information belonging to Author. None of the foregoing material may be copied, duplicated or disclosed without
the express written permission of Author. Author EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES CONCERNING THIS

WARRANTIES OF PERFORMANCE, AND ANY WARRANTY THAT MIGHT OTHERWISE ARISE FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. NO
WARRANTY IS EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WITH RESPECT TO THE USE OF THE SOFTWARE OR DOCUMENTATION. Under no circumstances
shall Author be liable for incidental, special, indirect, direct or consequential damages or loss of profits,

but not limited to those resulting from defects in software and/or documentation, or loss or inaccuracy of data of
any kind.
7.2 Ownership. Licensee further acknowledges that all copies of the Software in any form provided by Author
or made by Licensee are the sole property of Author. Licensee shall not have any right, title,
or interest in or to any such Software or copies thereof except as provided in this Agreement, and further shall secure

7.3 Sublicenses. No license to sublicense the source code of the Software or any portion thereof included in
any Derivative Products is granted hereunder.
7.4 Copies. Licensee shall not copy the source code of the Software except that Licensee may make one copy solely

8.1 Acknowledgement. Licensee hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Software and Documentation
constitute and contain valuable proprietary products and trade secrets of Author, embodying
substantial creative efforts and confidential information, ideas, and expressions. Accordingly, Licensee agrees to
treat (and take precautions to ensure that its employees treat) the Software and Documentation
as confidential in accordance with the confidentiality requirements and conditions set forth below.
8.2 Maintenance of Confidential Information. Each party agrees to keep confidential all confidential information
disclosed to it by the other party in accordance herewith, and to protect the confidentiality thereof in the same
manner it protects the confidentiality of similar information and data of its own (at all times exercising at least
a reasonable degree of care in the protection of confidential information); provided, however, that neither party
shall have any such obligation with respect to use of disclosure to others not parties to this Agreement of such
confidential information as can be established to: (a) have been known publicly; (b) have been known generally in the
industry before communication by the disclosing party to the recipient; © have become know publicly, without fault
on the part of the recipient, subsequent to disclosure by the disclosing party; (d) have been known otherwise by the
recipient before communication by the disclosing party; or (e) have been received by the recipient without any
obligation of confidentiality from a source (other than the disclosing party) lawfully having possession of such
information.
8.3 Injunctive Relief. Licensee acknowledges that the unauthorized use, transfer or disclosure of the Software,
Documentation or copies thereof will (i) substantially diminish the value to Author of the
trade secrets and other proprietary interests that are the subject of this Agreement; (ii) render Authors
remedy at law for such unauthorized use, disclosure or transfer inadequate; and (iii) cause irreparable injury in a
short period of time. If Licensee breaches any of its obligations with respect to the use or confidentiality of the
Software or Documentation, Author shall be entitled to equitable relief to protect its interests
therein, including, but not limited to, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief.
8.4 Survival. Licensees obligations under this Article 8 will survive the termination of this Agreement or of any
license granted under this Agreement for whatever reason.
9.1 Ownership. Author
represents its belief that it is the owner of the entire right, title, and interest in and to Software, and that it has the
sole right to grant licenses thereunder, and that it has not knowingly granted licenses thereunder to any other entity
that would restrict rights granted hereunder.
9.2 Limited Warranty. Author represents and warrants to Licensee that the Software when properly installed
by Licensee and used with the Designated Equipment will perform substantially as described in Authors then
current Documentation for such Software for a period of ninety (90) days from the date of delivery.
9.3 Limitations. Notwithstanding the warranty provisions set forth in Section 9.2 above, all of Authors
obligations with respect to such warranties shall be contingent on Licensees use of the Software in accordance with
this Agreement and in accordance with Authors instructions as provided by Author in the Documentation,
as such instructions may be amended, supplemented, or modified by Author from time to time. Author shall have
no warranty obligations with respect to any failures of the Software which are the result of accident, abuse, misapplication,
extreme power surge or extreme electromagnetic field.
9.4 Licensees Sole Remedy. Authors entire liability and Licensees exclusive remedy shall be, at
Authors option, either (a) return of the price paid or (b) repair or replacement of the Software upon its return
to Author; provided Author receives written notice from Licensee during the warranty period of a breach of warranty.
Any replacement Software Product will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period or thirty (30) days,
whichever is longer.
9.5 Disclaimer of Warranties. Author DOES NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT THAT ALL ERRORS IN THE SOFTWARE AND DOCUMENTATION
WILL BE CORRECTED. THE WARRANTIES STATED IN SECTION 9.2 ABOVE ARE THE SOLE AND THE EXCLUSIVE WARRANTIES OFFERED BY Author.
THERE ARE NO OTHER WARRANTIES RESPECTING THE SOFTWARE, DERIVATIVE PRODUCTS, DOCUMENTATION OR SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER,
EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY WARRANTY OF DESIGN, MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, EVEN IF Author HAS BEEN INFORMED OF SUCH PURPOSE. NO AGENT OF Author IS AUTHORIZED TO ALTER OR EXCEED THE
WARRANTY OBLIGATIONS OF Author AS SET FORTH HEREIN.
9.6 Limitation of Liability. LICENSEE ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE CONSIDERATION WHICH Author IS CHARGING
HEREUNDER DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY CONSIDERATION FOR ASSUMPTION BY Author OF THE RISK OF LICENSEES CONSEQUENTIAL
OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY ARISE IN CONNECTION WITH LICENSEES USE OF THE SOFTWARE, DERIVATIVE PRODUCTS
AND DOCUMENTATION. ACCORDINGLY, LICENSEE AGREES THAT Author SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE TO LICENSEE FOR ANY LOSS-OF-PROFIT,
INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE LICENSING OR USE OF THE SOFTWARE, DERIVATIVE
PRODUCTS OR DOCUMENTATION. Any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of Author to
any person, firm or corporation whatsoever arising out of or in the connection with any license, use or other employment
of any Software delivered to Licensee hereunder, whether such liability arises from any claim based on breach or repudiation
of contract, warranty, tort or otherwise, shall in no case exceed the actual price paid to Author by Licensee for the
Software whose license, use, or other employment gives rise to the liability. The essential purpose of this provision is
to limit the potential liability of Author arising out of this Agreement. The parties acknowledge that the limitations
set forth in this Article 9 are integral to the amount of consideration levied in connection with the license of the
Software and Documentation and any services rendered hereunder and that, were Author to assume
any further liability other than as set forth herein, such consideration would of necessity be set substantially higher.
10.1 Author shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend Licensee against any action brought against Licensee to the extent
that such action is based on a claim that the unmodified Software, when used in accordance with this Agreement, infringes a
United States copyright and Author shall pay all costs, settlements and damages finally awarded; provided, that Licensee
promptly notifies Author in writing of any claim, gives Author sole control of the defense and settlement thereof and
provides all reasonable assistance in connection therewith. If any Software is finally adjudged to so infringe, or in
Authors opinion is likely to become the subject of such a claim, Author shall, at its option, either: (i) procure
for Licensee the right to continue using the Software (ii) modify or replace the Software to make it noninfringing, or
(iii) refund the fee paid, less reasonable depreciation, upon return of the Software. Author shall have no liability
regarding any claim arising out of: (w) use of other than a current, unaltered release of the Software unless the infringing
portion is also in the then current, unaltered release, (x) use of the Software in combination with non-Author software, data
or equipment if the infringement was caused by such use or combination, (y) any modification or derivation of the Software not
specifically authorized in writing by Author or (z) use of third party software. THE FOREGOING STATES THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF
Author AND THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR LICENSEE RELATING TO INFRINGEMENT OR CLAIMS OF INFRINGEMENT OF ANY COPYRIGHT OR OTHER
PROPRIETARY RIGHT BY THE SOFTWARE.
10.2 Except for the foregoing infringement claims, Licensee shall indemnify and hold harmless Author and agents from and
against any claims, demands, or causes of action whatsoever, including without limitation those arising on account of
Licensees modification or enhancement of the Software or otherwise caused by, or arising out of, or resulting from,
the exercise or practice of the license granted hereunder by Licensee, its sublicensees, if any, its subsidiaries or their
officers, employees, agents or representatives.
12.1 Events of Default. This Agreement may be terminated by the nondefaulting party if any of the following events of
default occur: (1) if a party materially fails to perform or comply with this Agreement or any provision hereof; (2) if
either party fails to strictly comply with the provisions of Article 8 (Confidentiality) or makes an assignment in violation
of Article 14 (Nonassignability); (3) if a party becomes insolvent or admits in writing its inability to pay its debts as
they mature, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (4) if a petition under any foreign, state, or United
States bankruptcy act, receivership statute, or the like, as they now exist, or as they may be amended, is filed by a
party; or (5) if such a petition is filed by any third party, or an application for a receiver is made by anyone and such
petition or application is not resolved favorably within ninety (90) days.
12.2 Effective Date of Termination. Termination due to a material breach of Articles 2 (Grant of Rights), 5 (Derivative
Products), 7 (Protection of Software), or 8 (Confidentiality) shall be effective on notice. In all other cases, termination
shall be effective thirty (30) days after notice of termination to the defaulting party if the defaults have not been cured
within such thirty (30) day period.
12.3 Obligations on Termination. Within ten (10) days after termination of this Agreement, Licensee shall cease and desist
all use of the Software and Documentation and shall destroy or return to Author all full or partial copies of the Software and
Documentation in Licensees possession or under its control.
All notices, authorizations, and requests in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed given (i) five days after being
deposited in the U.S. mail, postage prepaid, certified or registered, return receipt requested; or (ii) one day after being sent
by overnight courier, charges prepaid, with a confirming fax; and addressed as first set forth above or to such other address
as the party to receive the notice or request so designates by written notice to the other.
Licensee shall not assign this Agreement or its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of Author.
The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State
of California. The California state courts (or, if there is exclusive federal jurisdiction, the United States District
Court for the District of California) shall have exclusive jurisdiction and venue over any dispute arising out of
this Agreement, and Licensee hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such courts.
If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or
unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
This Agreement and its exhibits contain the entire understanding and agreement between the parties respecting the subject
matter hereof. This Agreement may not be supplemented, modified, amended, released or discharged except by an instrument in
writing signed by each partys duly authorized representative. All captions and headings in this Agreement are for
purposes of convenience only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of any of its provisions. Any waiver
by either party of any default or breach hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of any provision of this Agreement or
of any subsequent default or breach of the same or a different kind.
