Autodesk and Autodesk Channel Partner Confidential [AUTODESK LOGO] FY03 AUTODESK CHANNEL PARTNER AGREEMENT AND PROGRAMS GUIDE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WHAT IS THE AUTODESK CHANNEL PARTNER PROGRAM? The Autodesk Channel Partner Program is the foundation for establishing and developing a more strategic business relationship with Autodesk. The program delivers financial incentives and channel programs to expand your business opportunities and enhance your profitability. With these objectives in mind, the Channel Partner Program is flexible and it effectively meets the needs of a diverse group of partners, regardless of their business model. Through the Channel Partner Program, a partner can advance to higher partner levels and gain access to greater levels of benefits by meeting established performance criteria. WHAT IS DRIVING SOME OF THE KEY CHANGES FORM FY02 TO THE FY03 CHANNEL PARTNER PROGRAM? The goal of the FY03 Channel Partner Program is to incent and reward partners that are focused on the more difficult and higher value-add sales. Therefore, the program's commission and earnback rewards structure has been redesigned accordingly. For instance, Autodesk ASC Partners will now earn earnback commissions for achieving their overall sales target and for hitting their individual vertical target(s). EXPECTATIONS OF ALL AUTODESK PARTNERS ARE THERE ANY CHANGES TO THE VALUE-ADD REQUIREMENTS IN FY03? No. All the value-add requirements remain the same. At a minimum, Autodesk expects channel partners to perform and properly document the following tasks: 1) establishment of the customer relationship, 2) solution selection, 3) implementation and training plans, and 4) post-sales support offerings. Page 1 Autodesk and Autodesk Channel Partner Confidential [AUTODESK LOGO] WHAT ARE THE RESTRICTIONS RELATING TO PRICE ADVERTISING THIS YEAR? As in the FY02 Value Proposition, channel partners who wish to earn MDF funds and/or qualify for Co-op programs are not permitted to engage in any type of price advertising without Autodesk's approval. Furthermore, due to the vital value-add nature of a customer needs assessment, the contract requires channel partners to conduct a telephone or in-person customer needs assessment as part of the Value Added Services. As always, channel partners will be bound by their Autodesk product authorizations, and all other value-added sales provisions will still apply. Failure of any channel partner to add value in each and every sale of Autodesk restricted products will result in termination of that partner's Autodesk Channel Partner Agreement. The value-add requirements for resellers who sell Autodesk products over the Internet have been changed slightly. A thorough needs analysis is still required before an Autodesk prospect may gain access to web pricing; however, the needs analysis may be conducted virtually via a live web-chat session in lieu of a phone conversation. For more details, please refer to Reseller Online Store Rules located on AutoAccess/Programs/Store. AUTODESK CHANNEL PARTNER AUTHORIZATIONS WHY HAVE YOU CREATED THREE ASC LEVELS; LEVEL I, LEVEL II AND LEVEL III? Autodesk's commitment to all relationships with its channel partners is stronger than ever. Autodesk also believes that the greater your commitment to Autodesk, the more Autodesk is able to help you grow your business. The flexibility gained by having three ASC levels presents Autodesk with an opportunity to introduce enhanced partner benefits in a more cost-effective manner to all ASC partners than would be possible through a single level ASC model. HAVE ANY BENEFITS BEEN TAKEN AWAY OR REDUCED FROM LAST YEARS VALUE PROP? No, all the basic partner benefits from last year remain the same. Only the enhanced benefits (like reimbursement for testing) are varied by partner level. DOES A LEVEL I ASC RECEIVE BETTER PRICING OR HIGHER COMMISSIONS THAN A LEVEL II OR III ASC? No, enhanced benefits do not include pricing preference based on ASC level. Pricing, agency fees, and commissions are the same for all ASC partners. In addition, Value-Added Reseller (VAR) partners receive the same agency commissions as ASC Partners. HOW OFTEN WILL AUTODESK REVIEW PARTNER STATUS IN FY03? Autodesk will review eligibility to enter the ASC program on an annual basis. The next review will take place in Q3 FY03. ASC authorization guidelines are included in Exhibits A and C of your FY03 Channel Partner Agreement. At the same time, ASC partnership levels will be reviewed. Page 2 Autodesk and Autodesk Channel Partner Confidential [AUTODESK LOGO] AS AN AUTODESK VALUE ADDED RESELLER IN FY03, DO I HAVE TO SUBMIT A MARKETING PLAN TO AUTODESK IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR THE AUTODESK CO-OP PROGRAM? No. A marketing plan is not required as part of the Autodesk Co-op Program. AS AN AUTODESK VALUE ADDED RESELLER IN FY03, HOW DO I PARTICIPATE IN THE AUTODESK CO-OP PROGRAM THAT IS OUTLINED IN THE CHANNEL PARTNER PROGRAM GUIDE? Autodesk VARs will be eligible to receive 2% of their commercial purchases in the form of cooperative marketing funds. Each quarter, Autodesk will send its co-op vendor a file with each Autodesk VARs co-op budget in it and the Autodesk VAR will be able to receive reimbursement for qualifying marketing activities. A detailed Autodesk Co-op Program Guide will be posted to AutoAccess in January 2002. AS AN ASC IN FY03, DO I HAVE TO SUBMIT A Q1 MARKETING PLAN? The schedule for submitting marketing plans will not change in FY03 and a plan for Q1FY03 is due by January 4, 2002. Please call your local Marketing Coordinator if you have questions. Please refer to the MDF Guidelines document posted on AutoAccess and on the MDF Online System site for more details. IF I QUALIFY AS AN ASC NOW, CAN I LOSE MY ASC STATUS DURING FY03? In order to maintain ASC status in FY03, channel partners must meet ASC criteria on a continuous basis. The primarily means maintaining an adequate credit rating, meeting all minimum support, personnel and revenue criteria, and offering appropriate support services. WHAT DOES "TELEPHONE INSTALLATION SUPPORT" MEAN? Telephone installation support is technical assistance provided to a customer with the primary purpose of getting the Autodesk software up and running on their system. It is designed to provide the customer with a technical resource in the event they should encounter faulty media, or experience some other issue that prevents the software from running upon installation. Telephone support is not intended to include technical support beyond installation and does not include training or other technical assistance beyond installation support. COMMISSIONS AND EARNBACKS WHAT ARE THE AGENCY COMMISSION PROGRAMS AVAILABLE TO THE CHANNEL PARTNERS THIS YEAR? The FY03 commissionable agency programs available this year are the same as in FY02: Major Accounts, Government Accounts, Autodesk Subscription (for Government & Major Account customers) and the Autodesk Store Agency Program. Agency commissions may also be available for Self-Hosted Products. More information regarding this program will communicated via AutoNews and AutoAccess Online. Page 3 Autodesk and Autodesk Channel Partner Confidential [AUTODESK LOGO] HAVE THE AGENCY COMMISSION RATES CHANGED? Yes, commission rates for Major Account sales and Government Specialist sales have been slightly reduced. This agency sale represents the highest cost per sale for Autodesk, and commission rates have been adjusted in accordance with the rates paid by manufacturers with similar business models. WHAT EARNBACK PROGRAMS ARE AVAILABLE FOR ASCS THIS YEAR? Autodesk will pay earnback credits to ASCs who achieve their overall quarterly attainment target and, additionally, to those who hit their vertical attainment target(s). Earnback credits for overall sales target attainment will be paid only on commercial sales excluding AutoCAD upgrades (AutoCAD to AutoCAD). Commercial, major account, government, and AutoCAD upgrade sales are counted towards overall sales target attainment however. Earnback credits for vertical target attainment are paid on all sales within the vertical segment (ABC, GIS, MCAD). Through the FY03 earnback program, Autodesk is committed to providing extra incentives and rewards to partners who focus their efforts on the value-add commercial sales. WHY ARE EARNBACK CREDITS NO LONGER AVAILABLE ON AUTOCAD UPGRADES? Autodesk wants to reward channel partners for making sales that are difficult to close. An upgrade from one version of AutoCAD to a newer version is perhaps the easiest sale to make. With the introduction of Vertical Sales Targets and associated earnback credits, Autodesk seeks to reward reseller sales efforts accordingly. Autodesk will continue to pay earnback credits on upgrades from AutoCAD to a vertical product. HOW WILL EARNBACK TARGETS BE SET? Targets are based on the revenue goals of the Americas for FY03, local partner business opportunities, historical run rates, and product release cycles. The Autodesk sales teams will carry the same quotas and targets as our partners. Page 4 Autodesk and Autodesk Channel Partner Confidential [AUTODESK LOGO] FY03 AUTODESK CHANNEL SALES PROGRAMS WHY DOES AUTODESK USE THE WORD "AGENCY" THROUGHOUT THE FY03 CHANNEL PARTNER PROGRAM GUIDE? Autodesk partners have always acted in an agency capacity through participation in sales to major and government accounts. Autodesk has added and improved a number of similar programs with other select Autodesk direct customers wherein channel partners may act in an agency capacity and receive commissions for their efforts. Changing the name of these programs better reflects the nature of the programs and the channel partner relationship to Autodesk in such sales. HOW DO I APPLY TO BE A GOVERNMENT SPECIALIST? The Government Specialist application is posted to AutoAccess Online and must be completed and submitted for approval. Only upon authorization by Autodesk will a channel partner achieve the status of Government Specialist, and only then will that partner be eligible for the higher commission rate on government sales. DO MY AUTHORIZED TERRITORY AND PRODUCT AUTHORIZATIONS APPLY TO GOVERNMENT AGENCY SALES? Yes. All sales to government customers must be in compliance with your individual channel partner authorization(s) as stated in the FY03 Agreement and Exhibit(s) B. WHAT REQUIREMENTS MUST BE MET IN ORDER TO RECEIVE COMMISSIONS ON MAJOR ACCOUNT SALES? The Major Account Policies and Procedures document may be found on AutoAccess Online/Policies and Procedures. FY03 AUTODESK PRODUCT AUTHORIZATIONS WHAT HAPPENS IF I DON'T MEET THE VERTICAL PRODUCT TWO-QUARTER CONTRACTUAL MINIMUM? Any channel partner who does not meet their two-quarter contractual minimum(s) on the product(s) for which they are authorized will subsequently lose their authorization to continue selling that product. Channel partners who lose their Autodesk authorization to sell a vertical or horizontal product cannot buy that vertical or horizontal product after the date of de-authorization. A deauthorized channel partner may not re-apply for any Autodesk Channel Partner Program for a minimum of six-months after the effective date of the de-authorization. However, deauthorized channel partners will be permitted to sell-through existing inventory of that product. ARE THERE ANY CHANGES TO THE AUTODESK PRODUCT AUTHORIZATIONS INCLUDED IN THIS YEAR'S CHANNEL PARTNER PROGRAM GUIDE? No. The product authorizations in FY03 remain the same as in FY02. Page 5 Autodesk and Autodesk Channel Partner Confidential [AUTODESK LOGO] IF I AM ALREADY MANUFACTURING AUTHORIZED, DO I NEED TO APPLY FOR THE MECHANICAL DRAFTING AUTHORIZATION? No. All Manufacturing authorized channel partners will automatically qualify for Mechanical Drafting authorization. WHY DOES THE MANUFACTURING VERTICAL REQUIRE "DEDICATED" SALESPEOPLE AND APPLICATION ENGINEERS WHEN THE OTHER VERTICALS DO NOT? The Mechanical space has become very competitive and Autodesk believes that the best way to remain competitive is to provide the most complete sales solution to customers. Requiring each of our authorized channel partners to employ a dedicated salesperson and application engineer works towards achieving this goal. FOR THE MANUFACTURING VERTICAL, WHY AM I REQUIRED TO HAVE A "DEDICATED" SALESPERSON IN MY SATELLITE OFFICE RATHER THAN A "QUALIFIED" SALESPERSON? Autodesk believes that the best way to remain competitive is to provide the most complete sales solution to customers. Requiring each of our authorized channel partners to employ a dedicated sales person in each satellite office works towards achieving this goal. Accordingly, Autodesk expects channel partners to employ a qualified person who only sells products within the Manufacturing vertical in each of its manufacturing-authorized offices. IF I AM ALREADY MANUFACTURING AUTHORIZED AND I WANT TO CARRY THE MECHANICAL DRAFTING AUTHORIZATION, DO I NEED TO ADD ANY ADDITIONAL EMPLOYEES? No. Channel partners who are Manufacturing Authorized and meet all the current requirements for that authorization will meet the qualifications for the Mechanical Drafting Authorization without any further personnel. However, they will have to meet the revenue minimums of the Mechanical Drafting Authorization to remain authorized. Page 6 [AUTODESK LOGO] AUTODESK FY03 CHANNEL PARTNER AGREEMENT AND PROGRAMS GUIDE With the Autodesk Channel Partner Program, Autodesk has embraced a company-wide business strategy with emphasis on partner relationships, a philosophy that extends throughout the company. Autodesk believes that establishing and developing these relationships will ensure an ideal win-win situation for both our partners and for Autodesk. Autodesk's Channel Partner Program forges a strong working relationship between Autodesk and its reseller partners. Through our company-wide commitment to channel-focused processes, Autodesk channel programs offer incentives, marketing, support and effective dialogue, as well as exciting sales opportunities, to our authorized resellers. This guide contains a description of the different types of partner authorizations, sales programs, and product authorizations that make up the FY03 Channel Partner Program. AUTODESK FY03 CHANNEL PARTNER PROGRAM OVERVIEW The Autodesk Channel Partner Program is a comprehensive program that is the foundation upon which a strategic business relationship with Autodesk is built. The Channel Partner Program was founded on the basic premise of providing our channel partners flexibility, and to reward growth and expansion. The benefits available in this program include the critical tools and information necessary to develop, promote and sell Autodesk-based customer solutions. To ensure your success, Autodesk has created a multi-level approach to the Autodesk Channel Partner Program, which includes: - Authorization to market and sell Autodesk products and services - Sales support and training - Technical support and training - Marketing programs, promotions and sales collateral - Advertising and branding - Channel Partner communications through AutoNews & AutoAccess Online - Market Development (MDF) and Co-op Funds - Access to leads and referrals - An invitation to Autodesk's One Team Conference Page 1 [AUTODESK LOGO] FY03 EXPECTATIONS OF AUTODESK CHANNEL PARTNERS Autodesk is committed to providing a successful customer experience by supporting its channel partners with top quality training, marketing programs, and sales tools. Given the complex nature of purchasing and implementing design solutions, it is Autodesk's expectation that channel partners will conduct themselves with the thorough professionalism that customers expect of a technical value-add sale. At a minimum, Autodesk expects channel partners to perform and properly document the following tasks; 1) establishment of the customer relationship; 2) solution selection; 3) implementation and training plans, and 4) post-sales support offerings. Channel partners are expected to use a contact management system to track Autodesk customer information and to provide Autodesk with evidence of the value-add customer relationship upon request, DOCUMENTATION OF CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP The following areas need to be explored with each customer and all appropriate corresponding data should be gathered and documented: - Basic Rolodex information including: Company name; Contact name; Title; Address; Phone number; Email address; Date of contacts; Log of discussion points and actions; Copies of proposals. - Assessrnent of customer's design needs - Problem assessment(s) - Application success metric(s) - Training assessment and needs analysis - Customization requirements - Implementation plan - Post-sales support plan SOLUTION SELECTION It is crucial that each customer understand the full range and variety of current Autodesk product options available in order to choose the most appropriate solution to meet their business needs. Both the channel partner and Autodesk benefit when a customer purchases the solution that is best for them and their individual design goals. IMPLEMENTATION AND TRAINING As an Autodesk Channel Partner you are expected to assist and enable the customer in the successful implementation of the Autodesk solution they have purchased. Your expert guidance is crucial to the success of the sale and, ultimately, to the customer's successful use of the solution. Page 2 [AUTODESK LOGO] PAST-SALES SUPPORT After the sale and implementation of an Autodesk solution, the Autodesk Channel Partner is expected to be the first line of technical support for the customer. Channel partners are required to offer post-sales support solutions to every customer and it is expected that there will be a corresponding charge to the customer. In the few instances where the channel partner cannot satisfactorily resolve a customer problem and where escalation to Autodesk is necessary, the channel partner continues to "OWN" the problem and the customer relationship, and it is that channel partner's responsibility to follow the issue through to a suitable resolution. Autodesk reserves the right to contact customers in order to validate the value-add provided by the Autodesk Channel Partner, and to require the channel partner to present evidence of a value-add relationship.

Page 8 [AUTODESK LOGO] FY03 AUTODESK EDUCATION RESELLER (AER) PROGRAM In FY03, the Autodesk Education Reseller (AER) Program will include new, more logical sales territories, each having specific sales targets. In FY03, MDF will continue to be provided to AERs in the form of an additional up-front product discount. AERs are required to provide Autodesk with supporting documentation and receipts for all MDF-related activities. AERs are responsible for tracking their MDF discount on all invoices form Autodesk, and for spending the MDF provided only on approved activities. SUMMARY OF FY03 AER PROGRAM CHANGES - Creation of logical territories with each territory having specific requirements and sales targets. - Marketing plans for each territory are required and will be reviewed quarterly between the AER and Autodesk. - AERs are required to provide sufficient documentation in order to obtain the pre-approval needed for continuation of MDF discounts. AER commissions will be posted on AutoAccess Online. Page 9 [AUTODESK LOGO] FY03 COMMISSION AND EARNBACKS STRUCTURE For FY03, Autodesk has established vertical earnback targets. This represents a key change from last year's Channel Partner Agreement and reflects Autodesk's commitment to incent and reward channel partners who focus on the higher value-add vertical product sales. ASC Partners who achieve their vertical sales target will receive a 2% earnback credit on all vertical product sales. ASC Partners who achieve 100% or 115% of their overall sales target will receive a 3% or 5% earnback credit on all commercial purchases. All sales will count towards overall target attainment but earnback commissions are only paid on commercial product sales (excluding AutoCAD upgrades). FY03 ASC EARNBACKS

Page 10 [AUTODESK LOGO] FY03 AUTODESK CHANNEL SALES PROGRAMS Autodesk's various agency programs allow channel partners to receive commissions for assisting Autodesk in the sale, support, and implementation of Autodesk software to select Autodesk direct customers. Agency commissions are paid to channel partners for both their pre-sales activities and for technical installation support to Major Account, Government, and Autodesk Store customers through these various programs. These programs include: - Autodesk Major Account Program - Autodesk Government Account Program - Autodesk Store Program - Autodesk Hosted Products Program - Autodesk Direct Support Program KEY FY03 CHANGE: EXCEPT FOR DIRECT MAJOR ACCOUNT BUSINESS (WHERE AUTODESK INVOICES/COLLECTS FROM THE CUSTOMER DIRECTLY), THE AUTODESK SUBSCRIPTION PROGRAM WILL NO LONGER OPERATE UNDER THE AGENCY BUSINESS TRANSACTION MODEL. EFFECTIVE FEBRUARY 1, 2002, SUBSCRIPTION SALES WILL FOLLOW THE STANDARD BUY/SELL RESELLER MODEL THAT EXISTS FOR MOST AUTODESK PRODUCTS. Autodesk expects its partners to perform the following activities in order to be eligible for agency commissions: PRE-SALES ACTIVITIES - Account coordination with Autodesk Major Account Rep. - Opportunity forecasting - Pre-sales demos - Meeting coordination - Reference site visits - Needs assessment and solution recommendation POST-SALES ACTIVITIES - 60-days of basic telephone installation support (see attached Questions & Answers document for more details) - New product demonstrations - Marketing events and promotions - Subscription program assistance - Post-sale fee-based support offering Page 11 [AUTODESK LOGO] MAJOR ACCOUNT AGENCY PROGRAM Large corporations have product needs and requirements that are different from those of smaller customers. Because of the larger size of these types of customers and the extended length of the sales cycle, and due to the complexity of transactions that is intrinsic to these types of sales, Autodesk has established a Major Account Program. The Major Account Program is specifically designed to address the unique needs of these larger customers. While Autodesk takes these orders directly, our channel partners play a crucial role in closing the sale, in the implementation process, and in providing other services during the on-going relationship with these Major Account customers. Autodesk relies on its channel partners for much of the delivery, implementation, integration, training, and technical support to Major Account customers. In addition to the benefit of earning agency commissions on qualified Major Account sales, the channel partner has an opportunity to sell a myriad of its own services to these Major Account customers directly and to participate in non-going training, upgrades and technical support with Autodesk. In order to earn a commission on a Major Account sale, channel partners must meet certain requirements, including: 1) Having the appropriate product authorization and, 2) Having the proven ability to add significant value to the customer in both the pre-sale and post-sale process. Detailed requirements will be posted to AutoAccess. For FY03, Autodesk Major Account agents can earn commission rates of up to 17% of the Major Account customer's Autodesk software purchases on horizontal product sales and up to 23% of the Major Account customer's software purchases on vertical product sales. If, in the sole and exclusive judgment of Autodesk Sales management, a channel partner has not successfully completed the required pre- and post-sales activities, Autodesk reserves the right to pay reduced agency commissions or no agency commissions. Major Account Subscription commissions will be paid at 20% on both new and renewal Subscription contracts. NOTE: Resellers are prohibited from selling commercial inventory or Subscription to any Major Account customer directly. A list of Major Accounts may be found on AutoAccess Online/Policies and Procedures. AUTODESK GOVERNMENT AGENCY PROGRAM Government Accounts, similar to Major Accounts, may be complex. Additionally, Government Accounts are highly regulated by State and Federal governments. In an effort to address these unique needs, Autodesk has developed a GSA Schedule and has partnered exclusively with DLT Solutions to administer sales to our government customers. For FY03 we will continue to have two channel partner tiers for reselling products to government customers: - Autodesk Government Affiliate - Autodesk Government Specialist Page 12 [AUTODESK LOGO] Every Autodesk Systems Center and Autodesk Value Added Reseller qualifies as an Autodesk Government Affiliate and can participate in the Autodesk Government Agency Program. Requirements to earn commissions under this program include holding the required product authorization and adding significant value in both the pre-sale and post-sales process. In FY03, Autodesk Government Affiliates can earn up to 10% of the sales amount in commissions for all product sales. Detailed requirements will be posted to AutoAccess. In addition, if a channel partner focuses on the government sector they may qualify as an Autodesk Government Specialist, which offers the opportunity for an increased commission rate. To qualify as an Autodesk Government Specialist you must: - Be an Autodesk Systems Center or Autodesk Value Added Reseller - Maintain a designated qualified government sales specialist on staff - Conduct a minimum of two government specific marketing events per quarter - Sell at least $40K of Autodesk products every two quarters to government accounts In FY03, Autodesk Government Specialists may earn up to 17% of the Government customer's Autodesk software purchases on horizontal product sales and up to 23% of the Government customer's Autodesk software purchases on vertical product sales. If, in the sole and exclusive judgment of Autodesk sales management, channel partners have not successfully completed the required pre- and post-sales activities, Autodesk reserves the right to pay reduced commissions or no commissions to that channel partner. Government Subscription commissions will be paid at 20% on both new and renewal Subscription contracts. NOTE: Resellers are prohibited from selling commercial inventory or Subscription to any Government customer directly. AUTODESK STORE AGENCY PROGRAM The Autodesk Store provides customers the speed and convenience of ordering online. Autodesk Channel Partners may be eligible to receive agency commissions on Autodesk Store sales when they are actively engaged in the Autodesk Store sales process and when they fulfill the requirements of the Autodesk Store Agency Program. In FY03, Autodesk Store Agents may earn up to 18% in commissions on Autodesk software purchases of horizontal products and up to 20% in commissions on Autodesk software purchases of vertical products. For a channel partner to be eligible to receive the Autodesk Store Agency commission, the Store purchaser/customer must select the channel partner from a drop-down pick list at time of purchase. If, in the sole and exclusive judgment of Autodesk sales management, channel partners have not successfully completed the required pre- and post-sales activities, Autodesk reserves the right to pay reduced commissions or no commissions to that channel partner. Page 13 [AUTODESK LOGO] In addition to receiving an agency fee when named at point of purchase, channel partners can also receive sales fees through participation in the Autodesk Store General Affiliate Program. Affiliate Program partners will receive a 3% sales fee based on the Store purchase price each time a customer links from the affiliate partner's website to the Autodesk Store and makes a purchase. Each participating affiliate partner will receive a unique identifying graphical link to place on their website which enables the Autodesk Store to track affiliate sales traffic. There is no product or territory restrictions for affiliate partners. More information on the Autodesk General Affiliate Program can be found on AutoAccess/Programs/Store. AUTODESK HOSTED PRODUCTS PROGRAM Autodesk hosted products are fully functioning versions of the standard commercial products, with the same features, compatibility, and extensibility. Hosting refers to running an Autodesk product on a central server and then allowing users to access the application through the network. This method of deployment is particularly attractive to customers with large numbers of geographically dispersed users who would like to decrease their software administration and support costs, and who would like to manage their licenses in a more efficient manner. In FY03, Autodesk will no longer be supporting the Citrix Metaframe technology for hosted products. Although Citrix is a workable solution for certain Autodesk products and situations, it has proven unable to support our more powerful products with the level of performance and scalability required by the majority of our customers. Autodesk is exploring a number of alternative streaming-based technologies that appear to be capable of supporting our entire product line, and with far superior performance, flexibility and scalability. In order to focus resources on the exploration of these new technologies, Autodesk has decided to discontinue its support for its Citrix-based products at this time. If and when Autodesk hosted products become available utilizing the newer streaming technologies, we will announce our reseller sales and support polices at that time. AUTODESK DIRECT SUPPORT PROGRAM (ADSP) The Autodesk Direct Support Program provides direct technical support to customers who have made a significant investment in Autodesk software. With multiple levels of support to choose from, the Autodesk Direct Support Program enables customers to choose the support offering that best suits their business needs. There are two ways in which a reseller can earn agency commissions when the reseller is active in the sale of an Autodesk Direct Support agreement: - A reseller can earn a 10% commission for a new ADSP agreement sale when they sell the ADSP agreement without assistance from an Autodesk Sales Representative. - A reseller can earn a 5% commission when the ADSP agreement sale is made in collaboration with an Autodesk Sales Representative. No commission will be paid when the reseller is not active in the ADSP sale, regardless of other reseller activity in the account. ADSP agreement sales do not count towards overall sales target attainment nor will earnbacks be paid on ADSP agreement sales. Page 14 [AUTODESK LOGO] FY03 AUTODESK CHANNEL EXPANSION PROGRAM Throughout FY03, Autodesk, at its discretion, may provide financial, sales, technical, and/or marketing assistance to channel partners who would like to expand their resources to meet mutually defined critical needs. This expansion program will assist resellers who are looking to grow and expand into new sales territories or markets while assisting Autodesk in increasing sales coverage in key areas as needed. Details of this program will be communicated via AutoAccess and AutoNews upon availability. Page 15 [AUTODESK LOGO] FY03 AUTODESK PRODUCT AUTHORIZATIONS Autodesk will maintain its practice of authorizing its channel partners to sell product lines in which they have shown expertise and where they can add specific value to the customer in achieving a whole product solution. For FY03, there will be seven different product authorizations: - AUTOCAD AND HORIZONTAL PRODUCTS - ARCHITECTURE AND BUILDING DESIGN - LAND DEVELOPMENT - MECHANICAL DRAFTING - MANUFACTURING - MAPPING - WEB & MOBILE Each product authorization has specific qualifying criteria that channel partners need to meet on a continuous basis in order to ensure that Autodesk software is implemented successfully. Channel partners must meet standards in the following areas: - QUALIFIED SALES SPECIALISTS AND APPLICATION ENGINEERS - TRAINING, TESTING, AND ACCREDITATION - PRODUCT SALES REVENUE MINIMUMS - SERVICE ACCREDITED SUPPORT PERSONNEL - TECHNICAL SUPPORT INFRASTRUCTURE Both Autodesk Systems Centers and Autodesk Value-Added Resellers must meet the same requirements in order to maintain product authorization. More details about the specific product authorization requirements may be found in Exhibit A. Page 16 [AUTODESK LOGO] SUMMARY The following is a summary of partner program changes from FY02 to FY03. THERE ARE THREE ASC LEVELS: Level I, Level II and Level III. Autodesk ASC Partners are categorized within the Channel Partner Program as a Level I, II, or III based on each partner's revenue and resource commitment to Autodesk products. EARNBACK CREDITS FOR ACHIEVING OVERALL QUARTERLY SALES TARGETS. AutoCAD upgrades will count towards overall sales target attainment, however, earnback credits will not be paid on AutoCAD upgrades (upgrades from AutoCAD to AutoCAD). EARNBACK CREDITS ON VERTICAL PRODUCT SALES. ASC Partners who achieve their vertical sales target will receive a 2% earnback credit on all vertical product sales within the vertical segment (AEC, GIS, MCAD). MAJOR ACCOUNT COMMISSION. The commission rates for major account sales are 17% and 23% for horizontal and vertical products respectively. Major Account Subscription commission rates will remain at 20% for both new and renewal Subscription contracts. GOVERNMENT COMMISSIONS. The commission rates for government specialists are 17% and 23% for horizontal and vertical products respectively. Government Subscription commission rates will remain at 20% for both new and renewal Subscription contracts. AUTODESK SUBSCRIPTION PROGRAM. Effective February 1, 2002 Autodesk Subscription sales will follow the standard buy/sell reseller model that exists for most Autodesk products. The agency model will still exist for Major Account and Government Subscription sales. Page 17 EXHIBIT A - AUTODESK AUTHORIZED PRODUCTS REQUIREMENTS CHART
