- 2. Legal Agreement. This is a legal agreement which allows you,

- conditions. If you cannot agree to abide by what this
- agreement says you should not use or evaluate the Product.
-
- 3. Evaluation Period. You may use a Shareware Copy of the
- Product for an evaluation period of up to 21 days, in order to
- determine whether the Product meets your needs before
- purchasing it. Once the evaluation period ends, you agree to
- either purchase a Registered Copy of the Product, or to stop
- using it. If you have ordered a Registered Copy of the
- Product from us, you may continue to use your Shareware Copy

- may use it on as many computers as are required to perform
- your evaluation. Your 21-day evaluation period begins when you
- first install the Product on one or more computers for
- evaluation purposes. Once the evaluation period is over and
- you purchase the Product, you may only use the product on one
- computer at a time. You may install the product on multiple
- computers as long as there is no possibility of the product
- being used at the same time on different computers. For
- multiple system licenses please contact SciTech software for
- special pricing information.
-
- 5. No Royalties. If the product that you have purchased is a set
- of programming libraries for application development, any
- software that you create using the libraries is owned by you,
- and you may sell without paying any royalties to SciTech
- Software. You may not distribute any part of the Product with
- your software except for appropriate loadable device drivers,
