the WebTAC site.
8. PREMIUM SUPPORT
Twenty-four-hour-a-day, seven-day-a-week Premium Support is available for
OSI Software at an extra charge as shown in the Price List. If Licensee
purchases this option, the following additional Support will be provided
for resolution of Priority 1 Defects:
(a) RESPONSE TIMES. Licensee will receive a support telephone/paging
number to be used after normal business hours. OSI will endeavor to
respond within 15 minutes of receiving a call, message or page and
will promptly thereafter initiate work to verify the Defect.
(b) RESOLUTION. OSI will use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve
the Defect within 2 hours and, if unable to resolve the Defect within
that period, will continue diligently to pursue resolution of the
Defect.
9. GENERAL MATTERS
(a) CONTACTS AND INTERNAL SUPPORT.
(1) Licensee will designate one employee who will be the primary
contact and one employee who will be the backup contact (either
of whom is a "Contact") for all matters related to Support. Each
Contact will have will have reasonable knowledge of the OSI
Software and Deliverables. In addition, they will have reasonable
knowledge of both Unix system administration and database
administration, troubleshooting and operation. Only the Contacts
will have full use of OSI's WebTAC, although "read only" access
and report generation can be provided to other of Licensee's
employees.
(2) All requests for Support will be made through the Contacts. In
addition, Licensee will take and document the following actions
(to the extent appropriate) both before and after reporting a
Defect:
o Maintain an up-to-date record of system changes, such as
upgrades, Patches and modifications to operating systems,
databases, devices, device software and OSI Software.
o Identify the nature of the Defect.
o Describe the events that led up to the problem.
o Reproduce the error and document the steps needed to do so.
o Provide OSI with proper Remote Access and any required
assistance.
Licensee will also commit appropriate resources to clearing
the Defect until its source has been agreed.
(b) COMMENCEMENT. The first year of Support for each item of OSI Software
begins on its Installation Date. Support will automatically renew each
year unless Licensee cancels by notice to OSI at least 30 days before
the end of any Support period. Renewal fees will be paid in advance on
or before the anniversary of the Installation Date. The schedule of
renewal fees will be as specified in OSI's then current Price List.
14
(c) COMPREHENSIVE COVERAGE. Because of the interconnection between
versions of OSI Software, Deliverables and components from its various
Vendors, if Licensee renews Support for one item of OSI Software,
Licensee will renew Support for all OSI Software it has licensed.
Licensee may purchase Support, if available, for all, some or none of
the Deliverables it has licensed from OSI.
(d) CANCELLATION. Support will end if Licensee's license for OSI Software
is terminated. Support will also end for all OSI Software at the
conclusion of any Support period if Licensee has not paid its renewal
fees before the end of the period. If Support ends, it will end,
effective immediately, for all OSI Software. Previously paid fees will
not be refunded. Cancellation of Support will not, of itself,
constitute termination of the Agreement.
(e) REINSTATEMENT. Licensee may reinstate lapsed Support by paying all
Support fees that are in arrears, plus (1) a reinstatement fee equal
to 50% of the then-current annual fee, and (2) any costs, on a time
and material basis, that OSI incurs to update Licensee's installations
to current versions of OSI Software.
(f) MODIFICATIONS AND UNAUTHORIZED USES. OSI will have no obligation to
support OSI Software if it (1) has been modified by anyone other than
OSI, or (2) is being used in violation of the terms of the Agreement.
If a reported problem is not a Defect in OSI Software but is actually
a problem caused by user error, modification of OSI Software by a
party other than OSI, or third party hardware or software, OSI may
invoice Licensee on a time and materials basis for efforts provided by
OSI personnel for the problem.
(g) LIMITATIONS. OSI WILL USE COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE EFFORTS TO REPAIR
DEFECTS, BUT DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL BE ABLE TO DO SO, OR THAT
ANY REPAIR WILL BE SATISFACTORY TO LICENSEE. HOWEVER, OSI AGREES TO
MAKE THE OSI SOFTWARE PERFORM SUCH FUNCTIONS AS SAID OSI SOFTWARE
PERFORMED AT THE TIME OF LICENSEE'S ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH OSI SOFTWARE,
PROVIDED THAT LICENSEE'S NETWORK ENVIRONMENT, INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO HARDWARE, THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE AND NETWORK ELEMENTS AND
DEVICES, WHICH EXISTED AT THE TIME OF THE ACCEPTANCE OF SAID OSI
SOFTWARE CONTINUES TO BE USED.
