ACCEPTANCE

6.1

Deliverables Testing
Both parties will agree in writing to an acceptance test plan pursuant to which Telecom will perform User Acceptance Tests prior to commencement of any User Acceptance Tests.

6.3

User acceptance tests
Beginning upon the dates of the Delivery for Testing, Telecom will have thirty (30) days (Test Period) to perform the User Acceptance Tests on the Deliverable unless specified otherwise in the relevant SOW.

6.7

Remedy for acceptance failure
If any Deliverable was not delivered to Telecom in a form that was capable of passing its User Acceptance Tests (as subsequently determined, if necessary, in accordance with this Agreement) by its third Delivery for Testing, then Telecom may (without prejudice to any other remedy available to it) do any one or more of the following by providing notice in writing to Supplier within one month of the date of the third Delivery for Testing:

(a)

accept all or part of the Deliverable subject to a reduction in the Charges as reasonably agreed to by the parties;

(b)

deem the failure to be a breach of the SOW concerned; and/or

Except as otherwise provided in the relevant SOW, Supplier grants Telecom and its Affiliates a perpetual, non-exclusive non-transferable right to use, copy and modify each

Supplier Owned Deliverable (but expressly excluding any Software) solely for its internal business purposes.

8

TELECOM OWNED DELIVERABLES

8.1

Ownership (except for Supplier Pre-Existing IP)
All Intellectual Property right, title or interest which may subsist in any Telecom Owned Deliverable (other than any Supplier Pre-Existing IP in that Deliverable) will vest absolutely and exclusively in Telecom on its creation in material form and without the need for any further act by Telecom except as required by law.

8.2

Use of Supplier Pre-Existing IP
Ownership of any Supplier Pre-Existing IP in a Telecom Owned Deliverable remains with Supplier, but Supplier grants Telecom a non-exclusive, non-transferable perpetual and royalty free licence to all Intellectual Property Rights in that Supplier Pre-Existing IP in a Telecom Owned Deliverable, but expressly excluding any Software, but only to the extent necessary to enable Telecom to use, copy, modify, sublicense and distribute Telecom Owned Deliverables.

8.3

Moral rights

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INDEMNITY

9.1

Indemnity
Supplier will indemnify and hold Telecom harmless against all actions, proceedings, losses, liabilities, damages, claims, demands, costs, (including reasonable legal expenses) suffered or incurred by Telecom arising out of or in connection with any third party claims alleging that a Deliverable infringes or misappropriates a U.S. or New Zealand patent, copyright, or trade secret (each, a "Claim"), and will pay all final judgements awarded or settlements agreed to by Supplier on such Claims. Supplier will not be liable under this clause 9.1 to the extent the Claim arises out of or is related to (i) a modification of a Deliverable which is not recommended, approved or provided by or on behalf of Supplier or its authorized agent, (ii) a combination of the Deliverable with any third party software or equipment not specified or recommended under this Supply Agreement (including the Statements of Work) or for which Telecom reasonably should have known the Deliverable should not have been combined, where such combination is the cause of such infringement, (iii) the use of a version of a Deliverable other than the then-current version which has been provided to Telecom if the infringement would have been avoided by use of the then-current version; (iv) use or exploitation of a Deliverable which Telecom reasonably should have known would exceed the rights and benefits provided by Supplier under this Supply Agreement; (v) or the incorporation into a Deliverable of any feature or information provided by Telecom.

9.2

Procedure
In the event of any Claim, Telecom will:

(a): promptly notify Supplier in writing of the Claim and must not make any admission or purport to settle any Claim without Supplier's prior written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed);
(b): at Supplier's request and expense, grant Supplier sole control of the defence, negotiation of settlement, and litigation resulting from the Claim, provided that Telecom will be entitled to be represented at Telecom's sole cost, and be consulted on, all such negotiations and litigation; and

(c): at the request of Supplier, provide reasonable assistance with such defence, negotiation of settlement or litigation, and Supplier must reimburse Telecom for its reasonable staff costs and out of pocket expenses of so doing.

9.3

Remedies
If any Claim prevents or threatens to prevent the supply or use of any Deliverable, then Supplier must (at its own election and expense) either:

(a): obtain the right to continue providing the relevant Deliverable to Telecom or the right for Telecom to use or continue to use the relevant Deliverable;
(b): modify the relevant Deliverable so that it becomes non-infringing;
(c): replace the relevant Deliverable with another non-infringing item.
(d): If none of (a), (b) or (c) is commercially reasonable, terminate the license for the infringing Deliverable (if any) and refund the Charges paid for that infringing Deliverable.

Supplier must ensure that any action under (a)—(c) above does not materially affect the performance of the Deliverable or Telecom's use of it. This Section 9 states Supplier's entire liability and Telecom's sole and exclusive remedy for any Intellectual Property infringement.

10

Certificate of insurance

Insurance by Telecom

Supplier will provide Telecom with all information Telecom may reasonably request to check the time spent, the rate charged for time and material work and the overall computation of such charges. Telecom will not be required to make payment of Charges for which Supplier is unable to provide appropriate timesheets, third party invoices and any other reasonable supporting documentation.

AGREEMENT

27.1

Telecom will be solely responsible for all acts and omissions of Telecom's Affiliates, and any acts or omissions by a Telecom Affiliate, which if committed by Telecom would be a breach of the Supply Agreement, will be deemed to be committed by Telecom and Supplier must avail itself or any and all rights and remedies directly against Telecom.
28: PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

29: POLICIES AND CO-OPERATION
29.1: Policies
Supplier will comply with all Telecom's information management and retention policies and practices, technical architecture and product standards and other policies, practices and standards in force from time to time, provided that Telecom provides Supplier with copies of such policies a reasonable time in advance. If Telecom changes such policies after the Effective Date and such changes materially impact Supplier in terms of cost or ability to perform under any Statement of Work in effect under a Supply Agreement, then the parties will negotiate in good faith to revise at least the payment and Contract Milestones contained in the affected Statement of Work to the extent that they are impacted to take into account the effect of the new policies, practices or standards.
29.2: Co-operation
Telecom may, from time to time, require other suppliers to provide it with products and/or services in relation to the Supply Agreement. Supplier agrees that it will reasonably co-operate with such other suppliers (at no additional cost) as reasonably requested by Telecom provided that Telecom binds such other providers to confidentiality obligations at least as protective of Supplier and its Confidential Information as the terms and conditions contained herein.
30: PAYMENT
30.1: Charges
Supplier will ensure that all Charges are calculated and applied as set out in the Supply Agreement.

30.2

Invoicing
Supplier will ensure that each invoice issued by it is:

(a)

(b)

fully itemised and includes all information reasonably required (including purchase order reference) in order to enable Telecom to establish the accuracy of the invoice, including:

30.4

Disputed invoices
If Telecom has a genuine good faith dispute in relation to all or any portion of an invoice submitted by Supplier, Telecom may withhold payment of the amount subject to the dispute. If reasonably necessary, either party may refer the disputed payment to the disputes process set out in clause 32 (Dispute Resolution) for resolution. Telecom will pay the undisputed amount when it becomes due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Supply Agreement and Supplier will continue to perform its obligations under the Supply Agreement while the dispute is being resolved.

30.5

Australian entities

30.6

Taxes
All amounts set out in the Supply Agreement shall be exclusive of GST and Telecom shall be responsible for paying all applicable GST where Supplier provides Telecom with a valid tax invoice for the same. Amounts payable are inclusive of all other government taxes, value added taxes, withholding taxes, duties, imposts and levies of a similar nature (Applicable Taxes), however designated, assessed or levied on Supplier in relation to the Agreement (including penalties thereon). Amounts payable by Telecom are inclusive of all withholding taxes. Where Telecom is required by law to make payment to Supplier subject to the deduction of withholding taxes, the payment shall be made subject to such deduction or withholding. Payment by Telecom to the

Supplier of the net amount shall be a complete and final discharge by Telecom of its obligation to make the relevant payment. If any amounts paid by Telecom to Supplier are subsequently assessed by the relevant taxation or other authority to be subject to any Applicable Taxes, Telecom may in its discretion either:

(a): withhold an amount equal to such tax assessed so as to set off such amount against any future payments to be made by Telecom; or

(a): examine records, documents or other relevant information relating to the Charges under a Supply Agreement; and

(b): ask for and receive explanations in respect to such matters from Supplier or such Subcontractors in respect of Charges under the Supply Agreement,

In the event that Telecom reasonably requires further records, documents or other relevant information relating to a Supply Agreement in order to satisfy itself that Supplier's obligations under the Supply Agreement and any contractual terms, regulations, statutory provisions and the like affecting Telecom and relating to the Supply Agreement are being complied with, Supplier agrees to promptly provide such information to Telecom subject to Telecom providing a reasonable explanation as to why such information is required.

(a): Telecom may at any time on notice to Supplier assign all or any part of the Supply Agreement to any Telecom Affiliate or any third party providing services to Telecom, provided that the assignee undertakes to Supplier to fully perform and be bound by the Supply Agreement and, in Telecom's reasonable opinion, the assignee is not a competitor of Supplier and is able to pay any Charges as they become due and payable; or
(b): with the prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (which, in the case of the assignee being a competitor of either party, may be withheld by that party until reasonable mechanisms to that party's reasonable satisfaction have been agreed and put in place to protect that party's commercially sensitive or valuable Intellectual Property and pricing information);

37.2

Subcontracting by Supplier
Supplier may not subcontract any part of a Supply Agreement (except for minor details, purchases of materials, and any Service for which the Subcontractor is named in the Supply Agreement or that is obvious on its face) without Telecom's prior written consent. Upon termination of a Supply Agreement, Telecom may deal with any Subcontractor directly in relation to the subject matter of the Supply Agreement. If reasonably requested by Telecom, Supplier will ensure that its Subcontractors enter into an agreement which enables Telecom to take over the benefit and obligations of Supplier under the respective Subcontractor agreement in the event of termination of the Supply Agreement. Supplier will be responsible and liable for all acts and omissions of any Subcontractor. The entry by Supplier into a subcontract will not:

(a): create a contractual relationship between Telecom and the Subcontractor; and

(b): relieve Supplier from liability for the performance of any obligations under the Supply Agreement.

38

WARRANTIES

Supplier represents and warrants that:

(a): the performance of its obligations under the Supply Agreement will not conflict with any obligation or duty owed to any third party; and
(b): all information provided or to be provided to Telecom by Supplier under any Supplier Agreement is, at the time of disclosure and to the best of Supplier's knowledge, accurate, complete and true.

The express warranties in this Section 14 (and any applicable Supply Agreement or SOW) are exclusive and in lieu of all other warranties, whether express, implied, or statutory, including, without limitation, any implied warranties concerning the Deliverables or Services and warranties of merchantability, title, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement, which Supplier expressly disclaims to the fullest extent permissible by law.
