mean (i) the software with the object code, the version and the specification
indicated in the software product data sheet of Fsas Technologies Inc.,Fujitsu
Limited or one of their subsidiaries (collectively “Fsas Technologies”) and (ii)

accompanying items to the Licensor/Sub licensor (either Fsas Technologies or
the reseller who supplied you with the Software) with proof of purchase for a
full refund and in case of Firmware you are not permitted to use the Firmware.
1.3.
Any
use of the Software requires the proper payment of the applicable license fees.
By using the Software you agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement.
1.4.
Fsas
Technologies reserves the right to implement at any time in the future an
additional software license key and/or license certificates as countermeasures
against software piracy.
1.5.
Software
components from third-party software suppliers which are part of the scope of
the delivery are subject to separate license agreements that are included with
the Software or that are transmitted by Fsas Technologies upon request.
2.1.
Fsas
Technologies grants you a non-exclusive and non-transferable license to use the
Software on the number of workstations for which you have purchased licenses.
Unless you purchase additional licenses, you are not permitted to operate the
Software on more than the maximum number of licensed workstations or on
hardware that exceeds the specified type.
You are permitted to make a backup copy of the Software for archiving purposes,
provided you properly mark the copy or partial copy of the Software with the
copyright notice and any other ownership information.
2.2.
You
are not permitted to copy, modify or distribute the Software. Furthermore, you
are not permitted to re-compile, re-engineer, convert, revise, compile or
modify the Software. You may not sub-license, without selling the related
hardware, assign, rent, lease or transfer the Software except as expressly
permitted by this agreement or due to mandatory legal regulations.
2.3.
If
you acquired the Software as a program upgrade, your license for the use of the
old software version ends automatically with the installation of the upgrade
version of the Software. If parts of the old software version are not replaced
by the upgrade version, the license for the old version continues to be
effective until the remnants of the old software version are also replaced or
deactivated or shut down in any other way.
2.4.
Unless
specified otherwise in the respective software data sheet of Fsas Technologies,
the license for a software version or release does not give you any rights to
new releases (updates), new versions (upgrades) or technical support services
for the Software. Supplemental software support contracts and maintenance
services, including or excluding new releases and new versions and additional
technical support services, can be purchased separately either from Fsas
Technologies directly or from authorized software resellers.
2.5.
In
case expressly permitted under the Documentation, you may embed the whole or
part of the Software into your software program in accordance with the terms
and conditions described in the Documentation.
For Software supplied by Fsas
Technologies over a network or a similar distribution path, the following
additional conditions shall apply:
All products supplied for
downloading by Fsas Technologies are selected, made available and — if supplied
by third parties — provided without modification. However, you are fully
responsible for ensuring the most current version and usability of downloadable
material for your own purposes and on your own system. You download Software at
your own risk. Fsas Technologies will not accept any liability, particularly
not for transmission errors or problems that arise during the downloading
process (line failures, connection interruptions, server failures, data
corruption, etc.).
The website of Fsas Technologies
is operated and administered only for those countries in which Fsas
Technologies has one or more offices. Fsas Technologies accepts no
responsibility that Software and/or documentation can or may be downloaded from
a Fsas Technologies website also in locations other than the countries
mentioned above. If you access a website of Fsas Technologies from abroad, you
are fully responsible for complying with any local regulations. Fsas
Technologies expressly prohibits the downloading of Software and/or
documentation from a Fsas Technologies website in countries where such
downloading is considered illegal.
All rights and licenses, unless
they are expressly granted to you in this license terms, as well as all
property and usage rights related to the Software (including parts of the
Software) remain fully with Fsas Technologies and/or its third-party licensors.
The license terms do not
authorize you to use the brands, logos or trademarks of Fsas Technologies or
its third-party licensors, nor are you permitted to use any other brands which
are deceptively similar to the brands, logos or trademarks of Fsas Technologies.
Each and any use of brands, logos or trademarks with respect to the Software or
Fsas Technologies requires the express consent of Fsas Technologies.
If you acquire the Software
directly from an authorized reseller (called “Reseller”), the right to install
and use the Software may be subject to additional software license conditions
agreed upon between you as the licensee and the respective reseller.
In all cases of an authorized
software resale, the software is sublicensed and made available to the licensee
directly by the Reseller. In such cases, Fsas Technologies is not a contractual
party of the software license agreement between you, as licensee and the
Reseller, as far as the procurement of the software licenses are concerned.
Legal claims in connection with the software licensing can therefore be
asserted only on the basis of the agreements with the Reseller. Under no
circumstances, however, will the respective scope of the license for the
licensee exceed the scope of the license agreements as specified in sections 1,
2, 3 and 4 of this agreement.
Subject to mandatory legal
regulations, particularly those governing liability and/or warranties, which
cannot be excluded in connection with end user license agreement regulations
and with reference to the licensee’s claims against the Reseller, Fsas
Technologies disclaims all warranties for the Software in this agreement. For
the same reason, Fsas Technologies disclaims any and all liability/claims for
any violations of third parties’ rights as well as any implied warranties for
the software’s marketability and its suitability for a particular purpose. This
disclaimer of liability does not apply in cases of willful or malicious
behavior by Fsas Technologies.
In this End User License
Agreement, Fsas Technologies grants no warranties of any kind, either express
or implied.
6.1.
The
Software may contain freeware or shareware which Fsas Technologies received
from a third party. Fsas Technologies paid no license fees for the use of this
freeware or shareware. Accordingly, the licensee is not charged any license
fees for the use of the freeware or shareware. You recognize and accept that Fsas
Technologies therefore grants no warranties with respect to such freeware or
shareware components and does not assume any liability in connection with the
ownership, the distribution and/or the use of the respective freeware or
shareware.
6.2.
The
Software may also contain open source software components that were developed
according to the “open source model” and which are distributed exclusively on
the basis of the GPL (General Public License:
http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html) terms and conditions or other standard
open source standard license terms and conditions applicable to the respective
open source components at the time of their dissemination. You recognize and
accept that the licensing of such open source software components is governed
exclusively by the above-mentioned GPL terms or by the conditions which are
otherwise included with the open source software components. Fsas Technologies
receives neither license fees nor any other compensation for the delivered open
source software components. As far as Fsas Technologies or a third party
receives any compensation in connection with open source software components,
it is received exclusively for additional delivery items and/or services.
Because of the special nature of the development and distribution of open
source software components, Fsas Technologies assumes no express or implied
liability for such components and excludes any kind of warranty for such open
source software components, particularly in connection with missing
specifications, lack of functionality, programming errors or any other malfunctions.
7.1.
Neither
Fsas Technologies nor its suppliers are liable for any consequential or
indirect damages, including damages arising as a result of or in connection
with an operational interruption, lost profits or sales, lost data, or costs of
capital. Fsas Technologies and its suppliers will not be liable for additional
ancillary or consequential costs or for any other losses, costs or expenses of
any kind which arise as a result of the holding, sale, use or impossibility of
use of the Software, independent of whether such claims are asserted due to
warranty rights, contracts, tort or any other legal theory.
7.2.
The
liability of Fsas Technologies for direct damage caused as a result of a
contract violation and/or other action or lapse on the part of Fsas
Technologies which have not been excluded or cannot be completely excluded due
to mandatory law are limited to no more than $300,000.00. Any and all other
liabilities for direct damage are excluded. Damage caused by Fsas Technologies
as a result of slight negligence are excluded to the extent permitted by
applicable legal regulations.
7.3.
Limitations
and exclusions of liability resulting from this agreement do not apply to
damage where Fsas Technologies carries compulsory liability according to
applicable laws and where such liability cannot be limited to a maximum amount
(for example, liability for bodily damage; product liability or fraudulently
incorrect information).
7.4.

acknowledge and agree that the Software is designed, developed and manufactured
as contemplated for general use, including without limitation, general office
use, personal use, household use, and ordinary industrial use, but is not

the nature or purpose of these components, the export of the Software and/or
its accompanying documents may be subject to official or regulatory approval.
In cases where the Software is intended for export, you are obliged to get all
approvals and authorizations required to comply with all relevant export
regulations.
The Software may not be exported
if there is reason to assume that the Software will be used in connection with
nuclear, chemical or biological weapons or for missile technology. Furthermore,
you may not deliver the Software — or have it delivered indirectly — to such
companies or persons who are listed in the applicable U.S. export regulations
(particularly the Table of Denial Orders/U.S. Denied Persons Lists (DPL) or in
the E.U. export regulations (particularly the EU Terrorist List) or in the
applicable warnings issued by Japan export authorities or any other competent
authorities in any country.
Under no circumstances is Fsas
Technologies obligated to deliver software, patches, updates or upgrades, to
provide software for download or to fulfill any other contractual commitments
if this would be a violation of the applicable export regulations of Japan, the
European Union, and the United States of America or of any other countries.
If you export or re-export the
Software or a copy of it, this may be a violation of applicable export laws and
a severe violation of the terms of this agreement.
9.1.
If
any term or condition in this agreement or any other contract that is subject
to the terms and conditions of this agreement turns out to be invalid or
unenforceable (partly or in full), the validity of all other terms and
conditions remains unaffected, unless complying with the remaining terms and
conditions would represent an unreasonable hardship for either contract party,
even with the application of applicable legal regulations to close the legal
gap.
9.2.
If
you/ the licensee do not pay the license fees due and/or if the licensee does
not comply with essential terms and conditions of this license agreement, Fsas
Technologies reserves the right to cancel the license. In case of such
cancellation, you must immediately return any and all copies of the software in
your possession and confirm the complete return [of the software copies] or the
destruction of these copies in writing and you shall cease to use the Firmware immediately.

are only valid if they are made in writing.

not unreasonably interfere with your business activities.
