VISUAL
OBJECT MODELERS SOFTWARE LICENSE:
1. GRANT OF LICENSE. Visual Object Modelers, Inc. (the
"COMPANY") grants a single user (the “USER”) the right to use one
copy of the software product (the "SOFTWARE") on a single terminal or
workstation. You may use the SOFTWARE
on a computer network (any combination of two or more terminals that are
electronically linked and capable of sharing the use of a single copy of a
software program) provided you have purchased and dedicated at least one copy
of the SOFTWARE product for each user of the SOFTWARE on the network. The
SOFTWARE may not be shared by multiple USERs except in the scenario whereby the
SOFTWARE is installed on a workstation for use by more than one USER, provided
that the SOFTWARE is not in use by more than one USER at a time. A USER may
install the SOFTWARE on more than workstation (for example: an in-office
desktop PC and a traveling laptop PC) provided it is used only by that USER and
that it is not in use on more than workstation at any moment in time.
2. MULTI-USER AND SITE LICENSE.
For the purchase of multiple licenses of the SOFTWARE, either as a result of
purchasing multiple copies of the SOFTWARE or a multi-user license (including a
site license), this agreement shall apply to each distinct license
purchased. In this case, the SOFTWARE
may be used by as many users and/or on as many workstations as specified in the
provided contract, bill of sale or invoice. In the case of an unlimited site or
user license, there is no restriction on the number of users and/or
workstations that the SOFTWARE can be installed and used on, with the exception
that the SOFTWARE may only be used by USERs within the company/organization
that purchased the site license.
3. OWNERSHIP and COPYRIGHT. The SOFTWARE is owned by COMPANY and is
licensed to you. It is not sold. The SOFTWARE is protected by United States
copyright laws and international treaty provisions. Therefore, you must treat the SOFTWARE like any other copyright
protected material (e.g., a book or musical recording) except that you may
either (a) make one copy solely for backup or archival purposes or (b) transfer
the SOFTWARE to a single hard disk provided you keep the original solely for
backup or archival purposes. You must
have only one working copy at a time for each copy of the SOFTWARE licensed to
you. You may not copy the written
materials accompanying the SOFTWARE.
You must honor the copyright restrictions that apply to any materials
provided with the SOFTWARE.
4. OTHER RESTRICTIONS. You may not rent or lease the SOFTWARE, but
you may transfer the SOFTWARE and all accompanying original distribution media
and printed materials on a permanent basis provided you retain no copies and
the recipient agrees to the terms of this Agreement. If the SOFTWARE is an update, any transfer must include the
update and all prior versions. You may
not reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or modify the SOFTWARE. You may not attempt to bypass the copy
protection, unlock mechanism, serial number scheme, etc. of the SOFTWARE. You may not publish the unlock code/key or
serial number of the SOFTWARE for use by others. You may not use the SOFTWARE on a perpetual or continuous basis
without the use of a legally obtained unlock code/key or serial number.
5. MULTIPLE MEDIA SOFTWARE. If the SOFTWARE package contains a
combination of floppy disks, CD-ROM, Zip disk, or tape cartridge (the
"DISTRIBUTION MEDIA") then you may use only the MEDIA appropriate for
your single-user computer or network file server. You may not use the other MEDIA on another computer or computer
network, or loan, rent, lease, or transfer them to another user except as part
of the permanent transfer (as provided above) of all SOFTWARE and written
materials.
LIMITED
WARRANTY
1. LIMITED WARRANTY. COMPANY warrants that the SOFTWARE has been
accurately recorded on the MEDIA and that the MEDIA contains no known defects. If you return any MEDIA that does not meet
this warranty to the place that you obtained them from within 90 days from the
date of shipment, the COMPANY or its authorized dealer will replace the MEDIA
without charge. This is your only
remedy for breach of warranty. You
assume all risks with respect to the accuracy, quality, reliability, and
performance of the SOFTWARE and accompanying materials. Any implied warranties are limited to 90
days. Some states do not allow
limitations on duration of an implied warranty, so the above limitation may not
apply to you.
2. NO OTHER WARRANTIES OR
REMEDIES. COMPANY disclaims all other
warranties and remedies, either express or implied, including but not limited
to, implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose,
with respect to the SOFTWARE and the accompanying written materials. This limited warranty gives you specific
legal rights. You may have others that
may vary from state to state.
3. NO LIABILITY FOR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. In no event
shall COMPANY or its suppliers be liable for any damages whatsoever (including,
without limitation, damages for loss of business profits, business
interruption, loss of or damage to business information, or other pecuniary
loss) arising out of the use of or inability to use the SOFTWARE, even if
COMPANY has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Because some states do not allow the
exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages,
the above limitation may not apply to you.
