WITNESSETH
WHEREAS, GM owns valuable copyrights associated with technical information regarding service parts for automobile and truck repair and maintenance and the catalogs, illustrations, and charts of these parts as listed in Schedule III of this Agreement, hereinafter referred to as Catalog Data and has the right to authorize others to copy, reproduce, distribute, and use Catalog Data protected by such copyrights, and
WHEREAS, Licensee desires to copy, reproduce, distribute, and use the Catalog Data to market its electronic parts catalog system to General Motors affiliates, authorized GM Dealers, and authorized GM retail outlets (GM Dealers).
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the actual promises herein contained, the parties agree:
1. GRANT OF LICENSE
(a) Licensed Works. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, GM hereby grants to Licensee and Licensee hereby accepts the right, license, and privilege of utilizing the Catalog Data including the right to copy, reproduce, distribute (either through Licensee or Licensees authorized distributors), and use solely and only in support of GM Dealers for use in Licensees electronic parts catalog system and in advertising therefore. The Licensed Works shall hereinafter be defined as the product resulting from the integration of the Catalog Data and Licensees electronic parts catalog system(s). GM reserves the right to change the format and content of the Catalog Data in its sole discretion in order to meet the needs of its GM Dealers.
(b) Territory. The license hereby granted extends to the United States of America and all worldwide countries in which GM Dealers are licensed to operate by GM or its authorized affiliate. Licensee agrees that, unless otherwise authorized by General Motors Corporation in writing, it will not use or authorize any use, direct or indirect, of the Catalog Data in any other area, and it will not knowingly provide the Licensed Works to persons who intend or are likely to use them in any other area.
1
(c) Term. The initial term of this Agreement shall be effective on September 1, 1999, and shall continue until August 31, 2002, unless sooner terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any yearly period from September 1 to August 31 is designated to be an Annual Term.
2. TERMS OF PAYMENT
(a) Royalty Rates. Licensee agrees to pay GM within thirty days after the end of an Annual Term an annual royalty per GM Dealer/Customer served. Such royalty shall comprise a sum equal to the per Dealer User Fee specified in Schedule II and will be based on the number of GM Dealers and Customers approved by GM to whom Licensee provides the Catalog Data. Licensee may prorate the royalty based on the number of months of active service to the GM Dealer for installations during the current Annual Term (i.e., GM Dealer-installed in April of the current annual term would represent royalty due of 5/12th of charges specified in Schedule II for the current Annual Term). GM will have the right, no less than thirty days before the start of the next Annual Term, to update the charges specified in Schedule II.
(b) Update Rates. Licensee agrees to pay GM within thirty days after the end of an Annual Term an annual amount specified in Schedule I for new model and other information necessary to update the Catalog Data. GM will have the right, no less than thirty days before the start of the next Annual Term, to update the charges specified in Schedule I. Payment of update fees may be made in monthly or quarterly installments but will be made in advance of the delivery of the Catalog Data. Upon termination of this Agreement, GM shall continue to provide Licensee with updates to the Catalog Data, in accordance with Schedule III, at the time of termination in order to fulfill Licensees obligations to its customers, for a period not to exceed three years after termination. The updates shall be provided at then-current rates and shall be solely for the support of Licensees existing customers at the time of termination. Royalty and update fee payments to GM in accordance with section 2(a) and this section of this contract will be in effect during this period of termination.
(c) Publication Start-up Package. GM will provide documentation for the Catalog Data which describes the data format and sequence. Licensee will pay, upon the release of the Catalog Data and publications start-up package by GM, a one-time payment as specified in Schedule I as the start-up charge. This start-up charge may be made in installments during the first Annual Term based on the date of execution of this contract and in accordance with the terms detailed in section 2(b).
2
(d) Periodic Statement. Licensee shall render to GM, on a periodic basis (for quarters ending in November, February, May and August) on or before the fifteenth day of the month following the end of a quarter a written statement, certified to be accurate by Licensee, identifying the GM Dealers to whom Licensee has provided Catalog Data during the preceding quarter. Such statements shall be furnished to GM whether or not Licensee has provided Catalog Data to any GM Dealer in the immediately preceding quarter. This written statement shall at the minimum include: GM Dealer, name, address, GMSPO Dealer Code and date of first Catalog Date delivery. This information will also be provided in machine readable form. Requirements for communicating this data will be a 3 1/2 diskette in an MS Excel spreadsheet or an acceptable format agreed upon by GMSPO and the Licensee.
(e) Payments. The receipt or acceptance by GM of any of the statements furnished or of any royalties or other payments paid (or the cashing of any royalty checks paid, regardless of any notation or statement thereon), pursuant to this Agreement, shall not preclude GM from questioning the correctness thereof at any time, and in the event that any inconsistencies or mistakes are discovered in such statements or payments, they shall immediately be rectified and the appropriate payment made by Licensee.
(f) Terms of Payment. Payment shall be made in U.S. Dollars directly to GM, or to such bank as GM may designate in writing to Licensee. Licensee shall be responsible for payment of all applicable federal, state and local; personal property, sales, use and value-added taxes relating to its right to copy, reproduce and distribute the Licensed Works in the Territory.
(g) Late Payments. In the event Licensee fails to make any payment when due under this Agreement, a late payment charge at the rate of one and one-half (1 1/2) percent per month, assessed upon the amount past due from the day such payment becomes past due, shall be due and payable to GM without further notice.
3. NON-EXCLUSIVITY
The license granted under this agreement is non-exclusive, and non-transferable. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent GM from granting any other license for the use of the Catalog Data or from utilizing the Catalog Data in any manner whatsoever. However, GM shall not unreasonably withhold consent of a written request by Licensee to assign this Agreement and the underlying license to a purchaser of all or substantially all of the assets or business of the division which is responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder.

Licensee agrees to keep accurate books of account and records covering all transactions relating to the marketing of the Licensed Works to GM Dealers, and GM and its duly authorized representatives shall have the right at all reasonable hours of the regular business day to an examination of said books of account and records, and shall have free and full access thereto for said purposes and for the purpose of making extracts therefrom. All books of account and records shall be kept available for at least seven (7) years after termination of this Agreement.
9. TERMINATION
(a) If Licensee files a petition in bankruptcy or is adjudicated a bankrupt or if a petition in bankruptcy is filed against Licensee and remains undismissed for sixty days or if it becomes insolvent, or makes an assignment for the benefit of all or substantially all of its creditors or an arrangement pursuant to any bankruptcy law, or if Licensee discontinues all or a significant portion of its GM Catalog Publication Systems business or if a receiver is appointed for it or its business, the license hereby granted shall automatically terminate without any notice being necessary. In the event the license is so terminated, Licensee, its receivers, representatives, trustees, agents, administrator, successors, or assigns shall have no right to sell, exploit or in any way deal with or in any Licensed Works.
(b) If Licensee shall violate or breach any of its payment obligations under the terms of this Agreement, GM shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and the license hereby granted upon thirty days notice in writing, and such notice of termination shall become effective unless Licensee shall remedy the violation or breach within the thirty-day period and satisfy GM that such violation has been remedied.
(c) If Licensee shall violate or breach any of its obligations under the terms of this Agreement, GM shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and the license hereby granted upon sixty days notice in writing, which termination will become effective unless Licensee shall remedy the violation or breach within the sixty-day period and satisfy GM that such violation has been remedied.
(d) Termination of the license under the provisions of this paragraph (9) shall be without prejudice to any rights which GM may otherwise have against Licensee. Upon such termination of the license, all royalties and other payments on sales made prior to termination shall become immediately due and payable, under the terms of Section 2 (f) of this agreement.
10. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION
Upon and after the expiration or termination of this Agreement, all rights granted to Licensee hereunder shall forthwith revert to GM, (except as otherwise provided herein), and Licensee will refrain from further use of Catalog Data in connection with the marketing of Licensed Works.

11. GMS REMEDIES
