3.1. Development with Licensed Software
|
|
|
|
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, The Qt Company grants to Licensee a

2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|

|
|
|
|
to use, modify and copy the Licensed Software by Designated Users on the
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
Development Platforms for the sole purposes of designing, developing,
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
demonstrating and testing Application(s) and/or Devices, and to provide thereto
|
|
|
|
related support and other related services to end-user Customers. Each
|
|
|
|
Application and/or Device can only include, incorporate or integrate code
|
|
|
|
generated under this Agreement by such Designated Users who are duly licensed
|
|
|
|
for the applicable Development Platform(s) and Deployment Platform(s) (i.e have
|
|
|
|
a valid license for the appropriate Licensed Software product).
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Licensee may install copies of the Licensed Software on five (5) computers per
|
|
|
|
Designated User, provided that only the Designated Users who have a valid
|
|
|
|
Development License may use the Licensed Software.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Licensee may at any time designate another Designated User to replace a
|
|
|
|
then-current Designated User by notifying The Qt Company in writing, provided
|
|
|
|
that any Designated User may be replaced only once during any six-month period.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upon expiry of the initially agreed License Term, the respective License Terms
|
|
|
|
shall be automatically extended to one or more Renewal Term(s), unless and
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
until either Party notifies the other Party in writing, or any other method
|
|
|
|
acceptable to The Qt Company, that it does not wish to continue the License
|
|
|
|
Term, such notification to be provided to the other Party no less than thirty
|
|
|
|
(30) days before expiry of the respective License Term.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unless otherwise agreed between the Parties, Renewal Term shall be of equal
|
|
|
|
length with the initial License Term.
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Any such Renewal Term shall be subject to License Fees agreed between the
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
Parties or, if no advance agreement exists, subject to The Qt Company's standard
|
|
|
|
pricing applicable at the commencement date of any such Renewal Term.
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
Any price or other term specified for a Renewal Term shall be valid only for the
|
|
|
|
specified time.
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
The Qt Company may either request the Licensee to place a purchase order
|
|
|
|
corresponding to a quote by The Qt Company, or uses Licensees stored Credit
|
|
|
|
Card information in the QtAccount to automatically charge the Licensee for the
|
|
|
|
relevant Renewal Term.
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the event Licensee does not prevent auto-renewal pursuant the above, but a
|
|
|
|
Renewal Term is nevertheless not duly ordered within 30 days from the date of
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
the respective notification from The Qt Company and/or the respective License
|
|
|
|
Fee paid by due date specified in The Qt Company's respective invoice, The Qt
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
Company shall apply a reinstatement fee equal to ten percent (10 %) of the
|
|
|
|
total value of the License Fees of the Development Licenses for the expired
|
|
|
|
term to be added to the License Fee of the respective Renewal Term.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the event Licensee chooses not to renew a Development License for a Renewal
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
Term by notifying The Qt Company thereof no less than thirty (30) days before
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
expiry of the respective License Term, Licensee may still reinstate such
|
|
|
|
expired Development Licenses for a Renewal Term subject to applicable renewal
|
|
|
|
Term License Fees until thirty (30) days from the expiry of the initially
|
|
|
|
agreed License Term or preceding Renewal Term. After such thirty (30) day
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
period a Development License shall be subject to applicable License Fees for
|
|
|
|
a new Development License and not any Renewal Term License Fees.

|
|
Redistributables as installed, incorporated or integrated, or intended

3.4. Further Requirements
|
|
|
|
The licenses granted above in this Section 3 by The Qt Company to Licensee are
|
|
|
|
conditional and subject to Licensee's compliance with the following terms:
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
(i) Licensee shall not remove or alter any copyright, trademark or other
|
|
|
|
proprietary rights notice(s) contained in any portion of the Licensed
|
|
|
|
Software;
|
|
|
|
(ii) Applications must add primary and substantial functionality to the
|
|
|
|
Licensed Software so as not to compete with the Licensed Software;
|
|
|
|
(iii) Applications may not pass on functionality which in any way makes it
|
|
|
|
possible for others to create software with the Licensed Software;
|
|
|
|
provided however that Licensee may use the Licensed Software's
|
|
|
|
scripting and QML ("Qt Quick") functionality solely in order to
|
|
|
|
enable scripting, themes and styles that augment the functionality
|
|
|
|
and appearance of the Application(s) without adding primary and
|
|
|
|
substantial functionality to the Application(s);
|
|
|
|
(iv) Licensee shall not use Licensed Software in any manner or for any
|
|
|
|
purpose that infringes, misappropriates or otherwise violates any
|
|
|
|
Intellectual property or right of any third party, or that violates
|
|
|
|
any applicable law;
|
|
|
|
(v) Licensee shall not use The Qt Company's or any of its suppliers'
|

|
|
|
|
(vi) Licensee shall not distribute, sublicense or disclose source code
|
|
|
|
of Licensed Software to any third party (provided however that
|
|
|
|
Licensee may appoint employee(s) of Contractors as Designated
|
|
|
|
Users to use Licensed Software pursuant to this Agreement). Such
|
|
|
|
right may be available for the Licensee subject to a separate
|
|
|
|
software development kit ("SDK") license agreement to be concluded
|
|
|
|
with The Qt Company;
|
|
|
|
(vii) Licensee shall not grant the Customers a right to (i) make copies of

|
|
|
|
Applications and/or Devices for their intended purpose, (ii) modify
|
|

|
the Redistributables or create derivative works thereof, (iii)

|
any third party, except as part of the onward sale of the Device on
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
(viii) Licensee shall not and shall cause that its Affiliates or
|
|
|
|
Contractors shall not use Licensed Software in any Prohibited
|
|
|
|
Combination, unless Licensee has received an advance written
|
|
|
|
permission from The Qt Company to do so. Absent such written
|
|
|
|
permission, any and all distribution by the Licensee during the Term
|
|
|
|
of a hardware device or product a) which incorporate or integrate any
|
|
|
|
part of Licensed Software or Open Source Qt; or b) where the main
|
|
|
|
user interface or substantial functionality is provided by software
|
|
|
|
built with Licensed Software or Open Source Qt or otherwise depends
|
|
|
|
on the Licensed Software or Open Source Qt, shall be considered to be
|
|
|
|
Device distribution under this Agreement and shall be dependent on
|
|
|
|
Licensee's compliance thereof (including but not limited to
|
|
|
|
obligation to pay applicable License Fees for such distribution).
|
|

|
|
|
|
Licensee is entitled to use and combine Licensed Software with any
|
|
|
|
Permitted Software;
|
|
|
|
(ix) Licensee shall cause all of its Affiliates and Contractors entitled
|
|
|
|
to make use of the licenses granted under this Agreement, to be
|
|
|
|
contractually bound to comply with the relevant terms of this
|
|
|
|
Agreement and not to use the Licensed Software beyond the terms
|
|
|
|
hereof and for any purposes other than operating within the scope
|
|
|
|
of their services for Licensee. Licensee shall be responsible for
|
|
|
|
any and all actions and omissions of its Affiliates and Contractors
|
|
|
|
relating to the Licensed Software and use thereof (including but not
|
|
|
|
limited to payment of all applicable License Fees);
|
|
|
|
(x) Except when and to the extent explicitly provided in this Section 3,
|
|
|
|
Licensee shall not transfer, publish, disclose, display or otherwise
|
|
|
|
make available the Licensed Software; and
|
|
|
|
(xi) Licensee shall not attempt or enlist a third party to conduct or
|
|
|
|
attempt to conduct any of the above.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Above terms shall not be applicable if and to the extent they conflict with any
|
|
|
|
mandatory provisions of any applicable laws.
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
Any use of Licensed Software beyond the provisions of this Agreement is
|
|
|
|
strictly prohibited and requires an additional license from The Qt Company.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
The Licensed Software may provide links to third party libraries or code
|
|
|
|
(collectively "Third-Party Software") to implement various functions.
|
|
|
|
Third-Party Software does not comprise part of the Licensed Software. In some
|
|
|
|
cases, access to Third-Party Software may be included with the Licensed
|
|
|
|
Software. Such Third-Party Software will be listed in the ".../src/3rdparty"
|
|
|
|
source tree delivered with the Licensed Software or documented in the Licensed
|
|
|
|
Software, as such may be amended from time to time. Licensee acknowledges that
|
|
|
|
use or distribution of Third-Party Software is in all respects subject to
|
|
|
|
applicable license terms of applicable third-party right holders.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. PRE-RELEASE CODE
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
The Licensed Software may contain pre-release code and functionality, or sample
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
code marked or otherwise stated with appropriate designation such as "Technology
|
|
|
|
Preview", "Alpha", "Beta", "Sample" etc. ("Pre-Release Code").
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
Such Pre-Release Code may be present complimentary for the Licensee, in order to
|
|
|
|
provide experimental support or information for new platforms or preliminary
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
versions of one or more new functionalities or for other similar reasons. The
|
|
|
|
Pre-Release Code may not be at the level of performance and compatibility of a
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
final, generally available, product offering. The Pre-Release Code may not
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
operate correctly, may contain errors and may be substantially modified by The
|
|
|
|
Qt Company prior to the first commercial product release, if any. The Qt
|
|
|
|
Company is under no obligation to make Pre-Release Code commercially available,
|
|
|
|
or provide any Support or Updates relating thereto. The Qt Company assumes no
|
|
|
|
liability whatsoever regarding any Pre-Release Code, but any use thereof is
|
|
|
|
exclusively at Licensee's own risk and expense.
|
|
|
|
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
For clarity, unless Licensed Software specifies different license terms for
|
|
|
|
the respective Pre-Release Code, the Licensee is entitled to use such
|
|
|
|
pre-release code pursuant to Section 3, just like other Licensed Software,
|
|
|
|
provided however that in the event Add-on Products are included and available
|
|
|
|
as such Pre-Release Code, Licensee's right to use such Add-on Products is
|
|
|
|
nevertheless subject to and conditional upon conclusion of separate agreement
|
|
|
|
with The Qt Company.

|
|
|

2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
Each Party acknowledges that during the Term of this Agreement each Party may
|
|
|
|
receive information about the other Party's business, business methods,
|
|
|
|
business plans, customers, business relations, technology, and other
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
information, including the terms of this Agreement, that is confidential and
|
|
|
|
of great value to the other Party, and the value of which would be
|
|
|
|
significantly reduced if disclosed to third parties ("Confidential
|
|
|
|
Information"). Accordingly, when a Party (the "Receiving Party") receives
|
|
|
|
Confidential Information from the other Party (the "Disclosing Party"), the
|
|
|
|
Receiving Party shall only disclose such information to employees and
|
|
|
|
Contractors on a need to know basis, and shall cause its employees and
|
|
|
|
employees of its Affiliates to: (i) maintain any and all Confidential
|
|
|
|
Information in confidence; (ii) not disclose the Confidential Information to
|
|
|
|
a third party without the Disclosing Party's prior written approval; and (iii)
|
|
|
|
not, directly or indirectly, use the Confidential Information for any purpose
|
|
|
|
other than for exercising its rights and fulfilling its responsibilities
|
|
|
|
pursuant to this Agreement. Each Party shall take reasonable measures to
|
|
|
|
protect the Confidential Information of the other Party, which measures shall
|
|
|
|
not be less than the measures taken by such Party to protect its own
|
|
|
|
confidential and proprietary information.
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Obligation of confidentiality shall not apply to information that (i) is or
|
|
|
|
becomes generally known to the public through no act or omission of the
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
Receiving Party; (ii) was in the Receiving Party's lawful possession prior
|
|
|
|
to the disclosure hereunder and was not subject to limitations on disclosure
|
|
|
|
or use; (iii) is developed independently by employees or Contractors of the
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
Receiving Party or other persons working for the Receiving Party who have not
|
|
|
|
had access to the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, as proven
|
|
|
|
by the written records of the Receiving Party; (iv) is lawfully disclosed to
|
|
|
|
the Receiving Party without restrictions, by a third party not under an
|
|
|
|
obligation of confidentiality; or (v) the Receiving Party is legally compelled
|
|
|
|
to disclose, in which case the Receiving Party shall notify the Disclosing
|
|
|
|
Party of such compelled disclosure and assert the privileged and confidential
|
|
|
|
nature of the information and cooperate fully with the Disclosing Party to
|
|
|
|
limit the scope of disclosure and the dissemination of disclosed Confidential
|
|
|
|
Information to the minimum extent necessary.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The obligations under this Section 9 shall continue to remain in force for a
|
|
|
|
period of five (5) years after the last disclosure, and, with respect to trade
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
secrets, for so long as such trade secrets are protected under applicable
|
|
|
|
trade secret laws.

notice and at its expense, audit Licensee with respect to the Licensee's

|
|
use of the Licensed Software, but not more frequently than once during
|
|
|
|
each 6-month period. Such audit may be conducted by mail, electronic means
|
|
|
|
or through an in-person visit to Licensee's place of business. Any such
|
|
|
|
in-person audit shall be conducted during regular business hours at

Licensee's facilities and shall not unreasonably interfere with Licensee's
|
|
|

|
|
behalf of The Qt Company shall be entitled to inspect Licensee's Records
|
|
|
|
and conduct necessary interviews of Licensee's relevant employees and
|
|
|
|
Contractors. All such Licensee's Records and use thereof shall be subject
|
|
|
|
to an obligation of confidentiality under this Agreement.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If an audit reveals that Licensee is using the Licensed Software beyond
|
|
|
|
scope of the licenses Licensee has paid for, Licensee agrees to pay The Qt
|
|
|
|
Company any amounts owed for such unauthorized use within 30 days from
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition, in the event the audit reveals a material violation of the
|
|
|
|
terms of this Agreement (without limitation, either (i) underpayment of
|
|
|
|
more than 10 % of License Fees or 10,000 euros (whichever is more) or
|
|
|
|
(ii) distribution of products, which include or result from Prohibited
|
|
|
|
Combination, shall be deemed a material violation for purposes of this
|
|
|
|
section), then the Licensee shall pay The Qt Company's reasonable cost of
|
|
|
|
conducting such audit.

|
|
|

|
Notwithstanding the above, in the event the Agreement expires or is terminated:
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
(i) as a result of The Qt Company choosing not to renew the Development
|
|
|
|
License(s) as set forth in Section 3.1, and where such decision of
|
|
|
|
non-renewal is not due to any ongoing breach or alleged breach (as
|
|
|
|
reasonably determined by The Qt Company) by Licensee of the terms of this
|
|
|
|
Agreement or any applicable license terms of Open Source Qt, then all valid
|
|
|
|
licenses possessed by the Licensee at such date shall be extended to be
|
|
|
|
valid in perpetuity under the terms of this Agreement and Licensee is
|
|
|
|
entitled to purchase additional licenses as set forth in Section 10.2; or
|
|
|
|
(ii) for reason other than by The Qt Company pursuant to item (i) above
|
|
|

Company all copies of the Licensed Software and all related materials and will

reasonably require in providing continued support to Customers.
|

|
|
|
|
shall immediately pay to The Qt Company all such fees upon the effective date
|
|
|
|
of termination. Termination of this Agreement shall not affect any rights of
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00

|
14.4. Entire Agreement
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
This Agreement, the exhibits hereto, the License Certificate and any
|
|
|
|
applicable Purchase Order accepted by The Qt Company constitute the complete
|
|
|
|
agreement between the Parties and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous
|
|
|
|
discussions, representations, and proposals, written or oral, with respect
|
|
|
|
to the subject matters discussed herein.
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and any
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
Purchase Order, the terms of this Agreement will prevail over the terms of
|
|
|
|
the Purchase Order with respect to such conflict or inconsistency.
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
Parties specifically acknowledge and agree that this Agreement prevails
|
|
|
|
over any click-to-accept or similar agreements the Designated Users may
|
|
|
|
need to accept online upon download of the Licensed Software, as may be
|
|
|
|
required by The Qt Company's applicable processes relating to Licensed
|
|
|
|
Software.
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
14.5. Modifications
|
|
|
|
No modification of this Agreement shall be effective unless contained in a
|
|
|
|
writing executed by an authorized representative of each Party. No term or
|
|
|
|
condition contained in Licensee's Purchase Order ("Deviating Terms") shall
|
|
|
|
apply unless The Qt Company has expressly agreed such Deviating Terms in
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
writing. Unless and to the extent expressly agreed by The Qt Company, any
|
|
|
|
such Deviating Terms shall be deemed void and with no legal effect. For
|
|
|
|
clarity, delivery of the Licensed Software following the receipt of the
|
|
|
|
Purchase Order including Deviating Terms shall not constitute acceptance of
|
|
|
|
such Deviating Terms."

14.6. Force Majeure
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
Except for the payment obligations hereunder, neither Party shall be liable
|
|
|
|
to the other for any delay or non-performance of its obligations hereunder
|
|
|
|
in the event and to the extent that such delay or non-performance is due to
|
|
|
|
an event of act of God, terrorist attack or other similar unforeseeable
|
|
|
|
catastrophic event that prevents either Party for fulfilling its
|
|
|
|
obligations under this Agreement and which such Party cannot avoid or
|
|
|
|
circumvent ("Force Majeure Event"). If the Force Majeure Event results in
|
|
|
|
a delay or non-performance of a Party for a period of three (3) months or
|
|
|
|
longer, then either Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
|
|
|
|
with immediate effect without any liability (except for the obligations of
|
|
|
|
payment arising prior to the event of Force Majeure) towards the other
|
|
|
|
Party.

competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall

|
|
|
The provisions of this Appendix 4 are applicable for companies with an annual
|
|
|
|
revenue, including funding, equivalent to maximum of 250,000 USD (in
|
|
|
|
applicable currency) during the latest full calendar year, as evidenced by
|
|
|
|
duly audited records of the Licensee and approved by The Qt Company

Start-up Companies are qualified for a discounted License Fee for maximum of

|
|
|
|
otherwise agreed between the parties.
|
|
|

|
|
|
Start-up Development License entitles the respective Designated User for
|
|
|
|
Support only for installation related issues.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upon expiry of the respective License Term, the Start-up Development
|
|
|
|
Licenses shall be automatically extended, pursuant to Section 3.1 of the
|
|
|
|
Agreement, for a Renewal Term either as new Start-up Development Licenses
|
|
|
|
(if the Licensee still qualifies as a Start-up Company), or as normal
|
|
|
|
Development Licenses (if the Licensee no longer qualifies as a Start-up
|
|
|
|
company).

The provisions of this Appendix 5 are applicable for non-commercial use of

|
the Licensed Software by the Licensee.
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For the purpose of this Appendix 5, the following additional definitions
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
(replacing the relevant definition of the Agreement, where applicable)
|
|
|
|
shall be applicable:
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Demo Units" shall mean (i) hardware development platform, which incorporates
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
the Licensed Software along with Licensee's software and/or hardware, and
|
|
|
|
(ii) prototype versions of Applications or Devices.
|
2022-05-14 17:39:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Designated User(s)" shall mean the employees and students of the Licensee.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Licensee Products" shall mean Applications and/or Devices.
|
|
|
|
|
2023-05-05 14:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
"Permitted Purpose" shall mean (i) Licensee's internal evaluation and
|
|
|
|
testing of Licensed Software, (ii) building Demo Units as well as (iii)
|
|
|
|
educational use.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Term" shall mean a period of twelve (12) months or any such other period
|
|
|
|
as may be agreed between the Parties.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For the purpose of this Appendix 5, the following changes shall be agreed
|
|
|
|
with respect to relevant Sections of the Agreement:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I. Recital (A) shall be replaced in its entirety to read as follows:
|
|
|
|
"(A) Licensee wishes to use the Licensed Software for the Permitted
|
|
|
|
Purpose."
|
|
|
|
II. Section 3.1 shall be replaced in its entirety to read as follows:
|
|
|
|
"The Qt Company grants to Licensee a personal, non-exclusive,
|
|
|
|
non-transferable, revocable, royalty-free license, valid for the
|
|
|
|
Term, to use, modify and copy the Licensed Software solely for the
|
|
|
|
Permitted Purpose.
|
|
|
|
Licensee may install copies of the Licensed Software on five (5)
|
|
|
|
computers per Designated User, provided that only the Designated
|
|
|
|
Users who have a valid Development License may use the Licensed
|
|
|
|
Software.
|
|
|
|
Licensee may demonstrate the Demo Units, provided that such
|
|
|
|
demonstrations must be conducted by Licensee, and the Demo Units
|
|
|
|
must remain in Licensee's possession and under Licensee's control
|
|
|
|
at all times.
|
|
|
|
For clarity, this Agreement does not (i) entitle Licensee to use
|
|
|
|
Licensed Software to create Applications or Devices (other than
|
|
|
|
prototypes thereof) or (ii) carry any distribution rights to
|
|
|
|
Licensee, but such rights are subject to and conditional upon
|
|
|
|
conclusion of a separate license agreement with The Qt Company."
|
|
|
|
III. Sections 3.2, 3.3, 8 and 10 shall be deleted.
|
|
|
|
IV. Section 3.4 shall be replaced in its entirety to read as follows:
|
|
|
|
"Licensee shall not:
|
|
|
|
- remove or alter any copyright, trademark or other proprietary
|
|
|
|
rights notice contained in any portion of the Licensed Software;
|
|
|
|
- transfer, publish, sublicense, disclose, display or otherwise
|
|
|
|
make the Licensed Software available to any third party (except
|
|
|
|
that Licensee may demonstrate the Demo Units pursuant to Section
|
|
|
|
3.1);
|
|
|
|
- in any way combine, incorporate or integrate Licensed Software
|
|
|
|
with, or use Licensed Software for creation of, any software
|
|
|
|
created with or incorporating Open Source Qt;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Licensee shall cause all Designated Users who make use of the
|
|
|
|
licenses granted under this Agreement, to be contractually bound
|
|
|
|
to comply with the relevant terms of this Agreement and not to use
|
|
|
|
the Licensed Software beyond the terms hereof. Licensee shall be
|
|
|
|
responsible for any and all actions and omissions of its
|
|
|
|
Designated Users relating to the Licensed Software and use
|
|
|
|
thereof.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Any use of Licensed Software beyond the provisions of this
|
|
|
|
Agreement is strictly prohibited and requires an additional license
|
|
|
|
from The Qt Company."
|
|
|
|
V. Section 12 shall be replaced in its entirety to read as follows:
|
|
|
|
"This Agreement shall enter into force upon due acceptance by both
|
|
|
|
Parties and remain in force for the Term, unless and until
|
|
|
|
terminated pursuant to the terms of Section 12.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upon termination of the Agreement, Licensee shall cease using the
|
|
|
|
Licensed Software. All other copies of Licensed Software in the
|
|
|
|
possession or control of Licensee must be erased or destroyed.
|
|
|
|
An officer of Licensee must, upon request, promptly deliver to
|
|
|
|
The Qt Company a written confirmation that this has occurred."
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Except for the modifications specified above, this Appendix carries no
|
|
|
|
change to the terms of the Agreement which shall remain in full force.
|
