TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SOFTWARE LICENSE
1. GRANT OF LICENSE; USE RESTRICTIONS. In consideration for
the payment of a license fee, ESP grants to LICENSEE a
personal, nontransferable (except as provided below) and
nonexclusive right to use the SOFTWARE on one (1) computer
system, solely for LICENSEE's internal business purposes.
LICENSEE agrees that it shall not reverse compile or
disassemble any portion of the SOFTWARE not already
provided by ESP in source code form.
2. OWNERSHIP OF SOFTWARE. LICENSEE agrees that no title to
the SOFTWARE, or the intellectual property in any of the
SOFTWARE, or in any SOFTWARE copy, is transferred to
LICENSEE, and that all rights not expressly granted to

not a sale of the original SOFTWARE or any copy thereof.
3. TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS. If LICENSEE transfers ownership, or
otherwise disposes, of a computer system for which a
license for the SOFTWARE was purchased, provided that
the transferee agrees to accept the terms and conditions

all licenses and rights in SOFTWARE granted under this
AGREEMENT to such transferee, provided that all SOFTWARE
copies are also transferred.
4. DISCLOSURE RESTRICTIONS. LICENSEE agrees to not disclose
or otherwise disseminate software licensing information,
including the so-called "license key" provided to LICENSEE
by ESP, to third parties other than ESP or its official
distributors. Should LICENSEE violate this restriction,
LICENSEE shall comply with the termination clause of this
license and pay a penalty fee of $1000 US per offense or
$100,000 US, whichever is greater. This restriction does
not apply if the license is being transferred according to
the rules in paragraph 3.
5. TERMINATION. If licensee fails to fulfill any of
LICENSEE's material obligations under this AGREEMENT, ESP
may, at any time thereafter, and in addition to any other
available remedies, terminate this AGREEMENT and all
licenses and rights granted to LICENSEE under this
AGREEMENT. Upon termination of this AGREEMENT, LICENSEE
shall, within thirty (30) days after termination, deliver
to ESP all removable media and documentation containing
the SOFTWARE, and shall render unusable all copies of the
SOFTWARE placed in any storage apparatus.
6. GOVERNING LAW. This License is governed by the laws of the
State of Maryland, U.S.A., excluding choice of law rules.
If any part of this License is found to be in conflict
with the law, that part shall be interpreted in its
broadest meaning consistent with the law, and no other
parts of the License shall be affected.

RESTRICTED RIGHTS. If you are a unit or agency of the

any such unit or agency, the following applies:
If the unit or agency is the Department of Defense

LIMITED WARRANTY AND DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY; LIMITATION OF
LIABILITY
ESP warrants that it has the authority and right to license the
SOFTWARE, and that the SOFTWARE will conform to the material
printed specifications therefore which are in effect on the date
of original delivery of such SOFTWARE. ESP's warranty and
obligation shall extend for a period of ninety (90) days after
the date of the original delivery of SOFTWARE to LICENSEE by
ESP, and is solely for the benefit of LICENSEE, who has no
authority to assign or pass through this warranty to any other
person or entity.
Except as provided in this Section, the SOFTWARE is provided to
LICENSEE on an "AS IS" basis, and ESP makes no other warranty of
any kind, express or implied, with regard to the SOFTWARE
licensed hereunder. ESP warrants that the SOFTWARE properly
processes date and time information between the years 1970 and
2038. ESP does not warrant or represent that the SOFTWARE will
operate uninterrupted or error free or that all defects in the
SOFTWARE are correctable or will be corrected. This warranty
shall not apply if SOFTWARE is used other than in accordance
with ESP's written instructions, or if any of LICENSEE's
hardware equipment or other software malfunctions. ESP's entire
liability and LICENSEE's exclusive remedy for any defects in the
SOFTWARE shall be to obtain ESP's SOFTWARE updates via the
Internet or pay a media update fee for each copy of the
SOFTWARE.
THE FORGOING WARRANTIES ARE IN LIEU OF, AND ESP DISCLAIMS, ALL
OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Some states do not allow the exclusion of
implied warranties, so the exclusion above may not apply to
LICENSEE. This warranty gives LICENSEE specific legal rights,
and LICENSEE may have other rights which vary from state to
state.
IN NO EVENT SHALL ESP OR ESP'S LICENSORS BE LIABLE TO LICENSEE
FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES
OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOSS OF PROFITS OR
DATA AND PERSONAL INJURY), WHETHER OR NOT ESP HAS BEEN ADVISED
OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS, HOWEVER CAUSED AND ON ANY
THEORY OF LIABILITY, ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT. THESE
LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF THE
ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY. In no event will ESP be
liable for any claim against LICENSEE by a third party, and
LICENSEE hereby agrees to indemnify and hold ESP harmless for
any claims for cost, damage, expense or liability arising out of
or in connection with the installation, use and performance of
the SOFTWARE licensed hereunder, whether alone or in combination
with any other product or service. Some states do not allow the
limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or
consequential damages, so the limitation above may not apply to
LICENSEE.
