        JP SOFTWARE'S PLAIN ENGLISH SHAREWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT
                          AND LIMITED WARRANTY

   (1) Introduction.  This agreement explains when and how you may use
   both shareware (trial) and registered (purchased) copies of software
   products from JP Software.  In this agreement:

      >> "Program" means the JP Software software products(s) you have
         purchased or obtained for evaluation, including both the software
         and the associated documentation and other materials;

      >> "Shareware Copy" means a copy of the Program distributed by us or
         by our authorized agents for evaluation purposes and which is
         described as a trial or shareware copy in the Program's sign-on
         messages;

      >> "Registered Copy" means a copy of the Program purchased from us or
         from a dealer, and which is not described as a trial or
         shareware copy in the Program's sign-on messages;

      >> "Bundle" means a set of one or more Programs sold together as a
         "pack", "suite", or other similar term, all for use on the same
         computer;

      >> "we" or "us" means JP Software Inc., a corporation based in
         Arlington, Massachusetts, USA; and

      >> "you" means the end user of the Program.

   (2) Legal Agreement.  This is a legal agreement which allows you, the
   end user, to use the Program under certain terms and conditions.  If
   you cannot agree to abide by what this agreement says you should not
   use or evaluate the Program.

   (3) Copyright.  The Program is fully protected by copyright under
   U.S. law and international treaty provisions.

   (4) Evaluation Period.  You may use a Shareware Copy of the Program
   for an evaluation period of up to 21 days, in order to determine
   whether the program meets your needs before purchasing it.  Once the
   evaluation period ends, you agree to either purchase a Registered
   Copy of the Program, or to stop using it.  If you have ordered a
   Registered Copy of the Program from us or from a dealer, you may
   continue to use your Shareware Copy until your Registered Copy
   arrives.

   (5) Use of the Program.  While you are evaluating the Program, you
   may use it on as many computers as are required to perform your
   evaluation.  Your 21-day evaluation period begins when you first
   install the Program on one or more computers for evaluation purposes.

   Once the evaluation period is over and you purchase the program, your
   use is subject to the following restrictions:

      (A) You agree not to install or use any individual copy of the
      Program on more than one computer at a time.  However, you may
      install an individual copy simultaneously on one computer at work,
      one computer at home, and one portable computer, IF (and ONLY if)
      all these computers are used primarily by the same individual, and
      there is no possibility that the computers will be in use at the
      same time except while you are actively transferring files between
      them.  This provision is only for individual copies and does not
      apply to multi-system licenses.  If the Program was purchased by
      your employer you agree to get your employer's explicit permission
      before installing the Program on multiple computers as described
      here.
   
      (B) If you purchased an individual copy of a Bundle containing more
      than one Program, you agree that all Programs in the Bundle will
      be used on the same computer.  You may not use one Program or set
      of Programs from a Bundle on one computer, and at the same time use
      a different Program or set of Programs from the same Bundle on a
      second computer.

      (C) If you purchased a multi-system license for the Program or a
      Bundle you agree not to install or use the Program or Programs on
      more computers than the number included in your license, as shown
      on your order, payment, invoice, or other similar documentation;
      the program sign-on screen; or other electronic or printed
      documents received from us or our dealer.
      
      If your license is for a Bundle containing more than one Program,
      you agree that all Programs in the licensed Bundle will be used on
      the same computers.  You may not split the Programs within the
      Bundle between different computers in a way which causes the total
      number of computers on which any Program from the Bundle is used
      or installed to exceed the number of systems included in your
      license.

   (6) Making and Distributing Shareware Copies of the Program.  You may
   make copies of your Shareware Copy of the Program to give to others,
   as long as you include all of the files that you originally received
   with your Shareware Copy.  When you give a Shareware Copy of the
   Program to another person, you agree to inform them that their copy
   is to be used for a time limited evaluation period, and that they
   must purchase a Registered Copy if they continue to use the Program
   once the evaluation period has ended.  You agree not to sell
   Shareware Copies of the Program or distribute them to others for any
   kind of compensation or fee unless you abide by the restrictions in
   JP Software's VENDOR.DOC file.

   (7) Copying Registered Copies of the Program.  When you receive a
   Registered Copy of the Program you may make copies of the Program
   software which are necessary for normal backup purposes.  You agree
   not to make any other copies of the software, the manual(s), or any
   part of them, or sell or give any copies to others, without our
   advance written permission.

   (8) Operation of the Program.  The Program offers powerful
   capabilities.  If you do not follow our instructions, or if you use
   the Program improperly, you can destroy files or cause other damage
   to your software and data.  You assume full responsibility for the
   selection and use of the Program to achieve your intended results.

   (9) LIMITED WARRANTY:  The following limited warranty applies to
   Registered Copies of the Program.  It is included here so you
   understand what your warranty will be when you purchase a Registered
   Copy.  This warranty does NOT apply to Shareware Copies of the
   Program.

      Physical Defects.  We pledge that the disks and manuals we send
      you will arrive free of physical defects which interfere with
      normal use.  If you find such a defect and report it to us within
      90 days after you purchase the Program, we agree to replace the
      defective item(s) at no charge to you as long as the defect was
      not caused by misuse or abuse.

      Bugs and Program Errors.  We don't promise that the Program will
      be free of bugs or program errors.  If you report a program error
      or bug to us, we will use our best efforts to correct it.  If we
      issue a maintenance release for the Program which includes a
      correction for an error you reported, we will assist you in
      downlaoding it, or send you a copy of that maintenance release at
      no charge if you request it.  We will only do this for maintenance
      releases, not for new major releases or other new versions of the
      Program.

      Satisfaction Guarantee.  If you are dissatisfied with any product
      you buy from us under this Agreement for any reason, you may
      return it at any time up to 90 days after purchase and we will
      give you a refund.  If the product is a JP Software product we
      will give you a full refund.  If it is not a JP Software product
      we will give you a full refund if in our judgment the product is
      returned in complete, undamaged, and resellable condition, or a
      50% refund if not.  Refunds will be based on the price you paid,
      less shipping and rush order charges.  You must contact us for a
      return authorization before returning any product for a refund.
      This satisfaction guarantee does not apply to multi-system
      licenses for more than 10 computers, or to purchases of more than
      10 individual copies at one time.

   (10) DISCLAIMERS, LIMITATIONS, and RESTRICTED RIGHTS.  And now the
   legal language we couldn't avoid:

      DISCLAIMER FOR SHAREWARE COPIES:  YOU ARE NOT PAYING FOR THE TRIAL

      THE SHAREWARE COPY IS PROVIDED "AS-IS" AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY

      DISCLAIMER FOR REGISTERED COPIES:  EXCEPT FOR THE LIMITED WARRANTY
      STATED ABOVE, WE DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR

      WARRANTY ABOVE GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, BUT YOU MAY HAVE
      OTHER RIGHTS, WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE.

      LIMITATION OF LIABILITY:  IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY
      INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES WHATSOEVER ARISING

      INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, THEREFORE THE ABOVE
      LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
