PREAMBLE

This License Agreement (hereinafter referred to as “AGREEMENT”) shall apply to all software products of LICENSOR, including the components thereof as well as all available technology adapters, hereinafter collectively referred to in all cases as “SOFTWARE PRODUCT”. The purpose of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT is to provide a set of simulation tools for beam propagation through optical devices and waveguides. Examples encompass a large variety of propagation scenarios for both bulk and waveguide optics including lenses, gratings, apertures, couplers, splitters, multiplexers, and modulators.

LICENSOR is supplying the SOFTWARE PRODUCT based on the TERMS AND CONDITIONS which constitute integral parts hereof and this AGREEMENT. By installing or using the SOFTWARE PRODUCT, LICENSEE acknowledges that the TERMS AND CONDITIONS of this AGREEMENT shall be binding upon it and are deemed to preclude application of any conflicting general terms and conditions of contract (in particular any terms and conditions of business or procurement) of LICENSEE, and this shall hold true even if LICENSEE has alerted LICENSOR to any such general terms and conditions of contract or LICENSOR fails to expressly object to any conflicting terms and conditions of LICENSEE.

1) OWNERSHIP AND RIGHTS OF USE

Ownership of, and all intellectual or industrial property rights to, the SOFTWARE PRODUCT and the accompanying documentation shall remain exclusively with LICENSOR. LICENSEE hereby acknowledges these ownership and intellectual property rights and shall take no actions, which place LICENSOR’s ownership of or rights to the SOFTWARE PRODUCT and/or to the documentation at risk or which limit or in any way impair them. The SOFTWARE PRODUCT and the accompanying documentation are protected by the copyright acts, the relevant international treaties and copyright treaties. Ownership and rights to the content accessed by means of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT shall remain with the owner in question of such content and are subject to legal protection. The license granted by this AGREEMENT and covered by the TERMS AND CONDITIONS set forth below shall not be deemed to grant any rights to the content. Licensee acknowledges that certain third party software components incorporated in the SOFTWARE PRODUCT may include elements licensed or procured from certain open source libraries.

LICENSOR hereby grants LICENSEE a non-exclusive and non-transferable right to use the SOFTWARE PRODUCT. No acquisition of rights to the SOFTWARE PRODUCT itself is associated therewith. LICENSEE may only use the SOFTWARE PRODUCT for its own purposes and may not permit third parties to use it (whether for a fee or free of charge) without LICENSOR’s prior written consent.

Where LICENSOR provides LICENSEE with software created by third parties (in particular standard software) for LICENSEE’s use, the rights of use granted to LICENSEE shall be limited in scope to such rights of use, as the third party has granted to LICENSOR. In such case, LICENSOR shall disclose to LICENSEE the scope of the rights of use, which the third party has granted, to LICENSOR.

The grant of rights of use to the SOFTWARE PRODUCT supplied to LICENSEE is subject to the receipt of the complete payment of any and all of LICENSOR’s receivables existing at the time of the download.

In the event of a breach by LICENSEE of the terms of this AGREEMENT, in particular where LICENSEE is in default of payment or where LICENSOR becomes aware of circumstances indicating that LICENSEE lacks the ability to pay or is in poor financial condition, LICENSOR shall be entitled to recover items of property to which it has reserved title even where it does not rescind the AGREEMENT. An assertion of retention of title shall only be deemed to constitute rescission of the AGREEMENT where this is expressly agreed.

LICENSEE is entitled to deploy the SOFTWARE PRODUCT on every item of hardware at its disposal up to the number of licenses acquired by it, provided that such hardware satisfies the requirements described in the user documentation. However, when LICENSEE changes its hardware, it must first completely delete the SOFTWARE PRODUCT from the hardware previously used. Upon request, LICENSOR provides LICENSEE with a new license. LICENSEE is granted the right to make copies of any printed documents of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT for its internal use and to distribute the same within its own company during the term of this AGREEMENT.

LICENSOR hereby disclaims toward LICENSEE as entrepreneurs liability for any and all claims for compensatory damages, in particular claims for any indirect, accidental or consequential damages or direct damages in respect of a SOFTWARE PRODUCT contained within its product range supplied, where such damages arise out of the use of or the inability to use the SOFTWARE PRODUCT, provided that LICENSOR is not culpable of intentional acts or omissions or blatantly gross negligence, and it should be noted that LICENSEE must prove the existence of intentional acts or omissions and gross negligence (except in cases of personal injury).
