Definitions. a. Terms Defined in License Agreement. The following terms have that meaning assigned to them pursuant to the Software License Agreement executed by the parties in conjunction with this Agreement (the "License Agreement"): "Application;" "Cure;" "Error;" "Material;" "Specifications;" "Software;" and "User Materials." rUll �tiOlT SOETW'ARf: MAINTGNAN(1 AI;Rl:LM1;NT Page c, �iq.+f Tm+ple Ciry, CA b, "Enhancement " means a modification or addition that, when made or added to the Software, materially changes its utility, efficiency, functional capability, or application, but that does not constitute solely an Error Correction, and does not constitute a New Product Release. Licensor may designate Enhancements as "Major Enhancements" or simply as "Enhancements," depending on Licensor's assessment of their value and of the function added to the Software or Application. "Major Enhancement" may be a substantial rewrite of an Application, similar to a New Product Release, or may be additional functionality benefiting only certain licensees rather than all licensees as a whole, and requiring those Enhancements to be packaged as a separate module. c. `?emporary Fix" means an initial correction or "fix" to a problem in the Software prior to the release of an Error Correction. d. "Error Correction" means either a modification or addition that, when made or added to the Software, brings the Software into Material conformity with its published specifications, or a procedure or routine that, when observed in the regular operation of the Software, avoids the practical adverse effect of such nonconformity. e. "New Product Release'° means either the total rewrite of an Application or new version(s) of the Software (including, without limitation, offering of an Application in a new language), the offering of new suites of Applications or databases, generally packaged as a separate module, and which may incorporate Error Corrections and/or Enhancements. A New Product Release shall be distinguished from an Enhancement by Licensor's determination, based on Licensor's assessment of the New Product's value and of the function added to the Software or an Application. f. "Upgrade" has substantially the same meaning as "Enhancement." 1:11V7iKi1T" SPI TWARI: Faye 7 MAINTI:NANI:I: AI;RI.:IiML.NT c:lry <,FTm�plr t arty, c"A N WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties hereto has caused this Agreement to be executed in duplicate by its duly authorized officer or representative.
