BITKEEPER SOFTWARE END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT
NOTICE: PLEASE READ THIS END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT CAREFULLY
BEFORE INSTALLING OR USING THE BITKEEPER SOFTWARE. BITMOVER,
INC. ("BITMOVER") IS WILLING TO LICENSE THE SOFTWARE ONLY UPON
THE CONDITION THAT YOU ACCEPT ALL OF THE TERMS CONTAINED IN THIS
END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT ("AGREEMENT"). BY CLICKING ON
"ACCEPT" AND/OR INSTALLING AND/OR USING THE SOFTWARE, YOU WILL
INDICATE YOUR AGREEMENT WITH ALL OF THE TERMS CONTAINED HEREIN.
YOU MAY ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT BY CLICKING ON THE "ACCEPT" BOX
BELOW. YOU MAY REJECT THIS AGREEMENT, AND TERMINATE THE INSTAL-
LATION PROCESS AND/OR YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE, BY CLICKING THE
"CANCEL" BUTTON BELOW. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT,
THEN BITMOVER IS UNWILLING TO LICENSE THE SOFTWARE TO YOU, IN
WHICH EVENT YOU SHOULD RETURN THE SOFTWARE TO THE PLACE OF PUR-
CHASE AND RECEIVE A FULL REFUND.
1. Software.
You are interested in obtaining from BitMover licenses to use
certain application software programs, as described more fully
in the attached or referenced Product Schedule, including any
Updates and Upgrades you may receive pursuant to this Agreement
and all copies and design data, and accompanying Documentation
(the "Software"), on terms and subject to the conditions set
forth herein.
2. Scope of Use.
BitMover expressly reserves all rights in the Software not
specifically granted to you.
(a) Evaluation License. If you have chosen an Evaluation
License, you are granted an evaluation license authorizing
you to install, store, load, execute, display and evaluate
internally (collectively, "Evaluate") the Software on the
same terms and conditions applicable under Section 2(b)
(Operating License) for a period of thirty (30) calendar
days after acceptance of this Agreement (the "Evaluation
Period"). In the event that you continue Use of the Soft-
ware after completion of the Evaluation Period, you shall
be deemed to have elected to acquire an Operating License
to Use the Software under Subsection (b) (Operating
License) in accordance with the other terms and conditions
of this Agreement; you are required to pay the applicable
fees as set forth in the attached or referenced Fee Sched-
ule. If you do not elect to acquire an Operating License,
this Agreement shall be deemed terminated and you shall
destroy all copies of the Software in your possession or
control. THE SOFTWARE CONTAINS A FEATURE THAT DISABLES ITS
OPERATION AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE EVALUATION PERIOD.
WORKS THAT YOU CREATE DURING THE EVALUATION PERIOD MAY
REQUIRE THE SOFTWARE IN ORDER TO BE ACCESSED. YOU SHOULD
TAKE PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID ANY LOSS OF DATA THAT MIGHT
RESULT.
(b) Operating License. As long as you comply with the terms
and conditions of this Agreement, BitMover hereby grants
you a world-wide nonexclusive license (an "Operating
License") to install, store and load the Software you have
selected on appropriately configured equipment and to use,
execute, and/or display ("Use") the Software solely for
your ordinary and customary business purposes, for the
license term set forth below.
(c) Transfer. Neither this Agreement, nor any rights or obli-
gations hereunder, may be transferred, assigned (by opera-
tion of law or otherwise), delegated, sub-licensed, relo-
cated or moved to another person, in whole or in part,
without BitMover's prior written consent and any attempt to
the contrary shall be void and of no legal effect.
3. Term.
(a) Leased Licenses: If your Operating License(s) is/are Leased
License(s) it/they shall continue in full force and effect
for a period of three (3) months, six (6) months or one (1)
year ("Initial Term") as you have selected, unless termi-
nated earlier in accordance with Section 14 (Termination).
If you are not in default of this Agreement, you shall have
the opportunity to renew the Operating License(s) for suc-
cessive like periods (each, a "Renewal Term"). At least
thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of any Initial
Term or Renewal Term, BitMover shall inform you of the
then-current fees for renewal and BitMover's then-current
terms and conditions ("New Terms and Conditions"). Your
Renewal Term shall be effective on the first day after the
expiration of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, as the case
may be. For Leased Licenses, the Initial Term and any
Renewal Term are collectively referred to herein as the
"Leased License Term". Upon renewal, you shall pay any
applicable license and/or support fee with respect to such
Software. If you fail to make payment of any required
license and/or support fees when due, your Use of the Soft-
ware for any purpose after the expiration of the paid
Leased License Term is not authorized. Upon expiration of
the Leased License Term the Software may automatically dis-
able itself. Works that you create during the Leased
License Term may require the Software to run. You should
therefore take precautions to avoid any loss of data that
may result. Renewal shall not operate to renew or other-
wise extend any warranty obligations under Section 11
(Indemnification, Exclusive Remedy, Warranty & Disclaimer).
(b) Perpetual Licenses: If your Operating License(s) is/are
Perpetual License(s) continue in full force and effect in
perpetuity, unless terminated earlier in accordance with
Section 14 (Termination). If you are not in default of
this Agreement, your annual support shall be renewed auto-
matically unless you notify BitMover in writing at least
thirty (30) days prior to expiration that you will not
renew. At least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration
of your then-current support term, BitMover shall inform
you in writing of the then-current fees for renewal. Upon
renewal, you shall pay the applicable support fee. If you
have a current support contract, you may elect to adopt a
release more current than your Supported Release, as desig-
nated at the time you purchased your license, upon your
written acceptance of New Terms and Conditions. Renewal of
the annual support option shall not operate to renew or
otherwise extend any warranty obligations under Section 11
(Indemnification, Exclusive Remedy, Warranty & Disclaimer).
4. Restrictions.
You may not yourself and may not permit or enable anyone to: (i)
modify or translate the Software; (ii) reverse engineer, decom-
pile, or disassemble the Software or otherwise reduce the Soft-
ware to a form understandable by humans, except to the extent

notwithstanding this limitation; (iii) rent, lease, loan, resell
or create derivative works based on the Software; (iv) merge the
Software with another product; (v) separate the Software into
its component parts; (vi) copy the Software, except (A) as

vicemarks, confidentiality notices and/or restricted rights
notices on or in the Software.

ciency the Use and operation of the Software (the "Documen-
tation"). The Documentation shall be supplied downloadable
form and you may reproduce it only for purposes authorized
herein.
6. Acceptance.
You shall be deemed to have accepted the Software unless you

the Software or (b) effectiveness of the Operating License.
7. Support Services.
After expiration of the Limited Performance Warranty under Sec-
tion 11, you shall have the option (exercised by payment of the
Annual Lease Fee for Leased Licenses or the Annual Support Fee
for Perpetual Licenses, each as set forth in the then-current
Fee Schedule) to receive the Software support services set forth
below; provided that if you do not elect to receive Software
support services in any year, your rights under this Section 7
shall immediately terminate, with no right to elect coverage
thereafter. To reinstate support, you must pay all fees that
would have been paid for continuous coverage to the date of
reinstatement.
(a) Hotline Service. BitMover's hotline service shall mean
assistance for error correction and advice on the Use and
operation of the all maintained versions of the Software,
Monday through Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Bit-
Mover's local time. Service requests transmitted during
non-business hours shall be considered received by BitMover
on the next business day. Trouble Reports shall be commu-
nicated by e-mail (preferably) or by telephone or tele-
copier machine and shall provide sufficient information to
enable BitMover to replicate and diagnose the reported
problem. BitMover shall be provided reasonable access to
the Software via remote dial-in contact, subject to your
normal security requirements. Unless otherwise agreed in
writing, out-of-scope work or support services outside reg-
ular business hours shall be subject to a surcharge at Bit-
Mover's then-current labor rate.
(b) Supported Release. "Supported Release" shall mean the
release designated in the attached or referenced Licenses
Schedule, plus any Updates. "Updates" shall mean revisions
to the Software and associated Documentation which BitMover
generally distributes to its customers as updates. Bit-
Mover's designation of an item as a new version or an
enhancement ("Upgrade") rather than an Update shall be con-
clusive. Upgrades are not provided as part of the support
services, except at the sole discretion of BitMover. Bit-
Mover shall provide maintenance for all versions of the
Software released within twelve months of the most recent
version of the Software.
(c) Certain Conditions. BitMover shall not be obligated to
provide support services if: (i) the reported error was
caused by changes not authorized in writing by BitMover in
Software source code, program parameters or other user
adjustable features; (ii) the error results from operator
error, errors in data not supplied by BitMover or Use that
is not in accordance with the Documentation; (iii) the
error is in a prior release that was corrected through
issuance of an Update that you have failed to install, (iv)
the Software does not pass the included regression tests
when run on your system, or (v) you are in default of this
Agreement.
(d) Training. This Agreement does not provide for any Training
Services with respect to the Use and operation of the Soft-
ware. BitMover shall be reasonably available to provide
Training Services under a signed amendment to this Agree-
ment and in consideration for its then-current fees.
(e) Any software code provided to you as part of the support
services is part of the Software and subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement. If you provide technical
information to BitMover in order for BitMover to provide
support services, BitMover may use such information for
product support and development.
8. Prices, Payment & Taxes.
The prices and fees for Software or other technology provided
hereunder, any Support Services and other deliverables are set
forth on the attached or referenced Fee Schedule. Upon thirty

ject to change without notice. License fees shall be invoiced
as specified in the attached or referenced Fee Schedule.
Invoiced amounts shall be paid within thirty (30) days from
receipt of invoice. You may not withhold or "setoff" any

and assert appropriate liens until all amounts due are paid in
full. Any late payment shall be subject to any costs of collec-
tion (including reasonable legal fees) and shall bear interest
at the rate of one and one-half (1.5) percent per month or frac-
tion thereof (but no more than the maximum percentage allowed by
applicable law) until paid. Prices quoted do not include and

action contemplated herein.
9. Ownership.
As between the parties to this Agreement, Bitmover and its
licensors own the Documentation, the Software and all intellec-
tual property rights embodied therein, including copyrights and
valuable trade secrets embodied in the Software's design, code
and coding methodology. The Software is protected by United
States copyright laws and international treaty provisions and is
the subject of pending U.S. patent applications and other
applicable intellectual property laws and treaties. This Agree-
ment provides you only a limited use license, and no ownership
of any intellectual property. In the event that you or any of
your employees, independent contractors and/or affiliates (each
a "person") makes or has made any modifications or extensions of
the Software or Documentation, such modifications and extensions
shall be owned by BitMover, and you shall cooperate, and cause
any such person to cooperate, with all reasonable requests of
BitMover in connection with the documentation and establishment
of its ownership, including without limitation full cooperation
with patent applications. You agree that you will not, at any
time, contest anywhere in the world BitMover's ownership of, or
the validity of BitMover's rights in, the Software.
10. Confidentiality.
(a) Definition and Acknowledgment. "Confidential Information"
shall mean proprietary products and trade secrets, embody-
ing creative efforts and confidential information, ideas,
and expressions. You hereby acknowledge and agree that the
Software constitutes and contains valuable Confidential
Information of BitMover and/or its licensors, and that Con-
fidential Information of BitMover also includes its busi-
ness and marketing strategies, competitive information,
products (whether or not commercially released) and techni-
cal specifications, research and development activities,
source code and algorithms, features, methods of work, user
interfaces, information provided as part of the support
services, and any of BitMover's and/or its licensors'
intellectual property of any sort. BitMover hereby
acknowledges and agrees that you may provide BitMover with
Confidential Information during the course of normal use
and support of the Software. Accordingly, each party
agrees to treat Confidential Information in accordance with
the confidentiality requirements and conditions set forth
below.
(b) Exclusions. Confidential Information does not include: (i)
information already known or independently developed by the
receiving party outside the scope of this relationship by
personnel not having access to any Confidential Informa-
tion; (ii) information in the public domain through no
wrongful act of the receiving party; or (iii) information
obtained by the receiving party from a third party who was
free to disclose it.
(c) Maintenance of Confidentiality. Each party hereby agrees
during the effectiveness of this Agreement and at all times
thereafter to keep confidential all Confidential Informa-
tion disclosed to it by the other party hereunder. Each
party shall use at least the same degree of care in safe-
guarding the Confidential Information as it uses in safe-
guarding its own confidential information, but in no event
shall it use less than reasonable care. Upon termination
of this Agreement and/or the licenses granted hereunder,
each party shall destroy all Confidential Information in
its possession or control and cease all further use
thereof. Any information derived in violation of the
covenants in Section 4 (Restrictions) shall automatically
be deemed Confidential Information owned exclusively by
BitMover and/or its licensors, as between the parties; you
shall notify BitMover promptly of any such violation and
cooperate with BitMover to minimize the damage caused to
BitMover thereby.
(d) Disclosures Required by Law. If a receiving party is
legally compelled to disclose any of the disclosing party's
Confidential Information, then, prior to such disclosure,
the receiving party will (a) immediately notify the dis-
closing party, (b) assert the privileged and confidential
nature of the Confidential Information and (c) cooperate
fully with the disclosing party in protecting against any
such disclosure and/or obtaining a protective order narrow-
ing the scope of such disclosure and/or use of the Confi-
dential Information. In the event that disclosure is
required, the receiving party may disclose the Confidential
Information only to the extent necessary to comply with the
applicable legal requirements.
(e) Injunctive Relief. Each party acknowledges that a breach
or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section 10
would cause irreparable harm not adequately compensable by
monetary damages. In addition to other relief, it is
agreed that injunctive relief shall be available to prevent
or remedy any such breach, and neither party shall assert
or otherwise suggest the necessity of posting bond, nor
object that damages would be an adequate remedy.
11. Indemnification, Exclusive Remedy, Warranty & Disclaimer.
(a) Indemnification. BitMover shall defend or settle any third
party claim or suit or proceeding brought against you so
far as it is based on an allegation that the Software fur-
nished hereunder infringes or misappropriates any third
party (A) United States copyright, (B) United States trade-
mark, or (C) trade secret rights enforceable in the United
States ("IP Claim"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bit-
Mover shall have no liability for any claims of infringe-
ment and/or misappropriation of intellectual property
rights arising out of: compliance with your designs, speci-
fications or instructions; modifications of the Software by
any party other than BitMover other than in accordance with
BitMover's written instructions; Use of the Software other
than as specified in relevant BitMover publications; Use of
the Software in combination with a third-party product,
where Use of the Software without such product would not
give rise to a claim; Use of any version of the Software
other than BitMover's then-current unaltered release; a
product that you make, use or sell; or infringement by you
that is deemed to be willful ("Excluded Claims"). You
shall indemnify BitMover against all liability, damages and
costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) resulting from
or related to any Excluded Claim. BitMover shall pay all
costs and damages finally awarded against you, or any set-
tlement agreed upon by BitMover in its sole discretion,
specifically attributable to a covered IP Claim, provided
that you (i) promptly give BitMover written notice of the
IP Claim, (ii) give BitMover the full authority to defend
the IP Claim, and (iii) provide BitMover with all informa-
tion and assistance BitMover requests in connection with
such defense. You shall have the right to hire separate
counsel at your sole expense. If the Software becomes, or
in BitMover's opinion is likely to become, the subject of
an IP Claim that BitMover is required to defend, then Bit-
Mover may (at its option and expense) either: (i) procure
for you the right to continue using the Software; (ii)
rework the Software so as to make it non-infringing while
preserving the original functionality; or (iii) replace the
Software with software that is functionally equivalent in
all material respects; or (d) if none of the foregoing is
practicable in BitMover's reasonable judgment, BitMover
will refund a reasonable amount, not to exceed all amounts
paid for the Software at issue (for Leased Licenses, the
refund shall not exceed fees paid for the then-current Ini-
tial or Renewal Term; for Perpetual Licenses, the license
fee shall be amortized over five years and the refund shall
not exceed the unamortized amount, and after the end of the
fourth year the refund shall not exceed one-fifth of the
license fee).
(b) EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. IF BITMOVER PAYS A REFUND TO YOU PUR-
SUANT TO SECTION 11(A), BITMOVER SHALL HAVE NO FURTHER
OBLIGATION TO YOU WITH RESPECT TO ANY IP CLAIMS. SECTION
11(A) PROVIDES YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR THIRD-
PARTY CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE.
(c) Limited Performance Warranty. BitMover represents and war-
rants for a period of ninety (90) days ("Warranty Period")
that it will make a reasonable effort to ensure the Soft-
ware operates substantially in accordance with the applica-
ble Documentation; provided, that (i) the Software is
installed, implemented and operated in accordance with all
instructions supplied by BitMover; (ii) you notify BitMover
of any such defect within ten (10) calendar days after the
appearance thereof, and in any case within the warranty
period; (iii) you have properly installed all Updates made
available with respect to the Software, and updates recom-
mended by BitMover with respect to any third party software
products (including operating system software) that materi-
ally affect the performance of the Software; (iv) you have
properly maintained all associated equipment, software and
environmental conditions in accordance with applicable
specifications and industry standards; (v) you have not
introduced other equipment or software creating an adverse
impact on the Software; (vi) you have paid all amounts due
hereunder and is not in default of any provision of this
Agreement; (vii) any functional design or specification
provided by you is an accurate and complete rendering of
the relevant features, applicable interfaces and associated
operating environment; and (viii) you have made no changes
nor permitted any changes to be made (other than with the
express written approval of BitMover) to the Software.
Corrections made pursuant to this Section 11(d) shall not
operate to extend the warranty period hereunder.
(d) Warranty Disclaimer. THE WARRANTY SET FORTH ABOVE IS
EXCLUSIVE. NEITHER BITMOVER NOR ITS LICENSORS MAKE ANY
OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE
SOFTWARE. BITMOVER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE FUNCTIONS
CONTAINED IN THE SOFTWARE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR
THAT OPERATION OF THE SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR
ERROR-FREE. BITMOVER MAKES NO WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO
(i) SERVICES, (ii) SOFTWARE WHICH IS LICENSED AT NO COST OR
(iii) EXPERIMENTAL BETA CODE; ALL OF WHICH ARE PROVIDED "AS
IS." EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LAW AND EXCEPT AS
SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION 11, BITMOVER AND ITS
LICENSORS HEREBY DISCLAIM, WITH RESPECT TO ALL SOFTWARE,
SUPPORT SERVICES OR OTHER DELIVERABLES PROVIDED HEREUNDER,
ALL EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, TITLE,
ACCURACY, INTEGRATION OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE
OR ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING, AND ANY WARRANTY
AGAINST INTERFERENCE WITH YOUR QUIET ENJOYMENT OF THE SOFT-
WARE. ANY CHANGES TO THE SOFTWARE NOT AUTHORIZED BY BIT-
MOVER IN WRITING WILL VOID ALL WARRANTIES AS TO SUCH SOFT-
WARE, AND SUCH SOFTWARE IS THEN PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER. TO THE EXTENT THAT BIT-
MOVER MAY NOT DISCLAIM ANY WARRANTY AS A MATTER OF APPLICA-
BLE LAW, THE SCOPE AND DURATION OF SUCH WARRANTY WILL BE
THE MINIMUM PERMITTED UNDER SUCH LAW. THIS LIMITED WAR-
RANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS. YOU MAY HAVE OTHER
RIGHTS, WHICH MAY VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION.
(e) No Hazardous Uses. The Software is not designed to be used
in hazardous environments requiring fail-safe controls
and/or where the failure or inaccuracy of the Software
might result in death, personal injury, environmental dam-
age and/or mass destruction. BITMOVER DISCLAIMS ANY WAR-
RANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF FITNESS FOR SUCH PURPOSES.
You shall defend or settle any claim (including reasonable
attorneys' fees) against BitMover and/or its licensors
arising out of or in connection with your use of the Soft-
ware as described in this Section 11(e).
12. Limitation of Remedies & Liabilities.
The parties acknowledge that the following provisions reflect a
fair allocation of risk, and that BitMover would not be able to
provide the Software on an economic basis without such limita-
tions:
(a) Limitation of Remedies. Except for (i) certain injunctive
relief authorized under Section 10 (Confidentiality) and
(ii) the exclusive remedy for claims of infringement and/or
misappropriation provided in Section 11(a), your sole and
exclusive remedies for BitMover's default under this Agree-
ment shall be (A) to obtain the repair, replacement or cor-
rection of the defective Software or services to the extent
warranted under Section 11 (Indemnification, Exclusive Rem-
edy, Warranty & Disclaimer) or, (B) if BitMover reasonably
determines that such remedy is not economically or techni-
cally feasible, to obtain an equitable partial or full
refund of amounts paid with respect to the Software or ser-
vices at issue.
(b) Limitation of Liabilities. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CON-
TAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT SHALL
BITMOVER OR ITS LICENSORS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD
PARTY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE),
PRODUCT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDEN-
TAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION
DAMAGES FOR THE INABILITY TO ACCESS DATA, LOST SAVINGS,
LOST PROFIT OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) ARISING OUT OF THE
USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE OF THE PROVISION OR
FAILURE TO PROVIDE SUPPORT SERVICES, EVEN IF BITMOVER HAS
BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND EVEN
IF A REMEDY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT IS FOUND TO HAVE
FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. IN NO EVENT SHALL SHALL
THE CUMULATIVE LIABILITY OF BITMOVER AND ITS LICENSORS TO
YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGES RESULTING
FROM ANY CLAIMS, DEMANDS OR ACTIONS RELATED TO, ARISING
FROM, OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT EXCEED THE TOTAL OF THE
FEES ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU, IF ANY, WITHIN THE THEN-CURRENT
TERM OF THE RELEVANT LICENSE. FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SECTION
12(B), FEES PAID WITH RESPECT TO PERPETUAL LICENSES SHALL
BE AMORTIZED OVER A FIVE-YEAR PERIOD FOR THE FIRST FOUR
YEARS OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE LICENSE; THEREAFTER BIT-
MOVER AND ITS LICENSORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY AMOUNT
EXCEEDING ONE-FIFTH OF THE LICENSE FEES PLUS ANY SUPPORT
FEES ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU FOR THE YEAR IN WHICH SUCH CLAIM,
DEMAND OR ACTION ARISES. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS AND
EXCLUSIONS APPLY TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW
IN YOUR JURISDICTION. Nothing in this Agreement limits Bit-
Mover's liability to you in the event of death or personal
injury resulting from BitMover's negligence or fraud.
13. Notices.
Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement,
notices sent to either party shall be effective when delivered
in person or transmitted by telecopier ("fax") machine, one (1)
day after being sent by overnight courier, or two (2) days after

term stated in Section 3 (Term) unless earlier terminated:
(i) by mutual consent; (ii) by your election; or (iii) by

nate automatically as of the date such litigation is filed.
15. Compliance.

ment.
16. Miscellaneous.
(a) Disputes, Choice of Law. Except for certain emergency
judicial relief authorized under Section 10(e) (Injunctive
Relief) which may be brought at any time, the parties agree

resolved by binding arbitration in San Francisco, Califor-
nia. The arbitrator shall be chosen jointly by the par-
ties. The proceedings shall be conducted in accordance

Goods. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE UNITED
STATES AND CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CON-
FLICTS OF LAW, AND ANY ACTION SHALL BE INITIATED AND MAIN-

ees, agents and independent contractors are independent
contractors in relation to the other party with respect to

or between either party and the other party's employees,
agents or independent contractors. Each party shall remain
