COMPLIANCE OFFICER LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR MICROSOFT
CONSENT DECREE
IMPORTANT: READ CAREFULLY - These Microsoft Corporation ("Microsoft")
consent decrees are subject to the terms and conditions of the agreement
under which you have licensed employment at Microsoft (a "Compliance
Officer License Agreement" or "COLA"). BY ACCEPTING
EMPLOYMENT, INTERVIEWING OR OTHERWISE THINKING ABOUT THE CONSENT
DECREE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE
MICROSOFT COLA. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
YOU CANNOT BECOME A COMPLIANCE OFFICER AND CONSIDER YOURSELF LUCKY
WE'RE GOING TO BE REAL BASTARDS ABOUT THIS.
NOTE: YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS UNDER THIS COLA.
Capitalized and uncapitalized words and phrases used in this Supplemental
COLA and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned
to them by Microsoft.
General. The employment that is provided to you by Microsoft to
oversee, advise, or enforce the existing consent decree against Microsoft
grants you a license to use the Consent Decree under the terms and
conditions of the Microsoft COLA (which are hereby incorporated by
reference). To the extent that any terms in this Microsoft COLA conflict
with terms of the Consent Decree, the terms of this COLA control
solely with respect to the Compliance Officer.
Additional Rights and Limitations.
* Microsoft may at any time monitor and block any communications
with any Attorneys General, Justice Department officials or any other
officer of the court in regards to compliance violations.
* The licensee will be confined to a 6' X 6' "cubicle" at
the Microsoft headquarters and will receive updates on our compliance
to the consent decree on a daily basis. The licensee will be prohibited
from modifying these Compliance Updates and will forward them onto
the court unaltered.
* Any failure of compliance discovered by the compliance officer
must first be reported to Microsoft who will correct the problem
in a reasonable about of time. Since we're going to fix the problem
there really shouldn't be any reason to report the violation, right?
*The licensee cannot be cloned, copied or reproduced by any mechanical,
electronic, or biological means.
EXCLUSION OF INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL AND CERTAIN OTHER DAMAGES.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL
MICROSOFT BE LIABLE FOR ANY BANKRUPTCY OF COMPETITION, COMPLIANCE

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND REMEDIES. SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT
OF U.S.$5.00. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS, EXCLUSIONS AND DISCLAIMERS
SHALL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, OR
AS LONG AS OUR MONEY FOR LAWYERS HOLDS OUT EVEN IF ANY REMEDY
FAILS ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
