awarded and/or any settlements entered into for such infringement,
subject to the terms and conditions set forth below. Customer may elect,
at its expense, to have its own counsel assist in its defense of any such
action. CrossWorlds' obligations under this Section 10 do not include
payment for any enhanced damages or attorneys' fees arising out of claims
of willful infringement made against Customer, unless based on the

return of the Affected Software and credit to Customer a portion, if any,
of the License Fee equal to the amount paid by Customer for the Affected
Software less one-sixtieth (1/60) thereof for each month or portion
thereof that this Agreement has been in effect.
10.2. Exclusions. If a third party brings a claim, action or proceeding for
infringement against CrossWorlds arising out of (i) CrossWorlds'
compliance with Customer's designs, specifications or instructions, (ii)
Customer's use of other than the then-current version of the Software, if
such infringement would have been avoided by Customer's use of the
then-current version; or (iii) any modifications or marking of the
Software not specifically authorized in writing by CrossWorlds or
pursuant to authorized use of the Tools, then CrossWorlds shall have no
liability under this Section 10 and Customer shall defend, indemnify and
hold CrossWorlds harmless from and against such claim, action or
proceeding provided (i) CrossWorlds provides Customer with written notice
of any such claim within thirty (30) days of receipt by CrossWorlds of
such claim; (ii) CrossWorlds allows Customer to control the defense
and/or settlement of the proceeding or action with counsel of its choice;

consent; and (iv) CrossWorlds provides Customer with reasonable
assistance in connection with such proceeding or action at no charge to
CrossWorlds for CrossWorlds' time. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, Customer shall not enter into a settlement without first
obtaining CrossWorlds' consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

enhanced damages or attorneys' fees arising out of claims of willful
infringement made against CrossWorlds, unless based upon the actions or
inactions of Customer. Customer will not be obligated to provide such
defense or payment unless (i) CrossWorlds provides Customer with written
notice of any such claim within thirty (30) days of receipt by
CrossWorlds of such claim; (ii) CrossWorlds allows Customer to control
the defense and/or settlement of the proceeding or action with the
counsel of its choice; (iii) Customer has agreed in writing prior to any

11.1. General. Each party acknowledges that the Confidential Information of the
other constitutes valuable trade secrets and each party agrees that it
shall use the other party's Confidential Information solely in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement and will not disclose, or permit to
be disclosed, the same, directly or indirectly, to any third party
without the disclosing party's prior written consent. Each party agrees
to exercise due care in protecting the Confidential Information of the
other party from unauthorized use and disclosure. However, a party bears
no responsibility for safeguarding the Confidential Information of the
other party that is publicly available, already in such party's
possession and not subject to a confidentiality obligation, obtained by
such party from third parties without restrictions on disclosure,
independently developed by such party

without reference to the information of the other party, or required to
be disclosed by order of a court or other governmental entity.
11.2. Remedies. In the event of actual or threatened breach of the provisions
of Section 11.1, the non-breaching party will have no adequate remedy at
law and will be entitled to immediate and injunctive and other equitable
relief, without bond and without the necessity of showing actual money
damages.
12. Term and Termination.
12.1. Term. This Agreement will take effect on the Effective Date and
will remain in force until terminated in accordance with this Agreement.
12.2. Termination by Customer. Customer may, by written notice to CrossWorlds,
terminate this Agreement if CrossWorlds is in material breach of any
term, condition or provision of this Agreement, which breach is not
cured within thirty (30) days after Customer gives CrossWorlds written
notice of such breach.
12.3. Termination by CrossWorlds. CrossWorlds may, by written notice to
Customer, terminate this Agreement if any of the following events
("Termination Events") occur:
12.3.1. Customer fails to pay any amount due CrossWorlds within thirty (30) days
after CrossWorlds gives Customer written notice of such nonpayment; or
12.3.2. Customer is in material breach of any non-monetary term, condition or
provision of this Agreement, which breach is not cured within thirty
(30) days after CrossWorlds gives Customer written notice of such
breach; or
12.3.3. Customer: (a) terminates or suspends its business; (b) becomes
insolvent, admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as they
mature, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or becomes
subject to direct control of a trustee, receiver or similar authority;
or (c) becomes subject to any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding under
any federal or state statutes or other statutes of the country in which
it is organized.
If any Termination Event occurs, termination will become effective
immediately or on the date set forth in the written notice of
termination. Termination of this Agreement will not affect the
provisions regarding Customer's or CrossWorlds' treatment of
Confidential Information, provisions relating to the payment of amounts
due, governing law and dispute resolution procedures or provisions
limiting or disclaiming either party's liability or duty of
indemnification (so long as the event giving rise to the duty of
indemnification occurred during the term of the Agreement), which
provisions will survive termination of this Agreement.
12.4. Effect of Termination. The later of thirty (30) days after the date of
termination or discontinuance of this Agreement for any reason
whatsoever or after the end of any Transition Period (as defined in
Section 12.5), Customer shall return the Software and all copies except
for an archival copy of the Software and Documentation, in whole or in
part, all Documentation relating thereto, and any other Confidential
Information in its possession that is in tangible form and destroy/erase
any Confidential Information in electronic form, and CrossWorlds shall
return all Confidential Information acquired from Customer in its
possession that is in tangible form and destroy/erase any such
Confidential Information in electronic form. Customer and CrossWorlds
shall furnish the other party with a certificate signed by its executive
officer verifying that the same has been done.
12.5. Transition Assistance. CrossWorlds acknowledges and agrees that the
Software provided to Customer and Affiliates hereunder is critical to
the central mission of Customer and Affiliates. In the event of the
expiration or other termination of this Agreement, CrossWorlds shall, if
requested by Customer or an Affiliate, continue the parties' rights and
obligations hereunder pro rata for one (1) period of 30 days (the
"Transition Period") and cooperate in good faith with Customer and
Affiliate and their agents to transition Customer and Affiliates,
including without limitation, providing, to the extent available,
applicable requirements, standards, policies, operating procedures and
other documentation and unwritten information relating to the
environment affected by the transition out of this Agreement and
complying with other reasonable requests of Customer and Affiliates (the
"Transition Assistance Services"). If requested, CrossWorlds shall
assist Customer and Affiliates in developing a plan which shall specify
the tasks to be performed by the parties in connection with the
Transition Assistance Services and a schedule for performance of those
tasks. Following the Transition Period for a period not to exceed 30
days thereafter and to the extent not already complied with, CrossWorlds
shall answer all reasonable and pertinent verbal or written questions
from Customer or Affiliates regarding the Software and the transition on
as "as needed" basis and deliver to Customer or Affiliates any remaining
information and materials of Customer or Affiliates that are in
CrossWorlds' possession, custody or control. CrossWorlds shall transfer
or assign, upon Customer's or the Affiliate's request and where
appropriate, to the extent such rights are available and assignable, any
third party contracts applicable to the performance of CrossWorlds'
obligations under the Agreement. CrossWorlds acknowledges and agrees
that it has an absolute and unconditional obligation to provide Customer
and Affiliates with Transition Assistance Services at the quality and
level of performance during the Transition Period that would be required
during the regular term of the Agreement. In the event that an entity or
unit of Customer or Affiliates, or the business or part thereof, is sold
or otherwise divested (the "Divested Entity"), CrossWorlds shall, upon
request, provide the foregoing Transition Assistance Services to the
Divested Entity and to the extent that such Divested Entity does not
qualify as an Affiliate during the first three (3) years of the term of
this Agreement, CrossWorlds shall not unreasonably withhold CrossWorlds'
consent to the assignment of the rights under this Agreement to the
Divested Entity as set forth in Section 13, and provided that such
Divested Entity shall agree in writing, prior to accessing the Software,
(i) to enter into an agreement with CrossWorlds containing substantially
similar terms and conditions as set forth in this Agreement, and (ii)
CrossWorlds may enforce such written agreement directly against such
Divested Entity.
13. Non-assignment/Binding Agreement. Neither this Agreement nor any rights
under this Agreement may be assigned or otherwise transferred by
Customer or CrossWorlds, in whole or in part, whether voluntary or by
operation of law, including by way of sale of assets, merger or
consolidation, without the prior written consent of the other party,
which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. Subject to the
foregoing, this Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the
benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

not be construed and will not be deemed to be a waiver of such party's
rights under this Agreement and will not in any way affect the validity
of the whole or any part of this Agreement or prejudice such party's
right to take subsequent action.
Page 5
15.3. Severability. If any term, condition, or provision in this Agreement is
found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, the parties
shall endeavor in good faith to agree to such amendments that will
preserve, as far as possible, the intentions expressed in this Agreement.
If the parties fail to agree on such an amendment, such invalid term,
condition or provision will be severed from the remaining terms,
conditions and provisions, which will continue to be valid and
enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
15.4. Integration. This Agreement (including the Attachments and Appendices and
any addenda hereto signed by both parties) contains the entire agreement
of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and
supersedes all previous communications, representations, understandings
and agreements, either oral or written, between the parties with respect

2. Maintenance Services shall begin upon the Effective Date of the Agreement.
3. Within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date of the Agreement CrossWorlds
("CW") will demonstrate the utility of its software by completing two initial
interfaces.
______INITIALS
These interfaces are:
1. API (Annual Physical Inventory) Interface
Step 1: CW will use its SAP Connector to retrieve data from a
Delphi-provided custom SAP IDOC into a CW Business Object. CW will
transform the data values in this business object according to
Delphi-provided transformation rules. During this transformation CW
will perform any necessary code conversions by accessing tables in
the CW CrossReference database (code conversion values to be provided
by Delphi). After transformation, CW will send the converted business
object to the CW Jtext Connector. CW will configure the Jtext
connector's Dynamic Formatter to convert the business object into an
ASCII Flat file which meets Delphi-provided file-format
specifications. The resulting flat file will be delivered to a
specified subdirectory on any Delphi-designated MS Windows file
system (appropriate network access and security clearance to be
provided by Delphi).
__________INITIALS
Step 2: The CW Jtext connector will be configured to poll for the presence
of a 'response' file in a designated subdirectory. When an
appropriately named file (containing Annual Physical Inventory count
information) is detected, the Jtext connector will build a CW
Business Object Incorporating the data from the flat file. CW will
transform the data values in this business object according to
Delphi-provided transformation rules. During this transformation
CrossWorlds will perform any necessary code conversions by assessing
code conversion tables in the CW CrossReference database (code
conversion values to be provided by Delphi). After transformation, CW
will send the converted business object to the CW SAP Connector. CW
will configure the SAP Connector to deliver the values in the
business object to a Delphi-developed custom SAP IDOC. The result
will be the update of inventory count values in the Delphi SAP
system.
__________INITIALS
2. Lockbox Interface
The CW Jtext connector will be configured to poll for the presence of a
Cash Receipts flat file in a designated subdirectory. When an appropriately
named file (containing A/R Cash Receipts data) is detected, the Jtext connector
will build a CW Business Object Incorporating the data from the flat file. CW
will transform the data values in this business object according to
Delphi-provided transformation rules. During this transformation CrossWorlds
will perform any necessary code conversions by accessing code conversion tables
in the CW CrossReference database (code conversion values to be provided by
Delphi). After transformation, CW will send the converted business object to the
CW SAP Connector. CW will configure the SAP Connector to deliver the values in
the business object to a standard SAP IDOC. The result will be the posting of
Cash Receipts Information in the Delphi SAP system.
__________INITIALS
[*]
---------------------------------
/1/ See Third Party Technology Appendix
PR\301822\1
* Certain confidential information on this page has been omitted and filed
separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
[*]
4. [*], CW will immediately begin development of the TMS BOM interface. This
interface will involve moving complex manufacturing Xxxx of Material Information
from Delphi's SAP system to General Motors' Tax Management System.
__________INITIALS
The functional requirements for this interface include:
. Assessment whether the currently provided Delphi-developed custom SAP
function modules populate the custom SAP IDOC efficiently.
. Determination as to whether the assessment warrants either (a) modifications
to the relevant SAP ABAP code or (b) a complete rewrite of this code. If
warranted, CW resources will provide these modifications of rewrites as
required
. Creation of a custom CW collaboration and required custom business objects
. Creation of custom CW maps which will spawn two destination business objects
(each holding all required source information, but configured differently)
1. BusObj1 will be designed as appropriate to meet the file format
specifications required by the EDS Gateway. (EDS Gateway to perform
required Packing and EBCDC conversion)
2. BusObj2 will be designed as appropriate to meet the file format
specifications of the General Motors' Tax Management System
. Delivery of both business objects to instances of the CW Jtext connector
which will build the appropriate flat files
. If necessary (for creation of the flat file capable of being imported
directly by the GM Tax Management System) CW will provide Packing and EBCDC
conversion capabilities through a custom Dynamic Formatter used by the CW
Jtext connector.
__________INITIALS
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, duly authorized representatives of the parties have
executed this Attachment A to the CrossWorlds Software and Support License
Agreement.
