Software developed under this Agreement in the twelve (12) calendar months
beginning with the calendar month immediately following written acceptance
by Datawatch of the “RELEASE TO MANFACTURING”(RTM) build of the Software.
The Commission rate shall be calculated as follows:
4.1.1 A Commission of 10% shall be paid on Net License Revenue up to
and including one million five hundred thousand dollars
($1,500,000).
4.1.2 A Commission of five percent (5%) shall be paid to VDI on Net
License Revenue in excess of one million five hundred thousand

reduced by one month for each month from the end of such 60 day period
until acceptance.
4.6 Datawatch shall assign a “primary point of contact” for technical questions
related to the Services as defined in the SOW. As a necessary function to
provide the Services, VDI must present technical questions related to the
SOW to this point of contact. Datawatch understands and agrees that
excessive non-responsiveness to these questions can have a significant
impact on VDI’s ability to meet the timetable set forth in the SOW. VDI
shall clearly warn Datawatch in advance in writing if excessive
non-responsiveness will cause such changes. VDI shall also designate a
“primary point of contact” for issues related to this Agreement and the

claim within twenty-one (21) days after Datawatch’s discovery or notification of
same, (b) all information in Datawatch’s control regarding the claim, (c)

negotiations pertaining to the claim. VDI shall have the right, at its expense,
either to procure the right for the Datawatch to continue to use the software,
or to replace or modify it so it becomes non-infringing. If neither of the
foregoing alternatives is available on terms that VDI, in its sole discretion,
deems commercially reasonable, Datawatch shall, upon written request of VDI,
return the infringing software in its possession, in which event VDI shall
refund to Datawatch the price paid by Datawatch for such software.

SCHEDULE C
Black Box Testing
Software testing technique whereby the internal workings of the item being
tested are not known by the tester. Testing focuses on the functional aspects of
the software product. In a black box tests on a software product the tester only
knows the inputs and what the expected outcomes should be and not how the
program arrives at those outputs. The tester does not ever examine the
programming code and does not need any further knowledge of the program other
than its specifications. Black box testing is performed by developing a testing
script, or test plan, that lists EXACT test procedure and an expected result.
Only items on the test script are covered and any behavior outside the expected
result is noted. Items, scenarios, configurations or behaviors not covered in
the test script or plans will, by definition, not be tested.
White Box Testing
A software testing technique whereby explicit knowledge of the internal workings
of the item being tested are used to select the test data. Unlike black box
testing, white box testing uses specific knowledge of programming code to
examine outputs. The test is accurate only if the tester knows what the program
is supposed to do and has access and understanding of the source code and
supporting design documentation. With this understanding, the tester can then
see if the program diverges from its intended goal. White box testing does not
account for errors caused by omission. White box testing is characterized by
“free testing” – pushing the product in areas not intended by the original
design specifications, but areas where a “reasonable user” might attempt to
direct the product.
