"principal partner" of ICC located, and/or making sales to customers, in
Europe. ICC will be able to signup European trading partners of its
non-European based customers if they originally come from non-European
based ICC customers. "Principal partner" means that only HiServ and Cable
& Wireless will be able to provide hosting facilities in Europe.
Additionally ICC agrees for the duration of this contract not to have
direct sales personnel in Europe.
4.2 After Q8(see item 8.4), item 4.1 shall cease to apply if in any two
consecutive quarters the Actual Quarter Amount (see item 8.4) is less than
the following minimum amounts:
Q9 through Q12: (US) $ 2,250,000.00
Q13 through Q16: (US) $ 3,000,000.00
Q17 through Q20: (US) $ 5,000,000.00
Provided that, HiServ shall have the option to pay the difference between
the Actual Quarter Amount and the applicable minimum amount for the
quarter in question, which payment must be received by ICC within 30 days
of the relevant quarter's end. In the event that HiServ exercises
3
this option and pays this amount, the Actual Quarter Amount in question
shall be deemed not to be less than the relevant minimum amount, and the
provisions of Item 4.1 shall remain in effect.
4.3 ICC grants HiServ worldwide exclusivity to the Thyssen ▇▇▇▇▇ Group and the
Aventis Group for ICC EDI Service Offerings. Consequently, during the
duration of this Agreement, ICC shall not, directly or indirectly, provide
any ICC EDI Service Offerings to companies within the Thyssen ▇▇▇▇▇ Group
and/or the Aventis Group (The term group shall comprise all affiliated
companies within the meaning of the German Stock Corporation Act).

major continental Europe markets. However, HiServ is entitled to market
and provide the ICC EDI Service Offerings worldwide on a non-exclusive
basis.

applicable statutory law or its warranties, against all liability and
third party claims resulting from a malfunction of the ICC EDI Service
Offerings or from a violation of this Agreement provided that - with
the exception of claims resulting from the intent or gross negligence
on the part of ICC - in no event shall any damages which may be
assessed against ICC for any reason exceed (US) 500,000.00 in the
individual case and (US) $1 million in a contract year. This provision
shall not apply if the malfunction falls within HiServ's sphere of
responsibility. For this the burden of proof is with ICC. ICC shall
also not be held responsible if the third party claim is a result of an
express warranty that HiServ grants its customers, provided that this
warranty exceeds any warranty granted by ICC to HiServ as well as
HiServ statutory obligations. ICC also agrees to examine certain
customer situations on a case-by-case basis if reasonably requested by
HiServ.
7. HiServ shall be free in its marketing strategies and policies, including,
but not limited to, the selection of its customers, its retail pricing for
its customers, in the presentation of the ICC EDI Service Offerings, and
the use of the name and brand of ICC. ICC agrees to work closely with
HiServ to redefine and position the ICC Service Offerings for the European
marketplace.

8.1 Subject to the commitment outlined below in item 8.3, HiServ agrees to pay
for the ICC EDI Service Offerings according to the prices set out in the
schedule in the Addendum to this agreement [attachment 2].
8.2 ICC will provide HiServ with a monthly invoice setting out the total fees
owed by HiServ to ICC for the previous 30 day period. HiServ shall pay the
monthly invoice within 30 days of receipt of the invoice.
8.3 At the end of each quarter ICC will calculate the total amount of the
monthly invoices delivered to HiServ (the "Actual Quarter Amount") and
determine if the Actual Quarter Amount is less than the amount for the
corresponding quarter as set out in the table below (such amounts, the
"Floor Quarter Amount"). With the exception of the first quarter, in the
event that the Actual Quarter Amount is less than the Floor Quarter
Amount, HiServ will pay to ICC, within 30 days of the relevant quarter's
end, the difference between the Floor Quarter Amount and the Actual
Quarter Amount. The Floor Quarter Amount for Q1 will be paid to ICC
immediately upon signing this Agreement. The Floor Quarter Amount for Q2
and the following Quarters ("Qs") will not be payable until (i) the escrow
agreement referred to in item 3.3 shall have been entered into (provided
that the absence of entering into the escrow agreement shall not be due to
unreasonable requests of HiServ with respect to the escrow agreement, and
(ii) ICC will have deposited the Escrow Materials, as to be deposited
under item 3.3 upon signing, with the Escrow Agent. It is understood that
only in the first quarter is the Floor Quarter Amount paid in advance and
that subsequent quarters the amount due will be paid within 30 days of the
relevant quarter's end. Other than the option set out in item 4.2, no
Floor Quarter Amount shall exist after Q8.

9. Technical cooperation
9.1 HiServ will perform Level 1 and Level 2 technical support to its
customers. Level 3 technical support will be provided by ICC to HiServ and
HiServ's customers. HiServ will use a trouble ticket system-Action Request
(ARS Remedy). ICC uses Sales and Support Logix. ICC and HiServ will
develop a solution to exchange information between the systems, or ICC
will use the HiServ ARS system. ICC will provide to HiServ and its
customers the same 24x7 (24 hours, seven days a week) Level 3 support that
it provides its own customers; no extra-fees shall be payable for such
support. If it is necessary, and as the parties start to develop the
relationship, ICC is prepared to further explain the dynamics of the
support for the HiServ customer base. HiServ shall not be liable for any
damages suffered by ICC or customers which are caused by the use of the
HiServ ARS system.
9.2 ICC will provide immediate access to the ICC system so that HiServ
technical personnel can begin product testing on a reasonable basis.
9.3 ICC will provide mapping support, at ICC's cost, as needed.
9.4 The HiServ-ICC system will have the same software level as the ICC system
(peer hosting). Thus, ICC shall provide HiServ with new software versions
or updates which are used for the ICC EDI Service Offerings as soon as
possible after ICC first made use of the new software, but in any event,
no later than one month after ICC first made use of the new software.
9.5 ICC will provide demo software and also provide remote demo capabilities.
As with other resellers, ICC will provide these capabilities at ICC's
cost.
9.6 ICC will provide training on a reasonable basis to HiServ technical
personnel at HiServ locations. The exact levels of training will be
mutually agreed by the parties, as the parties start to roll out the
service for the HiServ organization in Europe. Training shall be provided
at ICC's cost.
9.7 Wherever this Agreement makes reference to ICC' s cost, only direct cost,
including out-of-pocket expenses, shall be meant.
10. Marketing
10.1 Where appropriate and as mutually agreed upon by the parties, HiServ and
ICC will collaborate their sales activities. To start these activities,
ICC technical sales personnel will train HiServ product sales personnel,
at ICC's cost. HiServ product sales personnel will then train HiServ sales
personnel.
10.2 HiServ and ICC will provide collaborative marketing activities:
1. Joint press release (the content of which shall be mutually approved
by the parties) and announcement of the agreement.
2. Install links to the web sites of both companies.
3. Participate in exhibition like CEBIT.

5. Supporting product information.
5
In this connection the parties shall cooperate closely to provide a basis for a
coordination of the sales efforts and the sales organizations of both parties.

translation abilities for the product, HiServ will first provide
capability in German. Capability for French and other primary European
languages will follow.

of their respective organizations, an account manager who will act as a
single point of contact for this effort. Initially, issues arising out of
