It is acknowledged and agreed that the Supplier’s and Customer’s obligations required in Phases I through 3 as well as the Enclosure Design and Tooling have been performed prior to the date hereof. Those Schedules to this Agreement that constitute separate agreements shall each have an appropriate term specified, which shall not be affected by the term of this Agreement unless specifically addressed therein.

CONCEPTUAL DESIGN (PHASE 1)

Upon the terms, and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, the Customer and the Supplier agree that the Supplier shall provide a conceptual design and line drawings of the proposed System. Detailed specifications will be drawn up, and the Supplier will also provide the estimated unit selling prices. Customer acknowledges that the Supplier has already satisfactorily completed this phase and that the Wildcard Conceptual Design document dated April 3 2000 (“CDSD”), , as the result of this phase, has been accepted by the Customer. .

ELECTRONIC DESIGN, PROTOTYPE ELECTRONICS AND DIAGNOSTIC SOFTWARE (PHASE 2)

Upon Acceptance, by the customer, of the CDSD, described in paragraph 4 above, the Supplier shall commence with the designing of the Product enclosure using 3-D computer aided design. A computer generated prototype unit will be manufactured by the Supplier from this design., using dummy electronics to give a “hands on” feel of the System. Once the Customer has accepted the enclosure, this enclosure will be used for the prototype electronics. Customer acknowledges that this phase has already been satisfactorily completed and formally accepted by the Customer on June 30, 2000. Supplier acknowledges that Customer has fully paid for this Phase 2.

INITIAL WORKING PROTOTYPE (PHASE 3)

Upon completion of Phase 2 comprising the development of the electronic design, design of prototype electronics and the provision of diagnostic software, described in Article 5 above, by the Supplier, the Supplier shall commence the development of three (3) working prototypes built into the same enclosure described in Article 5 above. These working prototypes will not perform the full application, but will demonstrate the use of the various electronic components with diagnostic software.

The Customer acknowledges that this phase has already been satisfactorily completed and formally accepted by the Customer. Supplier acknowledges that Customer has fully paid for this Phase 2.

ENCLOSURE DESIGN AND TOOLING PHASE

This phase involved the final design and tooling of the enclosure based on the styling and design as agreed between the parties. The Customer has elected to pay for the cost of the tooling according to the costs set forth in Schedule and upon payment of same, physical ownership of the tool shall vest in Customer with the tool being loaned to the Supplier for the duration of Supplier’s manufacturing commitments. The Customer acknowledges that this phase has already been satisfactorily completed and formally accepted by the Customer. The Supplier acknowledges that Customer has fully paid for this enclosure and tooling phase.

Any subsequent changes or enhancements to the tooling will be for the Customers account. Should any future changes be required to the enclosure design and/or tooling, then the Supplier will provide a written quotation to the Customer for implementing these changes. Changes and or enhancements to the tooling will only commence once the Customer has accepted the quotation in writing, as well as any relevant conditions. Ownership of the modified or new tooling as applicable shell vest in the Customer with the relevant tooling being loaned to the Supplier for the duration of the Supplier’s manufacturing commitments.

UPDATED SYSTEM DESIGN (PHASE 4)

The phase involves the redesign of the System to allow for the implementation and use of the Finpos Software Engine (SAPPHIRE) as requested by the Customer. The original System as specified in the Wildcard Conceptual design Specifications Document dated April 3 2000 did not require or cater for SAPPHIRE, which necessitated the redesign of the System as per Phase 4. SAPPHIRE is specified in Attachment B. A prototype of the Phase 4 System has been supplied to the Customer on July 31 2001. The cost of developing the Phase 4 System up to point of shipping the Phase 4 Prototype is for the account of the Supplier. The hardware specification of the Phase 4 System is attached in Attachment C. It is envisaged that this hardware implementation will go into production.

Should any future design changes be required to the System other than those required in terms of the warranty conditions as per this agreement, the Supplier will provide a written quotation to the Customer for implementing these changes. Changes and or enhancements to the System will only commence once the Customer has accepted the quotation in writing, as well as any relevant conditions.

A total of * Phase 4 prototype units will be supplied to the Customer at a cost of * each. These units will contain a cleaned up printed circuit board layout containing the integrated circuitry for the electro luminescent back light.

The units will be used for demonstration, validation, EMC testing etc. These tests and certification activities will be for the Customer’s account

The pre-production phase will not be started until confirmation has been received in writing from the Customer that this phase has been fully accepted.

The Customer will refund the Supplier the IrDA licensing cost of * plus shipping upon presentation of the original invoice from the licensor to the Supplier. The additional * royalty for production devices will be included in the unit cost.

IMPLEMENTATION OF SAPPHIRE

The phase involves the porting and testing of SAPPHIRE to the Phase 4 System. There is no cost for this activity. The license fee for SAPPHIRE will be incorporated in the cost of each System supplied by the Supplier to the Customer.

Should any future changes be required to SAPPHIRE by the Customer, the Supplier will firstly determine if such changes could be incorporated in future enhancements of SAPPHIRE used by all the Supplier’s SAPPHIRE customers. If so the changes will be made free of charge. However, should the Supplier determine that these changes are not relevant to any other SAPPHIRE implementation the Supplier will provide a written quotation to the Customer for implementing these changes. Changes and or enhancements to SAPPHIRE will only commence once the Customer has accepted the quotation in writing, as well as any relevant conditions

10.
