object code form solely on a single processing unit owned or leased by You or otherwise embedded in equipment provided by Riv-
erstone and the accompanying documentation (the Licensed Software, the media embodying the Licensed Software, and the docu-
mentation are collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “Licensed Materials”); provided that You agree to the following
terms and conditions:
1. TERM AND TERMINATION. This Agreement is effective from the date on which You open the

The Agreement and your license to use the Licensed Materials will also terminate if You fail to
comply with any term or condition herein. In the event that You shall fail to keep, observe, or
perform any obligation under this Agreement, including a failure to pay any sums due to Riverstone,
Riverstone may, in addition to any other remedies it may have under law, terminate the License and
any other agreements between Riverstone and You. Upon such termination, You must destroy the
Licensed Materials as set forth above. Sections 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 shall survive termination
of this Agreement for any reason.
2. GRANT OF SOFTWARE LICENSE. The license granted to You by Riverstone when You open
this sealed package authorizes You to use the Licensed Software for internal use only and only on
any one, single processing unit owned or leased by You or otherwise embedded in equipment
provided by Riverstone, or any replacement for that processing unit or equipment. A separate
license, under a separate Software License Agreement, is required for any other equipment on which

purposes without Riverstone’s prior written consent, and in no event shall You operate more than one copy of the Licensed Soft-

sive property of Riverstone, any company or a division thereof which Riverstone controls or is controlled by,
or which may result from the merger or consolidation with Riverstone (its “Affiliates”), and/or their suppliers.

title to the Licensed Materials to You. There are no implied rights. You shall not sell, lease, transfer, subli-
cense, dispose of, or otherwise make available the Licensed Materials, or any portion thereof, to any other
party.

irreparable damages for which monetary compensation alone will be inadequate. You therefore agree that in

attorney’s fees and costs in enforcing this Agreement, as well as injunctive relief to restrain such breach, in
addition to any other remedies available to Riverstone.

provided) of the Licensed Software, to any party other than Riverstone or its employees, except for
purposes specifically related to your use of the Licensed Software on a single unit as expressly
provided in this Agreement, without the prior written consent of Riverstone. You agree to use your
best efforts and take all reasonable steps to safeguard the Licensed Materials to ensure that no
unauthorized personnel shall have access thereto and that no unauthorized copy, publication,
disclosure, or distribution, in whole or in part, in any form shall be made, and You agree to notify
Riverstone of any unauthorized use thereof. You acknowledge that the Licensed Materials contain
valuable confidential information and trade secrets, and that unauthorized use, copying and/or
disclosure thereof are harmful to Riverstone or its Affiliates and/or its/their software suppliers.
6. MAINTENANCE AND UPDATES. Updates and certain maintenance and support services, if any,
shall be provided to You pursuant to the terms of a Riverstone Service and Maintenance Agreement,
if Riverstone and You enter into such an agreement. Except as specifically set forth in such
agreement, Riverstone shall not be under any obligation to provide Software Updates, modifications,
or enhancements, or Software maintenance and support services to You.
7. EXPORT REQUIREMENTS. Licensed 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. You agree to comply strictly with
all such regulations and acknowledge that You have the responsibility to obtain licenses to export,
re-export or import Licensed Software.

considered commercial computer software in accordance with DFARS section 227.7202-3 and its
successors, and use, duplication, or disclosure by the Government is subject to restrictions set forth
herein.

period of ninety (90) days from the date of shipment from Riverstone: (i) the media on which the
Licensed Software is furnished will be free of defects in materials and workmanship under normal
use; and (ii) the Licensed Software substantially conforms to its published specifications. Except
for the foregoing, the Licensed Software is provided AS IS. This limited warranty extends only to
You as the original licensee. Your exclusive remedy and the entire liability of Riverstone and its
suppliers and Affiliates under this limited warranty will be, at Riverstone’s or its service center’s
option, repair or replacement; or, if neither of the foregoing is commercially reasonable, refund of
the Licensed Software if reported (or, upon request, returned) to the party supplying the Licensed
Software to You. In no event does Riverstone warrant that the Licensed Software is error free or that
You will be able to operate the Licensed Software without problems or interruptions.
NEITHER RIVERSTONE NOR ITS AFFILIATES MAKE ANY OTHER WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION, EXPRESS
OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE LICENSED MATERIALS, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MER-
CHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WHICH ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED. THE LIM-
ITED WARRANTY AND REMEDY PROVIDED ABOVE ARE EXCLUSIVE AND EXPRESSLY IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES, LIABILITIES, REMEDIES, EXRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY OBLIGATION, LIABILITY, RIGHT,
CLAIM, OR REMEDY IN TORT, WHETHER OR NOT ARISING FROM NEGLIGENCE OF RIVERSTONE OR ITS AFFILI-
ATES, ACTUAL OR IMPLIED.
IN NO EVENT WILL RIVERSTONE OR ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OTHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO ANY PARTY FOR
SPECIAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, RELIANCE, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION, LOSS OF DATA OR PROFITS OR FOR INABILITY TO USE THE LICENSED MATERIALS, WHETHER
CLAIMED BY REASON OF BREACH OF WARRANTY OR OTHERWISE AND WITHOUT REGARD TO THE FORM OF
ACTION IN WHICH SUCH CLAIM IS MADE, EVEN IF RIVERSTONE, ITS AFFILIATES OR SUCH OTHER PARTY HAS
BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL RIVERSTONE, ITS AFFILIATES
OR SUCH OTHER PARTY'S LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGES OR LOSS TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PARTY EXCEED
THE LICENSE FEE YOU PAID FOR THE LICENSED MATERIALS.
Some states do not allow exclusions of implied warranties or limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts and some
states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation and exclusion
may not apply to You. In the event that an exclusion of any implied warranty is not permitted by law, the duration of such
implied warranty is limited to the duration of the limited warranty set forth above. This limited warranty gives You specific
legal rights, and You may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
