READ THIS END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT CAREFULLY. BY DOWNLOADING OR INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, DO NOT DOWNLOAD OR INSTALL THE SOFTWARE AND RETURN IT TO THE VENDOR FROM WHICH IT WAS PURCHASED.
Upon your acceptance as indicated above, the following shall govern your use of the Software except to the extent all or any portion of the Software (a) is subject to a separate written agreement, or (b) is provided by a third party under the terms set forth in an Addenda at the end of this Agreement, in which case the terms of such addenda shall control over inconsistent terms with regard to such portion(s).
License Grant. The Software is the property of TIBCO or its licensors and is protected by copyright and other laws. While TIBCO continues to own the Software, TIBCO hereby grants to Customer a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive, license to use the number of Permitted Instances set forth in the Ordering Document, in machine-readable, object code form and solely for Customer's internal business use.
Restrictions. Customer agrees not to (a) make more copies than the number of Permitted Instances plus a reasonable number of backups; (b) provide access to the Software to anyone other than employees, contractors, or consultants of Customer; (c) sublicense, transfer, assign, distribute to any third party, pledge, lease, rent, or commercially share the Software or any of Customer's rights under this Agreement (for the purposes of the foregoing a change in control of Licensee is deemed to be an assignment); (d) use the Software for purposes of providing a service bureau, including, without limitation, providing third-party hosting, or third-party application integration or application service provider-type services, or any similar services; (e) use the Software in connection with ultrahazardous activities, or any activity for which failure of the Software might result in death or serious bodily injury to Customer or a third party; or (f) directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, modify, translate, reverse engineer, decrypt, decompile, disassemble, make error corrections to, create derivative works based on, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code or underlying ideas or algorithms of the Software.
Beta and Evaluation Licenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Software is being provided for demonstration, beta testing, or evaluation purposes, then Customer agrees (a) to use the Software solely for such purposes, (b) that the Software will not be used or deployed in a production environment, and (c) that such use shall automatically terminate upon the earlier of thirty days from the date Customer receives the right to install the Software, or Customer's receipt of notice of termination from TIBCO.
Technical Support. Provided Customer has paid applicable support fees (not included with Software fees unless separately listed), TIBCO shall provide support for generally available TIBCO Software on an annual basis commencing on the Purchase Date, as follows ("Support"): Customer shall designate at TIBCO's support website https://support.tibco.com/eSupport/newuser.html, the number of technical support contacts permitted under the level of Support purchased (contacts are changeable upon 48-hours prior written notice to TIBCO). Each contact may contact TIBCO for problem resolution during TIBCO's published support hours corresponding to the level of Support fees paid.
Upon notice from a contact of a Software problem which can be reproduced at a TIBCO support facility or via remote access to Customer's facility, TIBCO shall use reasonable efforts to correct or circumvent the problem according to its published support objectives. TIBCO reserves the right to make changes only to the most currently available version. TIBCO will use reasonable efforts to support the previously released version of the Software for a maximum of six months.
TIBCO shall have no obligation to support the Software (i) for use on any computer system running other than the operating system software for which the Software is approved (as set forth in the Software documentation) and licensed hereunder, or (ii) if Customer has modified or authorized a third party to modify the Software. TIBCO shall have no obligation to modify any version of the Software to run with any new versions of any operating system, or any other third party software or hardware. If Customer purchases Support for any Software, Customer must purchase the same level of Support for all copies of the Software for which it is licensed.
Support may be extended for one-year periods on the anniversary of each Purchase Date at the standard amounts set forth in its price list, for as long as TIBCO offers Support. Customer may reinstate lapsed support for any then currently supported Software by paying all Support fees in arrears and any applicable reinstatement fee. Upgrades, patches, enhancements, bug fixes, new versions and/or new releases of the Software provided from time to time under Support shall be used only as replacements to existing Permitted Instances, and shall not be deemed to increase that number, and use thereof shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement, except for the first paragraph of the Limited Warranty and any right of return or refund.
Consulting Services. Customer may request additional services ("Services") either in an Ordering Document, or by a separate mutually executed work order, statement of work or other work-request document incorporating this Agreement (each, a "Work Order"). Unless otherwise expressly agreed to in a Work Order, all Services and any work product therefrom shall be (a) performed on a time and materials basis, plus meals, lodging, travel, and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection therewith, (b) deemed accepted upon delivery, and (c) exclusively owned by TIBCO (except for confidential information of Customer identified to TIBCO in the Ordering Document), including all right, title and intellectual property or other right or interest therein. Each Work Order is intended to constitute an independent and distinct agreement of the parties, notwithstanding that each shall be construed to incorporate all applicable provisions of this Agreement. Specific to TIBCO training services, additional information regarding courses, registration, restrictions or limitation can be found at TIBCO's website at http://www.tibco.com/services/education under Education Programs. Fees for Services shall be due and payable in United States dollars net 30 from the date of TIBCO's invoice.
Limited Warranty. If Customer obtained the Software directly from TIBCO, then TIBCO warrants that for a period of thirty (30) days from the Purchase Date: (i) the media on which the Software is furnished will be free of defects in materials and workmanship under normal use; and (ii) the Software will substantially conform to its published specifications. This limited warranty extends only to the original Customer hereunder. Customer's sole and exclusive remedy and the entire liability of TIBCO and its licensors under this limited warranty will be, at TIBCO's option, repair, replacement, or refund of the Software and applicable Support fees, in which event this Agreement shall terminate upon payment thereof.
This warranty does not apply to any Software which (a) is licensed for beta, evaluation, testing or demonstration purposes for which TIBCO does not receive a license fee, (b) has been altered or modified, except by TIBCO, (c) has not been installed, operated, repaired, or maintained in accordance with instructions supplied by TIBCO, (d) has been subjected to abnormal physical or electrical stress, misuse, negligence, or accident, or (e) is used in violation of any other term of this Agreement. Customer agrees to pay TIBCO for any Support or Services provided by TIBCO related to a breach of the foregoing on a time, materials, travel, lodging and other reasonable expenses basis. If Customer obtained the Software from a TIBCO reseller or distributor, the terms of any warranty shall be as provided by such reseller or distributor, and TIBCO provides Customer no warranty with respect to such Software.
EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY, THE SOFTWARE, SUPPORT AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS", ALL EXPRESS OR IMPLIED CONDITIONS, REPRESENTATIONS, AND WARRANTIES INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, SATISFACTORY QUALITY OR ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE PRACTICE, ARE HEREBY EXCLUDED TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW. NO WARRANTY IS MADE REGARDING THE RESULTS OF ANY SOFTWARE, SUPPORT OR SERVICES OR THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL OPERATE WITHOUT ERRORS, PROBLEMS OR INTERRUPTIONS, OR THAT ERRORS OR BUGS IN THE SOFTWARE WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT THE SOFTWARE'S FUNCTIONALITY OR SERVICES WILL MEET CUSTOMER'S REQUIREMENTS. NO TIBCO DEALER, DISTRIBUTOR, AGENT OR EMPLOYEE IS AUTHORIZED TO MAKE ANY MODIFICATIONS, EXTENSIONS OR ADDITIONS TO THIS WARRANTY.
Indemnity. If Customer obtained the Software from TIBCO directly, then TIBCO shall indemnify Licensee from and against any final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction, including reasonable attorneys' fees, that the unmodified TIBCO Software infringes any patent issued by the United States, Canada, Australia, Japan, or any member of the European Union, or any copyright, or any trade secret of a third party; provided that TIBCO is promptly notified in writing of such claim, TIBCO has the exclusive right to control such defense and/or settlement, and Licensee shall provide reasonable assistance (at TIBCO's expense) in the defense thereof. In no event shall Licensee settle any claim, action or proceeding without TIBCO's prior written approval. In the event of any such claim, litigation or threat thereof, TIBCO, at its sole option and expense, shall (a) procure for Licensee the right to continue to use the TIBCO Software or (b) replace or modify the TIBCO Software with functionally equivalent software. If such settlement or modification is not commercially reasonable (in the reasonable opinion of TIBCO), TIBCO may cancel this Agreement upon sixty days prior written notice to Licensee, and refund to Licensee the unamortized portion of the license fees paid to TIBCO by Licensee based on a five-year straight-line depreciation. This Section states the entire liability of TIBCO with respect to the infringement of any Intellectual Property rights, and Licensee hereby expressly waives any other liabilities or obligations of TIBCO with respect thereto. The foregoing indemnity shall not apply to the extent any infringement could have been avoided by use of the then-current release.
Limitation of Liability. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED UNDER INDEMNITY OR RESULTING FROM A BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY (THE "EXCLUDED MATTERS"), IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY OR TIBCO'S LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOST DATA, LOST REVENUE, LOST PROFITS, DAMAGE TO REPUTATION, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR ANY OTHER INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR ANY SIMILAR TYPE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, OR THE PROVISION OF ANY SUPPORT OR SERVICES, EVEN IF A PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. EXCEPT FOR THE EXCLUDED MATTERS, IN NO EVENT SHALL A PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING ACTIVE OR PASSIVE NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF WARRANTY, CLAIMS BY THIRD PARTIES OR OTHERWISE, EXCEED THE PRICE PAID BY CUSTOMER UNDER THE APPLICABLE ORDERING DOCUMENT.
THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY EVEN IF THE ABOVE-STATED REMEDY OR LIMITED WARRANTY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. BECAUSE SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO CUSTOMER.
Confidentiality. "Confidential Information" means the terms of this Agreement; all information marked by the disclosing party as proprietary or confidential; any provided software, related documentation or related performance test results derived by Licensee; and any methods, concepts or processes utilized in provided software or related documentation. Confidential Information shall remain the sole property of the disclosing party and shall not be disclosed to any non-Authorized User without the prior written consent of the disclosing party. If Confidential Information is communicated orally, such communication shall be confirmed as "Confidential" in writing within thirty days of such disclosure. The parties agree to protect the Confidential Information of the other in the same manner it protects the confidentiality of similar information and data of its own (and at all times exercising at least a reasonable degree of care). Except with respect to the Software, items will not be deemed Confidential Information if (i) available to the public other than by a breach of an agreement with TIBCO, (ii) rightfully received from a third party not in breach of any obligation of confidentiality, (iii) independently developed by one party without use of the Confidential Information of the other; (iv) known to the recipient at the time of disclosure (other than under a separate confidentiality obligation); or (v) produced in compliance with applicable law or court order, provided the other party is given reasonable notice of the same. Both parties agree to indemnify the other for any damages the other may sustain resulting from their unauthorized use and/or disclosure of the other's Confidential Information. Such damages shall include reasonable expenses incurred in seeking both legal and equitable remedies. To the extent required by law, at Customer's request, TIBCO shall provide Customer with the interface information needed to achieve interoperability between the Software and another independently created program, on payment of TIBCO's applicable fee. Customer agrees to observe obligations of confidentiality with respect to such information.
Export. Software, including technical data, is subject to U.S. export control laws, including the U.S. Export Administration Act and its associated regulations, and may be subject to export or import regulations in other countries. Customer agrees to comply strictly with all such regulations and agrees to obtain all necessary licenses to export, re-export, or import Software.
Government Use. If the Customer is an agency, department, or other entity of the United States Government ("Government"), the use, duplication, reproduction, release, modification, disclosure or transfer of the Software, or any related documentation of any kind, including technical data or manuals, is restricted in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation ("FAR") 12.212 for civilian agencies and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement ("DFARS") 227.7202 for military agencies. The Software is commercial computer software and commercial computer software documentation. Use of the Software and related documentation by the Government is further restricted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and any modification thereto.
Orders. An Ordering Document shall be deemed accepted only by issuance of a TIBCO invoice and solely for purposes of administrative convenience. None of the terms of the Ordering Document (other than the Software product name, number of Permitted Instances, level of Support, description of Services, and fees due in connection therewith) shall apply for any reason or purpose whatsoever, regardless of any statement on any Ordering Document to the contrary, unless countersigned by an officer of TIBCO. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the use of the Software, Support and Services, and supersedes all proposals, oral or written, and all other representations, statements, negotiations and undertakings relating to the subject matter hereof. All orders of Software, Support or Services by Customer from TIBCO shall be deemed to occur under the terms of this Agreement (with or without reference to this Agreement), unless expressly superseded by a signed written Agreement between the parties. Software shall be delivered electronically, and such delivery shall occur when the TIBCO Software is made available for download by Customer. Physical deliveries (as applicable) of Software and documentation which typically accompanies the Software on delivery shall be on CD-ROM, FOB Palo Alto, and delivery shall occur by depositing the CD-ROM with TIBCO's overnight carrier (at no charge to Customer).
Term and Termination. Support or Services may be terminated: (a) by either party upon a default of the other, such default remaining uncured for fifteen days from written notice from the non-defaulting party; (b) upon the filing for bankruptcy or insolvency of the other party, (c) by either party upon prior written notice at least sixty days prior to the end of any annual Maintenance period; or (d) by Licensee (for Services), upon ten days prior written notice. Termination of Support or Services shall not terminate this Agreement. Customer may terminate this Agreement in its entirety at any time by destroying all copies of the Software. Upon termination of this Agreement in its entirety, for any reason, Customer must cease using and return or destroy all copies of the Software. Customer's obligation to pay accrued charges and any fees due as of the date of termination, as well as the sections entitled "Confidentiality", "Limited Warranty" and "Limitation of Liability" shall survive any such termination.
Authority. You hereby represent and warrant that you have full power and authority to accept the terms of this Agreement on behalf of Customer, and that Customer agrees to be bound by this Agreement.
General. Fees on the Ordering Document (all to be paid on the latter of thirty days from Invoice by TIBCO or the date set forth in the Ordering Document) do not include sales, use, withholding, value-added or similar taxes, and Customer agrees to pay the same, excluding therefrom taxes related to TIBCO's income and corporate franchise tax. Customer agree to pay all reasonable costs incurred (including reasonable attorneys' fees) in collecting past due amounts under this Agreement. Except as set forth in the Section entitled Limited "Warranty" all fees paid under or in connection with this Agreement are non-refundable and no right of set-off exists. All payments of fees due shall be made in U.S. dollars, net 30 from Purchase Date, or, for any other amounts coming due hereafter, net 30 from TIBCO's invoice. A service charge of one and one-half percent per month will be applied to all invoices that are not paid on time. Licensee agrees to pay all sales, use, value-added, withholding, excise and any other similar taxes or government charges, exclusive of TIBCO's income taxes. No delay in the performance of any obligation by either party, excepting all obligations to make payment, shall constitute a breach of this Agreement to the extent caused by force majeure. Customer hereby grants TIBCO and its independent auditors the right to audit Customer's compliance with this Agreement. If any portion of this Agreement is found to be void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, United States of America, as if performed wholly within the state and without giving effect to the principles of conflict of law. The state and/or federal courts in San Francisco, California, shall have exclusive jurisdiction of any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is excluded from application hereto. If any portion hereof is found to be void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
