 SOFTWARE EVALUATION AGREEMENT

IMPORTANT-READ CAREFULLY: This Software has been provided for evaluation
purposes only. 

This Software Evaluation Agreement ("Agreement") forms a legal agreement between the
End User, either an individual or corporate entity ("End User") and Hyperion Solutions Corporation ("Hyperion") for the accompanying "Hyperion Analyzer" Product(s)("Software").
By installing, copying, or otherwise using the Software, Licensee agrees to be bound
by the terms of this Agreement. If you do not agree to the terms of this Agreement do
not install or use the Software Product(s).

1.  PURPOSE.  Within the protection of a confidential relationship and subject to
the terms and conditions hereof, End User wishes to evaluate the Software for the
limited purposes of internal testing and evaluation (the "Evaluation") of determining whether to provide a purchase commitment to Hyperion for the Software and Hyperion is willing to provide Software to End User for the Evaluation.

2.  GRANT OF LICENSE.

	(a)  " Software" means each accompanying Hyperion software program in
object code format provided to End User, including any updates, modifications, or
new releases of such software program that Hyperion provides to End User from time to
time.

	(b)  Hyperion hereby grants to End User a non-exclusive, non-transferable
limited license (the "License) to use the Software internally for evaluation and
testing purposes only and only during the Evaluation Period (not to exceed thirty
(30) days from the date Software was first installed).  End User may install the
Software on no more than five (5) computers during the Evaluation.  End User may not 
sublicense, assign, or otherwise transfer any of its rights in this License.  The
license granted hereunder will expire at the end of the Evaluation Period unless
extended, in Hyperion's sole option, upon written notice from Hyperion, or terminated
as described below.  At the end of the Evaluation Period, or any earlier termination
of the License herein, End User shall immediately return the Software to Hyperion and
erase or otherwise destroy all copies.

	(c) Licensee may only use the PivotTable Service Files ("PTS Files") to
create data cubes that contain only data extracted from a Microsoft SQL Server.

3.  OWNERSHIP OF SOFTWARE.  End User acknowledges that, as between the
parties, Hyperion retains sole right, title and interest in and to the: (i) Software,
(ii) all copyrights and other intellectual property rights with respect to the
Software, and (iii) suggestions made by End User for the Software, even if such
suggestions are incorporated into subsequent versions of the Software.

4.  RESTRICTIONS.  End User agrees to make copies of the Software only as is required
solely for replacement of the original in the event the original becomes unusable.
End User may use the Software in machine-readable form only and agrees not to reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Software.  End User agrees not to modify nor
create a derivative of any part of the Software, nor remove any product identification, copyright or other notices. If Hyperion delivers an upgrade or maintenance release
update of the Software, End User agrees to destroy and not use, nor permit the use of,
any previous copy of such Software except during the limited conversion period. End
User may not disclose the results of performance or benchmark tests run on or against
the Software without the prior written consent of Hyperion.

5. EVALUATION.  End User hereby acknowledges that the Evaluation is expressly for the purpose of determining if the Software will meet its business needs.

6. LIMITED WARRANTY.  Hyperion warrants that the Software will perform substantially
in accordance with the accompanying written materials. HYPERION DISCLAIMS ALL
OTHER WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

7.  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.  IN NO EVENT WILL HYPERION BE LIABLE FOR
DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR OTHER
DAMAGES RESULTING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT,
WHETHER IN AN ACTION BASED ON CONTRACT OR TORT, INCLUDING
NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY, AND EVEN IF HYPERION HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

8.  TERMINATION.  Either Hyperion or End User may terminate this Agreement at any
time with or without cause.  Upon any termination of this Agreement, or upon
expiration of the Evaluation Period, only the License to use the Software, and the
limited permission to make copies, will terminate, all other rights and obligations
will survive such termination.

9.  MISCELLANEOUS.  This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior oral and written agreements, negotiations, understandings and communications regarding such subject
matter.  If any of the provisions of this Agreement are invalid under any applicable
statute or rule of law, they are, to that extent, deemed omitted, and the balance of
this Agreement will be enforceable in accordance with its terms.  Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of
California, as applied to agreements made and performed entirely in that state.
