Dear Dr. Curet:

Thank you for your letter of February 6,1984 expressing an interest in obtaining the most recently released version of the Transient Reactor Analysis Code (TRAC-PF1/M001). The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC happy to transmit to you a magnetic tape containing the code and copy a)will of thebe draft user's manual provided that EG&G Services Inc. (EGG) agrees to the following.

1. EGG will not release the code software to any third party.
2. EGG will immediately notify the NRC of any reactor safety problem which may be uncovered through the use of the code.
3. If EGG discovers code errors. EGG will communicate these errors to the code developers (Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL)).
4. EGG will make the results of the code use available to the NRC.
5. If EGG makes any improvement and/or modification to the code, these improvements or modifications will be made available to the NRC.

Should code improvements and modifications, or the results of code use, be deterutned to be company proprietary, the NPC will utilize its procedures to protect such information.

6. If EGG requires LANL assistance to implement and/or use this software, the assistance will be given on a cost recovery basis and will be negotiated in a separate agreement with the NRC.

In interpreting the results of your analyses under Items 2 and 4 above, bear in mind that the TRAC-PFI/ MODI code has undergone developmental assessment, but the independent assessment of the code has not yet been completed. We do not warrant the accuracy of the results for any particular use or appitcation.

g signature below of an appropriate official of your company will indicate acc'eptance of these items. If you accept these terms. I will arrange for the N N 8701140379 870109
