These new agreements and forms must be used for all new enrollments as of this date.
The updated agreements and forms are part of IBM's change in terminology from using "Software Maintenance" to the more descriptive "Software Subscription and Support". This is a terminology change only - there are no benefit or obligation changes in the terms of the agreement and existing Passport Advantage Agreements are not affected, so there will not be a general contract change notification to the existing Passport Advantage customer base.
