5. Microsoft Confidential 5 License Overview Replaces multiple Licensing SKUs
Standard License, Version Upgrade, Competitive Upgrade, Product Upgrade, Language Upgrade, and ‘get current’ portion of Upgrade Advantage
Provides rights to current version
No pre-requisite to purchase
One-time purchase Key points:
Reduced complexity of sku offerings
License replaces Std, VUP, CUP, PUP, LUP and ‘get current’ portion of UA
The new licensing programs make purchasing simple. There is no longer a need to learn complicated qualifying rules, which differ across products, to ensure compliance. The base license replaces the standard license, version upgrade, competitive upgrade, product upgrade, and the ‘get current’ portion of upgrade advantage.
Common Question: Why are you taking upgrades away on October 1?
In simplifying our licensing by introducing Software Assurance, we are providing customers with the ability to upgrade in one of 3 ways:
Enroll in Software Assurance, through Open, Select or EA
Enroll in an EA Subscription, providing non-perpetual rights
Purchase standard Licenses to obtain the rights to new versions
We believe we need to replace one-time upgrades with Software Assurance offerings because:
One-time upgrades don’t support the stronger relationship with Microsoft that our customers have asked for and are complicated
Software will evolve towards software-as-a-service, which will include a more frequent upgrade cycle
More and more customers are committing to using the latest Microsoft software on an ongoing basis, choosing subscription licensing as an alternative to our traditional perpetual licenses
Software Assurance provides a smooth migration to software-as-a-service and protects customers’ investments in current software

6. Microsoft Confidential 6 Software Assurance Overview Provides upgrades and updates through enrollment term
After 1.02.2002 Initial SA purchase MUST be purchased with License
License & Software Assurance Package
Available separately at time of renewal or for OEM/FPP
Price reflects remaining years of term
Annual payments Key points:
Software assurance is like maintenance – provides software updates and upgrades through term
Annuity model: License is the ‘ticket into the annuity’ – never have to re-buy license if you keep your SA active
Only available at time of purchasing license (exceptions discussed later)
Pro-rated pricing – only pay for years remaining in term (specifics re: timing discussed later – basic message: always reflects remaining years, but I can buy L&SA in year 1, year 2 or even year 3.
If a customer wants the benefits of Software Assurance, they have to add it at the time of purchase of the license. In other words, a customer could not purchase the license, and a year later enroll it in Software Assurance. The benefits of software assurance will last for the remainder of their enrollment term, and is priced accordingly.
Stay current
Bus analogy – you buy a ticket to get on the bus, you can ride all day long. If you get off the bus and want to get back on, you need to buy another ticket.
Will be able to pay in annual payments or can choose to pay up front.
We will talk about it more later, but Select is moving toward a 3 year program. Open is still 2 years.

9. Microsoft Confidential 9 Software Assurance Pricing Tiered Volume Price Levels
Applications
Software Assurance = 29% License per year
Systems
Software Assurance = 29% License per year
Servers
Software Assurance = 25% License per year Key points:
SA is based on percentage of license price.
Annual annuity, so it’s presented as an annual price
Apps & systems – 29% L; Servers – 25% L
Different percentages: customers have a tendency to upgrade less frequently with servers, and we release upgrades for those servers less frequently as well. So the relative potential value of the maintenance for servers, in terms of number of upgrades, is lower. And we wanted to give our customers the benefit of that in our pricing model.

Reference slide
Standalone license is offered in Open, Select, OEM, and FPP
SA is available outside of the L&SA Package only for customers at the end of their L&SA Package term, or for customers enrolling an OEM or retail product in SA.
SA and the L&SA package aren’t available in retail stores or from an OEM – it’s a volume licensing purchase, providing benefits to volume licensing products. But you can take most OEM and Retail products, and purchase SA for those products through Select or Open – again, provided you do so within 90 days of the OEM/FPP license purchase.

14. Microsoft Confidential 14 OSL: Core CAL replaces BO CAL Client access license that provides the rights for “desktops” (ie, devices) to access the following servers:
Exchange 2000
Windows Server (Whistler)
SharePoint Portal Server
SMS (2.0)
Servers must be licensed separately
Licensing package for clients – not a retail box
Positioning Statement
Core CAL provides a convenient way for enterprise customers to license their desktops for intranet, networking, and collaboration. Core CAL Overview Client access license that provides the rights for “desktops” (ie, devices) to access the following servers:
Exchange 2000
Windows Server (Whistler)
SharePoint Portal Server
SMS (2.0)
Servers must be licensed separately
Licensing package for clients – not available through retail
Positioning Statement
Core CAL provides a convenient way for enterprise customers to license their desktops for intranet, networking, and collaboration.
Benefits of Core CAL Customer Benefits
Convenience
Easy way to license basic components across all desktops
Reduces burden among IT to count the number of client licenses to access each individual server software.
By removing SQL, HIS and ISA: not overpaying for access rights
Pricing
Package discount about 5% less than licensing individual CALs
Volume Licensing offerings
Enterprise Agreements
Core CAL replaces BackOffice CAL
SQL Server available as Additional Product (Server/CAL or per proc)
Select and Open License
Core CAL or Individual CALs (Exchange CAL, SMS CAL, Windows CAL, SharePoint Portal Server CAL)
Key points:
Primary benefit is a convenient way to buy – only slight discount over the sum of the parts
Replaces BO CAL in EA; SQL offered as additional product
Also available in Select and Open
Most customers were unhappy with SQL in BackOffice because they felt they were paying for it as a processor as well as a CAL. This eliminates any double paying.
Other customers were unhappy because they were paying for SQL and they did not even use it. About 30% of all customers used SQL.

16. Microsoft Confidential 16 Actions for Microsoft and Channel Key points:
The focus of these slides is on mapping the appropriate sales opportunity to the customer scenario.
The transition and launch grace periods provide opportunities for the customer, as well as for Microsoft and our channel partners. The basic message behind all of these slides is “Sell UA and EAs now”, “sell Software Assurance beginning October 1”.
Key points:
Transition period: May 10 – Sept 30 – time to get current
Grace launch period: Oct 1 – Jan 31 – time to enroll installed base in SA
Steady state: begins Feb 1 – can only buy SA if renewing existing SA or as part of L&SA purchase
There are 3 key time periods that are important to be aware of:
The May through September “Transition Period” provides time for customers to be educated, make decisions, and execute on purchase actions necessary to transition to the new programs and annuity model. This is the final period of time for the availability of VUP,s CUP, PUP, and UA offerings . Actions taken during this period will help ensure the most cost effective transition to he annuity model. This is the time to get customers current on the latest versions of our software.
The October through January “Launch Grace Period” is when the new programs are launched, the new SKUs are available, and the old SKUs (VUPs,PUPs,CUPs,UA) are not. This is the last time that a customer can purchase SA for their installed base of current products.
February 1 begins the period of what we call ‘steady state’ – the grace launch period is over, so now the only time a licensing customer can purchase SA is as part of the License & Software Assurance Package or upon renewing existing SA.

17. Microsoft Confidential 17 Get “Current” Key points:
Current license is one that qualifies as the latest version of a product
It’s important to understand the definition of “current” vs. “non-current” as these concepts form the basis of the transition scenarios that move a customer from the old to new model.
Current licenses refer to the latest version of the product listed on the 10/1 price list. For new products releasing between our announce and the end of the launch grace period, we will treat the new version and the previous one as current. So for example, if a new version of Exchange were to become available on the 11/1 price list, both the versions of Exchange listed on the 10/1 and 11/1 price lists would be considered “current”.
A list of products to be considered current on the 10/1 price list is included at the end of the slide deck.
We will also make a distinction between new purchases made after the launch of this program, and purchases made prior to that – what we are calling the ‘installed base’.
ON Feb 1st launch grace period ends.
Oct 1 – Feb 1 they can buy SA only or package L&SA
On Feb 1 we will not sell SA alone. If they do not have it, after Feb 1, they will need to buy new license with their SA if they want it.

18. Microsoft Confidential 18 Sales Opportunities Changes make Upgrade Advantage very attractive option
Grandfather’s customer into SA
Microsoft Office 97 customers
BIG OPPORTUNITY Customer/Partner
UA = VUP + 5%
19. Microsoft Confidential 19 UA Transition Open Grandfathered into Software Assurance
UA has same point value as the underlying product license
Less Cost than VUP plus SA. Best priced option
No purchase necessary in Launch Grace Period
In steady state, eligible for Software Assurance renewals
Will benefit from starting new Agreement or Authorization number
Office Pro UA pricing will be better than Office Pro VUP pricing for the period May 1 - June 30. Customers buying UA will get two years of coverage, plus they get “grandfathered” into L & SA…all for less than a VUP.
Only Office XP purchased through Volume Licensing will be eligible to enroll in SA. Office OEM and FPP will not be eligible after Oct. 1. Key points:
Select and Open customers should purchase UA and/or VUPs now (transition period)
Let’s start by looking at the Select and Open customers with non-current licenses. These customers have the most decisions to make, and have the ability to stagger some of their purchase activity over the transition and Launch grace periods.
They can decide to take the easy migration path by simply purchasing Upgrade Advantage during this transition period, and those licenses will automatically be enrolled in Software Assurance.
They can also choose to purchase VUPs during the transition period, with the option to enroll those current licenses in Software Assurance during the Launch Grace Period.
If they do nothing during these periods, then decide to go to the Software Assurance annuity model, they’ll be required to purchase the License & Software Assurance Package.
Depending on the remaining length of their agreement term, they may want to consider signing a new Select agreement or opening a new Open Auth number to get the maximum value from their Software Assurance term.
So key things to note here:
Although existing agreements are not impacted, purchase options have changed dramatically
Non-current customers who choose the Software Assurance annuity model have a streamlined approach for future purchases
Customers with Select agreements have the option to finance the cost of new License & Software Assurance packages
Select customers have the option to get Software Assurance on 100% of their new licenses, and get the associated benefits, including eligibility for Gold and Platinum Premier Support.
Office Retail & OEM will not be available to enroll in SA. This decision was made with the Office team, and based on feedback from LEs and VL champs who attended the training in April. Only Office purchased through VL will be eligibile to enroll in SA. In the SME Open space, again, we expect virtually no Open customers to purchase SA (legally) except to renew UA, as SA pricing in Open is more expensive than ad hoc full License purchases for virtually all upgrade scenarios. Customers who have purchased Office OEM or Retail can enroll those in UA prior to October and then get have their UA grandfathered into SA. Key points:

Purchase Software Assurance in Launch Grace Period
Higher priced option to enroll in Software Assurance
Lower upfront cost
Short-term budget benefit
If Customer still not bought into annuity concept, sell VUP
Key points:
* Customers who are already current, but don’t have UA, can purchase SA during the launch grace period.
A Select or Open customer who already has the latest versions of our products, or chooses to get them during this transition period, but doesn’t have or want UA, they should purchase software assurance during the launch grace period. Simple.

February 1 begins the period of what we call ‘steady state’ – the grace launch period is over, so now the only time a licensing customer can purchase SA is as part of the License & Software Assurance Package or upon renewing existing SA.
