taste, or that are themselves unlawful or whose purpose is to
encourage unlawful activities by others. Netscape agrees not to
obtain or attempt to obtain by any manner whatsoever any right,
title or interest in or to any of the Marks or any confusingly
similar ▇▇▇▇. Any use of the Marks beyond the scope of this
Section 2.8 shall constitute infringement and material breach.
Netscape expressly agrees that any breach or threatened breach
of this Section 2.8 may cause ISOCOR irreparable injury for
which there may be no adequate remedy at law, and that in
addition to any other remedies available, ISOCOR shall therefore
be entitled to seek injunctive relief without the necessity of
proving actual damages.

Netscape no longer controls such Affiliate, then any
6
7
sublicenses granted to such Affiliate with respect to the Source
Code as provided under this Agreement shall terminate.

9. CONFIDENTIALITY
9.1 CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Each party (the "RECEIVING PARTY")
understands that the other party (the "DISCLOSING PARTY") has
disclosed or may disclose information of a confidential nature
including, without limitation, computer programs, code,
algorithms, names and expertise of employees and consultants,
know-how, formulas, processes, ideas, inventions (whether
patentable or not), schematics and other technical, business,
financial and product development plans, forecasts, strategies
and information ("PROPRIETARY INFORMATION"). All Proprietary
Information disclosed in tangible form by the Disclosing Party
shall be marked "confidential" or "proprietary" and all
Proprietary Information disclosed orally or otherwise in
intangible form by the Disclosing Party shall be designated as
confidential or proprietary at the time of disclosure. The
Source Code to the Licensed Programs and the Source Code to the
Documentation shall be deemed Proprietary Information without
the need to ▇▇▇▇ them as such.
9.2 DISCLOSURE AND USE. The Receiving Party agrees (i) to hold the
Disclosing Party's Proprietary Information in confidence and to
take all necessary precautions to protect such Proprietary
Information (including, without limitation, all precautions the
Receiving Party employs with respect to its own confidential
materials), (ii) not to divulge any such Proprietary Information
or any information derived therefrom to any third person, except
independent contractors under an obligation of confidentiality
and with a need to know for purposes authorized under this
Agreement, (iii) not to make any use whatsoever at any time of
such Proprietary Information except as authorized under this
Agreement, and (iv) not to remove or export any such Proprietary
Information from the country of the Receiving Party except as
may be allowed by applicable export laws. The Receiving Party
shall limit the use of and access to the Disclosing Party's
Proprietary Information to the Receiving Party's employees,
attorneys and independent contractors under an obligation of
confidentiality and restricted use who need to know such
Proprietary Information for the purposes authorized under this
Agreement. The Receiving Party shall treat the Proprietary
Information with at least the same degree of care and protection
as it would use with respect to its own proprietary information.
The foregoing obligations shall survive for a period of five (5)
years from the date of disclosure of the Proprietary
Information. Without granting any right or license, the
Disclosing Party agrees that the foregoing shall not apply with
respect to information that the Receiving Party can establish
(i) is in the public domain and is available at the time of
disclosure or which thereafter enters the public domain and is
available, through no improper action or inaction by the
Receiving Party or any affiliate, agent or employee, or (ii) was
in its possession or known by it prior to receipt from the
Disclosing Party, or (iii) was rightfully disclosed to it by
another person without restriction, or (iv) is independently
developed by the Receiving Party without access to such
Proprietary Information, or (v) is required to be disclosed
pursuant to any statutory or regulatory authority, provided the
Disclosing Party is given prompt notice of such requirement and
the scope of such disclosure is limited to the extent possible,
or (vi) is required to be disclosed by a court order, provided
the Disclosing Party is given prompt notice of such order and
provided the opportunity to contest it.
9.3 INDEPENDENT DEVELOPMENT. The terms of this Agreement shall not
be construed to limit either party's right to independently
develop or acquire products without use of the other party's
Proprietary Information or to license or market any products.
Further, Proprietary Information as defined in Section 9.1 above
shall not include the Residuals resulting from access to such
Proprietary Information. The term "RESIDUALS" means information
in intangible form which may be retained in the unaided memories
of Receiving Party's
11
12
employees or independent contractors who have had access to the
information. An employee's or contractor's memory will be
considered to be unaided if the employee has not intentionally
memorized the Proprietary Information for the purpose of
retaining and subsequently using or disclosing it. Neither party
shall have any obligation to limit or restrict the assignment of
such persons or to pay royalties for any work resulting from the
use of Residuals. However, the foregoing shall not be deemed to
grant to either party a license under the other party's
copyrights or patents.
9.4 RETURN OF PROPRIETARY INFORMATION. Upon any termination or
expiration of this Agreement each party will destroy, or return
to the other party, all tangible copies of the other party's
Proprietary Information.
9.5 CONFIDENTIALITY OF AGREEMENT. Each party agrees that the terms
of this Agreement shall be deemed Proprietary Information of the
other party, provided that in addition to the permitted
disclosures under section 9.2, either party may disclose the
terms of this Agreement (i) if required to do so by law or
generally accepted accounting principles, (ii) as required to
assert its rights hereunder, and (iii) to its own directors,
employees, attorneys, accountants, and other advisors on a "need
to know" basis and under an obligation of confidentiality no
less stringent than set forth herein. Each party agrees that the
Disclosing Party will be given prompt notice of any disclosure
made pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, and that any such
disclosure shall be limited to the extent possible. In addition,
Netscape may disclose the terms of this Agreement or matters
relating thereto to its Affiliates.
10. SOURCE CODE ESCROW. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 2 to
the contrary, ISOCOR grants Netscape a license to deposit the Source
Code to the Licensed Programs in escrow account(s) for the benefit of
Netscape's licensees of the Object Code, provided Netscape source code
is deposited in such escrow and provided the Source Code is subject to
the same release conditions and restrictions on use as the Netscape
source code and provided that the Source Code shall only be used for
support and maintenance of Netscape's customers.
11. GENERAL
11.1 GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be subject to and governed
in all respects by the statutes and laws of the State of
California without regard to the conflicts of laws principles

11.5 FORCE MAJEURE. Neither party will be responsible for any failure
to perform its obligations under this Agreement due to causes
beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts
of God, war, riot, embargoes, acts of civil or military
authorities, fire, floods or accidents.
11.6 WAIVER. The waiver, express or implied, by either party of any
breach of this Agreement by the other party will not waive any
subsequent breach by such party of the same or a different kind.
11.7 HEADINGS. The headings to the Sections and Subsections of this
Agreement are included merely for convenience of reference and
shall not affect the meaning of the language included therein.
11.8 INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS. The parties acknowledge and agree that
they are dealing with each other hereunder as independent
contractors. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be
interpreted as constituting either party the joint venturer,
employee or partner of the other party or as conferring upon
either party the power of authority to bind the other party in
any transaction with third parties.
11.9 SEVERABILITY. In the event any provision of this Agreement is
held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to
be unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the
extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the other
provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and
effect.
11.10 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all
of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
For purposes hereof, a facsimile copy of this Agreement,
including the signature pages hereto shall be deemed to be an
original. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties shall
deliver original execution copies of this Agreement to one
another as soon as practicable following execution thereof.
11.11 DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Any dispute hereunder will be negotiated
between the parties commencing upon written notice from one
party to the other. Settlement discussions and materials will be
confidential and inadmissible in any subsequent proceeding
without both parties' consent. If the dispute is not resolved by
negotiation within 45 days following such notice, the parties
will refer the dispute to non-binding mediation conducted by
JAMS/EndDispute in Santa ▇▇▇▇▇ County, California (the "Venue").
The parties will share the costs of mediation. If the dispute is
not resolved after 45 days of
13
14
mediation, the parties will refer the dispute to binding
arbitration by JAMS/EndDispute in the Venue. The results of any
arbitration will be final and non-appealable, except that either
party may petition any court of competent jurisdiction to review
any decision relating to intellectual property matters
(including the scope of license rights), vacating or modifying
erroneous conclusions of law or findings of fact not supported
by substantial evidence. The arbitrator may fashion any legal or
equitable remedy except punitive or exemplary damages, which
both parties waive. The arbitrator will render a written
decision, which may be entered in and enforced by any court of
competent jurisdiction in the Venue, but which will have no
preclusive effect in other matters involving third parties. The
losing party will pay the costs of the arbitration and the
reasonable legal fees and expenses of the prevailing party, as
determined by the arbitrator. The parties will jointly pay
arbitration costs pending a final allocation by the arbitrator.
At any point in the dispute resolution process, either party may
seek injunctive relief preserving the status quo pending the
outcome of that process. Except as noted, the parties waive any
right to judicial process. California law, without regard to its
conflict-of-law provisions, will govern this Agreement. The U.S.
Arbitration Act and JAMS/EndDispute rules will govern the
arbitration process. Absent fraudulent concealment, neither
party may raise a claim more than 3 years after it arises or any
shorter period provided by applicable statutes of limitations.

console may be able to control what an individual operator is
allowed to see and do depending on the particular directory's
access control functionality.
o MULTIPLE NAMESPACE OWNERS
o The join engine will allow multiple connected directories and
databases to create and own entries in the meta directory. NOTE:
each entry can only have one "owner" for it's naming attribute
and only the owner can delete the entry, the other attributes
can be owned by any of the connected directories.
o [***] ONLY
o The join engine, and management console will be developed for

o An administrator will be able to configure whether the product
can create, modify or delete any given attribute of any given
entry in the MetaView or any connected directory.
o SINGLE ADMINISTRATION
o The meta directory solution will offer the capability of
invoking a process or script to create an account in a foreign
directory based on a given action in the meta directory.
Connector Features
o LDAP SUPPORT
o Both the Join Engine and some connectors can use LDAP as the
exclusive means of access to the Connector View, including data
being synchronized in both directions, as well as change log
information. The Join Engine also provides plug-in interfaces
for supporting other data access and change notification
protocols. These interfaces are used by some connectors,
including the universal database connector, to provide data
access to applications that do not provide LDAP support.
o CONFIGURATION STORED IN DIRECTORY VIA LDAP
o Connectors will store all configuration information, whenever
feasible, in a directory accessed exclusively via LDAP. Use of
the NT Registry and other, ad hoc mechanisms for storing and
updating Connector configuration information will be avoided
except where these are sound engineering reasons for using them.
o CHANGE LOG
o Connectors will be able to use a Netscape Directory Server
change log to become aware of changes to LDAP stored
configuration information and the connector view.

Documentation and Test Cases
To be Delivered to Netscape
1. Specifications for configuration schema
2. Design documentation associated with the delivered source code
3. Build instructions and a description of the build environment (OS release,
compiler release, etc...)
4. Release notes for the ISOCOR v1.1 binary release, including information about

5. User and administrator manuals for the Second Preliminary Copy binary
release. These will be provided initially in FrameMaker format, complete with
cross references. In addition, 10 printed copies will be provided.
6. Complete help text associated with the Management Console in machine readable
form.
7. A summary of the available test cases and test results which are sufficiently
detailed that Netscape engineers can verify the results. These test cases will
include a representative set of feature tests, as well as some stress, capacity,
and boundary tests. These tests should all be run using Netscape Directory
Server (R3.1 or later) for all LDAP directory storage.
28
29
EXHIBIT F
MINIMUM TEST CRITERIA FOR ACCEPTANCE TEST
1. Using the Binaries, the Release Notes, and other ISOCOR Documentation,
Netscape engineers are able to successfully install and run the binary
release (in the target environments specified by ISOCOR).
2. The User Documentation for the binary release will generally match the
functionality of the binaries. For example, the Connector documentation
matches the LDAP version of the Connectors.
3. Netscape engineers are able to build working binaries from the unmodified
Source Code and Build Scripts (for ISOCOR's target environments).
4. The Design Docs are generally consistent with the Source Code delivered.
5. The exhibited Functionality of the ISOCOR product does not omit significant
features in the "Technical Specifications" included as a part of the Source
License Agreement.
6. All major functionality of the ISOCOR product (including Join Engine, and
Connectors works correctly using the binaries built from unmodified source
by Netscape. For example, incremental updates, multi-threading in both the
Join Engine and Connectors, automatic joins for a variety of Connector View
schema's, and manual joins for a variety of Connector View schema's all
work. This is equivalent to saying that there are no P1 or P2 bugs known to
ISOCOR or detected by Netscape during its assessment of functionality which
are not corrected during the acceptance test..
7. Test programs are buildable and runable by Netscape engineers.
8. Available reported test results which are verifiable by Netscape engineers
on binaries built from unmodified source at Netscape, with minor exceptions.
