14 HP services and technical support

HP offers a number of software support services, many of which are provided to our customers at no additional
charge.

Software Technical Support and Update Service—VCEM includes one year of 24 x 7 HP Software
Technical Support and Update Service. This service provides access to HP technical resources for
assistance in resolving software implementation or operations problems. The service also provides
access to software updates and reference manuals either in electronic form or on physical media as
they are made available from HP. (Customers who purchase an electronic license to use are eligible
for electronic updates only.) With this service, customers benefit from expedited problem resolution as
well as proactive notification and delivery of software updates. For more information about this service,
