that may result, in whole or part, from any claim brought alleging that any
Unique Component owned by StorageTek or its Subsidiaries or any Co-branded
Product in combination with any Unique Component or Trademark owned by
StorageTek or its Subsidiaries if such Co-branded Product without such

be liable under Section 15.2.1 or 15.2.2 for, costs or damages if the
infringement referenced in Section 15.2.1, or the injunction referenced in
Section 15.2.2, is a result of: (a) the combining with, adding to, or
modifying the Unique Component by anyone other than StorageTek or its
Subsidiaries or SSI or its Subsidiaries if the Unique Component without
such combination, addition or modification would not be infringing; (b) use
of the Unique Component, or any part of the Unique Component, in the
practice of a process for which the Unique Component is not intended; or
(c) failure by SSI to use materials or instructions provided by StorageTek
at no cost to SSI and its Subsidiaries (other than the cost of
publication/media), the use of which would have rendered the Unique
Component non-infringing.

warranties made by StorageTek or its Subsidiaries or its or their Distributors
in excess of the product warranties made by SSI or its Subsidiaries. SSI's
duties and obligations under this Section 15.4 shall not be limited by any

15.7 Exclusive Remedies. The specific indemnities provided in this
Section 15 are the sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement for the
subject matter to which they each pertain.

16 CONFIDENTIALITY

16.1 Confidentiality. Each Party will maintain and keep confidential the
Confidential Information of the other Party in accordance with this Section 16.
The Party to whom the Confidential Information belongs shall be referred to as
the "PROVIDER," and the party who receives the Confidential Information shall be
referred to as the "RECIPIENT."

16.2 Use of Confidential Information. The Recipient agrees to use the
Confidential Information solely for performing its duties and obligations under
this Agreement and for no other purpose.

16.3 Disclosure of Confidential Information. The Recipient shall protect
the Confidential Information by using the same degree of care to prevent
unauthorized use, dissemination or publication of the Confidential Information
as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information of like nature; provided
however, that in no event shall Recipient use less than a reasonable degree of
care to protect the Confidential Information. The Recipient shall keep the
Confidential Information confidential and shall not disclose the Confidential
Information to any person or entity other than such employees, contractors,
consultants, advisors, and legal and financial advisors of Recipient who have a
bona fide need to know and who are subject to a written obligation of
confidentiality substantially similar to the obligations contained herein. The
Recipient shall be responsible and liable for any use or disclosure of the
Confidential Information by such parties in violation of this Agreement. Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to prevent disclosure of any of the
Confidential Information if such disclosure is legally required to be made in a
judicial, administrative or governmental proceeding pursuant to a valid subpoena
or other applicable order or to meet securities laws or regulatory requirements;
provided, however, the Recipient shall give Provider at least 10 days prior
written notice (unless less time is permitted by the applicable proceedings)
before disclosing any of the Confidential Information in any such proceeding or
to meet such laws or regulations and, in making such disclosure, the Recipient
shall disclose only that portion thereof required to be disclosed and shall take
all reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality thereof, including
obtaining protective orders and supporting the Provider in intervention.
22

16.4 Residuals. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, either Party
(as the Receiving Party) shall be free to use for any purpose the Residuals
resulting from access to or work with the Confidential Information of the other
party (as the Provider), provided that the Recipient shall not disclose the
Confidential Information except as expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement. Furthermore, neither party shall intentionally memorize the
Confidential Information of the other party so as to reduce it to a non-
tangible form for the purpose of creating a Residual. The Recipient shall not
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, this
subparagraph shall not be deemed to grant to the Recipient a license under the
Provider's copyrights or patents. In the absence of another applicable agreement
to the contrary, the Parties shall have the freedom to use Residual information
in the development, manufacturing, marketing, performance, maintenance, sale and
delivery of any products and services. This Agreement shall not be construed as
precluding either party or its employees, subject to the express terms of this
Agreement, from competing with the other or from independently and without
breach of this Agreement developing, having developed, acquiring or marketing
any other materials, products and services, irrespective of their similarity to
materials, products or services owned or marketed by the other party hereto.

16.5 Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, the
obligation of confidentiality and of use and nondisclosure contained herein
shall continue to bind the Parties; provided however, that Recipient may
continue to use the Confidential Information to the limited extent required to
perform its obligations in connection with a specific Co-branded Product through
the End of Service, at which time the Recipient shall destroy and certify to the
Provider that it has destroyed, all such Confidential Information of the
Provider.

16.6 Legal Remedies. Recipient agrees that if this Agreement is breached,
or if a breach hereof is threatened, the remedy at law may be inadequate; and,
therefore, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 25, without limiting any
other remedy available at law or in equity, an injunction, restraining order,
specific performance and other forms of equitable relief or money damages or any
combination thereof shall be available to the Provider. The successful Party in
any action or proceeding brought to enforce the provisions of this Section 16
shall be entitled to recover the costs, expenses and fees incurred in any such
action or proceeding, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees
and expenses. All duties, obligations, rights, powers and remedies provided for
herein are cumulative, and not exclusive, of any and all duties, obligations,
rights, powers and remedies existing at law or in equity, and the Provider
shall, in addition to the duties, obligations, rights, powers and remedies
herein conferred, be entitled to avail itself of all such other duties,
obligations, rights, powers and remedies as may now or hereafter exist,
including, without limitation, the Uniform Trade Secrets Act and similar
statutes and rules of law pertaining to trade secrets and confidential and
proprietary information as applied by the law governing this Agreement.

16.7 Confidentiality and Meet-Comp Information. If StorageTek provides
SSI with STK Customer Information pursuant to the Meet Comp process, the parties
agree that the STK Customer Information shall be deemed Confidential Information
under this Agreement and shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 16
regarding treatment of Confidential Information as well as to the additional,
more restrictive provisions of this Section 16.7. For clarification purposes
only, Win/Loss Data shall be deemed Confidential Information under this
Agreement but shall not be subject to the provisions of this Section 16.7.
StorageTek shall provide the STK Customer Information to the authorized
representative(s) of SSI who is responsible for the activities of the SSI
Pricing Desk, which representative(s) may be changed by SSI at any time, (the
"Pricing Desk"). In addition to the Pricing Desk such STK Customer Information
may be provided to such other SSI employees who have a need to know such STK
Customer Information in order to perform their employment responsibilities for
SSI. SSI shall only use the STK Customer Information for the specific purpose of
SSI [*] of Co-Branded Products in accordance with the [*] and for no other
purpose. In addition, STK Customer Information may be provided to SSI's
accountants, attorneys and other advisers on a confidential basis in connection
with the services such parties are engaged by SSI to perform.

16.8 No Limitation. The obligations and duties set forth in this Section
16 and the liability of the Parties hereunder shall not be limited by any
provision contained in this Agreement, including without limitation, the
limitations set forth in Section 14.

18 TERM AND TERMINATION

18.1 Term. Unless earlier terminated under this Section 18, the initial
term of the Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and expire on the [*]
of the Effective Date of this Agreement ("INITIAL RENEWAL TERM"), and thereafter

degradation in performance under this Agreement as compared to SSI's
performance prior to the Competitor Change of Control; unless the failure
or degradation is cured, to the reasonable satisfaction of StorageTek,
within the [*] notice period; provided however, that prior to any exercise
of remedies in accordance with the terms of this Section 18.3.2, the
Parties shall enter into expedited mediation for a [*] period before
StorageTek exercises its rights.

18.3.3 Mutual Agreement. By mutual agreement of the Parties.

18.4 Competitor Change of Control.

18.4.1 StorageTek. In the event of a Competitor Change of Control
with respect to StorageTek, SSI shall have the option of either terminating
this Agreement or continuing under this Agreement. SSI may exercise its
termination option by written notice to StorageTek at any time on or prior

Change of Control has occurred.

18.4.2 SSI. In the event of a Competitor Change of Control with
respect to SSI, StorageTek shall have the option of either terminating this
Agreement or continuing under this Agreement. StorageTek may exercise its
termination option by written notice to SSI at any time prior to the [*]
after SSI notifies StorageTek in writing that such Competitor Change of
Control has occurred and the date on which the termination shall occur,
which date shall not exceed [*] from the termination notice date. If
StorageTek determines during such [*] period not to exercise its
termination right, it may, by written notice to SSI within such period

of this Agreement. Following termination of this Agreement, the Parties agree:

18.5.1 Survival of Certain Terms. StorageTek shall be entitled to a
last buy of the Co-branded Products as provided in Section 10.3 as if each
Co-branded Product were a discontinued Co-branded Product (unless
StorageTek is in breach of this Agreement), and the Parties' obligations
shall continue to survive as to: (a) those provisions which survive by

existing upon the effective date of termination. Termination will not
reduce the liability of any Party for a breach of this Agreement that
occurred prior to such termination.

18.5.2 SSI Breach. Upon termination of this Agreement due to any of
the following conditions: (a) commencement of any involuntary proceeding in
bankruptcy or insolvency action against SSI; or (b) discontinuance of

provide StorageTek with alternative arrangements to continue to supply the
Co-branded Products or equivalent products reasonably acceptable to
StorageTek but on terms no less favorable than the terms provided to
StorageTek pursuant to this Agreement; or (ii) if alternative arrangements
are not made within [*] after termination, provide StorageTek with the
manufacturing rights which shall include the right and license, under SSI's
Intellectual Property Rights and otherwise, to manufacture, use, sell,
market and distribute Co-branded Products. Such license shall be non-
exclusive, shall terminate at the [*] from the event that gave rise to the
license (whichever is last to occur), shall apply only to the discretional
Co-branded Product if the termination was caused by the event described in
clause (b) above, and shall bear a royalty payable by StorageTek to SSI in
the amount of [*] that resulted to StorageTek as a result of the event that
gave rise to the license. The foregoing limited right to manufacture is
expressly limited and shall not arise except with respect to the
condition(s) as set forth in this Section 18.5.2. In addition to the
foregoing limited right to manufacture, StorageTek reserves all rights and
remedies as set forth in this Agreement.

18.5.3 Escrow. The parties acknowledge that they will meet no later

20 QUALITY ASSURANCE; COMPATIBILITY

20.1 Quality Assurance. SSI agrees to maintain a quality assurance system
to ensure that processes of design, sourcing, manufacture, test, failure
analysis, repair, packaging and shipping of the Co-branded Products is under
continuous control including in accordance with the performance specifications
contained in the Specifications and the critical end product parameters and
limits, attached to the Agreement as EXHIBIT E (CRITICAL END PRODUCT PARAMETERS)
(the "PARAMETERS"), which Schedule SSI will use reasonable efforts to provide
within [*] of the Effective Date. SSI will take appropriate corrective action
with regard to any deficiencies identified by either SSI or StorageTek as
specified in the response and escalation matrixes set forth on SCHEDULE 2 OF
EXHIBIT B (CO-BRANDED PRODUCT SERVICE AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT). SSI agrees to
participate in StorageTek's sourcing supplier scorecard process (the
"SCORECARD"). StorageTek will communicate to SSI Quality department on a [*]
basis the resulting field data for MTBR and FIR performance and on a [*] basis
the StorageTek Scorecard indicating a numerical basis relating to the Co-branded
Products' quality, delivery and pricing. The Scorecard will identify areas for
improvement by SSI and StorageTek may require SSI to deliver an action plan that
demonstrates a plan for this improvement. If StorageTek requests an action plan,
SSI will provide the action plan within [*] from StorageTek's delivery of the
Scorecard so long as StorageTek has provided SSI with MTBF and FIR Measurement
on a [*] basis. SSI will include in the action plan the minimum actions SSI will
take, who is accountable for the action resolution and a time frame when the
action is to be completed. SSI will provide StorageTek with a status of the
action plan on a [*] basis until SSI completes all identified actions. An
example of the Scorecard is set forth in EXHIBIT G (SCORECARD).

20.2 Plug and Play. StorageTek and SSI agree the "PLUG AND PLAY
MEASUREMENT" for the Products shall be equal to or less than the FIR Measurement
for the identified period established in EXHIBIT A (FIR MEASUREMENT), which may
be amended by the parties periodically. StorageTek will provide written notice
to SSI if the Plug and Play Measurement exceeds the FIR Measurement. In the
event that the Plug and Play Measurement increases beyond the FIR Measurement
for each [*] based on Co-Branded Product shipped to StorageTek and it
Subsidiaries for that [*], then SSI shall immediately develop and initiate a
corrective action plan with notice to and participation by StorageTek (if
StorageTek so elects) [*] to StorageTek in order to resolve any problems and to
reach the FIR Measurement. SSI will respond to and resolve any problems pursuant
to the response and escalation matrixes set forth on SCHEDULE 2 OF EXHIBIT B
(CO-BRANDED PRODUCT SERVICE AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT). SSI shall demonstrate to
StorageTek's satisfaction, via time-to-failure data, the applicable FIR
Measurement has been achieved. StorageTek shall also have the right to cancel
(without incurring any cancellation charges) any orders already submitted but
not yet delivered in the

event the Plug and Play Measurement increases beyond the FIR Measurement. Should
the Plug and Play Measurement continue to remain above the applicable FIR
Measurement for [*], SSI's Vice President and General Manager for SSI Wichita
will meet with StorageTek's Vice President of Quality in Louisville, Colorado to
establish appropriate corrective actions.

20.3 Product Reliability. SSI agrees to ensure that over the applicable
warranty period for the Co-branded Products specified in Section 13 will meet
the quality and reliability standards as defined by the Specifications and the
Parameters ("RELIABILITY"). If over the Specifications' defined life of the
Product, the Product(s) fail to meet the Reliability standards, then SSI shall
use its reasonable commercial efforts to implement a corrective action plan and
will deliver, if applicable, engineering change orders, packaging changes, test
procedures, Software and Hardware changes, process changes that affect Form,
Fit, Function, Reliability, Maintainability, Compatibility or Interoperability,
[*] to StorageTek in order to achieve the Reliability standards. SSI will
implement a corrective action plan pursuant to the response and escalation
matrix set forth on SCHEDULE 2 OF EXHIBIT B (CO-BRANDED PRODUCT SERVICE AND
SUPPORT AGREEMENT). Should the Products fail to meet the Reliability standards
for [*], SSI's Vice President and General Manager of SSI Wichita will meet with
StorageTek's Vice President of Quality in Louisville, Colorado to establish
appropriate corrective actions.

20.4 Annual Return Rate. SSI will track a [*] Annual Return Rate ("ARR")
for all disk drives, controllers, and environmental services modules (each an
"ARR COMPONENT") and will monitor the ARR monthly. SSI sets the goal for the ARR
(the "ARR GOALS") based on the MTBF as stated in the engineering specification
for the ARR Component as set forth on SCHEDULE 20.4 (ARR). SSI will calculate
the ARR Goal by taking [*]. If the actual ARR exceeds the ARR Goal for a period
of [*], SSI will immediately develop and initiate a corrective action plan with
notice to and participation by StorageTek (if StorageTek so elects) at no charge
to StorageTek in order to resolve any problems to bring performance below the
ARR Goals. The corrective action may include, but is not limited to, requesting
failure analysis of all failed/returned ARR Components. SSI will then pareto the
failure analysis results and each failure mechanism will be subject to
corrective action(s) either internally at SSI or at the sub-tier vendor,
depending on the corrective action needed. SSI will monitor the effectiveness of
the corrective actions by the Defective Parts Per Million's measured through
SSI's manufacturing process and the return rate from field failures as described
on SCHEDULE 20.4, (ARR). [*]. Should the actual ARR continue to remain above
the applicable ARR Goal for [*], SSI's Vice President and General Manager for
SSI Wichita will meet with StorageTek's Vice President of Quality in Louisville,
Colorado to establish appropriate corrective actions.

20.5 Failure Analysis. Within [*], SSI shall perform a formal failure
analysis to root cause for all field related failures or where a Product falls
outside of defined Reliability standards of the Specifications. SSI shall
provide StorageTek the results of the analysis, SSI's corrective action, data
regarding the effectiveness of the corrective action and disposition of Spare
Parts affected by the corrective action. In addition, design failure mode effect
analysis or process failure effect mode analysis, if deemed appropriate by SSI,
will be conducted as part of the corrective action process. If in any [*] SSI
fails to meet the minimum failure analysis "track to closure" performance
minimum in the Scorecard, SSI's Vice President and General Manager for will meet
with StorageTek's Vice President of Quality in Louisville, Colorado to establish
appropriate corrective actions.

20.6 Epidemic Failure. In the event that StorageTek has determined that
the Co-branded Product contains one or more potential Epidemic Failure Defects,
StorageTek shall promptly give SSI written notice of all relevant details with
respect to such potential Epidemic Failure Defect(s). StorageTek may, at its
sole discretion, issue a stop shipment order pursuant to Section 20.7 to SSI for
the affected Product until the Epidemic Failure is corrected. In addition, SSI
shall, at StorageTek's option, either: (a) exchange the Product containing the
Epidemic Failure Defect for a new Product; (b) repair all Epidemic Failure
Defects at SSI's cost; or (c) accept return of the Product with Epidemic Failure
Defects and grant StorageTek credit or replacement, at StorageTek's option, for
the Product. "EPIDEMIC FAILURE DEFECT" means defects in design, procured
material or manufacturing resulting in the occurrence of multiple failures of
the same component(s) in Systems delivered to StorageTek or it's designee, for
the same single root cause after completion of root cause failure analysis by
SSI. "EPIDEMIC FAILURE" occurs when a product is not meeting Reliability
standards, and when a specific Epidemic Failure Defect represents [*] or more of
the annualized return rate for a
28

specific Product shipped to StorageTek and its Subsidiaries in a [*] period
using a Pareto analysis. For the purpose of calculating the Epidemic Failure
percentage, the defect to be measured shall be only the defined and specific
defect from the same components, parts or assemblies that are part of the
System. The existence of an Epidemic Failure shall be established in good faith
between StorageTek and SSI, as supported by service records for a Product and by
using the annualized return rate for the specified period that the monitored
Product is not in conformance with the applicable Specification.

20.7 Stop Shipment Process. SSI shall maintain a documented product stop
shipment process that is invoked in response to, and to establish containment
of, any Co-branded Product issues or defects that are identified to SSI by
StorageTek that actually or may potentially adversely affect data integrity,
safety or create other significant operation impacts to StorageTek or
StorageTek's End Users. At a minimum, the process will provide for:

(a) Status updates to StorageTek during the course of problem
resolution detailing actions taken and progress made toward resolution by
SSI, to be furnished at intervals agreed upon between StorageTek and SSI on
a case-by-case basis;

(b) Positive stop shipment of the Co-branded Product pending problem
resolution;

(c) Prompt notification to StorageTek at any time that SSI initiate's
a Stop Order or a Stop Ship that impacts shipment to StorageTek or its End
Users of a Co-branded Product;

(d) Prompt notification to StorageTek identifying any specific serial
number(s) of Co-branded Product or range of Co-branded Product that has
been previously delivered to StorageTek or StorageTek's End Users that may
be affected by the issue causing the Stop Ship or Stop Order; and

Immediate allocation of Co-branded Product pursuant to Section 6.6 and
appropriate SSI resources to resolve the problem on an urgent priority basis as
defined in the response and escalation matrix set forth on SCHEDULE 2 OF EXHIBIT
B (CO-BRANDED PRODUCT SERVICE AND SUPPORT AGREEMENT). SSI will include in its
communication of Stop Order to StorageTek, the type of problem (field issue;
manufacturing issue or component issue), description of the situation, customers
that are affected, parts that are affected, a failure analysis, what are SSI's
next actions, corrective action, delivery schedule and date and time for next
update on the situation.

20.8 ISO. SSI confirms that all of its processes are ISO 9001:2000 and
ISO 14001 certified and will maintain such certification throughout the term of
this Agreement. SSI also confirms that its process for the supply and service of
the Co-branded Products comply with these ISO quality standards. SSI will
promptly notify StorageTek if SSI fails to maintain these certifications.

21 AUDIT RIGHTS

21.1 Plant Audit. At StorageTek's sole expense, StorageTek may, upon 5
business days prior notice to SSI, conduct a commercially reasonable audit of
SSI's plant to assess effectiveness of SSI's quality and manufacturing
engineering and manufacturing processes, sourcing process, statistical process
control records, quality assurance procedures, packaging and shipping procedures
along with all associated quality records and procedures and functions relating
to Co-branded Products affected by the terms of this Agreement; provided,
however, that in the event that notice would unreasonably disrupt SSI's
business, then the Parties shall mutually agree upon a more reasonable time
period for such audit. Any discrepancies discovered as a result of the audit
will be jointly reviewed, with any remediation actions to be mutually agreed
upon, with time frames and milestones clearly documented and tracked by both
Parties.

21.2 Other Audit Rights. Each Party shall have the right to audit the
other Party's financial records not more than [*] per calendar year using a
nationally recognized accounting firm with 5 business days prior notice for the
purpose of confirming the other Party's compliance with this Agreement;
provided, however, that in the event such 5 business days prior notice would
unreasonably disrupt the audited Party's business, then the Parties shall
mutually agree upon a more reasonable time period.

22 [INTENTIONALLY DELETED]

23 GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS

The provisions of Executive Orders 11246 and 11375, relating to equal
employment opportunity, are hereby incorporated in this Agreement by reference
(the term "SSI" being substituted for "CONTRACTOR" unless the context of the
order otherwise requires), unless work performed by SSI under this Agreement is
exempted pursuant to such executive orders and the regulations thereunder. SSI
agrees to submit all reports, certifications, and other documents required by
such executive orders. In the event that any government contract to which
StorageTek becomes a party requires inclusion of certain provisions in
subcontracts awarded under such contract and in the further event that
StorageTek desires to place on SSI, under this Agreement, a purchase order
having such required subcontract provisions, SSI shall, if it has been advised
in writing of such provisions and accepts the purchase order, be bound by any of
such provisions as are additional to, different from or deletions from, certain
of the terms of this Agreement. Any purchase order placed by StorageTek on SSI
as a subcontract under such government contract shall conspicuously identify the
new provisions required under the government contracts. To the extent
applicable, each Party shall comply with Federal Acquisition Regulations.

25 DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND GOVERNING LAW

25.1 Disputes. Except for claims related to intellectual property rights
or breach of confidentiality, prior to the filing of a written demand for
arbitration related to any dispute arising out of this Agreement, the Party
believing itself aggrieved (the "INVOKING PARTY") will call first for
progressive management involvement in the dispute negotiation by notice to the
other Party before the Invoking Party's right to institute any other dispute
resolution provisions of this Agreement.

25.2 Escalation. The Parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to
arrange personal meetings or telephone conferences as needed, at mutually
convenient times and places, between negotiations for the Parties at the
following successive management levels, each of which will have a period of
allotted time as specified below in which to attempt to resolve the dispute.

LEVEL ALLOTTED TIME
----- -------------

[*] [*]
[*] [*]

The allotted time for the first level negotiator will begin on the
effective date of the Invoking Party's notice. If negotiators at the management
level do not achieve resolution at the end of their allotted time, then the
allotted time for the negotiations at the final management level, if any, will
begin immediately.

25.3 Arbitration. If negotiators at the final management level do not
achieve resolution within the allotted time as specified above, either Party may
initiate binding arbitration by providing written demand for arbitration to the
Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services ("JAMS") (with a copy to the other
Party), a copy of this Agreement and the administrative fee required by JAMS.
The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the JAMS Comprehensive
Arbitration Rules. The Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. sec.sec. 1-16, not
state law, shall govern the arbitrability of all claims. The written demand for
arbitration shall be sufficiently detailed to permit the other Party to
understand the claim(s) and identify witnesses and relevant documents. The
Parties shall share the remaining cost of the arbitration, including
arbitrator's fees, equally; provided, however, each Party shall bear the cost of
preparing and presenting its own case (including its own attorneys' fees). If
StorageTek is the first to file for arbitration in any dispute, then the
arbitration shall be held in San Francisco, California; and, if SSI is the first
to file for arbitration in any dispute, then the arbitration shall be held in
Denver, Colorado. The arbitrator has no authority to award any indirect,
incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages, including damages for
lost profits. The arbitrator's decision shall follow the plain meaning of the
Agreement and shall be final, binding, and enforceable in a court of competent
jurisdiction. If either Party fails to comply with the dispute resolution
process set forth herein (including

without limitation, non-payment of an arbitration award) and a Party is required
to resort to court proceedings to enforce such compliance, then the
non-complying Party shall reimburse all of the costs and expenses incurred by
the Party requesting such enforcement (including reasonable attorneys' fees).
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 25 to the contrary, in the case of
injunctive relief or other remedies with respect to intellectual property rights
and indemnifications or breach of confidentiality, either Party may bring suit
in a court of competent jurisdiction. If StorageTek is the plaintiff in any such
suit, then the Parties shall consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United
States District Court for the Northern District of California in San Francisco,
California; and, if SSI is the plaintiff in any such suit, then the Parties
shall consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court
for the District of Colorado in Denver, Colorado.

25.4 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to its
conflict of laws provisions.

26 GENERAL

26.1 Assignment. Except to the acquiror in a Change of Control, neither
Party may assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the
prior written consent of the other Party. Any purported assignment or transfer

and agreements, whether written or oral, concerning the subject matter hereof.

26.8 Non-Waiver of Rights. The failure of either Party to enforce any
provisions of this Agreement or any rights with respect to this Agreement will
in no way affect the validity of this Agreement. Such failure will not preclude

rights it may have under this Agreement.

26.9 Force Majeure. Neither Party will be liable for any failure of, or
delay in the performance of, its obligations under this Agreement for the period
that such failure or delay is due to acts of God, public enemy, civil war,

5. RESPONSIBILITIES WITH RESPECT TO SERVICE AND SUPPORT

5.1 StorageTek Responsibilities. StorageTek will:

5.1.1 offer and provide basic installation of the Co-branded Products
in accordance with its then-current standard installation policies and in
accordance with SSI's published installation procedures; provided, however,
that StorageTek acknowledges that installation other than in accordance
with SSI's installation procedures may void the warranty of any Co-branded

5.1.4 contract with End Users for service and support of Co-branded
Products sold by StorageTek directly or indirectly through its distribution
channel partners. With respect to geographical locations outside of the
United States, StorageTek and its Subsidiaries shall undertake this
responsibility on a direct level with the particular territory; and

5.1.5 engage SSI Level 3 Support through the StorageTek Level 3
Support function, whereby StorageTek personnel designated as StorageTek
Level 3 Support personnel shall contact designated SSI Level 3 Support
personnel for service and support of the Co-branded Products and the SSI
Certified Compatible List, as more fully described in Section 6.3 below.

Level 1 Support and Level 2 Support provided by StorageTek or its
Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement shall meet specified quality performance
standards as mutually agreed upon from time to time by

the Parties and in accordance with StorageTek's standard guidelines. The initial
quality standards will be established at the first meeting of the Service
Committee.

5.2 SSI Responsibilities. SSI or one or more of its Subsidiaries will:

5.2.1 provide SSI Level 3 Support to StorageTek Level 3 Support for
Co-branded Products and SSI Certified Compatible List only through End of
Service as described in Section 6.4 of the Distribution Agreement in
accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions hereof;

5.2.2 at SSI's discretion and option, provide the services described
in Section 14.1; and

5.2.3 provide to StorageTek at no charge, replacement Keys as may be
necessary to activate or restart functions and features of previously
licensed Software. Such Keys will be available worldwide on a [*] basis
until the End of Service date for each Co-branded Product and provided
electronically.

SSI Level 3 Support provided by SSI or its Subsidiaries pursuant to this
Agreement shall meet specified quality performance standards as mutually agreed
upon from time to time by the Parties and in accordance with SSI's support

any component that is listed on the SSI Certified Compatible List, SSI or its
Subsidiary(ies) will provide SSI Level 3 support to StorageTek and its
Subsidiaries during such time as such component appears on such list and for a
reasonable time if such component is removed from such list. SSI will provide
StorageTek with 180 days advance notice of SSI's intent to remove any such
component from such SSI Certified Compatible List and the StorageTek may
escalate the removal of the component, pursuant to Section 9.4.1(e) of the
Distribution Agreement.

5.4 Anomalies. The responsibilities of each of StorageTek and SSI above
are intended to apply for the Co-branded Products in the vast majority of
service and support requirements; provided, however, that on a case-by-case
basis, there may arise a scenario for service and support which requires the
Parties in good faith to agree upon different responsibilities as to each Party.
In such cases, the Parties agree to reasonably cooperate to address special End
User requirements, it being acknowledged that StorageTek will [*].

6 SUPPORT LEVELS -- DEFINITIONS AND PROCESSES.

The following definitions and processes shall be used by the Parties in
undertaking their respective responsibilities for the Co-branded Products under
this Agreement.

6.1 "Level 1 Support" shall mean that level of support for the Co-branded
Products that will be provided by StorageTek, including first line, End User
contact, most likely via a telephone call handling group provided by StorageTek.
Level 1 Support includes:

- First contact direct End User interaction

- Information collection and analysis

- Determination of service entitlement level

- Identification of whether the problem is known and has a known solution

- Troubleshooting and problem reproduction, as possible

- Problem report administration and tracking

6.2 "Level 2 Support" includes product experts who may serve as the
escalation point for ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ Support is expected to resolve all
known problems, installation and configuration issues, assist in firmware or
driver updates at the End User site, search SSI posted Technical Notes and other
technical information made available by SSI or its Subsidiaries that will assist
in providing problem resolutions. All pertinent data should be entered into
StorageTek's PINNACLE problem management system.

Should the Level 2 Support be unable to resolve a problem, either because
of lack of expertise (after consulting other Level 2 Support or StorageTek Level
3 Support personnel), exhausted troubleshooting knowledge, or expiration of the
allotted Level 2 Support resolution time, the Level 2 Support personnel will
escalate the problem to StorageTek Level 3 Support personnel pursuant to the
escalation matrix on Schedule 2.

Level 2 Support will continue to provide information to StorageTek Level 3
Support in order to accomplish resolution of the problem. Level 1 Support and/or
Level 2 Support shall engage and direct on-site service activities performed by
the End-User or service representatives in their attempts to resolve or remedy
the reported problem. This will include, but will not be limited to, the
replacement of Co-branded Products with Spare Parts or application of Co-branded
Product firmware or software releases and versions.

6.3 "StorageTek Level 3 Support" is the first point of contact for
technical issues between SSI Level 3 Support and StorageTek Level 3 Support,
with primary contact via PINNACLE or by telephone. StorageTek will designate
support specialists to serve as the highest level of problem resolution
capability, with the capability of understanding the design of the Co-branded
Products and the operating environment to be able to determine defect or
problem-related Co-branded Product or system operability.

Prior to escalating to SSI Level 3 Support, it is expected that StorageTek
shall provide all relevant error log and system information through the PINNACLE
system, which may include (but shall not be limited to):

- Log files from Co-branded Product, host system or operating environment

- Names and firmware revisions of hardware equipment

- Firmware revisions or levels

- Other output from devices or software in the configuration

- Such additional information from PINNACLE as may be identified and
reasonably requested from time to time by SSI

6.4 "SSI Level 3 Support" SSI Level 3 Support is expected to provide new
fixes and workarounds, replication for complex problems, resolution of problems
through generation of formal fixes and assistance requiring knowledge of SSI
Level 3 Support personnel of Co-branded Product source code. SSI Level 3 Support
will be provided by SSI technically competent personnel. In any instance where
StorageTek Level 3 Support has verified that, with respect to a problem
involving a Co-branded Product, the applicable components or system complies
with specifications and requirements set forth in the SSI Certified Compatible
List, StorageTek Level 3 Support will escalate the problem to SSI Level 3
Support pursuant to the escalation matrix on Schedule 2. SSI or its Subsidiaries
will be responsible for resolution of the problem, and will utilize commercially
reasonable efforts to resolve such problem. StorageTek and its Subsidiaries will
reasonably cooperate with SSI and its Subsidiaries to provide such additional
information and/or documentation as SSI or its Subsidiaries may deem necessary
or request, and, at SSI's or its Subsidiaries' request, StorageTek will permit
SSI or its Subsidiaries to contact directly End Users if further information may
be needed. In consideration for providing SSI Level 3 Support to StorageTek,
StorageTek will pay to SSI the applicable amounts set forth on Schedule 2 to
this Agreement.

Assigned SSI Level 3 Support technically competent personnel can be
contacted via PINNACLE or email to an established "support" alias, or by calling
SSI's support number at (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇ (for StorageTek's and its Subsidiaries'
use only and not that of Distributors or End Users). Access to SSI Level 3
Support personnel will be available [*].

7. SEVERITY LEVELS -- DEFINITIONS AND GUIDELINES FOR RESOLUTION OF PROBLEMS.

The Parties agree to use the following Severity Level descriptions and
guidelines for resolution of problems associated with the service and support of
the Co-branded Products:

Distribution Agreement. SSI and its Subsidiaries will have sole responsibility
for determining eligibility of a Co-branded Product for warranty service by SSI
or its Subsidiaries and SSI Level 3 Support on a Co-branded Product unit serial
number basis.

9. ENGINEERING CHANGE AND CODE REVISION PROCESSES.

Engineering changes and code revisions for Standard Storage Products that
are released generally to SSI customers through SSI's Internet site shall be
available to StorageTek on the same basis and by the same means to support ▇▇▇▇▇
▇ Support and Level 2 Support by StorageTek in respect of the Co-branded
Products and/or as mutually agreed and implemented by the Parties.

10. PRODUCT SERVICE PLAN.

StorageTek shall prepare a Co-branded Product service plan (the "PRODUCT

support philosophy, techniques, spares, tools, product requirements, and the
support infrastructure necessary to install, implement, maintain, and support
the End User in achieving the expected level of product function and
performance. The Product Service Plan is intended for use within StorageTek and
its Subsidiaries, and by other organizations outside of StorageTek who have
entered into a contract or agreement with StorageTek for the purpose of
distribution, integration, installation, implementation, maintenance, service or
support of a Co-branded Product. The Product Service Plan will be used by
StorageTek and SSI as the standard of performance to measure achievement of
product and service delivery goals for the Co-branded Products.

SSI will, in SSI's reasonable discretion, provide StorageTek with such
information as is then available with respect to a configuration or system to
assist StorageTek in preparing a Product Services Plan for the Co-branded
Products.

Products that are then under a service and support agreement with
StorageTek, directly or indirectly through its channel of distribution;

15.2.4 by StorageTek:

(a) if SSI commits a material breach under this Agreement, upon at
least [*] prior written notice for a material breach by SSI, unless the

equity, shall be entitled to seek to compel specific performance of the
obligations of any other Party under this Agreement, without the posting of any
bond, and if any action should

exercising any right or remedy accruing upon any such breach shall not impair
the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in any such
breach.

This Agreement governs your use of the SANtricity storage management
software, any additional functionality embedded in the firmware which You may
cause to be activated and any additional software or firmware you order or
otherwise acquire from StorageTek for use with the System (together the
"Software"). These terms and conditions apply unless You entered into a separate
written license agreement with Storage Technology Corporation ("StorageTek") for
the use of the Software, in which case that separate agreement shall govern.

LICENSE

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, StorageTek grants You a limited and
non-exclusive license to use and operate the Software on a StorageTek storage
system (the "System"). StorageTek grants You this license pursuant to its right
to sub-license the Software from LSI Logic Storage Systems, Inc. ("LSI"), the
owner of all right, title and interest in and to the Software. Nothing in this
Agreement provides You with any right in the Software except for the license
granted herein.

You may make a reasonable number of copies of the Software for backup and
archival purposes only.

Except as expressly permitted under this Agreement or by applicable law
without the possibility of contractual waiver, You may not copy, merge,
transmit, modify, reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Software, or
sublicense, rent, lease, assign or otherwise transfer the Software to anyone.

TERMINATION

Your license shall automatically terminate when You are no longer in
possession of the System or You violate the terms of this Agreement. Upon
termination of the license You shall immediately stop using the Software, and
purge and destroy any and all copies of the Software with notice to StorageTek
of such destruction or return the copies to StorageTek.

SUPPORT, WARRANTY AND LIMITATIONS

For a period of 90 days following the date of delivery of the Software to
You, StorageTek will provide world-wide telephone support 7 days a week, 24
hours. In the event additional support or on-site service is requested by You,
StorageTek may provide such "billable service" subject to the terms and
conditions of a service agreement. After the initial 90-day period, StorageTek
will provide support as it makes generally available for the Software, subject
to the terms of a StorageTek service agreement and Your payment of related
support fees. StorageTek reserves the right to discontinue support of obsolete
or superseded versions or releases of the Software.

StorageTek warrants for 90 days following delivery of the Software to You
that: (i) the media on which the Software is contained will be free of defects
in material and workmanship; and (ii) the Software will perform in accordance
with published specifications for the Software.

THE FOREGOING WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO
THE SOFTWARE. STORAGETEK DISCLAIMS, AND YOU HEREBY WAIVE, ANY AND ALL OTHER
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR MERCHANTABILITY AND THE STATUTORY WARRANTY OF
NON-INFRINGEMENT. STORAGETEK DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL OPERATE
UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT USE OF THE SOFTWARE WILL MEET YOUR
REQUIREMENTS.

In case of breach of the warranty, StorageTek at its option will: (i)
replace the defective Software; (ii) repair or correct the defective Software so
they will operate in substantial conformance with published specifications for
the Software; or (iii) refund the license fee paid by You for the defective
Software. Any claim based on this warranty must be submitted in writing within
the applicable warranty period. The foregoing states Your sole and exclusive
remedy and StorageTek's sole and exclusive liability with respect to any breach
of the warranty.

Regardless of the basis for any claim, whether in contract, tort, or
otherwise, StorageTek will be liable to You only for the amount of Your actual
direct loss or damage relating to the Software, up to the license fee paid by
You for the Software.

Irrespective of the basis of the claim, StorageTek and its resellers,
licensors and developers of the Software will not be liable for any special,
indirect, punitive, incidental or consequential damages of any kind (including,
without limitation lost profits, loss of or damage to Your records or data, or
the cost of cover), nor will StorageTek be liable for any third party claims
unless specifically provided in this Agreement. Neither party may bring a legal
action under this Agreement more than two years after the cause of action arose.

INDEMNIFICATION

StorageTek will defend at its expense any third party legal action brought
against You to the extent that it is based upon a claim that the Software used
within the scope of this Agreement infringes a United States patent or United
States copyright. StorageTek will pay costs and damages finally awarded against
You in any action that are attributable to such claim, or any settlement amount
payable by You, provided that You: (i) notify StorageTek promptly in writing of
the claim; (ii) permit StorageTek to have sole control of the defense,
compromise or settlement, and (iii) cooperate fully with StorageTek in the
defense or settlement of the claim at no cost to StorageTek.

StorageTek will have no liability for any claim of infringement based on:
(i) use of superseded or altered versions or releases of Software if the
infringement would have been avoided by the use of a current unaltered version
or release of the Software, (ii) modification of the Software by You, or (iii)
the combination, operation, or use of the Software with hardware, software, or
data not furnished by StorageTek.

Should the Software become, or in StorageTek's opinion be likely to become,
the subject of an infringement claim, You will permit StorageTek, at
StorageTek's option and expense, to: (i) replace or modify the Software so that
it becomes non-infringing, (ii) obtain for You the right to continue using the
Software or (iii) grant You a credit in the amount of the license fee paid by
You for the Software.

The foregoing states the entire liability of StorageTek, its resellers,
licensors and developers of the Software, and Your exclusive remedy for any
claim of infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights
related to the Software.

EXPORT POLICY

You agree that You shall not directly or indirectly, export, re-export or
transship the Software in violation of any applicable export control laws or
regulations promulgated and administered by the governments of the countries
claiming jurisdiction over the parties or transactions. You acknowledge that
U.S. laws, regulations and requirements regulate the export of U.S. origin
products/technology and prohibit use, sale or re-export if You know, or have
reason to know, that such products/technology are for use in connection with the
