LICENSE

This software program (the "Graphic Remedy Software") and the accompanying files, lists and data (the "Documentation") are licensed, not sold, to you. The term "Graphic Remedy Software" shall also include any updates of the Graphic Remedy Software licensed to you by Graphic Remedy. Other code ("Open Source Software") that is distributed pursuant to an open source license agreement ("Open Source License") is also provided.

You may use the Graphic Remedy Software on a number of computers, in accordance to and not exceeding the number of concurrent installations stated in the purchase order (the "Purchase Order") of the Graphic Remedy Software. The Graphic Remedy Software is "in use" on a computer when it is loaded into the temporary memory (i.e., RAM) or installed into the permanent memory (e.g., hard drive, or other storage device) of that computer. You may also use the Graphic Remedy Software on a portable or home computer.

You agree to use your best efforts to prevent misuse of the Graphic Remedy Software and protect the contents of the Graphic Remedy Software and Documentation from unauthorized disclosure or use. Graphic Remedy reserves all rights not expressly granted to you.

ACADEMIC LICENSE ELIGIBILITY

The Graphic Remedy gDEBugger Software Academic License ("Academic License") is contingent on the eligibility of the Licensee, determined solely by Graphic Remedy, based on Graphic Remedy Academic Licensing Policy, below, and contingent on the continued accuracy of the pertinent information provided by the Licensee. Any determination of academic eligibility, and Graphic Remedy Academic Licensing Policy, including pricing, may be changed at any time without prior notice, at Graphic Remedy's sole discretion.

GRAPHIC REMEDY gDEBUGGER ACADEMIC LICENSING POLICY

  1. GOAL
  2. Graphic Remedy Academic Licensing Policy ("Policy") is designed to foster and support bona fide academic research. To this end Graphic Remedy provides Academic Licenses at reduced cost.

  3. ACADEMIC MEANS NON-COMMERCIAL
  4. Graphic Remedy issues Academic Licenses for non-commercial use only. Graphic Remedy recognizes the complexity and diversity of academic and commercial activities among nominally academic and commercial organizations, and will endeavor to support academics as much as possible without compromising Graphic Remedy's commercial interests. Not all university research groups are eligible. Research groups not at universities may be eligible.

  5. ACADEMIC MEANS PUBLIC RESULTS
  6. Academic Licenses are intended only for research from which any resulting intellectual property remains in the public domain. Research done with the software which is intended to lead to a patent, a commercial product or for which any of the resulting intellectual property is expected to be held by or licensed to a private corporation, requires a standard (commercial) license, regardless of the nature of the institution at which the research is completed.

  7. SCOPE OF ELIGIBILITY
  8. Graphic Remedy will determine academic License eligibility on a research group specific case basis. Thus, eligibility may differ among distinct research groups within a single institution, and Academic Licenses will only apply to the research group of a specific individual ("Principle Investigator"). Eligibility is not permanent; eligibility will be reevaluated periodically, and Academic Licenses may be terminated at the sole discretion of Graphic Remedy.

  9. CHANGES TO POLICY
  10. Graphic Remedy reserves the right to change its academic licensing policy at any time, at its sole discretion, without prior notice. If any such changes are unacceptable to the Licensee, the Academic License shall be immediately terminated.

WHEN ACADEMIC BECOMES COMMERCIAL

In cases where a research project is represented as academic, in good faith or otherwise, for which an Academic License is used, and any data, intellectual property or products resulting from the research project are subsequently commercialized, the Academic License agreement will have been breached. Since the Software has been used for commercial purposes, the Licensee agrees to compensate Graphic Remedy based on the commercial list prices of the Software at the time the Academic License was executed.
