1. USE OF SOFTWARE

You (an entity or a person) may use the software product identified as StaticsPower and its components selected by you, together with the applicable user documentation for StaticsPower and its selected components, (collectively, from time to time, the "Software"), in the quantity and on the additional terms and conditions, if any, set forth on the attached Software Order Schedule, if you meet the following conditions.

(a) For the Software: You must acquire one copy of the Software for each computer on which the Software will be installed.

(b) For Upgrades and Trade-ups: If the Software is an upgrade or a trade-up, you are authorized to use the upgrade or trade-up Software only if you are an existing authorized licensed user of a qualifying Software product as determined by Actus Potentia.

(c) Upgrades: You are required to load the Update in accordance with the accompanying instructions. Installation of an Upgrade may delete the previous or older copy of the Software component. To the extent that this deletion takes place, you may not use the previous or older copy of the Software once the Upgrade is installed.

2. REGISTRATION AND SECURITY

The installation of StaticsPower contains a file TestReg.txt. It contains user registration and security information, and is essential for proper operation of the software. Any attempt to access or move this file is considered a breach of this license agreement, and will impede proper operation of the software. Any warranty is void if an unauthorized attempt has been made to access or move this file.

 

3. RESTRICTIONS

The Software constitutes trade secrets and proprietary data of Actus Potentia and you agree to hold in confidence and not disclose the Software to any third party. You may not alter, merge, modify or adapt the Software in any way including reverse engineering, translation, disassembling or decompiling. You may not sell, distribute, loan, rent, lease, license or otherwise transfer the Software or any copy; except you may permanently transfer the Software (including all prior versions, backup copies, upgrades, trade-ups, and archival copies) provided you transfer this Software Agreement and all documentation and media and you do not retain any copies. If the Software is demonstration and evaluation ("D & E") software, you may not transfer the software for commercial purposes and you must notify Actus Potentia in writing that the software has been transferred by providing the name and address of the transferee and the transferor.

For ninety (90) days from your date of purchase, Actus Potentia warrants that (i) the Software will substantially conform to the applicable user documentation and (ii) that the magnetic media on which the Software is distributed and the user documentation (if any) are free from defects in materials and workmanship.

THE WARRANTY AND REMEDIES SET FORTH HEREIN ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHERS, ORAL OR WRITTEN, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED.

IN NO EVENT SHALL ACTUS POTENTIA'S LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGES EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU FOR THE SOFTWARE OUT OF WHICH SUCH CLAIM AROSE. ACTUS POTENTIA SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, DIRECT DAMAGES OR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND INCLUDING ANY DAMAGES ALLEGED TO HAVE BEEN CAUSED OR RESULTING FROM LOSS OF DATA.
