(e) A "License Key" is an alphanumeric value required by the Software Product. An "Evaluation License Key" is a License Key that permits operation of the Software Product for a period of time. A "Deployment License Key" is a License Key that permits operation during the License Term.
2. CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS
(a) Licensee may not, and Licensee may not permit others, to (i) reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software Product, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the Software Product, except to the extent (if at all) expressly permitted under any applicable law. If applicable law expressly permits such activities, any information so discovered or derived shall be deemed to be the confidential proprietary information of Tactical and Licensee must promptly disclose such information to Tactical.
(b) Any attempt by Licensee to transfer any of Licensee’s rights, duties or obligations hereunder is void. Licensee shall not rent, lease or loan the Software Product.
(c) Licensee may not, and Licensee may not permit others, to (i) copy, modify, translate, or create derivative works from, the Software Product or the Documentation, or (ii) remove any proprietary notices in, or labels on, the Software Product or the Documentation, including copyright, trademark or patent notices.

5. TITLE
The Software Product and the Documentation are licensed, not sold. Title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights in and to the Software Product and the Documentation remain with Tactical. The Software Product and the Documentation are protected by the copyright and other intellectual property rights laws of the United States and international copyright treaties and international law.
6. NO VIRUSES, WORMS OR TROJAN HORSES
As of the date Licensee first downloads the Software Product or first receives a copy of the Software Product from Tactical, to Tactical’s knowledge, the Software Product does not contain any virus, worm, or Trojan horse which would cause damage to Licensee’s software or data.
7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY WARRANTIES
Tactical represents and warrants to Licensee that Tactical owns or has all necessary rights, authorizations and licenses to enable Tactical to license the Software Product and Documentation in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and that the Software Product and Documentation do not infringe or otherwise violate the copyright rights of any third party.
8. WARRANTY; LIMITATIONS
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Software Product is delivered to Licensee for the Evaluation Period “AS IS”, without any warranty of any kind, whether express or implied. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Limited Warranties (as defined in Section 8(d)) do not apply during the Evaluation Period.
(b) Tactical warrants that the Software Product will perform substantially in accordance with the Documentation for a period of ninety (90) days from date Licensee acquires its initial copy of the Software Product (by download, delivery of physical media containing the Software Product, or other method of delivery).
(c) In addition, Tactical warrants that the storage media on which the Software Product is delivered directly from Tactical to Licensee shall be free from defects for a period of ninety (90) days from date Licensee acquires its initial copy of the Software Product on such storage media directly from Tactical. In the event that such media does not conform to such warranty, Licensee shall return such non-conforming media to Tactical, and Tactical’s entire liability and Licensee’s exclusive remedy shall be, at Tactical’s expense, to replace such non-conforming media.
(d) EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN SECTION 6, 7, 8(B), and 8(C) (collectively, the "Limited Warranties"), THERE ARE NO WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS OR REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED BY STATUTE, USAGE, CUSTOM OF TRADE OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT OR DOCUMENTATION, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS OF WORKMANSHIP, MERCHANTABILITY, SUITABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, DURABILITY, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, TACTICAL DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT WILL MEET ALL OF LICENSEE’S NEEDS OR THAT OPERATION OF THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT WILL BE ERROR-FREE. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS AGREEMENT.
9. REMEDY
In the event of a breach of any of the Limited Warranties (other than the Limited Warranty set forth in Section 8(c)), Tactical’s entire liability and Licensee’s exclusive remedy shall be, at Tactical’s option and expense, to either (a) refund the amount of the license fee actually paid by Licensee for the non-conforming Software Product (in which event this Agreement shall terminate), (b) repair the non-conforming Software Product by providing a patch, work-around or other reasonable solution, or (c) replace the non-conforming Software Product. The Limited Warranties do not apply in the event that non-conformance of the Software Product with a Limited Warranty results from accident, abuse, or misapplication (including use of the Software Product together with a software operating system or software and hardware environment which does not meet the specifications set forth in the Documentation). Any replacement Software Product will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period or thirty (30) days from the date on which the replacement Software Product is delivered, whichever is longer.
10. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL TACTICAL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT, THE DOCUMENTATION, OR THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF TACTICAL HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW A LIMITATION ON CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO LICENSEE. IN NO EVENT WILL TACTICAL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER IN EXCESS OF THE AMOUNT PAID TO TACTICAL FOR THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT THAT IS THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THE CLAIM OR THAT IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE CAUSE OF ACTION.
11. TERM AND TERMINATION
(a) This Agreement shall become effective upon installation of the Software Product and shall terminate automatically and immediately upon breach of this Agreement by Licensee, if any. Licensee may terminate this Agreement for convenience by removal of the Software Product from all Licensee’s systems upon fifteen (15) days prior written notice to Tactical.
(b) Licensee agrees that, in the event of any termination of the license of the Software Product (including termination resulting from the termination of this Agreement), Licensee shall, within fifteen (15) days following such termination, purge all copies of the Software Product and the Documentation from all computers and storage media on which Licensee has maintained them, destroy all copies of the Software Product and the Documentation, and promptly certify in writing to Tactical that the same have been purged and destroyed.
(c) Termination of this Agreement shall not relieve either party of any payment or other obligation under this Agreement which was to have been performed by such party prior to the termination. All provisions of this Agreement which by their nature are intended to survive the termination of this Agreement (including the provisions of Sections 2, 5, 8(c), 9, 10, 11(b), this 11(c), 12, 13, and 14) shall survive such termination.
12. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
(a) If any dispute arises between Tactical and Licensee pertaining to this Agreement which Tactical and Licensee are unable to resolve amicably, such dispute shall be submitted to arbitration before a single arbitrator selected in accordance with the then-prevailing Rules of Commercial Arbitration of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration proceeding shall take place in Manchester, New Hampshire or such other location as Tactical and Licensee may mutually agree.
(b) The arbitrator shall not contravene or vary in any respect any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement. The award of the arbitrators shall be final and binding upon Tactical and Licensee, and judgment upon any award rendered therein may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction, including the New Hampshire Superior Court.
(c) Neither this arbitration provision nor a pending arbitration shall prevent either party from obtaining injunctive relief for any matter at any time.
13. RESTRICTIONS ON EXPORT AND USE
Licensee acknowledges and accepts responsibility for complying with all import and export statutes, regulations, treaties and other laws, both foreign and domestic, (collectively, the “Export Laws”) and agrees to not use or otherwise export or re-export, directly or indirectly, the Software Product except in accordance with the Export Laws. In particular, but without limitation, the Software Product may not be exported or re-exported, directly or indirectly,
(a) into (or to a national or resident of) any country subject to sanctions by the U.S. Treasury or any U.S. embargoed country, or
(b) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Bureau of Industry and Security Denied Persons List or the U.S. Bureau of Industry and Security Unverified List, or
(c) for any end-use that is prohibited by United States law or the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Software Product was obtained.
Licensee represents and warrants that Licensee is not located in, under control of, or a national or resident of any such country or on any such list and that no U.S. federal agency has suspended, revoked, or denied Licensee's import or export privileges. At any time that Licensee fails to meet this condition, this Agreement is immediately terminated by Tactical without notice to Licensee and the right of assignment in 14(d) is null and void.
14. MISCELLANEOUS
(a) If any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and shall not affect the other provisions of this Agreement.
(b) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under New Hampshire law, without regard for its conflicts of law provisions. The application of the United Nations Convention of Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
(c) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Tactical and Licensee regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior or simultaneous representations, discussions, negotiations, and agreements, whether written or oral.
(d) Licensee may assign this Agreement only to any entity to which it transfers all or substantially all of its assets, provided the assignee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Otherwise, Licensee may not assign or have assumed, voluntarily, by operation of law, in bankruptcy or otherwise, any rights or delegate any duties under this Agreement without Tactical’s prior written consent, and any attempt to do so without such consent will be null and void. This Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
(e) This Agreement may be amended or supplemented only by a writing that is signed by duly authorized representatives of both parties. No term or provision hereof will be considered waived by either party, and no breach excused by either party, unless such waiver or consent is in writing signed on behalf of the party against whom the waiver is asserted. No consent by either party to, or waiver of, a breach by either party, will constitute a consent to, waiver of, or excuse of any other, different, or subsequent breach by either party.
