This license is not a sale. The Software may contain open source or third-party software, subject to separate license terms. Acknowledgements, licensing terms and disclaimers for such materials are contained in the Documentation, and your use of such material is governed by their respective terms and not by the License.
3. OWNERSHIP.
Apposite and its licensors retain ownership of all intellectual property rights in and to the Software and Documentation, including any copies, improvements, enhancements, derivative works and modifications thereof. The Software and Documentation are protected by United States and international copyright and other intellectual property laws and international trade provisions. Your rights to use the Software and Documentation are limited to those expressly granted by this Agreement. No other rights with respect to the Software or any related intellectual property rights are granted or implied.
4. RESTRICTIONS.
Except as otherwise expressly provided under this Agreement, you shall not directly or authorize any third party to:
a. copy the Software, except as necessary for archival or backup purposes only;
b. transfer, assign, sublicense, rent, lease, lend, or otherwise transfer your license rights to any other person or entity;

f. remove, alter, cover or obfuscate any of the trademarks, trade names, logos, patent or copyright notices or markings, or add any other notices or markings to or on the Software, Documentation, or Hardware without the express written authorization of Apposite.
5. SUPPORT.
Apposite shall have no obligation to support the Software except as provided in Apposite’s Customer Support Terms and Conditions, which is incorporated by reference into this Agreement.
6. LIMITED WARRANTY.
Apposite warrants that, for the duration of the Warranty Period, the Hardware will be free of any defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and the Software will perform substantially in accordance with the Documentation. This limited warranty extends only to the original user of the Product. This limited warranty is void if failure of the Hardware or Software to conform to the warranty has resulted from improper installation, testing, misuse, neglect, accident, fire or other hazard, a virus, or any breach of this Agreement. Apposite and its suppliers’ entire liability and your sole and exclusive remedy shall be, at Apposite’s sole discretion, to: (i) repair the Software or Hardware; (ii) provide replacement Hardware or Software; or (iii) refund the purchase price and terminate this Agreement. This limited warranty applies only if the Product is returned to Apposite, freight and insurance prepaid, in accordance with Apposite’s Return Material Authorization (RMA) procedures. Any repaired or replaced Software or Hardware will be subject to this same limited warranty for the remainder of the original Warranty Period or thirty (30) days, whichever is greater. THE FOREGOING LIMITED WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND APPOSITE DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF TITLE, NONINFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THIS WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS WHICH VARY BY JURISDICTION.
7. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
REGARDLESS WHETHER ANY REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, IN NO EVENT WILL APPOSITE OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF INFORMATION, OR OTHER INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES HOWEVER CAUSED AND REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY OR WHETHER ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE PRODUCT AND EVEN IF APPOSITE OR ITS SUPPLIERS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL APPOSITE OR ITS SUPPLIERS’ LIABILITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF WARRANTY, OR OTHERWISE, EXCEED THE PRICE PAID FOR THE PRODUCT. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. YOU HEREBY WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH SAYS “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH, IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

You may terminate it at any time by destroying all copies of the Software and Documentation in your possession.

In addition, the provisions of the sections “U.S. Government Restricted Rights” and “Export” shall survive termination of this Agreement.
