12. Section 16.5 is revised to include the following at the end of the Section:

16.10 Force Majeure: Disaster Recovery. No Party shall be liable for any default or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement or any Companion Agreement if and to the extent such default or delay is caused, directly or indirectly, by fire, flood, earthquake, elements of nature or acts of God, wars, riots, civil disorders (other than strikes or other labor action that are specific to Supplier), rebellions or revolutions, acts of terrorism or any other similar cause beyond the reasonable control of such Party except to the extent that the non-performing Party is at fault in failing to prevent or causing such default or delay, and provided that such default or delay can not reasonably be circumvented by the non-performing Party through the use of commercially reasonable alternate sources, workaround plans or other means.

15. Section 16.1 (“Notices”) shall be amended as follows:

Notices to Supplier shall be sent to Rainmaker Systems Inc.,

  Attn: CFO/Legal

900 East Hamilton Ave. Suite 400,

Campbell, CA 95008.

16. A new section 16.11 (“Government Calls”) shall be added as follows:

16.11 Government Calls. If the scope of any Statement of Work includes Supplier’s handling of calls or related to data associated with Sun contracts with US government agencies (“Government Contracts”), such calls will be processed in the United States by Rainmaker Personnel who are US Citizens, and who are Rainmaker employees, not contractors. Such calls will be processed in a discrete portion of the Rainmaker or Sun Facility servicing such calls and will be received via a separate phone number from other services provided by Rainmaker in such facility. Additionally, Rainmaker will maintain the data on IT systems that are located in the United States, and access to those systems will be limited to US citizens only (including all Workers, end users and back-end system administrators). This requirement shall exist as the result of a specific US governmental regulation or requirement contained in Sun’s Government Contracts. Rainmaker will establish a process for verifying US citizenship of affected employees, and, at Sun’s request, will certify to Sun that the Rainmaker Personnel providing services associated with Government Contracts are US citizens.

17. All terms and conditions of the Agreement which are not inconsistent with the terms of this Addendum shall remain in full force and effect.
