IBM International License Agreement for Services Programs
Part 1 - General Terms
-------------------------------------------------------------------
PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE PROGRAM. IBM WILL ONLY LICENSE THE PROGRAM TO YOU IF YOU FIRST ACCEPT THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. REGARDLESS OF HOW YOU ACQUIRE THE PROGRAM (ELECTRONICALLY, PRELOADED, ON MEDIA OR OTHERWISE), BY USING IT YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS.
The Program is owned by International Business Machines Corporation or one of its subsidiaries (IBM) or IBM's Suppliers, and is copyrighted and licensed, not sold. The PROGRAM consists of the following, including features and any whole or partial copies:
1. machine-readable instructions;
2. a collection of machine-readable data, such as a data base; and
3. related licensed materials, including documentation and listings, in any form.
The term "Program" includes an IBM Program and any non-IBM Program that IBM may provide to you. IBM grants you a nonexclusive, nontransferable license under the terms stated below to the Program in the country in which you acquire it.
This Agreement is the complete and exclusive agreement regarding a Program and replaces any prior oral or written communications between you and IBM. For a change to be valid, both you and IBM must sign it.
This Agreement includes Part 1 - General Terms and Part 2 - Country Unique Terms. The terms of Part 2 may replace or modify those of Part 1.
1. License
Under this license, you may: 1) use the Program (and any backup copy of it) only in conjunction with IBM's provision of warranty and maintenance services; 2) use the Program only on the machine for which it is provided; and 3) make one copy of the Program for backup purposes, provided you reproduce the copyright notice and any other legend of ownership on each copy of the Program. You agree not to do any of the following: 1) use or copy the Program except as provided in this Agreement; 2) modify or merge the Program; 3) reverse assemble, reverse compile, or otherwise translate the Program except as specifically permitted by law without the possibility of contractual waiver; 4) sublicense or assign the license for the Program; or 5) distribute the Program to any third party.
This license will begin with your first use of the Program and end when the machine for which it is provided 1) is no longer covered by IBM warranty or maintenance services or 2) is removed from productive use within your business enterprise.
2. No Warranty
SUBJECT TO ANY STATUTORY WARRANTIES WHICH CANNOT BE EXCLUDED, IBM MAKES NO WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE WARRANTY OF NON-INFRINGEMENT AND THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, REGARDING THE PROGRAM.
This exclusion also applies to any of IBM's subcontractors, suppliers or program developers (collectively called "Suppliers").
3. Limitation of Liability
NEITHER IBM NOR ITS SUPPLIERS WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST PROFITS, LOST SAVINGS, OR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR OTHER ECONOMIC CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF IBM IS INFORMED OF THEIR POSSIBILITY. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
4. Use of Data
You authorize us to use the data collected by the Program for problem determination or other system performance support.
5. General
There will be no additional charge for use of the Program for the duration of this license. IBM may terminate this license immediately if you fail to comply with the terms of this Agreement. If we do so, you agree to immediately destroy the Program and any backup copy you made. Neither you nor IBM is responsible for failure to fulfill any obligations due to causes beyond its control.
You may not export the Program.
The laws of the country in which you acquired the Program govern this Agreement, except: 1) in Australia, the laws of the State or Territory in which the transaction is performed govern this Agreement; 2) in Central Europe and Russia, the laws of Austria govern this Agreement; 3) in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, the laws of Finland govern this Agreement; 4) in Canada, the laws in the Province of Ontario govern this Agreement; 5) in the United Kingdom, the laws of England govern this agreement; and 6) in the United States and Puerto Rico, and the People's Republic of China, the laws of the State of New York govern this Agreement.
