TriTech will provide Telephone Support service twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7)
days a week, or on a Business Hour basis as more fully described in Addendum B. Client will
ensure that only personnel properly trained in the operation and usage of the TriTech Software

5.0 SOFTWARE ERROR CORRECTION
If, during the term of this Agreement, Client determines that Software Error(s) exist, it
will first follow any error procedures specified in the TriTech Documentation. If following the
error procedures does not correct the Software Error, Client shall immediately notify TriTech
pursuant to the guidelines and procedures described in Addendum B, setting forth the defects
noted with specificity requested by TriTech. Upon notification of a reported Software Error,
TriTech shall attempt to reproduce and verify the error and, if so verified, will correct the
Software Error(s) in accordance with Addendum B. If TriTech is unable to reproduce the
Software Error at TriTech’s facility but it is reproducible at the Client’s site, the Client may
request onsite assistance. If the Client and TriTech determine that it is necessary for TriTech
personnel to travel to Client’s site to reproduce the error, Client shall pay TriTech’s travel
expenses incident to the on-site visit. If the reported problem is determined to have been caused
by Equipment, Subcontractor Software or Hardware, or System Software, or is otherwise not
attributable to the TriTech Software, Client shall, in addition, pay TriTech’s labor related to the
on-site visit at its then current hourly rates for technical support and engineering.

accompanying Release Notes shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Software

include new versions or separate modules or functions that are separately licensed and priced.)
