In consideration of the promises contained in this Agreement, BRIO agrees to
perform certain services subject to the terms and conditions set forth below and
in the Statement of Work attached as an exhibit and incorporated into this
Agreement by reference.

1.    Statement of Work.  The services which BRIO is to provide under this
Agreement are outlined in the Statement of Work (Exhibit A-1 et. seq.).
                                                              -------
Persons performing the services hereunder will observe any specified Customer
facility rules and regulations.

2.    Fees. The compensation to be paid BRIO pursuant to this Agreement shall be
in consideration for all services rendered. BRIO will be paid as specified in
the software agreement.

3.    Term. The term of this Agreement will begin on the Effective Date and
continue until terminated. Either party may terminate a Statement of Work under
this Agreement or the Agreement itself with or without cause at any time by
giving the other party 30 days' written notice of termination.

Upon the termination of a Statement of Work or of this Agreement for any or for
no reason, neither party will be liable to the other because of such termination
for damages on account of the loss of prospective profits, good will, or on
account of expenditures, leases or commitments in connection with the business
of Customer or of BRIO, or for any other reason whatsoever flowing from such
expiration or termination.

The following obligations will survive termination of this Agreement for any
reason: (a) obligations relating to nonuse and nondisclosure of confidential
information; (b) provisions relating to ownership and nonsolicitation; and (c)
obligations to make payments of amounts that are due under this Agreement.

4.    Ownership. Customer shall have an unlimited non-exclusive license, in
perpetuity, to use the work defined in Exhibit A for Customer under this
Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, however, shall be deemed to limit BRIO's
ability to develop and market functionally comparable products or work
deliverables based on the same general concepts, techniques and routines.
Nothing in this Agreement, shall be construed to convey to Customer any rights
of ownership in and to BRIO's software products, training materials, or
consulting methods. All right, title, and interest therein shall at all times
remain the property of BRIO or of BRIO's licensor.

5.    Nondisclosure. BRIO agrees that any specifications, information or data
furnished to BRIO under this Agreement will remain Customer's property and, if
labeled "confidential" or "proprietary," BRIO agrees to treat such materials as
confidential information, both during and after the term of this Agreement. As a
result of this Agreement, BRIO may also provide Customer with similar
confidential information. For convenience, such nonpublic information will be
referred to as "Confidential Information."

Each party agrees that it will not use or duplicate any Confidential Information
provided hereunder unless such use or duplication is necessary to implement this
Agreement. Each party it will use all reasonable efforts to ensure against
disclosure or distribution of any Confidential Information to any third party,
except as specifically authorized by the owner in writing.

Confidential Information shall not include information which (a) is or becomes
publicly available through no act or omission of the receiving party; (b) was in
the receiving party's lawful possession prior to the disclosure and had not been
obtained either directly or indirectly from that party; (c) is lawfully
disclosed to the receiving party by a third party without restriction on
disclosure; (d) is furnished by the owning party to a third party without
restrictions on disclosure; or (e) is independently developed by the receiving
party.

6.    Independent Contractor.  Both parties agree that BRIO is an independent
contractor and, as such, neither BRIO not its personnel shall be considered
employee(s) of Customer. As a consequence, Customer is neither liable nor
responsible for withholding or deducting any sums for federal or state income
taxes, social security, health, workers compensation, and disability insurance
coverage, pension or retirement plan, or the like.

7.    Nonsolicitation. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of one
year thereafter, Customer agrees that it will not solicit for hire, on behalf of
Customer or any other organization, any employee of BRIO, unless Customer has
first obtained BRIO's written consent.

8.    Reference.  BRIO may use Customer's company name as a reference.

9.  Warranty and Disclaimer of Warranties.  BRIO warrants that its services will
be of a professional quality conforming to generally accepted industry standards
and practices.

THE WARRANTY AND CONDITION INDICATED ABOVE IS EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

10.   Limitation of Liability.  NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF ANTICIPATED
REVENUE OR LOSS RESULTING FROM BUSINESS DISRUPTION), OR DAMAGE TO SYSTEMS, DATA,
OR PROGRAMS, RELATED TO, RESULTING FROM, OR ARISING AS A RESULT OF ITS
OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. In no case will BRIO's liability to Customer exceed
the amounts paid by Customer to BRIO hereunder.

11.   Taxes.  Customer agrees to pay any and all federal, state, or local sales,
use, or property taxes, but excluding income taxes, that may become due in
connection with the services rendered by BRIO, unless Customer certifies an
exemption. Customer shall have the right to contest the amount or validity of
any imposition of taxes by appropriate legal proceedings; however, upon the
termination of such proceedings, Customer shall pay the contested items and any
interest or penalties in the event they are held valid.

12.   Insurance.  BRIO is responsible for maintaining insurance to protect
itself from the following: (a) claims and/or workers compensation or state
disability acts; (b) claims for damages because of bodily injury, sickness, or
death of any of its employees or any other person which arise out of any
negligent act or omission of BRIO, its employees or agents, if any; and (c)
claims for damages because of injury to or destruction of tangible property,
including loss of use resulting therefrom, which arise from any negligent act or
omission of BRIO, its employees or agents, if any.

13.   Equal Employment Opportunity.  BRIO agrees that it does not and will not
discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race,
color, religion, age, sex, disability, national origin, or sexual orientation.

14.   Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be construed according to the
substantive laws of California, USA, excluding provisions relating to conflicts
of law.

15.   Changes.  If Customer wishes BRIO to perform additional items, or to make
changes to the Statement of Work attached hereto, Customer will notify BRIO in
writing. BRIO shall, upon Customer's written request, provide an estimate of the
cost and schedule impact of performing changing or delivering the Statement of
Work, which estimate will be provided within a mutually agreed time frame. BRIO
will take no further action with respect to any addition or change to the
Statement of Work until BRIO receives written authorization from Customer and
the parties execute an appropriate amendment to the relevant Statement of Work.
Brio shall be under no obligation to carry out such work, at its sole
discretion.  If Customer fails to meet any Customer Responsibilities as defined
in the Statement of Work, and such failure affects BRIO's costs or schedule or
precludes further work by BRIO on the Project until the Customer
Responsibilities are met, then BRIO will notify Customer in writing and
thereafter, BRIO and Customer will promptly cooperate to make an appropriate
written amendment to the Statement of Work.
