you will not utilize and will not authorize anyone to utilize, in any
other manner, the Software in violation of any applicable law. The

infringing manner or in any manner which violates any law or third
party right and you shall not distribute the Software together with
any material which infringes against any third party right or which
is libelous, defamatory, obscene, false, misleading, or otherwise
illegal or unlawful. ID reserves all rights not granted in this
Agreement, including, without limitation, all rights to IDâs
trademarks. You shall not commercially distribute the Software.
b. You shall not create any New Creations which infringe against
any third party right or which are libelous, defamatory, obscene,
false, misleading or otherwise illegal or unlawful. You agree that
the New Creations will not be shipped, transferred or exported into
any country in violation of the U.S. Export Administration Act
(or any other law governing such matters) by you or anyone at your
direction and that you will not utilize and will not authorize
anyone to utilize, in any other manner, the New Creations in
violation of any applicable law. The New Creations shall not be
downloaded or otherwise exported or re-exported into (or to a
national or resident of) any country to which the U.S. has embargoed
goods or to anyone or into any country who/which are prohibited,
by applicable law, from receiving such property. You shall not
rent, sell, lease, lend, offer on a pay-per-play basis or otherwise
commercially exploit or commercially distribute the New Creations.
You are only permitted to distribute, without any cost or
charge, the New Creations to other end-users so long as such
distribution is not infringing against any third party right and is
not otherwise illegal or unlawful. As noted below, in the event you
commercially distribute or commercial exploit the New Creations or
commit any other breach of this Agreement, your licenses, and this
Agreement, shall automatically terminate, without notice.
4. Intellectual Property Rights. The Software and all copyrights,
trademarks and all other conceivable intellectual property rights
related to the Software are owned by ID and are protected by
United States copyright laws, international treaty provisions and all
applicable law, such as the Lanham Act. You must treat the Software
like any other copyrighted material, as required by 17 U.S.C. §101 et
seq. and other applicable law. You agree to use your best efforts to
see that any user of the Software licensed hereunder complies with
this Agreement. You agree that you are receiving a copy of the
Software by license only and not by sale and that the âfirst saleâ
doctrine of 17 U.S.C. §109 does not apply to your receipt or use of
the Software.
5. NO WARRANTIES. ID DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WITH RESPECT
TO THE SOFTWARE. ID DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE OPERATION OF THE
SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE OR THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL
MEET YOUR SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS. ADDITIONAL STATEMENTS, WHETHER ORAL
OR WRITTEN, DO NOT CONSTITUTE WARRANTIES BY ID AND SHOULD NOT BE
RELIED UPON. THIS SECTION 5. SHALL SURVIVE CANCELLATION OR TERMINATION
OF THIS AGREEMENT.
6. Governing Law, Venue, Indemnity and Liability Limitation. This
Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the
applicable laws of the State of Texas and applicable United States
federal law. Copyright and other proprietary matters will be governed
by United States laws and international treaties. Exclusive venue for
all litigation regarding this Agreement shall be in Dallas County,
Texas and you agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts in
Dallas, Texas for any such litigation. You agree to indemnify, defend
and hold harmless ID and IDâs officers, employees, directors, agents,
licensees (excluding you), successors and assigns from and against all
losses, lawsuits, damages, causes of action and claims relating to
and/or arising from: (i) your breach of this Agreement; and/or (ii)
your distribution or other use of the Software; and/or (iii) your
distribution or other use of the New Creations. You agree that your
unauthorized use of the Software, or any part thereof, may immediately
and irreparably damage ID such that ID could not be adequately
compensated solely by a monetary award and that at IDâs option ID
shall be entitled to an injunctive order, in addition to all other
available remedies including a monetary award, appropriately
restraining and/or prohibiting such unauthorized use without the
necessity of ID posting bond or other security. IN ANY CASE, ID AND
IDâS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, DIRECTORS, AGENTS, LICENSEES, SUBLICENSEES,
SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF
PROFITS, LOST SAVINGS, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT,
PUNITIVE OR OTHER SIMILAR DAMAGES ARISING FROM ANY ALLEGED CLAIM FOR
BREACH OF WARRANTY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT PRODUCT
LIABILITY, OR OTHER LEGAL THEORY EVEN IF ID OR ITS AGENTS HAVE BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR EVEN IF SUCH DAMAGES
ARE FORESEEABLE, OR LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM BY ANY OTHER PARTY. Some
jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental
or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may
not apply to you. This Section 6. shall survive cancellation or
termination of this Agreement.
7. U.S. Government Restricted Rights. To the extent applicable, the
United States Government shall only have those rights to use the
Software as expressly stated and expressly limited and restricted in
this Agreement, as provided in 48 C.F.R. §§ 227.7201 through 227.7204,
inclusive.
8. General Provisions. Neither this Agreement nor any part or portion
hereof shall be assigned or sublicensed by you. ID may assign its
rights under this Agreement in IDâs sole discretion. Should any
provision of this Agreement be held to be void, invalid, unenforceable
or illegal by a court of competent jurisdiction, the validity and
enforceability of the other provisions shall not be affected thereby.
If any provision is determined to be unenforceable by a court of
competent jurisdiction, you agree to a modification of such provision
to provide for enforcement of the provision's intent, to the extent
permitted by applicable law. Failure of ID to enforce any provision
of this Agreement shall not constitute or be construed as a waiver of
such provision or of the right to enforce such provision. Immediately
upon your failure to comply with, or immediately upon your breach of,
any term or provision of this Agreement, THIS AGREEMENT AND YOUR
LICENSE SHALL AUTOMATICALLY TERMINATE, WITHOUT NOTICE, AND ID MAY
PURSUE ALL RELIEF AND REMEDIES AGAINST YOU WHICH ARE AVAILABLE UNDER
APPLICABLE LAW AND/OR THIS AGREEMENT. In the event this Agreement
is terminated, you shall have no right to use the Software, in any
manner, and you shall immediately destroy all copies of the Software
in your possession, custody or control.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT, YOU UNDERSTAND THIS
AGREEMENT, AND UNDERSTAND THAT BY CONTINUING THE INSTALLATION OF THE
SOFTWARE, BY DOWNLOADING, LOADING OR RUNNING THE SOFTWARE, OR BY
PLACING OR COPYING THE SOFTWARE ONTO YOUR COMPUTER HARD DRIVE, COMPUTER
RAM OR OTHER STORAGE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
OF THIS AGREEMENT. YOU FURTHER AGREE THAT, EXCEPT FOR WRITTEN SEPARATE
AGREEMENTS BETWEEN ID AND YOU, THIS AGREEMENT IS A COMPLETE AND
EXCLUSIVE STATEMENT OF THE RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO
REGARDING THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF. THIS AGREEMENT SUPERSEDES ALL
PRIOR ORAL AGREEMENTS OR UNDERSTANDINGS AND ANY OTHER COMMUNICATIONS
BETWEEN ID AND YOU RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT.
