Agreement or to which such party has access through its performance hereunder

DEFAULT
-------
If either party fails to perform or observe, in any substantial way, any

applicable, without any further obligation thereunder whatsoever except as to
payment for Goods already received and accepted by Buyer. In the event the

purchase level or discount program, the quantity covered by such canceled
Purchase Order(s) shall be deducted from such commitment, purchase level or
volume required for discount entitlement. The rights provided to the non-
breaching party under this Section are not intended to constitute an election
of remedies, and, except as provided otherwise in this Agreement or the subject

------
Time is of the essence in Supplier's performance of its obligations under

(12) months after the Goods are first used or (ii) eighteen months after the
Deliver Date, whichever period is shorter in duration (the "Warranty Period").
The Buyer will have the right to emend the Warranty Period
for an additional two (2) years by paying the fee, for each unit purchased
hereunder, set forth on Attachment A hereto. In addition, Supplier warrants that
any version of the Software shall properly perform Year 2000 Processing. "Year
2000 Processing" means processing by the Software, which is dependent upon usage
of calendar dates, including dates on or after January 1, 2000. Year 2000
Processing includes both software owned by Supplier and third party software
provided by Supplier that manages and/or manipulates data involving dates,
including single century formulas and multi-century formulas. Correct or proper
Year 2000 Processing means that the Software will not cause an abnormally ending
dating scenario within the application or result in incorrect values generated
involving such dates.
Except for breach of the Year 2000 Processing warranty, which is addressed in
the Section entitled Year 2000 Capability, if buyer notifies Supplier of any
breach of the warranty set forth in this Section during the Warranty Period (if
applicable), and if Supplier, which shall act reasonably and in good faith in
its inspection of all returned Goods, confirms such defect, Supplier's exclusive
liability, and the exclusive remedy of Buyer shall be, at Supplier's
commercially reasonable discretion, repair or replacement of the Goods at no
cost to Buyer. The Buyer may reject such Goods by notifying Supplier in waiting
of such rejection and requesting an RMA number; provided, that such written
notification and request for an RMA number must be received by Supplier during
the Warranty Period (if applicable). Within ten (10) days of receipt of the RMA
number, Buyer shall return the defective Goods to Supplier, insured and with
transportation prepaid, with a written description of the defect. The limited
warranties set forth in this Section shall not apply if (i) the Goods have been
materially altered or modified, (ii) the Goods have been subjected to
negligence by Buyer, computer or electrical malfunction, or (iii) the Goods have
been used, adjusted, installed, maintained, or operated other than in accordance
with instructions furnished by Supplier, or with an application or in an
environment other than that recommended by Supplier.
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION, SUPPLIER PROVIDES NO WARRANTY,
EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, AND SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WITH RESPECT TO
ALL MATERIALS AND SERVICES PROVIDED TO BUYER.
SURVIVAL OF OBLIGATIONS
-----------------------
The parties' obligations under this Agreement which by their nature are intended
to continue beyond the termination or expiration of this Agreement (including
without limitation all payment obligations incurred prior to such termination or
expiration) shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
SUSPENSION OF PERFORMANCE
-------------------------
If bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to Supplier and if this
Agreement has not been otherwise terminated, then Buyer may suspend all future
performance of this Agreement and/or any Purchase Order(s) hereunder until
Supplier assumes and provides adequate assurance of future performance or
rejects this Agreement or such Order(s) pursuant to (S)365 of the
Bankruptcy Code or any successor provision. Any such suspension of further
performance by Buyer pending Supplier's assumption or rejection will not be a
breach of this Agreement and/or any Purchase Order(s) and will not affect
Buyer's right to pursue or enforce any of its rights under this Agreement or
such Order(s) or otherwise.
TAXES
-----
Federal manufacturers or retailers excise taxes, and state and local sales or
use taxes, when applicable, shall be billed as separate items on Supplier's

TERMINATION
-----------
Buyer may at any time and for any or no reason terminate this Agreement and/or
any Purchase Order(s), in whole or in part, by giving sixty (60) days written
notice to Supplier. Buyer's liability, to Supplier shall be limited to payment
for Goods which are ordered by Buyer prior to the effective date of termination
of this Agreement.
YEAR 2000 CAPABILITY
--------------------
Supplier warrants that any version of the Software shall properly perform Year
2000 Processing. In the event of a breach of this warranty, Supplier agrees to
promptly remedy such breach at no additional charge to Ameritech by: (i)
correcting the version of the Software currently used by Ameritech so as to make
it capable of correctly performing Year 2000 Processing; (ii) providing
replacement Software for the Software which is equivalent in function to the
Software and which correctly performs Year 2000 Processing. If, after using best
efforts Supplier is unable to accomplish either of the foregoing options within
ninety (90) days of Buyer's notification to Supplier of any failure of the
Software to correctly perform Year 2000 Processing, Supplier shall indemnify and
hold Buyer harmless from and against any and all liability, loss, or expense
awarded by final judgement against Buyer arising from any third party claims
which alleges damages to the Software. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth in this agreement, Supplier's breach of this warranty, shall not be
subject to any provisions regarding limitations of Supplier's liability set
forth in this Agreement.

@ROAD'S FLEET MANAGEMENT SOLUTION. The Goods operate exclusively as components
---------------------------------
of Supplier's Internet-based Fleet Management solution known as @Road
1. APPLICATIONS: ▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ currently includes an Automatic Vehicle Location
------------
(AVL) application and an optional integrated 2-Way Messaging (Dispatch)
application ("Applications").
------------
2. OPERATION OF APPLICATIONS: The Applications are administered, web-hosted,
-------------------------
and operated by Supplier. Supplier is responsible for debugging the Applications
and regularly updating the Applications.

------------------------
conjunction with hardware accessories from third parties or support software
applications from third parties.
4. INTERNET BASED APPLICATION: Buyer acknowledges Supplier's application is
--------------------------
Interact based. Thus, the data of customers of Buyer who obtain Goods from Buyer
solely for such customers' internal business use, and not for further
distribution or resale ("End Users") is potentially susceptible to security
---------
breaches by third parties. The Applications utilize passwords to limit data
access to authorized End Users. However, this does not guarantee data security.
Thus Buyer will inform End Users of potential data security issues and Buyer and
End Users will hold Supplier harmless from any such data security breaches.

The activation and installation process for VLS is described in Exhibit D,
VLS Activation & install Process. The configuration form that will be used to
collect customer information for provisioning new accounts on the @Road Server
is attached as Exhibit E. Any changes to this form will be mutually agreed to
between @Road and Ameritech. When provisioning a new End User, Ameritech will
fax or email the completed Configuration Form to @Road.
. Customer Deactivation. Ameritech will be responsible for managing
---------------------
the overall deactivation process. The VLS customer Deactivation Form is attached
as Exhibit F. Any changes to this form will be mutually agreed to between @Road
and Ameritech. When a customer requests a deactivation from the VLS Service,
Ameritech will complete the deactivation form and fax or email the completed
form to @Road. @Road will be responsible for removing access by the End User to
the Vehicle Location Service server.
. End User Support. @Road will provide Level 1 Technical Support
----------------
("L1TS") to End Users. The L1TS function accepts calls from End Users or the
Ameritech Wireless Data Call Center ("AWDCC") with questions or problems on the
VLS and RC-10 units. @Road will perform problem isolation, and will escalate to
the appropriate third party (including Ameritech) if it is determined that the
problem cannot be resolved by @Road. If @Road determines that a reported problem
is isolated to the Ameritech CDPD Network, @Road will contact the AWDCC to
report the problem. The AWDCC will be responsible for contacting the appropriate
Ameritech Technical Support Personnel to ensure that the problem is resolved.
The AWDCC will be responsible for contacting @Road to provide notification once
the problem has been resolved.
@Road will accept support calls from 7am until 7pm, Monday through Friday,
Central Standard Time. During off hours and weekends, @Road will provide support
through an answering service designated by @Road. The answering service will
accept the End User's call, and will record the End User's name, company name
and phone number at a minimum. The answering service will then send a page to
the @Road designated on-call technician. The answering service will either
provide the on-call technician with the customer name and phone number via
alpha-numeric page or the on-call technician will call into the answering
service to retrieve it. The on-call technician will then provide a return phone
call to the End User within two hours that the End User placed the call to the
answering service.
. Problem Resolution and Escalation Procedures. @Road will perform the
--------------------------------------------
following procedures to resolve support problems. The category of the problem
reported, as determined by the End User, will determine the escalation procedure
used for resolution.
- Category l - End User reports an unusual abort or shutdown but is
able to restart; End User requests a feature or change to existing
operation - service for the End User remains in operation.
- Category 2 - End User reports one or more RC-10 units are not
functioning or that access to or a feature of the @Road Server is not
functioning properly - service for the End User is down or is
significantly impaired.
- Category 3 - End User reports that one or more RC-10 units are not
functioning or that access to or a feature of the @Road Server is not
functioning properly and L1TS determines that either all or part of the
@Road Server is down - service for an entire customer account or all
customer accounts is down or is significantly impaired.
Category 1. Category 1 calls will be analyzed by the @Road Technical Support
----------
Representative ("TSR") to determine if the problem is part of the capabilities
of the Application Software. The problem will be resolved following the process
described in this Description of Services. If the problem was a temporary
service stoppage, error message or feature request, the problem or feature
request will be documented and forwarded to the @Road Manager of Technical
Support. If necessary, Category 1 problem resolution work is superseded by the
existence of Category 2 or Category 3 problems until the Category 2 or 3 problem
is resolved and the End User(s) is (are) up and running.
Category 2. For all Category 2 calls, L1TS personnel will work immediately and
----------
diligently to attempt to resolve the problem within 2 hours. L1TS personnel will
continue to work during normal business hours on the problem until resolved.
Category 2 problems will be transferred to the next work shift for ongoing work
if the outage is not resolved at the close of shift. @Road will provide
reasonable and best efforts to ensure that all Category 2 issues are completely
resolved within 1 business day. Category 2 problem resolution work is superseded
by the reporting of Category 3 problems if the determination is made that the
Category 2 problem is not related to the Category 3 problem.
Category 3. Category 3 problems are treated with top priority. If L1TS detects a
----------
Category 3 problem, they are instructed to immediately notify all other on-shift
L1TS personnel including the L1TS manager on duty. If the problem has not been
resolved within 30 minutes, the Manager of Technical Support ("MTS") for @Road
will be contacted regardless of the time of day. If not available, progressively
higher levels of management will be contacted. All work by any technical support
person will be suspended and all available resources will be committed to the
problem working around the clock until resolved. @Road will provide reasonable
and best efforts to ensure that all Category 3 issues are completely resolved
within 1 day.
. Scheduled Maintenance and Upgrade Procedures. Network, software and
--------------------------------------------
hardware components of the VLS may require scheduled maintenance to, among other
reasons, improve performance, add features or maintain a current and supportable
infrastructure. @Road and Ameritech will use the following procedure for
scheduling maintenance downtime and for putting new software releases into
service.
Step 1 -- @Road will determine that some combination of hardware, software
or network components must be scheduled for maintenance or replacement. If
@Road determines the maintenance can be performed without material or
visible affect on End Users and thus End Users will incur no downtime from
the upgrade, @Road will proceed with the upgrade at its discretion. If
@Road determines that the maintenance will have a material or visible
affect on End Users including, but not limited to, new features or changes
to End User operation or incur End User downtime, the maintenance procedure
will move to Step 2.
Step 2 -- @Road will send a written notice to Ameritech outlining the
reason for the upcoming scheduled maintenance ("Maintenance Notice"). If
the maintenance work will include new features visible to End Users or
changes to End User operation, @Road will outline the features of the
upgrade including, if known, any potential problems which may be
encountered during or after the upgrade in the Maintenance Notice. Within
the Maintenance Notice, @Road will provide information for Ameritech to
access a test server running the upgraded software. From the time of the
Maintenance Notice, Ameritech has 30 calendar days to perform any testing
of the upgrade. @Road L1TS will be available to Ameritech by telephone or
email to review test results and discuss test progress. At the earliest
possible time, but no longer than 30 days from the date of the Maintenance
Notice, Ameritech will inform @Road in waiting of the acceptance or
rejection of the upgrade. If the upgrade is rejected, Ameritech will
document those problems or features which led to the rejection. If the
upgrade is accepted, the process will move to Step 3. If no response is
received, @Road will consider the upgrade accepted.
Step 3 -- @Road will inform Ameritech in writing of the scheduled
maintenance downtime ("Downtime Notice"). In the Downtime Notice, @Road
will specify the time and date of the maintenance where the date is no less
than 10 calendar days from the date of issue of the Downtime Notice. In the
Downtime Notice, @Road will specify the period of time the service will be
down. This specified period will be considered Excused Downtime.
Ameritech may request a change to the date, time or period by responding in
writing within 5 calendar days from the date of the Downtime Notice. If
Ameritech requests a rescheduling of the maintenance, @Road and Ameritech
will determine a mutually acceptable time, date and period. @Road will then
issue a Revised Downtime Notice and proceed with the maintenance at the
specified time.
. VLS Sales Training. @Road will provide one (1) day of VLS sales training
------------------
at no additional cost to Ameritech sales and technical support personnel for
each Ameritech market which offers the Services hereunder. Thereafter, @Road
will provide additional reasonable training to Ameritech, provided that
Ameritech reimburses @Road for all reasonable travel, lodging, and meal expenses
@Road incurs in connection with providing such training.
. Facilities and Personnel. @Road will provide a full time, dedicated Sales
------------------------
Support Representative ("SSR") to Ameritech for the purpose of training the
Ameritech sales force on an as-needed basis and assisting with customer sales
activity, at no additional cost to Ameritech. The @Road SSR will provide the
sales training at locations provided by Ameritech.
. Covered Markets. @Road will provide training in the metropolitan areas of
---------------
all of Ameritech's CDPD coverage areas.
. Scheduling. Ameritech and @Road will work together to schedule training
----------
times that are mutually acceptable.
