ACCUSOFT CORPORATION

LIMITED USE ‘SHRINK-WRAP’ LICENSE AGREEMENT

 

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING LICENSE AGREEMENT (“AGREEMENT” or “Agreement”) WHICH GOVERNS YOUR RIGHT TO USE OF PRIZM VIEWER OR ANY PORTION THEREOF (“PROGRAM” or “Program”).  YOU MUST ACCEPT THESE TERMS BEFORE YOU ARE ALLOWED TO INSTALL, COPY, DEPLOY, OR USE THE PROGRAM.  YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO CONTRACTUALLY BIND THE ORGANIZATION OR ENTITY YOU REPRESENT (“LICENSEE”) TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS.

BY CHECKING THE “I ACCEPT THE TERMS IN THE LICENSE AGREEMENT” CHECKBOX AND CONTINUING WITH THE INSTALLATION BY PUSHING THE “NEXT” BUTTON, YOU AND LICENSEE AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT.

1.         Background.  Accusoft Corporation, a Florida corporation (“Accusoft”) is the owner of all rights, title, and interest in the Program.  LICENSEE desires to receive and use a copy of Program under the terms and conditions stated herein, for the sole purpose of evaluating the Program (the “Purpose”), and not for any commercial usage, or LICENSEE has purchased license codes from Accusoft and has either, entered into a separate license agreement with Accusoft governing LICENSEE’s other use of Program, or LICENSEE has received, acknowledges and accepts the terms of a license certificate associated with LICENSEE’s purchase of license codes and governing LICENSEE’s non-evaluation-mode use of Program.

 

2.         Evaluation Mode and Licensed Mode

 

Default Installation - Evaluation Mode (or Trial Licensing)

 

The Program installation installs Program in Evaluation Mode. This allows you to test all Program features and functions. Images may be displayed with a watermark on them and occasionally dialogs may be posted reminding you that Program is in evaluation mode. Printed, exported and e-mailed images may also display a watermark.  This Evaluation Mode license expires after 30 days at which time Program may cease operating.  If your evaluation is not complete at that time, please contact sales@accusoft.com to see if your Evaluation Mode license time can be extended.

 

Changing from Evaluation Mode to Licensed Mode

 

License codes may be purchased at www.accusoft.com or through sales@accusoft.com. Once purchased, license codes will be sent to the purchaser via e-mail. Detailed licensing instructions are provided in the email you will receive.   LICENSEE’s rights as to the number of installations and scope and term of use are governed by solely by the amount purchased and LICENSEE is required to purchase the appropriate number of installation licenses PRIOR TO SUCH INSTALLATIONS or obtain a separate written and fully executed license agreement prior to deploying PROGRAM or applications which include PROGRAM.

 

Accusoft software applications, including the Program, are limited to use on a single computer. No runtimes or copies may be installed or distributed unless that installation or distribution is granted by a direct license under a separate license agreement from Accusoft. These 'license agreements' provide the terms and limits of number of copies and usage.

 

All prospective customers have every opportunity to evaluate Accusoft's products including Program prior to purchasing. Accusoft fully supports and warrants its code and its pricing of Program reflects those support and warranty costs.

 

3.         Evaluation Mode Limited License.  In Evaluation Mode, Accusoft grants to LICENSEE only a limited, nontransferable, nonexclusive and non-assignable license to evaluate the Program on a single computer for a thirty (30) day period and as may be extended by Accusoft on LICENSEE’s request (“Term”) beginning on the date of download of the Program, for the sole purpose of evaluating the Program (the “Purpose”), and not for any commercial usage.  For clarity, LICENSEE may only install and use the Program on a single computer, and may only use it in an internal testing or proof-of-concept environment.  LICENSEE IS NOT PERMITTED TO INSTALL AND USE THE PROGRAM IN A PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT.  Either party may terminate this Agreement for convenience prior to the end of the Term on one day’s written notice (email notice is acceptable) to the other party.  LICENSEE shall have no right to, and shall not assign this Agreement whether by transfer, assignment, merger or otherwise.  

 

4.         Commercial License.  License codes may be purchased at www.accusoft.com or through sales@accusoft.com.  If a separate license agreement is entered into between Accusoft and LICENSEE at that time, then the terms of that agreement and the Term of that agreement shall govern if different from the terms and Term of this AGREEMENT.  If a separate license agreement is not entered into at that time, then LICENSEE will receive a license certificate with the license codes.  That license certificate governs LICENSEE’s rights as to use, copying, and distribution.  The terms of that license certificate and the Term of that license certificate shall govern if different from the terms and Term of this AGREEMENT.

 

5.         Error and Usage Reporting.  LICENSEE acknowledges that Program may include an Error and Usage Reporting mechanism that may automatically exchange error and usage information with an Accusoft server or servers over the Internet when a connection to the Internet is available.

 

6.         Ownership.  LICENSEE acknowledges and agrees that Accusoft owns all right, title and interest in the Program, in all forms, including without limitation any and all worldwide proprietary rights therein, including but not limited to trademarks, copyrights, patent rights, patent continuations, trade secrets and confidential information.

 

7.         Restrictions and Reservations.  All rights and licenses not expressly granted to LICENSEE are reserved to Accusoft.  LICENSEE shall not disassemble, decompile, decrypt or reverse engineer (except reverse engineering for the purpose of debugging modifications made by LICENSEE to LGPL-licensed portions of the Program, if any) the Program or in any manner attempt to discover or reproduce the source code or any other copyrightable aspect of the Program, or any portion thereof.  With an Evaluation Mode Limited License:

a.  LICENSEE is strictly prohibited from reproducing, copying, marketing, selling, distributing, licensing, sublicensing, leasing, timesharing or renting the Program or any component thereof, and

13.       Injunctive Relief.  LICENSEE agrees that any violation or threat of violation of this Agreement will result in irreparable harm to Accusoft for which damages would be an inadequate remedy.  Therefore, in addition to its rights and remedies available at law (including but not limited to the recovery of damages for breach of this Agreement), Accusoft shall be entitled to immediate injunctive relief to prevent any violation of Accusoft’s copyright, trademark, trade secret rights regarding the Program, or any violation of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, unauthorized use, copying, distribution or disclosure of or regarding the Program, as well as any other equitable relief as the court may deem proper under the circumstances.

16.       Attorneys’ Fees and Costs.  In the event of any lawsuit or other proceeding brought as a result of any actual or alleged breach of this Agreement, to enforce any provisions of this Agreement, or to enforce any intellectual property or other rights in or pertaining to the Program, the prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, including the costs of any expert witnesses, incurred at all levels of proceedings.

18.       Severability.  If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid by any court of final jurisdiction, then it shall be omitted and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue to be binding and enforceable. In addition, the Court is hereby authorized to enforce any provision of the Agreement that the Court otherwise deems unenforceable, to whatever lesser extent the Court deems reasonable and appropriate, rather than invalidating the entire provision.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, LICENSEE expressly agrees that should LICENSEE be found to have breached the Agreement, under no circumstances shall LICENSEE be entitled to any volume or other discount, or reduced licensing fee or royalty in the determination of Accusoft’s damages, or otherwise in the determination of any licensing fee or royalty owed to Accusoft.
