1.   LICENSE TERMS. Bull SAS grants to You and You agree to accept a non-exclusive and non-transferable (except as otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement) right and license to use the object code version only of the Software that You have purchased in accordance with the applicable license and terms and conditions detailed below.

The Software may contain certain software licensed by Microsoft.  You warrant that You are not licensing Microsoft products under this Agreement and that any copies of Microsoft software that You receive as a result of licensing the Software do not entitle You to maintain on Your computer systems any more copies of Microsoft software than You may have previously licensed from Microsoft or other third parties.  Microsoft is an intended third party beneficiary of this Agreement with the right to enforce warranties and any other provision of the EULA and to verify Your compliance with same.

(i) Unless this software is provided to You for beta, demonstration, test, or evaluation purposes or is labeled “Not for Resale” as further described herein, You agree to use the Software solely for Your internal data center operations and to restrict any access to the Software, documentation, or other user information accompanying the Software only to those of your employees having a demonstrable need to have such access for your internal data processing operations.  You agree that you shall not permit any access to the Software, documentation, or other user information accompanying the Software to any person engaged in product research, development, support, sales, marketing, or other functions not directly related to your internal data processing operations.  You also agree not to use the Software, documentation, or user information accompanying the Software to assist, directly or indirectly, in the development or design of any computer hardware or software program including, but not limited to, a program that provides or is intended to provide or include a similar feature or functionality as the Software.

Bull SAS shall have no obligation to support, maintain, or provide other assistance regarding any limited duration licenses, site licenses, beta, evaluation, test, or demonstration Software products. IF THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED TO YOU FOR DEMONSTRATION, EVALUATION OR TRIAL PURPOSES OR IS LABELED “NOT FOR RESALE,” IN NO EVENT WILL BULL SAS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES FOR ANY CAUSE OR FOR ANY CLAIM BY BORROWER OR FOR ANY THIRD PARTY CLAIM, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY DIRECT DAMAGES, ACTUAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, OR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF BULL SAS HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

(k) In the event You license the Software on a capacity basis, if you exceed the maximum capacity purchased, the Software may cease to operate normally and/or performance may be impaired; provided however that reducing Your usage to the purchased capacity level or purchasing additional capacity will return the Software to its normal operation. Any excess capacity usage above the purchased maximum shall entitle Bull SAS to invoice You for licensed capacity and maintenance and support amounts owed, and if You fail to pay for the excess usage, Bull SAS shall be entitled to any self-help or other remedies available. You shall provide Bull SAS with any usage reports immediately upon request (and You shall not interfere with any automated reporting features) in order to enable Bull SAS to verify Your capacity usage.

 

4.   AUDIT. At the request of Bull SAS You will give Bull SAS reasonable access to Your records and systems or provide Bull SAS with a written report, including the name and type license, to verify the Software is being used pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Nothing in this section shall be deemed to limit any legal or equitable remedies available to Bull SAS for a violation of this Agreement.

 

5.      COPYRIGHT AND OWNERSHIP. Title to the Software and its Documentation, and patents, copyrights and all other property rights applicable thereto, shall at all times remain solely and exclusively with Bull SAS and/or its licensors, and You shall not take any action inconsistent with such title. No rights are granted to You other than a license to use the Software upon the terms expressly set forth in this Agreement. Such licensors, in addition to any other rights or remedies available to them, are third party beneficiaries of this Agreement for their respective software and may have the right to enforce such terms against You. The structure, sequence, organization and source code of the Software are valuable trade secrets of Bull SAS and/or its licensors. The Software is protected by copyright laws and international treaty provisions. You shall not remove any patent, copyright, or trademark notices or other proprietary notices from the Software or its Documentation, and You must reproduce such notices on all copies or extracts of the Software or its Documentation. You do not acquire any rights of ownership in the Software.

 

6.   U.S. GOVERNMENT RIGHTS. If the Software or its Documentation is acquired by or on behalf of the United States Government, the Government agrees that such Software and Documentation is "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer software documentation" and that use, modification, duplication and disclosure of the Software and its Documentation by the U.S. Government is subject to restrictions set forth in this Agreement or in a written agreement to the contrary specifying the Government's right to use the Software and its Documentation, pursuant to FAR § 12.212(a) and/or DFARS § 227.7202-1(a), as applicable. Bull SAS reserves all unpublished rights under U.S. copyright laws.

Should You breach any of its obligations, this license shall terminate and You agree to destroy or return all copies of the Software and all materials provided for or with the Software upon notification and demand by Bull SAS.

 

8.   LIMITED WARRANTY. For the period of thirty (30) days from the date of Your receipt of the Software, Bull SAS warrants that the Software, when properly used, will operate in all material respects in conformity with its Documentation when operated in its specified environment, and the Software CD-ROM media shall be free of defects. This warranty does not apply insofar as: (a) the Software is subjected to misuse, neglect, accident, or exposure to environmental conditions beyond those specified in the Documentation; (b) claims resulting from acts or omissions caused by persons other than Bull SAS or from products, material or software not provided by Bull SAS; (c) a version of the Software is used that does not include all updates available from Bull SAS; (d) the Software is modified or; (e) the Software is used on an operating system other than the system and version specified in the Documentation or on a machine not described in the Documentation. Bull SAS warrants that Software telephone support and training services ("Related Service(s)") will be performed by qualified personnel in a professional manner. In the event of non-conforming Software or Related Service(s), or if the media is defective, Your sole remedy and Bull SAS' exclusive responsibility shall be, as applicable and at Bull SAS' option, (i) replacement of the affected Software or media, or (ii) re-performance of the Related Service(s) at no additional charge, or (iii) a refund of the fees paid for the affected Software or Related Service(s) on a pro rata basis over a 60 month useful life. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of relief, incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to You.

 

EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION, THE SOFTWARE AND ANY THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE ARE PROVIDED TO YOU "AS IS" WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE. BULL SAS AND ITS LICENSORS DISCLAIM ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABLE QUALITY, NONINFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND WHETHER ARISING BY STATUTE OR IN LAW OR AS A RESULT OF A COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE, WITH RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE, ITS DOCUMENTATION, SUPPORT OR OTHER SERVICES RELATED TO THE SOFTWARE. NO WARRANTY IS MADE REGARDING THE RESULTS OF SOFTWARE OR RELATED SERVICES OR THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL OPERATE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR FREE OR LACK OF VIRUSES OR THAT ALL ERRORS IN THE SOFTWARE WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT THE SOFTWARE'S FUNCTIONALITY WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO (i) REGULARLY BACK UP DATA MAINTAINED ON ANY COMPUTER SYSTEM USING THE SOFTWARE AND (ii) ADEQUATELY TEST PRIOR TO DEPLOYMENT EACH PRODUCTION VERSION OF THE SOFTWARE IN A CONFIGURATION WHICH REASONABLY SIMULATES YOUR PLANNED DEPLOYMENT OR PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT. THE PROVISIONS SET FORTH ABOVE STATE BULL SAS’ AND ITS LICENSORS’ ENTIRE RESPONSIBILITY AND YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO ANY BREACH OF ANY WARRANTY. This limited warranty gives You specific legal rights. You may have other rights that vary among jurisdictions. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied conditions or warranties, statutory or otherwise, so the above exclusions may not apply to You.

 

9.      LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY. BULL SAS AND ITS LICENSOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DIRECT DAMAGES ARISING FROM ANY SOFTWARE PRODUCT OR RELATED SERVICE BEYOND THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR SUCH SOFTWARE PRODUCT OR RELATED SERVICE. NEITHER BULL SAS, ITS SUBSIDIARIES NOR ANY OF ITS LICENSORS SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OR INACCURACY OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. NEITHER BULL SAS, ITS LICENSORS, NOR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES TOTAL LIABILITY, IF ANY, ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE OR RELATED SERVICES SHALL EXCEED THE FEES PAID BY YOU FOR THE AFFECTED SOFTWARE OR RELATED SERVICE(S) GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. THE FOREGOING RESTRICTIONS, DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS SHALL REMAIN IN FORCE EVEN IN THE EVENT OF A FUNDAMENTAL BREACH BY BULL SAS OR A BREACH BY BULL SAS OF A CONDITION OR FUNDAMENTAL TERM HEREUNDER. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of indirect, special, incidental, consequential or exemplary damages or the limitation of liability to specified amounts, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to You.

 

10.      GOVERNING LAW; COMPLETE AGREEMENT; SEVERABILITY; WAIVER. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the state of France without regard to its conflict of laws rules or the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. This Agreement will be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Paris (France). The terms of this Agreement supersede the terms of any purchase order or other document issued or signed by You to authorize Your purchase of the license of the Software or related services. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable, such provision shall be limited, modified or severed as necessary to eliminate its unenforceability, and all other provisions shall remain unaffected. The failure or delay of either party to exercise any of its rights shall not be deemed a waiver of such rights and no waiver of any breach of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other breach.
