(i) preinstall the Product software on a Customer System; and

(ii) distribute (directly or indirectly) and sublicense to end users pursuant to the XXXX for each Product the following:

1) the preinstalled Product software (as described in Section 2(a)(i));

2) one (1) unit of APM that includes a copy of the Product software for recovery purposes on external media (i.e., diskette or CD-ROM) which meets the specifications set forth in the OEM Resource Guide, and any additional copies of the Product software as permitted herein; and

3) one (l) COA

in each case, only with those Customer System(s) identified on the Customer System table as licensed for the particular Product(s) and only inside the Customer System package(s) unless otherwise provided in this License Agreement.

(b) COMPANY may distribute a Customer System with one (1) or more Microsoft server operating system Products preinstalled, provided that: (i) COMPANY distributes one (1) copy of the preinstalled Product software, one (1) COA, and one (1) APM for each unit of the Product distributed; (ii) COMPANY shall not make the COA or APM available through any other means or channel, except as otherwise provided herein; (iii) COMPANY reports and pays a royalty for each such Product distributed; and (iv) COAs for all such Products are placed on the Customer System as set forth in Section 2(e). Notwithstanding the foregoing and provided that the COA is not incorporated into the APM, (i) if COMPANY distributes to the same end user customer multiple Customer Systems, each of which is or is to be installed with the same Product, COMPANY is not required to distribute more than one unit of APM for such Product with such multiple Customer Systems, or (ii) if an end user customer requests in writing (i.e., via email, purchase order, request for quote, letter or facsimile) that COMPANY not distribute any APM with Customer Systems for such end user customer, COMPANY shall not be required to distribute any APM with such Customer Systems.

(c) (i) COMPANY may distribute a commercially reasonable number of copies of APM (excluding COA and Product software on external media) upon customer request, provided that: (A) such APM corresponds to the COA affixed to the Customer System chassis by COMPANY; and (B) COMPANY does not market the availability of such APM other than inside the Customer System package.

(ii) COMPANY may distribute a commercially reasonable number of copies of Product software on external media to end user customers upon request, provided that: (A) such external media meets the specifications set forth in the OEM Resource Guide, (B) COMPANY does not market the availability of such external media other than inside the Customer System package, and (C) such end user’s Customer System was originally distributed with a licensed version and release of Product that corresponds to the external media. Such external media may also be installed at the end user customer’s site by COMPANY’S service personnel.

(iii) A COMPANY authorized third-party service center(s) may also install external media upon the request of an end user customer, provided that COMPANY indemnifies MS and MSCORP against any claims arising from or related to such installation.

(d) COMPANY and COMPANY Subsidiaries together may install a commercially reasonable number of copies of each Product software (different language versions of the same Product shall not be considered separate Products) solely in connection with COMPANY’s internal testing of its Customer Systems and only in COMPANY or COMPANY Subsidiary testing facilities. No royalties shall be due and no COAs shall be required for such copies.

(e) Where the COA is provided in a label format COMPANY shall permanently affix the COA in an easily accessible location on the Customer System at the time of manufacture.

(f) COMPANY’s license shall extend to new Supplements following the Product release listed in this License Agreement. At the time of release of a Supplement (or thereafter) MS may grant to COMPANY one or more non-exclusive, limited additional rights in a written notice. If COMPANY elects to exercise any such additional rights, COMPANY shall comply with all terms and conditions specified for such additional rights in the notice. Distribution of a Supplement by COMPANY shall constitute COMPANY’s acceptance of such terms and conditions.

(g) COMPANY shall (i) preinstall the Product software solely in accordance with the installation instructions set forth in the OPK and (ii) not change or delete any portion of the Product unless expressly permitted in this License Agreement or in the OPK. COMPANY may use the information, tools and materials contained in the OPK solely to preinstall the Product software in accordance with the OPK.

(h) COMPANY may use the OPK for the Product(s) licensed under this License Agreement with a software image provided by an end user customer to create a custom image (“Image”) on behalf of such end user customer and may preinstall the Image on Customer Systems for COMPANY’s end user customer provided that:

(1) COMPANY receives an end user customer initiated written request to do so (i.e. via email, purchase order, request for quote, letter or facsimile). At end user customer’s request, COMPANY may accept the XXXX for the applicable Product on behalf of the end user customer as part of the installation of the Image, provided that the end user customer acknowledged in writing to COMPANY to have agreed to the terms of the applicable XXXX as provided to the end user customer by COMPANY; and

(2) COMPANY may engage a third party installer approved by MS to create and preinstall an Image, provided that COMPANY complies with Section 2(g) of the BTD; and

(3) the Product used in the Image is the same version and release as specified on the COA affixed to the Customer System by COMPANY. If the end user customer is exercising its “Use of Previous Version of Software” right granted in the XXXX for a Windows Server 2003 Product and the end user customer has accepted the terms of such XXXX, then the Microsoft server operating system used in the Image shall be a version and release specified in the XXXX for the Windows Server 2003 Product and COMPANY shall affix the

specific COA for such Windows Server 2003 Product to the Customer System. In addition, COMPANY may pre-populate the Product key for the version and release of such Microsoft server operating system specified in the XXXX on behalf of the end user provided that the Terminal Services Licensing service is not installed, unless this service is installed at the end user customer’s request; and

(4) COMPANY may provide one (1) APM that includes a copy of the Product software on external media. In the event that the end user customer is exercising its “Use of Previous Version of Software” right granted in the XXXX for a Windows Server 2003 Product, COMPANY may include one (1) copy of such Windows Server 2003 Product on external media in accordance with the specifications for external media in the OEM Resource Guide.

(5) COMPANY shall keep on behalf of itself and COMPANY Subsidiaries, and require any third party installers to keep, all usual and proper records regarding creation and preinstallation of Images, including the number of Images distributed in each calendar month. COMPANY shall provide such records to MS upon written request.

(6) COMPANY agrees not to provide any end user customer or such end user customer’s agents with a copy of or access to an OPK; and

(7) COMPANY shall defend, indemnify and hold MS and MSCORP harmless from and against all damages, claims, costs, judgments (or settlements to which COMPANY consents) arising from any unlicensed software products (including all MSCORP software products) on the Image.

COMPANY agrees that this Section 2(h) in no way relieves COMPANY of its royalty obligations regarding the Product(s) preinstalled as part of the Image nor does it create a general exception to any other MS license agreement or MS or MSCORP program in which COMPANY may participate.

(i) Provided that COMPANY complies with the requirements in Sections 2(h)(1)-(7) above, COMPANY may provide an end user customer with a copy of the Product(s) preinstalled on the hard drive of a Customer System (“Hard Drive Image”), and distribute such hard drive either in the Customer System or separately from the Customer System to end user customers who may customize the Hard Drive Image to create the Image and return to COMPANY. COMPANY shall permanently affix a revenue-bearing COA on such hard drive or Customer System. COMPANY may return such COA for a credit, provided COMPANY returns the COA in accordance with the COA return requirements of Section 6 of the BTD and the COA procedures of the OEM Resource Guide.

COMPANY agrees that this Section 2(i) in no way relieves COMPANY of its royalty obligations regarding the Product(s) either preinstalled or distributed to the end user as part of the Hard Drive Image or the Image, nor does it create a general exception to any other MS license agreement or MS or MSCORP program in which COMPANY may participate.

(j) COMPANY’s license rights shall be worldwide.

(k) Except as otherwise provided in this License Agreement, COMPANY may distribute Product in only one (1) language and release for use with each Customer System. COMPANY may choose any language for which it is licensed, except as otherwise provided in an Additional Provision listed in the Product Schedule(s) with respect to the Product(s).

(l) COMPANY shall comply with the Additional Provisions listed in the Product Schedule(s) with respect to the Product(s).

(m) COMPANY may supplement but shall not modify or translate Product end user documentation. COMPANY shall not remove or modify the package contents of APM.

(n) COMPANY may grant to COMPANY Subsidiaries the limited rights granted to COMPANY in Section 2, as well as any rights MS may grant to COMPANY for Products licensed herein under a Supplement notice during the term hereof, subject to all the terms and conditions set forth in this License Agreement.

(o) (i) COMPANY’s license to distribute the Product is limited to distribution and sublicense of the Product by COMPANY to end users for use pursuant to the XXXX for each Product.

(ii) If the Product is distributed with a Customer System that is designed to be used without a monitor, keyboard and mouse, COMPANY may suppress the on-screen XXXX in accordance with the instructions provided in the OPK. In such event, COMPANY shall distribute a paper XXXX for the Product as acquired from an AR with such Customer System. If COMPANY distributes the same Product with multiple such Customer Systems to the same end user customer, COMPANY may distribute a single paper XXXX for such Product with such Customer Systems, provided that the number of Product licenses COMPANY shall conspicuously indicate on a paper addendum accompanying such XXXX matches the number of copies of Product installed or to be installed on the Customer Systems. COMPANY shall place a notice (i) over either the Customer System power switch in the “off” position or the power inlet connector which informs the end user that turning on the Customer System indicates acceptance of the terms of the paper XXXX, and (ii) conspicuously printed on, or displayed on a break-the-seal label affixed to, the packaging of any external media distributed for use on such Customer System which informs the end user that opening the packaging indicates acceptance of the terms of the paper XXXX. COMPANY shall translate such notice in the appropriate language version(s) for the jurisdiction(s) in or into which COMPANY distributes the Customer Systems. COMPANY may use an alternative procedure, subject to MS review and approval, provided that (i) the end user is required to take some affirmative action to use or install the Product software, such as breaking a seal; (ii) the end user is advised that taking such action indicates acceptance of the terms and conditions of the XXXX; and (iii) the end user has the opportunity to read the XXXX and the applicable warranty in its entirety before taking such action.

3. Additional Payment Terms.

A Shortfall Balance shall only be recoupable against future royalties under this License Agreement (A) to the extent, and for the amount, that such future royalties exceed the then due minimum commitment payment; and (B) if such minimum commitment payment occurs during the term of this License Agreement. Shortfall Balance is not recoupable against payments made to the Authorized Replicator.

(iv) Once COMPANY has accepted any release of Product pursuant to Section 5 of the BTD, minimum commitment payments are not refundable.

(v) Any amounts credited to COMPANY in accordance with Section 3(g) of the BTD shall be limited to those royalties for which COMPANY’s payments constitute Excess Royalties under this License Agreement.

(d) The Default Charge for a Product licensed under this License Agreement shall be one hundred and thirty percent (130%) of the royalty set forth in the Product Schedule for such Product minus the applicable royalty paid for the Product. In the event the applicable royalty has not been paid for the Product, the Default Charge shall be one hundred and thirty percent (130%) of the royalty set forth in the Product Schedule for such Product.

4. License Term.

The term of this License Agreement shall run from the License Effective Date until one (1) year from the end of the calendar month in which the License Effective Date occurs.

Upon execution by both parties, this License Agreement together with the BTD as incorporated herein and the documents referenced herein shall constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and merges all prior and contemporaneous communications.

ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

(Note: Only those Additional Provisions applicable to licensed Product(s) may appear. Section numbering may not be consecutive.)

(26) COMPANY may install one or more language versions (listed in the Language Version box above) of Product software with each applicable Customer System provided COMPANY shall:

(i) use a utility which allows the end user to choose one (1), and only one (1), language version of Product for the Customer System. Any backup or recovery copy of the Product, shall give end users access to install or recover only one (1) language version of the Product;

(iv) pay the highest royalty applicable to the language versions distributed.

COMPANY may distribute more than one (1) language version of the APM, excluding any recovery or external media, with the Product; provided that COMPANY has installed such language version on the Customer System.

(57) In order to support end users of the Product, COMPANY agrees to employ at all times at least one support technician who has successfully completed, at COMPANY’s expense, the Microsoft Certified Professional program for the licensed version of the Product (or if applicable, for the Windows server operating system component), or if not available, then the Microsoft Certified Professional program for Windows 2000 server operating systems.

(58) At present, the XXXX for the Product provides for a specified number of Client Access Licenses (“CALs”). The number of CALs determines the maximum number of computers or workstations connected to the Customer System(s) which may access certain basic network services as described in the XXXX. The number of CALs included for the Product is indicated in the Product Table above.

(59) Though the OPK for the Product may include versions of the Product designed for various microprocessor architectures, COMPANY is licensed to distribute the Product only with and for use on Customer System(s) based on the microprocessor architecture specified at the top of the Product Schedule.

(62) (a) If a Customer System(s) is licensed on a per system basis for the Product and for one or more other MS operating system products, then COMPANY shall pay MS the royalty for the MS operating system product distributed with such Customer System(s), or in the event no MS operating system product is distributed with such Customer System(s), COMPANY shall pay MS the highest royalty applicable to any licensed language or regional versions of the MS operating system product with the lowest royalty rate(s) that is licensed on a per system basis with such Customer System(s).

(b) COMPANY may not distribute both the Product and any other MS operating system product with the same Customer System(s).

(64) COMPANY is not licensed to distribute a processor version of the Product on a Customer System that includes more processors than the highest number of processors listed for such version in the Product Table. For purposes of this License Agreement, “processor” means a physical processor or central processing unit (CPU).

(393) COMPANY’s license for the Product is being entered into in connection with (i) a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner for Support Services Center for Datacenter agreement and/or addendum between COMPANY and MSCORP (“MGSC Datacenter Addendum”) or an equivalent joint support and services program for the Product defined by MSCORP, and (ii) (A) the Windows 2003 Datacenter Hardware Compatibility Test (“Windows 2003 Datacenter HCT”) specifications or the Enterprise Qualification Program (“EQP”) specifications for Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition, or (B) the Datacenter Hardware Compatibility Test (“Windows 2000 Datacenter HCT”) specifications for Windows 2000 Datacenter Server, as applicable, as made available by MSCORP.

(c) (i) To be valid and effective, one or more Update Subscriptions for the corresponding processor version of the Product or Combination shall have been in effect for each month since the Distribution Date.

(ii) If an Update Subscription is acquired after the Distribution Date, COMPANY also shall report and pay MS Update Subscription royalties for each month from and including the Distribution Date through the date end user first acquires an Update Subscription for the Designated System. For example, if an Update Subscription is acquired six (6) months after the Distribution Date, COMPANY would report and pay royalties for seven (7) months, i.e., royalties for the current month and the prior six (6) months. If the Designated System originally was distributed with a lower processor version of the Product or a Combination, and later upgraded to a higher processor version of the Product or a Combination, then royalties for the prior months shall be calculated based on the Update Subscription(s) for the lower processor version of the referenced Product or Combination.

(d) During the term of a current and valid Update Subscription:

(i) COMPANY shall distribute Updates to that end user for deployment on one (1) Designated System installed with the corresponding processor version of the referenced Product or a Combination, provided however, COMPANY may distribute Updates to an end user only if and for so long as COMPANY continues to offer technical support for the Designated System on which the Update will be deployed.

(ii) COMPANY shall indicate to the end user whether the end user’s Designated System would pass (A) the then current Windows 2003 Datacenter HCT or EQP specifications for Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition or (B) the then current Windows 2000 Datacenter HCT specifications for Windows 2000 Datacenter, as applicable, if the Updates are installed.

(e) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the License Agreement, Updates described in this Additional Provision may be distributed to end users separate from a Customer System as follows:

(A) An Update that includes an operational copy of a licensed Product shall be BIOS-locked (applies only to the 32-bit version of the Product) and distributed only on COMPANY branded external media or via a COMPANY, restricted access web site.

(B) An Update that does not include an operational copy of a licensed Product may be BIOS-locked (applies only to the 32-bit version of the Product) and shall be distributed only on COMPANY branded external media or via a COMPANY, restricted access web site.

(ii) An Update shall be provided to the end user with the XXXX included with the Update as delivered to COMPANY by MS.

(26) COMPANY may install one or more language versions (listed in the Language Version box above) of Product software with each applicable Customer System provided COMPANY shall:

(i) use a utility which allows the end user to choose one (1), and only one (1), language version of Product for the Customer System. Any backup or recovery copy of the Product, shall give end users access to install or recover only one (1) language version of the Product;

(iv) pay the highest royalty applicable to the language versions distributed.

COMPANY may distribute more than one (1) language version of the APM, excluding any recovery or external media, with the Product; provided that COMPANY has installed such language version on the Customer System.

(57) In order to support end users of the Product, COMPANY agrees to employ at all times at least one support technician who has successfully completed, at COMPANY’s expense, the Microsoft Certified Professional program for the licensed version of the Product (or if applicable, for the Windows server operating system component), or if not available, then the Microsoft Certified Professional program for Windows 2000 server operating systems.

(58) At present, the XXXX for the Product provides for a specified number of Client Access Licenses (“CALs”). The number of CALs determines the maximum number of computers or workstations connected to the Customer System(s) which may access certain basic network services as described in the XXXX. The number of CALs included for the Product is indicated in the Product Table above.

(59) Though the OPK for the Product may include versions of the Product designed for various microprocessor architectures, COMPANY is licensed to distribute the Product only with and for use on Customer System(s) based on the microprocessor architecture specified at the top of the Product Schedule.

(62) (a) If a Customer System(s) is licensed on a per system basis for the Product and for one or more other MS operating system products, then COMPANY shall pay MS the royalty for the MS operating system product distributed with such Customer System(s), or in the event no MS operating system product is distributed with such Customer System(s), COMPANY shall pay MS the highest royalty applicable to any licensed language or regional versions of the MS operating system product with the lowest royalty rate(s) that is licensed on a per system basis with such Customer System(s).

(b) COMPANY may not distribute both the Product and any other MS operating system product with the same Customer System(s).

For example, if an Update Subscription is acquired six (6) months after the Distribution Date, COMPANY would report and pay royalties for seven (7) months, i.e., royalties for the current month and the prior six (6) months. If the Designated System originally was distributed with a lower processor version of the Product or a Combination, and later upgraded to a higher processor version of the Product or a Combination, then royalties for the prior months shall be calculated based on the Update Subscription(s) for the lower processor version of the referenced Product or Combination.

(A) An Update that includes an operational copy of a licensed Product shall be BIOS-locked (applies only to the 32-bit version of the Product) and distributed only on COMPANY-branded external media or via a COMPANY, restricted access web site.

(B) An Update that does not include an operational copy of a licensed Product may be BIOS-locked (applies only to the 32-bit version of the Product) and shall be distributed only on COMPANY branded external media or via a COMPANY, restricted access web site.

(ii) An Update shall be provided to the end user with the XXXX included with the Update as delivered to COMPANY by MS.

COMPANY shall provide such information to MS on a monthly basis.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Additional Provision, COMPANY may distribute Updates to an end user of a Customer System installed with a Combination, provided that the total number of processors of such Combination does not exceed the total number of processors of the current and valid Update Subscription(s) designated to such Customer System.

(395) MS will provide to COMPANY OEM Sales-Out Reporting Guidelines, which may be revised from time to time during the term of this License Agreement.

(ii) the Product is BIOS-locked (applies only to the 32-bit version of the Product) and provided to the end user on COMPANY-branded external media;

(iii) the Product is installed only on the Customer System by either (i) a COMPANY technician or (ii) the end user pursuant to COMPANY’s instructions; and

(iv) the Customer System, as installed with the Product, shall be in compliance with all terms and conditions set forth in this License Agreement, including without limitation, carrying the COA sticker for the Product.

(b) COMPANY also may distribute the Product directly to an existing end user of a previously distributed Customer System subject to the same conditions as set forth in subsection (a) of this Additional Provision, provided that such Customer System shall have been previously installed and used with validly licensed operating system software.

(428) (a) COMPANY shall ensure that each Customer System (as installed and configured for end user operation with the Product and all other software and/or hardware installed on the Customer System) meets the specifications set forth in (A) the then current Windows 2003 Datacenter HCT or EQP for Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition or (B) the then current Windows 2000 Datacenter HCT for Windows 2000 Datacenter Server, as applicable, regardless of where the Product was installed.

(436) COMPANY shall distribute or install Customer Systems with the Product only to or at locations for which COMPANY meets and continues to meet the requirements set forth in the MGSC Datacenter Addendum (or an alternate joint support and services program defined by MSCORP) as may be modified from time to time.
