Phase Forward SLSA 8.7 16 13.4 DISPUTES INVOLVING RELEASE OF SOURCE CODE. If any dispute arises concerning the release of the Source Code to GSK by the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent will notify Phase Forward and GSK in writing that it has received written notice from Phase Forward disputing the release of the Source Code. Within five (5) business days from this notification executives from GSK and Phase Forward, each of which will hold at least vice-president or equivalent status within their respective organizations, shall meet to resolve the dispute in good faith. If such a meeting does not resolve the dispute, within ten (10) business days of such meeting, unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Parties will attempt to resolve the dispute by sending the matter to non-binding mediation by a mutually agreed upon third parry. If no resolution is reached within a further fifteen (15) business days, the parties agree that such dispute will be settled by arbitration conducted on an expedited basis before three (3) arbitrators, selected in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). Such arbitrators shall be knowledgeable in the business of software development and information technology. Arbitration is to take place in Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, in accordance with the rules for commercial arbitration of the AAA. In the event of a conflict between the AAA rules and this Paragraph 13.4, then this Paragraph 13.4 shall prevail. Depositions may be taken and discovery obtained in any such arbitration proceedings in accordance with New York law. New York law shall be applied by the arbitrators for both evidence and substantive law questions during arbitration. The arbitrators will be instructed to render a decision on the limited question of whether or not a Release Event has occurred within fifteen (15) days after the end of the hearing. Judgment upon the award of the arbitrators, enforced in accordance with Pennsylvania law, shall be final and binding upon the Parties and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The parties acknowledge and stipulate that this is a commercial contract and that any award, judgment or order, interim or final, shall be enforceable as a commercial award, judgment or order wherever such enforcement is sought. The arbitrators shall give effect to the applicable statute of limitation in determining any claim, and any controversy concerning whether an issue is arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrators. Section 7 of this Agreement entitled "Confidentiality" shall apply to the arbitration proceeding and all evidence taken. GSK and Phase Forward jointly agree to reimburse Escrow Agent for any and all costs incurred as a result of any Arbitration including reasonable attorney's fees. 14. GENERAL 14.1 GSK'S REQUIREMENTS. Software programs for business use are inherently complex, and GSK is solely responsible for the evaluation of its software requirements, selection of software to satisfy those requirements, and verification of resulting data. 14.2 DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to any provision of this Agreement shall be referred to upper management of the Parties for good faith discussion and resolution. The Parties agree that pending resolution of a dispute Phase Forward shall continue to perform its obligations under this Agreement and, except as provided in Paragraph 12.3.1, GSK shall continue to make payment to Phase Forward for any undisputed amounts. If any dispute, controversy or claim cannot be resolved by such good faith discussion between the Parties, then each shall have all remedies available to them at law or in equity. 14.3 ASSIGNMENT.

Scheduled Maintenance will be scheduled in consultation with the Customer in advance so to minimize any adverse impact on the conduct of the Clinical Study. 8.4 Incident Resolution Should any call received by First Level Support need resolution outside of that group, it is passed to Phase Forward's Second Level Support, who undertake a triage process to understand the incident, and classify errors with the mutual agreement of the Customer, based on the definitions below. A description of the incident and the rationale behind the assigned rating is explained to the Customer as part of the acknowledgement and prioritization process. Matrix 1 Priority Definition Priority 0 Catastrophic problem impacting multiple system users of active production system. System cannot be used at all. Problem perceived as presenting potential trial data integrity risks. Priority 1 Serious problem impacting multiple system users. System can be used but functionality seriously impacted. Problem not perceived as presenting potential trial data integrity risks. Priority 2 Malfunction which prohibits use of one or more of the material functionalities of System. System is still usable and trial data integrity is intact. Priority 3 Malfunction which prohibits use of one or more non-material functionalities of System. System is still usable and trial data integrity is intact. Priority 4 Malfunction which does not belong to any of the aforementioned priority classes. TIMELINE FOR COMMUNICATION OF PLAN PROPOSALS AND UPDATES Timelines for the communication of initial assessment/response, proposals for incident resolution plan and follow-up updates are based on the Overall Priority rating as detailed by the matrix below. Phase Forward will meet or exceed these timescales *% of the time. The timescales set forth below for the process steps, acknowledgement through to initial assessment are measured from the Customer's initial call to the First Level Support helpdesk. Timelines set forth below for the communication of proposals for incident resolution plan and follow-up updates are only applicable on Phase Forward has received all reasonably necessary information from the Customer (which information shall be specified by Phase Forward as being reasonably required to enable it to reproduce the incident) and has been able to successfully reproduce the incident. Phase Forward will attempt to reproduce the incident as soon as practical after it has been reported and in any case within any specified timescales set out in this Schedule. Matrix 2

* * -- ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND PRIORITY CONFIRMATION: Acknowledgement that Second Level Support has been notified of the request of support to resolve a technical problem, that the request has been logged in the department CRM system, and that a ticket ID has been assigned to the problem. In addition, the support request is assigned a priority based on the Technical Severity and Time Urgency of the reported problem. The priority may be modified at a later time using the escalation process. From that point forward, all communications with the Customer will include the support ticket ID. -- RESOLUTION PLAN PROPOSED: Communication proposing an action plan to resolve the incident, or reduce its severity level. -- FOLLOW-UP UPDATES: Written communications documenting status of the resolution of the incident. TARGET TIMELINES FOR INCIDENT WORK-AROUNDS Incidents may be resolved by implementing either a direct resolution or a work-around. -- Direct resolutions are defined as technical or process-based solutions aimed at resolving the incident. Once implemented, resolutions restore the original functionality and performance of the Services as outlined in the applicable Contract. - Work-arounds are defined as technical or process-based solutions aimed at resolving the Incident or reducing its severity. Work-arounds must be compliant with appropriate regulatory requirements. They may, or may not, be the long-term solution. Work-arounds will enable the Services to be performed substantially in accordance with the functionality and performance requirements specified in the applicable Contract. Phase Forward's Second Level Support group may have to escalate to other internal technical resources or external technical resources to assist with the incident resolution (provided all contract requirements are satisfied). During technical escalation, Second Level Support keeps ownership of the incident and maintains its communication requirements, as detailed earlier. When an incident is the result of an issue with a 3rd party software product, such as Oracle, timelines for incident work-around are communicated, but not established, by Second Level Support and fall outside of the incident work-around timelines proposed below. Either party may escalate incidents within the other party's organization by using the Dispute Resolution Procedure Timelines for the proposal of incident work-arounds are based on the Overall Priority rating as per the matrix below. Phase Forward's shall meet or exceed these targets *% of the time. Target timelines below for work-arounds are only applicable once Phase Forward has received all necessary evidence and information from Customer and has been able to successfully reproduce the incident. Phase Forward will attempt to reproduce the incident as soon as practical after it has been reported. In the event that Phase Forward fails to meet a timeline due to the unavailability of necessary evidence and information requested from Customer, Phase Forward will demonstrate this has been the case, if required, to the Customer.
