IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE SOFTWARE:

This Carlson Office Product Software End User License Agreement (this “EULA”) is by and between the entity identified on the applicable invoice, order form, and/or registration form (the “Licensee”) and Carlson Software, Inc. (“Carlson”) and governs the Licensee’s use of the office product software that accompanies this EULA or is identified on the accompanying order form, invoice, and/or registration form (the “Software”). By indicating that You, the person executing this EULA, agree or accept this EULA on behalf of Licensee, You make the representations set forth in Section 9(b) of this EULA and agree that You Yourself and the Licensee will comply with the terms governing the use of the Software set forth in this EULA.

BY CLICKING “I AGREE” OR BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SOFTWARE, YOU AGREE THAT LICENSEE WILL BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS EULA. IF LICENSEE DOES NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS EULA, LICENSEE MUST NOT DOWNLOAD, INSTALL, OR USE THE SOFTWARE AND CARLSON DOES NOT LICENSE YOU OR THE LICENSEE TO USE THE SOFTWARE OR ACCOMPANYING USER MANUALS, TECHNICAL MANUALS, AND ANY OTHER MATERIALS CARLSON PROVIDES THAT DESCRIBE INSTALLATION, OPERATION, USE OR SPECIFICATIONS OF THE SOFTWARE (THE “DOCUMENTATION”).

1. License Grant.
   1. License. The Software is licensed, not sold. All copies of the Software remain the property of Carlson. Licenses of Software may only be obtained from Carlson directly or through it’s authorized distribution network. Licenses obtained from any other source are not legitimate, authorized licenses of the Software. Carlson grants no license (whether expressly or otherwise) under this EULA, and this EULA expressly excludes any right with respect to software that was not acquired lawfully or that is not a legitimate, authorized copy of the Software. One (but not more than one) of the licenses below applies to the Licensee. The one that applies is the one identified on the applicable invoice, order form, or registration page. If the invoice, order form, or registration page does not specify the nature of the license, the license shall be deemed to be for a single Device under this Section. Carlson makes the Documentation available in electronic form at no additional charge. If Licensee desires a printed form of the Documentation, Carlson will provide this for an additional fee. Subject to Licensee’s compliance with each and every term and condition of this EULA, Carlson grants Licensee a personal, limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license without right of sublicense, during the Term of this EULA to install in accordance with the Documentation and use, through an Authorized User, a single copy of the object code version of the Software and the Documentation on a single computing device obtained or provided by Licensee (the “Device”) solely for Licensee’s internal business purposes and solely in accordance with the terms and conditions of this EULA.
   2. Third Party Materials. The Software may include or allow the Licensee to access third party software programs that may be subject to other terms and conditions. Licensee shall not use such third party software programs apart from the Software unless Licensee obtains permission to do so from the third party. Licensee shall not use any third party software programs unless Licensee agrees to comply with and be bound by the license terms for that third party software program. Licensee’s use of open source and other third party software programs shall be governed by the license agreements between Licensee and the applicable third party. Carlson shall have no obligation or liability to You or Licensee with respect to any open source or third party software.
   3. Limitations. Carlson reserves all rights that are not expressly granted in this EULA. No right or license is granted by estoppel or implication. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this EULA, Carlson grants no license (whether expressly or otherwise) under this EULA, and this EULA expressly excludes any right with respect to software that was not acquired lawfully or that is not a legitimate, authorized copy of the Software.
2. Resitrictions.
   1. No copying, reproduction, sublicensing, transfer, or third party use. Except as expressly permitted in the applicable subsection of Section 1(a) and in Section 1(b), Licensee shall not copy the Software or Documentation, in whole or in part. Licensee shall not reproduce, transmit, retransmit, broadcast, synchronize, publicly perform, publicly display, rent, lease, lend, sell, distribute, publish, sublicense, assign, transfer, broker, allow third party use of, or make available to third parties any copies of the Software (or any of its features or functionality) or use the Software in any way except as expressly permitted in the applicable subsection(s) of Section 1 above. Licensee shall not use the Software except for Licensee’s benefit and in no event for the benefit of any third party. Licensee may not enable use of the Software on a Device other than the Device permitted under Section 1(a).
   2. Authorized Users. Licensee shall allow only a single individual employee of Licensee operating the Device on which the Software is loaded to use the Software and accompanying Documentation. The individuals described above in this Section 2(b) are “Authorized Users.” Licensee may not allow any other individual, including any independent contractor or service provider, to access or use the Software or Documentation. Licensee shall communicate the terms of use within this EULA to the Authorized Users and require all Authorized Users to comply with them. Licensee shall be responsible for all acts and omissions of Authorized Users and those using the Software through the accounts of Licensee and its Authorized Users. In certain cases, such as a student license purchased directly by a student or when a Licensee is a sole proprietor licensed under their own name, the Licensee and the Authorized User are the same person.
   3. No Derivative Works. Licensee shall not modify, adapt, edit, improve, fix, amend, alter, enhance, translate, or create any derivative works (whether patentable or not) based on the Software or the Documentation. Licensee shall not combine or incorporate the Software (or any part of it) with any other programs. Licensee shall not separate component parts of the Software for use on more than one device.
   4. No Reverse Engineering. Licensee shall not decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble, decode, adapt, attempt to derive or gain access to the source code of, or decrypt the Software. In jurisdictions where users have the right to do the foregoing and cannot waive that right, the users may exercise the right only to the extent necessary to achieve interoperability with an independent program and only to the extent the information needed to achieve interoperability has not been made available by Carlson within a reasonable period of time upon request.
   5. No Bots. Licensee shall not use any robots, spiders, automated inquiry devices, or repetitive data gathering and extraction tools, routines, scripts, or mechanisms to access the Software.
   6. No Malicious Code. Licensee shall not input, upload, store, or transmit any virus, Trojan horse, worm, trapdoor, time bomb or other computer programming routine intended to damage, interfere with, intercept, or expropriate the Software, or any technology (collectively, “Malicious Code”) or that infringes the intellectual property rights of any third party.
   7. Compliance with Laws. Licensee shall comply with all applicable, international, national, state, and local, laws, regulations, rules, and ordinances and shall not use the Software or the Documentation in violation of any law, regulation, rule, or ordinance.
   8. Intellectual Property Rights. Licensee shall not use the Software, the Documentation, or any Intellectual Property Rights belonging to Carlson or its licensors to develop, design, create, license, or distribute any applications, accessories, or devices for use with the Software.
   9. Limitation on Use. Licensee shall not use the Software or Documentation in any way or for any purpose except as expressly permitted in this EULA and Licensee shall not use the Software in any way for which it was not designed or intended.
   10. Device/Computer. Licensee shall use the Software only on the Device; Licensee shall not allow use of the Software on any other device or transfer of the Software to any other device, and Licensee shall not (and shall not allow) use of the Software on any device that belongs to You or any third party.
   11. Network. Unless Licensee’s license is designated as Section 1(a)(ii), in which case Licensee shall be subject to all attendant limitations and restrictions, Licensee shall not make the Software available over a network, on a hosted basis, over the internet, through any wide area network or virtual private network, by means of virtualization, software-as- a-service, cloud, web hosting, by means of timesharing, service bureau, for public viewing, or in any commercial network services, interactive cable or remote processing services, or in any commercial areas or other technology or service.
   12. Benchmarking. Licensee shall not conduct or disclose any benchmark tests of the Software.
   13. Competing. Licensee shall not develop competing or compatible Software during the term of this EULA. Licensee shall not use the Software to develop or create any product or service to replace or to be used in connection with the Software or any other product or service offered by Carlson. Licensee shall not use the Software or Documentation to analyze the Software for competitive reasons, or for any purpose that would disadvantage Carlson.
   14. Not for High Risk. Unless specifically designated otherwise by Carlson, and then only for the narrowly identified use, the Software and Documentation are not intended for use in connection with any high-risk activity, including, without limitation, and not necessarily limited to, air travel, aircraft navigation or communication, air traffic control, transport management, space travel, vehicle operation systems, fire-fighting, police operations, safety response systems, power plant operation, power generation systems, military operations, rescue operations, hospital or medical operations, safety-critical operations, life-support systems, nuclear facilities or equipment, or the like. Licensee shall not use or allow the use of the Software or Documentation in connection with such high risk activities unless Licensee executes a separate agreement to expressly permit such uses.
   15. Technology Protection. Licensee shall not attempt to avoid, overcome, tamper with, disable, circumvent, remove, disable, or work around any copyright protection, security features, or technological measures used to protect the Intellectual Property Rights or other rights of Carlson or its licensors or those of any third party. Licensee shall not attempt to gain unauthorized access to the source code or other parts of the Software to which Licensee have not been expressly granted access.
   16. No Changing Device or Server. Except as expressly permitted by the terms of the applicable invoice and Section 1(b)(iii), Licensee shall not move the installed Software from the Device to another device without Carlson’s advance written permission. Even if Carlson grants such permission, Licensee shall not allow the Software to be installed on more than one device. Upon Carlson’s request, Licensee shall provide Carlson with information about each Device on which the Software is installed.
   17. Source. Licensee shall obtain all Software (including any updates, upgrades, modifications, or new versions, if applicable), all Documentation, and all other materials related to the foregoing exclusively from Carlson or its designated authorized representative and from no other source.
   18. Territory. If the Licensee entered into this EULA for a discounted fee, or if the applicable invoice, Software, Documentation, or any other documentation specifies a geographical limitation on use, Licensee may only use the Software in the geographical region (the “Territory”) specified by Carlson and in no other Territory. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that Carlson may enforce the Territory restriction through use of geofencing and other security mechanisms, including automatic remote disabling without prior notice to Licensee.
   19. Registration. Licensee shall register the licensed Software and Device with Carlson and provide all requested identifying information about Licensee and the Device (including, if applicable, serial number, signature, fingerprint or other identification of the Device) on which the Software is installed, Licensee’s name, street and address and location, and other information related to Licensee’s use of the Software. Licensee represents and warrants that all information it provides during the registration process is true, correct, and complete.
   20. Non-production. Trial, beta, and student licenses may only be used in non-production environments. Licensees designated as students shall, upon Carlson’s request, provide proof of student status. Licensees designated as universities shall, upon Carlson’s request, provide proof of Authorized User’s student status.
3. Access and Security.
   1. Theft/Loss of Password. Licensee is responsible and liable for all uses of the Software and Documentation made by Authorized Users or other persons who obtained access (directly or indirectly) through Licensee. Without limiting the foregoing, Licensee is responsible and liable for all acts and omissions of Authorized Users as well as other individuals to whom Licensee or an Authorized User provides access, whether permitted by this EULA or in violation of this EULA. Licensee shall promptly report to Carlson the theft, unauthorized access, or loss of any password or user identity required to access the Software. Licensee shall be responsible for any costs incurred by Carlson due to the negligence or reckless disregard of Licensee’s or its Authorized User’s failure to protect the password or user identity. Licensee shall cooperate with Carlson or any person authorized Carlson (including local, state, or federal law enforcement officials) to investigate any alleged theft, misuse, or unauthorized use of the Software or data related thereto.
   2. Security Mechanisms. Carlson reserves the right to take legal steps to eliminate piracy of the Software. Licensee and You acknowledge that the Software may contain technological copy protection or other security features designed to prevent unauthorized use of the Software, including features that may protect against uses prohibited by some or all of Section 2 above. Licensee shall not and shall not attempt to remove, disable, circumvent, or otherwise create or implement any workaround to any security features. Licensee acknowledges that Carlson may collect information about Licensee’s Device and/or Licensee’s use of the Software, including the signature of the Device or workstation, usage logs, and when the Software is in use. Licensee acknowledges that the security features may include geofencing and tools that prevent the Software from working if the Software is installed on an unauthorized device, an unauthorized number of devices, or used in any way in violation of the license granted or the EULA as a whole. The Software may include a security mechanism that can detect the installation or use of copies of the Software and collect and transmit data (including to Carlson) about those copies. The data collected and transmitted may include the type necessary or desirable to verify user compliance, such as the nature of the license granted, the identity of the Authorized User, and personal data. By using the Software, Licensee consents to such detection and collection of data, as well as its transmission and use, including if an illegal copy is detected. Carlson reserves the right to use a hardware lock device, license administrative software, and/or a license authorization key to control access to the Software. Neither You nor Licensee shall take any steps to avoid or defeat the purpose of such measures. Use of any Software without any required lock device or authorization key provided by Licensor is prohibited. If Carlson detects unauthorized use of the Software or Documentation, Licensee shall compensate Carlson. Licensee agrees to indemnify Carlson against any and all losses and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees in connection with any action Carlson takes in regard to Licensee’s unauthorized installation, modification, or use of the Software, the Documentation, or other Intellectual Property Rights propriety to Carlson. Carlson has the right to remotely disable access to pirated copies of Software or violations of this Section 3 without prior notice to Licensee.
   3. Internal Review. At Carlson’s request, Licensee shall review its Authorized Users and shall certify in writing to Carlson (signed by an officer of Licensee) the number of Devices on which the Software is installed and that Licensee is in full compliance with this EULA. If Licensee review reveals any lack of compliance, Licensee shall immediately remedy the noncompliance and provide Carlson with written notice of it as well as all assistance requested by Carlson to evaluate and remedy such noncompliance. If Licensee’s use of the Software exceeds the number of permitted copies or the parameters of permitted use, Licensee shall pay additional fees to Carlson in addition to other remedies available to Carlson at law or in equity.
   4. Audit. During the Term of the EULA and for a period of two years thereafter, Carlson may audit Licensee’s use of the Software and Documentation (electronically or otherwise, through designees or directly) to confirm Licensee’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this EULA (or to confirm that use of the Software has ceased and that copies of the Software have been deleted following expiration or termination of the EULA). Licensee shall cooperate with Carlson in the conduct of the audit and provide all reasonable access Carlson requests to records, systems, equipment, Devices, servers, information, and personnel, including machine identification information, serial numbers, and related information.
   5. Non-compliance. If any internal review or audit reveals that Licensee is using the Software or Documentation in a manner that exceeds the scope of the license granted in this EULA by number of Authorized Users, Devices, or other restrictions, or if Carlson determines that Licensee is using pirated copies of the Software, then Carlson shall have the following remedies, in addition to all other remedies available to it at law or in equity. Within fifteen (15) days of written notice from Carlson, Licensee shall pay Carlson the license fees for the excess use and, unless Carlson terminates the EULA, Licensee shall pay fees to bring Licensee’s use into valid compliance with this EULA. Unless Licensee can prove otherwise with documentation and to Carlson’s satisfaction, the excess use shall be deemed to have begun on the later of the date the EULA went into effect or the date of Carlson’s last audit and continued through the date of the current audit. The rates for the license fees shall be determined without any discounts that might otherwise have applied had Licensee properly licensed the Software. If the fees payable under the foregoing provisions of Section 3(e) exceed five percent (5%) of the fees Licensee paid, Licensee shall pay Carlson the reasonable costs of the audit within fifteen days of Carlson’s written request and Carlson shall have the right to terminate the EULA on written notice to Licensee. If Carlson determines that Licensee has made use of pirated copies of the Software, then Carlson shall have the right to disable access to such copy without notice to Licensee.
      
      Support or Maintenance. Carlson may provide reasonable support services by responding to questions regarding current or recent versions of the Software via phone or email to Licensee. In addition, Carlson may make available to Licensee updates for the version of the Software licensed by Licensee during the Term. If Licensee desires to receive upgrades to the Software during the Term (in the event Carlson chooses to create an upgrade to the Software), License must order and pay additional fees for maintenance services. Any update, upgrade, or other modification to the Software Carlson provides to Licensee shall automatically be deemed part of the Software (and related documentation shall automatically be deemed part of the Documentation) and subject to the terms and conditions of this EULA. If Carlson chooses to provide any technical assistance or support, Carlson reserves the right to charge a fee. Maintenance services do include new versions or releases for that specific Software product. Any maintenance or support services Carlson chooses to provide do not include any new version or new release of the Software that Carlson issues as a new or separate product, which Carlson may determine in its sole discretion. If a Software product is over 5 years old, or if Carlson decides, in its sole discretion, to end the life of any Software product, Carlson may designate this as a Legacy product. In the case of Legacy products, or in the event that Carlson determines, in it’s sole discretion, that circumstances are beyond their control which makes the practicality of providing the maintenance or support services difficult and/or unreasonably time consuming, including, but not necessarily limited to, operating system versions not being compatible to the Software, hardware not up to specifications needed, or any other third party hardware or software compatibility issues, Carlson reserves the right to charge a fee for the support, to limit the amount of support they will provide and/or decline providing support altogether. Carlson expressly reserves and retains all rights not expressly granted in this EULA. The Software may not be shared or used concurrently on different computers.
4. Data. Licensee acknowledges that Carlson may, directly or through the services of third parties, collect and store information about Licensee’s use of the Software and the Device (including without limitation use of commands and which portions of the Software are being used), server, computer, or other equipment on which the Software is installed or through which the Software is accessed or used, whether in the course of registration, providing support or maintenance services, through internal reviews or audits, and/or through the use of security measures or other features included within the Software. You and Licensee agree that Carlson may use such information and data collected for any purpose, including without limitation, improvement of the Software or development of updates, upgrades, or improvements, and/or verification of Licensee’s compliance with the terms of this EULA and enforcement of Carlson’s rights (including Intellectual Property Rights and other rights).
5. Confidentiality.
   1. Confidential Information. Licensee acknowledges that the Software and Documentation, and information provided in connection with them, contain confidential information proprietary to Carlson that Carlson desires to protect from unauthorized access, disclosure, or use, including without limitation, the Software itself and its component parts (such as the source code, techniques, algorithms, processes, and the Software’s Documentation), ideas, concepts, business methods, business processes, systems, criteria, standards, trade secrets, knowhow, inventions, data, information entrusted to Carlson by third parties, and other information that by its nature would reasonably be considered confidential, as well as information marked confidential (collectively, the “Confidential Information”) and that the Confidential Information may be expressed in oral, written, electronic, or other form and may be received through communications with Carlson or otherwise.
   2. Exclusions and Exemptions. Confidential Information shall not include information Licensee can prove through written records existed at the time of disclosure that is: (a) information that is or becomes generally known to the public other than through breach of a duty of confidentiality to Carlson; or (b) information Licensee had in Licensee’s possession at the time of disclosure that was not acquired from Carlson or a third party that owed a duty of confidentiality to Carlson. If a court order or similar legal obligation requires Licensee to disclose Confidential Information, Licensee must first give Carlson prompt written notice and the opportunity to seek a protective order or obtain other relief to preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential Information. If Licensee is still obligated to disclose any Confidential Information, Licensee shall limit disclosure to only that Confidential Information that You and Licensee are legally obligated to disclose and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to impose obligations of confidentiality on the recipients.
   3. Obligations. Licensee shall not disclose the Confidential Information to any third party or allow any third party to access or use it. Licensee shall limit disclosure of the Confidential Information to Licensee’s employees who have a need to know it and who are under written obligations to protect it at least to the same extent required under this EULA . Licensee shall protect and safeguard Carlson’s Confidential Information (including without limitation the Software) from unauthorized access, disclosure, loss, or use at least to the same extent and in the same manner Licensee protect Licensee’s own similar information, but in no event using less than commercially reasonable methods. If Licensee becomes aware of any unauthorized access to, or disclosure of, loss of, or use of any Confidential Information in Licensee’s possession or control, Licensee shall promptly take all appropriate actions to protect against the further dissemination and use of such Confidential Information and notify Carlson immediately. Licensee’s obligations to protect the Confidential Information received or accessed during the term of this EULA from unauthorized access, disclosure, or use shall survive termination or expiration of this EULA for any reason.
   4. Restricted Use. Licensee may use the Confidential Information only for the limited purpose expressly permitted under this EULA (if any), and shall not use it to compete with Carlson or in any way potentially detrimental to Carlson. Licensee acknowledges that title to the Confidential Information and any derivative works, improvements upon or modifications to the Confidential Information shall remain at all times with Carlson and that the Confidential Information has value. Upon Carlson’s request at any time, and upon the expiration or termination of this EULA for any reason, Licensee shall return to Carlson all Confidential Information or, at Carlson’s option, destroy any materials containing, regarding or derived from the Confidential Information.
6. Intellectual Property.

Licensee shall not remove, alter, obscure, or otherwise interfere with any copyright, trademark, patent, or other Intellectual Property Rights notices affixed to, within, or associated with the Software (or any updates, upgrades, or modifications thereto) or Documentation whether in output, metadata, or online or hard copy attribution pages for the Software or otherwise.
   4. Protection. Licensee shall safeguard and protect the Software and Documentation against all unauthorized access, disclosure, loss, and use, including against infringement, misappropriation, theft, and misuse.

International business generates a significant portion of the Carlson’s revenue, and a violation of any US Export and Trade Controls law, rule, or regulation (“Laws”) may jeopardize the ability of Carlson to sell its products globally and may result in the imposition of significant civil penalties, criminal fines and imprisonment, suspension of export privileges, and harm to the Carlson’s reputation.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer shall not (a) directly or indirectly export, re-export, transship, transfer, or otherwise deliver the Software, Documentation, or technology or any portion thereof to any Embargoed Targets currently included on the SDN List or (b) broker, finance, or otherwise facilitate any transaction in violation of any Economic Sanctions Laws.
