SEVERITY LEVEL 3 - LIMITED FUNCTION. The Error is not critical, but is an
annoying defect that can circumvented or avoided on a
temporary basis.
SEVERITY LEVEL 4 - CIRCUMVENTED PROBLEM. The Error is a minor problem and
can be easily circumvented by the End-User.
Licensor shall commence commercially reasonable efforts to correct such
Errors within the time periods set forth below:
Severity Level 1 - Next business day.

VAR shall be invoiced at Licensor's then-current rates plus fifty percent (50%)
of such rate. Payment of all such invoices shall be subject to the payment terms
set forth in Section 7.2.
3.3 From time to time during the Term, Licensor, in its sole and absolute
discretion, may modify the Licensed Technology in response to a written request
by VAR. In consideration thereof, VAR shall pay to Licensor the invoiced charges
for such modification, in accordance with the terms agreed upon for such
modifications. All such modifications shall remain the exclusive property of
Licensor and such modifications will be deemed additional Licensed Technology
for the purposes of this Agreement. Upon delivery to VAR, the License granted to
VAR pursuant to Section 2 above shall be deemed to include such modifications.
3.4 Licensor agrees that during the term of this Agreement, Licensor will
not directly or indirectly, either for itself or any other person or entity,
solicit any individual who is engaged as an employee, agent or independent
contractor by VAR to terminate his or her employment with VAR and/or to become
an employee, agent or independent contractor of Licensor or such other person or
entity.

by Licensor of VAR's notice to Licensor of such unauthorized use, VAR shall have
the right, at VAR's expense, to commence an action against the infringer in
VAR's name and in Licensor's name and Licensor shall cooperate with VAR, at
VAR's expense, in connection therewith. VAR shall not enter into any settlements
of any such actions commenced by VAR with respect to the Licensed Technology
without Licensor's prior written consent, which consent shall not be

Agreement, acquiring from Licensor the right to create or utilize derivative
works of the Licensed Technology or Documentation except as provided in Section
2.1 of this Agreement.
5.3 VAR and Licensor shall protect and maintain the confidentiality of
all Confidential Information (as defined below) received from the other party
(the "RECIPIENT"). The Recipient shall take all necessary and proper actions to
preserve the secrecy and prevent disclosure of such Confidential Information to
persons other than its employees, subcontractors, agents or advisors who need to

of Licensor or VAR, as the case may be, except as reasonably necessary to
perform and exercise its rights and obligations under this Agreement. Without
limiting the foregoing, the Recipient shall not disclose any Confidential
Information of Licensor or VAR, as the case may be, to any person or entity that
has not agreed in writing to keep such information confidential. For the
purposes of this Agreement, "CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION" means all information
relating Licensor's or VAR's, as the case may be, Intellectual Property Rights,
business or operations disclosed or made available to the Recipient, its

-9-
<Page>
7.6 Licensor may change the License Fees, in whole or in part, at any
time after the initial Term of this Agreement upon not less than ninety (90)
days prior written notice to VAR, but only if Licensor generally applies such
changes to its other VARs, subject to any binding commitment that Licensor has
made to VAR and any outstanding binding written quotations to potential
End-Users, copies of which have been provided to Licensor, reasonably made by
VAR in reasonable reliance upon the License Fees then in effect and which
quotations terminate within one (1) month of the effective date of such change
in License Fees unless definitive documents have been signed between VAR and the
End-User, or such potential End-User has made a binding written commitment;
provided, however, that with respect to any quotations approved in writing by
Licensor, such change in the License Fees shall not be applicable.
7.7 VAR shall maintain, at its executive offices (wherever located) for
the duration of this Agreement and for two (2) years thereafter, books of
account concerning sales of the VDPs and the Licensed Technology and such other
records as may be made by VAR with respect to the use and implementation of the
VDPs and Licensed Technology. Licensor or its agent may, at Licensor's sole
expense, examine (i) said books and records for the purpose of verifying the
accuracy thereof and (ii) VAR's use and implementation of the Licensed
Technology, during VAR's normal business hours and upon reasonable written
notice, but no more than twice annually; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that if such audit
reveals any underpayment of greater than five percent (5%) or any use of the
Licensed Technology in violation of this Agreement, in addition to any other
remedies that may be available to Licensor, VAR shall pay to Licensor (i) all
such amounts plus all interest in such amounts pursuant to Section 7.2 and (ii)
all costs of such audit. Such books relating to any particular statement of
License Fees may be examined as aforesaid only within two years after the date
rendered. Licensor shall notify VAR in writing within 90 days after such
examination if Licensor believes that VAR's books are not accurate. Licensor and
its agents shall keep all information obtained in such examination confidential
and use such information solely for the purpose of this Section.
7.8 All amounts payable by VAR under this Agreement are exclusive of any
tax, levy or similar governmental charge that may be assessed by any
jurisdiction, whether based on gross revenue, the delivery, possession or use of
VAR's products, the execution or performance of this Agreement or otherwise,
except for net income, net worth or franchise taxes assessed on VAR outside of
the Territory. If, under the laws of the Territory, VAR is required to withhold
any taxes on such payments, then the amount of the payment will be automatically
increased to totally offset such tax, so that the amount actually remitted to
Licensor, net of all taxes, equals the amount invoiced or otherwise due. VAR
will promptly furnish Licensor with the official receipt of payment of these
taxes to the appropriate taxing authority. VAR will pay all other taxes, levies
or similar governmental charges or provide Licensor with a certificate of
exemption acceptable to the taxing authority.

obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms; and the making of this
Agreement does not violate any agreement, right or obligation existing between
it and any other person, firm or corporation, on the other hand.
8.2 VAR represents, warrants and covenants to Licensor that the VDPs do
not and will not infringe the Intellectual Property Rights and other proprietary
rights of any third party. VAR further represents, warrants and covenants to
Licensor that the VDPs and the Licensed Technology will be manufactured in

VAR's sole recourse shall be to either (i) terminate this Agreement and obtain a
full refund of the License Fees actually paid or (ii) follow the procedures set
forth in Section 3.2.
8.5 Each party shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the other (and
the other's officers, directors, and affiliated companies) from and against all
liabilities, damages, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees)
payable or paid by the indemnified party to a third party as a result of a
breach or alleged breach by the indemnifying party of its representation and
warranty contained in Section 8.2 or Section 8.3, as the case may be, of this
Agreement. The party asserting any claim to indemnification under this
Section 8.5 shall promptly notify the other party of any such claim or
proceeding and shall not settle any such claim or proceeding without the
indemnifying party's prior written consent which shall not be unreasonably
withheld. The indemnified party shall have the right at its expense to
participate in the defense thereof with counsel of its choice, provided that the
indemnifying party shall have the right at all times to retain or resume control
of the conduct of such defense.

8.6 Licensor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless VAR (and VAR's
officers, directors, and affiliated companies, but not End-Users) from and
against all liabilities, damages, costs or expenses (including reasonable
attorney's fees) payable or paid by VAR to third parties resulting from any
final judicial decision without opportunity for appeal arising from claims by
such third parties that any use of the Licensed Technology or Documentation by
VAR in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement infringes any United
States copyright, trademark, or trade secret of such third parties. VAR shall
promptly notify Licensor of any such claim or proceeding and shall not settle
any such claim or proceeding without the Licensor's prior written consent. VAR
shall have the right at its expense to participate in the defense thereof with
counsel of its choice, provided that Licensor shall have the right at all times
to retain or resume control of the conduct of such defense. If an injunction is
obtained against the use by VAR or its End-Users of any Licensed Technology or
Documentation, Licensor will, at its option and expense, either (i) procure for
VAR and its End-Users the right under such copyright or trademark to license or
use as appropriate, the Licensed Technology or Documentation; (ii) replace the
Licensed Technology or Documentation with other suitable, functionally-
equivalent and non-infringing products; (iii) modify the Licensed Technology or
Documentation so as to make it non-infringing without substantially reducing its
utility; provided, however, that if Licensor deems the foregoing remedies not
commercially reasonable, Licensor will refund a pro-rated portion (based on a 12
month period from the Effective Date) of the License Fees paid by VAR for the
allegedly infringing materials. In any event, the foregoing obligation of
Licensor does not apply with respect to Licensed Technology or Documentation (i)
made in whole or in part in accordance to VAR's or such End-User's
specifications, (ii) modified after shipment by Licensor, if the alleged
infringement relates to such modification, (iii) which are combined with other
products, processes or materials where the alleged infringement relates to such
combination, (iv) to the extent that VAR or such End-User continues allegedly
infringing activity after being notified thereof or after being informed of
modifications that would have avoided the alleged infringement, or (v) where
VAR's or such End-User's use of the Licensed Technology or Documentation is
incident to an infringement not resulting primarily from the Licensed Technology
or Documentation is not strictly in accordance with the License granted herein.
8.7 VAR shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Licensor (and
Licensor's officers, directors, and affiliated companies) from and against all
liabilities, damages, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees)
payable or paid by the Licensor to a third party (i) as a result of any claim
that the VDP and/or related materials infringe on, resulted or may result in any
deprivation or violation of, the Intellectual Property Rights, constitutional,
statutory, contractual, common law or other rights of any person, (ii) as a
result of any breach of applicable law by VAR or any End-User or (iii) as result
of any claim based on one or more of the occurrences excluded from Licensor's

persons.
11.6 This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York without reference to the conflict of law
principles thereof.
11.7 Any judicial proceeding brought with respect to this Agreement must
be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New York and, by
execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party (i) accepts, generally and
unconditionally, the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and any related
appellate court, and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered
thereby in connection with this Agreement, (ii) irrevocably waives any objection
it may now or hereafter have as to the venue of any such suit, action or

warranty unless the same is specifically set forth or incorporated by reference
herein.
11.12 The parties hereto are sophisticated and have had the opportunity to
be represented by lawyers throughout the negotiation of this Agreement. As a
consequence, the parties do not believe that the presumptions of any laws or
rules relating to the interpretation of contracts against the drafter of any
particular clause should be applied in this case and therefore waive their
effects.
11.13 VAR acknowledges that the copying, disclosure, or use of any or any
portion of Licensor's confidential information or the Licensed Technology, in a
manner inconsistent with any provision of this Agreement may cause irreparable
injury for which there may be no adequate remedy at law. Licensor shall be

be deemed an original Agreement for all purposes and which collectively shall
constitute one and the same Agreement. A facsimile copy of any such executed
counterpart shall be deemed an executed original.

SOFTWARE SUBLICENSE TERMS
IMAGEWARE SYSTEMS END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT
*IMPORTANT*
CAREFULLY READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT. IT
CONTAINS SOFTWARE, THE USE OF WHICH IS LICENSED BY IMAGEWARE SYSTEMS, INC., TO
ITS CUSTOMERS FOR THEIR USE ONLY AS SET FORTH BELOW. THIS IS A LEGAL AGREEMENT
BETWEEN YOU AND IMAGEWARE SYSTEMS, INC. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS AND
CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, DO NOT USE THE SOFTWARE. USING ANY PART OF THE
SOFTWARE INDICATES THAT YOU ACCEPT THESE TERMS.
1. GRANT OF LICENSE. ImageWare Systems, Inc. ("ImageWare") grants you a
nonexclusive, nontransferable, license to install and execute the accompanying
software program(s) (the "SOFTWARE") subject to the terms and restrictions set
forth in this License Agreement ("License"). If ImageWare is delivering the
SOFTWARE to you electronically via the internet, you are also entitled to
download the SOFTWARE to a single computer for use in accordance with this
Agreement. This License permits you to use one copy of the specified version of
the SOFTWARE on any single computer, provided the SOFTWARE is in use on only one
computer at any time. If you have multiple Licenses for the SOFTWARE, then at
any time you may have as many copies of the SOFTWARE in use as you have
Licenses. The SOFTWARE is "in use" on a computer when it is loaded into the
temporary memory (i.e., RAM) or installed into the permanent memory (e.g., hard
disk, CD-ROM or other storage device) of that computer, except that a copy
installed on a network server for the sole purpose of distribution to other
computers is not "in use". If the anticipated number of users of the SOFTWARE
will exceed the number of applicable Licenses, then you must have a reasonable
mechanism or process in place to assure that the number of persons using the
SOFTWARE concurrently does not exceed the number of Licenses. If the SOFTWARE,
or any component thereof, you have licensed is license on a limited concurrent
user model as evidenced by the quote or purchase order related to such license,
then only the number of concurrent users for which you have paid shall be
entitled to access and execute the SOFTWARE or relevant component thereof
throughout the user community to which you and ImageWare have agreed upon in
writing. You must use the ImageWare provided process in place to assure that the
number of concurrent users of the SOFTWARE does not exceed the number for which
you have paid.
2. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. The SOFTWARE and the Intellectual Property
Rights related thereto are owned solely and exclusively by ImageWare or its
suppliers. "Intellectual Property Rights" collectively means any and all right,
title and interest in or to any and all patents, patent registrations, patent
applications, business processes, copyrights, data rights, trademarks, trade
names, service marks, service names, trade secrets, know how or other similar
right arising or enforceable under any U.S. law, the law of any other
jurisdiction, or any international treaty regime. This license confers no title
or ownership in the SOFTWARE and confers no rights whatsoever in any associated
source code or other intellectual property of ImageWare. Except for the limited
license set forth in Section 1, this License does not grant you any rights to
patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks, or any other rights in respect
to the SOFTWARE, and all such rights are reserved by ImageWare or its suppliers.
Therefore, you must treat the SOFTWARE like any other copyrighted material
(e.g., a book or musical recording) except that you may either (a) make one copy
of the SOFTWARE solely for backup or archival purposes, or (b) transfer the
SOFTWARE to a single hard disk provided you keep the original solely for backup
or archival purposes. You must reproduce and include all copyright notices and
any other proprietary rights notices appearing on the SOFTWARE on any copies
that you make. You may not copy the written materials accompanying the SOFTWARE.
3. EXPORT RESTRICTIONS AND COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW. You agree that you
will not export or re-export the SOFTWARE or accompanying documentation (or any
copies thereof) or any products utilizing the SOFTWARE or such documentation in
violation of any applicable laws or regulations of the United States or the
country in which you obtained them. You also agree to comply with all other
applicable laws and regulations governing the use of the SOFTWARE.
4. OTHER RESTRICTIONS. This ImageWare License Agreement is your proof of
license to exercise the rights granted herein and must be retained by you. You
may not (i) modify, reproduce, copy, alter, improve or create derivative works
from the SOFTWARE, (ii) sublicense, rent, lease, distribute, loan, export other
otherwise transfer or provide access to the SOFTWARE to any third party, (iii)
reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise attempt to derive the
source code of the SOFTWARE, or (iv) use the SOFTWARE to develop a product that
is similar to the SOFTWARE or to operate a service bureau of any kind.
-20-
<Page>
5. CONFIDENTIALITY. You acknowledge and agree that the structure, source code,
sequence and organization of the SOFTWARE are the valuable trade secrets and
confidential information of ImageWare and its suppliers. You agree to protect
such confidential information and trade secrets and prohibit the unauthorized
duplication, use or disclosure of such confidential information and trade
secrets. You also acknowledge and agree that the vector templates and full
templates generated by the SOFTWARE ("Templates") shall be treated with the same
care as other confidential information.
6. LIMITED WARRANTY. ImageWare warrants that the SOFTWARE will perform
substantially in accordance with the accompanying written materials for a period
of forty-five (45) days after the date of receipt. Some states do not allow
limitations on duration of an implied warranty, so the above limitation may not
apply to you.
7. CUSTOMER REMEDIES. ImageWare's entire liability and your exclusive remedy
shall be, at ImageWare's option, either (a) return of the price paid or (b)
repair or replacement of the SOFTWARE that does not conform to the limited
warranty set forth in Section 6 and that is returned to ImageWare with a copy of
your receipt. This Limited Warranty is void if failure of the SOFTWARE or
hardware has resulted from accident, abuse, or misapplication, or if a warranty
claim is received by ImageWare after the expiration of the forty-five (45) day
warranty period. Any replacement SOFTWARE will be warranted for the remainder of
the original warranty period or thirty (30) days, whichever is longer. NEITHER
THESE REMEDIES NOR ANY PRODUCT SUPPORT SERVICES OFFERED BY IMAGEWARE ARE
AVAILABLE FOR THIS U.S.A. VERSION PRODUCT OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA.
8. NO OTHER WARRANTIES. IMAGEWARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,
EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WITH RESPECT TO THE
SOFTWARE, THE ACCOMPANYING WRITTEN MATERIALS, AND ANY ACCOMPANYING HARDWARE.
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS. YOU MAY HAVE OTHERS WHICH
VARY FROM STATE TO STATE.
9. NO LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL IMAGEWARE OR ITS
SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR
EXEMPLARY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF
BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION) ARISING
OUT OF THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THIS IMAGEWARE PRODUCT, EVEN IF IMAGEWARE
HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE TOTAL
LIABILITY OF IMAGEWARE AND ITS SUPPLIERS TO YOU OR ANOTHER PERSON OR ENTITY
ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES
DOLLARS (US $100). BECAUSE SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION
OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY
NOT APPLY TO YOU.
10. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS. The SOFTWARE is a "commercial item" as that term
is defined at 48 C.F.R. 2.101, consisting of "commercial computer software" and
"commercial computer software documentation" as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R.
12.212. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through
227.7202-4, all U.S. Government end users acquire the SOFTWARE with only those
rights set forth herein.
11. TERM AND TERMINATION. This License is effective as of the date you agree to
its terms and remains in effect until terminated. You may terminate this License
at any time by destroying the SOFTWARE, documentation and Templates together
with all copies and merged portions in any form. This License will also
automatically terminate immediately if you fail to comply with any term or
condition of this License. Upon such termination you agree to destroy the
SOFTWARE and documentation, together with all copies and merged portions in any
form. Sections 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 shall survive any
termination of this License.
12. GOVERNING LAW. This license shall be governed by the laws of the State of
California and by the laws of the United States, excluding their conflicts of
laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the
International Sale of Goods (1980) is hereby excluded in its entirety from
application to this License.
13. SEVERABILITY. In the event any provision of this License is found to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of
any of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired and
a valid, legal and enforceable provision of similar intent and economic impact
shall be substituted therefore.
14. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This license constitutes the entire agreement between the
parties with respect to the use of the SOFTWARE and related documentation and
supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements. No amendment or modification
of this license will be binding unless in writing and signed by a duly
authorized representative of ImageWare.
-21-
<Page>
15. ASSIGNMENT. You may not assign any of your rights or obligations, in whole
or in part, under this Agreement without the advance written consent of
ImageWare. Any assignment of this Agreement may require the payment of
additional license fees.
16. THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE. If the ImageWare SOFTWARE requires use of any third
party software, it is your responsibility to legally obtain, either through
ImageWare or otherwise, a license to such third party software. If such third
party software is obtained through ImageWare and the licensor is Microsoft
Corporation ("Microsoft"), then the following applies to you: The Microsoft
products contained or referenced in the accompanying Microsoft software packages
or Microsoft license agreements have been integrated or pre-installed as part of
the ImageWare solution. Each Microsoft product is subject to its respective
Microsoft End User License Agreement contained in the accompanying software
packages or license agreements with the exception that the Microsoft product
functionality as integrated in the ImageWare solution may differ from a
nonintegrated Microsoft product and any issues concerning the functionality or
performance of the ImageWare solution and the Microsoft products should be
directed to ImageWare and not to Microsoft. Please be advised that if the
accompanying Microsoft product software package is in the form of a "Microsoft
License Pack," or a "Microsoft Open License" (as opposed to a full packaged
product), the right to make additional copies of the Microsoft product has
already been exercised by ImageWare in integrating or pre-installing the
Microsoft product in this solution. You may not, therefore, make additional
copies of the product pursuant to the Microsoft License Pak or the Microsoft
Open License notwithstanding any license terms in such document. YOU AGREE TO BE
BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THE MICROSOFT END USER LICENSE AGREEMENTS AND THIS
PARAGRAPH BY INSTALLING, COPYING, OR OTHERWISE USING THE MICROSOFT PRODUCTS. IF
YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT INSTALL OR USE THE PRODUCT; YOU MAY RETURN IT TO YOUR
PLACE OF PURCHASE FOR A FULL REFUND.
