183 Disclaimer of Warranty and Exclusive Remedies
185 THE PROGRAMS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. WE
186 FURTHER DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS AND IMPLIED, INCLUDING
187 WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS
188 FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NONINFRINGEMENT.
190 IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL,
191 PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS,
192 REVENUE, DATA OR DATA USE, INCURRED BY YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY, WHETHER
193 IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT OR TORT, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE
194 POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR ENTIRE LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES
195 HEREUNDER SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS (U.S. $1,000).
197 No Technical Support Our technical support organization will not
198 provide technical support, phone support, or updates to you or end
199 users for the Programs licensed under this agreement.
201 Restricted Rights If you distribute a license to the United States
202 government, the Programs, including documentation, shall be considered
203 commercial computer software and you will place a legend, in addition
204 to applicable copyright notices, on the documentation, and on the
205 media label, substantially similar to the following: NOTICE OF
206 RESTRICTED RIGHTS "Programs delivered subject to the DOD FAR
207 Supplement are 'commercial computer software' and use, duplication,
208 and disclosure of the programs, including documentation, shall be
209 subject to the licensing restrictions set forth in the applicable
210 Oracle license agreement. Otherwise, programs delivered subject to the
211 Federal Acquisition Regulations are 'restricted computer software' and
212 use, duplication, and disclosure of the programs, including
213 documentation, shall be subject to the restrictions in FAR 52.227-19,
214 Commercial Computer Software-Restricted Rights (June 1987). Oracle
215 Corporation, 500 Oracle Parkway, Redwood City, CA 94065."
217 End of Agreement You may terminate this Agreement by destroying all
218 copies of the Programs. We have the right to terminate your right to
219 use the Programs if you fail to comply with any of the terms of this
220 Agreement, in which case you shall destroy all copies of the Programs.
222 Relationship Between the Parties The relationship between you and us
223 is that of licensee/licensor. Neither party will represent that it has
224 any authority to assume or create any obligation, express or implied,
225 on behalf of the other party, nor to represent the other party as
226 agent, employee, franchisee, or in any other capacity. Nothing in this
227 Agreement shall be construed to limit either party's right to
228 independently develop or distribute software that is functionally
229 similar to the other party's products, so long as proprietary
230 information of the other party is not included in such software.
232 Open Source "Open Source" software - software available without charge
233 for use, modification and distribution - is often licensed under terms
234 that require the user to make the user's modifications to the Open
235 Source software or any software that the user 'combines' with the Open
236 Source software freely available in source code form. If you use Open
237 Source software in conjunction with the Programs, you must ensure that
238 your use does not: (i) create, or purport to create, obligations of us
239 with respect to the Oracle Programs; or (ii) grant, or purport to
240 grant, to any third party any rights to or immunities under our
241 intellectual property or proprietary rights in the Oracle
242 Programs. For example, you may not develop a software program using an
243 Oracle Program and an Open Source program where such use results in a
244 program file(s) that contains code from both the Oracle Program and
245 the Open Source program (including without limitation libraries) if
246 the Open Source program is licensed under a license that requires any
247 "modifications" be made freely available. You also may not combine the
248 Oracle Program with programs licensed under the GNU General Public
249 License ("GPL") in any manner that could cause, or could be
250 interpreted or asserted to cause, the Oracle Program or any
251 modifications thereto to become subject to the terms of the GPL.
253 Entire Agreement You agree that this Agreement is the complete
254 agreement for the Programs and licenses, and this Agreement supersedes
255 all prior or contemporaneous Agreements or representations. If any
256 term of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the
257 remaining provisions will remain effective.
