- NETSCAPE CLIENT SOFTWARE END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT
- REDISTRIBUTION OR RENTAL NOT PERMITTED
-
- This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of your
- use of the accompanying Netscape client software product(s)
- (the "Software"). Any third party software that is provided
- with the Software with such third party's license agreement
- (in either electronic or printed form) is included for use at
- your option. If you choose to use such software, then such use
- shall be governed by such third party's license agreement and
- not by this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, for residents
- of Europe, the Middle East and Africa, "Netscape" shall mean
- Netscape Communications Ireland Limited; for residents of Japan,
- "Netscape" shall mean Netscape Communications (Japan), Ltd.; for
- residents of all other countries, "Netscape" shall mean Netscape
- Communications Corporation. For purposes of this Agreement,
- "Licensor" shall be defined as follows: If you have acquired
- a third party product or service and such product or service
- included the Software, then such third party shall be the
- Licensor. Otherwise, Netscape shall be the Licensor.
-
- LICENSE GRANT. Licensor grants you a non-exclusive and
- non-transferable license to use the Software and accompanying
- documentation ("Documentation"), subject to the limitations
- below. If the Software is Netscape Navigator, Netscape Navigator
- Gold or Netscape Communicator Standard Edition software ("Standard
- Software"), or it is Netscape Communicator Professional Edition
- software which you are using for a limited time for the purpose of
- evaluating whether to purchase an ongoing license to that product
- ("Evaluation Software"), there is no fee for this license. The
- evaluation period for use of Evaluation Software by or on
- behalf of a commercial entity is limited to ninety (90) days;
- evaluation use by others is not subject to this ninety (90) day
- limit. If the Software is any Netscape client software product
- other than Standard Software or Evaluation Software, such as
- Netscape Communicator Professional Edition, Netscape Communicator
- Internet Access Edition, Netscape Communicator Deluxe Edition,
- or Netscape Publishing Suite ("Professional Software"), this
- license grant is subject to the payment of applicable license
- fees. Unless you have purchased a subscription for the Software,
- the license granted under this Agreement does not grant you
- any right to any enhancement or update to the Software. If you
- are using Standard Software or Evaluation Software, you are
- not entitled to hard-copy documentation, support or telephone
- assistance unless the entity from which you received Standard
- Software provides you with support. In addition, if the Software
- was included with a third party product or service, you may use
- the Software only with such product or service.
-
- LIMITATIONS ON USE.
-
- With respect to all Software, you may not:

- employee, then you may allow that employee to use a copy
- of Netscape Communicator Professional Edition at home.

- computer at work or downloaded from the Netscape web site
- at no cost. You may not duplicate the Documentation for
- home users, and no technical assistance will be provided

- DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY FOR STANDARD AND EVALUATION SOFTWARE.
- Standard Software and Evaluation Software are provided
- on an "AS IS" basis, without warranty of any kind, including
- without limitation the warranties that the Standard Software
- and Evaluation Software are free of defects, merchantable,
- fit for a particular purpose or non-infringing. The entire risk
- as to the quality and performance of the Standard Software and
- Evaluation Software is borne by you. Should the Standard Software
- or Evaluation Software prove defective in any respect, you and not
- Licensor or its suppliers assume the entire cost of any service
- and repair. In addition, the security mechanisms implemented
- by the Standard Software and Evaluation Software have inherent
- limitations, and you must determine that the Standard Software
- and Evaluation Software sufficiently meet your requirements. This
- disclaimer of warranty constitutes an essential part of this
- Agreement. No use of the Standard Software or Evaluation Software
- is authorized hereunder except under this Disclaimer.
-
- LIMITED WARRANTY FOR PROFESSIONAL SOFTWARE. If license fees
- have been paid, Licensor warrants that for a period of ninety
- (90) days from the date of acquisition, the Professional
- Software, if operated as directed, will substantially achieve
- the functionality described in the Documentation. Licensor does
- not warrant, however, that your use of the Professional Software
- will be uninterrupted or that the operation of the Professional
- Software will be error-free or secure. In addition, the security
- mechanisms implemented by the Professional Software have inherent
- limitations, and you must determine that the Professional Software
- sufficiently meets your requirements. Licensor also warrants that
- the media containing the Professional Software, if provided by
- Licensor, is free from defects in material and workmanship and
- will so remain for ninety (90) days from the date you acquired
- the Professional Software. Licensor's sole liability for any
- breach of this warranty shall be, in Licensor's sole discretion:
- (i) to replace your defective media or Professional Software;
- or (ii) to advise you how to achieve substantially the same
- functionality with the Professional Software as described in
- the Documentation through a procedure different from that set
- forth in the Documentation; or (iii) for individual consumers,
- if the above remedies are impracticable, to refund the license
- fee you paid for the Professional Software. Repaired, corrected,
- or replaced Professional Software and Documentation shall be
- covered by this limited warranty for the period remaining under
- the warranty that covered the original Professional Software,
- or if longer, for thirty (30) days after the date (a) of delivery
- to you of the repaired or replaced Professional Software, or (b)
- Licensor advised you how to operate the Professional Software
- so as to achieve substantially the same functionality described
- in the Documentation.
-
- Only if you inform Licensor of your problem with the
- Professional Software during the applicable warranty period
- and provide evidence of the date you purchased a license to the
- Professional Software will Licensor be obligated to honor this
- warranty. Licensor will use reasonable commercial efforts to
- repair, replace, advise or, for individual consumers, refund
- pursuant to the foregoing warranty within thirty (30) days of
- being so notified.
-
- If any modifications are made to the Professional Software by you
- during the warranty period; if the media is subjected to accident,
- abuse, or improper use; or if you violate the terms of this
- Agreement, then this warranty shall immediately terminate. This
- warranty shall not apply if the Professional Software is used
- on or in conjunction with hardware or software other than the
- unmodified version of hardware and software with which the
- Professional Software was intended to be used as described in
- the Documentation.
-
- THIS IS A LIMITED WARRANTY, AND IT IS THE ONLY WARRANTY MADE BY
- LICENSOR OR ITS SUPPLIERS. LICENSOR MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES,
- EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF
- MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND
- NONINFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTIES' RIGHTS. YOU MAY HAVE OTHER
- STATUTORY RIGHTS. HOWEVER, TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW,
- THE DURATION OF STATUTORILY REQUIRED WARRANTIES, IF ANY, SHALL
- BE LIMITED TO THE ABOVE LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD. MOREOVER, IN NO
- EVENT WILL WARRANTIES PROVIDED BY LAW, IF ANY, APPLY UNLESS THEY
- ARE REQUIRED TO APPLY BY STATUTE NOTWITHSTANDING THEIR EXCLUSION
- BY CONTRACT. NO DEALER, AGENT, OR EMPLOYEE OF LICENSOR IS
- AUTHORIZED TO MAKE ANY MODIFICATIONS, EXTENSIONS, OR ADDITIONS
- TO THIS LIMITED WARRANTY.
-
- ENCRYPTION. If the Software contains cryptographic features,
- then you may wish to obtain a signed digital certificate from a
- certificate authority or a certificate server in order to
- utilize certain of the cryptographic features. You may be
- charged additional fees for certification services. You are
- responsible for maintaining the security of the environment in
- which the Software is used and the integrity of the private key
- file used with the Software. In addition, the use of digital
- certificates is subject to the terms specified by the certificate
- provider, and there are inherent limitations in the capabilities
- of digital certificates. If you are sending or receiving digital
- certificates, you are responsible for familiarizing yourself with
- and evaluating such terms and limitations. If the Software is a
- Netscape product with FORTEZZA, you will also need to obtain PC
- Card Readers and FORTEZZA Crypto Cards to enable the FORTEZZA
- features.
-
- TITLE. Title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights
- in the Software and Documentation shall remain in Netscape
- and/or its suppliers. You acknowledge such ownership and
- intellectual property rights and will not take any action to
- jeopardize, limit or interfere in any manner with Netscape's
- or its suppliers' ownership of or rights with respect to the
- Software and Documentation. The Software and Documentation are
- protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws and by
- international treaties. Title and related rights in the content
- accessed through the Software is the property of the applicable

- all copies of the Software and Documentation. Your obligations
- to pay accrued charges and fees shall survive any termination of
- this Agreement.
-
- EXPORT CONTROLS. None of the Software or underlying information
- or technology may be downloaded or otherwise exported or
- reexported (i) into (or to a national or resident of) Cuba, Iraq,
- Libya, Sudan, North Korea, Iran, Syria or any other country to
- which the U.S. has embargoed goods; or (ii) to anyone on the U.S.
- Treasury Department's list of Specially Designated Nationals or
- the U.S. Commerce Department's Table of Denial Orders. By
- downloading or using the Software, you are agreeing to the
- foregoing and you are representing and warranting that you are
- not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident
- of any such country or on any such list. In addition, you are
- responsible for complying with any local laws in your
- jurisdiction which may impact your right to import, export or
- use the Software, and you represent that you have complied with
- any regulations or registration procedures required by applicable
- law to make this license enforceable.
-
- If the Software is identified as a not-for-export product (for
- example, on the box, media or in the installation process), then,
- unless you have an exemption from the United States Department of
- State, the following applies: EXCEPT FOR EXPORT TO CANADA FOR
- USE IN CANADA BY CANADIAN CITIZENS, THE SOFTWARE AND ANY
- UNDERLYING TECHNOLOGY MAY NOT BE EXPORTED OUTSIDE THE UNITED
- STATES OR TO ANY FOREIGN ENTITY OR "FOREIGN PERSON" AS DEFINED
- BY U.S. GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION,
- ANYONE WHO IS NOT A CITIZEN, NATIONAL OR LAWFUL PERMANENT RESIDENT
- OF THE UNITED STATES. BY DOWNLOADING OR USING THE SOFTWARE, YOU
- ARE AGREEING TO THE FOREGOING AND YOU ARE WARRANTING THAT YOU ARE

-
- LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO
- LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER TORT, CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL LICENSOR
- OR ITS SUPPLIERS OR RESELLERS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON
- FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF
- ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF
- GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY
- AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES. IN NO EVENT WILL
- LICENSOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES IN EXCESS OF THE AMOUNT
- LICENSOR RECEIVED FROM YOU FOR A LICENSE TO THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF
- LICENSOR SHALL HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
- DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY CLAIM BY ANY THIRD PARTY. THIS LIMITATION OF
- LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL
- INJURY RESULTING FROM LICENSOR'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT
- APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO
- NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR
- CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT
- APPLY TO YOU.
-
- HIGH RISK ACTIVITIES. The Software is not fault-tolerant and
- is not designed, manufactured or intended for use or resale
- as on-line control equipment in hazardous environments requiring
- fail-safe performance, such as in the operation of nuclear
- facilities, aircraft navigation or communication systems, air
- traffic control, direct life support machines, or weapons
- systems, in which the failure of the Software could lead directly
- to death, personal injury, or severe physical or environmental
- damage ("High Risk Activities"). Accordingly, Licensor and its
- suppliers specifically disclaim any express or implied warranty
- of fitness for High Risk Activities.
-
- MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement represents the complete agreement
- concerning the license granted hereunder and may be amended only
- by a writing executed by both parties. THE ACCEPTANCE OF ANY
- PURCHASE ORDER PLACED BY YOU IS EXPRESSLY MADE CONDITIONAL ON
- YOUR ASSENT TO THE TERMS SET FORTH HEREIN, AND NOT THOSE IN
- YOUR PURCHASE ORDER. If any provision of this Agreement is held
- to be unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the
- extent necessary to make it enforceable. Unless otherwise agreed
- in writing, all disputes relating to this Agreement (excepting
- any dispute relating to intellectual property rights) shall be
- subject to final and binding arbitration in Santa Clara County,
- California, under the auspices of JAMS/EndDispute, with the
- losing party paying all costs of arbitration. This Agreement
- shall be governed by California law, excluding conflict of
- law provisions (except to the extent applicable law, if any,
- provides otherwise). The application of the United Nations
- Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is
- expressly excluded.
-
- U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS. The Software is a "commercial item,"
- as that term is defined in 48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting
- of "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer
- software documentation," as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R.
- 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R.
