Bandwidth,  and the number of Burstware Servers that the Burstware Conductor can
manage.

     "Burstware  Player(TM)"  means  the  computer  program  included  among the

either party with, into or by any other  corporation or corporations,  or a sale
of all or  substantially  all of the  assets  of such  party,  resulting  in the
stockholders of such party  immediately  prior to such transaction  holding less
than a majority of the  outstanding  voting  equity  securities of the surviving
corporation  in such  merger,  consolidation,  acquisition  or  sale  of  assets
reorganization (other than a bona fide equity financing resulting in proceeds to
such party's capital accounts).

     "Program Error" means a program defect or "bug" sufficiently  material that
it results in a version of the Licensed Software, in the form delivered by Burst
to  Eagle,  at  the  time  it  is  delivered  by  Burst  to  Eagle,  failing  to
substantially  conform to the Documentation for that version. A respect in which
the Licensed Software fails to substantially  conform to the Documentation shall

computer  system already in its possession or on a computer  system  supplied to
Burst by Eagle.

     "Trademarks"  means the  trademarks  listed in Exhibit  B, which  Burst may
amend at any time upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to Eagle.

shall be a version 2.0 and all  subsequent  future  releases  during the license
period of Burst's general release software.


2.   GRANT OF LICENSE

     2.1 Terms and  Conditions.  On the terms and conditions of this  Agreement,
and upon  payment  of all  applicable  license  fees,  Burst  grants  to Eagle a
non-exclusive  (except  as set forth in  Section  2.3  below),  non-transferable
license to: (a) install and use Burstware in machine-readable,  object code form
only in the  configuration  and to the scope  identified  in and  enabled by the
Burstware  License Key(s) provided by Burst; and (b) to deploy Eagle's Burstware
License across multiple servers and locations.

     2.2 Effective  Date. The term of the license will commence upon the earlier
of (i) Eagle's first commercial  deployment of the Burstware  software,  or (ii)
January 1, 2002.

     2.3 Exclusive Period. For a period of two (2) years from the effective date
of this Agreement, Eagle will be granted a license that provides for exclusivity
in the  field-of-use:  for fiber and  wireless to the home market for  broadband
services to gated residential communities, including multi-dwelling units (i.e.,
apartment complexes);  and hospitality venues (i.e., hotel and motel complexes).
Except as expressly stated in this section, the license and rights granted under
this  Agreement  are  non-exclusive,  and  nothing  in this  Agreement  shall be
construed  as granting to Eagle any  exclusive  rights with respect to any other
field of use.

     2.4 Exclusivity  Carve-Out.  All existing  customers with licenses covering
the field-of-use identified in paragraph 2.3 are grandfathered. Any parties with
whom Burst is  currently


                                       3
<PAGE>

in negotiations for purposes of licensing, merger, acquisition, or an asset sale
as of January 31,  2001 are also  grandfathered  and covered by the  language of
this exemption.

     2.5 Extension of Exclusive Period. Eagle shall be entitled at its option to
extend the  Exclusive  Period for an  additional  twelve (12) months on the same
terms and conditions,  provided Eagle purchases at least an additional  $200,000
of client licenses during the initial 24-month term.

     2.6  Licensed  Territory.   The  United  States  and  its  territories  and
possessions.

     2.7 License Fees. The initial  Burstware  license term of 12 months will be
extended to 24 months.  In  consideration  of the extended  license term granted
herein,  Eagle will prepay to Burst a non-refundable and non-creditable  license
fee of $250,000.

     2.8 Form of Payment.  The  initial  license fee will be paid in the form of
130,000  shares of "free  trading"  common  stock of  Clearworks.net,  Inc.,  an
American Stock Exchange company with ticker symbol "CLW." Said common stock will
convert to 104,600  shares of freely  tradable  Eagle stock on January 31, 2001,
the closing date of the acquisition of Clearworks by Eagle.  Said stock transfer
and  merger  transaction  are  defined  more  fully in the  Securities  Purchase
Agreement  dated  January  30,  2001 and  attached  as Exhibit  A. 1.7  Payment.
Software  fees under the  initial  license  term shall be due and payable on the
date of the signing of this  Agreement in Clearworks  common stock and converted
into Eagle common stock as described  in Exhibit A.  Additional  client  license
fees shall be paid in cash due within  thirty (30) days  following the date upon
which the key is delivered.

     2.10 Annual  Renewal.  Upon  expiration of the initial  24-month  term, the
license will be renewable annually for a fee equal to 30% of the initial cost of
the client licenses being renewed.

     2.11 Waiver of Annual Renewal. In the event of a Burst merger or asset sale
prior to the end of Eagle's 144 holding  period or the effective  date of an S-1
registration of Burst common stock (stock received in exchange for an investment
in Burst,  see,  attached  Exhibit A),  Eagle's Burst shares will be, at Eagle's
option,  liquidated  for a value  equal  to the  value  received  by  owners  of
freely-tradable  Burst common stock. If the liquidation  value of Burst stock is
less than $0.50,  Eagle's  Burst  license  will be extended an  additional  (12)
months at no additional cost to Eagle.

     2.12  Renewal of License Upon  Acquisition  of  Burst.Com.  If Burst or its
assets  are  acquired  during  the  term of  Eagle's  software  license,  and if
Burstware technology is subsequently embodied in a new software package marketed
by the acquiring  company,  Eagle will be accorded a license to the new software
under terms substantially  similar to the terms of the initial Burstware license
at no additional cost to Eagle.

     2.13  Documentation.  Burst grants to Eagle a non-exclusive  license to use
the Documentation in connection with Eagle's use of the Licensed Software.

     2.14 Limitation on Use. Eagle  understands and acknowledges that use of the
Licensed  Software is controlled by the Burstware License Key. Eagle may not use
the Licensed  Software  beyond the scope  enabled by the  Burstware  License Key
provided  by Burst to Eagle upon  payment of the  applicable  license  fee.  The
Licensed Software functions as three separate programs, the Burstware Conductor,
Burstware Server, and Burstware Player, that operates  cooperatively.  Eagle may
install  and use only the  number  of  copies  of the  Burstware  Conductor  and
Burstware  Server  software  specifically  enabled by the Burstware  License Key
provided to Eagle by Burst.  Eagle may install an unlimited  number of copies of
the Burstware Player software for use by Eagle,  provided Eagle does not receive
any direct payment for doing so, but may  simultaneously  use only the number of
copies of the Burstware Player specifically enabled by the Burstware License Key
provided to Eagle by Burst.  Eagle may not modify or alter the Licensed Software
or  Burstware  License  Key to  increase  the  scope of its use of the  Licensed
Software.  Further,  Eagle may not use any device,  process or computer  program
that  increases,  directly  or  indirectly,  the  scope  of use of the  Licensed
Software  enabled by the  Burstware  License Key provided to Eagle by Burst.  If
Eagle wishes to increase the scope of its licensed use of the Licensed Software,
Eagle must purchase an additional Burstware License Key from Burst.

     2.15  Back-Up  Copies.  Eagle  may make one copy of the  Licensed  Software
solely  for the  back-up  or  archival  purposes,  provided  that such copy must
contain all proprietary notices affixed to or appearing in the original copy.

     2.16 Sun Microsystems  Java(TM) Runtime Environment  Provisions.  Eagle may
not modify the Java Platform  Interface ("JPI",  identified as classes contained
with the "java" package or any sub packages of the "java" package),  by creating
additional  classes  within the JPI or  otherwise  causing  the  addition  to or
modification  of the  classes in the JPI.  In the event that Eagle  creates  any
Java-related API and distributes such API to others for application development,
Eagle must promptly publish broadly, an accurate  specification for such API for
free use by all developers of Java-based software.

     2.17  Hazardous  Environments.  The  Licensed  Software is not  designed or
intended for use in online control equipment in environments requiring fail-safe
performance, such as the operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft communication
or control systems or life support systems, in which software failure could lead
to personal injury or severe property or  environmental  damage.  Eagle warrants
that it will not use or allow the use of the Licensed Software for such purposes

     2.18  Notification of Errors. In the event that Eagle discovers any errors,
bugs or other irregularity in the Licensed Software, Eagle shall promptly notify
Burst of each  such  error,  bug or  irregularity.  For the one (1) year  period
following  the Effective  Date,  Burst will provide Eagle with all bug fixes and
error corrections that may be developed by Burst for the Licensed Software.

3.   PRICING and TAXES

     3.1 Pricing. The prices payable by Eagle to Burst on a per client basis for
the initial  software license will be an amount equal to $25.00 per client up to

enhancements,  corrections  and  modifications  to the  Licensed  Software,  all
copyrights, patents, trade secrets, or trademarks or other intellectual property
rights  protecting or pertaining to any aspect of the Licensed  Software (or any
enhancements, corrections or modifications) and the Documentation, are and shall
remain the sole and exclusive  property of Burst and, where applicable,  Burst's
suppliers.  This  Agreement  does not convey title or  ownership  to Eagle,  but
instead gives Eagle only the limited rights set forth in Sections 1 and 2. Burst
reserves all rights not expressly granted by this Agreement.

     4.2 Joint  Ownership.  Subject to negotiation  and reasonable  business and
legal  consideration,  Burst and Eagle agree to jointly file patent applications

Licensed Software.

     4.3 Software  Development  or  Customization.  Burst agrees to use its best
efforts to accommodate all Eagle requests for custom  enhancements to Burstware,
provided  that Eagle  shall be  responsible  for all costs  incurred by Burst in
making the modifications.  Such work is to be billed at Burst's actual cost plus
30%.

     4.4 Restrictions.  Except as expressly authorized in this Agreement,  Eagle
may not: (i) use, make,  sublicense,  rent, lease, sell, display,  distribute or
copy originals or copies of the Licensed  Software,  or to permit anyone else to
do so; (ii) modify,  create  derivative works of, reverse  engineer,  unencrypt,
decompile,  disassemble  or otherwise  translate the Licensed  Software or allow
anyone  else to do so  (except  and only to the  extent  that such  activity  is
expressly  permitted by applicable law notwithstanding  this limitation);  (iii)
remove any patent, copyright or trademark or other intellectual property notices
that may appear on any part of the Licensed Software or the  documentation;  and

<PAGE>

Upon any such  transfer or  assignment,  Eagle must  transfer  all copies of the
Licensed  Software and  assignee  must agree in writing to all the terms of this
Agreement.

     4.5  Transfer.  Neither  party may assign or transfer its rights under this
Agreement  or its rights to the  Licensed  Software  without  the prior  written
consent of the other party.  Upon any such transfer or assignment on the part of
Eagle, Eagle must transfer all copies of the Licensed Software and Documentation
and assignee must agree in writing to all the terms of this Agreement.  Upon any
such transfer or assignment on the part of Burst, the Transferee shall honor all
the terms of this  Agreement.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  each  party may
transfer its rights under this Agreement  without the consent of the other party
in connection with a Sale or change of control of such party;  provided however,
that the acquiring party shall be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

     4.6 Proprietary  Notices.  Eagle shall not remove any patent,  copyright or
trademark or other intellectual  property notices that may appear on any part of
the Licensed Software or the Documentation.

compliance with this Agreement, as Burst deems reasonable.

     4.9 Notice to Employees and Agents. Eagle will use commercially  reasonable
efforts to inform its employees,  agents and others using the Licensed  Software
under this Agreement that it may not be used, copied or transferred in violation
of this Agreement.

     4.10 Irreparable Harm. Eagle  acknowledges that money damages may not be an
adequate  remedy for any breach or  violation  of any  requirement  set forth in
Section 4 of this  Agreement  and that any such  breach or  violation  may leave
Burst  without an  adequate  remedy at law.  Eagle  therefore  agrees  that,  in
addition  to any other  remedies  available  at law,  in  equity  or under  this
Agreement,  Burst  shall  be  entitled  to  obtain  temporary,  preliminary  and
permanent   injunctive   relief,   without  bond,  from  a  court  of  competent
jurisdiction to restrain any such breach or violation.

because of any accident, abuse or misapplication;  and (b) Eagle notifying Burst

construed in accordance  with the laws of the State of California and the United
States without reference to conflicts of laws principles.  Eagle consents to the
exclusive  jurisdiction  and  venue  of the  federal  and  state  courts  in San

and  shall  not on behalf of the other  enter  into any  contract,  warranty  or

together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
