II     SCOPE OF SERVICES

       2.      Obligations of Contractor

       (a)     CONTRACTOR shall maintain a program control center capable of receiving by
               telephone any operator reports of system irregularities.

       (b)     CONTRACTOR shall maintain a 24 x 7 telephone hot line that allows NORCOM
               to report system problems and seek assistance in use of the Licensed Program.

       (c)     CONTRACTOR shall maintain a trained staff capable of rendering the services
               set forth in this Agreement.

       (d)     CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for using all reasonable diligence in
               correcting verifiable and reproducible Errors when reported to CONTRACTOR in
               accordance     with     CONTRACTOR’s          standard    reporting procedures.
               CONTRACTOR shall, after verifying that such an Error is present, initiate work,
               within Response Time, in a diligent manner toward development of an Error
               Correction. The estimated time required to complete the Error Correction shall be
               reviewed with NORCOM. CONTRACTOR will utilize its best efforts to achieve
               a timely resolution.        Following completion of the Error Correction,
               CONTRACTOR shall provide the Error Correction through a “temporary fix”
               consisting of sufficient programming and operating instructions to implement the
               Error Correction, and CONTRACTOR shall include the Error Correction in all
               subsequent Releases of the Licensed Program.

       (e)     CONTRACTOR shall provide programming modifications mandated by changes
               to existing federal and state regulations in effect as of the date of the original
               Software License Agreement. Reports will be provided that use data supported
               within the applications software and they will provide all necessary data and totals

15989b0b-e824-4adb-81de-05ef74acbfc1.doc                                                   Page 2

               required to complete government-mandated forms.        If required, programs to
               transfer data to tape media will be provided.

       (f)     CONTRACTOR may, from time to time, issue new Releases of the Licensed
               Program to its clients generally, containing Error Corrections, minor
               Enhancements, and, in certain instances, major Enhancements. CONTRACTOR
               shall provide NORCOM with one copy of each new Release or major
               enhancement, without additional charge.           CONTRACTOR shall provide
               reasonable assistance to help NORCOM install and operate each new Release,
               provided that such assistance, if required to be provided at NORCOM’s facilities,
               shall be subject to the supplemental charges set forth in CONTRACTOR’s current
               Fee Schedule.

       (g)     Subject to space availability and training fees, NORCOM may enroll its
               employees in CONTRACTOR’s training classes, held at CONTRACTOR’s
               facility for regular or advanced training.

       (h)     CONTRACTOR shall consider and evaluate the development of Enhancements
               for the specific use of NORCOM and shall respond to NORCOM’s requests for
               additional services pertaining to the Licensed Program (including, without
               limitation, data conversion and report-formatting assistance), provided that such
               assistance, if agreed to be provided, shall be subject to supplemental charges
               mutually agreed to by CONTRACTOR and NORCOM.

       (i)     CONTRACTOR software support, although primarily intended for
               CONTRACTOR application software, also extends support for all operating
               systems where CONTRACTOR has an agreement with the supplier. However,
               NORCOM must be aware of the following facts for operating system support:

       (j)     CONTRACTOR will provide the first level of support for operating system and
               hardware.

       (k)     CONTRACTOR is forced to work with the company that developed the operating
               system. If that company fails to provide quality support, CONTRACTOR will
               not be able to provide quality support. Also, if the company charges
               CONTRACTOR for their support, NORCOM will be billed for these charges.

       (l)     Some operating system problems can only be solved on-site. If and when this
               situation occurs, CONTRACTOR personnel will travel to NORCOM’s site with
               NORCOM’s approval. NORCOM will be billed according to the CONTRACTOR
               fee schedule for travel expenses and comprehensive per diem.

       (m)     In the event that an error is identified in the operating system, CONTRACTOR
               will immediately report the error directly to the provider and will cure with the
               same provisions in Section 2.1(d) of this section.

       (n)     CONTRACTOR will provide assistance with operating system upgrades but
               NORCOM is responsible for obtaining the upgrade from CONTRACTOR and
               paying any required fee.

       (o)     CONTRACTOR will review all operating system upgrades in advance to verify
               that the upgrade is compatible with the system software.

       (p)     CONTRACTOR agrees to provide such services to NORCOM as long as such
               services are provided to any other CONTRACTOR client, and NORCOM meets its
               obligations as defined herein.

       3.      Obligations of NORCOM

       (a)     NORCOM shall provide reasonable access to its facilities in connection with the
               performance of CONTRACTOR of its obligations hereunder. No charge shall be
               made for such access. It is agreed that prior notification will be given when access
               is required.

       (b)     NORCOM must provide CONTRACTOR with all relevant information to
               NORCOM, in order to assist CONTRACTOR in duplicating the circumstances
               under which a Problem in a Software Product became apparent.

       (c)     NORCOM must maintain a modem and data set connected 24 hours per day, 7
               days a week, to the direct dial network near any CPU used with a Software
               Product being maintained by CONTRACTOR hereunder and provide access to a
               dedicated voice grade local telephone.

       (d)     All communications by NORCOM to CONTRACTOR must be in the English
               language.

       7.      Restrictions on Use

       (a)     Except as otherwise set forth in Section 4(b), the licenses granted hereunder are
               restricted to use by NORCOM to perform the basic functions associated with the
               Software.

       (b)     Notwithstanding Section 4(a), commencing on the expiration of the Warranty
               Period, NORCOM may also use the licenses granted hereunder for the purposes
               of hosting the Software for other entities that are part of the eGov Alliance and
               permitting individuals associated with such entities to access and use the Software
               and the Documentation for the xxxxxxxx (high-level descriptive) requirements of
               such entities (NORCOM may also market such services to current and

               each case as contemplated by the Software Maintenance Agreement; (iv) create
               no obligations owing by CONTRACTOR to such entities (in that regard,
               NORCOM hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and save harmless
               CONTRACTOR from any claims that may be made against it by such entities in
               relation to the System); and (v) require such entities to comply with the provisions
               of this Agreement, the Purchase Agreement and the Software Maintenance
               Agreement, to the extent applicable, it being acknowledged that a breach of the

               readable code, nor will it permit or help others to do any of the foregoing.

       (b)     NORCOM agrees that it will not copy or otherwise reproduce the Software and
               that any additional copies as are reasonably necessary for the use of the Software
               shall be provided to NORCOM through the issuance of additional User Licenses
               at CONTRACTOR’s then current charges (provided that until the second
               anniversary of the Go-Live date, the pricing in respect of User License, as such
               fees appear in Addendum A – Scope of Work attached to the Purchase
               Agreement dated month day, 20xx, will be fixed and not subject to change
               provided there has been no decrease in price. If there has been a decrease, then
               the NORCOM shall be entitled to pay the current rate.), except that NORCOM
               shall be permitted to maintain (i) as many copies of the Software as it reasonably
               requires to implement its disaster recovery policies and procedures, provided that
               any such copies referred to in this clause (i) may only be used for back-up and
               disaster recovery purposes and (ii) no more than five copies of the Software
               (including the production copy) in operational databases (collectively, the copies
               of the Software referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) being herein referred to as the
               “Permitted Copies”), without paying additional User License fees or incremental
               Server License fees in respect thereof, provided that the number of Users utilizing
               the Software at any time through those Permitted Copies referred to in (ii) above
               may not exceed the number of concurrent User Licenses then in effect.

               Any additional User Licenses required by NORCOM within two years following
               the Go-Live date shall be issued to NORCOM in exchange for the User License
               fee (and corresponding incremental Server License fee, if applicable) specified in
               Addendum A – Scope of Work attached to the Purchase Agreement dated
               month day, 20xx. Thereafter, any additional User Licenses required by
               NORCOM shall be issued in exchange for CONTRACTOR’s then prevailing
               User License fee (and corresponding incremental Service License fee, if
               applicable).

       (c)     NORCOM agrees that it will not modify, enhance or otherwise change the
               Software without the prior written consent of CONTRACTOR. Any modification
               of, or enhancement to, the Software, whether developed by NORCOM or
               CONTRACTOR, shall be the exclusive property of NORCOM.

               information of CONTRACTOR, which shall, at all times, remain the property of
               CONTRACTOR. Through the grant of licenses pursuant to Section 2, NORCOM
               is only entitled to use of the Software in accordance with the terms of this
               Agreement. Except for the license and rights granted herein, all rights, title and
               interest in and to the Software remain with CONTRACTOR.

       (b)     NORCOM will ensure that the Universal Copyright Convention symbol and other
               copyright and proprietary notices of CONTRACTOR will remain on the Software

               patents, copyright, trademarks, trade secrets or other proprietary rights in the
               Software. NORCOM will take the same care to safeguard the Software as it takes
               to safeguard its own confidential information and such care shall not be any less
               than would be taken by a reasonable person to safeguard its own confidential
               information.

       (c)     Except as otherwise provided by this Agreement, no third party, other than duly
               authorized agents or employees of NORCOM or members of the eGov Alliance
               that have executed Hosting Agreements, in each case authorized pursuant to the
               User Licenses issued hereunder, shall have access to or use of the Software.

       (d)     In order to assist CONTRACTOR with the protection of its proprietary rights with
               respect to the Software and to enable CONTRACTOR to ensure that NORCOM is
               complying with its obligations with respect to the proprietary nature and
               confidentiality of the Software, NORCOM shall permit CONTRACTOR to visit
               during normal business hours any premises at which the Software is used and
               shall provide CONTRACTOR with access to such Software.

       11.     Ownership and Disposition of Documents

        In addition to any modifications, customization or alterations of the software specifically
designed to meet the needs of the NORCOM, all materials and documents developed or prepared
by CONTRACTOR under this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement dated Month day, 20xx,
specifically for NORCOM and which are not the copyright of any other party or publicly
available, including educational materials, the Software and any other computer applications,
shall be the property of the NORCOM.

                                       ADDENDUM A
                                    ESCROW AGREEMENT



1.    CONTRACTOR agrees to deliver in a sealed package a copy of the Source Code for the
      computer software supplied, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, to Escrow Agent,
      __________________________________________________________.


2.    The sealed package containing the Source Code shall be so marked. If any modifications are
      contracted in the future, Source Code for these modifications shall be placed in escrow and
      marked with the name of NORCOM.


3.    In the event CONTRACTOR ceases doing business, becomes insolvent or a bankruptcy
      proceeding is filed by or against CONTRACTOR, and such proceedings are not dismissed
      within 60 days, or fails to meet its obligations for providing software support as defined in the
      Software Maintenance Agreement, the Escrow Agent, upon the written demand of
      NORCOM, shall release the Source Code to NORCOM, provided that the Escrow Agent
      shall first give CONTRACTOR written notice of such demand.


4.    The release of the Source Code by the Escrow Agent to NORCOM shall be solely for the
      purpose of enabling NORCOM to use and maintain the software for its own internal use, and
      CONTRACTOR hereby grants to NORCOM a paid-up, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to
      use and modify the Source Code for such purposes and for no other. Under no
      circumstances shall NORCOM be authorized to use such software or license others to use
      the same for any purpose other than the internal needs of NORCOM.


5.    The responsibilities of the Escrow Agent are limited solely to the receipt and custody of the
      sealed packages containing the Source Code, the receipt of any notices from NORCOM
      relating to the items in 3 above and the delivery of the sealed packages containing the Source
      Code to NORCOM as contemplated by this Agreement.


6.    Within 30 days of Final Acceptance or full payment, whichever is later, CONTRACTOR
      agrees to deliver Source Code for the installed version of the products to the Escrow Agent.
      CONTRACTOR will require that Escrow Agent to notify NORCOM in writing within 30
      days of receipt of the Source Code.


7.    CONTRACTOR will update Source Code no less frequently than annually, at its expense,
      after the initial delivery of Source Code to the Escrow Agent.

8.    NORCOM may verify the validity of Source Code at its expense at any time. NORCOM shall
      assume responsibility for any CONTRACTOR expenses associated with the verification
      process.


9.    Source code may also be purchased as an option.
