Accordingly, the parties agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

a. Software . “ Software ” shall mean the software in object code form specified in Exhibit A to this Agreement or any subsequent order form executed by both parties pursuant to this Agreement that substantially contains the information set forth in Exhibit A (each an “Order Form”).

b. License Grant . Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Guidewire hereby grants Licensee a, nonexclusive, nonsublicensable, nontransferable, license to use the Software, solely for Licensee’s internal use in the United States during the term set forth in the applicable Order From and subject to any additional terms set forth therein (which shall take precedence and control over any conflicting terms of this Section).

c. Restrictions . Licensee shall not (and shall not allow any end user or third party to) (i) decompile, disassemble, or otherwise reverse engineer the Software or attempt to discover any source code or underlying ideas or algorithms of the Software, (ii) remove any product identification, copyright or other notices embedded within the Software, (iii) modify or create a derivative work of the Software (except as otherwise expressly authorized by Guidewire in writing), (iv) remove or export any Software from the United States in violation of applicable laws or regulations, (v) relicense, provide, lease or lend the Software to any third party, or use the Software for timesharing or service bureau purposes, (vi) copy the Software or any portion thereof except as provided herein, or (vii) disclose any performance information or analysis (including, without limitation, benchmarks) from any source relating to the Software.

d. Ownership . As between the parties, Guidewire shall retain all rights, title and interest in and to the Software including all modifications, derivative works or improvements, and all related intellectual property rights. Customer shall retain all rights, title and interest in and to Customer’s claim, policy and other data.

e. Embedded Software . Licensee acknowledges that third party software may be embedded or otherwise delivered with the Software. Licensee may only use such third party software as integrated with and part of the Software. The licensors of the third party software are intended beneficiaries of this Agreement, as it pertains to Licensee’s rights to use such software.

f. Intellectual Property Rights. Guidewire represents and warrants to Licensee that it has the unencumbered right to grant the license granted herein and that there is no claim relating to the Software based on actual or alleged violation of the intellectual property rights of any other person pending or threatened against Guidewire.

a. Fees . Licensee shall pay Guidewire all license fees (“License Fees”), support and maintenance fees (“Support Fees”) and other fees as set forth in the applicable Order Form. Unless, otherwise set forth in the applicable Order Form, Licensee shall pay all invoices in full within thirty (30) days of the date of receipt of the invoice.

b. Late Fees . Licensee will pay a late fee of one percent (1%) per month or the highest rate allowed under the law, whichever is lower, on any overdue amounts.

c. Review . During the term of this Agreement and for one (1) year thereafter, Licensee grants Guidewire the right, at Guidewire expense and no more than once per year, after providing to Licensee not less than ten (10) days prior written notice, to examine Licensee’s records and other information relating to the Licensee’s use of the Software, provided that such examination is conducted in a manner that is not disruptive to Licensee’s business. If this examination reveals that Licensee has not paid any fees due, then License agrees to promptly pay such fees. If the underpaid fees exceed five percent (5%) of the fees actually paid for the applicable period, then Licensee shall also pay Guidewire’s reasonable costs of conducting the examination. Additionally, at Guidewire’s written request, not more frequently than annually, Licensee shall furnish Guidewire with a signed certificate verifying that Licensee is using the Software within the terms of this Agreement.

3. Maintenance and Support . In consideration for Licensee’s payment of the Support Fees specified in the applicable Order Form, if any, Guidewire will provide support and maintenance services for the Software as specified in Exhibit B attached hereto (“Support Services”). Professional services relating to implementation of the Software are not provided as part of Support Services and will be governed (if at all) by a separate Consulting Services Agreement between the parties.

4. Confidentiality.

a. Confidential Information . The parties agree that (i) the Software, Documentation, pricing, discounts and other terms offered to Licensee, including, without limitation, the material terms of this Agreement, any functional limitations of, or errors in, the Software, are the confidential property of Guidewire, and (ii) any other confidential business, technical, financial or other information disclosed by one party to the other pursuant to this Agreement is the confidential information of the disclosing party (collectively, “Confidential Information”). Except as expressly allowed in Section 4(b) or elsewhere herein, each party shall hold in confidence and shall not use or disclose to any third party any Confidential Information of the other party. The restrictions of this Section shall apply for the greater of (i) the term of this Agreement and for two years thereafter, (ii) the time period dictated by any applicable law, statute or regulation, or (iii) for any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret, as long as such Confidential Information remains a trade secret under applicable law.

5. Warranty; Disclaimer . Guidewire warrants that for a period of nine months from Licensee’s first acquisition of Software that such Software will materially conform to Guidewire’s user documentation delivered to Customer under this Agreement (“Documentation”). This warranty only covers reproducible errors reported to Guidewire in writing during the warranty period. Licensee’s exclusive remedy for breach of this warranty shall be prompt correction or replacement of the Software affected or, if Guidewire is unable to do so, then to cancel the license for the defective Software and receive a refund of the License Fees paid for the defective Software. GUIDEWIRE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE IS ERROR FREE. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH ABOVE, GUIDEWIRE DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE, SUPPORT SERVICES OR OTHERWISE REGARDING THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY AND WITH THE EXCEPTION OF GUIDEWIRE’S EXPRESS INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, GUIDEWIRE’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO LICENSEE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND RELATING TO (A) DEFECTIVE SUPPORT SERVICES, SHALL NOT EXCEED THE FEES PAID BY LICENSEE DURING THE THEN-CURRENT ANNUAL SUPPORT SERVICES TERM; OR (B) THE SOFTWARE OR OTHERWISE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF LICENSE FEES PAID TO GUIDEWIRE WITH RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

c. Effect of Termination . Upon any termination hereof, (i) all rights and licenses granted to Licensee shall immediately terminate and Licensee shall immediately cease use of and return or destroy all copies of the Software, and (ii) any rights to payment, any right of action for breach of the Agreement prior to termination, and the following provisions shall survive: Sections 1(c), 1(d), 2, 4, 5, 6, 7(c), 8 and 9.

a. Guidewire shall defend or settle at its expense any claim or suit (an “ Action ”) against Licensee, arising out of or in connection with an assertion that the Software or the use thereof as specifically authorized by Guidewire, infringes any U.S. patent in existence as of the Effective Date, U.S. copyright or trademark rights or misappropriates a trade secret of any third party; provided that Guidewire shall have no obligation under this Section to the extent any claim of infringement or misappropriation results solely from (i) use of the Software in combination with any other hardware or software supplied by any third person or entity other than Guidewire Dependant Products covered in Exhibit B, Section 7.; (ii) any alteration or modification of the Software not provided or authorized by Guidewire; or (iii) use of the Software in a way not intended by Guidewire or not provided for or described in the applicable Documentation, if such infringement would not have occurred but for such combination, alteration, modification or unintended or unauthorized use of the Software (collectively the “ Indemnification Exceptions ”).

b. Licensee shall defend or settle at its expense any Action against Guidewire, and each of its directors, officers, agents, employees and sublicensees to the fullest extent permitted by law, arising out of or in connection with or related to any of the foregoing Indemnification Exceptions.

c. As an express condition to the foregoing indemnity obligations, the party seeking indemnity shall (i) promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of any such actual or threatened loss, suit, claim, liability, expense or proceeding, (ii) allow the indemnifying party, at its own expense, to direct the defense of such suit, claim or proceeding, (iii) give the indemnifying party all information and assistance reasonably necessary to defend such suit, claim or proceeding, and (iv) not enter into any settlement of any such suit, claim or proceeding without the indemnifying party’s written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

d. Should Software become, or in Guidewire’s opinion be likely to become, the subject of a claim for which Guidewire is required to indemnify pursuant to this Section, Guidewire may, at its discretion, (i) obtain for Licensee, at no additional cost to Licensee, the right to continue using the Software under this Agreement; (ii) modify or replace the Software or part of the Software in a manner so that such modified or replacement software provides the same or better functionality as the Software, at no additional cost to Licensee, to avoid such claim, or (iii) if Guidewire determines that neither (i) or (ii) is commercially feasible, terminate the license to the applicable Software and refund the License Fees paid for the Software, prorated over a five (5) year term from the Effective Date. THIS SECTION 8 STATES GUIDEWIRE’S ENTIRE LIABILITY AND LICENSEE’S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY CLAIMED, POTENTIAL OR ACTUAL INFRINGEMENT.

a. Governing Law . This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflicts of law provisions. In any action to enforce this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to costs and attorneys’ fees from the non-prevailing party. Unless waived by Guidewire in a particular instance, the parties hereby submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of, and agree that any legal proceeding with respect to or arising under this Agreement shall be brought in, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California or the state courts of the State of California.

b. Assignment . Neither this Agreement nor any rights, licenses or obligations hereunder, may be assigned by Licensee, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Guidewire, provided that Licensee’s parent corporation and any corporate affiliates controlled by such parent shall have the right to use the Software in the United States, subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement; and provided further, that such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. It shall be deemed unreasonable for Guidewire to withhold consent where a requested assignment does not increase the use of the Software (e.g., a transaction which does not result in combining Licensee’s insurance operations with additional insurance operations). Licensee shall be responsible for any breach of this agreement by such parties. Guidewire may assign this Agreement in whole or in part. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Agreement shall be void and without effect. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will benefit and bind the parties’ successors and assigns.

c. Escrow . Upon Licensee’s written request, Guidewire shall place the source code for the Software into escrow with EscrowTech International, Inc. for the benefit of Licensee, subject to Licensee’s execution of (and the terms and conditions of) Guidewire’s standard form of Software Escrow Agreement with EscrowTech and subject to Licensee’s payment of all applicable escrow fees.

d. Intentionally left blank .

e. Relationship of the Parties . The parties hereto expressly understand and agree that each party is an independent contractor in the performance of each and every part of this Agreement, is solely responsible for all of its employees and agents and its labor costs and expenses arising in connection therewith. Neither party nor its agents or employees are the representatives of the other party for any purpose and neither party has the power or authority as agent, employee or any other capacity to represent, act for, bind or otherwise create or assume any obligation on behalf of the other party for any purpose whatsoever.

f. Entire Agreement . This Agreement, including the exhibits hereto, contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters contained herein and supersedes all prior agreements or discussions between the parties with respect to the matters contained herein.

g. Severability . The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions shall continue with the same effect as if such unenforceable or invalid provision had not been included in this Agreement.

h. Modification and Waiver . Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any provision of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any provision of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or any particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written consent of the party against whom such modification or waiver will be enforced. No terms contained in a Licensee purchase order or similar document will be binding on Guidewire unless both parties execute the same as an addendum to this Agreement.

i. Force Majeure . Neither party shall be liable to the other for any delay or failure to perform any obligation under this Agreement if the delay or failure is due to unforeseen events, which occur after the signing of this Agreement and which are beyond the reasonable control of the parties including but not limited to strikes, blockade, war, revolutions or riots, natural disasters, refusal of license by the government or other governmental agencies or other stipulations or restrictions by the authorities, insofar as such an event prevents or delays the affected party from fulfilling its obligations and such party is not able to prevent or remove the force majeure at reasonable costs.

j. Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in two counterparts, each of which shall be an original, and which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

4

k. Notices . Any notice required or permitted to be given by either party under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered or sent by nationally recognized overnight commercial courier service (e.g., FedEx) to the other party at its address set forth herein, or such new address as may from time to time be supplied hereunder by the parties.

a. Use of Logos . Licensee grants Guidewire a limited, non-exclusive right to place Licensee’s trademarks and logos on Guidewire’s web site and marketing materials solely for the purpose of identifying Licensee as a customer of the Software.

b. Press releases . Licensee grants Guidewire the right to issue at least two press releases regarding the parties’ relationship: the first when Licensee is signed as a customer, and the second when Licensee is operational on the Software. Licensee and Guidewire must mutually agree upon the language in the press release. Both press releases shall have quotes from the CIO/VP of IT and SVP/VP of Claims of Licensee.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the Effective Date.
