           MASTER PURCHASE, LICENSE AND MAINTENANCE SERVICES AGREEMENT

                                     BETWEEN

                               JPMORGAN CHASE BANK

                                       AND

                                  EGENERA, INC.

This Master Purchase, License and Maintenance Services Agreement ("Agreement")
is made as of this 12th day of December, 2002 between JPMorgan Chase Bank a New
York State banking corporation ("JPMC") with its principal office located at 270
Park Avenue, New York, New York 10017, and Egenera, Inc. a Delaware corporation
("Egenera"), with its principal office located at 165 Forest Street, Marlboro,
Massachusetts 01752.

1.    SCOPE OF AGREEMENT

      This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions pursuant to which JPMC
      or a pre-qualified JPMC Affiliate may, from time-to-time order and
      purchase generally available computer hardware and related peripheral
      products manufactured by Egenera ("Egenera Hardware"), Egenera labeled
      software, in object code form, including (a) firmware and Egenera software
      embedded in the Egenera Hardware; and (b) third party software embedded in
      the Egenera Software and Egenera Hardware ("Egenera Software")
      collectively referred to as "Egenera Products" and hardware products
      manufactured and developed by third parties, ("Third Party Hardware"), and
      software provided by Egenera as itemized on an Egenera quotation and/or an
      Order that is specifically labeled as being owned by an entity other than
      Egenera which is not embedded in Egenera Hardware and/or Egenera Software
      ("Third Party Software") collectively referred to as "Third Party
      Products" generally offered for sale and license by Egenera as an
      authorized reseller (Egenera Products and Third Party Products are
      collectively referred to as "Products" unless differentiated). Open Source
      Software described in Section 19 is Third Party Software. Products are
      purchased and/or licensed pursuant to the pricing arrangement then in
      effect between the parties. The pricing arrangement currently in effect
      between the parties is reflected in Exhibit I attached hereto. JPMC may
      also purchase certain maintenance services, e.g. remedial maintenance,
      ("Maintenance Services") under this Agreement which are offered by Egenera
      in connection with the Egenera Products purchased or licensed hereunder.
      The standard Maintenance Services Egenera offers on Egenera Hardware and
      Egenera Software installed within the continental United States are more
      fully described in the Support Services Addendum attached hereto as
      Attachments A-1 through A-4. JPMC will issue written Purchase Orders or
      other ordering documents (collectively "Orders")

<PAGE>

      for the purchase and or license of Products and Services in accordance
      with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

      A JPMC affiliate that is pre-qualified (as defined below) by Egenera to
      purchase and or license Products under this Agreement as an end user
      ("JPMC Affiliate") shall be deemed to be a third party beneficiary of this
      Agreement A "JPMC Affiliate" is defined as any present or future
      corporation or other entity (a) of which 50% or more of the outstanding
      voting stock or voting equity interest is owned directly or indirectly by
      JPMC; (b) which owns 50% or more of the outstanding voting stock or other
      voting equity interest of JPMC ("Parent"); or (c) of which 50% or more of
      the outstanding voting stock or voting equity interest is owned directly
      or indirectly by the Parent. Whenever used in this Agreement the term
      "JPMC" shall be deemed to include JPMC Affiliates unless otherwise noted.
      A list of the JPMC Affiliates who have been pre-qualified is set forth in
      Exhibit V attached hereto. JPMC Affiliates must remain in good standing in
      accordance with Egenera's established commercial customer credit
      requirements. From time to time, JPMC may add other affiliates (to become
      JPMC Affiliates) to Exhibit V upon written notice to Egenera. However,
      such added affiliates must meet the criteria specified in (a), (b) and (c)
      above and Egenera's established commercial customer credit requirements. A
      JPMC Affiliate that satisfies the above criteria may place an Order
      directly with Egenera for Products and/or Maintenance Services. However,
      JPMC may from time-to-time order Products and Maintenance Services for and
      on behalf of a JPMC Affiliate. In such event, JPMC shall be deemed to do
      so as an agent of the JPMC Affiliate. The JPMC Affiliate for which JPMC so
      acts as agent (and not JPMC) shall be responsible for performance under
      such Order. The JPMC Affiliate acknowledges that it will fully comply with
      and be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement with respect to
      any Order issued by, or on behalf of the JPMC Affiliate. In no event shall
      JPMC be deemed to be a guarantor of, or otherwise responsible for, "any
      performance or payment obligation of a JPMC Affiliate udder any Order
      issued by a JPMC Affiliate or by JPMC for and on behalf of a JPMC
      Affiliate.

      For all Products to be delivered and installed at JPMC's facilities
      located at 3 or 4 Chase MetroTech Center, Brooklyn, New York 11245 ("Chase
      MetroTech Center") and for all Maintenance Services to be performed at
      Chase MetroTech Center, JPMC shall be deemed to have bordered such
      Products and Maintenance Services in its own name as agent for the New
      York City Industrial Development Agency ("IDA") for the sole purpose of
      qualifying for exemption from New York State and New York City sales and
      use taxes, as set forth in the letter between the IDA and JPMC a copy
      current as of the date of this Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit II.

      All Products to be delivered and installed at JPMC's Newport facility
      located at 570-575 Washington Blvd., Jersey City, New Jersey ("JPMC
      Newport Facility") and all Maintenance Services to be performed at the
      JPMC Newport Facility are exempt from New Jersey sales and use taxes as
      set forth in the Urban Enterprise Exempt Purchase Certificate (Form UZ-5)
      issued by the State of New Jersey Department of Taxation, a copy current
      as of the date of this Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit III.

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

      JPMC and Egenera acknowledge and agree that outside of the United States,
      Products and Maintenance Services can be ordered hereunder and may be
      furnished by Egenera's wholly owned subsidiary or by Egenera's authorized
      agents. Egenera will remain responsible for its wholly owned subsidiary's
      and authorized agents' performance under this Agreement. Egenera may
      require JPMC to place such Orders directly with a wholly owned subsidiary
      of Egenera. These international transactions will be subject to the terms
      and conditions of this Agreement except that (a) the terms and conditions
      specific to the particular country will apply, which will amend or
      supplement the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (any such country
      specific terms and conditions will be set forth in mutually acceptable
      amendments to this Agreement as appropriate executed by the parties); and
      (b) JPMC shall be able to obtain Maintenance Services described in
      Attachment A-1 through A-4 of the Support Service Addendum (i) in Tokyo,
      Japan and within one hundred-twenty(120) miles of London, England not
      later than January 1, 2003; and (ii) in Hong Kong, Singapore and Sydney,
      Australia not later than January 1, 2004. The components of Maintenance
      Services offered by Egenera in other countries will vary and thus, if
      requested by JPMC, will be negotiated and mutually agreed upon in writing
      by the authorized representatives of the parties on a case by case basis.
      From time to time, upon JPMC's request, Egenera shall provide JPMC with a
      current list of its wholly owned subsidiaries, authorized agents and
      service providers and their locations by country.

      By entering into this Agreement with Egenera, JPMC is not obligated in any
      way to purchase any quantity of Products or Maintenance Services or order
      any specific dollar volume of Products or Maintenance Services whatsoever.
      Moreover, nothing contained in this Agreement is to be construed as
      limiting the right of either party to enter into similar agreements with
      other parties for similar products and maintenance services.

2.    TERM OF AGREEMENT

      This Agreement shall commence as of the date first written above and shall
      remain in effect for an initial term of three (3) years unless terminated
      earlier in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
      This Agreement may be renewed subject to mutual written agreement between
      the parties. Such renewal may be subject to revised terms and conditions,
      which with respect to Maintenance Services, will not affect Maintenance
      Services already being furnished by Egenera, its agents or subcontractors
      as of the effective date of the renewal. If not renewed as aforesaid, this
      Agreement shall continue on a month to month basis until terminated by
      either party upon ninety (90) days prior written notice to the other
      party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Agreement
      shall remain in effect (a) for any open Order(s) as of the effective date
      of termination of this Agreement, and (b) with respect to Maintenance
      Services until the expiration or termination of the term of Maintenance
      Services.

      deemed to have been accepted by JPMC at the end of such [**] period.

      services for Egenera Products in accordance with the service offerings
      specified in the Support Services Addendum attached hereto as Attachments
      A-3 and A-4 pursuant to charges mutually agreed upon.

      All Third Party Products are subject to the third party's warranty
      provisions copies of which will be provided to JPMC by Egenera.
      Notwithstanding the warranties specified in this Section 14 for Third
      Party Hardware, Egenera will pass through to JPMC, as between JPMC and the
      third party, the benefit of any third party warranty provisions applicable
      to Third Party Products and such warranty provisions are hereby passed
      through by Egenera for the benefit of JPMC.

      Egenera currently provides support for Red Hat, Inc. Third Party Software
      that is licensed by Egenera. At JPMC's option, JPMC may engage Egenera for
      support of such Third Party Software licensed by Egenera to JPMC in
      accordance with terms, conditions and charges mutually agreed upon in
      writing by the authorized representatives of both parties.

      Any replacement Egenera Hardware or part provided by Egenera as part of
      its warranty service will be comparable in function and performance to the
      replaced original Egenera Hardware or part and is warranted for the
      remainder of the replaced original Egenera Hardware or part limited
      warranty period, or for ninety (90) days, whichever is greater. Whenever
      JPMC is responsible to install replacement Egenera Hardware or parts, JPMC
      will promptly return the replaced Egenera Hardware or part which will
      become the property of Egenera on an exchange basis. Egenera is
      responsible for the shipping and insurance charges associated with the
      replacement and replaced Egenera Hardware and parts shipped to and from
      JPMC as part of Egenera's limited warranty service.

      The limited warranties set forth in this Section 14 do not apply to
      problems to the extent that they arise from (i) accident or abuse; (ii)
      interoperation with third party products which are not recommended or
      approved by Egenera; (iii) improper installation or modification by other
      than Egenera, its agents or subcontractors; (iv) use of Egenera Products
      in an environment or in a manner or for a purpose for which the Egenera
      Products were not designed: or (v) JPMC's failure to implement all
      previously supplied software Updates.

      EGENERA DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE OPERATION OF THE PRODUCTS WILL BE
      UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS SECTION 14
      AND IN SECTION 15, EGENERA MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
      ABOUT THE EGENERA PRODUCTS, MAINTENANCE SERVICES OR OTHER EGENERA
      SERVICES. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS SECTION 14, EGENERA DOES NOT
      MAKE, AND DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS AND IMPLIED, WITH

                                      -8-
<PAGE>

      RESPECT TO THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS. EGENERA MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES WITH
      RESPECT TO EGENERA PRODUCTS, MAINTENANCE SERVICES OTHER EGENERA SERVICES
      OR THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED
      WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
      NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTY ARISING BY COURSE OF DEALING,
      PERFORMANCE, OR USAGE OF TRADE.

15.   CONTINUED SUPPORT SERVICES

      For the purpose of continued support services upon the expiration of the
      Egenera Product limited warranties. JPMC may order Maintenance Services
      offered by Egenera. The features and components of Maintenance Services
      currently available from Egenera are described in the Support Services
      Addendum. Software Upgrades and Maintenance Updates described in and
      provided under the Support Services Addendum are considered a component of
      such Maintenance Services. If the Egenera limited warranty on the Egenera
      Products has lapsed and post-warranty Maintenance Services for the Egenera
      Products have not been purchased. Egenera will only provide and charge for
      support services on a per-event, time and materials basis unless JPMC pays
      Egenera's published fee for recertification of Egenera Products for
      eligibility under Maintenance Services. JPMC is responsible for providing
      Egenera with remote access to Products it purchases from Egenera in order
      for Egenera to provide Maintenance Services. JPMC must provide an IP
      address, login and password for Egenera to establish access to such
      Products. Egenera will comply with all internal JPMC control practices and
      policies (including without limitation all security, network and data
      access and audit provisions) made known or known to Egenera, applicable to
      the Maintenance Services provided under this Agreement. Failure to provide
      an IP connection may impact response and resolution time. In the event
      JPMC has not provided Egenera with remote access, and as a result, an
      Egenera Support Engineer is required on site which otherwise would not be
      required, Egenera reserves the right invoice JPMC, and JPMC shall pay,
      Egenera's prevailing labor rate and related travel expenses for the
      on-site Maintenance Services. In order to resolve a problem, Egenera may
      require JPMC's reasonable assistance in recreating the problem. Failure by
      JPMC to attempt to recreate the problem, or to provide such reasonable
      assistance as may be necessary, may prevent Egenera from resolving the
      problem. Egenera provides Maintenance Services only for the two most
      recent Major Releases (as defined in the Support Services Addendum) of
      Egenera Software (i.e., current Major Release and the immediately prior
      Major Release) or for two (2) years on each such Major Release, whichever
      is longer. A Major Release is considered current until such time as a
      subsequent Major Release is generally available.

      Software Maintenance Services encompasses changes that are intended to
      resolve problems that prevent a system from performing to specifications.
      At Egenera's discretion, fixes may take the form of patches, Maintenance
      Updates as defined in the Support Services Addendum, Major Releases or
      Minor Releases as defined in the Support Services Addendum.

                                      -9-
<PAGE>

      Egenera's Standard Warranty Service for Egenera Software does not include
      Major Releases or Minor Releases which are provided under certain
      Maintenance Services. During the standard warranty period and in lieu
      thereof, JPMC may purchase the Software Subscription Service described in
      the Support Services Addendum in order to obtain when-and-if available
      Major Releases and Minor Releases at no additional charge.

16.   VIRUSES

      Egenera represents, warrants and covenants that the Egenera Software in
      the form provided to JPMC hereunder does not and will not contain any
      computer code, programs, or programming devices (a) intentionally designed
      to disrupt, modify, delete, damage, deactivate, disable, harm or otherwise
      impede in any material manner, including aesthetic disruptions or
      distortions, the operation of the Egenera Software or any other associated
      software, firmware, hardware, computer system or network (sometimes
      referred to as "Trojan horses," "viruses" or "worms"), (b) designed to
      disable the Egenera Software or any other associated software, firmware,
      hardware, computer system or network or impair in any way their operation
      based on the elapsing of a period of time, exceeding an authorized number
      of copies or advancement to a particular date or other numeral (sometimes
      referred to as "time bombs," "time locks," or "drop dead" devices), or (c)
      designed to permit Egenera to access the Egenera Software or any other
      associated software, firmware, hardware, computer system or network to
      cause such disablement or impairment (sometimes referred to as "traps",
      "access codes", or "trap door" devices), or any other similar harmful,
      malicious or hidden procedures, routines, or mechanisms that are designed
      to cause the Egenera Software or any other associated software, firmware,
      hardware, computer system or network to cease functioning or to damage or
      corrupt data, storage media, programs, equipment, or communications, or
      otherwise interfere with operations (collectively, "Destructive
      Elements"). Egenera further agrees to use reasonable commercial efforts to
      promptly eliminate any and all such Destructive Elements that are
      discovered.

      When installation of the Product is the responsibility of Egenera, Egenera
      shall ensure that all software furnished under this Agreement is tested
      using a virus-scanning program reasonably acceptable to JPMC. In the event
      that Egenera finds that the software is not virus free, Egenera shall
      replace the software with software that is virus free.

17.   INDEMNIFICATION

      Egenera hereby passes through to JPMC the benefits of any indemnification
      from the third party (e.g., patent; copyright, trade secret or other
      proprietary rights infringement indemnification) with respect to third
      party software embedded in the Egenera Software and Egenera Hardware and
      Third Party Products to the extent such indemnification may be passed
      through to JPMC.

      For the purpose of this Section 17 only, the term "Egenera Products" does
      not include third party software embedded in the Egenera Software or
      Egenera Hardware.

                                      -10-
<PAGE>

      With respect to Egenera Products, Egenera hereby agrees to indemnify,
      defend (with counsel satisfactory to JPMC) and hold JPMC harmless from and
      against any third party claim, suit, action or proceeding that the Egenera
      Products infringe any patent, copyright, trade secrets or other
      proprietary right, and pay all amounts agreed upon in settlement, costs,
      expenses (including attorney's fees) and the resulting judgments and
      damages finally awarded against JPMC by a court of competent jurisdiction.
      Any lost profits, lost business, indirect, special, punitive, incidental
      or consequential damages awarded against JPMC as a result of any such
      claim, suit, action or proceeding shall be deemed direct damages. In
      connection with Egenera's indemnification obligation pursuant to this
      paragraph, JPMC shall provide Egenera with (a) prompt notification in
      writing of such claim, (b) sole control over the defense and settlement
      thereof, and (c) reasonable cooperation, at Egenera's expense, in response
      to a Egenera request for assistance. JPMC shall be entitled to participate
      in the defense of any such claim at its own expense including its
      attorney's fees for which Egenera will not be responsible. In the event
      that JPMC is enjoined, or is otherwise prohibited, from using Egenera
      Products, as a result of or in connection with any such claim, suit,
      action or proceeding, or should Egenera Products become or in Egenera's
      opinion likely to become, the subject of such a claim, suit, action or
      proceeding, Egenera shall, at its option and expense, (a) modify Egenera
      Products so that they become noninfringing and nonviolative, without
      diminishing the usefulness of Egenera Products to JPMC; or (b) replace
      Egenera Products with products that are noninfringing and nonviolative,
      and that are at least as useful to JPMC as Egenera Products; (c) procure
      for JPMC the right to make continued use thereof; or (d) if neither (a),
      (b) or (c) can be accomplished on commercially reasonable terms, request
      the return of the Egenera Products at Egenera's expense and upon receipt,
      promptly refund to JPMC as appropriate, the license fee for Egenera
      Software less a reasonable amount for past usage, or a pro rata amount of
      the purchase price for the returned Egenera's Products, taking into
      account the useful life and depreciated value of the Egenera Hardware as
      determined by JPMC in accordance with its normal accounting practices
      (e.g., three (3), four (4) or five (5) years as applicable).

      Egenera shall have no liability to the extent the alleged infringement is
      based on: a combination of the Egenera Products with third party products
      not furnished by Egenera or not recommended or approved in writing by an
      authorized representative of Egenera, Egenera Products for a purpose or in
      a manner for which the Egenera Product was not designed; use of any older
      version of the Egenera Software when use of a newer Egenera revision made
      available and known to JPMC would have avoided the infringement; any
      modification to the Egenera Product not made by Egenera or made without
      Egenera's written approval; any unique custom Egenera software made by
      Egenera pursuant to JPMC's specific instruction, or any intellectual
      property right owned or licensed by JPMC.

      THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 17 WITH RESPECT TO EGENERA PRODUCTS STATE
      JPMC's SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND EGENERA'S ENTIRE LIABILITY FOR
      INFRINGEMENT CLAIMS.

                                      -11-
<PAGE>

      Each party hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the other ("Indemnified
      Party") harmless from and against any and all damages, losses, judgments,
      settlement amounts, costs and expenses (including attorney's fees) that
      the Indemnified Party may suffer or incur that arise out of, are in
      connection with, or result from bodily injury (including death), personal
      injury or damage to tangible property to the extent that such damage or
      injury are caused by, arise out of, are connected with or result from its
      acts, negligence or willful misconduct or that of its employees, agents,
      or subcontractors. In connection with each party's indemnification
      obligations pursuant to this paragraph, the Indemnified Party shall
      provide the other party with (a) prompt notification in writing of the
      claim, (b) sole control over the defense and settlement thereof, and (c)
      reasonable cooperation, at the other party expense, in response to the
      other party's request for assistance.

18.   LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

      Except for Egenera's indemnification obligation as set forth in Section 17
      with respect to those lost profits, lost business, indirect, special,
      punitive, incidental or consequential damages which, for the purpose of
      Section 17 only, the parties have agreed to be direct damages, neither
      party shall be liable, one to the other, for any damages resulting from
      loss of use, data, profit, or business or for any indirect, special,
      punitive, incidental or consequential damages arising out of, or in
      connection with this Agreement no matter what the cause of action, even in
      the event that either party is advised of the possibility that such
      damages may arise, occur or result.

      Except for each party's indemnification obligation as set forth in Section
      17, no action arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any
      transaction hereunder may be brought by either party more than eighteen
      (18) months after the cause of action has arisen.

      EXCEPT FOR EACH PARTY'S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION AS SET FORTH IN SECTION
      17 AND A BREACH BY EITHER PARTY OF ITS CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATION AS SET
      FORTH IN SECTION 22, AND SUBJECT TO SECTION 14, EACH PARTY'S AGGREGATE
      LIABILITY FOR DIRECT DAMAGES FOR ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER, AND REGARDLESS OF
      THE FORM OF ACTION (IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT), SHALL BE LIMITED, FOR EACH
      YEAR OF THIS AGREEMENT, TO PROVEN DIRECT DAMAGES IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO
      EXCEED THE PRICE JPMC PAID FOR THE PRODUCTS AND MAINTENANCE SERVICE DURING
      THE TWELVE MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT OR CIRCUMSTANCE
      THAT CAUSED THE DAMAGES OR WAS THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION.

      The limitation of liability set forth in this Section 18 shall apply to
      all causes of action under or relating to this Agreement, except as
      otherwise provided, including any claim against any subsidiary,
      stockholder, officer, director, employee, agent of either party, Egenera
      affiliates or JPMC Affiliates.

19.   SOFTWARE LICENSE

      Egenera Software and Third Party Software (collectively, "Software")
      provided under this Agreement is owned and copyrighted by Egenera or its
      third party suppliers, as the case may be, and title to, ownership of and
      all applicable rights and trade secrets in such Software shall not
      transfer to JPMC. In consideration of the applicable license fee. JPMC is
      hereby granted a non-exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide license
      to use Egenera Software only on the Egenera Hardware. JPMC's license is
      not a sale of any rights in Software. All ownership rights remain with
      Egenera or its third party suppliers, as the case may be.

      JPMC may make a reasonable number of copies of the Software for backup and
      archival purposes and JPMC may make additional copies when copying is an
      essential step in the authorized use of the associated Products. All
      copyright and other proprietary or restricted rights notices in the
      original must be retained on all copies.

      Except to the extent permitted in this Agreement, JPMC may not modify,
      translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, otherwise attempt to
      obtain the source code of, or create derivative works based on, the
      Software; copy (including copying onto a bulletin board or similar system)
      the Software; lease, time share, grant a security interest in, or
      otherwise transfer rights to the Software; remove any proprietary notices
      or labels on the Software; or disclose or otherwise make available the
      Software in any form to anyone other than JPMC's employees, consultants or
      independent contractors who have agreed in writing to the terms of this
      Software license. If JPMC is using the Software in any country in the
      European Community, the prohibition against modifying, translating,
      reverse engineering, decompiling, disassembling or creating derivative
      works based on the Software does not affect JPMC's rights under any
      legislation implementing the E.C. Council Directive on the Legal
      Protection of Computer Programs.

      Unless otherwise specified by the separate terms of a shrink or dick wrap
      software license that may accompany Third Party Software, JPMC may
      transfer the license to the Software upon sale or other disposition of the
      associated Egenera Hardware, and the Software may not be separated for use
      on other computers or equipment. Nothing herein shall prevent the transfer
      of the Software by JPMC to other Egenera Hardware (i.e., different serial
      number) provided it is no longer used on the previous Egenera Hardware. In
      the case of the sale or other disposition of the Egenera Hardware, JPMC
      must deliver the original and all complete, partial or electronically
      stored copies of the Software and related Documentation to the transferee.
      JPMC may not retain any copies of the Software or related Documentation,
      and any copies that have been made which are not transferred to the
      transferee must be destroyed. As a prerequisite to transferring the
      Software as aforesaid, JPMC must obtain the transferee's written agreement
      to all of the software license terms and conditions set forth in this
      Section 19, and at Egenera's request, provide a copy of same to Egenera.
      JPMC's license will automatically terminate upon any transfer of the
      Software. JPMC may receive the Software in more

                                      -13-
<PAGE>

      than one medium, for example CD-ROM or by Internet. JPMC may not use or
      install the Software in the other medium on another hardware product.

      In the event that JPMC at any time desires to change the Egenera operating
      environment (i.e., the Egenera Hardware platform and any other equipment,
      configurations, operating systems, control programs and other elements of
      the operating environment including an Internet or Internet oriented
      operating environment provided by Egenera on which JPMC uses the Egenera
      Software) to a revised Egenera operating environment or any component
      thereof, with, on or in which one or more copies of the Egenera Software
      will not function or execute, and Egenera has a commercially available
      version of the Egenera Software which is compatible with such revised
      Egenera operating environment or component thereof, JPMC shall have the
      right to use such compatible version to the same extent as the Egenera
      Software licensed hereunder, provided JPMC is either then in the Warranty
      Period for the Egenera Software or subscribing to Maintenance Services for
      the Egenera Software. In such case, JPMC shall so notify Egenera and
      Egenera shall promptly deliver, at no charge to JPMC, such version of the
      Egenera Software to JPMC, together with a copy of any associated
      Documentation that Egenera generally makes available to its customers.

      JPMC shall be fully responsible to Egenera for the compliance of JPMC's
      employees, consultants or independent contractors who are given access to
      the Software.

      In the event JPMC, in connection with the Egenera Products, orders Third
      Party Software, JPMC acknowledges that JPMC shall be licensing the Third
      Party Software directly from the third party owner thereof, including the
      right to use the Third Party Software in connection with the Egenera
      Products, and agrees to comply with the license terms that accompany the
      Third Party Software. Certain Third Party Software supplied by Egenera are
      Open Source Software products, and as such are governed by open-source
      software license agreements supplied with such Open Source Software; such
      as the GNU Public License. Egenera makes no claim of ownership of Open
      Source Software, and such Open Source Software products are supplied
      solely in accordance with the license agreements accompanying same.
      Accordingly, the restrictions concerning modification, confidentiality and
      other provisions set forth in this Section 19 do not apply to Open Source
      Software.

20.   TERMINATION FOR BREACH, BANKRUPTCY AND OTHER REASONS.

      In the event that JPMC or Egenera: (a) breaches a material provision of
      this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days after
      it notifies the other thereof; (b) becomes insolvent; (c) files a petition
      in bankruptcy or has such a petition filed against it (and fails to lift
      any stay imposed thereby within sixty (60) days after such stay becomes
      effective); (d) has a receiver appointed with respect to all or
      substantially all of its assets; (e) makes an assignment for the benefit
      of creditors or (f) ceases to do business in the ordinary course, the
      other party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice
      thereof. Any termination of this Agreement shall not affect JPMC's license
      to use the Egenera Software.

                                      -14-
<PAGE>

      The Egenera Software maintained pursuant to the Support Services Addendum
      is unique and requires highly specialized skills and/or tools to maintain.
      Egenera acknowledges that the skills and/or tools needed to maintain the
      Egenera Software may not be available from any source other than Egenera.
      Egenera also acknowledges that the remedies at law for Egenera's breach of
      its obligations to provide Maintenance Services as set forth in this
      Agreement may not be adequate and that JPMC, as a result of such
      inadequacy, may suffer irreparable harm in the event Egenera breaches the
      Maintenance Services provisions of this Agreement. Therefore, Egenera and
      JPMC agree that JPMC shall have the right to seek mandatory or affirmative
      injunctive relief to maintain the status quo in the event of an actual or
      threatened breach of the Maintenance Services provisions of this
      Agreement.

21.   FORCE MAJEURE

      Neither party shall be held responsible or in any manner liable, for
      damages or otherwise, nor shall it be deemed in breach of this Agreement
      or any Order, for delays in performing or inability to perform, this
      Agreement or any Order caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable
      control, including, without limitation, fire, flood, explosion, storm, act
      of God or governmental act. To qualify for excused performance under the
      foregoing sentence, such party must promptly notify the other party of
      such delay.

22.   CONFIDENTIALITY

      Each party, as a recipient of the other's Confidential Information as
      hereinafter defined ("Recipient") acknowledges and agrees that a duty is
      owed the other, as a discloser of its Confidential Information
      ("Discloser") to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information
      provided by the Discloser, obtained by the Recipient or which became known
      to Recipient in connection with this Agreement. The Recipient shall treat
      such Confidential Information as strictly confidential, and shall not use,
      disclose, duplicate, copy, transmit or otherwise disseminate or permit to
      be used, disclosed, duplicated, copied, transmitted or otherwise
      disseminated at any time prior to or after the termination of this
      Agreement such Confidential Information, except as specially permitted in
      this Agreement or in writing by the Discloser, whether Recipient has such
      Confidential Information in its memory or it is embodied in writing or
      other physical form. The term "Confidential Information" shall include:

      (a)   any information of the Discloser not generally known to the public,
            including, without limitation, any trade secrets or proprietary
            information concerning the Discloser, the financial content of this
            Agreement, its sales, personnel or accounting procedures, accounts,
            operations, devices, techniques, methods, business plans, software,
            (regardless of its state of completion or form of recordation),
            databases, models, product proposals, internally devised technology,
            system or network architecture or topology, secret processes,
            products, capacities, systems, security practices, development,
            machines, inventions, research projects and other means used by the
            Discloser in the

                                      -15-
<PAGE>

            provision of services to customers and in the conduct of business,

Course Description

The Egenera BladeFrame System Administration course is designed to provide
students with the core skills needed to perform basic BladeFrame system
administrative tasks. These tasks include:

      Administration of Processing Area Networks (PANs)

      The design and provisioning of Logical Processing Area Networks (LPANs)

      Configuration of LPAN resources as pServers and vNets

      Configuration of applications and services hosted by LPANs for high
availability and load balancing.

The course is conducted over a 2 day period with the time divided between
